Sheriff Hare reports a serious misap-
~prehension In the minds Of SOM OF
the railroad subsidy donors which he
Thinks ought to be corrected. 1t seems
THAT the bdea has got abroad that Mr..
Hammond Is responsible for this years
lakes on these lands, and on this theo-
ry a number of our generous and public
spirited citizens have allowed their
subsidy taxes Ito become delinquent.
The fact appears Ito have been over
looked THAT under the covenant of
warrany against membranes, con-
itained In each one of the subsidy CON
veyances, the grantor or maker is per-
sonally liable for this years taxes. The
sheriff believes that II the matter were
properly understood these people would
come forward with their taxes and
save 1.-THE accumulation of any addition
al costs and penalties.

WALKING FOL HEALTH.

From "Have You Nervous Prostration9' in
Demorest's Magazine.
When there is no organic weak
ness which is aggravated by the
exertion, it is the easiest and pleas
ATTEST thing to walk right into
health. OF course, there is no vir-
tue in a dawdiing walk. The slow
and languid dragging of one foot
after the other, which some people
call walking, would tire an athlete (;
1t utterly exhausts a weak person,
and that is the reason why many
delicate people think they cannot
walk. To derive any benefit from
the exercise, 1t is necessary to walk
with light, elastic step, which swing
the weight of the body SO easily
from one leg to the other that its
weight 10 not felt, and which pro-
duces . healthy glow, showing that
the sluggish blood is stirred to action
in the most remote veins. This sort
of walking e~xhilerates the whole
body, gives tone to the nerves, and
produces just that sort Of healthfu
fatigue which encourages SOUND
Esstful sleep.

LESSONS.

1. The grandeur Of Samuel's character
is most conspicuous as we see him sink
ing self, as he abandons his life long
schemes, and sets up another man to be
the head of his nation.
2. Can we not have more sympathy for
poor old Eli now, as we see the SOM OF
Samuel turning aside after lucre, taking
brides, and perverting Judgment" 1t
takes more than external environments
to make a man. "Sometimes children
refuse to be trained"
2. While God charges Israel with re-
iecting him, in abandoning the theoc-
racy, and choosing a king to rule over
them; he allows them their own way and
helps them in the next best thing, by
selecting a man who most fully fill their
idea OF a king-a man OF magnificent ex-
terror.
4. Saul was hunting his fathers asses
and found a kingdom. So the way Of
promotion is in the line Of duty, however
humble.

KEPT BIS WORD.

From Harper's Round Table.
An examiner at Edinburgh Univer-
sity mad made himself obnoxious by
warning the students against putting
their haas on his desk. The univer.
sity in the Scottish capital is remark
able for a scarcity of cloak-rooms,
and in the excitement of examina-
tions hats are, or used to be-, flung
down anywhere.
The examiner announced one day
that II he ever found another hat on
fjs desk be would rip it up. The
next day no hats were laid there
when the students assembled. Pres.
emily, however, the examiner was
called out Of the room. Then some
naughty undergraduate slipped from
his seat, got the examiners own hat
and placed 1t on his desk. When the
examiner re-entered the hall every
eye was fixed upon him. He OBJ
servod the hat and q CLEAN of tri-
Hmph shot across his face.
HG entlemen," he said, 81 told you
What would hapr en- II this occurred
asein." Then he took his penknife
from his pocket, opened 1t, and
blandly cut his hat in Iieces, amidst
prolonged applause. What he said
when he discovered that he had de-
sttpyed his own hat the story does
say.

In our last lesson we witnessed the
miraculous overthrow of the Philistines
at Ebenezer in answer to Samuel's
prayer. Twenty years OF peace inter-
yened, and Samuel was now about seventy
years old. We nave only limitations as
to how he spent this period Of his life.
His home was still at Ramah where he
built an altar unto the Lord; but she
went from year to year in circuit to
Bethel, and Gilgal and Mizpah, and
judged Israel in all those places.n
He lived in a critical transitional
period In Jewish history, and by his
great character in the triple office Of
Judge, prophet, and perhaps, to a limited
extent, priest, he kept the disintegrating
tribes from utter dissolution. Mere
ritualism did not satisfy this great
reformer. He established schools Of the
prophets, and introduced psalms, cho-
ruses and musical Accomplishments to
stimulate genuine religious worship.
"Long before the rise OF Grecian poetry
or music the hills and valleys OF Pales-
tine echoed with lofty hymns, sung to
the notes OF many instruments"
As Samuel approached old g he
appointed his son Joel and Abiah to
assist him In the iudgeship at Beer.
