GEMS FROM THE BOOK.

Whose despiseth wisdom and
torture, he is miserable, and
their hope is vain, their Iabors
unfruitful, and their work I'M
profitable.
Wisdom is the gray hair unto
men, and an unspotted life is old
age.
The desire of wisdom bringeth
to a kingdom.
Wisdom is glorious, and never
fadeth away: yea, she is early
seen Of them that love her, and
Of such as seek her.
Whose seeketh wisdom early
shall have no great travail; for
he shall find her sitting at his
door.
To think upon wisdom is the
perfection of wisdom.
Wisdom goeth about seeking
such as are worthy of her, show
eth herself favorable unto them
in the ways, and meeteth them
in every thought.
The very true beginning of
wisdom is the desire Of disci-
pIine; and the care Of discipline
Is love. And love is the keeping
Of wisdom's laws.
The giving heed unto wis
dom's laws Is the assurance of
interruption.
The multitude of the wise is
the welfare of the world: and a
wise king is the UNFOLDING Of the
people.
Glorious is the fruit Of good
labors; and the root of wisdom
shall never fall away.
Wisdom is treasure unto
men that never faiIeth; which
they that use become the friends
OF God, being commended for
the gifts that come from learn
ing.
Wisdom is the breath of the
power of God, and a pure influ-
ence flowing from the glory of
the Almighty.

Joke Anglers the judge.

Judge Balcom was talking to a
crowd on the street few days ago,
telling them the proper way to put
shingles on house. He said.
The old rule was to allow six inches
of the shingles to show to the wealth
er; but that is too much. You should
allow not more than four inches to
show"
Some wag remarked in a matter of
fact tone to the Judge: How would it
do not to let any show" The Judge
replied: I've seen roofs made that
way; but it takes a great many
shingles"

HIS KINDLY HEART
CHAMPION SENSITIVE MAN WAS
THIS VERMONT CITIZEN.
His Mantle OF Kindness Even Spread
Over That Presidential Enemy of
the Human Race, the Blood
thirsty Mosquito.

II think the most sensitive man
ever knew" said Col Calliper, was
an old friend of mine named Jonathan
Saglow, who lived at one time in
Storkville Center, VT. He couldn't
bear to see pain inflicted on man or
beast, and any sort of cruelty filled
him with great Indignation.
"On Mr.. Saglow's place there was
little bit of swamp land which he
had never drained and which fur
nished breeding place for what
suppose were the greatest and ferc-
est mosquitoes that ever grew, but
Saglow had no screens on his porch
or windows. He did have some once
on his porch but he took them down
the next day after he put them up
People hesitated to call on the
Saglows in summer on account Of
those mosquitoes. There were mos
quitoes, sure enough. elsewhere in
Storkville Center than around where
they lived, but none quite so big and
ferocious as those that grew in Sag
lows swamp.
Then one day, to Storkville Cen
tres great establishment. Mr.. Saglow
was seen putting up screens around
his front porch; the next day, to it's
still greater establishment, he was
seen taking them down, and Mr.. Sag.
low wasn't a man that everybody
could run up to to ask the why's and
wherefores of anything he'd done, but
one day in friendly mood he told me
why he had taken down the screens
the very day after he had put them up.
He admitted freely that that one
night they had had on the porch with
the screens up had been most comfort
able for them all; that to sit there
and not be bored into by those giant
mosquitoes had been an experience
that they had all greatly enjoyed: but
what he saw in the morning when he
came to look the screens over by
daylight prompted him to take them
down Immediately.
Sticking through these screens. all
over, all around, everywhere. he saw
mosquitoes broken off beaks-you can
Judge what sized beaks they were
when l tell you that those screens
were not very fine meshed-big beaks
which mosquitoes had thrust through
the netting in their efforts to get at
the people inside, and which had be.
come wedged there and been broken
OH when the mosquitoes had beaten
up against those screens and how
many had stuck their beaks through
and still been able to get them out
again nobody could know, but here
were "a broken off beaks still stick
ing through the meshes of the net
ting.
Now most people, you know, would
nave found sort of savage Joy in the
contemplation of those broken off
spears and in the thought that so
many giant pests had thus been
made innocuous; but not so with
Jonathan Saglow
When he saw those "a broken off
beaks the first thought that came to
him was of the poor wounded and
manned mosquitoes wandering beak
less around the world deprived of their
only means of sustenance; and
straightway he tore down the screens
so that others might not by them be
made likewise to suffer; for not even
upon the sufferings of mosquitoes
could he dwell with serenity. this
most sensitive man 1 ever knew"
