Seeking the Truth.

Nicodemus represents a large multitude
OF men and women IN the world to-day.
He was seeking truth if not salvation for
his restless soul. He was so interested
that he did not wait until morning, but
came to Jesus by night. Some have sug-
gested that he did this not because of his
anxiety, but because he did not have the
moral courage to come to the unpopular
teacher by daylight If so the offense was
not an objectionable one for Jesus did
not even rebuke him. He welcomes the
coming Of the most timid the most
doubling, the most unworthy. Nicodamus,
like nearly all the world who know any
thing about Jesus recognized His moral
supremacy. They know He is a teacher
sent from God by the same test that
Nicodemus applied. But that compliment
is immaterial to the Christ That ac-
acknowledgement has no saving value. Elk
cept man be born again" is the ever
lasting sine qua non. the absolute and IT.
revocable condition for heavenly career.
How could Jesus have made palmer the
necessity of the New Birth" How is it
therefore that more than half the world,
more than half, perhaps. Of nominal Chris
tendon, are persistently searching for
some other way Why is it so? The
world appropriates other common bless
ings from Gods hands without demur or
question. His sunshine and sweet air are
taken greedilv and counted good Millions
have tested His plan of life, His way Of
salvation, and rejoice in the experience.
They give US their word that they find
JOY and peace. And yet the world is slow
to follow. Is it a sign Of a perverse heart,
or a constitutional incapacity to act in
ones own interest? Jesus was patient with
the slow believing Nicodemus. But He did
not have nearly twenty centuries Of
Christian testimony to bear witness to the
truth. That is why it will be less toll
cradle in the judgment for us than for
those Of Tyre and Sidon and the genera
tions that have gone to their reward and
doom. Rams Horn.

ours is a peaceful section" said
Col. Dan Turner of Memphis, Tenn, 10
a group of Western men who had been
discussing robberies, hold-ups and
crime in general. But when we do
thing down in Tennessee, we do 1t
right, and robbing people or corpo-
rations is done to the queens taste,
when one of our citizens sets out to
do it.
Not long ago it became necessary
for one of the railroads to build a
small branch line, and a traction en-
CINE was sent down there with the
first load of bodybuilding material to
haul ties on heavy trucks from a lit
tie mountain hamlet near where the
road was being built When the work
men had finished hauling the ties the
engine was placed alongside the road
until it should be convenient to haul
it away 1t remained beside the road
about six months, and when the con-
tractor came along to clear up, he was
rather amazed to find that nothing
but the boiler of the traction engine
remained where he had placed it, To
make matters worse, every bolt and
rivet that could be removed from the
boiler was missing, too. A search
was instituted but the missing parts
of the machine could not be found.
"0Some time after the theft of his
engine the contractor had occasion
to drive through the country again,
and stopped at negro's blacksmith
shop to have a shoe fastened on his
horse. While the smithy was at work
the contractor walked around the
shop, and to his amazement found in
one corner of the place the missing
parts Of his engine He Immediately
charged the negro with stealing it
and the man admitted Lis guilt. When
the contractor had recovered from his
surprise at the find, he asked the
smithy why he had not taken the
boiler, too, and the latter replied that
he was making tackle to take to the
roadside and lift the boiler into his
wagon when The contractor took the
thing away. WASHINGTON Post.

Conscience is Gods deputy in Che soul
Immortality is the glorious discovery Of
Christianity.
Christ reckons not by what is parted
with, but what is kept.
1t is a weak religion that a man can
hide from his household
A conscience void Of offense before God
and man. is an inheritance for eternity.
There is no human life 50 poor and
small as not to hold many divine posi-
bility.
Humility is the altar upon which God
wishes that we should offer Him our sacri.
fees.
The same spirit Of faith that teaches
man to cry earnestly, teaches him to wait
patiently.
More dear in the sight of God and His
angels than any other conquest Is the
conquest of self.
No true work since the world began was
ever wasted; no true life since the world
began has ever failed.
To love God Is our happiness, to trust
in Him is our repose, to surrender our
selves entirely to His viii is our strength.

SENATOR HAWLEY,S HEALTH.
Friends Urging Him to Take Much
 Needed Rest.

Sad stories regarding Senator 'Joe' Hawley have been coming from Washington lately. Tn these stories friends Of the senator see only what some years ago they feared was com ing. It is no longer q secret that the popular statesman from Hartford is not enjoying robust health and his friends are trying to induce him to take a rest. But the senator is per- sistent. He sees duty before him and he feels he must go through with ir. It is this dogged persistence on his part that arouses the anxiety of his friends. who feel that a complete collapse cannot long be put off unless he IS persuaded to retire from public view for q time. Those who are constantly associating with him see the danger more than those who are conversant with it merely through the private intercourse of Washington society, and the latter, therefore can not thoroughly appreciate the situa- ton.
 About the time the Spanish war burst upon the country Senator Hawley was first observed to have undergone q surprising physical change. Fa-
 
 Yoring intervention in Cuba from the outset he necessarily underwent great physical strain during the long. months of argument in Washington that pre- ceded the final rupture between Spain and the United States and to this was attributed the great change which was very noticeable in him at that time. Some of his Hartford friends E h icy< -0ln 4l. senate on that ground They feared he would be unable to stand the strain of another term and they are begin. ming to see the realization of those feelings.
 Senator Hawley has been in polit- ieal harness since before the civil war. He is about 77 years old and has witnessed many stirring scenes in his day. He has been in Wash. ington about 40 years

ROBSON ON RETIRED LIST.

Washington. Feb 1s.-The president sent message to the senate yesterday recommending the retirement of Naval Constructor Richmond P. Hobson. Tn accordance with this recommendation, Senator Gallinger immediately intro- duced a bill providing for Mir Hob sons transfer to the retired list. In his message. the president says that his reason is the trouble that Mir Hob- son has had with his eyes since June. 1900. and recites the history of that trouble. It appears that i'll June, 1900, he was admitted to the naval hospital at Yokohama, Japan, suffering from weakness of the eyes and retinitis. which infirmities were contracted while he was on duty repairing ships at Hong Kong. In January, 1902, he was examined by a retiring board. which decided that his incapacity was not such as to justify retirement.

D1sPENsARY AT FACTORY.

Waterbury Manufacturing Company
 Has Established One at Its Plant.
 The waterbury Manufacturing com many has established at their plant dispensary where those who may be ;nil1red while at work in the factory shall be attended, to by the com pany's physician, Dr Lally This company is the pioneer concern in the state in establishing this idea as an adjunct to a manufacturing plant. Its usefulness where machinery of all kinds is employed cannot be too much appreciated by the employees. Acci- dents happen in the best regulated families and manufacturing plants are not exempt from them. Hitherto the Waterbury Manufacturing com pany had their employees who were hurt attended to at their homes. In this respect, also, this concern stands out particularly, as all other concerns pay for only the first dressing. The old plan employed by this concern was found to be unsatisfactory, for emergencies often arise in injuries take the attending physician unex- pectedly and callse both him and his patient great inconvenience. The dispensary Is expected to meet all re- quirements. Injuries that cannot be treated at the dispensary will. as be- fore under the old plan, be treated at the patients home. free, like before, of all expense. Here is an example for other manufacturing concerns to follow.
