REFLECTION OF A LAYMAN.
(By the Religious EditorD


Let him rejoice who hath employment
and family. and a home; who SPEND
eth his wages with care, who loveth his
Mife and children and maketh his abid-
ms place like unto heaven. Let him
rejoice thrice over if he have no thirst
fol office. no lust for power and knoweth
not the evil yclept politics which is an
determination in the sight of the Lord. He
- indeed, blessed if he wot not of the
strife which goeth on at Helena where
the sons of men and other living things
are many fathoms deep in inquity,
which passeth all understanding. and
aNaileth not for any righteous purposes.
Whosoever knoweth not Aesop f.
Sprisgs the labor candidate, who tolls
not neither does he spin: and John Re-
former Toole, keeper of the only con-
science in the capital, and John Mae
Glnnis. who hath the wisdom of SER
pent--whosoever knoweth not not these
men, verify is he lucky dub, for they
have cards up their sleeves and guile
is in their hearts, and their steps take
hold on hades. Happy only is he who
hath no pull and voted at his own eX-
pense. His sleep will be sound and his
waking moments full of peace, and his
credit at the market place without limit.
He will be able to look his wife in the
face even in the daylight. and the well
coming smile of little children will give
! him joy when he goeth to his abode as
the evening falleth. Election whiskey
and campaign cigars will not make him
smell like a consolidated tannery and
glue factory, and his wife will not be-
seech her Father which art in heaven
! that the next time her LEG lord shall
/ come home on shutter he may be dead.
instead of only dead drunk.
| And so I say unto all men: Keep out
of politics: repress all desire for office;
! avoid acrimonious argument about those
who lust for office. Tear not your h. il
| no, miss your meals nor quarrel with
i your man servant or your maid servant
nor bet your money nor your horse nor
your goat nor your ass in wicked con-
tention with your neghbors. Save thy
duoats to make beautiful your home
ennoble your children, pay your bills
and mind your business, for that is the
straight and narrow path to peace and
joy. Only the politician lamenteth his
lot. reproacheth himself for living and
| inGuireth why he was born But no mar
maketh reply, for no man knoweth the
| riddle thereof.

QUEER, But All RIGHT.

Kansas IS full Of queerness every
year, and isn't full of corn this year.
but Kansas Is all right. Governor
Stanley of that State says so, and he
ought to know. He can even see a
blessing for Kansas in the drought.
He argues that If the corn crop had
not been destroyed, immigration would
have doubled the farming population of
the western third of the State, with re-
suits that would have been disastrous.
The governor points out that this re-
gion is peculiarly and only fitted for
stock purposes, and that the attempt to
divert it from this use has been twice
attended with failure.
This is coming out about as strong
as Mark Tapley used to when sur
rounded by circumstances which We're
not especially cheering. But it is
solid and cheering fact that the farm
ers of Kansas have $40, 100000 more on
deposit now than they had four years
ago. to say nothing of the millions of
dollars of Indebtedness which has been
