A Ncgro,s Long Drink.

A western member Of congress was
recently with party discussing the ca
pacity of men to drink strong liquor.
After listening to several stories along
this line, he said:
"Well, l don't believe any class Of
men can beat these Washington nsgroes
when it comes to drinking strong quor.
One Friday night as l came ho- - after
a nights session thought would stop
in a little saloon near my house and get
a stovepipe of lager to make me sleep
sound. 1t is not very swell place, but
II was the only one convenient. While l
was emptying the big glass of the frothy
liquid tough looking negro, with big
stick under his arm, walked in and de-
manded pint of gin.
"'What price,? asked the young man
,ehind the bar.
Twenty cents, said the fellow, be-
ginning to count out lot of pennies.

where is your bother

not even deigning to take drink OF
water when he had finished. The bar
tender did not seem to be at all sur
prised, merely remarking that the fell
low would probably take several such
drinks before he finished the evening. "

The Hutton Fad.

Harry Jacoby Of New York, who is
called the fin de steele drummer, is at
the Planters hotel. All yesterday after
noon and evening he was the center OF
crowd DESTROYS of seeing the latest
novelty in fads-the button fad.
Jacoby's button is entirely unostenta-
tious, but it is unique. 1t is dial
about three-eighths of an inch in diane
ter and has two tiny steel hands and
numbers from to IL in clock fashion.
That it is a watch does not dawn upon
the average mind, but such it is, and
the base of the button, OF oxidized sill
yer, concealed underneath the lapel OF
his coat, contains the works. 1t is one
of the first ever imported to this coun-
try and is priced by Jacoby as being
one of the most unique of his collection
of curiosities.
He also has another novelty in the
shape of pack of playing cards, ON the
face cards of which are pictures OF ia
nous actors and actresses. The button
watch is of French make, while the
cards were made in this country.

Personal Service.

OF the Saviour, and only of the
Saviour, is it true in the fullest, broad
est and most unqualified sense, He went
about doing good" From this descrip-
ton it is evident that He did good per-
sonally. The evangelists constantly tell
us He touched the leper with His finger !;
that He anointed the eyes of the blind.
and that in cases where he was asked to
speak the word only at distance. He
did not usually comply, but went Him
self to the sickbed and there personally
wrought the cure. A lesson to us, II we
would do good, to do it ourselves. HE
hath left us an example that we should
follow in His steps. Lutheran OBJ

The Preaching Of the Law.

Men go to great lengths to bring the
preaching of the law into discredit and
disfavor. They strive to belittle the Old
Testament and the epistles that they
may destroy legal spirit, as they call
it, and establish the reign Of love. But
love is law. Love without law Is not
love. God as sovereign has establish.
ed law in the natural and spiritual
world. He administers law. Obedience
is life with honor; disobedience is death
with dishonor. Christian Intelligencer.
