RObbing God.

1t is not uncommon to hear persons
spoken of as wanting the earth" OF
this class are those who having six
days given them for earthly business
turn round and steal from the Lord his
day and rob it of all sacredness. This
story is told in The American MiSSiO
arg, showing how the disposition to
turn Sunday into "a week day " was re-
buked by a " mountain preacher"
A group of young men were assem-
bled near where tt ere had been preach
ing one Sunday, when the following
dialogue occurred:
"See here, John, why didn't we bring
up my rifle when ye come to preach
ing?"
"Well, Sam, Flowed twarn't right to
bring it up Sunday. l mought see a
warmth on the road and git shootin',
or you mought git shootin' and forgit
it was Sunday"
Huh! there's no use being so awfully
particular as all that. l think it's all
right to do little turns of a Sunday,
even little stootin' won't hurt ye if
We happen to see game"
The discussion was joine in on either
side by those around, and it was finally
decided to leave it to the preacher.
He was called and the case stated.
Look yer, boys,' said he, "sposen
man comes along here with seven
handsome gray bosses, a.ridin' one and
the others follerin'. You all like
pretty beast and you look 'em all over.
You can't see that one is better than
another, they are all as pretty critters
as ever were seen among the noun
tains, though there will be differences
in bosses, boys; when you come to
know 'em no two is alike. Well, that
man says, Here, boys, I'll jest give ye
six of these beasts for your own; and
he gets on the other and rides off.
suppose now you'd mount yer bosses
and ride after him and make him give
we the other boss, or at least make him
let We keep it till yer craps was all in."
Ono! we amt so ornary mean as
all that, preacher"
swell, thar, can't ye let the Lords
day alone?"
a blank look at the preacher and at
each other, then Sam broke out:
"You've freed US, preacher. John, |
am glad you didn't bring up that gun"

Caught Around the Campfire.

AS may be imagined, there were
many une xpected ard affecting meet
ings and recognitions of old comrades
among the battle SCARED veterans pres.
ent at the Grand Army reunion last sum-
mer, and there was a general compar-
ing of notes and rehearsing of old time
"reminiscences. On all sides were little
knots of the boys in blue talking over
the stirring events of the campaigns in
which they had been engaged. An in
terested group watched one of their
number as he sketched general plan
of the position of the Union army at
Fair Oaks on May 3, 1868, showing the
spot where he stood, and where Gen.
Grant sat on horseback smoking, when
cannon ball passing between them,
knocked the ashes off the end of the
generals cigar, who, without winking,
coolly blew the smoke from his mouth
and remarked, "Thanksl" This held
over until the camp chronologist
figured up the date, and announce
that Grant wasn't at Fair Oaks at ALL

"Reminiscences Of Grant.

The captain of an Indiana regiment
has recently been making public some
"reminiscences of Grant, in which there
is new anecdote of the great generals
way of doing things on the battlefield
In the fighting before Vcksburg the
command of General McGinnis was
drawn up behind entertainments in a
hollow at The foot of hill occupied by
10000 confederates. Grant rode up to
McGnnis and said: Will your men
go up that hill?" "They will 90
through hell, if necessary" was the re.
ply. "All right" said Grant, "they
will have chance 10 do it after a
while" The remark was made in a
matter fact way, and in few min
utes the order came to advance. 1t
was a worse assault in point of NOR
tally than that on the guns of Balak-
lava, for four-ffths of the advancing
Union columns went down in killed or
wounded, and after it was over Gener-
ais Hovey and McGinnis and Colonel
Spicely "cried like children" at the
loss of their men. But the sacrifice
saved thousands of other Union lives
and drew the enemy into a trap, put
ting the city at Grants mercy Kan

Making a Poor Impression.

Sometimes we meet one whom we
would gladly please and proceed at once
to put our worst foot forward-even
that upon which we most hopelessly do
limp. We contrive, by saturnalian aid,
to say precisely that which we would
wish unsaid, and to expose our weakest
side, even to weaken side that is nor
mally all right, during or 10 minutes
interview on some occasion when our
good genius has "gone out to see man. "
Afterward we think over what we said,
and our sarcastic "hind thought" brings
up brilliant or at least sensible things
that we might have said better than not
if they had come to us.-Boston Com

way TO the couch of death. She dis
missed the nurse and took her seat. After
awhile the boy opened his eyes, and she
held out a slice of the pumpkin pie.
He opened his mouth, and she broke
the pie into bits and fed him, weeping
quietly the while When the slice was
finished, his hollow eyes seemed to de-
YOUR her as he murmured, more"
She hesitated moment, and then
whispering God forgive mel" she gave
him second slice.
He closed his eyes, and she watched
him until he breathed regularly, and
then she quickly stole away. She felt
as a murderer must feel, but she could
not make up her mind to watch her VIC
tim dying.
AT home once more, the dear old lady
locked herself in her room.
Early the next morning those mules
again trotted briskly to the hospital.
The nurse reported that her patient
had slept quietly all night. While the
old lady looked anxiously down on his
wasted form, he opened his eyes and said
in strong voice, where's the other
section of that pumpkin pier
Collins were very scarce in the confed-
eracy, and the hospital steward congrat
ulated himself that the surgeon was mis-

How He Brought About Order.

A clergyman was annoyed by people
taking and giggling. He paused !,
looked at the disturbers and said: I"
am always afraid to reprove those who
misbehave, for this reason. Some years
since, as l was preaching, young man
who sat before me was constantly
laughing, talking and making uncouth
grimaces. paused and administered
a severe rebuke. After the close of the
services gentleman said to me, Sir,
you have made great mistake; that
young man was an IDIOT Since then L
have always been afraid to reprove
those who misbehave themselves in
chapel, lest should repeat that mis-
take and reprove another IDIOT" Dur
ing the rest of the service there was
good order.

Thoughts.

EVERY kindness done to others is a
step nearer to the life of Christ.-Deas
Stanley.
MAN never deceives himself so much
as when he attempts to deceive God
Caryl.
THE watchful Christian is one who
would not be over-surprised if he found
Christ coming at once; he would not
have something to do first, something
to get ready.-Nepman.
BLESSED are they who see the day of
glory, but more blessed are they who
contribute to its approach. Bishop
Seeker.
WE are too fond of our own will.
We want to be doing what we fancy
mighty things; but the great point is,
to do small things, when called to do
the m, in right spirit.-R. Cecil
