THE LIFE OF A PREACHER.

:, 1t is no easy task to be minister
in this age and nation, says, the Spo-
kane Chronicle. An act that is for
gotten in moment for o man in any
other walk of life is remembered for
ever against the man in the pulpit.
He mustn't smoke: he mustn't drink;
he mustn't eat too much; he mustn't
say mean thing about the fellows
who try to stab him in the back; he
mustn't lose his temper if man calls
him names; he mustn't put his arm
around girls waist unless he's going
to marry her; he mustn't say anything
stronger than "gracious"'if he talSessa
header from his bicycle; he mustn't
try to lay up money; he mustn't run
in debt; he mustn't dress too well; he
mustn't dress shabbily; he mustn't go
to the theatre; he mustn't miss a
church meeting; he mustn't use slang;
he mustn't throw stones at his neigh
boris chickens; he mustn't descend for
ii minute to the level of Spokane's
lawyers, doctors, merchants and edi-
tors--he mustn't forget for minute
that his name is st. Stylites, and he
doesn't stay up on his little pedestal
and fold his hands just so his congre-
CATION CT miserable singers. will say
cit doesn't dotliem any COED. to SO to
church because the preacher isn't the
right man for the place." 1882,
Oh, it's a nice task, to be u minister,
viewed from a worldly standpoint
such Il jolly, easy taskl The wonder
isn't that there are some church
scandals-the wonder is that there
are not ten thousand more. The
wonder is that men--thousands and
tens of thousands of brave, generous,
noble men-can endure the Sights,
the snubs, the privations, the restric-
tions, the petty jealousies, the back
biting, the hypro crisy, the selfishness
and the lofty condescension of those
same church members who delight in
finding fault with the minister.
But there's a TIME coming-a time
when the weary preacher will fold his
tired hands and pass to land where
the grand reward waits for those who
toll in patience to help their fellow
men-a land where he can not hear
the charitable murmer of the church
bosses as they gather round the coffin
"Oh, he meant well-he was pref
ty good sort OF a preacher-but he
was such an awfully poor manager?"

FOR MOTHERS OF BOYS.

Don't keep nagging your boy. Don't
treat your boy as a hardened criminal
if you discover him in sin. Don't be
above apologizing to your boy if &C.
casion arises. He will honor you for
it. Don't forget that by treating your
boy like gentleman you will do
much toward making him one. Don't
forget that if you make your boy
think he is going to the devil he
won't be apt to disappoint you. Dop't
make his room sort OF junk shop
for all the odds and ends OF furniture
too shabby or old-fashioned to be used
anywhere else in the house. Don't
deny your boy the healthful, restrain
ing influence OF plenty Of outdoor
sports and athletics. There is whole
sermon in the phrase, muscular
Christianity" Don't shut him en-
tirely out OF the confidential talks
concerning home, business and neigh
borhood affairs, but teach him to res
pect the confidence.-Housewife.

THE OpTIMlsT.

Cali the worlds stage" How
true to life is this expression of the
worlds greatest dramatist! We cross
the threshold and mingle with the
busy throng. The curtain rises; the
scene beyond the footliyhts we con-
template with wonder and amazement,
and the beginning of each performance
but marks the commencement of a
new era in our existence.
The drama of life is Il continuous
performance, for humanity is in a
state of perpetual motion, the move
ment being either forward or back
wark, rapid or slow, according to the
quality and quantity OF motive power
which the individual exerts.
In its most comprehensive sense,
life is what we make it. As the warm
sunshine OF an afternoon eliminates
the recollections of dreary morn, so
does the glow of a pleasant smile
tighten the burden OF detected soul.
We toll, we think, we live ir the
present, knowing intuitively that to-
morrow will find us step farther for
ward or step farther backward than
We are today. The works of yesterday
are the chronicles of the past, their
only usefulness being as lesson that
in the future under like circumstances
we may profit by the experiences Of
the past, the present only being the
arena of action where are moulded
the hopes and inspirations Of, the
future.
The maxim of the optimist is It's
an i'll wind that blows none good"
He knows no faction, favors no class
and fears no creed. He believes that
all things happen for the best, and
considers it a sacred duty as well as a
cherished privilege to labor for the
elevation OF humanity to aid in up
building the institutions of his fellow
man. He lends an attentive ear to
the advice of the critic, the serf and
the sage, but reserves at all times the
inherent right to formulate his plans
and regulate his conduct according to
the dictates of his own judgment. His
theory is that the union of fellowship
with energy produces success, while
his policy is never worry over that
which cannot be helped. Always look
on the bright page of life and turn
over the leaf OF despair.

