1t is familiar adage that AN empty
house is better than a bad tenant"
But the dictate of wisdom Is that a
good tenant is better than a bad ten
ant, or than an empty house. There
is no safety in d house that is empty.
1t may become the abode of robbers
Or tramps, or a poor tenant may get
possession. 1t is always better to have
a house well filled with desirable ten
ants or guests, so that there Is safety
against the unworthy, and content
ment with that which is within. Jesus
tells us that whenz an. unclean spirit
has gone out of man, and the abode
was left empty, swept, and garnished,
that did not suffice, even though an
empty house is better than a bad ten
ant No, the one bad spirit took seven
others worse than himself and filed
np the empty abode, and the last state
Of that man was worse than the
arst." What we need in the abode of
our spirit is not emptiness nor bad
tenants, but fulness Of the right spirit
And that need God 10 ever ready TO

Should tho Minister Teach Bible Class
No. not If it can be avoided The
average minister has enough to do
besides. In many Sunday schools the
class comes after the morning service,
at the hour when the minister Is often
more exhausted than at any other hour
in the week. 1t demands, especially II
it be large class in which discussion
is free, the very best energies of it's
teacher, and the keen edge of the min
listers energy has already gone. The
average minister will teach his Bible
class on energy borrowed from his ner-
vous reserve. This much can be said
from his side: but there is something
to be said from the side of the class.
1t may be true that the minister
knows more about the Bible than any
one else in the church, but 1t does not
follow that he is the best teacher

The residence of Hiram Fulton of
HArtranft, Montgomery county, Pa,
presented scene OF CONSERVATION and
dismay several days ago when a
swarm of hornets took possession Of
the entire house unexpectedly.
Last fall Mr.. Fulton found an ex-
csilent species of hornets nest, and
finding it perfect and intact, he
thought it would make an excellent
ornament for his home. Acting on the
impulse, he took the nest home and
hung it in the parlor That portion
of the house was very little used dur
ing the winter and several days ago,
when his wife was preparing the house
for v sitors fire was started in the
parlor. The room soon became warm
and their attention was shortly at
tracted by loud buzzing. and the next
instant the room was filed with hor-
nets that came from the ornamental
nest. The heat caused them to come
out and resulted in a rush to escape
from the room. Several of the family
suffered from coming into contact
with the business end of the insects
and over an hours time was con-
sumed in driving them from the
house.

A mistake may be made in the home
that may be made for eternity. Not
withstanding all the power of a

lays it's iron hand upon the children

the mothers power, but greater may
be the power of the awful demons of

A Queer suicid. in A,..k..

The startling suicide of John DAILY
of Cowley, near Bennett. on the line
of the White Pass and Yukon Rail-
road. was the talk of Skagway when
the Dolphin departed south last Sun
day night, says the Seattle Daily
Times. The man took sure and eff
fective method of shutting off this
mortal coil. He cut hole in the ice
of the creek small enough to pass
through, squeezed himself down in
the aperture into the icy cold waters
and showed himself along under the
ice for several feet before he became
unconscious. The man made certain OF
his death. He cut the hole SO small
that there was not one chance in a
thousand of ever getting back through.
Then, very deliberately, he took off
his hat and forced his body down be-
meath the thick ice and SO close was
the flt that he scarified the flesh on
his shoulders.

There is one young matron of Hart
ford who will no longer wear her
watch when she goes into the kitchen
to bake pie. The baking of pie is the
only portion of the culinary work she
does and she does this because her
husband says it tastes like that
mother used to make"
Among the wedding presents of this
young matron was a handsome watch
which she thought SO much of that
she wore it on all occasions.
She decided to bake pie last Sat
urday, says the Hartford Courant All
went well until a short time after the
pie was placed in the oven, when she
discovered that her watch was missing
from her chatelaine on which it usual
~ hung on her dress. She hunted all
through the house, but could find no
watch. The husband returned home
and he was told of the mishap. The
wife became convinced that some per-
son had stolen the watch and she
could not be consoled.
The nice pie like mother used to
make" was brought on for dessert at
dinner yesterday, and generous por-
ton given the husband. He looked at
it and then asked his wife:
What kind Of pie do you call this,
