Sermon by Rer. T. I>e Witt Tal-magre» D. XX

\

He gltows How Person* Ar« Kagult#a in» 8o» of Sin, said Faints Out the

Only M««>it* of RascuA—Tti«Cfcri*tiM Ltfe-Bo»t.

. ' The subject ot a recent sermon by Dr.Talwage was "The Castaway." He tookfor bis text tho latter portion of the twenty-•eveuth verse of the ninth chapter of FirstCorinthians: "Lest that by any means Inyself should be cast away." The preacher•aid:

In the presenoe of you who live on thePacific coast I who live oa the Atlanticcoast may appropriately speak on thismarine allusion of the text, for all whofcnow about the sea know about tho cast-away. The text implies that the ministersof religion may help others into Heaven andyet mis* it themeelves. The carpentersthat built Noah's ark did not get Into itthemselves. Gown and surplice auddiploma* and canonicals are no securi-ty. Cardinal Woisoy, after having beonpetted by Kings and having entertainedforeign ambassadors at Hampton court,died In darkness, One of the most eminentnttaist ra of religion that this country has«v«r known plunged Into sin and died, hisheart, by post-mortem examination, foundto have been not figuratively batliterally broken. We may havebands of ordination on the headamd address consecrated assemblages,but that Is no reason why we shall neces-sarily reach the realm celestesL The cler-gyman must go through the same gate otpardon as the layman. There have been«a*js of shipwreck where all on beard es-caped excepting the captain. AlaaMf hav-.Ing * preached to others I myself should be* castaway." God forbid i t

I have examined some of the commen-taries to see what they thought about thisword ^caataway" and I find they differ inregard to the figure urod while they agreela regard to the meaning. So I shall maketoy own selection and take It in a nauticaland seafaring sense aud show you thatmen may become spiritual castaways andhow anally thev drift into that calamity.

You and I live in geabord cities. Yonhave all stood on the be&oh. Many of youhave crossed the ocean. Some of you havemanaged vessels In great stress of weather.There is a sea captain, and there is an-other, and yonder is another, and there*re a goodly number of you who, though<mce ypu did not know the dif-

between a brig and a barkbetween a diamond knot aud a sprit-

«hect-sa!l knot, and although you could not^ point out the weathercrossjaok brado, and

Although you could not man theforeclew-arneta, now you are a* familiar with a

ip at you w e with your right hand, and,t were neoesaary you could take a vessel

tear across to the mouth of the Merseywithout the loss of a single sail Well,

ibereis a dark night In your memory ofthe sea. The ve&sol became unmanageable.You saw it was scudding- toward the shore.You heard tbe cry: "Breakers ahead!Land on the lee bow!1' The vessel struckthe rock and you felt the deckbreaking up under your feet, and youwere a castaway, as when the Herculesdrove on the coast of Caffraria, as when thePortuguese brig went staying, splitting,grind.ng, crashing on the Goodwins. Butwhether you have followed the sea or notyou all understand the figure when I tellyou that there are men who by their sins andtemptations are thrown helpless! Drivenbefore the gale! Wrecked for twe worlds!Castaways! Castaways!

By talking with some asa captains I havefound out that there are thrte or four.causes tor such a calamity to a vessel. 1bare been told that it sometimes comesfrom creating false lights on the beach.This was often so 1A olden times. It JS notmany years ago, indeevt, that vagabondsused to wander up and down the beach get-ting vessels ashore in the night, throwingup false lights in their presence and deceiv-ing them that they might despoil andransack them. All kinds of infernal«rts were used to accomplish this. Andone night on the Cornish coast, whea thepea was coming* in fearfully, nome villainstook a lantern and tied it to a horse and ledthe horse up and down the beach, tbe Ian-tern swinging to the motion of the horse,and a sea captain in the oinng saw it andmade up his mind that he was not any-where near the shore, fur he said:'There's a vessel — that must beft vessel, for it has a movablelight,4' and he had no apprehension till habeard the rocks grating on the ship's bot-tom, and it went to pieces and the villainson shore gathered up the packages andtreasures that were washed to the land.And I have to tell you that there are amultitude of souls ruined by false lights onthe beach. In the dark night of man'sdanger false religion goes up and down theshore, shaking lU'lantem, and men lookoff aud take that flickering andexpiring wick as the signal of safe-ty, and the cry In: "Heave tbe main*topsail to the mast! All is well!" whensuddon destruction coraeth upon them andthey shall not escape. Bo there are allkinds of lanterns swung on the beach—philosophical lanterns, educated Uufcteros,faumasltaxian lanterns. Men look at themand are deceived, when there is nothingbut (tod's eternal light-house of theOospel taat can keep them from be-coming castaways. Ouce on Wolf Craglight-house they tried to build acopper figure of a wolf with itsmouth open, so that the storms beating intoit the wolf would howl forth the dangers tom&rineru that might be coining anywherenear the coast 0 course it was a failure.And so all new inventions for the savingof man's «oul are unavailing'. What thehuman race wants is a Ught burstingforth from the Cross standing on tbegreat headlands-the light of pardon,the light of comfort, the light ofHeaven, You might better go to-night anddestroy all the groat light-houses on thedangerous coasts—tbe fiarnegat light*boues, the Footnet Hock light-houie, theftherryvore Jfght-bouse, the Longsbip'silght-houne, the Hollybead light-bouse—than IO put out God's great ooeanl»mp—the GospeL Woe to those who swing falselanterns on the beach tiU men oraah latoruin.

