"Oh, they'll all come home, like your

LESSON THOUGHTS.
1t was not intended that those to
whom Christ made known his purpose
OF grace should preserve it as a profound
secret. The command was and is, go
We and teach"
If we put forth no helping hand to the
poor and perishing it matters not what
pretensions to piety we may make, we
are not true disciples of Christ.
The more we have of the missionary
spirit the stronger do we become. I'm
watering Others, our own souls shall be
watered."
SELECTIONS.
The look of sympathy, the gentle word.
Spoken so low that only angels heard;
1 he secret act of pure self sacrifice
Unseen by men, but marked by angels
These are not lost.
The kindly plan devised for others good.
So seldom guessed, but little understood:
The quiet, steadfast love that strove to win
Some wanderers from the ways of sim
These are not lost.
Life is hard for many people, and we
have no right to withhold any look or
word or touch or act of love which will
Tighten the load or cheer the heart of any
fellow struggler. The best use we can
make OF our life is to live so that we
shall be benediction to every one we
meet.
shall pass through this world but
once. Any good thing therefore that l
can do, or any kindness that can show
to any human being, let me do it now.
Let me not defer it, or neglect it, for | |
shall not pass this way again.
Amid the snares misfortune lays
Unseen, beneath the steps of all,
BEST is the love that seeks to raise
ANA stay and strengthen those who fall;
Till, taught by him who for our sake
Bore every form of life's distress,
with every passing year we make
The sum of human sorrows less.
SUGGESTED HYMNS.
Throw out the life line,
Pass along the invitation.
Fading away like the stars of the morn
ing.
The morning light is breaking
Speed away, speed away.
Preach the gospel, sound it forth.

A call was once made by a dozen
noted artists of the Academy of De-
sign, in 1870, on Horace Greeley. Mr..
Clarence Cook, then the art critic OF
The Tribune, had been saying things
about the academy exhibition which
caused the venerable chiefs Of that es-
tablishment to boil with indignation.
One day committee went down to
The Tribune to complain. Mr.. Greeley,
having listened in silence to what these
gentlemen had to say, looked up from
his desk, a twinkle in his eye, and
said, with his peculiar nasal falsetto:
Gentlemen, I judge from your re-
marks that Mr.. Cooks articles are
widely read. They will therefore con-
tinue to be printed in The Tribune.
Good morning."

HOUSEHOLD"

The "EAsY-RUNNING HOUSEHOLD" is very
simple in construction, therefore more easily
operated, and less liable to get out of order
than any other machine. 1t is also a faster
sewer, as it makes more stitches to each
revolution of the wheel than any other vi
brating shuttle machine. 1t possesses more
space under arm than any other family sew
ing machine, which enables the operator to
sew bulky fabrics, and is self threading, ex-
cepting the eyelet in the needle bar. The
tensions are automatic, which enables the
operator to sew from the thinnest to the
thickest fabric without change of tensions.
Our new self threading shuttle possesses
| new device, which insures an even and
elastic tension that is not obtained in any
| other machine.

Fifteen Negroes Killed in New Mexico

There was pitched battle and whole.
sale killing between Mexicans and
negroes, who are working on the new
Rock Island extension in New Mexico
recently. The trouble originated in the
killing of Mexican by a negro some
weeks ago. The authorities undertook
to arrest the assailant, but his friends
interfered and they were obliged to with
draw. Some thirty.fve or forty Mex
leans armed themselves with Winchesters
and went after the negro. A battle took
place, in which fifteen negroes werekilled
and several wounded. The casualties
among the Mexicans cannot be learned.
The trouble occurred at Spencers
railroad camp, near Liberty, N.
M, in a sparsely settled por-
ton of the territory, where police
officers are few and the law is not rigid
ly enforced.
