Last Sunday Rev. Andres preached
sermon on the doctrine of God. 1t
was based on the following text, Deu.
4 The Lord our God is one Lord. -
This sermon was an exposition of the
Westminster Standards on this sub
ject. The description OF God in the
Shorter Catechism is the most com
plete found in any document of theo-
logical thought. God i Spirit
infinite. eternal and Interchangeable,
in his being, wisdom. power. holiness,
justice, goodness and truth. There
is but one only. the living and true
God. There are three persons IN the
Godhead the Father. the Son, and
the Holy Spirit; and these three are
one God, the same in substance,
equal in power and glory.
The sermon was concluded with a
few practical remarks on man rela.
ton to God.

BoYIsH DESIRE FOR WORK.
Often q Sign Of Arrested Development
Instead of Strength.

Parents often think that their son Is
especially promising because he wants
to get to work young wants to leave
school and be earning. This Is never
sign of strength, but always of weak
ness. When a boy wants to get to
work instead OF getting ready to work
1t indicates arrested development
There is not one probability in fifty
that boy who desires to leave school
at the sixth grade and is allowed to do
so will ever amount to anything. 1t Is
not the fact that he does not have as
much education as the other boys. but
that he does not have their purpose to
get ready for the doing of things.
Teachers often greatly err in dealing
with such boys and their parents by
trying to show how important II Is
that they should know what they will
learn in the seventh and eighth grades,

"Home" In Our LANGUAGE.

In no other language, according to
the London Telegraph, is there word
expressing the ideas and associations
which are aroused at the sound Of the
simple vet heart touching word "home."
A Frenchman once translated Cardinal
Newman's hymn, Lead, Kindly Light"
and in his hands the beautiful line
"The night is dark, and I am far from
home" became la mutt est sombre, ct
je suis loin de mon foyer" the trans
lator having been obliged to use for
home the French word which describes
the green room Of theater. The Ital-
ian and Spanish ''casa," the German
"haus"-their "heim" Is too general to
have any particular value-and the
Russian "doma" all refer to building
Of some kind or other and have none Of
the memories and associations that
cluster round the precious English
word.

Horses on Snow shoas.

Horses wear snowshoes in Dakota
In winter. Thus equipped, they trot
lightly over drifts wherein they would
otherwise sink out of sight In some
parts of Dakota the snow lies all win
ter long eight or ten feet deep, but
crust forms on 1t, and with snowshoes
men skim over 1t easily. So do snow
shod horses. The equine snowshoes are
made Of boards twenty inches long and
fourteen inches wide. An indentation
to fit the foot is branded on each board
with a hot horseshoe, and the con-
trivance is fastened on to the hoof
with an iron clamp and bolt. After
a day or two of practice Dakota
horse becomes an expert snowshoer.

would go to the railroads and secure

In short time O'Toole ha6 ngaged
the manufactory opposite and turned
u inside out. He had brought Dark
Patrick the 80 men with the 80 picks
and shovels, and the ten herring par
rrls, and he stood by to see what In
,he name of wonder the next move
was going to be.
Now" said Dark Patrick, says he,
Il want you to start 20 Of these
men in the cellar Of this bank, and
20 more in the cellar of the manu-
factory opposite, working for life and
death, cutting passage under the
street from the one cellar to the other
cellar, and they are to fill the ten bar

Then across the street he started.
and while the men In the cellars be-
low we're working like the fury. cut
ting their way under the street from
house to house, Dark Patrick got the
other ten men to start the fires in
the factory, and he got ten frying
pans and put them on the fires, and
he got hammers and anvils, and he
set them on a bench that ran along
the window looking into the street.
On the frying pans he emptied the
bags of gold and silver, making the
men blow the bellows like murder till
the coins were red hot, and he then
started them carrying the frying pans,
full of coin, to the bench and beating
the coins on the anvils, nicely and
lightly, with little hammers, opening
the windows at the same time so that
the noise would get properly into the
street--where the crowd now was
gathering az tremendous rate in
front of the bank, and instructing the
beaters that they we're to make all
the clatter and clang and jingle that
they could
The passage underneath the street
was soon completed. Then ten her
ring barrels filled within an inch Of
of lip were fetched up; they were
filled up with a couple of layers Of
hot coins-some Of the barrels with
gold coins and others Of them with
silver-and while some Of the men
went on with the frying of the coins,
and some with the beating upon the
anvils at the window, the remainder
were started in pairs, with hand.

as they could across the street to the

bank with the barrels Of money they
carried them back just as fast as the

from the mandatory to the bank.
And the word soon passed that the
government had come to the aid of
O'Toole, and had started minting
money.
And, when the people heard this,
their amazement was wonder to be-
hold
Some of them we're sent In to draw
their money, and report to the others
upon what they observed. And when
they came back with their money on
plates smoking hot, they said how
that the barrels OF gold and silver
were going down to the cellars, in

time there must have gone in a thou

their money, they said, had been

O'Toole. the banker, was a glad
