1t is seldom woman can be fou al
who has the courage to brutally mu; :
der an innocent mouse, but for a GER
tainty we have one in Phoebe. A few
days ago married lady found mouse
had fallen into wash boiler. With
trembling hands and with malice afore-
thought she gleefully carried the boiler
to bucket partly filled with water, and
carefully overturning the boiler dropped
the mouse into the water. With stick
she then stood at safe distance and
pushed the rodent repeatedly to the
bottom until the animal was drowned.

Quiet FORCES.

The mightiest forces are often the
most quiet in their work. One warm
spring day. will do more to foster yege-:
tation than can be accomplished by
months of wailing winds and hoYiing
tempests. A little seed, expanding in
the warmth of sunshine, has q lifting
power which is almost irresistible.
Vital energies take hold on eternal;
strength, spring from an unfailing.
fountain, and partake of the power
which dwells in their eternal source.
An idol temple had stood in India;
for many centuries, sound and nniD-
iured by the changes and ravages of
time. But birds few over it, and seeds;
were dropped amid the dust on the;
stone roof. These seeds terminating,
pushed their rootlets down into the.
crevices of the masonry, and grew.
and while the temple was draped with
their foliage, the little rootlets were
disintegrating the structure, until its
ruin seemed imminent. So the truth
of God sown in the hearts of men
takes root downward, and not only
brings forth fruit upward, but disinte-s
CRATES and subverts wrongs and errors
which had seemed almost beyond REM
edy.
We must have faith in the truth of
God, and SOW the seed. We cannot
tell whether it will prosper or not:
We cannot watch the seed, nor guar
antee its fruitfulness. Some falls by.
the wayside. Some dies on the rocks
Some is prey to the fowls of the air..
But some brings forth fruit, working
its roots down into humanity's deep
est recesses, and causing revolutions
which are none the less mighty be-.
cause they are accomplished in secret,
aud are only comprehended IN after
years.
The revelations of eternity will as
tonish many who will learn for the
first time how fruitful their humble
work has been. A quiet life well-
lived, g. quiet word fitly spoken, O.
cross endured, q hymn written, q song
sang, q cup of cold water given, 8
beaming smile lighting up some dis
consolate heart, all thes5 are among
the little things, the incalculable value
of which will only be seen in the reve-
lation of the great day of accounts
Then that which we call little may ap-
pear to be great. and forces which
have been deemed by US insignificant
and unworthy Of regard will be reck-
oned among the great and forming
powers that have ruled the world and
blessed and built up the church. Let
US each do our little work for God,
praying him to make it great with his
blessing, and let US be content to wait
till the day of eternity to see the rel
suits of the little we have done in thel
Masters name.-The Christian.

Principle and Feeling.
BY REV. It. N. GRIFFETH.

=
"Relieion is a matter of principle y
Yes, so it is; but principle ought to bel
set on fire with love. There may bel
.extravagances connected with revivalsI
of religion. Wesley was a calm, self
possessed kind of man, and yet UNDER
his quiet preaching, it is said, strong1
men would sometimes fall to the foor|
as though they were shot. He tried to
check all undue demonstrations, but
did not stop preaching the vital doe7
trines of Methodism because the Move-|
ment had a few drawbacks? If bel
had done so, God would have raised
up some one else to preach his gospel
of new era. God was not willing to|
stay this tidal wave of salvation bel
cause it may have had little foam up1
on its crest. Even a fanatic with q
heart full of love is 4 thousand miles
nearer heaven than a cold-hearted for
malist.
The gospel is not merely a cold, abb
stract creed, nor Il code of iron laws
nor Il system of forms Of ceremonies
What does God care for the frippery Of
forms and the child's play of empty
ceremonies? But it is the power OF
God unto salvation, enabling believers

MACON WANTS IT BAD.
Already the newspapers Of Macon are be-

This is natural because the road to Athens
would give that city both western and east
ern connection while the one TO Elberton
would only give an eastern outlet.
Macon can be relied on to help build the
line from the G. S. & f. 10 Athens via Rut-
