Talmage's Early Home.
From the Ladies' Home Journal.

From the Ladies' Home Joarnal.1
My mind runs back to one of
the best of early homes. Prayer like
a roof over it. Peace, like an atmos-
phere in it. Parents porsoni6cations
Of faith in trial and comfort in dark
hess. The two pillars of that earthly
home long ago crumbled into dust.
But shall l ever forget that early
home? Yes, when the flower torgets
the sun that warmed it. Yes, when
the mariner forgets the star that guild
ed him. Yes, when love has gone out
on the hearts altar and memory has
emptied its urn into forgetfulness.
Then the home of my childhood 1 will
forget thee; the family altar of faith
er's importantly and mothers ten
derness, the voices of affection, the
funerals of our dead father and moth
er with interlocked arms like inter-
twining branches OF trees making q
paternal arbor of peace and kindness
then [ will forget thee-then and
then only.
Gates of pearl, capstones of amey-
thysts, thrones of dominion do not stir
my soul 80 much as the thought of
home. Once there, let earthly sor-
rows howl like storms and roll like
seas. Home! Let thrones rot and
empires wither. Home! Let the
world die in earthquakes struggle and
be buried amid procession If planets
and dirge of atmospheres. Home
Let everlasting ages roll in irresistible
sweep. Home! No sorrow. No
crying. No tears. No death. But
home, sweet home, beautiful home,
everlasting home, home with each
othor, home with angels, home with
God.

Where superstitions Were verif

Where Superstitions Were Verified.
1t is one Of the superstitons of gambler that
he must relieve distress. Were the hand of in
digence and suffering extended thousand
times day he would be compelled to load it
with silver of his wealth but it is a popular
belief that vast losses would attend the free
hearted giver in case his money impaired in
charity was played against himself. There are
many stories in illustration of this.
Whitley Rupp. one time proprietor of pros
porous faro bank in Wichita, one afternoon
was descending the stairs which led to the lair
OF his particular tiger, when broken sport
named Bill Chenaut sought aims at his hands
Rupp was in good humor. His bank had piled
up the ingots the night before; he had just
eaten a comfortable dinuer and he paused long
enough to give Chenaut $50. Chenault an in
veterate gamester himself ate briefly and spar
ingly. and then fastened back to Rupp's bank
with the balance and began to play. Had the
dealers known the source of his wealth, they
would have barred him. Chenault won again
and again. He then divided his possessions
among several of his cronies looking on. There
was Tom Arnold, who now deals monte in FL
Paso Sam Arnold, who was subsequently shot
to death in Oklahoma City, and several others.
They blithely showed the money about Rupp's
layout in way TO insure the widest action. "
Never had such luck attended so dminutive
raid.
Rupp was absent only an hour aud thirty
minutes. He came back to his rooms, and as
soon as he discovered what was in progress,
with curses and maledictions, stopped the play
of Chenault and his coterie, not, however, until
they had rolled their bundle OF plumber up to
the neat outltoe Of S2700. His bad luck. in
voked by the treacherous turning of his gifts
against himself by tse unprincipled Chenaut,
never tagged or faltered In its stride until in
less than two months. Whitley Rupp, q loser of
over 81. 900. left Wichita ruined.

Although physician has as much right

some times neglect to enforce that right
the conduct of that Philadelphia student
who bullied poor woman for his pay, over
the dead body of her husband, for whom he
had not even attempted to do anything, was
positively brutal. Still more disreputable
was his conduct in breaking open child's
bank and taking out the fatherlesS little
ones boarded savings to satisfy his unjust
and exorbitant demand Of SO for merely
telling the sorrow-stricken women that her
husband was dead, which was probably
largely due to his dilstory manner of
answering the call. If there is any law in
