MR. MARD EMS WHISK FRS.

There is always something happening
 and important thing that has happened there lately is the sad fate of the re- markable whiskers of William H. Mar ! den, of Stockton. When Mr. Marden's S | whislzers could be seen they were a
 sight. They grew out of his chin and
 out of the fact that when young he be- came tired of the everlasting shaving necessary to keep them within bounds, They perished because he was tired of
 answering questions about them. So
 the whiskers that began in weariness also ended in weariness. What Mir
 Mardens wonderful whiskers were can
 not be fully appreciated by those who
 did not see them waving reddish-brown
 in the soft wind that gently sweeps
 across the Kansas prairies. Two years
 ago they measured eight feet and six inches in length, and were still grow
 ing. Last week they were ten feet and four inches long, and though they rep resented the life and work of thirty years they were relentlessly moved off and cast into the furnace because Mir. Warden thought he had had to answer too many questions about them.
 It is evident that MT Warden is not an ambitious man If he were he might have made money out of his whiskers by exhibiting them in museums" or he might have acquired great reputation by exhibiting them in some places which are not looked on as museums. There are places in this region where such a wealth of whiskers would have given their possessor a corresponding wealth of reputation for wisdom, and in such places MT. Warden might have at tained high honors and pleasant and profitable employment for his talents But, like many other men, Mir Warden got weary at the wrong time and reck- lessly threw away his chances. Per haps he feels better without his whisk- CTS, but we cannot believe that even in Kansas he is generally regarded as bet ter than he was, or even as good, The glory of a woman is her hair, and many a man has been glorious because of his whiskers.

never amounted to much who was nev- | CT positively wicked, because that would have required more of an effort than he was willing to make He was, | however, far enough from being a good citizen, and Abner knew it as well as anybady else Abner was requested to ask a certain minister to conduct the services, and he hitched up his old horse and drove to his house. The minister said he would attend and then tried to get little in- formation concerning the late lamented.
 What sort of a man was he?" he asked
 Well, about the same as no sort of 8 man at all replied Abner, frankly. T suppose his loss will be deeply felt in the community" said the minister,
 They're all bearing up well under it." said Abner, slowly.
 Was he a Christian" asked the min ister
 "If he'd been accused of it, the yer dict would have been not guilty, and the jury wouldn't have left their seats," re- piled Abner, cheerfuly.
 Did he attend church?" asked the minister bit anxiously.
 T never heard of his doing it. said Abner
 How did he die?" continued the min ister.
 "Just the same as he lived-sort of naturally" said Abner.
 q don't see how I'm to preach much of a sermon under such circumstances, said the minister.
 "The neighbors all said they didn't think they wanted much of a sermon, and so they sent me over to see you, v said Abner.
 The minister pocketed his wrath and a five dollar bill, and after the funeral the satisfied Abner said, Well, we got just what we wanted, b'gosh. "-Lewis- ton Journal,

RRoTHER cARh1snE's NOTION

BROTHER CdRLJSLE'S NOTION
 It is astonishing how seeing things will. make things look. to some people, It is recorded that the Rev. C. B. Car lisle, an eX-army chaplain who has seen things in the Philippines, in ad- dressing the Presbyterian club of Syra- cuse the other day protested against the sending of Protestant missionaries to the Philippines. He regarded the Catholic church as "the great moral agency in the islands adding that all attempts to proselyte there are re- garded by the Filipinos as government interference with the generally recog- nized religion.
 Of course Brother Carlisle didn't see straight. It can't be possible that Protestant missionaries can fail to do good wherever they go. If the benight- ed Filipinos don't accept them at their true valuation so much the worse for the benighted Filipinos, and for the on- ward march of Christian civilization. It is to be hoped that no Protestant missionaries will be kept away from the Philippines on account of such notion as that held and promulgated by Broth CT Carlisle.
