IF he was more scholastic in style than
in after years, the tervor and force OF his
appeals were none the less felt by his
hearers. Especially was this strikingly
true when in course Of his discourse he
adverted to the death of his father, who
for forty years or more had been the in
cumbent Of the Epworth rectory. This
venerable man was asked not longbefore
his death: Are the consultations OF God
small with you? No, no, no! he ex-
claimed, with uplifted hands, and then
continued Wesley, calling all that were
near to him by their names, the dying
patriarch said: Think of heaven, talk
Of heaven; all time is lost when we are
not thinking of heaven!' This was
spoken by Wesley in a tremulous voice,
and his new %parishioners at Savannah
were for the instant almost swept off
their feet by a tidal wave of religious en-
thusiasm. Tradition has it that several
Indians who were present became so
greatly excited, not only by Mr.. Wesley's
impassioned oratory-though they did
not understand a word he said-but by
his gestures, that n old warrior ner-
vously clutched his ~tomahawk, fearing
an outbreak in the strangely moved au-
dience.

The Soothing Power of Work.

When an excitable child has nothing
more 10 do all day long than play, the
little fancy and imagination spend them
selves in ceaseless change. But if a little
real work be given, the tiny mind must
hold itself steady in order to accomplish
the task, and during the brief period the
overstrained nerves ct a rest. TO be
sure, the nerves are III use while the little
task is under way, but the slight sus-
tanned effort has a tonic effect. Other
| faculties have a chance to comeinto play,
which give the balance which purposeless
play cannot give. The ambition is stirred,
the mind is steadied, continuity OF pur-
pose begins, AID the excitablenature gets
a short period of acrual calm.
But" SAYS an alarmist, you would
not have a slender child like mine do any
work? The doctor says | must let her
run wild TIL she gets d strong body, and
then she will learn fast enough"
Yes, | do mean that such children as
yours would be helped out OF their ner-
vous condition if they had ~work-study
of some kind. Granted il their play
could irequen ly be guided by a wise
adult mind that the same results could
be gained; but it is not so guided, and
the play only ~aggravates the trouble
OF course the tasks must be small, the
lessons brief, but given carefully and
gradually, the ervou system comes
under control, and as a result the bodily
health improves in a way that all the
outdoor exercise and medicine could moi
bring about.
1t ~astonishes you? 1t has astonishet
Others many times, and yet it is true, to1
l have watched the results many times
and seen slender children grow strong
quiet, selfcontrolled, under the power o
work fitted to their strength. Do no
wait too long. This excessive excitabi|
ity grows apace, and every week in
creases the child's lack of poise oil bod,
and mind.-I Harper's Bazaar.

Toms Decent Demise.

For weeks and weeks Tom Sheppard
had been a sick mar at our mining camp
at Black Bear Valley. Everybody felt
sorry for him, aud vet a sick man in a
mining camp was a great inconvenience
and a burden. One day Judge Watkins
went up 10 him, and after finding him no
better and no worse than he had been for
many weeks. he said:
"Tom, | don't want to seem cold
hearted about this thing, but the boys
are beginning o wonder why you don't
die or get well.'
'Yes, reckon they are" replied Tom,
"and you can til 'em I'm goin' to die"
"Do YOU ieel it's for the best, Tom
~ do. l amt got much to livefur, and
might as well peg out now as any other
time. I've been waitin' fur a week or
two"
"Waitin'? Fur what?"
eur to die decrntly. I'm no duke or
lord. but | want things fixed up in good
shape. l want TO be washed up, shaved,
hev my hair cut, and git into some decent
buds, and | won't die till do"
The Judge told the boys what was re-
ouired. and that afternoon two or three
OF 'em knocked off work and fixed Tom
up. A shirt was borrowed OF one. acoat
OF another, a vest OF another. and by and
by the sick man WAS rigg,d out in the
best the camp afforded. When all this
had been done, he said:
"Now. then, Ikel more like dyin', but

Open Season for Deer.-At the an.

Open Season for Deer.-At the an.
nual meeting Of the Vermont Fish and
Game League at Rutland last week the
Burlington Free Press interviewed the
leading sportsmen on the deer question.
President J. W. Titcomb of St. Johns
bury tavors restrictions OF the killing of
deer except. perhaps, in Essex county.
He would not recommend special legisla-
ton fol- a particular county. He said:
"The deer OF Essex county are not the
product of private enterprise OF a few
public-spirited citizens as in the central
and southern portions of the state. In
the autumn of 1894 several complaints
OF deer killing in Essex county were pre-
sented to the commissioners, either by
anonymous communication or otherwise.
The commissioners investigated the mat
ter. There appeared to be no doubt
about the violation, but the most vocif-
erous complainant was the principal wit
ness, and he could not be induced to
remember anything. The citizens of
Essex county would not assist the com.
missiopers, as thev have fit for a long
time that injustice prevailed against
them inasmuch as the state OF New
Hampshire has an open season for killing
deer, and during this season they secure
many Vermont deer.
Essex county is not situated as the
other counties are on this question. Then
too there are probably as many deer in
Essex county as in any similar tract Of
forests in the Maine woods. 1t is for this
reason that under the head of recon.
mendations the commissioners have pre-
viously suggested special legislation fol-
Essex county relative to the protection
of deer"

a new vein-fantastic stories. Some
stories, Mr.. Kipling says, are meant to
be read quietly, and some are meant to
be told aloud. Some are Tor rainy morn
ings and some for long. hot afternoons,
and some are for bedtime. These stories
of Mr.. Kipllng's are meant to be told
'just-so," and one must not alter one
single little word. They are stories about
animals, queer, very queer animals.
Mr.. Frank X. Stockton will contribute

of which was known only to Mr.. Fowler.
Every means had been used to induce him
TO patent the invention. but he declined
to do so, fearing that he might lose the
value of it in some way. Through his
wife it was learned that he had never
confided his secret to any one, nor, so
far as is known, did he leave any written
formula of the process. Mrs. Fowler
thinks the secret was buried with her
husband. The invention gave such
promise OF commercial value that it is
likely other inventors will make strenu.

The invention was a process tor making

BABY's SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Scrofula Sores.
cat the age Of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over n
side OF his face. We consulted a physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in a week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, l began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. I also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign OF those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods S~arsaparilla, for which I feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icino." MRS. s. s.. WRoTEN, Farming
