Opie Read not long ago had 0cca-
sion to make a trip through Ken
lucky, and on his return was asked
for some good story.
1" | can give youa story" said Mr..
Read. cit is about hog theft who
went by tho name of Tom. Nobody
ever caught Tom stealing hogs, but
there was firmly settled conviction
in the community that all the miss
ing pOrkerS were due to this cum
ming rascal. Notwithstanding the
general belief that Tom was the
thief, and for all the fact that all
kinds of schemes laid to entrap him,
the hogs continued year in and year
out to disappear, but Tom was never
caught.
"a prominent Judge and the
owner Of fine farm residing near
the town where Tom lived, was out
IN the yard one morning looking
over his stock when he noticed Tom
coming down the road. AS he Just
then chanced to be looking at his
hogs the sight of Tom naturally led
him to speculate upon the safety of
his stock.
'IIowdy, Tom,' said the judge.

swcred Tom. 'Deed an dey is,

promise me for sure that you will

a face as sober and as solemn as
the judge ever wore upon the bench,
'you's been mighty good fr'en of

They Didn't Vote.

/ The Colonel and stood talking i'm

pulled Off his cap and bowed, and
the Colonel qucried:
"Wcll, Uncle Moses, arc you go

"G0t your mind made up as to

Students Who - Moved"

Fifty years ago the faculty of
noted theological seminary an
nounced that by order Of the Gen
eral Assembly students must preach
their sermons, and not read them,
as no student would be allowed to
take his manuscript into the pulpit.
1t was the custom then for each
member of the Senior class to de-
liver, during the term, one discourse
for the criticism of his FELLOWSHIP
dents and the presiding professor.
1t happened that the first student
to preach after the PRONUNCIATION of
the rule was young man noted for
his self.cOnfidence and selfassertion ;
but to the surprise of all present,
his voice trembled as he gave out
his text, the absence of the manu-
script had made him fearful of fail
ure, Acts Xxx: 81: "But none of
these things move me-" Then there
was pause which indicated mental
confusion. "NOne of these things
move me-" he repeated with STAN
mering tongue, and again there was
a solemn pause. Gathering himself
for final effort, he shouted nerv-
ously, None Of these things move
me !" and stood, unable to utter an.
other word.
Pray, sir, what will move yOu?''
asked the Professor.
The young man moved rapidly
down the pulpit stairs, amid the
laughter of the students. The witty
question seemed cruel, but,it was the
cut of moral surgeon who knew
what he was about. From tina,
evening the student began to culti
vate humility.
The Presbyterian Banner tells OF
another theological student who was
also moved" by the pressure of ex
temporaneons discourse:
1t is said that the late Mr.. Spur
geon was in the habit of testing the
ability and selfpossessiOn of the
theological students under his care
and instruction by sending then
up into the pulpit with a sealed EN-
velope i'm their hands, containing th'
text OF the sermon or address eacl
one was to deliver on the spur o
the moment"
On one of these occasions the stu
dent, on opening the paper, foun'
this subject and directions givel
him: "Apply the story of Zaccheu
to your own circumstances and you
call to the ministry"
The student promptly delivere'
himself in the following way: "M.
brethren, the subject on which
have to address you to-day is com
parison between Iaccheus and m.
qualifications. Well, the first thin
we read about Xaccheus is that h
was small of stature; and l neVe
felt so small as i do now. In tn
second place, we read that he was u
tree, which is very much my pos
tion now. And, thirdly, we read tha
Zaccheus made haste to come down
, and in this I gladly and prompt
follow his exampIe."- YOUTHS Con

punishment is generally swift and

And the bluest skies arc bending in the

And the stars chime all together, and

But the wings Of faith can reach il,
ere the stormy day is done.
And behind the darkest shadows beams

Never mind the weather, for the ship

HOME FROM COLLEGE.-He was
the son of worthy Manchester citi-
zen, and had just returned from col
lege. His father was brusque, mat
tcr-ot-fact man, who had no liking
for anything pronounced, and he
noticed with sorrow that his son re-
turned with the latest thing i'm col
lars, and various other insignia of q
dukedom. The old gentleman sur
vcycd him critically when he ap-
peared in his office and then blurted
out:
" Young man, you look like an
IDIOT"
just at that moment, and before
the young man had time to make a
fitting reply, friend walked in.
why, hello, Billy, have you
returned ?" he asked. Dear me
how much you resemble your
father!"
$50 he has been telling me-" re-
piled Billy.
And from that day to this the old
gentleman had no fault to find with
his son.

JArAN.-ltev. DIR. Joseph Cook,
In recent lecture on Japan, consid-
cred the CncOuragements and faults
Of the empire of the Orient. The
encouraging features he enumerated
are these:
|. Her island position. Japan is
the England Of the Pacific. Her
people are Il nation Of sailors, brave,
fearless and daring. Unlike China,
she has navy of great strength.
She aspires to rule the Pacific.
>. The japanese are patriotic.
They believe in authority, and fol-
low their Federal leaders.
). Japan has marvellous powers of
assimilation. They know how to
copy the West. The knowledge
they import is digested, and their
scholarship becomes Oriental as we'll
as Occidental.
1. The japanese yield readily
to discipline. They obey superiors,
and make good soldiers and sailors.
There is Il fidelity to those in au-
thOrity which makes them capable
of being cOmpacted into strong
nation. The reverence for those in
high place has a divine basis. The
transfer Of their reverence for au-
thority to Christ would make them
eminent Christians.
>. The japanese have q fine phys
lcal and mental organism. They
are c-graincd-a diamond edition
of humanity. With the flesh Of a
child they have the backbone of
man. They are not merely scnti-
mental; in the delicate form is
rcsolute and noble spirit.
Among the faults Of the japanese
the reverend lecturer named conceit,
caste and false faith; and "Japan
needs" he added, " to copy the vital
faith and not the doubt of the West.n
