SENTENCE SERMONS.

(From the Chicago Tribune).
There's lot of difference between a
broad mind and a swollen head.
The light of the church does not de-
pend on the oiliness of the saint
There are people who never appreci-
ate the rose until they apprehend the
thorn.
Many saints are poor because their
piety is not vigorous enough TO stand
prosperity. u.H u.,. ,ro8
The well of truth would bela good
deal clearer if we would keep ouI
sticks out of it,.na .uv .. on,
1t always spoils your appetite for life
if you let your heart get puckered with
pessimism.
The man who can be trusted when
no one is looking will do work that all
will look at.
Heaven may be the home of praise;
hut it will do no harm TO let a few
cheers loose here.
Some men think that they are doing
a great deal toward remedyng this
worlds wrongs by reciting them.
Create a little heaven now and you
will not need to worry about your Gre
dentials for more of 1t by and by

dian has played pranks. Bishop Willis
not long ago wrote to DR.. Alexander
telling him of the curious effect it had
on the Seventh Day Adventists in Ton
ga. Tonga is east of the 1SOth meri-
dian while New Zealand is west of it,
Seventh Day Adventism was introduce
ed into Tonga from New Zealand. But
those who introduced it failed to take
note of the change at the 18Oth meri-
dian so that when they got to Tonga
they found the other Christians keep
ing, as they admitted, the proper day,
that is the seventh, for the Sabbath,
and so it happens that in Tonga Sew
enth Day Adventists and all other
Christians observe the same day as the
Sabbath.

Signs Favorable for a Bountifu1 Prune
Crop-The Big Orchard.

Up to the present the signs are
favorable for bumper prune crop
this season. The big prune or
chard is now snow white with
blooms, being in the height of the
blossoming season, aud the sight
presented is worth travelling miles
to see. A frost of few mornings
ago is not supposed to have done
any damage. Manager Johnson
was out to examine conditions in
the big orchard "Wednesday even
ing, and could discover no sign of
injury. The bees were working
industriously, and every thing fav-
orable for abundant fertilization.
Unless something unpropitlous hap
pens hereafter there should be a
! fine yield of prunes in every Or
chard in the vicinity. Of course
the acreage of prunes is consider
ably reduced in later years. A
number of orchards in this section,
as well as elsewhere, have been dug
up, while others have been aban-
doned to San Jose scale and other
pests so that their usefulness as
producers is practically nothing.
The prospect in the big orchard
now is for the best crop in its his
tory.
