Examples from the Bible.

The late lamented Bishop Kavanaugh,
of the Methodist church, who was as
ugly as eloquent and as jolly as good
never tired of telling stories about his
distinguished but unfortunate friend,
Tom Marshall, Of Kentucky. The two
men were warm personal friends, not
withstanding the striking antithesis OF
character and the not less striking diff
ference In personal appearance. Mar
shall was handsome and commanding.
The bishop was anything but hand
some; he was about as trim as a barrel
and graceful as sack of sab. This ex-
PLANTATION is necessary for a proper ap-
probation of what follows, but when
the great divine used to tell the story
he would bring out the application by
incidentally stroking the wealth of
shapelessness that hung to his person
like the i'll fitting garments he wore.
One calm June evening the bishop
was disturbed by noise in the direc-
ton of the barn. He CROPPED his way
thither and found Marshall in the hay
loft, where he had sought shelter and

was escorted to the best room in the
bishops house and induced to go to bed
in civilized fashion. Between prodigious
efforts to get of his clothes, his brain
and tongue partially recovered their
cunning, and he said:
"Kav, do you know why you and ]
make good illustration Of Bible his
toryY"
The bishop replied as he would 70 a

well" said Marshall reverently and
pathetically, 1.-The Saviour was without
where to lay his head That's me. Then,
in the beginning, the Bible says, the
world was without form and void"
And surveying critically the bishops
pudgy stature, he finished with moro
vehemence than romance:
by the gods, that's you!'-Gslveston

A Little Girl with Two Faces.

| heard a strange thing the other day,
says a writer in The Examiner. 1t was OF
a little girl who had two faces, When she
is dressed upin her best clothes, when some
friends are expected TO come TO tea, or
when she is going out with her mother to
call on some neighbors, she looks so bright
and sweet and good that you would ike 10
kiss her. With a nice white dress on, and
perhaps blue sash and pretty little shoes,
she expects her mothers friends will say:
What a little darlingv' or, "W hat asweet
face, let me kiss it" And so she always
has nice smile on her face, and when she
is spoken to she says, Yes, ma'am, mo.
ma'am," when she ought, and Thank
you very sweetIy. when anything IS
given her
But, do you know, when she Is alone
with her mother aud no company is ex-
pected, she does not look at all Ike the
same little girl. If she cannot have what
she would Ike, or do just what she wishes,
she will pout and scream and cry, and no
one would ever think of kissing her then
/ also know little girl who has only one
face, which is always as sweet as peach,
and never sweeter than when she Is st
home and her mother wants her TO be as
useful as she can and help her. think
need scarcely ask you which Of these little
girls you like best. or which OF them you
would most like 10 resemble

TOPEKA'S HASHERIES.

Business in Topeka has been unusually
dull this season in its special line-hash-
cries. They have failed for some reason to
get the usual number of conventions to
meet with them. 1t seems that their
Board of Trade has taken up the matter,
and as usual Jim Troutman, who runs a
hotel, can always be depended upon to call
n state temperance rally. So call has
been issued by the Board of Trade, at
least it comes from the Board of Trade
rooms, for an annual rally, which makes
about the second or third one this year
But then hash won't keep forever.
