JUDGING BY APPEARANCES.
ercfsed In Forming Estimates
of Others Actions.

We have almost daily examples Of the
mistake of judging byiappearances. An
| act seems to bear but one construction,
and that against the character of GER
tain person. Or report comes to us
that seems to be so we'll authenticated
and is told with so much attention to
details that mistake seems to be out Of
the question. And yet, says the North
western Christian Advocate, when all
the facts are in, a single circumstance
that was overlooked changes the whole
complexion OF the actor of the story.
At one Of the Waterloo banquets the
duke of Wellington, the hero Of the
famous battle, handed around for the
examination OF the guests a presenta-
ton snuff box set with diamonds. All
at once it disappeared. Some one sug-
gested that everyone present turn his
pockets inside out for careful inspec-
ton. All the guests agreed to this but
one old officer, who refused, and when
the point was insisted upon left the
room. OF course suspicion fell upon
him and he was given very decided
cold shoulder. The next year the duke
at the banquet happened to put his hand
into the pocket of his coat and there
found the snuff box He went at once
to the old officer and apologfzed. He
found him living in wretched garnet,
Asked why he had not consented to have
his pockets examined when the box was
missed the officer replied: ST VIVA carrv
ing home some pieces of meat for my
family, who were then almost dying Of
starvation, and didn't want to have
anyone know how poor we were"
When the great duke heard the story he
cried like child and did all in his power
to atone for the wrong that had been
done, but Of course he could not entirely,
but he learned well the lesson not to
Judge by the outward appearance.

i the fullness OF Gods time. Did you
ever realize what this meant? Over and
over again is this expression used in
Gods Word as referring to the operation
of the Divine will and purpose. Man
blunders, but God never. Man SPOTS by
too early or too late reaping, but God
always thrusts in the sickle at the right
time. The due season of reaping is re-
allied when there is patient waiting upon
God. In the fullness OF time God sent
His Son into the world. In the fullness
Of time Christ was offered upon the cross
as a sacrifice for sin. In the fullness Of
time He rose from the grave and ascend
ed into Heaven; and in the fullness of
time the Holy Spirit descended and filed
with precision. This ought to cheer and
encourage the heart Of the Christian
whose well doing is doing the will Of
God. No anxiety and worry because
the day of reaping does not come
In due season we shall reap" God
says, and we can afford to wait. The
farmer does not set the day OF harvest
in the springtime after he has planted
his crop He tends and cultivates tho
field and waits. Nature may bring an
early harvest, or she may delay the ma
turing Of the grain SO that the day of
reaping is matter of great uncertainty,
but all the farmer can do is wait until
the right time has come, then the sound
Of the reaper and the thrasher is heard.

Chiffon, Wis, July "a find Of gold
that may equal Cripplt. Creek or III
Dorado has been located on the farm
of George Howe, of Stockbridge, in this
county. For the past twenty years a
gravel pit on his farm has been open
tc the town of Stockbridge for road
making purposes. This spring Mr..
Howe picked up a piece of rock that
had dropped from one of the wagons
being loaded at the pit. He observed
a number of minute flakes of duly
shining substance, and. thinking 1t
might pe the precious metal, took IL TO
Oshkosh. where it was assayed.
The test showed the presence of gold
in quantity that justifies the hope
that a mine of wonderful wealth may
be developed The sample ran 5000 to
the ton. and there are, it is said, thou
sands OF tons of the same stuff in the
pit. Howe is a man over 80 years OF
age, without capital, and unless he can
interest others with money enough to
test thoroughly, the lode discovered
nothing will be done.
The formation of the Land about the
mine shows plainly the work of for
mer water course or lake. The pay
dirt was found at depth OF eight feet.

Chicago and Waukegan are trying to
locate Fred Wallace. 52-year-old de-
ceiver. who is wanted for forgery, theft,
and possibly abduction. He left here

checks he had secured and cashed by
forging Endorsements from borrowed
railroad tickets. From Chicago he
wrote that he had been married to
Martina Carlson. a girl whom he had
Induced to go with him.
Wallace was well known and was
trusted by many, as until recently he
had given no trouble. He worked for
Mrs. Perrin, who conducts fashion
able dancing hall. He is charged with
forging Mrs. Perrin's name to two
checks he secured from her mail. He
also secured two checks of her mother
Mrs Crockett, which he cashed, and
also victimized w. P. Higley, Percival
Pearce, and Mrs. Wainwright.
The forgeries are clever ones. A
warrant is out for his arrest, and he
is thought to be in Chicago. If caught
he may be charged also with kidnap-
ping the girl, as she was not of age
and her parents object to her marrying
an aged man.
