would probably result in bringing Missouri Pa

expectation, there was liberal covering OF shorts

PuSSy,S EScaDade,

Our cellrOom cat had an experience Monday
forenoon that will remain fresh in her memory
to the end of her days even though she should
live to their full her nine natural lives. On her
peregrin atoms among the cells one OF the up
per galleries she found pint oyster can that had
been opened and left nearly emptied by one of the
boys. 1t seems that puss has a fondness for cove
oysters and so she proceeds to help herself, but
there was 81 ght discrepancy in the size OF the
opening of the can and her head that BID fair to
thwart her appetite The bvalves were stuck to
the bottom of the can and, there being monkey
near to show her how to raL them out, she was
under the necessity Of forcing her head in through
the ragged OF ening do without the oysters.
Having no doubt heard the oft-repeated maxim
that "all things pOss BILE to those who try"
she tried. and succeeded in forcing her head into
the can. How long she remained quietly in that
position is not known. but certain it is that
lively racket was heard up above by the hall boys
on the floor below. All eyes were cast upward
when here it came, pussy cat and oyster can over
the edge of the gallery down through space, can
first cat next with tail streaming out behind like
the tail of falling kite. She landed safely

had really stopped falling she began try ng to
treat from that can by running backward, but
finding that the enemy kept in close pursuit
halted for a moment, then tried to charge through
it: next she started on a circle which narrowed
down until she was spinning around on her hind
legs like top: then she waltzed, schottished, and
danced an Irish reel ali the while beating me
on the with her forefeet. To have touched
her would have been as dangerous as to attempt
to pick up nest OF m I'D hornets active buzz

known to cats she last resort. sat down.
reached forward with her hindfeet. placing
against the edge of the can either de of her
head, braced her forefeet. and began pushing in a
fashion to remind one of a man tr, ing to hoist
plug hat that had been crushed down over his
head. This gave of the boys chance and he
grabbed the and gave it quick jerk. and
puss relieved from her predcament and no
little of her tresses. Did she faint? Nary faint;
but seeing she was in the company of gentlemen
she INN ed lately set about rearrangng her some
what dishevelled toilet.

Sunday Services.

Services were conducted by Rev. ]. H. Alberts.
The text of the sermon was taken from Genesis
iii: "a. and Revelations xxi: g The following is a
brief extract from his scourse:
Mans lost paradise has been the theme of every
age and every people; has been sung in ancient
Greece, on the banks of the Nile. and in every
land Why is it that men are always looking
backward to the past? We are told that the past
was much better than the present, and go
back in thought to Abraham and his people. and
to the garden of Eden. Our thoughts go backward
to our childhood's days when we knew nothing Of

Worth Remembering.
Nothing is impossible to a man that can
will.
Life has no earthly blessing like an earn
est friend.
We shall escape the uphill by never turn
ing back.
The secret of success is constantly to
purpose.
The noblest pity in the earth is that be-
slowed on sin.
Gods word never fails, though He seem
to tarry in its fulillment.
Ours is personal God who thinks about
us, and cares for us-each one of us.
Mans character is best indicated by his
charity and thOughtfulness.
Only just so much as comes from the
heart. will reach the heart of another.
The whole of being Christian is summed
up in the coming of Christ and staying with
Him.
Good thoughts are no better than dreams
unless they are executed. If you mean to
help another, do not dream it, do it NOW.

Cleanliness.

Ii the saying be true, and it cannot be
doubted. that ''cleanliness is next to godli-
ness" there are many. judging from appear
ances. far from being godly. l do not par
ticularly mean the inmates of the prison.
but people in general. Some say that clothes
make the man. In this there is much truth.
Clothes. at all events. mark the man.
By a persons dress we are. generally
speaking. enabled to form pretty accurate
estimate of his character as we'll as social
positiOn-nOt particularly by the worth,
style or cut, but by the condition as to
cleanliness. A close observer will find a
mans trade mark about his clothes, whether
they be expensive or cheap. his Sunday or
working suit. For example take the in.
mates of this institution. where we have no
choice and are all dressed pretty much alike,
while some have work at which it is impos-
sible to keep clean, yet it is easy to pick out
the sloven. Aside from the unavoidable
dirt. there is that about him which
stamps him from the neat ard tidy.
Uncleanliness in person or dress is mex
cu~able. Making all due allowance for the
ho'lOU oilu Ill WIlCu We IlOlU d
suit of stripes dirt adds not to their
beauty(?). 1t is surprising that such relics
of barbarlSm-stripes-h not long since
been abolished from institutions of this
nd. If people would but give this matter
due consideration. they could not but see
the great injury they are to those who are
compelled to wear them. HideOus and re-
pulsive in the sight of Others, they cannot
fail to have demoralizing effect upon the
wearer To lower and debase man in his
own as well as his fellow mars sight, to
crush his pride. destroy his manhood. de-
stroy the very marks of civilization and then
attempt to reform him is. in the opinion of
the writer. the height of absurdity.
1t may not be out of place to call the at
tentOn of some, who are particularly neat
in clothes, but who utterly neglect or forget
the teeth. This is a serious mistake. Den
lists tell us. that most people lose their
teeth through neglect The teeth should
be washed at least once day. If you have
no powder use soap. If tartar has COM
menced to form on the enamel. it can be re-
moved WITH powdered charcoal, applied
with cloth. Those of us who may yet
come in contact with boarding house steak
will find teeth very useful. besides there
is time mentioned i'm the Bible when
There shall be weeping and crashing Of
teeth" But what of the tOOthless? Pre-
sumable they will have to gum it. The
ophrastus must have had the teeth in view
when he wrote that 'SlOvenliness il a lazy
and beastly habit of mans own person
whereby he becomes so sOrdid as to be Of
fensive to those about him." Let a man
become careless about his surroundings, ill.,
different as to his associates. negligent in
his attire. uncleanly i'm habits. in a word,
let him undervalue and cheaper himself and
he enevitably retrOgrades. B.
