I'm Only q Man.

am not Christian, I'm only man,
Cut out and made up on the every day plan;
No hope of a heaven, no fear of hell,
No creed and no dogma my actions impel.
You go to your duties and go to mine,
You pray for assistance and ask help Divine
To further your interests, your aims and your
pelf
/ stick to my duty and trust to myself.
The heart broken widow, with fast falling tears
You tell her of Jesus to soften her fears,
You tell her of heaven-but could you instead
Tell where she shall go for her next bit of bread?
The promise you read from that book may be
good,
But what, when the little ones cry for their
food?
Will it buy them loaf, viii it tighten her care,
To read of the unfulflled promises there?
win they be better angels-on earth without
money
In the land that flows freely with milk and with
honey,
With harps and with music, where streets are
gold paved,
If they die cold and hungry before they are
saved?
Of repentance religion and creeds that are old
You give but too freely-but hold to your gold;
You're done when you've looked to their "spirit-
ual needs
Though they need food and shelter more than
they need creeds.
When the weak, erring brother has fallen from
grace,
Cast him out from the fold! Shut the door in his
face!
He's too human for you, you too sanity fol
And you may all stone him-who are without
sin.
Ger the thresholds of church doors they pray fol
the poor,
For the sick and the helpless, the high and the
low,
| The widow, the orphan, the man bowed witt
| care,
| Are richly remembered-but only in prayer.
| We both meet a beggar, at night and alone
| His scant clothing threadbare, his feet on thu
stone,
You tell of your good church and ask him t.
| join,
| In his cold frozen fingers drop but coin,
| He murmurs his thanks in voice thick ant
| hard,
But the look in his eyes is sufficient reward;
| And say, as l notice the touch of his hand,
81 am not Christian, I'm only man.

Comfort i'm Sickness.

Since we cannot promise ourselves
constant health, let us endeavor at such
a temper as may be our best support in
the decay of it. URANUS has arrived at
that composure of soul, and wrought
himself up to such neglect of every
thing with which the generality OF
mind is enchanted, that nothing but
acute pains can give him disturbance;
and against these, too, he will tell his
intimate friends, he has secret which
gives him present ease. Uranius is SO
thoroughly persuaded Of another life,
and endeavors so sincerely to secure an
interest in it, that he looks upon pain
but as a quickening of his pace to
home where he shall be better provided
for than in his present apartment. In
stead of the melancholy views which
others are apt to give themselves, he
will tell you that he has forgot he is
mortal, nor will he think OF himself as
such. He thinks at the time of his
birth he entered into an eternal being,
and the short article of death, he will
not allow an interruption of life, since
that moment is not of half the duration
as is his ordinary sleep. Health to him
is more than pleasure to another man,
and sickness less affecting to him than
indisposition is to others.-RichGrd

A Sad Case of Ignorance.

A white gentleman ~ the other day,
was heard to remark as we entered a
train at the Northwestern depot, at
would be id good thing if we could
get the Jim Grow car up here for
darkies." We sat for near half an hour
trying to convince ourselves that this
fellow came from the South, but on in
quiry we learned that he was Milwau-
kee business man, and REPUBLICAN.
This fact settled all doubts, for we at
once saw that this cur was one of those
headed Republicans, who believes
the minute colored man divides his
vote, he should be Jim Crowed." We
are glad, however, that on closer con-
versation with this man (?) we learned
him to be the most ignorant white man
we ever met, and we have certainly met
some bad uns." His grammar showed
that he wasn't "in it," the minute he
opened his mouth, from an educational
standpoint, and as we left the train we
consoled ourselves with the question,
well, what can you expect from a hog
but a grunt? ?"

Disease in Vienna Bread.

The restaurant keepers of Vienna
have been in the habit of selling the
fancy bread of that town ON commits
sion. Instead of buying it from the
bakers they have sold it as agents,
returning what was left over to the
bakers. The latter are very skillful
in freshening up old rolls and send
ing them back again. When they
cannot be put into the first state
again they are sliced up, toasted on
both sides. and sold as twice baked"
or Zwieback or brOsel. 1t reaches
that state after passing through many
hands and being considerably battered
and bruised. A chemist who has
analyzed some shows that it accumu-
lates an enormous number of disease
germs. The bakers, to protect them
selves, have resolved that in future
they will not sell bread on commission
and that the restaurants must buy 1T
outright. Thereupon the restaurant
keepers accepted the situation and
appointed a committee to arrange for
treating their stale bread in precisely
the way it used to be treated by the
bakers.

A Mean Man.

Gigsley has often been told that he
was the meanest man in the world.
In fact, he has a red-headed sister
and couldn't well escape being told
so, but many Of his friends doubted
until he was married. They all be-
lieve it now. Mrs. Gigsley is one of
the dearest, loveliest, most innocent,
trusting, affectionate creatures that
ever longed for a strong, manly bo-
som to rest upon. They were mar
ried two weeks ago, and, as Gigsley
doesn't believe in wedding tours, they
began housekeeping Immediately out
on the avenue. The second day of
their welded bliss had passed, and
Gigsley had just finished the supper,
which Mrs. G. had spent all the long,
torrid afternoon in preparing, when
he took his hat and cane, kissed the
little woman tenderly, and started
out for the door. "Why, Charley,
you aren't going out, are your" said
the sweet creature, with a tremor in
her voice. "Why-yes," was the
rather unconcerned reply. "And
leave me all alone?" A suspicious
moisture of the eyes accompanied
this appeal "Oh, I won't be gone
long" he answered reassuringly. I'm
just going down town to get something
to eat"

Lucky Friday.

