Resolve Today.

o. s. Marden.
Boys and girls don't wait until
you're grown up before deciding
what you will be or what you
will do to help on the worlds
work. Instead of building cas-
ties in the air and imagining
yourself the heroes and heroines
of impossible situations in an i'm
possible realm, be everyday he
roes and heroines in real, every
day world. The boys and girls
of today will be the men and
women of tomorrow. Begin then
today to build the foundations Of
your castle-not in the air, but
on solid ground; and when the
morrow comes it will find you
ready. Resolve early in life
what you will be, and your use
fulness, to the world will be
doubled. Don't imagine you are
too young. Thomas A. Edison,
the great electrician, was max
ing experiments in chemistry at
twelve years of age. Francis E..
Willard, the great temperance
leader, with the aid Of her broth
er, Oliver, started a paper at IA;
and the boy and girl talked fire.
quently of what they would be
and do when they were grown
up. The great MacMahon was
told, when a poor boy, that he
couldbe anything he wanted tc
be if he only kept working anC
thinking about it. Then I'll be
a Marshall of France!' said the
boy. And he became not only {
Marshal of France, but President
also. Lucy Stone, the grea1
champion of higher education
and equality for women, made
up her mind when but a tiny BIZ
of a girl that she would go tt
college and graduate; and she
did. She picked berries anC
nuts and sold them to buy books
and eventually was graduated a
Oberlin, the only college thel
open to women. Decide nov
what you will be and what yor
! will do. Don't dream. Think an
, work,

and the one which should excite
closest attention is a distinct
and unaccountable change in the
dogs disposition-a staid dog
becoming eXcitable and a frisky
one dull. That condition does
not necessarily mean rabies, but
it is suspicious, and if, in addi-
ton, the dog has trouble in swal-
lowing as though it seemed to
have a bone in it's throat-be-
ware! That dog should be in
stantly tied up, because if it
be rabies it takes but a day or
two for ferocious instincts to
develop. The unmistakable evil
dence, however, of a dog with
rabies is the sticky, whitish sa-
Iva which covers the teeth and
shows on the drawn lips. The
eyes glare and are red; the dog
has paroxysms Of running fury,
during which it banks hoarsely,
which alternate with periods of
temporary exhaustion.

For The RobesoniaI
Recent Protracted Meeting.

Our series of meetings with
Berea church began the LIST Sun
day and closed the following Fri
day. Pastor Shinn, of Marsh
vile, reached US on Tuesday and
preached some very fine sermons
to the delight of all who heard
him, the interest increasing with
each service, and we all were
sorry to see him leave.
There was one added to the
church by baptism.
The preachers were royally en-
tertained in the homes of the
people and we hold a warm place
in our hearts for each and all of
them.
We began at Beulah on Mon
day after the End Sunday and
continued through the 3rd Sun
day. Rev. T. J. Baker, of Park
ton, was with US until Friday.
He mercilessly arraigned sin and
graciously exalted the loving
Christ. 1t is apparently as ma
tural for Bro. Baker to preach as
it is for water to flow down
stream. All the time earnest,
sometimes poetic and often elo.
quent, but with all this he never
loses sight of the fact that the
Old Story of the Cross must bt
made simple and delivered in love
and tenderness. He is a grea-
preacher and God did bless oul
meeting.
There were II additions b,
baptism and 2 restored.
Since this church began to b,
it has not had a more graciou
revival.
The pastor preached for hi
East Lumberton congregation
Sunday night. The attendanc
was good and the attention sc
rious. Two were received flo
baptism.
Best wishes for the cause ev
erywhere.

How to Know a Mad Dog.

Caspar Whitney in Outing.
Hydrophobia is in reality so
rare and so terrifying that it's
symptoms and treatment are lit
tie understood. AS a matter of
fact, the commonly accepted ex-
preston of madness in a dog is
often misleading. The real mad
dog does not shun water as it is
said. On the contrary, mad dogs
often rush to the waterand drink
eagerly, if they are able to swal-
low. The mad dog does not
froth at the mouth. 1t does not
run amuck, swapping at every
thing in it's path. What, then,
are the indications of the mad
dog? To those familiar with a

THE COST OF WEDDINGS.
The Government Collects and
Disburses Some Information
on the Subject.

The Government Collects and
Disburses Some Information
on the Subject.
Baltimore Sun.
A bulletin issued by the Fed
eral government says the people
of the United States spent 49,
765. 1892 for wedding presents
during the month Of June; The The
cost of trousseaus reached ~ $22'
7G5, O21, and more than $12, 0OO,-
600 was spent upon bridal bou-
vuets, wedding breakfasts and
hack hire. To the 345, 675 clergy
men who ohiciated at the 643,-
$50 weddings of the month
the bridegrooms paid $491.-
.365. 80. or an average
of 1.43a a head. Upon wed
ding journeys, music, rice, IL
Quors, souvenir post cards, tips
and the hire of portable porte
cocheres, further sum Of 81,
567. 800 was expended, making
approximately $5,OOO,OOO in all.
The fact that The c, st of wed
king presents worked out to nc
more than $13.06 a wedding
may surprise the reader, but
several interesting footnotes ex
plain it in a satisfactory manner
1t is pointed out, for instance
that only % per cent. OF the
wedding presents displayed by
the average bride were actual!
bought for the occasion by thel
real or ostensible donors. Fully
60 per cent. of all presents, say
the report, are made to do serv
ice a great many times. At tn
start, let US say, an opulen
young bachelor is asked to b.
best man at a wedding, and
with hysterical generosity, rushe
out and buys the bride a 81
clock. Well, six months later
when the brides third cousin l
married, the same clock serve
as a wedding present again, ant
later on when the third cousil
herself is hidden to some Othe
girls nuptials, it changes hand
a third time. Thus the sam
clock may continue on its round
for years, until its gliding wear
off and it's spring breaks. Often
indeed, it is received by tn
same bride twice-that IS to say
at her first marriage and at he
second. But such accidents ar
