the nest may be a great layer, but
If some other hen were not employ

her breed would speedily become ex-
tinct.
II Beecher's church had been less
independent, and had more perfectly
kept the step with the great Con-
EDUCATIONAL body his ministry would
have been a thousand fold more
fruitful. Many erratic utterances
he would have suppressed long
enough to think twice about them,
and then he would not have said
them at all. He would have felt
more responsibility for what he
said. and would not have been so
reckless at times. 1t would have
saved him many Inconsistencies Of
speech-and doubtless some irreg-
ularities Of conduct.
If DR.. Deems could have left the
church of the Strangers incorpora-
ted in some such body as the old
North Carolina conference, of which
he was once a member, the fruits
of his toll would not so quickly
have disappeared.
If DR.. Talmage had identified his
work more perfectly with the Pres
byterian church 1t would thereby
have been foreordained to last long
err. When his tabernacle was con-
-sumed by flames another structure
would speedily have risen in it's
place, and another man could now
carry forward his work. AS it is
his work has ended.
Independentism may be a very fine
thing, but it is very transient in
fits hold on men. That one may
speak today in one way and tomor-
row may feel at liberty to deny all
he thought today, may be very ex-
hilarating; but in the long run it
does not command confidence. Men
say of a man who does so, We'll,
doubtless he is very honest, but he
is not safe. He always says what
he thinks, but he does not think
enough to have the same opinion
two days in succession"
Comets attract more attention
while they last than all the stars
in the heavens; but men do not sail
by them. Fixed stars only are re-
liable guide-posts for the mariner
in the trackless deep.
Moreover, preaching simply to en-
terrain a crowd is somewhat Of
profanity. 1t is much as il the mes
senger of God. commissioned to
proclaim eternal truth, should re-
nounce his high calling to win wages
and applause as a harlequin. But
preachers who hire themselves to a
congregation rather than attach
themselves to a cause may easily
yield to the ever present tempta-
ton to please the men who hire
them rather than the Saviour who
redeemed them.
Nor are men greater for being in
dependent. Storrs was great
enough. His influence went far be-
yond the limits of his denomination.

the former featherweight champion
has signed articles to box his old

stipulate that the pair are to meet for
fifteen rounds before the National

a draw after six spirited rounds
Since that. time both have deteriorated

On the evening of that day, I watched
for the appearance of Mr.. Dane with
a certain amount of excitement. Ifela
as though 1 was going to find the dia.
mond that night. Presently he APP.
peared as usual in his pumps and cha1s
lenged me to game Of billiards.
would rather not have played, but
accepted his challenge, and we had
game.
Tt seemed terrible long game, but
at last it was finished, and he made
his way to the snoking-room, while
made my way 10 his bedroom. closed
and locked the tloor and then started
to try the various keys Almost the
first key fitted, and opened the bon
and got out the shoes. They were o.
common make, and there appeared to
be nothing out of the way about them.
r noticed, however, little cut in the
heel of the right shoe, and put my
finger in this cut and gave it pull
but it remained firm.
examined it very carefully, and
discovered the head of small nail
driven into the heel from the side,
and, as this could serve no purpose
there, and, moreover, as it was black.
ned over so that it could hardly be
seen without very close inspection,
naturally thought it might have some
purpose, so / got my knife from my
pocket, and putting it under the head,
levered it up. 1t came QUIT easily
enough, and then pulled the top OF
the heel right oEt and there, snugly
resting in bed of cotton wool, lay
the missing diamond!
1 took 1t out and looked at it BY the
light of the candle. 1t was a mag-
mense value.
AT this moment some one tried the
door, and / fancied / heard an ex-
clamation of rage and then hurrying
of feet downstairs. rushed toward
the door and was just in time to see
Mr.. Dane disappearing out of a door
which led into the grounds. Ishouted
out to the gentlemen that the man
who stole the diamond was but a few
yards away, and they Joined in the pur-
suit. We were not long in catching
him.
Mr.. Middleton would not at first be-
lieve 1t was Mr.. Dane who stole the
diamond, but when l showed him the
shoe with a sliding heel, he realized
how his confidence had been abused.
So you see that criminals should be
very careful. if they have any part of
their anatomy missing. even if il Is
only the half Of a tooth. Mr.. Dane is
still in the stone business, but he is
