Light And Shade.

Perhaps as you look back over the
past year, there are some bits of ex-
perience that seem very dark to you,
though they were even darker when
you passed through them. You have
only to reach the right perspective to
see that the shadows were not the
least important part of your lifo.
Rev. Hugh S. johnson tells a story
of a queen sitting for her portrait who
commanded that It should be painted
without shades.
"Without shadows !" exclaimed the
astonished artist, ~ am afraid your
Majesty IS not acquainted with the
laws of light. There can be no good
portrait without shading"
No more can there be developed
Christian character without sorrow,
and to the pure in heart the vision
brightens through all the clouds, so
that with fondest aspirations smitten,
the dearest plans blighted, alone and
comfortless, the soul is still able to
say, like Mrs. Sigourney, the poetess,
when bereft of hOr only sou, Goods
time and will are beautiful, and
through binding tears 1 would fain
give Him praise"

Dr. johnson and Books.


DR.. johnson had the greatest con-
tempt for any book which was not
philosophy or pure literature. Once,
when he was visiting Samuel Foote,
he began running over his books
opening the books so wide as almost
to break their backs, and then flung
them down one by one on the floor
with contempt. "ZoundsW said
Foote, who was in torture all the
time. why, what are you about
thereR You'll spoil all my books p

A Nations Safeguard-The Bible.

1t was never known who composed
the following description of the Bible
1t was found in Westminster Abbey
nameless and dateless.
A nation would be truly happy if il
were governed by no other laws than
those of the Blessed Book.
1t is so complete 3 system that moth
ing can be added to il.
1t contains everything needful to be
known or done.
1t gives instructions to a Senate,
authority and direction to q magis-
trate.
1t cautions a witness, requires an
impartial verdict of a jury, and fur
nishes the judge with his sentence.
1t sets a husband as q lord of the
household and a wife as the mistress
of the table, tells him how to rule and
her how to manage.
1t prescribes and limits the sway OF
the sovereign, the ruler. and the au-
thority of the master, commands the
subjects to honor, and the servant to
obey, and promises the blessing and
protection of the Almighty to all that
work by its rules.
1t promises food and raiment, and
limits the use of both.
1t points out faithful and eternal
guardian to the departing husband
and father, tells him to whom TO leave
the fstherless children and whom his
widow is to trust, and promises a
father to the former and a husband to
the latter.
1t teaches a man to keep his house
in order and know his will, it APP
points dowry for his wife, and en-
tails the right of the first-born and
also shows how the young branches
shall be kept.
1t defends the rights of all and re-
veals vengence to the defaulter, over
reacher and trespasser.
1t is the fret book and the Oldest
book in the world.
1t contains the choicest matter,
gives the best instruction, affords the
greatest pleasure and satisfaction that
was ever enjoyed.
1t contains the most ancient antique

tures.s In this are COMPRISED jury
fees, wtess fees, sheriff., mArshalsi
b ilers' aud constables' fees, costs Of
examining courts, etc, etc.
In the United States Courts and the
courts of nearly every state in the I'm
ion, this difficulty is largely obviated
by laws empowering the jury to pass
alone on the question OF guilt and its
degree, and comforting power on the
court to tx the punishment.
The Treasury is depleted by excess
i've witness claims and guard fees.
Witness fees during the last fscal
year amounted TO $4,000. Witness
es living within five miles of the
Court House should not receive any
pay; those residing within ton miles
should be paid fifty cents per day
and those in the country, whose resi-
dences are more than ten miles dis
tant from the Court House, should re-
ceive 81 per diem.
During the East fiscal year the ex-
penditures for guards with convicts
10 Frankfort amounted to $9,927. Uu-
der the present law it has been held
that guards are entitled in such cases
TO ten cents per mile going and re-
turning. In my judgment the inten-
ton OF the statute was to allow ten
cente per mile one way, which 10
amply sufficient.
Under the present laws large
number of persons are yearly sent to
the psnitentiary who should be fined
and compelled to work out the same
on the county roads.
He recommends that the charitable
and penal institutions be managed by
board of three non-partisan commits
eioners. Charities shonld not be
used to promote political ends. These
commissioners, if need be, can be Sc
lected from other States, and are TO
recommend to the Governor the APP
pcintment of officials subject to con-
iirmation by the Senate. Should such
law be enacted, he suggests that it
be operative January l, '99.
He thinks the State prisons should
not he managed by the Sinking Fund
Commissioners.
New State buildings and Governors
Home are asked for,
There are these and others treated
