An old lawyer once told about case

An old Irishwoman sent for him in
great haste one day. She wanted him
to meet her in the criminal court. He
FASTENED to the court house all out of
breath. The woman's son was about to
be placed on trial for burglary When
the lawyer entered the court room the
old woman rushed up to him and in an
excited voice said:
"Mr. 3 Oh want We to git a con-
tinyance for me by Jimmie"
every well, madam" replied the law
yer. II will do so if l can, but it will
be necessary to present to the court
some grounds for a continuance. What
shall l say?"
"Shure, ye can jist tell the court OF
want continyance till OF can get a
better lawyer to try the case"
The lawyer nearly tainted when he
heard this, and after telling the woman
that she would have to get another law
yer to get the continuance he hurried
back to his office a very angry man. e

ABSOLUTELY PURE
The Apple as a Timber free.
ABSOLUTELY PURE

In some sections of this country the
apple tree is looked ON for its product
as a piece of timber. as well as q. fruit
producing article. Tor this reason the
old German fruit growers in the yfein-
ity of Philadelphia, always aimed to
get nice straight trunk to an apple
tree and train it up comparatively high
before allowing it to form a head. Mod
ems have supposed that the chief OBJ
ject to be gained by this method OF
training was in order to facilitate
blowing operations but the ultimate
end in having a good trunk for timber
purposes was not forgotten. In this
particular region, the wood was used
chiefly for shoemakers lasts-a bust
ness which, in the earlier history of
Philadelphia, did much to help the
trade of that famous manufacturing
center of population. The apple re-
gions have mostly disappeared from
that vicinity; but other sections of the
country seem to understand the value
Of apple tree wood. 1t is stated in the
Country Gentleman that a fruit grower
of Cayuga sold to a Weu-known firm of
Of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
& Sons-the trunks of some of their
trees, which were cut away because
the trees had grown too closely to-
gether, to the value of $500 In this
case, the wood was of course used for
the handle Of saws.-Meehan'S.
The Afro-American. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1892-1899, 1895-10-19

The Rev. Sydney Smith, in his celebrated
article on MethOdism. in the Edinburgh Re-
view says, among other things; "The
Methodists are always more desrOus of max
ing men more religious than it is possible,
from the constitution Of human nature, to
make them" Even should we grant that this
charge were true, we could not regard it as be-
ing very grave evil. The desire for making
men superlatively religious, or even extra
superIatively, must certainly be virtue. II
people in general ad this desire the world
would without doubt be a better place to live
in. We fear that, in these days at least, the
charge is not sufficiently true. Would that
there were a more eager desire on the part of
MethOdists to press men on to the extreme
limits Of Righteousness! What those limits are
we think it would be hard to define. We have
an idea that there has never been any one of
mortal men who has touched the topmOst round
OF conceivable attainment never anyone, ex-
cept Jesus, so good but that he might have
been a little better. Sidney Smith had an
apprehension that people would be driven
insane by too much piety. AS we look at the
matter, the danger is altogether on the
other side. At least nine times out Of ten it
Ig too little religion rather than too much
that renders people crazy. Our civilization
can safely stand very much larger infusion
of Methodism than it has at present. and
Methodism can safely stand very much
larger infusion of burning enthusiasm.

REACH INTO OTHER LIVES.

Every ones real life consists in his reach
into other lives Whoever is completely iso-

Whoever shares in the experiences Others
helps them to be tr~e and to make the best of
what they have, strengthens their faith in
God and love to men, lives and grows. Bear
ing one another's burdens is the law of Christ.

every man on his own things, but every man

where they went because they gave them
