THE STORY.

/, WHEN tidings were brought to Nj

his followers were In the strong
places about Samaria he was glad.

he exclaimed, with savage Joy

crush him. This will 90 on the Sab
bath day, for then will Judas and his
! men be given to their devotions and
the observance of the ceremonies OF
their laws"
Now there were certain Jews in
the camp of Nicanor, whom he had
made slaves, who were sore troubled
that Nicanor would give the Jews
battle on the Sabbath day, and they
besought him. saying;
20 destroy not so cruelty and bar
Jbarously, but give honor to that day
which he that seeth all things hath
honored with holiness above other
days"

a yillainous chuckle rs there a
Mighty One in heaven that hath com
manded the Sabbath day to be kept.
There is in heaven a living God
and mighty, who commandeth the

"And l also am mighty one upon

and looking with disdain upon the

Now tidings of these things reached
Judas and his men, and great terror

panic And when he sought to en-
courage them with hope in God they

Man with the Conundrunn.

The neighbor stepped across his
yard and watched the man raking the
dead leaves.
Hello" said the neighbor. Say, l
heard a mighty good conundrum last
night
The other man continued raking the
leaves.
1T was this" said the neighbor.
What is the difference between a
man who flirts with girl on the e1e-
waited railroad and a Chinaman who
rolls up his cue and sits down on it?"
What kind OF a looking girl was
she?" asked the man who was raking
leaves.
IL don't know. That isn't the point"
Il think that has a good deal to do
with It,"
No The question is: What is the
difference between man who is flirt-
ing with girl on the elevated rail-
road and a Chinaman who"
Yes but the question is"
You bet if l saw any of them fiirt-
ing I'd give them a poke that they
wouldn't forget. Why didn't you slam
him one?"
Il didn't see him. just"
who told you about it?"
Nobody It's just a puzzle. you
know, about this man and the China
mantle question is"
The chink wasn't flirting, was he?
Why didn't you tell the CONDUCTOR"
1T didn't really happen, you know.
It's simply "a"
"Oh, rats!" And the other man re-
sumed raking, while the neighbor
stood and scowled at him, and then
turned and started down street NUT
tering:
"If he hadn't been so blamed thick

The Universal Lesson.

The sun does not shine for few
rees and flowers, but for the wide
worlds Joy. The lonely pine OF the
mountain top waves its somber boughs
md cries, Thou art my sum- and
he little meadow violet lifts its cup
Of blue and whispers with its per-
tuned breath, Thou art my sun"
and the grain in a thousand fields rus
les in the wind and makes answer,
Thou art my SUM" So God sits, eff
fulgent, in heaven, not for favored
few. but for the universe of life, and
there is no creature so poor or so low
that he may not look up with child
like confidence and say, My Father,
thou art mine!'-Rev. Henry Ward
BeeCher.

Sure Faith.

Though he STAY me, yet will ]
trust in him." Job xiii. Is.
Only beyond our knowledge is there
really room for the exercise of faith.
It is where sure knowledge ends that
sure faith begins. Even a suspicious
doubter will trust as far as he can
see" But He Whom we trust, and
in Whom we have faith, can be trust
ed beyond sight, and against sight, in
darkness, and when all appearance
seem against His loving purposes and
ends in our behalf.

In His Infinite Wisdom.

There is no true rest of heart and
soul in time of trial until we have
come to look beyond causes and hui
man instruments and have seen the
hand of our God and Father appoint
ing all in his infinite wisdom and love.
Cease as far as possible from vain re-
grets and leave all calmly TO him who
has promised that all things work to-
gether for good. To bring our hearts
TO this may be the very meaning and
end of the dispensation.

lutte proof of devoted love; after that the less said
about it the better. But differently con-
stituted and love to be made love to by men whom
they love quite much, if not more, after they are
married than before.
Much marital unhappiness, and that too, between
people who really love each other, is caused by the
lack of poiteness between the two who one; the
idea that love everything, and that small cour-
tesies do not matter. Husband and wife who were

