The world of bovs, especially, is
prone to sheer at the by who quotes
his mother and who is tied to her
apron string. He is generally con-
sidered a namby PANTY sort of fellow
who would not get his hands soiled
for the world, who never was known
to cheat at marbles, who 60 s
promptly to Sunday school, who never
goes swimming and gets his shirt on
wrong side out, who never plays
"hooky" and who is 50 "almighty
good" that it is wonder his wings
do not sprout. And sometimes the
boys are right, but not always. Some
of the ablest men that ever lived have
been boys who were devoted to their
mothers, and boy need not be a
'milksop" because be obeys her coun-
sci and does the things which makes
her happy. A boy may be merry and
full of the romping efervescence of
youth. And yet be manly enough to
recognize his best friend his mother.
Indeed a boy that fails to do so, may
develop into tough of no mean pro-
portions, and the day may come when
he will wish he had been more of
mothers boy and less of a thorough
bred in the race for fun.

At Johnsonburg, in Clarion
county, New York, there is a small
pox epidemic under way. The ma
jority of the people of Johnsonburg
are not very well informed, and they
are not well to do. They could not
cope with the smallpox epidemic
themselves and there was call for
doctors and nurses. In response to
this cal it was ascertained that doctors
could be had to attend The smallpox
patients for the price of thirty dollars a
day and nurses asked a proportienate
sum for their services. The situation
seemed to be hopeless. The charges
of the doctors were not perhaps too
high, inasmuch as to take care of the
smallpox patients means to give up
all other practice and professional in
come for a considerable period after
the income had ceased to come 10 from
the smallpox people. But how were
these poor Johnsonburg people to
pay any such sum. Then, one DR..
J. c. Murphy, stepped to the front.
He said he would go into the small pox
camp take care of the patients and stay
there until the last patient had re-
covered or was buried. He said that

he would take no pay for the service,
because in the first place, the people
had no money to pay with, and then
be was not taking the risk for money.
He was going into the smallpox camp
simply because it was essential that
some doctor should 60 at once and

SUNDAY THOUGHTS.

Truth Is the ultimate OF scientific
research.
TO give al and receive nothing
is not Christianity.
"A good cause does not need the
assistance of falsehOod.
Reason is a divine light that
shines In the souls of men.
"A mao with the wool pulled over
his eyes eyes won't see much.
Which is the worst. Christian
devil or a devil sh Christian?
The tears of earth will eventually
make the rain-bows of heave2
To make man superior to super
stition is the noblest work Of man.
TO keep yourself unspotied from
the world should be the aim of al.
Honor to some men is the fear they
have, of getting into the penitentiary.
The past should nourish the pres
ent and the present inspire the flu
ture.
The more trouble we meet with
in this world the happier we ought to
appear.
To recompense an injury with
justice is humanity reason aud COM
mon sense.
Young converts to any cause like
young bumble-bees, they are biggest
when they first hatch.
"A dignified person is one who is
afraid that the world will find out
they don't know it all.
Woman was the first to sin but
she atoned for all when she gave birth
10 the savior of the world.
-Formslity meets US in our in
fancy and leaves US only when the
withered leaves ofage begin to fail.
The one you love Is the sun
light of your exist, nee. If you'll
only keep your blood circulating as it
should you'll never have the blues.
The command "Seek and We
bend sfnded. lis t true significance is just
being grssped by the lovers of truth.
The winding paths that lead up
the rugged heights of human ambi-
tion are polished by the footsteps of
the great, who now have homes at
the top.
With fourteen hundred
mil ion people watching our
every action, is it not senseless
for US to attempt to deceive a scrut-
iniziOg world?
In the shadow of superstition the
miud of man has withered. If
you would wish it TO flourish, give it
the sunlight of truth and moisten it
with an undying love.
"A man who won't act on the
square with his fellow man, won't act
square with his wife. This being So,
why don't girls inquire into man s
manner of c1nducting his business be-
lore they make their choice!
"A good way to dispense with
trouble is to take it in your arms as
affectionstely as a mother would her
first born babe and there tenderly
care for it till the time shall come
when it will give nourishment to hap
piness that is to be.
Every leaf turned by scientific
research demonstrates that it is only
through honesty and fair dealing be-
tween man and man that humanity
can be brought into harmonious rela-
tions and the dawn of better, brighter, |
happier days for the down trodden of

Brunswick, Dec. 1.-THE building
known as the power-house was burned
tothe ground Wednesday evening. The
fire broke out about 0:30p. M. and in an
hour the building was d complete
wreck. The power-housc was one Of
the most important buildings in con-
nection with the new Baltimore and
Ohio ward AZ this point. II wasdivided
into two compartments. One side con-
tanned the boilers which furnished
power for the machinery and steam for
Nesting the buildings. Thesothe con-
taineda new Westinghouse engine and
Thomson-Huston electric-light plant.
The building was wooden structure
covered with corrugated iron and a
slate roof. A large cupola in the CEN
ter was the point where the Are broke
out. It is supposed that sparks from
the smokestack lodged here, and thus
started the fire. But twelve feet from
the power-house was the storehouse, a
large frame building, containing tanks
Of oil, waste and other railroad stores,
and only the coolest management on
the part Of the yard officials and the
strenuous efforts Of the men saved the
building. The company has made no
provision for fire here, but the best use
was made Of the means At hand.
Strings 81 men passed buckets Of water
along the caves and over the roof Of
the building. It was several times on
fire, but the men cheered each other,
and the building was saved. The
and its contents are a
complete loss, which will probably
amount to sl5, 1000 or $4,000.