East Iadl«a %nd there is not a single oloodon the sky; but suddenly the breeze fresh-ens and there are swift feet on the ratlinesand the cry is: "Way, haul away there!'but before they o&n square the booms andtarpaulin the hatchways the vessel togroaning and creasing in the gripof a tornado and tails over intothe trough of the, sea and broad-side it roils on to the beach and keels over,leaving the crew to the merciless surf.Castaway! Castaway! And so Z have to tellyou that there are thousands of men de-stroyed through the sudden swoop oftemptations. Some great inducement toworldlineM or to sensuality or to high tem-per or to some form of dissipation comesupon them. If they had time toexamine their Bible, if they hadtime to consult with their friends, ifthey had time to deliberate, they couldstand it; but the temptation came so sud-denly—an euroclydon on the Mediter-ranean, a whirlwind on the Caribbean. Oneawful surge of temptation and they perish.And so we often hear the old story; "Ihadn't seen my friend in a great many years.We were very glad to meet He said I mustdrink and he took me by the arm and pressedme along and filled the cup until tbe bub-bles ran over the edge, and in an evil mo-ment all my good resolutions were sweptaway, and to the outraging of God and myown soul I fel l" Or the story is: "I hadhard work to support my family, I thoughtthat by one fa:so entry, by one deception,by one embezzlement, 1 might spring outfree from ail my trouble, and the tempta-tion came upon me so fiercely I could sotdeliberate. I did wrong, and having donewrong once I could not stop." Oh,It is the first step that costs; the s e cond is easier, and the third, and on tothe lost. Once having broken loose fromthe anchor it is not so easy to tie theparted strands. How often it is that menare ruined for the reason that the tempta-tion comes from some unexpected quarter.As vessels lie in Margate roads, sale fromsouthwest winds; but the wind changingto the noxtrieast they are driven helplessand go down. Oh, that God would havemercy upon those upon whom there comesthe sudden swoop of temptation, lest theyperish, be coming castaways! castaways!

