ON the RECORD.

An old man came into the office Of
tho editor who writes this article the
other day, very old and feeble man
who trembled and walked leaning
heavily on cane and WHOSE days
have dwindled to the latest span
From having been a frequent visitor
his calls had ceased of late. When
he came in the other day he said that
he had not seen Main street for many
months until the day Of his call. He
had heen sick and weak and shut In.
He spoke OF the certain limitation
Of his time on earth and OF the ap-
preaching day when he should cross
tho boundaries OF that far country
whence none return, reviewed his life,
that he would be cared for even as the
sparrow, said he was glad he had lived
and resigned and not sorry that he is
to die. And when he had gone on his
way somehow it was hard for the man
TO whom he had spoken to turn to his
work again. His mind kept reverting
to the fearless faith Of this old man
at the fading OF the twilight and the
record which he had, unconsciously
70 his caller drawn from MIN.
This is the record: He had never
been intoxicated; never treated man
over a bar; never had been sued at
law: never been arrested for any in
fraction Of law; never paid a lawyer a
fee: never smoked a pipe or cigar;
had served four years and eight
had reared one child OF his own and
two orphan children, given them a
home and good education: doesn' t
owe dollar; has sufficient TO maintain
him and to bury him: lived in Mar
shalltown since the city consisted of
| Ave houses, contributed labor and
such funds as he might to the erection
| Of churches, public buildings, etc;
never saved any money; converted to
christianity at the age OF IA and has
tried to live It. and speaking OF this
the old mans figure Strengthened and
| his face shone as he proclaimed again
| his assurance that new life and re-
| newed happiness and reunion with
| friends await him in that future where
| death and tears shall have no part.
1t Is record positive and negative
which i: seems should enable the old
man to meet the judgment that he ex-
poets to undergo with confidence equal
to his hope. It is good record
| When men stand for judgment on the
evidence of the deeds done in the body
success will take on q different mean
ing there than here. No man carries
to that judgment bar his holdings OF
realty, bank stock or cash balances. II
we are to believe as we pray it must be

opens home to an orphan. the neigh

and a half from the navel with a dis
infected string. Snip of the cord with
sharp scissors half an inch below the
tie, and disinfect the CUTOFF end. Do
not tie the cord until it has ceased
pulsating. Wash the stump Of the cord
daily with disinfectant, and paint it
with iodine. 1t will dry up like parch-
ment in few days. and then may be

Wide Sympathies.

Out in the world of talk one hears
many conflicting opinions. A great
saint once said, who hears the eter-
nal voice is delivered OF many an
opinion" You do not need to hear all
the talk all the various opinions of
many men, to know true wisdom.
Your own hushed spirit will teach
you wisdom if you will listen. But
in these lonely hours teach yourself
to be ready to love all the vast variety
Of life that the world may offer you
at any turning. Encourage big thoughts
and wide sympathles. Remember to
sympathize even in the silence with
the people you read of and hear of,
who are quite different from yourself.
Try to understand motives and mean
ings in alien lives. and if you do this
well enough your loneliness will be
turned into the very best education
there is. And when life calls you
some day. your lamp will be shin
ing and bright and will shed a lovely
radiance all about you. For you will
be able to hand on to others the wis
dom that comes with doves feet.

the butcher, who slaughtered her and
sold her meat at famine prices to his
fellow townsmen. At the same time,
however, the mystery of the animals
unaccOuutable behavior was cleared
up. In the body of the cow was found
a small compass which the poor man,

it had fallen among the hay and been
