Yea, stranger. things has chan-oi o. her,
Lain't very long ago
eince this big town was nothin' but the rancl
We'called it Freedom Camp, and ev'ry sunda,
all the boys
Would meet in front of old BHrs tent and max,
sprecious noise.
there's nothin' makes our sort of men as happ,
din,
And with shout and crack of gun. we used &c
sail right in;
We'd fight and race. and try our strength till
half the night was spent.
And then we'd go, with curse and laugh, to drink
in old Bills tent.
rhe only one thet didn't drink, or carry on, e.
swear,
Was sickly, and they'd sent him here for Col.
He was a youngster only. but he made US ranch
Because he lookad so solemn when we acted
extra bad.
One Sunday night the noise eased up, and 500,
the camp was still,
As each one on us stood and watched the moon
rise DER the hill;
I don't know how it happened, but it looked SC
Thet ev'ry tough rsnchman dropped his voice
and stayed his ann
And then, before a move was made thet youns
ster, thar by me,
Began % sing 20 soft and clear my Faith
And in minute hats was of. and ev'ry head
bowed
As them old words rang true and sweet, and
softened up thet crowd
hadn't heard the sollum tune since I waA
young as him,
And suthin' swelled up in my throat. and then
my eyes got dim;
As he sung on, thought how brave he was thet
crowd to face
And SO took mighty breath and Joined him
with the base.
Then Denver Dick begun to sing and soon thu
whole rough crowd
Was shoutin' out that good old Gne IN voices
deep and loud;
We hadn't pretty voices and some didn't know
word,
But. strsnger. it was the grandest thing that
mortal ever heard.
and when the hymn was done we said good
night and went cur way,
And old Bills tent was pretty well deserted
from thet day;
For ey'ry sunday night we'd meet and sing
hymn or two,
Ind mixin hymns and rum, you see, Of course
would never do.
Yes, Stranger. things has changed out here,
We got our churches now.
And you could live here all your life and never
see row;
The good has drove the bad away, and all this
change. you see,
Is OWN to the chap thet sung, MY Faith Looks
up to Thee"

Cisar. without Any Poison.

In the fertile brain of Dr. S. Well
Mitchell was conceived some time
since the idea of an anti nicotine
cigar, which is now in great demand
among inNeterate smokers, says the
Philadelphia Record. The illustrious
neurolOgist numbers among his pa
tients many suffering from nervous
diseases, the result of excessive smOk-
ing. To these he was wont to say:
"You must. give up smoking alto
gether if you wish to regain your
health" The patients demurred.
The doctor admitted it was rather
hard. and began to look about for
some alternative plan. He felt that
II cigar could be manufactured from
which all or the greater portion Of
the nicotine were extracted the effect
upon the smoker would be practically
harmless. The idea was explained to
a welI-known local manufacturer who
at once had the cigars made after the
plan sug gested by DR.. Mitchell. The
Vuelta A aio tobacco, used for the
filler, and the Connecticut wrapper
are subjected to what is termed the
''double resweating" process. The
materials are placed in a steamroom
for four or five hours, after which
they are taken out and subjected to
natural drying for day or two
This operation Is thrice repeated,
after which the tobacco is considered
practically free of nicoti' ;. Many
prominent men have tabooed the
stronger brands of the new ciGaI
without prescription and through
choice The manufacturer estimate,
his sale for the first three months at
900 boxes

BE joyful.

In that magnificent anthem in
which the line recurs-"Be joyful,
be joyful, my heart ever joyful" lies
4 suggestive secret for all true living.
Despair and doubt and depression are
unhealthfui, are destructive of all
worthy work, are corrosive in their
effect upon character. The religious
significance of gladness is shown all
through the scriptures "Be glad IN
the Lord" We are told. "Rejoice
greatly" Lift up your hearts "
These are but familiar examples of a
multitude of similar expressions. De-
preston is such an enervating and
negative state as to be almost i'm

1Culties, hardships, even; obstacles
to overcome. What of them? Is
there not the triumph in overcoming?
Is it not they who overcome whose

should be exempt from the discipline

mount them; if the consequences OF
our faults aud fcllieS teach us to live
above such follies and faults in future
shall we not rejoice? Surely, one
is not in love with ones sins, neg
ligences, or ignorances, and the sooner
they are starved out, and driven out,
AMI purified, the letter. Sorrow, too
the loss of friends; the sorrow we
feel. and some times the most keenly,
through sympathy with the sorrows
of others, disaster and misfortune
all these come more or less into
every life with their varied discipline,
their varied aid What then? Lift
up your hearts. Rejoice in the Lord.
Let it all tend to the spiritualization
Of life. Not because one is safely
housed and sheltered from the storm,
but because he has achieved the
power Of living above the storm,
may he say, in the refrain of Buddha
and of the cowherd, in the beautiful
legend, "Rain on, o. cloud, rain onl''

A Prisoner saves the BaIHns Life.

