Whenever there is selfsnness there
Is sin.
The greatest Of all duties Is the
present one.
Every good man on earth IL pillar

Wherever there is sin Il Is sure TO

No man is good who behaves himself
simply because he has to.
The best answer you can make to
self-conceit is to hep still.
There are too many men who love to
preach but hate to practice.
Many there be who buy nothing with

No man can be truly brave who is
not seeking to be truly good.
For every fault we can point out In
others we have two of our own

The man who thinks that his sin
will never find him out makes a great
mistake

There are people who think their
neighbors houses need painting be-
cause they neglect to wash their own
windows.
Putting your enemy in the wrong In
the sight of men is the worst kind of
defeat, against which neither ihdeid-

Howling Terror.
He was a small boy travelling with
his father and mother on train, says
the Detroit Free Press, and the way
in which he war-whooped up and
down the car aisle made him a terror
to the other passengers.
.'Sit still" said his father in fog
horn voice, show can | hear myself
think when you're making such a
racket"
There, there, Johnny, deaf, yos

But the infant terror kicked and
cried and refused to keep one posi-
ton second at time.
I'D like to have the raisin' Of that
boy, just would" said a sharp-fea-
tured woman, who had her knitting
along.
Il wouldn't mind having hand in

garding the youngster with murder
in his eye.
"Sit still, Johnny, dear" said his
mother placidly, for the nine hun
dredth time.
"Why don't you call him JohnP He
might pay more attention to you
then" said his father GROSSLY.
Whats in a name?" asked the
mother, "by any other name he would
be our Johnny still"
Then for heavens sake give him
another NAME" retorted his pa, "for
he hasn't been still moment with
the one he has"
Then he plugged his ears with
cotton, while the other passengers
encored his last remark.

Vow then, youngster, shut up"
said Cameron brusquely. The
house doesn't belong to any Of us, nor

much right to it as anothcr-and that

can go downstairs, and there in the
housekeeper's room you'll find some
thing to eat-salmon, he added in a
whisper.
This ravishing prospect was too
much for poor Harry. His mouth
watered; his proper pride grew faint.
He seized Temple by the arm and
drew him persuasively towards the
staircase.
Come" whispered lie, land have
some dinner. Then you'll feel better

"Better!" interrupted Temple,
fiercely. Feel better! Never on
this side of the grave. We're all dis
graced, ruined. We shall never be
able to hold up our heads again"
But alas for poor human nature!
The sight OF piece of boiled sal
mon, of cucumber, of bottled
stout, a ham, and some slices of
boiled beef, all spread out on clean
white cloth on the table in

TO change TO light gray hue the

He stopped short in his long memo
logue. and stared blankly before him.
"Oh, here, this-this is the wrong
house, he cried at last hastily.
And he was stepping back on the
pavement outside when his brother,
saying quickly: "No, noi it's all
right. Come on" gave him a persua-
sive push, and shut the gate.
"But look! look therem stammered
Temple.
He pointed to the ground-noor win

which was inscribed in three-inch
capital letters of uneven shape, the
word:
"APARTMENTs."
"It's an idea of Cameron's, | eX-

voice.
But Temple was almost foaming at
the mouth. He dashed up the flight
of stone steps, he Numbered at the
door. he rang the bell as if his life
depended on it. The bell, however,
after the first deafening peal, sudden
ly ceased TO clapg. A moment later
the door was flung open, and Cam

his elder brother appeared inside.

pulling the bell like that?n he in
quired in the lowest and fiercest of
whispers, stamping his foot in panto-

"What the - do you mean by

He was trying to get to the dining

dred, who had run up on
tiptoe from the basement, turned the
key in the lock and then put it in his
pocket. 1t was clear that he in
tended to back Cameron up in his
most lawless acts.

Cameron.

with rage, "then I'll go and turn

"Oh, my dear fellow, go by al

change TO disquieting courtesy
"You will find them on the drawing

them back the tree guineas for the

paid in advance, but you won't find

Temple, with the horrible chill of az
unspoken fear at his heart.

Three Story business Block Burns This
Morning.
At o'clock this morning fire started
in the cellar OF tho three story brick
business block Of August Rohrey, COR
ner Clay and Fourth streets, Martins
Ferry, and before the department could
arrive on the scene it had such a start
that the building looked as though it
and number of frame dwellings,
which closely adjoined, would also burn;
The two store rooms were occupied
by Rohrey, as grocery, and Meadley *
Co., as dry goods store. The loss on
this building and contents alone will be
close on to s. 900. The fire department
was slow in getting out, and at $3.50
o'clock not u stream OF water had been
turned on. 1t looked then as though
several buildings adjoining would also
burn.
At $3.50 the fire was almost under
control, and the loss will not be over
1000.
