Bob Burdett's Understanding.

Here's Bob Burdette's understanding
Of the Monroe doctrine: The Monroe
doctrine, Bidwell. simply means and
implicitly declares that no foreign
nation shall come over here and slide
down our cellar door that England
and France shall not hang on our
front gate to do their counting that
they can't bring over their own syrup
pots and elder spouts and make syrup
in our maple grove that Germany and
Austria can't spot no bee tree in our
woods that Italy can't cut her fire.
wood out Of our hedgerows; that Rus
STA can't spank her neighbours children
with our butter paddle. The Monroe
doctrine simply mean that we are the
bull of the woods between two oceans
and that the man who joins farms
with us on either side had better not
move the boundary fence until he
talks to us about it, and that he can't
sub-let a patch on his farm to any
body until we are satisfied that the new
tenant will make a good neighbor to
us. That's about all there Is Of it.

everyone who tried it got relief.
"It is the best general remedy I ever
used or know anything about"
When the ervou system has become
weakened from any cause, Paine's
celery compound builds it up as moth
ing else can. 1t makes people well.
People in every walk of life have
reason to be grateful to Prof. Phelps,
of Dartmouth, the eminent scientist
who discovered Paine's celery com
pound, He understood the peculiar
needs of the nervous system; he knew
that the backache, headache, sleepless-
ness, loss of appetite, and disordered
blood all mean that the nerves are
weakened and inadequate to the de-
mands upon them. The experience of
thousands has proven all over this
broad country that only Paine's celery
compound will give health to the
nerves, and through them to the entire
body.
Colleges conferred upon DR.. Phelps
their highest honors for his invaluable
Investigations in medicine, but all this
seems insignificant in comparison with
the chorus of gratitude that has gone
up all over the world from men, women
and children, who have outgrown
weakness and the lack of health by the
nse of Paine's celery compound. the
most wonderful nerve and blood res
torative.

When do I intend to marry Well,
IT'S idle to dispute with fate,
But, if you choose to hear me tell,
Pray listen while | fix the date.
When daughters haste, with eager feet,

And not as army soldiers scan

When gentle ladies, who have got
The offer of a lovers hand,
Consent to share his earthly lot,
And do not mean his lot of land
When Young mechanics are allowed
To find and wed the farmer girls,
We don't expect to be endowed
With rubies, diamonds and pearls
When wives, in short, shall freely give
Their hearts and hands to aid their

And live, as We're wont to live,

The Teacher as a Lover.

From the Southern School.
Above everything else the true
teacher is a loyer-a lover of children,
a lover of mankind, a lover of his
brother and sister teachers, a lover of
learning, n lover of all things true,
beautiful and good. Only a heart full
of love, running over with kindness,
can tip and tiuge all its work with the
charity which never faileth.
Unless you love people you cannot
teach them unless you love them your
instruction rolls off like peas from IN
iron clad. If you love them they can
no more resist your teaching than the
school boys snow man can resist the
rays Of the sun. All men, all pupils,
may not be worthy of your love, but
you must love them for your own sake
your best interest, your own best cult
walton, both of head and heart, depend
upon it. If you love deeply, you may
teach deeply but shallow love, shallow
teaching.

A Surprised Dog.

From the Baltimore Sun.
A large Newfoundland dog had a
narrow escape yesterday. One of the
span wires of the Traction Company's
lines at the foot of Marshall avenue
broke, fell across a trolley wire Of the
City Passenger Company, and hung
about n foot from the ground. On
the end Of the wire was one of the iron
holders for the trolley wire, and this
attracted the attention of the dog. He
watched it swing to and fro for a time,
and when 1t came to a standstill he ap.
preached it and shifted at the wire.
The electric fluid passed through the
dog, and he turned several sommer-
saults before he regained his senses.
He then took a look at the wire, put
his tail between his legs, and went up
Marshall avenue at a lively gait
Persons who saw him said the avenue
was not large enough for him.

Col. Joseph l.. Follett, of New York
has n national reputation.
At the age Of 81, Col. Follett enlisted
in battery G. First Missouri Light Ar
tillery, and soon rose to its command.
At Lookout Mountain, his was the
only battery that reached the summit.
Since the war he has devoted him
self to mechanical engineering, and
has invented several important i'm
provements on the sewing machine,
and a bicycle that promises to be one
of the surprises for next season.
The tension on the nervous system
of an inventor, kept up for months and
months, seriously weakened the health
of a busy brain worker like Col. Fol-
lett, and his constitution, which even
the hardships of wal did not weaken,
threatened to succumb to nervous ex.
haustion.
What Col. Follett has to say in re-
gard to his restoration to health, can
not fail to carry great weight In a
letter to Wells & Richardson Co., of
Burlington, Vt, he writes
"When suffering from mental ex-
haustion and a generally disorganized
system, and over work, l used Paine's
celery compound.