The notion that Friday is an un-
lucky day is the worst nonsense that
ever entered the human head. In
Chicago there are half dozen fami-
lies of Fridays, who have as good luck
as any other people, and in early
American history the day was pecu-
liarly lucky. Columbus sailed on Fri
day, Aug. 81. On Friday, Oct. IL, he
discovered land; on Friday, Jan. 4, he
started home to Spain; on Friday,
March 25, he reached Palos. In 1893
he discovered Hispaniola on his sec
ond voyage or Friday, Nov %, and
on Friday he discovered this conti-
nent. Any other country's history
will show as many lucky as unlucky
Fridays. What's in a manner"

The Democrats in the Black Belt of
Alabama want constitutional con ven
tion that they may be able to defran-
chise the negroes by the Mississippi
plan. The Huntsville Mercury, speak
ing for the white Democrats of Northern
Alabama, protests against this plan be-
cause the educational test would dis
franchise more white Democrats than
black Republicans in that section. The
Mobile Register gives the Northern Ala
bama Democrats the alternative of the
continuance of political power based
upon stuffed ballot box" if they re-
fuse this plan The Register is to be
commended for it's franknessin acknowl-

call this waving the bloody shirt. ="

ment of such reliable Democratic or

Walton at the Exposition.

It is proposed by special agent
of the United States Fish Commis-
sion, who is in charge of the angling
exhibit at the Worlds Fair, that the
three-hundredth anniversary of the
birth of Izaak Walton, whom En-
glish-speaking persons piscatorially
inclined have long heard of, shall be
celebrated at the Exposition. The
agent thinks that the celebration
should take the form of an angling
tournament which should be an eX-
bibitiUn of skill in casting artificial
flies and bait. The commissioner
desires also to have erected memo
rial building to Izaak Walton, to take
the form of reproduction of Wal
| ton and W0tfdHs mouse on the @Tsil1TTef
Dove in England.
IZaak Walton was one Of those
gentle souls much heard of and
alluded to, an author of books on
angling that have great celebrity and
few readers. Izaak lived to green
old age. He was just 80 when he
took the bait dropped by death and
was landed in the Elysian fields.
His life was gentle and contempla-
tive, but he himself said nothing so
much in praise of fishing as his friend
Sir Henry Wotton, whom he quotes
"a most dear lover and frequent prac-
ticer of the art Of angling, Of which
he would say, "Twas an en-
ployment for his idle time, which
was then not idly spent, rest to his
mind, a cheerer to his spirits, di-
Verter of sadness, a calmer of unquiet
thoughts, a moderator of passions,
prOcurer of contentedneSS;' and that
it begat habits Of peace and patience
In those that professed and practiced
it,"
1t is the lover of old books rather
than the lover of the fishing rod
who knows Izaak Walton, and pre-
else knowledge of his fame is confined,
therefore, to a small number of En-
glish readers. The fisherman to-day
would care very little about his advice
concerning the manner in which
bait should be attached to the hook,
as witness: "ThuS use your frog: Put
YOUR hoOk-I mean the arming wire
through his mouth and out at his
gills, and then with fine needle and
silk sew the upper part of his leg with
only one stitch to the arming wire OF
your hook, or tie the frogs leg above
the upper joint to the armed wire,
and in so doing use him as though
you loved him."
We don't fish that way nowadays,
and when we do impale frog, as is
sometimes done, we don't talk of
handling him as if we loved him.
This is a practical age.
Let us admit that Walton was "an
excellent angler and is now with
God" The words are his own. But
if we are to celebrate at Worlds
Fair the memory of a fisherman who
is known throughout Christianity,
not to the readers Of English litera-
ture alone but wherever the gospels
are disseminated, perhaps it would
be well that we take up st. Peter,
who had a double office-to spread
his nets for the tenants of the deep,
and, by the commission of the Savior,
a fisher Of men.

When in the southern part of the
United States, we noticed that hundreds
of young colored women, who desired
employment as domestics, could not
secure the same. We also notice that
up in this portion of the country and,
especially, here in Milwaukee, there is
a great demand for colored servant
girls. Any one desiring to obtain work

at o'clock at night at the Tuileries.
He himself had prescribed the ar
rangement of the room in which he
would receive him; it was the draw
ing-room next to the Kings study.
In one corner he had placed little
table, at which he sat; all the seats
had been taken away save some
couches which were at a considerable
distance from him. On the table
were various papers and an inkstand;
there was one solitary lamp The
chandelier had not been lighted

room; the distance he had to traverse
before reaching Bonaparte, whom he
could barely discern; the uncomfort-

sat down again; the necessity in
which M. Won Cobenzl found himself
of remaining standing-everything
combined straightway to put each
man in his place, or at least in that
particular place which the First
Consul had desired to assign to him"
