1t is bad enough to think evil
of people-but it is worse to
speak it. Unkind words wound
more feelings, start more mis-
understandings. wreck more
friendships, and break up more
homes than almost any other
cause that can be thought of.
Unfortunately. too, they are easy
to speak. The inspired writer
was not beating the air when
he commended the virtue of
bridling the tongue.-Rev. H. T.
Carley in the Christian Advo-
cate.

CARL SCHURTZ'S STORY OF
GROVER CLEVELAND.

The editor of The American
Magazine tells in a recent num-
Der of the humility of Grover
Cleveland after being elected
President in most interesting
and instructive story which
would like to give to your read
crs as briefly as may be. Cleve-
land sent for General Schurtz
and asked him what big ques-
ton he thought he should take
up when he got into the White
House? (this was along in Nov
ember or December soon after
his election) Schurtz told him
that he thought he ought to
take up the tariff. l quote di-
rectly from the story. Il shall
never forget what happened.
The man bent forward and
buried his face in his hands on
the table before him. After
two or three minutes he straight
. ened up, and with the same di-
rectnes ssaid slowly and solemn
ly: I am ashamed to say it:
but the truth isl know nothing
at all about the tariff. Will
you help me? Will you tell me
how to 60 about it to learn. OF
course | said that | would. So
l gave him list of books to
read. Did he read them? In
deed he did! And came back
for more! Nobody ever
worked harder to master new
subject.
"And with what result? The
result was the Cleveland tariff
message of 1887, as able a docu-
ment on the subject as was ever
written"
This hitherto unpublished
story solved for the writer one
of the things that had puzzled
her mind all these years. In
that year 1884 | was living in
Alexandria. La, with my hus-
band Andrew Thorpe, and l

The farmer, if he only knew
it, is a little nearer the kingdom
of heaven than anyone on
earth. He IS certain of three
square meals a day and is the
only man who can fence himself
in and live in spite of the rest of
man. A few cattle and sheep
and fowl provide him with food
and clothing. while this field
yields him flour and a source of
revenue. So generous are these
provisions and so common that
hardly one farmer IN ten make
any account Of them, although
