An unprid Livery Bill

Last Wednesday morning a
stranger called at Powers livery
barn for a team, stating that he
would be here several days and
would want to drive out each day,
as he had business in the country.
Nothing was heard of the man or
team until Mr.. Power received a
letter next day stating that he
would find the team in a livery
stable at Chillicothe. The mans
excuse for not returning was that
he had received a letter stating that
his wife was very sick and he
would have to 60 to her, being very
careful not to give his future ad-
dress or that of his sick wife. The
letter was signed B. @. Hardy and
a P. s. added that he would remit
all expenses, but Mr.. Power still
has vacant place on the credit
side of his ledger and the chances
are that it will remain vacant.

Some Evening ReverIes.

faith and trust. This luxury of th,
soul presents to us the great re.
| sponsibility Of parents and teachers
/ The parent or teacher often teaches
a child to lie by speaking and act
ing lies. One Of the most effective
ways to manufacture a nation of
| liars and defaulters is by the object
lesson system. A mother tastes
some nauseous medicine, assuring
the child by words and actions that
it is very nice. The child takes the
medicine, detects the lie the mother
has told it, learns by such lessons
to deceive and consequently never
climbs to the mountain top Of hon
or and writes his name by the side
of George Washington. No child
could have the implicit confidence
it would have had, had the mother
been true and said, This medicine
is bad to take. You are sick and
it is necessary that you take it to
get WE'LL" Such a course would
inspire confidence and trust; truth
would not be sacrificed, but a les
son Of obedience and courage mani
tested in the presence of one of the
little ones of whom the Great
Teacher said, Suffer the little
children to come unto me, and for
bid them not, for Of such is the
kingdom of heaven. Another in
stance-this used to belong to the
school room; possibly the practice
has gone out of date ere this-we
allude to the practice of self report
ing. A young lady of truthful
character, abhorring lying, with a
scrupulously truthful mother who
instilled this virtue in her daughter,
was made to bow to untruth by this
evil practice in the school room.
At first, when her classmates, VINO
had been whispering all day, an
swered perfect, s." she felt a loath-
ing and disgust, and always said
she had whispered. The others
who lied about it were praised con-
tinually, while she was publicly
reprimanded before the school.
Thus the teacher was giving a re-
ward for dishonesty, and, while
unconscious Of the fact, was aiding
Satan to discourage virtue and
during the character forming period
of life established an imperfect
custom in one that might breed ruin
and decay. Let us remember that
children are keen observers, but
that they are naturally sociable
and friendly, and any departure
from truth will wound the sensitive
and trusting nature of a child. AS
we grow older we realize that no |
poets pen or painters brush can
ever depict the glory Of childhood; |
for such day one would almost |
tread backwards through the check |
cred years and encounter the trials |
and disappointments, the pains and |
perplexities of life, and view as in
The olden time on either side his
whitening hopes. Parents, live in
such a manner that when you give
to your children the goodbye kiss
they will honor you and revere
your loving counsel. Teachers, so
your schools that your pu-
pills may never learn to manifesto
Drazen audacity and exhibit wares
not their own and unlawfully OBJ
aimed. immortal souls are in your
zeeping. Their happiness for time
md eternity largely depends upon
rou. Do not be instrumental in
Introducing false methods and
wrong ideas and false ideas of ad-
-ancement, but train up the child (,
