Aim Of Christian Efforts.

No man can win a worthy prize with

the reward of victory. Moral likeness

Christian efforts To dream of the
glory and felicity of heaven is our priv
ilege.-Rev. G. 3. Nosburgh, Baptist,

Spiritunlizing the Mind.

When the mind is spiritualzed, the
Kingdom of God will stand revealed,
and we shall all become partakers of
the divine nature, discovering that in
the kingdom of God all are gods. BY
the incarnation of the Christ elements
and purposes is man made perfect

An old custom was for friends to
Write their names on stones and break
them, each taking q part that would
match the other and always vouch the
identity OF him who presented it, Who
now offers to break Il friendly stone
with US? 1t is the Christ himself.
That will be the happiest day in heav-
Ell when we can match the white stone
Jesus gives us and be called his per
sonal friend.-Rev. DIR. Alonzo Monk,
Methodist, Atlanta.

Operation of Divine Grace.

The operation of divine grace is ex-
ceptional. There are penalties affixed
to The violation of all laws This IA
true of the laws of nature, of health
and of God. But by the mystery Of

given and the guilty goes free.-Rev.

GIANT or THE AROOSTOOK DEAD.
Feats OF . NE swede Who Has Just suo'
cumbcd TO Fever In Maine.


BANGOR. Me. Jan. Is.-Aroostook county's
giant, John Brostrom Of Woodland, Ia dead
at the age OF 80. Brostrom was a swede,
stood @ feet 7 inches in his stocking feet
and weighed. when In good health. 2e7
pounds.
There was not an ounce OF fat on his
huge frame. He was much the strongest
man in northern Maine, and many stories
are related of remarkable feats accom-
plished by him.
He once. by sheer strength, started a
log Jam that had for three days defed the
efforts Of twelve river drivers. On another
occasion no carried on his shoulder TO the
mill a hardwood log that would have been
a load for four ordinary men. had IL sawed
into boards and carried the boards strapped
TO his back a distance Of two miles to his
home.
Brostrom could lift barrels Of potatoes
| into a high wagon with less effort than
most men make TO lift n bushcl. AID his
services were In great demand nj the rails
ing Of barns. He would pick up the heavy
timbers like so many light joists and place
them in their proper position while the
others were getting ready TO INT
When there was a fire his fail-like arms
would bring down the brakes 81 the hand
tub on one side faster han four or five
of the fremen could lift up OF the other
side, and the small boys said that he was
as good as a steamer.
A fever carried the giant on, and all
Woodland and tho other Swedish coionists
mourued. he died ia a ~second-loor room,
and his casket was 20 long that u could
not BE- carried down the stairs and had 10
Ice taken out NJ a window.

he needs Is a little money n some time In
which TO arrange matters on the other. side,
lie Gays. In the meantime his daughters
support themselves by giving music lessons
and sewing, | think
A somewhat similar story Ia told OF a
Roumanian Jewess who came here to plead
with her two well-to-do brothers for dowrles
for her own aud her sisters daughters.
Letters had proved powerless 10 move the
brothers, no II WIS decided to send the sister
as a representative Of the Family to make
life a burden to them until the brothers
gave her a suitable marriage portion Tor
every marriageable niece OF theirs.
The two brothers received the newcomer
warmly, but said America was not the
country where money could be had ior
the picking, and that they did not believe
in Roumanian matches anyhow. Every
body was starving there, and TO give a Few
hundred francs TO a bridegroom who could
not make his living would be foolish. Their
plan was TO have the CIR come to America.
We'll give you steamship tickets Tor
them, That's the kim Of marriage portion
well give them" declared the elder OF the
brothers. sWhen they come wen support

The woman few into a passion and re-
minded her brothers OF the time when they
would have starved II II rae not been Tor
the dinners she cooked for them. As her
brothers remained obdurate she made up
her mind to stay here until she earned
the desired sum herself.
She took to peddling, and, unlike tho
father Of the six daughters, she is a declded
success. She has saved money enough
to marry of her own two daughters, and
she expects 10 save the rest in a very short
time.
"Tn show nv brothers I can get along
without them" she saws.
Whether she win take the money 70 Rou-
mania Is not certain, however, for what
ever she NAV think Of her brothers sh g

Young men Of her native place and those

vantage Of the latter.

her husband and her daughters, said the
Wholesale merchant with whom she deals
-She has a remarkable business instinct.
She will be very rich some day. The idea
Of her dropping all her chances In this coun-
try just to carry out her threat Is prepos-
terous.'

good reason that their respective trotters

two mares owned by Messrs. Burke and
