GUAR ON PRIVATE CARD-PLA Y
ERS.n

The above is the caption an article
recently published in Western pa
per, in which it was stated that when
the circuit court convened in criminal
session at Lexington, Mo-, Judge John
E. Ryland, in making his charge to
the grand jury, ordered them specially
to investigate reports that games of
cards for money, known as progress
i've euchre and high five, were in
dulged in at private residences. He
ordered the grand jury to return in
dictments against all card players, no
matter how high in social position
they might be. He also told them
not to discriminate in regard to sex,
and declared that he wanted the
breaking of the law stopped.
How would the guests at places of
summer resort fare If the war against
progressive euchre should become
general? This is favorite pastime at
such places, INDUCED in by nearly all
the guests, many of whom are mem
bers of Christian churches. 1t is true,

LINCOLN AND THE KITTENS.

President Lincoln was as sensitive
to external impressions as the test
paper of the chemist. The results of a
battle panied him as though he him
self were among the wounded or had
lost brave son. This sympathy
that is, his power of putting himself
in another's extended even to
animals.
The day on which Grants army be-
gan the final advance, the President
sat in small telegraph Office at City
Point, receiving kilograms and ex-
amining a pocket chart. Three little
kittens were running about the hut,
in which was the Office. The Presi-
dent of the nation, whose fate was in
the scales, picked up the kittens,
placed them on the table, and said
'sYou poor little miserable crea-
lures, what brought you in this camp
of warriors? Where is your mother?
seThe mother is dead answered the
colonel in charge.
"Then she can't grieve for them,"
said the President, with sigh, las
many poor mother is grieving for
the son who has fallen in battle. All,
kitties, thank God you are cats, and
can't understand this terrible strife

do for you Colonel, get them good
milk, and don't let them starve.

on in this land, anyhow. Let us miti-
gate it when we can CAM
The great President, even at such
crisis, could, as Admiral Porter says,
esfind time to look at Gods creatures,
and be solicitious for their comfort.o

SOME SAGE ADVICE TO 4 NEWLY
MARRIED MAN.

Dear Carl:-It is to be presumed
that you have chosen wife after ma
ture reflection, and not alone from
selfish impulses. Nevertheless, do
not imagine that you can possibly
have foreseen all the duties, respon-
sibiljties and even trials to which
married life may render you liable.
In your intimate relationship and
companionship you and your wife will
appear to each other in an entirely
new light. You will find defects in
her and she in you, which can only be
properly met by one course, and that
is mutual Cancellation. Strive to see
which can exercise the greatest len
iency toward each other. The secret
of happiness in married life is mutual
confidence Trust one another. Have
no secrets from one another. By all
means never call third party to in
terfere in any way in any family jars.
You will be more than human if you
and your wife can always perfectly
agree; but while you cannot prevent
OIIOIVucSS, you cdiI pAOFOhO SSIiy wi
consequences arising from them. Ii
you have trouble keep it to yourself
and wife. Compromise will secure
you fndoubted happiness. By all
means never allow quarrel to last
over night There is mischief in brood
ing and pouting. Don't be ashamed
by yielding when you are in the right.
There is no sacrifice or self-denial
in yielding only when you are in the
wrong. You must consult your wife's
whims and caprices as we'll as her
reasonable desires. Mankind is gen
EARLY governed by the passions, not
by reason. There is no excuse for
trampling upon a wife's desires be-
cause you think them unreasonable.
Women have at times the privilege of
being unreasonable.

HOW TO READ MEN.

Those learned in palmistry and kim
dred sciences tell us that when we
grasp a so to speak, homeless hand, a
hand which appears to crumple in
your own, a hand with no apparent
vitality in it, to beware of the owner,
hand is only possessed by an honest
man. They also assert that thick,
hard hand is a sure sign of obstinacy
and conceit in its owner. They tell
you that long fingered, double jointed
people cannot be sincere if they try.
@Another authority advises: If you
want to know what sort of a person
you are examine your nose critically
in the glass. People of fearless dis
position breathe fully and freely. All
the fercer animals have dilated nos
trils. The dropping nostril shows
histrionic talent. If the nose also
droops it denotes a tragic power, and
if only the nostril, the capacity is
marked for the Interpretation of COM
edy. Where the nose is thin at the
bridge it shows generosity, while a
nose that is thick at the bridge ar
CUES inquisitiveness. When it is 'Stip
tilted like the petal of fower'' the
person is inquisitive. A projecting
nose argues a disposition to investi-
gate. 1t is ahead of the person, as it
were, and wants to scent out every

A GRIEF THAT TORE HER HEART.

The first girl was telling her friend
all about the funeral. She put her
handkerchief to her eyes occasionally
as she spoke, and it was plain that
she was deeply affected.
sPoor Julia is dead,u she said slow
ly, "and to-day I went to her funeral.
Oh! it was the loveliest funeral | ever
saw. There were nineteen lovely
hacks and lovely hearse, all trimmed
with lovely plumes, that nodded in
the sad winds just lovely"
She wiped away falling tear and
went on: 'sI went in the house with a
great many misgivings. l was afraid
should be overcome, for Julia was
one of the best friends I ever had.
She had such a lovely character
Well, the house was thronged. Ev
erything was just lovely. Poor Julia
was laid out in lovely coffin, all COW
cred with lovely roses, and there was,
besides, the loveliest collection of
crosses and crowns on the floor. The
preacher preached a lovely sermon,
telling all about what a lovely char
acter the girl had, of her lovely tenn
per, and of the lovely angels who
would lovingly welcome her through
the golden gates. Excuse me while
dry these flowing tears"
She dried.
EBut it was when / came to look at
the dear face of the dead girl that l
was most overcome. Her hair was
smoothed down in a lovely bang, just
as | used to know her in life. Her
complexion was lovely and white, for,
you know, she suffered dreadfully,
and was bleached to the loveliest
white tint ever saw. And | could
not help thinking, as L gazed upon
my dead friends dead face, if she
could only get up and look in the
glass and note her lovely complexion
in death, the terrors of the dark jour
ney might well be frightened for her.
A lovely bunch of roses held in her
hand made her look true TO life"
Here the rising flow of grief came
back again. The dog on the mat
arose, walked around the room three
times, and then laid down and died.
But no one seemed to notice it.

prizes are substituted for money, but
is the example thus set by protesting
Christians a good one, worthy the i'm
itation of the young?
At a summer resort in Virginia last
season, the guests, with two or three
exceptions, we're engaged in pro
gressive euchre. The writer met
young lady promenading the veranda
alone, and inquired why she had not
joined the party. She answered:
formerly participated in the game,
did not realize that it was wrong. But
I have been thinking about it, and
have concluded that such games are
at least of questionable propriety and
intend to abstain from them in the flu
ture." AS the young lady was only
about sixteen years of age, and had
been brought up in the South among
society people, the reply evinced SO
unusual degree of conscientiousness
as fully to merit the warm .commenda-
ton that it received Church Union.
