The Unfortunate Druggist.

A druggists night bell rang
loudly in the small hours, and
when he went down he was met
by placid man, who asked for a
bottle of ginger ale. The drug
gist's feelings were strong, but be-
ing there, he resolved to do BUSH
ness.
A nickel extra for the bottle"
said he, will be allowed on re-
turn" and he went back to bed.
Two hours later the night bell
rang again. Again the druggist
went down.
Again he was met by the placid
man.
Here's your bottle, " said he;
gimme my nickel"

was simply this: to get my "self-centred" friend
good man and true, as l believed him to be- to
give the money, with the belief that in "waterino
others, he also himself would be watered." This
however, was not so easy to accomplish as it is to
write about
The first time the subject was preached he
shook his head He could not do it. l argued the
question with him, setting forth the benefits |
thought, would to him on the one hand
and to the children the other, and asked him
to think about it and pray it, and told him
l would see him again. l did see him again and
again, and in short time he authorized me to pur-
chase the library. When the books arrived at
Amelia Court House they were placed in neat
case made in the village and furnished with lock
and key. l informed the donor of the fact, and
asked him to be present at Sabbath school the next
Sunday that he might the children take out
the books. He was there on time | was also
and can now recall the serene and bright smiles Of
pleasure which wreathed his countenance and ex
pressed his satisfaction l think it was one of
the happiest days of his life. He was on a higher
plane of Christian thought and activity. His
sympathies were broader. In blessing others, he
himself had been blessed.
Some months after this, Rev. DIR. ]. M. P. At
kinson, president of Hampden- Sidney College
came down to Amelia for the purpose of raising
money for the college. | drove him around to see
the gentlemen in the upper part of the county
who would probably cooperate in his effort, each
OF whom, with one exception, gave him hundred
dollars The last man approached was the former
ten dollar man. later "the thirty dollar man."
who now, on the statement of the case by Dr. At
kinson, without persuasion and as matter OIL
privilege mounted up to the position of "the one
hundred dollar man" broader, better, happier
Christian man. What transformation! Yet
how simple the process by which it had been pro-
duced! 1t is open to every Christian who will
abandon the "self-centred" attitude and do some
thing in accord with his means for the glory OF
God and the good of his fellowmen

A DANGEROUS DECISION.
By Daniel S. Gage, Phi. D.

tremely important that the Church shall come to
clear and definite decision before the action

precedent And this is important, now, for two
reasons.
I. This is the first case in the history of our
Assembly in which the vote to Sustain in part

one or the other side. AT least there is no record
OF similar case in the admirable and very cor
rect Digest of DIR. Alexander. There is as vet
no precedent. We should be careful what one is
set. The fact stated by DR.. Law in his article
mat some OF those so voting protested against
the manner in which their votes were used in the
decision, shows that the mind of our Church is as
yet not defined upon this subject Inasmuch as
the case against DIR. Caldwell will presumably not
be revived in this connection the matter of such

The action Of Game and Fish Com
missioner, Woodward, anent the fish
decision Of the Supreme court is a
surprise and Disappointment to many
of his friends. The commissioner
proposes, since the decision, to exact
from ranchmen through whose prop
erty trout streams flow, signed
statement that they will allow the
public to fish on them premises. II
these agreements are not secured the
streams affected will not be stocked
with fish by his department. Mr..
Woodward is biting of his nose to
spite his face And his i'll .humor
will be vented on the fisherman in
stead of on the ranchmen. AS rule
the ranchmen through whose prop
erty these streams run do less flsh-e
ing on them than the public does.
We can name q number OF these
ranchmen acquaintances located on
trout streams, who never go fishing
at all. The farmer situated so that

ular stream or portion of 1t, constit-
utes very small part of the populat-
ion. Hence it is the greater part of
the population upon whom the COM
mnlissioner is venting his spleen.
AS general thing the ranchmen,
whom Mr.. Woodward proposes to
coerce, don't care rap whether he
ever plants" solitary fish or not SO
he is not frightened by, or interested
In, the commissioners unique conuct.
Many ranchman who has no object
ion at all to fishermen on his premises
is notwithstanding, not going to put
his signature to q paper depriving
him of rights given him under the
law whether he cares to exercise
those rights or not. Mr.. Woodward
is acting more like a schoolboy in a
pout. than like q man occupying a
high position in one of the executive
Of the state. Concilliat-
ion might be more successful than
coercion in this case.-Eagle County

Pike Centennial.

Colorado Springs is making elabor-
ate plans to celebrate the one hum
dredth anniversary Of the discovery
Of Pixies Peak, the chief scenic at-
traction of the state. The govern
ment will send 10000 regular troops
to take part in the program, in addit-
ion the Representatives of the various

children and citizens generally will
take part. There will be parades,
tournaments of polo and golf, auto
mobile endurance runs, drills, war
dances by Indians, cowboy sports
and exercises of all kinds typical Of
the wild west"
No celebration of similar magnit-
ude has ever been attempted in the
state. 1t will mark the centennial
anniversary Of the advent OF the first
representative American citizen In
the Pixies Peak region, since become
famous for its scenery, gold, cattle
and agriculture.
Zebulon Montgomery Pike, dis
coverer of the peak that bears his
name, was born January s. l779, at
Lamberton, New Jersey. He was a
son of General Zebulon Pike Of
Revolutionary fame, the family set
tling in America in 1885. When only
25 years Of age, Pike was chosen to
head an exploring party through the
Rocky Mountain region, then the
territory of Louisiana. He first
sighted the Peak on November l5,
1903, and on November "a reached It's

to the summit, declaring that the
