A Bad Break.

A doctor, who was treating one of his
patients for a simple but tedious disorder,
found the man in such an irritable con-
dition that he began to cheer hin up.
But his words fell on deaf ears, for the
man had been housed up so long that he
was firmly convinced that his time had
come.
"Tut, tut said the doctor. I'll have
you round again in few days if you'll
keep quiet and take the medicine. Why,
man, l suffer from the same complaint
as you myself
There was look of compassion in the
patients eyes as he reached out the bot
tie and said;
'.In that case, doctor, do take some Of
this medicine you prescribed for me-"
The man had grown almost hopeful
under the influence of the doctors reas-
suring words, but his hopes were cruelty
dashed the next moment as the medical
man drew back from the bottle with a
shudder and replied, "No, thanks. -

Goa, Worth More Than Clothes.

Apropos of the way the coal barons
are grinding profits out Of the consumers
and propose still further to continue the
grinding process, little conversation
was heard last week at the Pennsylvania
railroad station in Jersey City that wa.
very pat. a young New York BUSINESS
man was at the station, waiting to meet
his mother, who lives with him here,
but had been down in Pennsylvania il.
one of the small towns of the coal
regions visiting relatives. The mother
arrived, and after the usual osculatory
greetings the son bethought himself O.
her baggage She went to the baggage
room with him and pointed out very
small trunk.
Il brought all the clothes ! took away
with me back in that" she said.
Brought back your clothes from
Pennsylvania exclaimed the young
man in tones of mock surprise and 9is-
tress. Brought clothes from Pennsyl-
yania to.New York! Why, in the name
of all that is sensible, mother dear, did
you not throw away your clothes and
bring your trunk back full of coal?-

present at the Jubilee garden party
given by her majesty at buckingham

ant-presumably there for the purpose
of looking after our wearing apparel,
sticks and umbrellas-picked it up.
While in the act of putting it in my

Something New in Shear. at Last

1t is not often that an apparently use
full innovation in the art of scissor OF
shear manufacture is heard of, and
doubtless for that reason we have be
come apt to consider these indispensable
adjuncts to civilization as probably un-
improv able instrum -nts. In a new kind
of shears which has been brought OF
the market by an ingenious mechan-
ician, the cutting blades are connected
by a capsule, in which a simple ieve.
movement, or the closing of the instru-
ment, causes the one blade to be drawn
under the other The lower cheek then
acts as support and the upper cheek
as a knife, which sewers the object on
the support. Compared with the ortho-
dox scissors much greater efficiency is
claimed for the new form of shears

The Meeting.

The protracted meeting in prog
ress ut the Methodist Church con.
tinues to grow more interesting at
almost every service. Several
have made professions of religion.
A great many seem unusually in.
terested, and have asked for the
prayers of the Church.
Rev. L. Il. Amis, the pastor, is
doing the preaching and has made
some grand efforts, and has en-.
deavored especially to wake up
the church.members who "are TAX.
ing their ease in Zion."
Rev. Mr.. Beville has given sew
eral Bible readings and interest.
ing talks, and performed other in
valuable work, in addition to his
untiring efforts in training the
choir, and leading in the singing
which is the best, probably, that
Savannah has ever had.
All our people should attend
these services and get the benefit
of them. People living in the
country should come in and hear
the singing and get shower of
the blessings of these services.
