KEEP ray HrART.
Extracts from P. 8, Knights Sunday
Morning Sermon.

With all that thou art keeping, keep
thy heart, for ont Of IL are the oBgoings
Of life, or as the regular version has ii,
"for out Of the heart ale the issues Of
life."
"Get." "hold," keep" were the
words used most 10y business men. By
the heart here was not meant the blood
pump that feeds the pulses, but the
very foundation Of our beiDg-tbe en-
tirety Of the man.
Keeping the heart is the paramount
question with the individual for the
salvation OF society. Self-preservstiou
was best achieved by seIf-sscrsfice,
which Is the highest law of nature.
We save ourselves when We give our
selves un-selfishly. The world needs
trained hearts more than skilled trains
or skilled hands. Skilled brsins or
ganiZed the sugar trust, corporation
frauds. sside which petty thefts of in-
,.ividuals shraUk iUto iusig;rficanes'.
Skill,d hauos organized strikes,
wrecked trains and burned property.
skilled braius and skilled hands we're
varring With each other.
The pruduct of skilled brains trem-
blet when the blind Sampson of Lsbor
arose in his might and shook the pil
lars Of their heather temples of wealth.
rraibed hearts were the need OF the
lour, the need of the future. The
training Of hearts, Bot hands and brsiDs
WAS the problem Of education.
The trained and preserved hesrts
we're the -alt that sloue could save the
tIrth. The speaker did n,t believe u
substituting the sentimental word
love" for The practical word charity"
either in the scripture or in the .Teia-
lions of men to their neighhors.
He who had pure heart and clean
hands before God, who hsd not lifted
mp his souIin vanity, nor sworn de-
ceitfuily wss the servant Of the Lcri
aud the true type Of society. To keep
the heart implied sll this.
1t wss easier for q man To travel 1
Thousand miles than TO come 10 hin
self. The prodigsl son wandered fsI
over lands and seas, until he came tO
himself Only the eyes Of love sud
penitenee could see the Father.
al would give all my fame" said
Rossini, the great musician, ''for one
sweet day OF rest and love" He ut
tered this pathetic sentiment upon
being complimented for his great tai
ents in the presence of Kings and
bishops. He had not Kept bis heart.
Many man Of rough appearance.
uncouth exterior and rude speech had
8 heart full Of pure gems Of affection
like the old ssilor's chest He hsG
sailed to all parts of the world, walked
on the golden shores and coral islands,
and gathered the precious stones, the
rainbow shells, the beauties of naturt
and kept them in the rude old chest,
opening its treasures only on rare &C
eaSions.

rae SOLDIERS BONE CoHalSslOs.

Editor Train, Of the Albany Herald,
sets Of his usual dignity on account Of
an innocent inquiry IN THE JOURNAL
81 Friday, a. whether the trustees Of
the Soldiers hnme were not taking per
diem under the guise Of expenses con-
trsTy to law. He resorts to personal
abuse when be should answer the fol-
lowing:
Is 1t not a fact that the Soldiers
home trustees Of which you are one,
are allowing themselves s. to $40 day
per diem, when the law says, they shall
receive no compensation, but actual ex-
penses incurred. See Sec. IS, session
laws 1898
Is it not fact that ynu as members
Of the board charge mileage when st
tending meetings of the board, when
as matter Of fact you ride on free
passes?
Is It not fact Mr.. Train that you
charge the sum Of s24 ~ tor each meet
ilg you attend 8; RHseburg. when your
actusl expenses. which by law won
would be entitled to would not be over
five dollars
The Herald SAYS THE JOURNAL edi-
tor is sn anarchist because he asked
whether the Herald editor was rot taxi
ing per diem as Soldiers hnme trustee
when the law forbids such compenss-
tion. The Grants Pass Courier makes
the same assertion and the Oregonisn
copies it today? Are thuse editors also
anarchists? There are liable TO be a
number of them among the Oregon
editors and more IN the legislature, if a
man who calls time on such salary
grsbbers is sn anarchist.

ing in after years. $s5S !.
In four years the girls graduated
from college, and all would have been
very pleasant, if it had not been for
one thing they had not heard from
their brother since the death Of their
parents. They had sent him many
letters but had received no answers,
and SO had lost all trace of him.
Grace married soon after her grad
uation; but after five happy years her
husband suddenly died. She and
her sister then moved to small town,
called Ellensburg, on the coast of
Oregon. .z
Here they made friends with an old
man who lived in a lit tie house near
the ocean, and who said his name
was "Bob'. He had no one to take
care of him and the 'girls," for wewill
call them girls yet, would often visit
the spot, take the old man provisions,
and try to cheer him up. When.
Christmas came, that most blessed
time of all the year, the girls plan
ned a dinner for Bob.
On Christmas Eve, when they took
over some things to him, he told them
he wished them to stay, as he had
something to tell them. He said he
had been living during the past years
as one in dream, not realizing what
was going on about him; but he now
thought he had walked up and could
tell them his story. He had gone to
work in mine when boy; had fallen
and injured his brain; and later had
come to live at Ellensburg.
The sisters became very much inter
ested in his story, as it seemed so
much like their brothers life. They
asked him to tell them more, but he
said he had forgotten all the rest
when he was hurt in the mine, "But,"
he said, II have an old pocket-book
which has some things in it that may
tell who I am" He brought out the
pocket-book and gave it to Grace,
who opened it eagerly. As she undid
an inside pocket, something dropped
out. Alice picked it up and uttered a
cry of joy, for there was the same
dollar that had been given to her bro
ther when he was year old. They |
had found their lost brother, whom
they had supposed to be dead, and
on Christmas Eve, too! You may
we'll imagine the Merry Christmas
these three had the next day. .Bob"
or Robert, as he was now called, was
taken to the girls home; and for the
rest of his life he enjoyed every com
fort and luxury money could give.

GOOD FOR G. P.
He is Appointed Register Of the
Marshall Land Office.

One of the very best appointments
that President Cleveland has made is
iIhat of Hon. G. P. Shepard, of this
city, to be Register of the Marshall
Land office. He is a gentleman
above reproach, and is splendidly
equipped for the position. The office
is at present held by LIN. Lainge,
also of this city. We are not advised
but presume MIR. Shepard will enter
upon his duties about March LIST.
While we dislike to see Mr.. Shepard
remove from Worthington the AD-
VANCE congratulates him upon his
success, and the best wishes go with
him and his family. Mr.. Shepard's
appointment is one of real merit.

A Christmas Story
lORIGINAL.I

In a small numbering town in
Washington lived the Harris fam
lily, consisting of the father, mother,
two girls who were twins, and a boy.
When the children's first birthday
came around, each received a small
gold dollar with his name engraved
upon it. These, their mother told them
afterward, were for them to keep as
membranes of their first birthdays.
When sixteen years had gone by, the
girls were sent to boarding school,
about two hundred miles from their
home. Their brother, who was about
