Hits the Nail SquareIy on Its Head.

The Erening Times, of Tuesday,
has the following to say Of the moss
back Senators who voted to reject
the treaty. 1t hits the nail squarely
on its head and clinches it on the
under side:
"Every word said in the Senate in
praise of that corrupt agitator, Aguin-
aldo, and every moment of delay in
ratifying the treaty afforded direct
encouragement to the iisaffected
elements i'm Cuba and Porto Rico.
AS Senator Morgan declared there is
no question that Aguinaldo was led
to believe that he had powerful
backing in this country, though, as
Senator Stewart stated, in travelling
from the far west to Washington he
did not meet a single individual who
opposed the immediate ratification
of the treaty. The Southern people
were hardly less unanimous in its
favor. The eastern section Of the
country was equally so. Upon what
rational ground the ObstructiOnists in
the Senate based their opposition it
is difficult to determine. Not an ar
gument was advanced by them
worthy of a moments consideration.
They simply, blindIy and fooIishly
played ii desperate game and lost it,"

SEEKING THINGS ABOVE.
The Most Practical Life and the Only One Worthy Of a Think
 ing Man.

The true Christian does not withdraw from the world; he remains in it. He has his family ties, his social relations. his business occupations. He tastes the sweets of the domestic affections, he re- f@shes himself with social recreations, he is active in his business pursuits. But he remembers that he is not always to live in this world. He is sure, for he has studied Gods Word to good pur- pose, that the things which are seen are temporal. He becomes increasing ly conscious that life here is but the be- ginning of the everlasting life, and that therefore the important thing is to set that life now in the right direction. It is in this time of education that he is to secure the training that will fit him for the highest blessedness, the most fruit fulness when these school days are over. He is seeking the things which are above, he is setting his affection upon them.
 Hence. while there is no great out ward difference in his life from that of others, there is a real difference at the center and heart of ii. Photographers tell us that there is as much contrast between the styles of different opera tors as there is between styles of hand writing. Most of us would not be able te distinguish this contrast. We hear the rattle of the sounder. with it's series of confusing clicks, but that is all. The expert can tell who is at the instrument miles away. So while in outward things we may see no very great difference be- tween the life of the Christian and of the simply moral man. we know that there is a real difference. It is the hid den, bat all powerful one of the motive, that is animating the fife Where there is a different motive, the life of very necessity will be different. For him who seeks the things that are above who is really seeking them, making them the motive power in his living, whose life ill the midst of the material is truly spiritual-for him the home will be an image. even if only on a very small scale. of the heavenly home; for him society will be the place where he can gain at once refinement and grace of character, and bring his own person al influence to bear on others; for him business will be the sphere, not of sor- did and groveling gain-getting, but of noble activity where he may earn the means that help to make earthly life enjoyable, and by which also he may do good to his fellow-men.
 So he who seeks the things above is really living the most practical life, the only life that is worthy of a thinking man, the life that blends easily and naturally with that which lies beyond the grave in everlasting brightness and beauty-Oliver X. Kingsbury, in N. Y. Observer.

FILIp1N0s' MAUsFR BULLETS.

To the small caliber of the insurgents mausers many lives are owed, for the bullets bore clean little hole, rarely fracturing a limb, and it takes a cen ter shot through the skull to kill. A half-dozen men shot through the brain with mausers have survived.
 A Montana boy was struck an inch back of the outer angle of the left eye, the bullet passing through his skull and making it's exit in the same locality on the other Side. He lost the sight of one eye and though the other may follow he will recover his usual health.

 Take not your rest too soon, else you will never enter into your real rest. It is not here, on this plank, amid the bill lows, but wonder on that shore.-George Bowen.
 Gods promises were never meant to ferry our laziness. Like boat, they are to be rowed by our oars; but many men, entering, forget the oar, and drift down more helpless in the boat than if they had stayed on shore.-Beecher.
 The voyage of human life under any other head than Christ and under any other wind than the wind of His spirit is sorro&Sful beyond all expression. Whatever port is reached, the port of peace, the joyful, eternal home, can not be reached.-J. Pulsford.
 He who trusts in his own moods for progress in the Christian life is like man who rows or rests while his boat is fastened to the shore. Trust in self IS doubt of God. Faith in our own faith is childish folly. Faith is faith because it cuts the bonds that bind us to ourselves and makes us share fine life of our Re deemer.@I. o. R.
 We are embarked with Christ. He is the Captain of the ship Salvation. II will not turn back because we feel dis couragement as days go on, showing but sky and sea.

In the ehartroom he could give us evidence that in these little changing days we are making sure and rapid progress toward the haven of our hopes.-Con- gregationalist.

ChiIdren,a Hair

The very best authorities on the hair recommend leaving the hair ot children to grow as it is without cutting it un- til the little one is seven or eight years old; then the hair should be cut moder- ately short or shingled, if it IS a boys hair. When little girl is 15 years old it is time to let her hair grow long. If a child is delicate and the hair heavy, it is wise thing to begin cutting its hair as soon as possible, as such hair is often heavy strain upon the system. N. '. Tribune.

BEYOND THE VEIL.

 How very small, how less than small, Iife's vanities, life's troubling cares
 And all Iife's verities would fall. Perhaps there's nothing in our lives,
 lThough now of priceless worth we
 deem)
 NT then would cherish, could we know What over there" they most esteem. How little lis we really know:
 We think there's Heaven and hell: We teach ourselves to gain the first And miss the last--and that is we'll Hold daily commune with the soul: This question ask, since life is fraii: If death should summon thee to-day, Art thou prepared to pass the vel?" Elizabeth D. Preston, in Rams Horn
