Cruciflxion of Christ.

"Crucifxion was terrible death, .
writes the Rev. Amory H. Bradford,
D. d., apropos of Holy Week, in an
article on 'The Last Week in Christ 5
Life" in the April Ladies Home
Journal. "It was reserved for offend
ers Of servile class and never used
for a Roman citizen. The hands and
feet of the victim were nailed to the
wood, and kind Of rude seat was pro-
vided-just enough to prevent the
weight Of the body from tearing
through the flesh. The exact spot
where Jesus was cruciGed cannot now
be identified. Golgotha was probably
some skull shaped hill outside the
city WALL Thither strange process
sion wended its way-the condemned
with their crosses on their backs, the
hard-hearted rabble making fun of
them as they passed. The strength
of Jesus failed before the destination
was reached, and another was COM
PEELED to carry the cross for Him.
This crucifyion, like all others, was
cruel and barbarous in the extreme.
The executioners were Roman soldiers,
but host of Jews feasted their eyes
on the hideous sight.
"Such agony was no protection
against the gibes Of the crowd. With
but one of His disciples in sight, and
only two or three friendly women
near-one of them His mother-Jesus
passed the last hours of His earthly
life. Those who suffered by cruci6x-
ion sometimes fingered three or four
days-Jesus lived about i've hours.
While hanging on the cross He spoke
seven times. Soon after the cross
was raised, looking over the coarse
and brutal soldiery, and the mistaken
fanatics who had bounded Him to that
hour, He uttered a prayer, which has
probably made deeper impression on
the world than any other single prayer
ever offered: Father, forgive them,
for they know not what they do. y

The Magic Apple.

Such rainy day! said little Amy
dolcfully. II wish that / knew some
thing new to do
"When [ was little girl, said her
mamma, Il used to think it great fun
to make magic apple, and surprise
my papa. How would you like to
make one for your papa?'
Amy was delighted with the idea,
and brought large, fair apple. Her
mamma gave her long needle and
strong thread, and showed her how ito
take long stitch in the apple close
under the skin. Amy drew the
thread. leaving about two inches
hanging out of the apple; then she
put the needle into the very hole it
came out Of, and took another long
stitch, and so on all around the apple,
at the end bringing the needle and
thread out of the very first hole; then
she took hold of both ends Of the
thread and pulled hard, but carefully,
and all the thread came out of the
first hole. Amy rubbed the apple,
which was fine red one, until it
shone like glass. The ncedle-holes
did not show.
When her papa came home. Amy
gave him the apple, and he sat down
by the fire to eat it, He began to
peel it with his sharp knife. 0, how
surprised he looked when the apple
suddenly fell in two when he had little
more than half peeled 1t.
Amy was pleased and surprised too.
for she did not realize that she had
cut the apple in two under the skin
when she pulled the thread out: but
she had.
Any child. with little care. can
make magic apple just as Amy did {,
and surprise somebody very much.-

new men, and they did fight. just
so, Colonel Rcnfroe could march the
1000 negro convicts forth and under
his lead they, too, will fight.
Then here is the cold wintry blast
that has come over our country and
killed our fruit and vegetables and
paralyzed our hopes. Our most for
ward peaches are not killed, but our
potatoes are utterly prostrated. They
will come out again and [ think will
make us good crop. Two years ago
mine were killed down to the ground,
but they came out again and [ never
had better crop. This leads me to
think that maybe they had better be
cut down early and then they would
make more fruit and less vines. My
wife threw all sorts of old clothes over
her Mareschal Neil rose vine that was
full of buds My neighbors covered
up their beans and bects, and some of
them spread newspapers over their po-
tatoes and saved them. I was away
down in Greensboro the coldest night
and it was not cold enough there to
kill anything. A few degrees Of lati-
tudc makes a great difference. Mr..
Marbury. the weather man, foretold
US Of this coming freeze and l have
great faith in him. When the weather
bureau was first established we thought
it was humbug, but long observation
has convinced the world that the
winds and the waves and the weather
are not the mystery they used to be.
Science has revealed their courses and
their changes and the telegraph tells
it truly many hours beforehand. The
scripture says, ''The wind bloweth
where it listetA and ye hear the sound
thereof, butyc cannot tell whence it
ccmeth nor whittier it goeth.
But We can tell now and can fortify
against disasters on land and perils on
the deep. Verify, there is something
new under the sun.

= \ minister, annoyed by tobacco
chewing, thus spoke to his congrega-
tion:: Take your quid of tobacco out
of your mouth on entering the house
of God, and gently lay it on the outer
edge of the sidewalk or fence. 1t will
positively be there when you go out:
for rat won't take it, a dog won't
take it, neither will hog, and you are
certain of your quid when you so out
after it,. Not the flthiest vermin on
the earth would touch it. 1t would
even kill feas on a dog.
When man begins to do wrong,
he cannot answer for himself how far
he may be carried on. He does not
sec beforehand, he cannot know where
he will find himself after the sin is
committed. One false step leads to
another one evil connection requires
another.

hospitals but to confine itself to distrlbut-
