My text also suggests the reason why so
many people do not get any real comfort
You meet ten PEOPLE Nine of them are in
need Of some kind of coincidence. There is
something in their health, or in their state
or in their domestic condition that de-
mands sympathy. And yet most Of the
worlds sympathy amounts to absolutely
nothing. People 60 to the wrong crib, or
they go in the wrong way. When the
plague was in Rome great many years
ago, there were so men who chanted them
selves to death with the litanies Of Gregory
the Great-litcrally chanted themselves to
death--and yet it did not stop the plague.
And all the music of this world cannot
halt the plague of the human heart l
come to some one whose ailments are
chronic and l say, I'm heaven you will
never he sick 4" That does not give you
much comfort What you want is sOoth-
ing power Tor your present distress. Lost
children, have your l come to you and tell
you that in ten years perhaps you will
meet those loved pLps before the throne ~
God. But there is but little coincidence in
that One day is year with them and
ten years is small eternity. What you
want is sympathy nOw-present help. l
come to those OF you who lave lost dear
friends and say: Try to forget them. Do
not Leep the departed always in your
mind. How can you forget them when
avery figure in the carpet, and every book,
md every picture and every room calls out
their namo9 Suppose ! come to you and
say by way Of coincidence, God is wise. "
ooh" you say, "that gives me no help.
Suppose l come to you and say, God,
from all eternity, has arranged this trou'
bic iAh, yOu say, nthat docs ne no
good" Then say, with the swift feet
of prayer go direct to the coFncrib for q
heavenly supply. You 60 You say,
Lord, help me; Lord, comfort me. " But
no help yet No comfort yet. 1t is all dark.
What is the matter? l have found. You
ought to 90 TO God and say: Here, o
Lord, are the wounds Of my soul, and
bring with mo tie wounded Jesus. Let
his wounds pay for my wounds, his be-
reavements for my bereavements, his lone
illness for my loneliness his heartbreak for
my heartbreak. o God, for the sake of
the Lord Jesus Christine God, the Man,
the Benjamin, the BrotheF-deliyeF my
agonized soul o Jesus Of the weary foot,
ease my fatigue! 0 Jesus Of the aching
head, heal my aching head Q Jesus OF
the Bethany sisters, roll away the stono
from the door Of our gravel"
That is the kind Of prayer that brings
help, and yet how many Of sou are getting
no help ut all for the reason that there IS
in your soul perhaps a secret troubled You
may never have mentioned 1t To single
human car, or you may have mentioned it
TO some one who is now gone away, and
that great sorrow is still in your soul. Aft
or Washington Irving was dead thcf5iound

What is money. Simply a conven-

Man invented money as an accommoda-

Money i not q necessity IN the exchange

convenience. 50 is the selection OF the
substance from which it Is made
Moneys play the same part III com
merce that railroads, wagon roads and

Several means Of transportation have
been found desirable; 50 have several
forms Of money Each IS a convenience.
All help mankind
There is no form Of money that IS
measure Of value. A days labor ls the
measure Of all values. The amount OF
labor necessary TO produce given
amount Of any substance necessary TO the
wants Of man Is alone the measure OF It's
value This is another indisputable fact

If it takes five days labor 70 produce ten
bushels of wheat, that wheat IS equal in

This Is nature measure. it IS the only

The substances that have been used
for money have been changed from time

PecuIiarities or Lightning.

Persons struck by Lightning have

Victims have been horribly burned,
and eve dismembered. a stroke of
lightning has cut off a mans ear or
shaved has hair and beard clean and
not hurt him in any other way. The
markings are often curious. Blue is
the common color. but they have been
red, green and black, and occasional
ly the whole body turns black. Ne
groes who have been struck by light
ming have had their skin bleaohed in
spots to absolute wilderness. One @
gro who had been struck by lightning
found, when he had recovered con-
sciousness, that he had one complete
white arm, the rest of his body being
as black as usual. Blindness, deaf
ness and either total Dr. partial paraly-
sis are frequent consequences of light
ming strokes. Sometimes the light
ming selects a single object on a mans
person and assails that without APP
parently touching the man himself
Coins have been melted until they
stuck together in a mans pocket.

Keys, watches and watch chains, met
al cartridges and eyeglass frames have
been more or less damaged, while the
persons wearing them have been al

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
A Kim for the United States.

A wealthy American, an .ex-Sena-
tor and a combatant of the Union
side in the var Of the Sre6ellion, has
been telling the interviewer of a
Paris paper that the United States Of
America are now quite ripe for the
establishment of a monarchy. He
said:
1--WE cannot continue as we are going
on at present. It's unnatural. We
are a Teutonic and therefore an aris-
tocratic people. We have had with
us always a~:monarchial party which,
II the truth must be told, is in a re-
spectacle minority. Were it not for
Jefferson Washington would have
been king. The time was not ripe for
a monarchy, but the time is ripe now
when we have amongst US great mil
lionaires, that is to cay, a class from
which We can create barons and mar
quises and dukes.
at is unnatural that John Smith,
a car driver should be called Mister,
and that George Gould, a railroad
magnate of the first class, should have
no higher distinction. 1t is still more
unnatural that John Smiths vote or
voice should have the same potency
as that of George Could; III fact it is
monstrous. We shall soon change all
that. The signs as the caming
change may be observed in New York
the metropolis, the seat Of the arts, of
wealth and OF culture. Take our no.
tells in that city, the grandest in the
world. Do we call them after Wash
ington, u Lincoln. or Madison, or
Grant? DO we name them after any
OF our heroes or cities? No, they are
called Brunswick, Victoria, ,Grosven-
or. Albemarble, Windsor. Bueking-
ham, Marlborough, and other great
English aristocratic families. Why?
Because great hotels are patronized
by the wealthy, and wealthy Ameri-
cans incline toward titles"
