a Laugh in Church.
From the London Amusing Journal.

She sat on tIa sliding cushion.
The deer. wee woman of four;
Her feet in their shiny slippers
lung dans ling over the floor.
She meant 10 be good; she had promised :
And so, with her big brown eyes
She stared at the meeting house windows.
And counted the crawling flies.
She looked far up at the preacher;
But she thought of the honey bees
Dreaming away in the blossoms
That whitened the cherry trees.
She thought of the broken basket,
Where curled III a dusky heap,
Three sleek, round puppies, with fringy
ears,
Lay Struggled and fast asleep.
Such soft warm bodies to cuddle
Such queer little hearts 10 beat.
Such swift, round tongues TO kiss
Such sprawlng, cushiony feet
She could feel in her clasping fingers
The touch of the satiny skin,
And a cold. wet nose exploring
The dimple under her chin
Then sudden ripple of laughter
Ran over the parted lips,
So quick that she could not catch it
Win her rosy finger tips.
The people whispered, BLESS the childt"
AS each one walked from a nap;
But the dear, Wee woman hid her face
For shame in her mothers lap.

Rumors Given as Facts.

Correspondents and reporters. in their
anxiety 20 put their respective papers
ahead o. their rivals in the matter Of
news. very often dignity mere rumo-s by
stating them as facts. The consequence
Of This practice is that the public is misin-
formed and misled in respect 20 very inn
portant matters
For instance. some Of the newspapers
last Thursday, m their Washington cor
re=roudcnce. stated that tine Vel known
New York banker j. pierpont Morgan
ana ar Lanier. had called upon the Pres
iient during the early part Of this week
and demanded that he should ask for the
RESIGNATION Of Air Carlisle. the Secretary
Of the Treasury because the Secretary
in urging congress to pass a banking anu
currency bill, had made it impossible for
them to sell for as much as the gave fer
them tho bonds they had recently pur-
chased from the government
on the face Of e this story seemed I'm
probable, for the reason that the Score
tary had taken 10 steps IN respect to
currency legislation that had not been
AH+AAe NkbA Bff'A ~ Allf it1AiAfltl. 7 IelA ANN
President approved all the Secretary did
relative To currency legislation was known
TO almost every intelligent man IN the
United States. 1t was not reasonable 20
suppose therefore that the President
would condemn tho Secretary Of the
Treasury for what had been done prac-
ticauy by his direction.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune, in speaking OF the
matter said that j. Pierpout Morgan. with
party Of friends. had stopped in
Washington on his way to Florida with
party of friends The corresponding. also
said that Mr. Morgan called az the White
House to pas his respects TO the Itesi-
dent ON New Years day. and that out Of
this visit grew rho rumor that Mr. Nor
gan went 20 the White House and jeman l.
ed Secretary Carlisles resignation.
As matter of fact it doesn't appear
that Mr.. Morgan saw the President at all
at the time stated. or at any Other time
recently The Sew York sun called upou
Mr.. Morgan IN New York on Wednes lay
and asked him if there was any Iruth IN
the statement that hc had called On the
President for the purpose of asking for
Secretary Cailiale's removal
Mr.. Morgan said there wasn't the least
truth I'm it-that he had not even seen the
President IN two years The very interest
ing story therefore, that eminent bankers
who were in he syndicate that tool, the
last batch Of government bonds are
working to bring about the removal Of
Mr.. Carlisle from the seeretaryship Of The
treasury must be laid on the shelf with

Value Of the Governments Credit.
From the New Orleans Picayune Dem )

From 1851 TO 1878 all business in the Uni
ted States was done with paper: bur the
government required customs duties 10 he
paid in sold. and all imported goods had
TO iFe paid for also in gold Then the
payer would take his greenbacks to a
banker and purchase gold. paying the
premium, whatever it might be- For a
long time $40 i'm currency was required to
purchase 500 in gold. and often the pre-
MUM was sreater and for 4 period twice
as much. The paper dollars were called
dollars; they had the term dollars" print
ed on them. but the fact was there all
the time that paper dollar was not as
good at soh dollar. The government
stamp could not bridge over the chasm In
the credit of the government. And this is
the law of all credit money. or money that
is not made Of material which is intrin-
scalY worth what the stamp on it calls
for. An ounce OF pure sold whether
stamped or unstamped. is worth Sa0.67
while an ounce of silver unstamped is
only worth haif of what it is when
stamped. Plainly, then, silver dollar.
intrinsically is worth half a dollar
and the government credit must make I'M
the other half Then. in order TO keep all
the credit money rs good as the intrinsic
money, IL is absolutely necessary that tho
credit Of the government shall not he
strained By any excessive issue of credit
money.
