CHANGE
OF Name of Self Culture
Magazine.
Will be Known as Modern Culture
Magazine.

The Werner Company has made the
following announcement:
With the July issue the publishers
propose to change the title of the Sell
Culture Magazine to the Modern Cul-
ture Magazine. II is done with some
reluctance, since in making the alter
alton IN old and now familiar designa-
tion Is parted with, under which for
five years the Magazine has not only
prospered in Il remarkable degree, but
has had the most agreeable relations
with its myriad friendly, courteous
and most appreciative readers. Why,
then, IT may he asked, is the change
made? Partly from II misconccption
in many sections of the United States,
where the periodical Is making new
friends. of the aims and character OF
the Magazine, some mistaking the
publication for one devoted to physical
culture and partly from the broaden
| ing of the scope of the publication,
which in its inception was designed to
address those chiefly who sought to
educate themselves by self-effort. IIav-
| ing. with the passing successful years,
developed and expanded from this ear
ly and tentative stage, the moment has
been thought propituous for making
the change in the title.

for the old WILL without party entire

Or shining wings and robes OF white,
And things all strange 20 mortal sight.

IG ia a more familiar place,
A home unhurt by siRhs or tears,
Where WalteEh many q well, known

With passing months it comes more

It gro VS. more real day by day,
Not strange or cold, but very dear
Toe GLAD home land NOS far away,
Where none are sick, or poor, or lone.

With all the strife and trouble DER.

A converted cowOoy crudely enough,
to be sure, but forcibly gives this as
his idea OF what religion is: LOTS Of
folks tnas would like TO do right think
that serving the Lord m 4ans singing
themse Ives hoarse praising His name
Now I will tell you how / LOOK at tt at'
I'm workin' for Jim here. Now, If I'd
sit around the house here tellin' what
a good fellow jim is, and singing
songs to him, an gettiu' up in the
night to serenade him, I'd be doin' just
like what lots OF Christians do, but |
wouldn't suit jim, and ID get fred
mighty quick. But when I buckle on
my STRAPS aud husile among the hills
and zee that J,m's herd is all right,
and not suff 5rin' for water or feed, or
b9in' eff the range aud branded by COW
thieves, then Tm serving jim as he
wants to bs served" That was the
converted coRboV's idea. With all OF
it's %crudeness, does it not sound like
the word of Him who, when HIS dis
crple said: Lord, thou knowest that
l love thee :" only answered: Fed my
sheep, my lambs. Sal.

A BROKEN AND CONTRITR

Though other things may be worse
for breaking, yet a heart is never at

G. ID loves a whole heart in eff 9ct

himself that breaks it. Therefore &C

SQUIRE GRANRY's WEAKNESS

Squire CRANKY was dead. The vii
lsge people had gathered in the church
Co hear his funeral sermon. Toe old
doctor, with his 1, pew, JOHN, who was
down from the city, sat in a back pew.
The minister told what every n
there KIN W to be the truth OF the dead
man. A faithful believer in Christ, a
man of high integrity, in whose justice
and honesty the whole community
trusted, liberal 10 the poor, walking
blsmeless under every moral law.
Twas all that truel' said John, as he
and the doctor walked home.
"E very word OF it,"
Aud yet" said the young man, 81
got the impression the other day at
the funeral tnat neither his neighbors
Lor his family felt his death very
deeply. Iodeed, / fancIed / saw a look
OF relief on their faces"
The doctor was silent for a moment.
You are too snrewd an observer,
J Ack," he said. The squire loved to
manage. Hs was a busy. energetic
man, and he thought it bis duty to lash
every man and woman who was not as
busy and energetic as himself. His
tongue was like a goad. Hs was a
man, too, who never praised or en-
couraged anybody. His wife and
children probably never heard a word
of communication from him in their
lives, strive as they might.
Then he complained necessarily of
the weather, of his food, of the state of
the church and the country; of ali that
his family did or did not do. When he
came into the room you felt that a
chilly fog had closed in upon you.
"And yet, in spiTe Of these faults,
the go lire was faithful in his heart to
his friends and to G1d. He probably
never was C onscious of these disagree =
able traits, but they we're so notlceaO ole
that his neighbors, AMI even his chill
dren and his wife, could not help a
certain feeling of relief when he was
gone"
Il wonder" said J lck, "it he knew,
when he Wakened In that other life,
how depressing and unpleasant a
Christian he had been in thIsH'
Il wonder" said the doctor, IF there
is no way for you and me to fad out

REPUBLIC TO Be OVERHAULED
HarIaHs Will Supply Iron Side Wheels and
Ren0Iate Interior Of Steamer

Captain L. H. Cone, Of the steamer
Republic, has just signed a contract
with the Harlan and Hollingsworth
Company for extensive work that will
be done upon the steamer before the
season opens next Spring. The Re
public is now lying tied up at Cam
den, but in a few days the steamer
will be towed here.
The most important of the altera-
tions will be the substitution Of iron
wheels for those of wood with which
the steamer is at present equipped
The new wheels will be 33 feet s
inches in diameter and II feet 4 in
ches face. This change will add con-
siderably to the speed of the Republic,
reducing the time of the round trip
to Cape May and return at least one
hOur-thirty minutes each way New
wheel boxes will be built and the en-
tire interior and exterior of the steam
er will be renovated before she again
goes into service for the Summer ex-