J when a mighty army seemed

J Judas Maccabeus was given

the vision
That was better, for il linked 4

strength and courage to meet 4
the threatened peril. 4
God never does anything in 4
the world with men apart from 4

A vision that reveals the i'm 4
nanence and power Of God is 4
better than a legion Of angels 4
to fight for us.
The vision Of the gift Of the 4
golden sword was better for Ju- I
das than all the armored hosts 4
Of heaven, for it gave a new 4
thought and new hope to Ju- 4

When he awoke the golden 4
sword did not rest in his hand, 4

fair as merely a place where sleek

fair as merely place where sleek
horses and cattle. fat hogs, plenty of
prize pumpkins, interesting racing and
a big crowd may be found. The fair,
1T ordinarily seems to US, comes today
and is gone tomorro H-until next year.
1t is good place to spend hour or
so, but the next week it will be gone
without having left behind any appar-
ent effects, good, bad or Indifferent,
says the Richmond Climax.
This, however, is not the most inter-
esting side of a fair. A county fair
such as is held annually here, is impor-
tant in its sociological aspects. 1t is a
great clearing house of public opinion,
and a place where acquaintance are
renewed and kept green. "I'll see you
at the fair, may be the parting
words of friends, lovers, men of bust
ness. They may be spoken in the crisp
tones of the man who looks forward to
the meeting as an opportunity to dis
cuss contract or sale; or they may
be whispered by the youthful pair
whose hearts are athriIl with the dawn
ing of love. Lives have been ennobled
and lives have been wrecked at the
fair.
A county fair is a great educator, not
altogether in the more obvious way
las an exhibit where one may see bet
ter machines, better live stock, bet
ter industrial products than he has
ever seen before, but rather in a more
intangible way. The man who but sell
dom meets people, here probably meets
many and is improved thereby. The
person of philosophic turn here sees a
whole section-city people, country
people; good and bad-in miniature.
The fair is for him, in fact. pana-
rama of society or portion of it. 1t
one be wise, he may, BY looking on
this panorama, see himself in a true
perspective. for here are representa-
tive persons from the region in which
he lives. If the onlooker has wisdom
he is likely to ask himself this ques-
ton: ''How do !. how my family and
myscommunity. average up?"
If we could know only few of the
comedies that are here played if we
could but know of the tragedies that
are enacted here behind the scenes, we
would know more fully the real sig
nificance of the fair.

pie to the increasing prevalence and
mortality from typhoid fever and to
the consequent growing Importance of
the constant use of the methods endors-
ed and confirmed by scientific research
and observation for the prevention of
the disease.
An average cf 1880 cases of this
disease and 1879 deaths are reported
in Kentucky evry year.. chiefly con-
fined to people in the.prime of life and
usefulness.
The cost of caring for those sick Of
it, to say nothing of the sorrow, suffer-
ing and loss of life. for this year, Is
reported as being 1868, $50.
At the very low estimate of $500
for each life lost the actual money
value of those dying was $3.947, 500.
1t to this be added the cost for caring
for the sick it gives total loss to the
people of Kentucky from this one dis
ease in an average year of S4,9l1. $50.
Typhoid feverSls declared to be the
most preventable of all diseases, not
even excepting smallpox. Like chole-
"a and dysentry, the germs of the dis
ease are contained only IN the discharg-
es of the bowels and kidneys of those
sick of it, we are told, and it is neces-
sary for a person to swallow some OF
such discharges, or things polluted by
them, in some way.in order to contract
the disease.
DR.. Mccormick, Secretary OF the
Board, says that if the rules that have
bern prepared for the guidance of all
persons interested in their own behalf
and the public health-such as screen
ing windows and doors, boiling until
tered water, and taking certain other
sanitary precautions-were faithfully
and intelligentIy carried out, it would
result in the practical disappearance
of one of our most common and fatal
dometsic pestilences. which is not only
disgrace to our civilization, but an
annual scourge and tax upon the people
of Kentucky in comparison with which
yellow fever and cholera plague and
other exotic Diseases, so feared by cur
people, sink into significance.
