are, alas, not a few who work not in the right direction. Look after the Sunday school and the church; give the pastor all possible encouragement and see to it that all members attend regularly. Rev W. W. Clarke of the First Methodist church spoke on ''The inspiration of the hour" The brethren who preceded had handled their subjects in a masterly way, leaving nothing for him to enlarge upon; and he would not long infringe upon the time of Father McNeille, who was to fol- low him. The followers of Christ are joining hand to hand. Evils come not from different opinions, but from quar- rellng about them. He was Methodist, an out and out Methodist. His remarks were witty and to the point and were we'll received, particularly his friendly reference to other churches. Rev R.G.S. McNeille of the South Congregational church spoke on "Elements of strength in new work" There is in every new work the possibility of assimilating all that is good in what has gone before. This has been wrought out in notable manner in the architectural arrangements of the church, the seats, and, indeed, the music, in which he recognized snatches from the opera of Fra Diavolo, with which he was familiar a quarter of a century ago. He found that this church was fully cognizant of the latest im- provements and this, he felt certain, was an element of strength. Another was the contributions of members received from other churches. A third was the unity always to be found in the newer churches. There is also the enthusiasm which accompanies work with sure and quick reward. "The Lord watch be- tween you and us, while we are separate T.. y,I, with singing, "Blest be the tie that binds,'' the pastor, Rev c. F. Prentiss, pronouncing the benedction. As the walls of the West End Congregational church were upreared for praising the name of the Lord and preaching the word of His truth, so may it ever stand, a faithful witness of the right against the wrong, monument to the loyalty of mems hearts to God!

The patient having these symptoms, or a portion of them, is suffering from nervous debility, caused by exhausted nervous vital ity from those eXcesscs and abuses which must inevitably gradually break down the nervous and physical system unless a proper strengthening and invgorating remedy is used to overcome the weakness and re-estab- fish health and strength.

Saved by His Wife's Ready Wit.
ICleveland Plain Dealer.

The Rev. DR.. Clinton Locke, the
popular, Episcopal clergyman OF Chi
cago, made bad break the other day,
but was helped out by the quick wit OF
his wife.
On the day in question he saw lady
about to call whom he was anxious not
to meet. So he said to his wife: "Now
I'm off, my dear. I'll run up stairs
and escape till she goes away"
After about an hour he quietly tip
toed to the stair landing and listened.
All was quiet below. Reassured, he
began to descend, and while doing so
he thoughtlessly but emphatically
called out over the baluster:
"Well, my dear, has that old bone
gone at last?"
The next instant a voice from below
caused the perspiration to bedew his
ministerial brow and rooted him to the
spot. There came a response which
sounded ineXpressibly sweet to him
lust then. It was the voice Of his wife,
who, with true womanly tact, replied:
ayes, darling, she went away over
an hour ago, but here is our good
friend, Mrs. Blank, whom I am sure
you want to meet"

Facts About a Venerable Goose.
from the KINGSTON Freeman. |

From the Kingston Freeman.
John Ray,an old all respected resi-
dent Of Croton Landing, and formerly
of Putnam County, says that while re-
siding in Putnam County he purchased
a goose Of one Isaac Hill, and that the
goose was 81 years old when he pur-
chased her for - cents. He kept her
for three years. Each year the goose
laid over 80 eggs, and the first year
raised II goslings, which fell over
a high wall in the creek and were
drowned. The second year she raised
- gosIings, and the third year 10 gos-
lings. He then sold her at the end of
the third year to one Amos Austin for
800. Mr.. Ray says to the best of his
knowledge and belief the goose is still
alive, making her s. years Old.

T From the -Athen;runl.

Twice Washington had to provide
FOR the training and education OF youth.
Faving married the widow Gusts, he
adopted her only son, John Gusts,
whom he coNfided to the care Of the
Rev. Jonathan Boucher. Mr.. Frederick
Locker-Lompson, grandson of Jona-
than Boucher, possesses a number OF
Washington's letters to that clergy
man. Washington's letters show his
ideal Of a cultivated gentleman Ut was
before the Revolution) to be one who
knows some little Greek and Latin
and has a thorough knowledge of
"Arithmetic. He is very particular
to have the youth taught to dance we'll,
and he must know French perfectly,
ignorance of that language having been
the defect in Washington's own educa-
ton which he felt most deeply through
his entire career, which, caused the
breaking pof his cabinet in l795, when
a fictitious translation Of French de-
spatch led to the fall of Randolph, his
Secretary of State. ''rhe study of Ge-
ometry," he writes Boucher, "and the
Mathematics with Que regard to the
limites of it, is equally advantageous.
The principles Of Philosophy, Moral,
Natural, &c, should think very de-
sirabie knowledge for Gentleman"
Young Custis was at this time Il.
Two years later, as the General was
consi iering to what college he should
be sent, the youth settled the question
by marrying Eleanor Calvert aged IT,
whose proximity to Mr.. Bouchers
house in Annapolis (Maryland) may
explain the clergyman's poor success
in trying to make the Generapsadopted
son q scholar. John Gusts died at -
of camp fever, caught at Yorktown, Va,
where he was Washington's aide dur
ing the siege of CORVALLIS. He left a
son, George Washington Parker Gusts,
fow whom the General hoped to do
what he would fain have done
for the other. At the age of l7Sthls
youth was at college in Annapolis, and
it is amusing to observe how ANXIOUS
the General had become about the
Young ladies of that town. The name
of the teacher to whom the letter was
addressed does not appear.

A fire in the Iron Ridge tunnel
on the N. P. compells the road to
send all it's through trains by way
Of Butte, 1t is probable that the
time will come when the Butte
route will become the main line of
the N. P. The Hpmestake or Butte
route is shorter than that by way
Of Mullan, and the money which
would be needed to make the Null
Ian route safe would be q good
starter for the proposed tunnel
bhree miles in length under the
Homestake pass. This tunnel
would settle the grade question for
ever and fix the Northern Pacific's
through line by way Of Butte. It
may be with possible reference to
this important work that a corps of
engineers in the employ of the Bur-
lington company has lately been at
work in the vicinity of the Home
stake pass.
The news is sent out from
Boise that Congressman Sweet will
not be candidate for o renomina-
zion for Congress, and that at the

his law practice. Mr., Sweet may
be a pretty good lawyer, but as a
congressman he has been dismal
failure. He is lost and unheard Of
in congress, although he was very
diligent in looking after department
business. There is a feeling in
Idaho that as we have only one
representative the state should bt
represented by man who woulc
be heard from at least once in tive
years.
