LANSING, MICH, Aug. s.-Rev. Freder-
lex Mayer, pastor Of the Evangelical church,
is a liberal-minded gentleman, but his con-
gregation was shocked this morning to hear
that he had been investing in lottery tick
cts, and dumfounded when they learned
further that he had bagged $1,000 in a
recent drawing.
Rev. Mayer is about q years old and
well educated. He says he bought the
ticket just as he would get married or take
any other hazardous step, and tn he was
overwhelmed when he disc )vered that he
had won big prize. He declares that he
can see nothing sinful in acquiring money
In this way, and he has put the money in a
bank until he finds a suitable investment.
On the other hand the church society sees
considerable harm in the transaction, and
there Is likely to be an early vacancy in the

NOW.

When you shall walk In pensive
mood
The happy paths we used to know,
And sweet and gentle thoughts in
trude,
And tender dreams Of long ago,
How will your wakened spirit bear
Its bitter pang, its bleak despair?
When in your heart as now IN mine,
Shall thr'b the pulse of slpepless
grief
Since nothing earthly or divine
In that dark hour can bring re-
lief
How will you monrn DER wasted
bliss
And that wild moment long for this?
The echo Of a silent word.
An exhalation Of the dew,
A lonely sight at midnight heard
In depth of some funeral yew-
These shall be more, in that black
day,
Than your true lover past away.
Then scorn no more the present
hour,
Nor crush the roses while they
bloom.
The best of time has only power
To hang a garland on a tomb;
And all that lasts when years are
sped
Is hopeless memory ol the dead:
- William Winter.

the lips there is yet sserat spring
in every breast that, ike the rock
in the wilderness, needs but to be
touched by the prophets wand-love
to gush forth in streams of living
purity. Though course and mean
the dress of the outer man, ther3 is
fine gold beneath, that bsnevolence
and kindness may bring to light.
God has placed star within every
breast; clouds and misss may envelop
1t, and shroud it now in gloom; but 1t
is still there, bright as ever, and may
yet be brought to view to shed halo
of beauty around.
Let it be the work, o Christian
and philanthropist, to develop the
hidden virtues of the deprayed being,
and with words of gentleness and
love to sOothe the troubled soul, and
bring the wandering spirit home to
truth.
