before her, and pretty near her, to SEE

there can be nothing better for daugh'
tcrs, and, indeed, for many wives, than
to take sole charge of small flower

Gratitude.

Would not the world he brighter il
more expression were given to the
feeling of Gratitude? 1t seems to be
or undigMiiicd to show by look and
word that one is Indebted to annother
for anything. \ kind act may be in
| terprctcd as mere matter of personal
duty on the part of him who does it,
but that does not nullfy the propriety
of some expression on the benefited to
show that he appreciates the kind
ness.
We suppose, however, that this is
not the view taken of benevolent acts
by those who ignore a grateful emo,
ton. They assume, we are inclined
to think, Il special privilege: that
they are entitled to what they get
from others, and there is no need ITO
make fuss' about things that are af-
ter all, commonplace.
| There is Il class of beggars met ey-
cry day on the street who stand with
head bent on one side, eyes patheti-
cally uplifted, and Il hand extended
with open palm. Whatever one
drops into that open palm IS received
with very slight movement OF the
rvclidS or Il tremor of the lip, while
the whole attitude remains unchang'
ed. These bcggars appeal 10y their
very posture to the benevolent, and
The coin dropped into the hand is but
Il response to the expression OF urgent
need artiStically depicted in face and
form.
But your average migrate, as met i'll
society, makes no appeal in this M
ported fashion his expectation is in
the nature of Il demand, and often the
4iit is received with an air OF condo,
Sccnsion. It's the giver who should
feel grateful that his kindness is ac-
ceptcd.
Really, it does not appear TO be un-
lrrstood that gratitude has something
in it OF cheer to both sides, and when
inccrcly and frankly expressed warns
;he whole mental being OF the benell-
riary. 1t is really one OF the most
wholesome Of human emotions. As
eXpres sscd by children its jOy-glVlng
influence is seen in marked degree,
and whoever recognizes its relation to
.unny, cheerful character knows how
its repression conduces to frigid, tacl-
turn mannerisms. :,
Then let us keep alive the mental
clements that enter into gratitude.
It j. not the manifestation of single
faculty, but Of several in combination,
and those in the higher range of hu-
man sentiment. No man or woman
$ so situated that occasion does not
offer daily for the expression OF graft
tudc, and its lack in any one can Oe
taken rs significant of defective cul-
lure in things that concern true hap
piness. .-Er.

Oriental Justice.

DR.. Henry NJ. Scudder relates case
of Oriental Justice that can not be out.
done for sharp and subtle discrimina'
iions even by Philadelphia jurist:
''Four men, partners in business,
bought some cotton bales. That the
rails might not destroy the cotton they
purchased cat. They agreed that
each Of the four should own 4 particu-
lar leg of the cat; and each adorned
with beads and other ornaments the
leg thus arportinned to him. The cat,
10y an accident, injured one of its legs.
The owner Of that member wound
about ii Il rag soaked in oil. The cat
going too near the fire set the rag on
fire, and, being in great pain, rushed
i'm among the cotton bales where she
was accustomed to hunt rats. The
cotton thereby took fire and Was burn
cd up. 1t was total loss. The three
other partners brought suit to rec"v-
or the value of the cotton against The
fourth partner who owned the parlicu.
lar leg of the cat.
"The Judge examined the case, and
decided thus: THE leg that had the
oil rag on it was hurt: the cat could
not use that leg. in fact, it held up that
leg, and ran with the other three legs.
The three unhurt legs, therefore, car
ricd the fire to the cotton, and are
alone culpablc. The injured leg is not
TO be blamed. The three partners who
owned the three legs with which the
cat ran to the cotton will pay the
whole value of the bales to the partner
who was the proprietor of the injured
leg n--INiSS. RCriCtr.

MAKE THEN UNCoMFORTAELE.-
The Treasury condensts the soundest
advice and the truest Gospel when ii
says:
"This phrase contains the advice
given to a young preacher by one who
had long served God successfully in Tn,
ministry of the God. His advice re-
ferrcd to sinners, and the advice
should be needed by every preacher.
There are probably too many who
prophesy smooth things and say
'pcace, peace to those who ARE living
in sin, regardless of the warnings OF
Gods law and neglccting the great sal
walton. Such persons are not likely
to be convinced of sin and rendered
uncomfortable in their sins by sucll
preaching. They need the trumpet oI
the law to be blown in their ears and
the terrors Of the Lord set in array be-
fore them, and the wrath to come un.
reservedlv proclaimed, that they may
be aroused from their sleep of death
and run like Bunyan's pilgrim from
the City Of Destruction"

They Say.