PUBLIC BENEFACTORS.

Most of the prominent fraternal
orders of the day must be regarded by
all observant people in the light OF
public benefactors as well as socially
helpful to the membership. The
Rainbow takes this view of the sub
ject and the words are so pertinent
and truthful we are glad to give them
place in this column. 1t says:
"Fraternal societies today constitute
a mighty influence in preventing
pauperism. They have solved the
difficult problem of giving aid without
charity. They have provided way
by which the man in want can re-
ceive help without losing his self-res-
pect and sinking into the humble
place OF pauper. The state owes a
debt of gratitude for their work in
this respect, and every community
where one exists is under obligations
to 1t Tor the distress 1t has relieved
through its operations, and which but
for it would have added to the public
burdens"
Note.-What is so truthfully said
in the above paragraph in general
terms is specifically true OF the great
Order of Odd Fellows, embracing as it
does million of people engaged in
fraternal and benevolent work.
The aid furnished annually to the
sick and unfortunate is counted by
the millions and large sums of this
great amount if not furnished by the
treasures Of the various lodges would
be drawn from the funds OF towns,
cities and counties.-SifLings.

AN IMPORTANT OPINION.

Assistant Attorney General Vance
last week, in answer to a query from
CITY Attorney Ralston of Port Town.
send, gave a very important opinion
and one that has a marked bearing on
Justice court practice, according 10 the
sound papers. The query was in rela-
ton to the jurisdiction OF justices OF
the peace in assault and battery cases.
The text OF the opinion is to the effect
that justices have no power to impose
in assault and battery cases any pun
ishment prescribed by the statute. In
the past it has been universally held
by lawyers that the limit to which
justices could infiict fines and i'm
prisoninent was 500 fine or term
in accordance Herewith. Mr.. Vance
holds that they may fine 81 600 or in
fiict a years imprisonment. The
opinion sums that matter up in these
words:
"The constitution nor the legisla-
ture having conferred exclusive juris-
diction on the superior court it was
competent for the legislature to give
justices OF the peace concurrent luris-
diction in cases of assault and battery"
The attorney generals ruling,
should it be held good law by the
courts, will therefore enlarge the juris-
diction of justice courts to great
degree.

ExpIanatory..

In the report of the Council proceed
ings in yesterdays issue the name of
Mr.. Pender appeared in one paragraph
where Mr.. Seneca's name should have
been used. 1t was made to appear that
when Mr.. Tazewell Taylor offered his
substitute to MIR. Beaman's motion.
providing that the Light Committee be
INSTRUCTED to f'e-st tll.t-eFeise for-biass, Ar
Pender moved the amendment making
the term OF the contracts endurance
one, instead of three years. This mo-
ton was made by Mr.. Seneca, and
crcditing it to Mr.. Fender was merely
a "lapsus calami." MIR. Fender. as is
well known, is not a Councilman, and
cannot make a motion in that body.
Another slip OF the pen in subse-
duent paragraph put Mr.. Beaman in
the position of Offering motion direct
ly in conflict with one he had previous
ly offered.
The words: ''1his vote was on Mr..
Remnants motion to adopt the minor
ity report" were misleading, as would
appear from the perusal Of the preced-
ing paragraphs, which show clearly
that Mr.. Beaman's motion was to adopt
tho majority and not the minority re-
port The vote was therefore upon the
adoption of the majority report. Both
errors are regrettable, and it is hoped
that no one was misled by them
