TAKE THE PAPERS.

Why don't you take the papers
They're the light of my delight
Except about election time,
And then / read for spite.

Why should you be afraid :
For cash thus paid is money lent
At interest four-fold paid.
Go, then. and take the papers,
And pay today, nor pay delay

As e'er you saw two stumps
And no phrenologists could find
A difference In their bumps.
One-takes the papers, aud his life
Is happier than a kings;
His children all can read and write,
And talk of men and things.
The other took no paper, and
While strolllng through the wood
A tree fell down and broke bis crown
And killed hlm-"very good. "
Had he been reading Of the news,
At home like neighbOr Jim,
I'll bet a cent that accident
Would not have happened him.
Why don't you take the papers
Nor from the printer sneak,
Because you borrow from bis boy
A paper every week.
For be who takes the paper.
And pays his bills when due.
Can live in peace with God and man.
And with the PRINTER, too.

He Took 1t Back.

The Emperor of Russia, when upon
a tour of inspection in his provinces,
passed the night in the simple hut of
toll-taker. Before retiring he was
pleased, as head of the church, to see
the old man take up his Bible and read
a chapter. "Do you read often, my
SOM" he asked. Yes, your Majesty
every day." How much of the Bible
have you read, my SOM" "During
the last year, the Old Testament aud
part of Matthew, your Majesty
Thinking to reward him, TIE car
placed five hundred roubles between
the leaves of the book of Mark on the
following morning, unknown to the
toll-keeper, whom be babe farewell.
Several months passed away, and the
emperor returned, upon second tour,
to the toll-taker's hut. Taking the
Bible in his hands, he was surprised to
find the five hundred roubles intact.
Again interrogating the toll-keeper as
to his diligence in reading, he received
an affirmative answer and the statement
that he had finished the chapters of
Luke. Lying, my son, is great
sim" replied his Majesty; "give me
the Bible till see." Opening the book,
he pointed to the money, which the man
had not seen. Thou hast not sought
the kingdom of God, my son. AS pun
ishment thou shalt also lose thy earthly
reward" And he placed the roubles
in his pocket. Exchange.

To Soldiers and Pensioners.

The time has come when every soldier with any
disability resulting from service in the army is en-
titled to pension and every invalid pensioner who
believes himself rated too low should apply for an
increase. No matter IL the claim has been rejected.
The present liberal construction of the pension laws
opens the door for the admission of thousands of
rejected claims Many widows and dependent rea-
tives of soldiers whose claims have been rejected

Prayer and Breakfast.

Some years ago, when the country
around Cincinnati was newer than it is
now, pious farmer was busy clearing
his land. He had number of hands
employed and was anxious to accom-
plish large amount of work while the
weather Was favorable. He called them
early, and went out with them before
breakfast was ready. A horn was blown
and they came in and ate and returned
to their work. The farmer had been
accustomed to have prayers every NOM
ing in his family. But to keep so many
men from chopping and log-rolling
while he read and prayed was more
than he could afford so Satan suggested
and the good man yielded. His pious
wife saw with grief that the family
altar was neglected, that her husband,
in haste to get rich, was departing from
God. She talked with him, she pleaded
with him, but in vain. At last she de-
termined to try another experiment.
The next morning the farmer aud his
men went out as usual to their work.
The sun began to climb up the sky, but
no breakfast horn was heard. They
grew hungry and looked anXiously
Np"oiuS tiRO hOuoO, tiCN ilotOhCN, Jul
still the expected summons did not
come. After waiting an hour or two
beyond the usual time, they went into
the house. No table was set, no coffee
boiling over the fire, no cook over or
before it. The good wife was knitting
quietly, with the Bible on her lap.
What does this mean?" cried the
husband; why isn't our breakfast
ready?" Il thought you were in such
hurry about your work that you hadn't
any time to eat it," Have time to eat
it! Do you think we can live without
eating?" " You can live without eat
ing AS well as without praying. The
spirit needs the bread of heaven as
much as the body needs the bread of
earth" " Well, well, +" said the farmer,
"get us some breakfast, and we will
have prayers every morning, no matter
how busy we are or how many work
men | have" She got the breakfast,
and he kept his word. The lesson was
IA good one and never forgotten.

Speaking to People.

Who in the world is that you're

her companion of the same sex and age
as they walked down one of the avenues
the other day. "That man? He is
the man that mends my shoes when
they need it," was the reply. Well,
said the first speaker, Il wouldn't
speak to him; don't think it's nice"
" And why not?" queried the other.
" He is kind, faithful, honest, hard
working man. never pass his window
but | see him on his bench working
away, and when / bow to him and give
him Good-morning,' he looks as pleased
as he can be. Why shouldn't | speak
to him?' " l never speak to that class
of people," said the other; they're

for them as much as he did for me,

they had high opinion. So the first

girls asked him: I" If you met Myers,

"And the boy who runs the elevator"

Well, yes; don't speak to Jones,
