A Dog story.

Our annual sheep and cattle show has
lately been held here. 1t is the biggest
gathering of the kind in New Zealand and
this year record was esta pIis he'd, there
being over 90 600 visitors. In this crowd
a t-iend of mine missed his dog, Scotch
collie named Mike, with whose help some
prize sheep from the Meadow bank estate
had been brought to the show grounds and
penned there. Not being able to find the
dog my friend concluded that he had gone
to the house where he had been the night
before, but upon inquiry found that Mike
had not done SO. Upon returning to the
show grounds he found the dog watching
one of the Meadowbank sheep that had
jumped out OF the pen. He took no no.
tlce whatever OF tho other sheep which
were being moved about the grounds, but
stuck faithfully 10 The one truant. watch
he evidently considered under his care,
until relieved of his self-imposed charge
by the welcome arrival OF his master, who,
with Mikes help, soon had the wauderer
back in the fold again. l afterward heard
that some one had tried to help Mike re-
capture the sheep, but the dog resented
his interference and drove the sheen away
from the pens in order TO show that he
took no orders from any one but his own
master.-London Spectator.

Another Sinner Heard From.

Mr.. EDITOR.
see by your issue of last week that
another sinner besides myself has
thoughts on religious subjects. Now,
the trouble with me is, which one OF the
churches To join. Then there is another
question: Why do the christian people
take so little interest In the sinner
True, efforts are made from time to
time To reach sinners in way, but it
looks to me as If it were more of an
effort To build up the particular relig-
ious party than to save the sinner.
Now, take it for granted, as the
preachers affirm, that sinners are in
danger of eternal loss, and take il for
granted that these different churches
must maintain their separate existence,
why do they not display a little more
wisdom in getting out of one another's
way in the work of rescuing the perish
ing? 1t looks to me like dumb foolish
ness that, when one church goes about
rescuing the perlshing, the others
should get plumb in the. way, so that
little can be accomplished. For in
stance, there have been two churches
engaged in revivals the past month,
when there should have been but one,
as the two divide the audiences and
distract the attention.
Again, while these two revivals have
been running neck and neck, there
have been other christian workers en-
gagged in suppers, lectures, sociables
and the like.
Is this the work of religious
and social leaders, who prefer their
own leadership To the work of rescuing
the perishing? Or shall we consider it
the work of utter Encouragement and
lack of power to cooperate on the part
of really sincere and well meaning peo-
pie?
1t seems to me that those engaged in
the work of saving sinners should do
one of two things: Either unite in an
earnest effort, or else take it by turns,
after the manner of "ride and tie" or
one work while others rest, or rather,
take turns at leading; while one leads
the rest follow, share and share alike.
To conclude, as a sinner [ plead no
excuse for myself. | know | must re.
pent or perish. | would that all men
should repent and turn to God But it
does look to me like double distilled
n Dnsense for these churches and so
cieties to be continually i'm one another's
way. 'roo many cooks spoil the broth"
L challenge any preacher, or any
other to come out boldly and defend
the religious methods now and for
some time pursued.

A THRIVING INDUSTRY.
The Model Steam laundry" Is Doing a
Lively Business.

THE Model Steam iaundry" Is Doing a
Lively Business.
1t isn't so many years ago when such
a thing as steam laundry was thing
unknown, and even n little hand laun-
dry was a novelty The washerwoman
has been on earth since the foundation,
yet if we take the Bible as correct, our
many times "a grandmother Eve had
little washing to do. Fig leaves were
plentiful and clothes were scarce when
Adam was on earth. and it is safe TO say
that Mrs. Adam never saw wash board
but when they got around to that point
where they though it good taste to wear
clothes, the inventive mind doubtless
began to hunt up some way to get the
dirt out of them. 1t is safe to assume
also that the dashboard was not the
first machine used for the purpose of
getting the dirt out Of clothes, but the
old machine dates back a good many
years, farther than any of US can re-
member, and with its running mate,
the pounding barrel, it has done great
service for humanity, and caused many
a backache. The washboard Is still on
earth and probably will be so long as
people continue to wear clothes, and
from present indications there is no
danger OF the people returning to the
mother Eve wardrobe, excepting it be
just for an evening, at fancy balls, or
something of that kind. But the wash.
board don't cut so much figure as il
used to and the fiatiron trade is not as
brisk as it used to be. The steam laun.
dry is taking the place of those old
time relics, and it will astonish you To
know the amount of work that is done
in this line, even in small village like
Paw Paw. Time was when everything
in the laundry line which couldn't be
done good enough in our homes, was
sent to Kalamazoo, but now all local
laundry work is done in this town
The new Model Steam Laundry,
started few months ago by Mr.. l.. E.
Prescott, has met with hearty recep.
ton and has "flled long felt want"
The business has grown from week to
week, until it has attained to very salts
factory proportions. The work done is
not confined to Paw Paw linen, but
large baskets come from neigh boring
towns, and more should come, as the
work done is as fine as we haye ever
seen. The laundry also makes a
specially of family washings, and does
large business in this line.
All the work is done by machinery,
and a visit to the laundry is interesting
TO anyone. The plant runs by steam
The sOiled clothing is cleansed in a
large, cylindrical washer, without the
wear and tear of the family washbo
and then the linens are dried in a
mechanical dryer, which revoves so
fast that it makes your head swim to
watch it. Others are dried in steam
heated closets. The starching is done
mechanically, the ironing is mostly
done mechanically, the delivery and
collection is not quite mechanical, but
is AZ regular as clock-work.
The Model Steam Laundry is
valuable and growing industry and is
entitled to every support aud en-
enlargement.

Fillmore, Dec. 26th. 1897
To the Editor:
1t was not a Merry Christmas" at
the home of Mr.. William stott in the
quiet town of Meadow, Willard county,
Dec, 25th 1897. Joseph stott his wife
and infant son came over from Kanosh,
where the gentleman Ia principal in
the district school, TO spend the day
with his fathers family. In one " the
rooms OF the house lay unconscious Of
the world and his varied surroundings,
Joseph Neild. the aged father of Mrs.
Stott and also Mrs. Ben Goddard of
Salt Lake City. For two days past
he had ceased to recognize the hands
that ministcred to his slowly ebbing
life. a numerous family of children
would watch and report to ma, from
time to time the condition OF grandpa,
as she anxiously worked to place the
most joyous meal of the year upon the
board before her loved ones. and Just
as the word was about to be given,
Come to dinner" little Clcone. the
sixteen-months-o son Of Joseph Stott

was almost fatal; the babe had swal-

and confusion reigned where appetite

feast Little Cleone became the target
of loving invention He was violently
kissed. Rugged. squeezed. twisted and
twirled, plunged into warm water. then
sprinkled with cold. but his limp little
body made no response TO shock or sup

nor his young mothers convulsive tears
were answered with n look of life. This
scene continued for nearly four hours
before little Cleone, like n rcsurrected
one, came forth to the world in love
and life again. Then there was joy
in that house. greater than the ami

ach. The soul rested in thankfulncss
for the kind interpositlon of Providence
that had plucked the untlmely reaper's
