Did Jacob Lie d?

A good story is told Of a shipowner
of Liverpool, Quaker named Jacob,
who prided himself on his honesty.
He would not have told downright
talsehood to save the value of his best
craft. Jacob suffered one of his best
ships to set sail from Calcutta for home
without any insurance upon either yes
sci or cargo. At length he became I'M
easy. He was confident his ship had
encountered bad weather, and be feared
for her safety. In this strait he went to
his friend Isaac. He called him
"Friend, )" though Isaac was one Of the
children of Israel. Friend Isaac" he
said. Il would like for thee to insure
my ship, which is at sea. lshould have
done it before, but have carelessly neg
lected it. If thee canst have the policy
signed all ready for delivery ats o'clock
on the afternoon of tomorrow, | will
send and get it, and send thee the
money in full" Isaac did not seem to
be anxious to insure the ship; but, be-
ing told that no unfavorable intelligence
had been heard from her, he said he
would have the policy made out to take
effect on and after o'clock of the fol-
lowing day, but to cover the ship and
cargo from leaving India. Early on the
following morning Jacob received a
message by the hand Of a captain just
arrived, to the effect that his ship was
stranded and her cargo lost. This was
very unfortunate. Should Friend Isaac
happen to hear the news before the
policy was made out, he would not make
it out at ali; or, if it was made out and
not signed, he would not sign it. What
was to be done? Jacob wanted to act
honestly. 1t would not be right to let
Isaac go on and make out the policy in
such circumstances.
Finally he bit upon plan. He sum-
moned his confidential clerk and said:
Tell Friend Isaac that | have heard
from my ship, and if the policy is not
signed he need not sign it." The clock
was close upon the hour of ) when
the clerk arrived at Isaac's office.
Friend Jacobs message was delivered;
the ship had been heard from, andlf the
policy was not signed he need not sign
1t. Il think | am in season to save it,
the clerk said. ono, SIR" answered
Isaac promptly and emphatically. In
been signed, for the insurer had been
sage he Judged at once that the ship
was safe, and that Jacob sought to save
the heavy item of premium he had
agreed to pay. "No, SIR" he said,
you are not in time. 1t is past 8
o'clock, the policy is signed; l will go
and get it." He slipped out and hastily
finished and signed the policy, and,
having dried the ink, he brought the
document to the clerk, demanding in
return the sum which had been agreed
upon. The money was paid and the
policy was taken home to Friend Jacob,
who received it very gladly. The end
can be readily Observation-Disclosures

The EXcretOIY Organs.

The eXCretOry organs consist OF the
lungs, the kidneys, and the skin, The
lungs remove the CarbOnic acid from
the blood, the kidneys take the uric
acid from the blood, and the skin re-
moves the surplus water and at the
same time assists the lungs in rem0V-
ing the carbOniC acid. Now if the
skin be suddenly chilled, the small
pores through which the water has
been OOzing are suddenly closed. The
work is then thrown upon the lungs,
and kidneys. If large portion Of the
skin is thus affected, the kidneys re-
fuse to perform their Office, and, in
common language, "the cold settles;
upon the kidneys, "and heresultis tbaS
all the work Of purifying the blood has
to be done by the lungs, and if this is
prolonged for any length of time they
break down, and the result is pneu-
mOnia or pleurisy, and, under certain
conditions, consumption. REDS GER

their work. Get this remedy Of any

4. Young Maine Sampson,
Lemont NJ. LeavItt was born in ]

LemOnt NJ. LeavItt was born in June,
1885, IN the old town of Turner. About
the first thing Lemont began to do after
he opened his eyes and uttered his
first cry was to grow. His strength In
creased daily, and when 5 years old his
skill with the axe attracted much at
tention. He would chop more wood
then half of the hired men could, and
his services were much sought by young
men in the neighborhood, who were
too lazy to do their own chores on the
farm.
Last summer the youthful giant ten
dered genuine surprise 10 his parents
and neighbors. A party Of men were
building wire fence near by. A pole
was run through the center of a very
large coil of wire, and everything was in
readiness to unwind it, when it was
found that 3 man expected to assist
could not get there. Master Leavitt
happened along, and, taking in the
situation, picked up one end Of the pole
on his shoulder and marched off, keep
ing step with the man who held the
other end in his arms only by the great
est eXertlOn, while the man behind hung
on to the wire while it was being I'M
coiled. Thus for nearly half mile did
this 6-year-old Samson bear the burden
that would have made many a full
developed man shrink
Just think of not 7 years old, yet
Master Leavitt tips the scales at 1857
pounds in a light suit. He is active,
both physically and mentally, and the
Gazette is willing to back him as being
the handsomest and strongest bow of
his age in Christendom.-Aubu Co.

COrned Beef and Cabbage

great favor, may [ have little corned
beef and cabbage?' why, certainly I
replied. But shall / not send
it to you out in the dining
room" No. he answered. iii
eat it right here, if you let me sit
down at this table, So | cleared away
place on the rough board table, where
the cooks had been fixing the meat,
drew him up stool, and the way he
got away with that corned beef and cab
bage made my eyes bulge. When he
had finished he laid down his knife and
fork with a funny sigh of satisfaction,
put ore hand on my shoulder, and said
Young man, | suppose you don't care
for that at all, but if you had had to eat
what | have for the last few months it
would taste like dinner for the gods
The poor old elbow had dined with every
one from the Queen down, and that
cabbage in my kitchen did him more
good than all the rest together"

Why are the mountains darkened,
And wet, as if with tears?
Is 1t the sword of the north wind
Or the rains long flight Of spears?
Neither the winds that smite them
Nor the rains incrssant She'd
1t is the constant presence
Of Charon and the dead!
Before him he drives the young men,
Behind he dragS the old,
And seated on his saddle
The children he doth hold.
The old men supplicate HIM,
Their hands the young men wiring,
"Oh, halt beside some village,
Beside some flowing spring.
"That the old may quench their thirst there
The young the discus throw,
And the children pluck the flowers
That on the margin grow"
But Charon, smiling sternly,
Pursued his gloomy way;
~ halt beside no village,
And by no spring stay.
"For mothers coming for water
Would know the babes they bore
And their late lost wives the husbands
And none could part them more!"
So over the mountains Ch&ron,
With swift and silent tread,
Upon his black horse mounted
Compels the captive dead!
