Two pennies dropped on the ledge
Of the brass-barred window. The pos

had been too much for him. A little

"Well?' snapped the clerk.
He had just opened his window in

eight hours of the hardest kind OF
work were in sight. The little girl

Nsw HAVEN, December 25.-
'sProf.' Anderson, Of Lyme's famous
"Holincss Band is out with another
series of predictions Of what's to hap
pen when the great change of the
world comes two years hence. "Since
the times allotted" writes the profes-
sor, "to the four Gentle empires end
on November Is, 1899: at evening,
(probably,) Jerusalem time. and the
fifth kingdom. that Of Israel, begins,
let US consider some Of the character
lists Of that kingdom, and ue shall in
deed see that the proclamation that
heralded the gift to the earth Of that
kingdom was, indeed, Good tidings
Of joy which shall be to all people.
"The first Characteristic of this
kingdom will be the rigid and exact
justice with which the law will be ad
ministered. All oppression Of the
poor will cease, and any attempted op-
preston will be checked in the begin
ming.
Second-It shall be the kingdom
of peace. There shall be no war in
all the earth for thousand years, and
then but one great revolt, followed by
an eternity of peace.
"Third-There shall be an abund
ancc of food. No more hunger. no
more want Of any kind. Every desire
of man heart that is not wrong shall
be abundantly satisfied In order
that there may be this abundance the
climate will be changed, and as a re-
suit, there will be such fertility as the
world has not yet seen. The animals
will become peaceful and will eat
grass again. The deserts will be fer
tile, and from Jerusalem river will
flow into the Dead Sea, freshening its
waters, and then on into the Indian
Ocean. All that desert land shall be
very garden.
"Another point is mentioned by
Micah and that is there will be no
house rent to pay. They shall sit
every man under his own vine and
under his fig tree. There will be no
more great tenement houses, no more
slums, filled with every kind Of evil,
but every man shall own his own
house and open yard. Think Of how
many there are who suffer for air and
see the great blessing that this little
thing will bring Again, there shall
be healing for all disease
'Then shall the eyes of the blind
be opened and the ears Of the deaf
shall be unstopped. Then shall the
lame man leap as hart and the
tongue Of the dumb shall sing. Those
parents who have laid away their lit
tie ones shall know that never again
shall that sorrow come to the children
Of men, for There shall be no more
thence an infant of days.
Think of all the remances and
schemes Of a golden age from Plato
and Thomas Moore to Howells and
Bellamy, and think that the blessed
reality exceeds those books hun
drcdfold. And then look at the hope
less outlook before US under the op-
GRAFTON of the present harsh law of the
survival Of the fittest-how Spencer
sees nothing before us but a
crushing social tyranny, and how
Huxley sees that the necessary consc-
qucnce OF present arrangements is to
press the great part Of men down into
constant life of starvation. and then
say if these things that [ am telling
this people are not the best of good
news. -Ncr York Times.

The little one took it for refusal to
accept the parcel because she had not
paid enough for the postage. Quickly
the tiny hands fumbled at little
purse, where TWO more pennies were
in keeping. These were on the win
dow ledge in a moment with the other
two.
"There's more pennies sir, said
the little one. "Please take it now.
I haven any more pennies.
"Why, my child said the clerk,
who had babies of his own at home,

"oh, please broke in the little
