Cursing.

The wicked habit of cursing, which
the church lifts her voice to cry out
against, is an evil of a very serious
kind. And it is something that I'M
fortunately is too common among So
called Christians of every age and walk
in life.
Young children and gray-haired
men and women are guilty of this ir-
reverence toward sacred names. Rich
men and poor men, men who say they
have faith and men who have no faith,
all are addicted to the impious vice of
cursing.
Think how shocking it is to hear the
name of Him who so loved us that He
gave the last drop of His blood for us,
who literally poured out His life for
us think Of His Name brought into
the gutter Think of that Name,
(which was called by the angel with
awe, introduced into the lewd speech
Of the bar room, or called upon in
witness of the ribald jest Think of
gossiping women varying the monotony
of their unsavory discourse with ejacu-
lations filled with irreverence toward
God our Saviour
Go to the shops, to the mills, to the
business houses, and have your ears
offend and your soul grieved by the
injury done to the Holy Name. And
90 to the homes of Christian men and
woman-to the homes Of some of
you and listen! Hear the father and
the mother cursing each other and
their children. Hear them call upon
God to damn them, to strike them
dead, to hurl them to hell
Our duty is plain enough. If we
have the misfortune to be of those who
have contracted this vice of foul speak
ing, let us resolve now upon amend
ment, and impose upon ourselves some
suitable pennance for our crime.
If we are not ourselves the victim of
the habit, let us help others by our ex-
ample. Let us show our displeasure
on every occasion when bad language
is used. Let parents bring up their
children strictly, teaching them respect
for sacred names and the duty of rev.
erent prayer. And let us always by
internal acts of praise, give honor to
God whenever we hear His Name dis
honored among men, and thus do
something to abate the evil of this
horrible and all-pervading vice.

THE BOY NEXT DOOR.

Yells that brought to mind the savages
In his war paint, all alert,
Raids that oft recalled the ravage
OF some borderland expert
Hanging on to trees andI fences,
In his efforts Ito explore;
Startling to body's senses
Was the little boy next door.
If window pane was shattered,
Or missile cleaved the air,
If the streets 'repose was shattered
Heads out peeping everywhere
Little need for explanation,
All had happened oft before;
Mite of terror and vexation
Was that little boy next door.
Cats and dogs by intuition
Knew of his approach and fled;
Jaunty was the hats position
On his roguish, curly head,
AS with bearing independent
He would bound the crossings DER;
With good nature all Respondent
Was the little boy next door
Brave, chivalric and respectful
To the old who came his way
With sympathy regretful
Toward each beggar, day by day;
How the wild and tame were mingled
In his natures bounteous store
How my nerves were hourly tingled
By that little boy next door.
When at sunset, homeward walking,
Once | mi ssed the children's noise,
Marked their groups in whispers talking,
Leaving all their romping joys,
Saw the snow white ribbons streaming
From the house l stopped before
Tear drops on my cheeks were cleaning
For the little boy next door

such sounds ?" exclaimed Colby.
"But if we are so far from land"-
The other interrupted him.

such sounds ?" exclaimed Colby.
"But if we are so far from land"-
The other interrupted him.
"Look There's not bit of ice to
be seen, nor is there any current here
If we were in the bay there would be
both. | tell you we are on the lake
and drifting away from land every
moment before this wind. Your ears
have tricked you"
Norm was silenced. True, there
would be both current and floating
ice in the bay: neither was here. His
heart grew heavy and the cold seemed
more piercing. Would they never see
home again?
They drew close together and seated
themselves upon the ice, now no longer
soft, but frozen hard. What they
could do to keep alive should be done.
But the moments dragged and the
hours were leaden-winged, while the
intense frost, increasing as the night
grew older, seemed to numb their very
vitals.
Once indeed Colby became so over
powered with the drowziness that cold
brings as to propose sleep, even know
ing that sleep meant death; but his
companion by a desperate effort
aroused him, and then, attempting to
rest no longer, arm in arm they paced
their narrow ice raft, and fought away
the chill grip of king winter from their
hearts.
How long the night seemed How
terribly long! They tried to talk, but
their tongues were stiff; they could
hardly think; it was only possible to
continue the monotonous walk, turn
and walk by absolute force Of will.
Hope and fear were for the time dora
mant the two castaways were simply
waiting.
And for what? Morning.
Slowly, oh +! so slowly the black
night yielded to the gray dawn, and
the gray dawn to the cold white light
of day. The wind had ceased blowing
now, and over all the world hung a
thick mist, half hoar frost, which for a
time hid all surroundings as effectually
as had the darkness itself, but as the
day grew this cloudy veil was lifted
and the mystery of the night revealed.
White and haggard, with trembling
limbs and chattering teeth, with bodies
fairly encased in ice, with hands so
numb that feeling was gone, and eyes
so heavy that sight was dull and
blurred, Colby and Jerritt stood upon
their frozen raft and awaited the draw
ing of the curtain. And as it faded
into thin air this was what they saw:
On either hand barren waste of
shallow, half-frozen water above which
rose in places dry reeds and wild rice,
interpersed with rotten stumps and
muskrat houses; winding through the
centre a turbulent stream; not far
away the solid shore and a gnarled
and ancient beech-tree in a word,
it was letters swamp!
They had passed the night upon an
ice cake drifting up and down the
swamp, and stranded toward morning
within a rod of the shore. At any
time after the first flood had passed
they could have waded to dry land
without wetting their knees. Their
night of terror had only six inches of
water under it.

