Blast. from tn. Rams Horn.

1t is the gospel OF Christ, and not
human philosophy, that saves the soul.
II we have willingness to work for
Christ, We need never be unemployed.
II you don't believe that it is more
blessed to give than to receive. try it.
No matter what your situation in
life may be you can think and plan for
God.
When we get right ourselves it goes
long way toward making others
right
Whenever God takes anything away
from us 1t is only to give us more oil
Himself.
Some people believe themselves to
be religious because they are always
miserable.
Unless you do all you can to help
answer your own prayers you don't
pray much.
A dollar will buy great deal more
for grateful man than it will fo- a
stingy one.
No man is In condition to really
enjoy riches until he can be happy
without them.
1t is not what we give TO God but
what we keep from Him that makes
angels wonder.
The world never needed pure Holy
Ghost religion everywhere more than
it does now..--Ran's Horn.

A Novel Deer Hunt.

There are many ways OF hunting
large game in the West, but the most
novel and peculiar is found in recent
incident that occurred on Puget Sound.
The steamer San Juan left Seattle for
Sidney, carrying a good load Of pas
sengers, who were surprised, when
near Beams point, to observe young
doe swimming in the water. The
captain headed the vessel SO as to cut
the deer off from the land, and then
an exciting chase was indulged in, the
deer lodging about and the steamer
following. Finally the vessel was run
up close to the animal. and lasso
having been made from piece of
rope, skillful throw was made, the
moose settling down over the deer's
head. The boat was then headed for
the shore, towing the captured deer,
and beached, when the final dispatch
was given the frightened animal.
Doubtless this was exciting for the
people on board the steamer, but the
enjoyment of the poor animal could
not have been very great. For that
matter, however, no hunted beast can
be said to fully enter into the spirit OF
the sport, and this instance was no
more cruel than thousands of others.
There may come n time when God
creatures may be permitted to live on
His green footstool without becoming
the needless victim OF mans sport, bul
that time is not yet. Vest Shore.

tain.
Joseph H. Bishie, revenue collector
Of North Carolina, at one time was a
tobacco manufacturer, and what he
says about the weed is not at all pleas
ant Information to the smoker.
"Do you know what cigar con-
tains?" said Mr.. Bishie, to Chicago
reporter, as he took his memorandum
book from his pocket and read the fol-
lowing: valerie, acetic, butyric,
formic. proprionic, prussic and car
bolic acids. creosote, ammonia, sui
phureted hydrogen. pyridene, virtdine.
picoline. and rubidine.
'Isn't that enough to make man
stop smoking?" said the collector.
"All those acids are found in pure
cigar. What then must be found in
the adulterated article? Connoisseurs
imagine the little freckles that are
frequently seen on cigars indicate u
superior quality OF leaf. l want to
dispel that idea. The pure natural
leaf in its yellow hue is undoubtedly
the finest tobacco in the market. But
SO many accidents con3pire to render
the finest leaves scarce that even tho
natural leaf is initiated. Coarse leaves
are bleached by the use of chlorine to
the yellow color OF the natural leaf,
and sulphuric acid, properly diluted
will produce the little freckles you so
often see. So, don't ever be misled by
the freckled cigar.
"But the men who chew are in even
more danger of being poisoned than
those who smoke. The real nice plug,
with the pretty pieces of tin on it,
which look so inviting, is soaked with
all kinds OF vile stuff. know of a fac
tory where New England rum is used
to sprinkle the tobacco used to make
plug; another where Jamaica rum is
put on to flavor it. and another where
the rankest kind OF corn whisky is
used.
II know of u negro in our state who
drank u wineslassful OF a mixture of
Tonqua bean and wintergreen and died
a half-hour afterward. Blu. this same
stuff is used largely TO adulterate the
leaf that makes up tho plug tobacco.
tell you that almost the only
chemically pure tobacco is that
which the planter dries on his
own roof and cmokes in his pipe, after
crumbling it himself in his hands. But
the simplicity apparently don't please
the smokers. They prefer to be
poisoned.
During the time Mr.. Bisbie was CIV
ing the foregoing warning to smokers
he was putting away at cigar that
from its odor was simply execrable.
and the hotel clerk will swear that he
saw the South Carolinian take gen.
erous chow from huge plug half an
