At the close OF meeting in Joliet. Iii.
nors. ! sat down beside an honored evan.
ge,,ist, Rev. II. w. Brown, and among
other things in his career, he told me this
story
A number of years before he had A re-.
marrkable work OF grace in the lake region
OF Wisconsin in that town Of the strange
name. Oconomowoc. After his work Of
grace he returned one dav for n little visit.
and as he stepped off from the cars he saw
e,t the station an old man named James
stewart. Knowing him well he asked him
my ne was there. The old man replied
Ciat his boy had gone away from home
and had said to him. Father. I will re-.
turn some dav. but ] can not tell when I"
and said he. II am waiting for him to come
back" Strange rs it NAV seem. thirteen
years ,afterward he revisited that old town.
ana the first man he saw when getting off
rom the cars was this old father. He had
forgotten his story. but he met him. say.
ing, Mr.. Brown. he hasn't come vet. but
he will come, and am waiting" "Just
then, said my friend. "I lifted up nv
eyes and saw one walking down the aisle of
the car, and said to myself. If I was not
sure that the boy was dead I would saw
that that, was the son." But other eyes
had seen him. too. and with great bound

The Grace of ForretfuIness.

., II is said that to forget is more noble
than to forgive. One is a human possibi..
ity, and the other divine. Christian forges-
fulness is something different than mere
oblivion. One may know thing, and vet
be ignorant of it. God cannot forget in the
sense OF being ignorant OF the past. Oms
niscience involves all times and things.
DIVINE torgetfulness is simply to set an in
Jury aside. To draw the fangs from the
Jaws OF hate-this is possible else Chris
tlanity IS name and nothing else. Apart
from, all else personal happiness is only
possible through forgetfulness. To remem-
Der wrong is constant suffering. We
carry. our crosses until they are laid aside.
Nothing can be more unfortunate than this
ever-growlng habit OF recalling wronqs
The wound that is constantly exposed in
long in healing. Ii one has done you a
wrong. do not recall it. The memory OF
1t Will return at times. but do not seek To
revive 1t. For your own happiness let the
sleeping dog sleep on. We have known
many life rendered unhappy by this con
slant habit of recalling injuries. 1t be-
comes weakness. One lives over auaiu
all that he once suffered. The furies are
aroused to their maddest passions every
time the incident is related. And, further,
few are interested. The rent in your gar
ment, how it came there, by whom, is OF
little concern to others. Besides, it is the
most direct way of creating a suspicion
against yourself. Few quarrels are wholly
one.sided. There is usually a shadow on
both sides Of the fence. The belief may be
unexpressed; still it is there that all the
facts with their various shades and colors
are not present. 1t requires a strong man
to forget. As one is able to do this he au-
proaches the divine. The best way to for
get Is not to recall This we have said. ia
dlffieult; STILL it may be done. But should
the old wound ache. it is not necessary to
expose it. Further than this Gods grace
finds its highest Office just here. Our
sins and faults. do Thou, o God. forget.
This is a prayer whose answer is contin-
gent upon our, relations to others.-Presby-
terian Journal.

Drunk and disorderly" is the charge
lodged against nearly every arrest. The
saloon makes the drunk and the drunk
causes disorder and the taxpayer foots the
bill
Daring the year 1900 the people OF the
United States drank l 1876 402 SAP gallons
OF beer, which is nearly sixteen gallons foi
every man, woman and child in the coup
try.
The thing that needs reforming is the
man, not the saloon. The drinking man
does not wish reformed saloon and the
reformed man does not wish any kind OF
. saloon
The Tennessee Methodist makes a good
point: "A drinking man can stay in 0
church or even in pulpit, but he cannot
stay IN bank. Is money more valuable
than moralsv"
The proves of the drink trade, the
boldness OF the traffickers, the listlessness
OF the people, the impossibility OF awaken.
ing any deep concern for the fallen classes,
are enough to stir'a heart OF stone and
transform its coolest blood into kissing
steam.
To US II has always seemed that to pray
TO Almighty God TO take away the saloon
and then refuse to vote to assist Him in
the job IA a great sin. II the. traffic is
wrong, 10 vote for II is wrong; but il
sobriety, decency and righteousness are
right, II = right whenever necessary to
vote for them.

wealthlest Girl In the World.

There can be but little doubt that
the Grand Duchess Olga OF Russia
who has just attained her seventh
birthday, is the wealthiest little girl
In the world. Immediately after heI
birth something like a million pounds
was settled upon her, the huge SUM
being safely invested in England and
France. If she lives to reach her ma
jority her marriage settlement is like
ly to be the largest on record. No one
knows the extent Of the white czar's
wealth; 1t Is doubtful II he himself
does. He Is far and away the largest
landowner in the world. and he ha,
gold and other mines In Siberia which
bring in a revenue, the amount OF
which Is never made public.

The Doa Knew.

A retriever not long ago was sent
into a ditch to bring out a winged
partridge. The dog picked up the
scent, rushed along the bottom of the
ditch under the brambles, and after Q
little cropping about emerged on the
bank with an old rusty kettle, holding
1t by the handle. Laughter greeted
this performance.
Stop a bit." said the dogs master,
Here. Rover. give 1t to me-" And
the dog brought the kettle to him.
Taking 1t from his mouth. his master

Chased by the dog. It had crept into
the kettle to hide and the dog. not

Mistaken Notion About Leaves.

It is true that people often say that
the turning up of leaves is sign OF
rain. but the sign does not seem to be
very true one. declares the Monthly
Weather Review. There are many
kinds of trees like the silver-leaf pop
lars. in fact all the poplars, the maple
and some of the oaks. which turn
their leaves up whenever there is o
fairly strong steady wind. but they dc
It az much in clear weather as in
rainy. Possibly the belief may havs
arisen from the fact that winds cap
able Of turning leaves over very often
precede or follow rainstorms.

NEIMANN INSISTS
SHOT WAS DESIGNED
Washington County Farmer Says He
Will Make Complaint Against
Boys.

SALTWATER, MINI, July IA
Joseph Neimann, farmer, who was
shot Saturday at Carnelian lake while
herding cattle, is in no danger. He
arose from his bed on Monday and
was also up a part of yesterday. Mel
mann refuses to believe that the wound
was inflicted accidentally, which latter
impression was gained by the authori-
ties of this county, who are making an
investigation. The attending physician
says that he has been unable to find
any trace of shot, but has removed
small stones from the flesh Boys had
been shooting birds there during the
forenoon with powder and small stones
and he thinks they fired charge into
Mr.. Neimann. The latter claims to
know who the boys were and says he
will make out a complaint against
them when he gets around again.
There is no truth in the report that ht
was shot because of a long-standing
feud.