They say-Ah! well. suppose they do,
But can they prove the story true!
Suspicious may arise from naught
But malice. envy, want of thought,
Why count yourself among the "thcy"
Who whisper what they dare not say?
They say-But why Se tale rehearse
And help to make the matter worse?
No good can possibly accrue
From telling what may he untrue;
And Is il not 4 noblcr rlan
To speak OF all the best you can?
They say-Wcll rit should he so,
Why need you tell the tale OF woe:
Will il the bitter wrong redress,
Or make one pang of sorrow less?
Will IL the crring one restore
Penceforth 10 go and sin no morc?"
They say-oh! pause and look within,
See how thine heart inclineS to sin;
Watch. lest In dark Temptations hour.
Thou, too, should'st sink beneath It's pOwe
Pity the fraii, weep DER their fall,
But speak Of good or not at all.

IpS Nothing to Me.

"It's nothing to me-" the mother said,
81 have no fear that my boy will tread
The downward path OF sin and shame,
And crush my heart and darken his name
1t was something to her when her only son
From the path OF right was early won,
And madly cast in the flowing bowl,
A ruined body aud shipwrecked soul.
Twas something to him when in prison he
lay,
The victim of drink, life ebbing away,
AS he thought OF the wrotched child and vie,
And the m0urnful wreck of his wasted life.
"It's nothing to me-" the voter said.
The party's loss Is my greatest dread
Then ho gave his vote for the liquor trade,
Though hearts were crushed and drunkards
made.
It was something to him in after life,
When his daughter became n drunkardS wife.
And her hungry children cried for bread,
And trembled to hear their fathers tiead.

What Others Say.

The Detroit Free Press says: "a
thoroughly pernicious and un-Ameri-
can habit is that of "tipping." There
is no honest labor of which any man
need be ashamed when he earns a reg.
ular and recognized income and lives
upon it. Thus in his way the waiter,
the porter or other person occupying Il
position at service, has rs much right
To his own self-respcct and to that oI
the world as has the physician or the
bank cashier. That is, lie has this
right so long rs he does honest service
for honest pay. The moment, how
ever, that he permits himself to nc.
cept gratuities for doing his recognized
work he becomes mendicant and de-
grades both himself and his position.
Employers who arrange the wages OF
their men, with the understanding
that these are to be supplemented by
such contributions from the public. are
parties to this process Of depreciation,
and at the same time unjustlv place
upon the shoulders of their customers
the burdens of their own pay-rolls.
There is bright future for the railroad
manager or the hotel-kecpcr who will
pay his employees living wages and ah
solutely forbid the acceptance OF tips.
An experienced traveller esti mates the
porterage fee necessary 10 the making
of comfortable trip from Kansas
City to New York at s., which is -
too much.

A MONKEY HERo.-A nnbleman
had i favorite monkey, a large orang-
outang. This monkey was very much
attached TO his master, and to the baby
boy, who was the pet Of the whole
family. One day fire suddenly broke
out in n house, and everybody was
running here and there trying to put
it out, while the little boy in the nnr-
sery was almost forgotten and when
they thought of him the staircase was
in flames. What could be done?
AS they were looking up and won
dcring, large hairy hand and arm
opened the window; and presently
the monkey appeared with the baby
in his arms, and carefully climbed
down over the porch and brought the
child safely to his nurse. Nobody else
could have done it: for man can not
climb like monkey, and is not near
so strong.
You may imagine how the faithful
creature was praised and petted after
that. This is true story, and the
child that was saved was the young
Marquis of Kildare.

GAIN OF A FINE MORAL SENSE
1t is one thing to have Il sensitive COLI
science. 1t is quite another thing to
have fine moral sense. Many Il man
whose conscience is kccnly sensitive is
lacking in the moral sense. And this
fact it is that frequently causes 4 man
to be misunderstood by others, or to be
self-deceived, in the matter of his
moral conduct. He knows that he
wants to do right, and that he does rs
well as he knows how. Others know
that he is continually failing to do
right, and it seems to them that he al
so must perceive this. The trouble is
that while he conScientiously strives to
do right, he does not know what right
is. His conscience is keen, but his
moral sense mot so.

Why do so many Methodist sit bolt
upright during puplic prayer: 1t Is
neither scriptural nor reverelt attl-
tude. Some may be unable, from
physical iniirmiles, to kncel down,
but only such are eXcusable. Whether
the standing posture is in accord with
Bible percept or example, or not, it is
certainly far preferable to sitting. Get
on your feet, or else knccl down on
your knees. Let whole congregations
consider this. Talk over the subject.
Have meeting, if necessary, for the
purpose of considering it. Reach
some conclusion, and then all act in
harmony. In some eastern churches
the whole membership is expected TO
kneel during prayer, and persons not
members are expected to stand upon
their feet with their heads bowed,
ANY such plan is better than the lazy,
listiess, irreverent habit of sitting
still and staring the preacher in the
face while he is striving to lead the
church in holy interccssion.