A supposed criminal was arrested
the other day by policeman at Kel-
helm, In Bavaria, and was walking
along with his captor beside the
Danube, when suddenly he jumped
into the water. The weather had
been very severe, and there were
great blocks of floating ice stretch.
ing right across the stream. Spring
ing from block to block the prisoner
succeeded in gaining the opposite
bank followed at a distance by the
policeman. But the policeman was
less nimble, and he fell into the
swiftly flowing river. Here (remarks
the London Daily News) was a very
nice question Of casuistry. Ought
the man who was under arrest to
stand by and see fellow w-creature,
and even policeman, drowned, OF
ought he to risk his own life to save
him. with the prospect Of putting the
fetters once more upon himself? To
the credit of human nature, the
prisoner did not hesitate a moment.
He plunged in and brought the police.
man safely to dry land. Then it was
the turn Of the policeman to be gen.
erous. He offered to represent the
matter to the proper authorities with
a view to obtaining q life-sayinp
medal for his preserver. The latter,
however, did not see the matter quite
In the same light He claimed his lib
erty and the other agreed he had

marks for himself, dismissed him
with a blessing The fugitive ha:

NUMISMATlcS IN CHINA.
toms Collections OF Coins In tEe East G.
Back roo Years

: .eN FsoO
China is the paradise of the numis
matist. The collections of cash. &C
cording to Consul Edward Bedloe':
report to the State Department,
quoted bv the Philadelphia Bulletin,
{ are something marvellous They are
small coins of bronze. brass, copper.
or silver, ranging in intrinsic value
from l-20 of cent to % cents. The
oldest of these coins on record ap
peared about 2, 300 B. c. Over $780,
600 different kinds of cash are pre-.
served in collections Some are won
, derful examples of coinage. but most
of them are clumsy and coarse. The
numismatist can work all his life,
spend very little money and leave To
posterty thousands of coins Ali he
needs to do is to confine his work to
the collection OF cash, the small coins
in brass and bronze, whose value
ranges from l-l0th to l-14th Of a
cent. Their workmanship varies, but
is usually very good. Their shape
to day is like that of European coins
with the exception that through the
center Is square hole through which
the coins are strung together like
BEADS In the past, however, other
forms were employed, including the
square, triangle, heart, ellipse, shield,
key, sword, and spear. The number
OF kinds is simply immense. They
are referred to in the literature as far
back as 250 B. G. THE earliest that
l have heard Of" says Consul Bedloe,
'dates from the Ts'in dynasty which
ruled from 225 to POI r c. From
that time until to-day these useful
little coins have been used by every
monarch, no matter whether he was
an emperor of the entire country OF
king Of one Of the petty principalities
into which, from time to time, the
Chinese Empire was broken. There
have been over l, 200 occupants
of the various thrones, royal and i'm
perial. In addition to these regular
issues, If such they may be called,
there have been special issues from
time to time and also special local is
sues. A wealthy mandarin in Can
ton is said to have the finest collec-
tion extant, containing %, 900 speci-
mems of different kinds"
The cost increases as you 90 back

tury can be secured at their nominal
face value. Those Of the eighteenth
and seventeenth centuries bring from
cent to 10 cents each Those ofthe
Han dynasties, from 206 to 100 A. D..
bring 800 each when in fine state OF
preservation. These true antiques
are found in ancient tombs and ruins
Several hundred were discovered in
Annoy this year in digging a grave,
when the laborers broke into an old
tomb several feet below the surface
of the soil. The coins lay in pretty
.earthenware jar, and were encrusted
with p thin layer Of malachite that
here and there had been changed by
moisture into aZurite The coins
were sold by the lucky coolies in the
next twenty-four hours, and are said
to have brought 81 apiece, an i'm
