PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

Counsel that favors your desires
needs careful watching
1t is always easier to forget bad
habits than to forego them.
The laws of friendship are austere
and eternal, of one web with the las
of nature.
A woman condemns faults in an
other woman's children which she par
dons in her own.
NO man can be brave who thinks
pain the greatest evil or temper ate
who considers pleasure the highest
good.
He only is advancing in life whose
heart is getting softer, whose blood
warmer, whose brain quicker, whose
spirit is entering into living peace.
1t is hard to believe that others can
not see what seems plain to us; but
we cannot see the sun at night; and
FOR all that it is quite plain to those
on the other side of the world. Every
thing is in the position one happens
10 occupy.
The habit of concentrating all the
powers for certain time upon a def
mite object is not gained without dis
cipline and practice. Many persons
meaning conscientiously to perform the
work that falls to their lot have, for
want of that habit never learned how
to do it with thoroughness and dis
patch.
The safeguard against temptation Is
not seclusion. but self-culture. AS it
is not disinfectants which will most
certainly secure one against infection,
but sound constitution, so it is not
rules of life which will strengthen one
against temptations, but soul. One
must build up his moral deed and high
thinking, by fellowship with pure
women and honorable men. The chief
aids in this regimen are literature and
friendship.

He has visited Chicago several times

He Makes
Sick Well

Another divine healer has sprung
up, this time in Illinois. He is a
Swiss hermit, Bernhard Wourth, who
lives at Eight Mile Grove, little set
tlement near Rock Falls. Hundreds
have visited his cabin that he might
place his hands on their heads and
cure them of their Affections. Accord
ing to a Rock Falls correspondent,
his healing is simple. All that he
does is to ask the seeker what disease
he is suffering from and then, after
pronouncing his first name three
times and muttering few mysterious
sounds, says, you be cured" and the
patient walks away well.
Wourth was born in Switzerland 65
years ago and came to this country
when young and has been a farmer
almost all his life until he accident.

his hand on the head of a sick child,

A Story That Goes to Show That Wal
Is Not All Tragedy.
War is not all tragedy. Our boys
on both sides in the civil war found
plenty Of time between battles to
amuse themselves with a variety OF
sports. In Kentucky there was some
sort of horse race every time an army
paused to take long breath. On one
occasion Lieut.. Saunders. of the -th
Kentucky, matched his Blue Grass
thoroughbred against wiry little
mustang owned by Capt. Garland, of
the til Texas, for $500 side
Saunders was to ride his own horse
but the captain, being large man,
had to find jockey for his mustang,
and in looking among the troops
chose young private in Saunders
own regiment, a Louisville boy of the
name of John Eston Keller, a cousin
Of the famous author of John Eston
Cooke.
The race was called on the follow
ing day at 3 o'clock. Saunders was
promptly at the post with his splendid
brown mare, but no rider appeared for
the Texans mustang Il got a young
chap to promise to ride last night,

Der his name and don't know where

1t was a half mile track somewhere
in the southern part of the state. and
the race being mile. the horses had
to go around twice. Soldiers thronged
the course, leaving only narrow
lane for .he contestants. Passing the
judges on the first lap. the mustang
was lying easily alongside the mare,
not having lost an inch. Capt. Gar

with your whip. He'll stand punish

race the other day. said: Il knew he

Their business Instead OF Destroying

Although the work Of destroying
derelicts at sea falls upon government
shoulders. it Is not little remarkable
that the work of salvage-the work Of

is entirely in the hands of private
corporations.
1t is an interesting experience to

of the great salvage "wrecking' COM

the majority of fine vessels that are
