A Few Things the Bible Tells You.

AS general rule railroad men are not
very ardent Bible students, but there is
one in Montpelier who has been posting
up a little on scriptures and he found
some interesting passages in that Book
of books. Here are a few which he
has requested us to publish: If your
pocket book is empty, read the 9th
Psalm; if the people seem unkind, peruse
the 18th chapter of John; if you are dis
couraged about yonr work, read the
126th Psalm; if you are all out of sorts,
turn to the 18th chapter of Hebrews; if
you are losing confidence in men, read
the 18th chapter of Corinthians; if you
cant have your own way in everything
read the Bird chapter of James and keep
quiet.