From the Mobile Register.

day, Judge W.. S. Anderson presiding.
A novelty was sprung on the court as
well as the crowded court room Of citi-
zens by a motion made by Col. Samuel
b. Browne that the court be opened
each day by reading a chapter from the
Bible and prayer. Judge Anderson
granted the motion, stating that he
thought it a very appropriate service.
Col. Browne volunteered to read the
first chapter, which he did. choosing
the first chapter of Peter. After the
reading Solicitor Stewart Brooks was
requested to lead the prayer, and res
ponded in an able petition imploring
divine direction for the court and that
justice might be done and the county
benefited by the session, closing with
an earnest appeal for divine blessings
upon all present. The assembly room
paid respectful attention to this novel
feature Of the court, standing during
the prayer.

Gladstone, In North American Review.
The sceptical mind may frame ques-
lions as it will Death sternly refuses
to give it any satisfaction. The love
of money may heap around us noun
tains of gold all this is but to lower
the ratio Of that which q man is, to
that which he possesses. The fever of
self indulgence may multiply our enjoy
ments but each new enjoyment is, for
the common run of men, a new want,
and each new want is a new link in the
chains Of moral servitude, a new de-
duction from Jul high ~prerogative Of
freedom. Schemes Of negation may
each for a while fret and fume upon
the stage of human affairs. 1t is death,
the great auditor of accounts, that re-
duces them, one and all, to their natu-
raj and small dimensions. The present
is louder than ever in its imperious
demands but injured nature takes it
upon her to reply that the present is
the life of animals, and the future is
the life of man. In the development
OF luxury we are UNNECESSARILY ahead
of the ancient Greek, and we might
have been proportionately more success
full in putting off the questionings of
the soul respecting that which is to
come, had not a new voice sounded
forth in the world to proclaim the
word Resurrection since which it has
become impossible, by any process
within our resources, to stifie the long
ings of the human spirit to obtain the
command Of some instrument for meas
uring the future which expands before
1t.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
Prepared by II. X. Hinde, A. M, NJ. D.
QUARTERLY REVIEW.
March 30.

During the past quarter, after the
announcement, by the angel, of the
approaching birth of John the Baptist
and of Jesus, we have followed His
footsteps from His early childhood at
Nazareth to His visit at the temple at
twelve years of age, to His baptism,
through the temptations, the informal
call of the first disciples, Andrew,
John, Simon, Philip and Nathaniel,
the marriage at Cana and the first
miracle, a short visit TO Capernaum
with His mother; brethren and the
few disciples. From this point He
goes to the passover feast at Jerusalem,
and now in%tervenes the Judean minis
try, of about one year, of which the
account is given only by John. Re-
turning to Galilee, after a short tour,
we find Him again at Nazareth preach
ing in the synagogue, where our les
sons for the quarter take up the his
tory and we follow Him now through
His great Galilean ministry of about
one year and nine months, and on
through the Perean ministry up to the
time of our last lesson.
1. The Forerunner of Christ In
this lesson the angel of the Lord APP
pears 10 Zacharias as he is ministering
in his priestly Office at the altar Of in
cense, and to him that his
prayer was heard, and that his wife
Elizabeth should bear a son, and that
his name should be called John. The
character of John and his mission is
foretold. He was '"to make ready a
people prepared for the Lord" Let
us show our classes, from this lesson,
the dignity of Johns Office and minis
try descended froR such parentage,
and his relation to the ministry of the
Messiah, in the fulfllment of prophecy.
2. The Boy Jesus. -Confining our
selves to the text of this lesson we
have only the incident connected with
the going down to Jerusalem at the
time of the annual feast, and Christ's
interview, at the age of twelve, with
the doctors in the temple. We have
this significant statement however that
"Jesus increased in wisdom and stat
ure and in favor with God and man" /;
and this other that '"the child grew,
and waxed strong in spirit, filled with
wisdom and the grace of God was
upon Him. Here Is room for imagin.
alton and much thought.
8. Ministry of John the Baptist. in
this lesson we find John at the height
of his popular ministry, and crowds
hocking to his baptism. The feeling
ran so high that many began to
suspect that he was the Christ Of
prophecy. John showed the greatness
of his character by his self renuncia-
tion and his exaltation of the coming
Messiah. He sets forth the true nature
of his baptism with water, in contrast
with the baptism Of Christ, with the
Holy Ghost and with fire. We have
from Luke the simple statement Of the
baptism of Jesus by John, the descent
Of the Holy Ghost upon Him, and the
