A Mothers Death.

A pitiful story comes from Cathlamet,
Wash: Last Monday evening Mrs.
Cardinell, living few miles out in the
country, went to the spring to get a
pail of water. While STOPPING over she
lost her balance and fell headlong into
the spring. The water was only about
two feet deep, but the hole was SO very
small that the woman was unable to
extricate herself. The children, who
had accompanied her, saw their mothers
predicament and grasped her feet and
tugged away with desperation, but they
did not possess strength equal to the oc-
casion, and after exhausting themselves,
they abandoned the attempt and dis
tractedly returned home, not knowing
what to do. Next morning the eldest
girl decided to walk to Cathlamet and
secure assistance. Alter trudging through
the deep snow some distance her
strength gave out, and becoming fright
ened she returned home. So from Mon
day until Saturday the three little ones
remained in the house, with the dead
body of their mothor a short distance
away. The cold provisions that were
left were soon exhausted, and not know
ing how to cook or provide for them.

The symptoms of catarrh are,

How true it is that kind words
produce their own image in mems souls,
and beautiful image it is. They
soothc and quiet and comfort the hearer
They shame him out of his sour. morose,
unkind feelings. Have you ever tried
it? When you find Il man as above
stated do you always apply the balm of
kind words, and thus heap Goals of fire
on his head, or are you influenced by
his sourerness and likewise manifest Il
mean and contemplate disposition.
Generally speaking, it is easier to ape
others than to do that which is good and
pure. Try being sweet with all the
race as you find them and see If it does
not sweeten your life tenfold.

The rugged mountain peaks and the
rushing stream beneath, form a picture
Of which we can never weary, a scene
which could have been planned by no
artist save One-the Maker of all
good and perfect things. The silence
of the night is incomprehensible in its
grandeur and significance, and our most
cxtravagant dreams can ne'er suggest
Jewels one half so gorgeous as those
which bedeck the skies when Natures
children are asleep. And thus it is on
every hand; we have been given for our
temporary dwelling place, aworld which
is full of matchless beauty and limitless
good. Yet many of us see it not with
our eyes, and close our hearts TO its
benefits.

When first we heard these words very oddly

While his faculties Of mind are ever busy

AS he thinketh in his heart, so is he"
Don't think that you are better than your
ncighbors on the street,
Nor cast naughty look on John or Lizzie.
But speak to them politely whore'or you
chance to meet.
AS he thinketh in his heart, so is he"
Don't criticise your brother but take him by
BE in deeds Of loving kindness ever busy,
Remember that the Savior was u meek and

Don't try, TO be christian and run your
neighbor down.
Don't keep the wagging tongue of Gossip
You will never be successful while you har-
Dor wicked thoughts.

Don't vent your spite and venom, sharper
than two edged sword,
Nor be as one OF Satan's foll'wcrs. busy.
But gird thyself, and buckle on the armor OF

AS he thinketh In his heart, so is he"
Are we better than our brotherP No but
then we oft forget,
That unity will make our burden easy.
For there never lived person but who his

And alleviate much suT'ring, pain and

Do ever to thy brother as you'd have him do

So much has been written and spoken
OF the value of good roads that it is
clearly every mans duty TO further the
good cause by every effort in his power
conducive to the end of making the
rOadways of America equal to those Of
Europe. A. p. Starton in an essay pre-
pared for the State Grange of Aptos,
Cal, says: mo man who thinks for
the benefit of himself, his neighbors or
his country can controvert the state
ment that we need better roads. The
discussion in regard to public roads,
looking to the improvement of all high
ways, is sure to continue until great
and permanent reform is secured One
great deterrine element has been the
fact that the farmers have turned their
attention to this matter more in the
abstract than the concrete. Had il
been otherwise, our country roads
would long ago have been rebuilt in ac-
cordance with system which would give
them scientific basis and scientific
snperstructure. Just as soon rs our
farmers determine that they must have
roads which can boast of all the modern
improvements, road reform will speedily
become an accomplished fact. 1t is no
longer necessary to argue that good
roads are important to a country, that
they constitute an immense agency in
the progress of civilization, or even
that they have distinct, an apprecia-
BILE, enconomic value. All OF this Is
accorded by men of intelligence"

The heinous crime Of Henry Smith, a
cOlored man of Texas, who caught a
little girl three and half years old
and after an attempted outrage, took
her by the feet and tore her into pieces,
was the cause of an atr0cious crime
which is dark spot on the civilization
of Texas. One shudders us he reads OF
the awful punishment which the negro
suffered at the hands OF the bowling,
bloOd-thirsty mob. The negro's crime
was one that would have justified the
law in inflicting the most severe punish
ment, but because Smith was such an
incarnate devil, the frantic mob was not
justified in tying him to stake and tor
turing him in the most cruel and hell
ish-like way conceivable by running red
hot irons into his eyes and into his body
from his feet up to his head and then
pouring kerosene oil over him and put
ting cotton seed hulls beneath him and
with a torch set the pyre on fire and
thus quickly end the awful scence. Not
being satisfied with what they had wit
messed, curiosity seekers. carried away
all that was'left Of the oremated negro,
even to the ashes. Civilization Is not
advancing very rapidly in some sections
Of the country. The enactment OF the
lynch law is almost a daily occurrence.

negroes were lynched In Virginia for

Why Thorghatton Hasa Holo Through 1t.
 Thorghatten, the famous Norwegian mountain, has a hole extending, entirely through it from one side to the other According to Norwegian legend this same Mount Thorghatten was once a hat and belonged to one Thorg, hence the name Thorghatten. It seems that in the mythical ages | giant and giantess fell violently in love with each other They were forced to part for time, but vowed that they would marry in the near future. Soon after. however, the tickle woman pledged her troth to an other This angered her giant lover to a degree unknown to modern men of smaller stature He was seventy miles from her when the elfs brought tho news; but, selecting q good arrow, he shot it in her direction.
 Now 1t happened that her brother, Thors, was standing in direct line of tho arrows flight IL went through his hat and skull, killing him instantly, and fell harmless at the feet of the faithless giantess She had the power of turning all objects into stone, and forthwith willed that her brothers hat become q stone monument to the tragedy The cruel lover was turned to stone where he sat astride his horse at Hestmando, and the giantess herself petrifed at Lecko The two latter objects have dis appeared, but Thorgs hat (Thorghatten) is still the object of many curious pill grimages.

 As soon as it was emptied he lifted it quickly, and hurried down the river bank, where he raised it. in an inverted position, over his head the rim resting on his shoulders and walked into the water, The bank was steep, and the water was soon up to his shoulders.

 The improyised diving bell answered its purpose excellently, supplying air for him to breathe until he emerged on tho home side of the river.