The Delegation Up Stairs.

One day when whole bus full of
us drove up to hotel in Lynchburg,
Va, the landlord remembered that he
had drummer from New York who
had been suffering terribly with tooth
ache for two or three days. He had
tried every remedy known to man, ex-
cept that of having it pulled, but moth
ing had availed him. He said he
hoped some one of us might be able to
suggest something and slowly added:
Gentlemen, | have heard that
sudden shock to a mans nervous sys-
TEN would sometimes cure the worst
case of toothache Can't you plan
something's"
Six or eight of us got together in
the reading room and it was finally
decided that man named Simms, who
turned out to be a patent medicine
advertiser, should go up and to the
room and startle the New Yorker. He
was to do it by claiming to have seen
despatch to the effect that his wife
had run away with another man. We
thought that ought to cure his tooth
ache if anything would.
GLOW big a man is he" asked the
delegate when ready to go up.
ooh, he's rather understood" replied
the landlord eff he should get up on
his ear, you can easily slam him all
over the ROOM"
The medicine man went up. We
followed and stood at the door to hear
the result. He found the New Yorker
groaning like sick horse and after
introducing himself, he said:
Sorry for you, old fellow, particu-
larly at this time, but l have bad news
for you"
"No~ exclaimed the other, sitting
up in bed.
"Be calm, old boy; it's about your
wife"
"Is she-she dead ?"
"Better for you if she was. She's
run away with street car conductor"
There was wild yell, followed by
several whoops and crash. Then the
medicine man fell into the hall and
wild figure dragged him up and down,
and mopped him around, and made
bear fodder Of him. 1t was five minu-
ties before we could get him off and get
his victim away. We carried the latter
into sample room, stretching him out
on the table and had sponged his face
for the third time, when he opened his
eyes
GLOW do you feel now ?" asked one
of the boys.
Queer. What's happened ?"
"You went in to see the New York
err"
"Oh, yes He had the toothache."
"He did and you kindly consented
to shock his mental system. 1t was
great success
81 cured it, did Il"
"You did"
"But great heavens feel of me look
at me ; keep on sponging! Pm nothing
but big splatter of Jelly! Boys, if |
die, and l hope 1 will, I'll haunt every
internal one Of you day and night I'M
til | drive you to hang yourselves with
your own suspenders

Reuben Started it.

1t was election day in town in
Tennessee, and while the crowd of men
ON the streets seemed good natured and
inclined to peace, there were several
old pioneers who shook their heads and
remarked that such a condition of
affairs BODIED no good. One old farmer
beckoned his son into public stairway
and said:
"Look a-here, Reuben, don't you
start no fuss round here to-day"
EUR why ?"
"Kase the man who starts fuss is
goin' to git chawed all to strings in no
time. The crowd is onery, Reuben"
"Haint | goin' to tell old Parke that
he stole our hogs ?" queried Rueben.
"No, sir. He'd breed fuss quicker
nor scat. You jist hold yerself level,
Reuben-mighty level"
Reuben promised to and then slanted
his hat on his ear and sailed out to
spit over his shoulder, hunt old Parke
up and call him hog thief. He had
scarcely got the words out of his mouth
when something hit him and he drop
ped and in less than two minutes there
was fighting for two blocks up and
down the street. Reube's old father
was in the bar of the hotel taking a
drink. The sounds of conflict brought
him out just as Reube crawled up the
hotel steps. He had broken nose, "a
broken jaw, a scalp wound, two black
eyes, a cut hand and was almost naked
as that you, Reube p shouted the
old man, as he bent down to get a
closer look.
Reube nodded his head.
"Found old Parke and called him a
hog thief, | reckon p
Another nod from Reuben.
"Well, | tole We, and durn We good

1t Is healthy sign to see the farmers
organizing as they are doing now. But
they must not permit designating men
to enter their organization for mercen-
ary purposes. The professional office
seeker should be set down upon severe
ly, and given to understand that he is
not wanted. It will not take the
farmers long to see who is their real
friends, II they will keep their eyes
open. The coming election will afford
the farmers splendid opportunity to
put into practice the teachings Of to-
day.-Vedette.
While driving last. Sunday Dick
Boomer met with what might have
been fatal accident. One Of the traces
came unlocked and the horses step
ping on 1t jerked 1t up over his back,
which frightened 1t, and it began to
kick. One Of the lines was kicked from
Mr.. Boomers hand and In endeav-
oring to stop the team with the remain
ing line they turned short, upsetting
the buggy and throwing Mr.. Boomer
into barbed wire fence. His clothes
were literally torn In rags, one side Of
his coat and vest being torn out, sus-
pender cut of and his underclothing
cut entirely through; and all without
receiving scratch. His escape from
serious injury was almost miraculous.
One Of the horses kicked him about
the leg, which, with few other slight
bruises, Is all the injury he received.
The team ran three or four miles before
they were caught, smashing the buggy
and severely cutting one Of the horses.
