Young men! You are wanted from
the streets, from the joints, from the
loaferS' rendezvous, from the idlers'
promenade, from the paths of de-
bauchery and sin; because these paths
are slippery and treacherous and
lead to hardships and penury. There
is in the grasp of every young man a
crown, but there are obstacles to be
overcome and difficulties to be van
qlished, and the pathway to the
crown is strewn with noble purpose,
firm resolve, and an ever abiding &C
tivity. It's yours to deck the brow
with imperishable honorS, but these
are to be had only by exertion-ex.
ertion that will bring things to pass,
things that will shape you, body and
mind, for great endurance. As the
winding river owes its greatness to
the hidden springs of the mountain
nook, so does the wide sweeping in

from hours of privacy, resolutely

You are wanted from the habits

Editorial Notes.

Milan Herald.
Nothing is right that hurts man.
Truth belongs only to those whC
can accept it.
Do not borrow trouble, the inter
est is too heavy.
Thought is doing wonders every
where, but in the evolution Of char
acter.
Without the Light of the world
Christ, man has no true knowledge
of himself.
Be sure that you cannot dwell
apart from your real self, in this life
or the life to come.
1t is better to read one thorough
ly good book ten times than ten
different books once.
Always take time to do your best
Borrow time from eternity, if you
have to, since your best is Tor etern-
ity.
God is compelled at times to visit
mems tranSgressions with rod, and
their iniquity with stripes in order
to cleanse their character.
Two futures stretch themselves
before US. The one He'll, the other
Heaven. Our destiny depends upon
the cholce vi action in the present.
1fyou want to help any one to do
better, treat him as tho he had al,
leady attained higher plain Of life.
Nothing compels man upward like
the stimulus Of respect.
Christianity takes the terror out of
the past, floods the present with the
smile and approval of God, and il.
Eliminates the future with a hope
lnat is Dig with immortality.
Two salvatiOns present themselves
for mans consideration; salvation
by works and salvation by faith.
The former human nature prefers,
the latter the Gospel prescribes.
Two worlds solicit mans consid-
Grafton: this world and the world to
come. Many are undecided to which
they will give first consideration. Be
wise and give priority to the eternal.
To some the house Of God is a
place where lofty anthem captivateS,
faultleSs music delights, and fashion
displays the contents of its ward

Old Friends.

We are learning day by day,
AS we journey DER life's way
With its scenes forever changing, ever
new,
That tho new-found friends each yeaI
Greet us with kind words OF cheer,
There are no friends like the old friends
tried and true.
o, the tender winsome grace
Of each well remembered face
That we loved when hearts were yonug
and life was new;
And tho many years have fed
Since the farewell words were said
Still no friends are like the old friends
tried and true.
When our days are bright with JOY,
Or are dark with pains alloy;
Amid life's palms or roses or its rue;
There are none can sooth distress,
There are none whose presence bless
Like the presence Of the old friends
tried and true.
Many now have crossed the tide
Of the river deep and wide,
Whose farther shore is hidden from
our view,
And we miss the tender tone,
And the hands that clasped our own,
And the greeting Of the old friends
tried and true.
When our weary feet at last
Through the portals bright have passed,
When we meet again with those on
earth we knew,
Grant, o Father, in that land,
We may clasp again the Aand
Of each friend, of each old frien1 tried

DR. 6. W. Appleby, for several
Years the leading physician at BriS-

ten-m0nths.old child Of Henry Weary
Monday night while making an ex.
animation of it. The parents had
taken the child to DR.. H0bsOD's office
to be treated for some trifing
alimcnt, and before he had time to
attend to it he was called out. Dr..
Appleby, who was visiting DR.. Hob
son, was in the Office and the latter
suggested that Dr. Appleby should
make the necessary examination,
which, as soon as DR., HobSon left the
Office, he proceeded to do. He took
the child in his arms and handled it
so roughly that the parents protested,
but to no avail, He suddenly put his
thumbs under its chin and with his
fingers on top of its head crushed its
face in so that the blood gushed out
of its nose and mouth. Then he
seized the child by one foot and be-
gan swinging it around his head re-
Sisting all efforts of the terTOr-stTiCken
parents to stop him. When the child
was taken away from him it wa:
dead. The insane commission wa;
