A PREACHERS REBUKE.
Twice Heard in Different Places
1t Excited Suspicion of Pre-
meditation.

"In New York several months ago I
who delivered remarkably eloquent
Sermon" said the travelling man,
according to the Philadelphia Times.
"Just as the minister was in his
peroration he suddenly stopped, took
off his spectacles, and in a voice of
censure, remarked:
Il will be very much obliged if that
young man in the rear part of the
church will cease his conversation
''He then replaced his spectacles
and proceeded with his sermon. AS
[ happened to sit in the rear part of
the auditorium, I felt rather sur
prised at the interruption, for while
there were many young men present
in that part of the edifice, I did not
notice the least conversation.
''Not long ago, the same preacher
was invited to Philadelphia to preach
on special occasion. 1 went again
to hear him. Tony surprise, he took
the same text and delivered the same
sermon. ] was more than surprised,
as he reached his peroration, to see
him remove his spectacles and give
expression to the same rebuke in eX-
actly the same language as he had
done in New York. l could not help
arriving at the conclusion that he had
a place marked somewhere in his
manuscript for administering re-
buke whether it was needed or not,
and that perhaps his intention was
to attract particular attention to
something he was about to utter"

lionaire Swiss banker asking him to try to
help his son get job in some mercantile or
shipping house, to learn the business. The

MY EVERLASTING HOME.

I've often thought with rapture Of the
time-perhaps it's nigh
When angel hands shall beckon me from
mansions in the sky;
When from the realm of glory, swift
messenger shall come,
And bear me Ger the river to my ever
lasting home.
I've wondered If the messenger will come
at noon or night
Or mid the hush of eventide, will burst
upon my sight;
Perhaps my fading eyes shall see mid
night starry dome
When 1 receive the summons to my ever
lasting home.
I'll see the loved ones yonder whom I've
missed these many years;
I'll see the blessed Master who has BAN
ished all my fears;
Yes, welcome will the message be no mat
ter where l roam,
That bids me cross the river to my ever
lasting home.

Marriage in Arabia

With the Arab first cousin of the
gentler sex holds an option on the
young man, and if he desires to wed
outside of the family he must first
renounce her and secure his release.
The next in line is his deceased broth
er's widow. AS Arabia and Turkey are
polygamous countries there is often a
chance to provide for several who may
have first claims on the bridegroom

1t is not an easy matter to gain the
