To make this puzzle cut piece of stout
cardboard or thin wood into a rectangle
about 3 inches long and three-fourths of
an inch broad (see diagram Perforate it
with three holes, as in diagram. The end
holes should be only just large enough to
admit the passage of a piece of cotton pip
ing or Irvine. The central hole should be
large enough to admit at least six similar
pieces of piping without forcing the hole
Cut two hearts out of thick card board,
wood, cork or bone and perforate them
centrally. Then take piece of piping
about foot long. Pass "A loop through
the central hole of the cardboard or thin
wood and bring the ends through the loop
b. Thread one of the hearts on each end
and pass each through one of the small
holes and knot it, As shown in the diagram.
When doing It's, be careful that the Irvine
is not crossed, except in the manner indi-
Gated 1t will be seen that each heart is
now on one of the large depending loops of
piping The puzzle is to bring both hearts
onto the same loop. Sometimes the ends
of the piping are knotted on beads. This
has no advantage over simple knot, be-
yond giving the puzzle more finished APP
pearance. Sometimes large glass beads
(Which will not go through the central
hole) are used instead of hearts.

The MONUMENT ISOLATION. Amove-
ment was then inaugurated to raise funds
for suitable monument. committee was
appointed at the grand encampment of
the q. a. r. last year, the money was
raised, and the monument is now compet-
ed. 1t will he unveiled with impressive
ceremonies during the coming fall.
After the war many restricted organiza-
tions of veterans, such as the Society of the
Army of the Potomac, were formed, but it
was soon seen that what the veterans of
the north particularly desired was a ma
tional organization that should be open to
all soldiers who had fought under the stars
and stripes. The idea of such an organi-
cation suggested itself to DR.. Stephenson
and Chaplain W. j. Rutlcdgc of the Four
tcenth Illinois infantry. They planned
many of the details of the proposed order
and in March, 1866, met at Springfield,
Ills, to arrange IA ritual. At this meeting
the name Grand Army of the Republic
was decided upon, and on April g, 1866,
Major Stephenson, assisted by Captain
John 5. Phelps of the Thirty second Hi
nois infantry organized at Decatur the first
g. y. II. post. 1t was called Post of
Decatur, district of Macon, department of
Illinois" There were only ~ charter
members, and Major Stephenson was the
first commander of the department.
For time politics threatened to dis
rupt the infant order, but the veterans
wisely excluded all political questions, and
it continued to grow apace until at the
present time the total membership is about
400 900. Since the organization of the or
der nearly 49, GOO, 900 have been expended
by the different posts for the relief of I'M
fortunate comrades, soldiers widows and
orphans

A SUNDAY SCHOOL ON WHEELS.

in special cars has been done before, but the
American Sunday School unions gospel

ever been sent on an extensive tour de
voted to Sunday school work exclusively.
The car was constructed at a cost of S.

enthusiast who hides his light under

Car and will sell it ut cost. Two thousand
dollars have already been pledged toward
the purchase price and if the cars present
trip proves II success the Sunday school on
wheels will soon become the property of
the union.
The exterior of the car is like that of an
ordinary palace car, but the interior, al
though elegantly finished, is especially
planned for the work in hand. At one
end are n complete kitchen and pantry, and
the middle section is devoted to sleeping
compartments for the travelling evangel-

A farmer was once relating 10 a number
of gentlemen what wonderful echo he had
on his farm. They did not seem to believe
him, so the farmer told them to come to his
house on the morrow. The next day they
all came and the farmer told his servant to
hide in the hollow of a tree and repeat what
he said. When they arrived at the spot,
the farmer shouted aloud, Are you there,
Patg"
Yes, sure l am and have been waiting a
great while" was the startling reply.

Judges Of the supreme court, IL you give to
secular places the right TO be open on the
Sabbath day, you have to give, at the same
time, the right to all commercial establish
ments to be open, and to all mechanical es-
Establishments to be open. II it is right il the
one case, it is right in all the cases.
But we are told that they must get money
on Sabbath nights in order to pay the deficits
of the other nights OF the week. Now. in
answer to that say that If the men cannot
manage their amusements without breaking
the Lords day they had better all GO into
bankruptcy together. We will never surren-
der our Christian Sabbath for the purpose OF
helping these violatOrs to paythetr expenses.
Above nlI, my confidence is in the good hand
of God that has been over our cities since
their Foundation. But call this day upon
all those who befriend Christian principle,
and those who love our political freedom,
who stand In solii phalanx in this Thermo-
pylae of our American history, for l believe
as certainly as | stand here that the triumph
or overthrow of American institutions do"
pends upon this Sabbath contest.
Bring your voices, your pens, your print
ing presses and your pulpits in D the Lords
artillery corps for the defense OF our hoiy
day. To-day In your families and id your
Sabbath schools, recite, 'Rememoer me
sabbath day to keep 1t holy" Decree be-
fore high heaven that this war on your -e-
ligious rights and the cradles OF your chill
dren shall bring ignominiou5 defeat to tho
enemies of God and the public veal. FOR
those who die in the contest battling for the
right we shall chisel the epftaph, ''These are
they who came out of great tribuatIon AMI
had their robes washed AMI made white in
the blood of the Laub" But for that one
who shall prove in this moral crisis recreant
to God and the church that there shall be no
honorable eptaph. He shall not be worthy
even Of burial place in all this free land,
but the appropriate interment for such one
would be to carry out his remains and drop
them into the saa, where the lawless winds
which keep no Sabbath may gallop over the
grave of him who lived and died a traitor to
God tho church and the free institutions OF
America Long live the Christian Sabbath !
Perish forever all attempts to overthrow 1t !!
