A Yorkshire wohan's Peculiar Prayer for
Her Sick Husband.
The extent TO which the ordinary
services Of the church are understood
by the poor is not easy to determine
without special inquiry, and yet some
times the clergy come upon alarming
proofs that things are not quite so clear
as they suppose them to be. 1t Is not
so long ago since a Yorkshire incum-
bent, dwelling in valley where the
people are supposed to be particularly
long-headed, told me Of mournful ex-
perience which befell him when visiting
a sick parishioner. The Yorkshireman
was i'll, very i'll, but doggedly opposed
to spending a penny upon the doctor.
He had found he thought, more ex-
cellent way, and was accordingly con-
ducting, with very alarming result,
some experiments upon his con-
stitution. Excessive devotion to a
cheap but far from innocuous quack
medicine was fast bringing him TO q
state in which medical aid and the in
fallible pill would be alike superauous.
my dear Mrs. -" said the vicar to
his obstinate parishioner's wife, ''your
husband is really killing himself with
those pills. It's a case of suicides
downright SIM Eyes, sir,n replied
the fearful partner; II know it. and
many's the time I've prayed against II
in the church service" "In the church
servicePn said the vicar, little doubt

sickP" "0h, no, sir" was the reply

CHANGING to look up, / saw a face at the
gay window opposite. A more appro-
pirate head for that window could not
possibly have been imagined. 1t was
crowned with quantities Of erratic red
hair. The cheeks were glowing, the
lips full and red, and, though could
not see the color Of the eyes, they gave
me sense OF brightness. The gown,
turned away from the full throat, was
as blue as the Flemish pitcher, and at
the spot where its folds met CLEANED a
bunch OF the nasturtiums

bright glance my way, and blushed
to think how wan and weary Imust look

glance was all got, but that night,
walking down in the windy twilight it
haunted me wonderfully.

self-Respect and seIf.Esteem.

Self-respect ought to be counted pre-
cious by every person. No man ought
to forfeit his self-respect out OF regard
TO any human being. But let a man
beware lest he confound self-respect
with self-esteem. A man may refuse to
do right at the request Of another
simply because by changing his course
he would practically admit that his
opinions had been wrong on the subject
up to this time. Many man makes a
mistake at this point. 1t is better to
mortify ones self-esteem than to main
tain it at the cost OF continuing in a
wrong course. True self-respect would
prompt US to avoid being controlled bJ
our self-esteem; and It is often the case
that another mans judgment as to the
dictates of oue self-respect Is better
than our owns. s. Times.

Preparations are being made throughout the
country for the Forthcoming centennial celebra-

the day in the Northwest has issued the follow
in gbe nnrnose ., tb,. ,ornoonn. os,enr.t,on ia
to commemorate the adoption Of our National
Constitution of which the 30th of April 1889,
will be the one hundredth anniversary.
New York and Chicago-the one the CONNER
cial metropolis of the East, the other of the
West-have adopted measures for the proper
Observance OF the memorable day,
In Chicago 1t is proposed that there shall be
suspension of business, an assembling of cih-
zens in all the churches at as early an hour as
nine o'clock, for religious services of thanksgiv-
ing and praise to God after the manner Of our
forefathers to be followed by the gathering to-
gether in all of the public schools Of their hun

exercises addresses, and national music, and
for presentation to all the pupils of medals as
souvenirs of the patriotic occasion. Later In the

and finally the exhibition In the evening of fire.

The title of 4The Committee on General OBJ
servance of the Day Throughout the North
west" indicates its purpose, and this committee
is charged with the duty OF publishing a brief
outline of the proposed celebration, not to die
tate to other committees any special form, or
order OF celebration, but to propose inter-
change of views, to receive as well as to give
suggestions, If desired 1t were needless to
multiply words in extending cordial and fra
ternal invitation to our fellow-country-

letter day in our nations history; to
join, not in boastfulness, but in devout thankful
ness to the ruler of nations, for the prescience
OF our forefathers in devising that Constitution,
which for a hundred years has challenged the
ever increasing admiration of mankind, and also
for blessing the newborn nation with its first
President in the person of Washington, now the
worlds accepted type Of the dignity and probity
of the ioftiest manhood and most exalted pa
triotism.
Not alone in cities but also in the hamlet and
on the farm, let US raise our flags and voices
in honor OF the priceless heritage of our Consti-
tuition and our Washington. And above all let
our children, the young to whose charge the
destiny of the nation is soon to be confided, be
imbued with the intensest love of country and
their loyalty to it's proud memories and beloved
institutions be 30 enshrined in their hearts as
to insure the perpetuity of the republic.
