A SURE CURE FOR GHOSTS.

The late Bishop of London had a
fine sense of humor, as this story re-
lated by the New York Tribune we'll
illustrates:
Some years ago, when Bishop
Creighton was Bishop of Peter
borough, he was the guest, during
a confirmation tour in the diocese,
at an old manor house, and slept one
night in a room supposed to be haun-
ted. Next morning at breakfast he
was asked whether he had seen the
ghost.
eyes" he replied, with great So
lemnity, "but 1 have laid the spirit.
1t will never trouble you again"
Being further questioned upon the
subject, the bishop said, "The ghost
instantly vanished when I asked for
a subscription toward the restora-
ton of Peterborough Cathedral"

CLERKS WHO HATE THE YARD STICK.

In many a store there are clerks
who are longing to succeed, and won
dering why they are not advanced !;
clerks who hate the yard stick and
long to get into some more congenial
pursuit. No one will ever truly sue
coed who does not fall in love with
his vocation, until his whole heart
and soul give their consent to what
he is doing.
Half the world seems to have
found uncongenial occupations.
Servant girls are trying to teach !;
natural teachers are tending stores ;
good farmers are numbering law,
while ChOates and Websters are run
ming down good farms; and good
farmers, in turn are farming still in
Congress. Artists are spreading
daubs on canvas who should be.

ShOemakers write good verses for

gregations continue to sleep, while
the Beechers are failing as mer-
chants.
A boy who steals away, at every
opportunity, to make something
with the tools which he hides in

THE GREATER MIRACLE.

It does not seem to US u wonderful
thing that d watch-maker should be
able to pick up the scattered pieces
Of a watch and put them together IN
d perfect time-piece. We do not
look upon it as a miracle when soiled
scraps of paper are put through n
certain process and come out white
and beautiful and whole again. And
it is no more wonderful that the
God who made us can fashion US
anew even after deaths long sleep.
The greater miracle is something
we can see every day, when men
pass from death to life before
eyes. The prcfigate who has been
absorbed in degrading pleasures be-
comes pure in thought Is well as IN
HE. The son who has torn his
mothers heurt by his unkindness Is
tender. thoughtful and loving. The
g.ri VIII, has never cared for any
thing but having her own way, puts
the good of others before her own
pleasure. The spiritual resurreo-
ton, the awakening from the death
OF sin TO the life OF Christ-llkeness,
Is the miracle Of the ages. And one
VINO has proved Gods power In the
greater thing, will not fear to trust
him for the less.-SeleCted.