By talking with sea captains I have foundout also that some vessels come to thiscalamity through sheer recklessness.There are three million men who followthe sea for a living. It is a simplefact that the average of human life on thesea is less than twelve years. This comesfrom the face that men by familiaritywith danger sometimes become reckless—the captain, the helmsman, the stoker,she man on the lookout become reck-less, and oine oat of ten ship-wrecks it is found out that someone was awfully to blame. So I have totell you that men are morally shipwreckedthrough sheer recklessness. There arethousands who do not care where they arein spiritual things. They do not knowwhich way they are sailing, and the s ea l sblack with piratical hulks that wouldgrapple them with hooks of steel and blind-fold them, acd make them "walk theplank." They do not know what the nextmoment may bring forth. Drifting intheir theology. Drifting In their habits.Drifting in regard to all their future. NoGod, no Christ, no settled anticipations ofeternal felicity; but all the time comingnearer aud nearer to a dangerous coastSome of them are en fire with evil habitand they shall burn ou the sea, the charredhulk tossed up on tbe barren beaeh,Many of thorn with great troubles, finan-cial troubles, domestic troubles, socialtroubles; but they sever pray feecomfort With an aggravation at sin theypray for no pardon. Tbey do not steerfor the light-ship that dances in gladnessat the tnoutb of Heaven & harbor; recklessas to where they come out, drifting- fartherfrom God, farther from early religious in-fluences, farther from bappiness; andwhat is tbe worst thing about it is they aretaking their families along with them andthe way one goes tbe probabilityis they will all go. Yet no anxi-ety. A* unconscious of danger as thepassengers aboard tbe Arctic one momentbefore the Testa crashed into-a«r. Wrappedup in tbe business of, the store, not remem-bering that soon they must (gait all theirearthly possessions. Absorbed in theirsocial position, not knowing that very soonthey will have attended the last levee andwhirled in the laat schottische. They donot deliberately choose to be ruined; neitherdid the French frigate Medusa aim forthe Arguin banks, but there it went topieces. I wish I could wake you up. Theperils are so augmented, you will die justa* certainly as you sit there unless you be-stir yourseif. Are you willing to becomea castaway? You throw out no oar. Youtake no soundings. You watch no com-pass. You axe not calculating your bear-Ings while the wind is abaft andyonder is a long line of foam bounding thehorizon, and you will be pushed on to*ward it, and thousands have perishedthere, and you are driving in the same di-rection. Ready about! Down helm! Harddown! Wan the life-boat! Pull, my lads,pull! "He that being often reprovedhardeneth his neck shall be suddenly de-stroyed and that without remedy." Butsome of you are saying within yourselves:"What shall I do?" Do? Do? Why, mybrother, do what any ship doei» when it is introuble. l i f t a distress signal On tbesea there Is a flash and a boom. You listenand you look. A vessel is in trouble. Thedistress gun is sounded, or a rocket issent up, or a blanket lifted, or abundle of rsgs— any thing to catchthe efe or the passing craft Ho ifyou want to be taken off the wreckof your sin you must lift a dis-tress signal The publican lifted tbedistress signal when he cried: "Ood bemerciful to me a sinner!" Peter lifted thedlatreiw signal wheu he said: "Lord, saveme, I perish!" The blind man lifted thedistress signal when he said: "Lord, thatmy eyes may be opened." The j.tiler liftedthe distress signal when he paid: "Whatmust 1 do to be saved?" Aud help will neveroome to your soul unions you lift sotnesignal You must make nomo demon-stration, give Koine sign, make someHeaven-piercing outcry fdr help, liftingthe duties* 'signal for Heaven's pardon.Pray! Pray! Tae voice of the Lord nowsounds in your ears: "In me is tixy help."Too proud to raise such a signal, too proudto be saved. -

The clouds were breakingaway, and there that blessed star shonedown on me, and it seemed to take righthold of me; and somehow, I can not tellhow it waa, but somehow, while I was try*ing to watch that star, it seemed to helpme and seemed to lift me," Oh, sinkingsoul, see you not the glimmer between therifts ot the storm-cloud! This is the star ofhope.

"Denttvstrack, 1 ceased the tide to stem,Wbeo suddenly a star arose—

It wa» the star of Bethlehem!"If there are any here who consider them-

selves castaways, let me nay God is doinger^iy ihlng to save you. Did you everhear of Lionel Luken? He was the in-ventor of the insubmergible life-boatAlt honor is due to his memory by seafar-ing men, as well as by landsmen. Howmany lives he saved by his invention! Inafter days that invention was improved,and one day there wit s a perfect life-boat,the Northumberland, ready at Ramsgate.The life-boat being ready, to test itthe urew came out and leaped on one sideto see if the boat would upset It was im-possible to upset it Then, amid the huzzasof excited thousands, that boat waslaunched, and it has cone and oome, pick-ing up a great many of the shipwrecked,But I have to tell you now of a granderlaunching, and from the dry docksof Heaven. Word came up that aworld was beating on the rocks. Inthe presence of the potentates of Heaventhe life-boat of the world's redemption waalaunched. It shoved off the golden sandsamid angelic hosanna. The surges of dark-ness beat against ita bow, but it sated on,and it come* in sight of us this hour. Itcomes for you, it comes for me. Soul!soul! get into i t Hake one leap forHeaven. Let that boat go past and youropportunity is gone.

I aiu expecting that there will be wholefamilies here who will get into that life-boat In 18S3 the Isabella came ashore offHastings, Eng. The air was filled withsounds—the hoarse sea trumpet, thecrash of the axes and the bellowingof the tornado. A boat from theshore came under the stern of thedisabled vessel There were woman andchildren on board that vessel Home of thesailors jumped into the small boat and said;"Now give us the children," A father whostood on deck took his first-born and threwhim to the boat The sailors caught himsafely and the next and the next, to thelast Still the sea rocking, the storm howl-ing. "Now," sold the sailors, "now themother;1* and she leaped aud was sayed.The boat went to the shore, but be-fore it got to the shore tbe lands-men were so impatient to help thesuffering people that they waded cleardown into the *urf with blankets andgarments and promises of help and succor.Bo there are whole famiitsu here who aregoing to be saved and saved altogether.Give tts that child for Christ, that otherchild, that other. Give us tbe mother, fiveue the father, the whole family. They

Trt«d to PiPicket Httd Fulled,

Twenty-eix years ago last night w»gmy tima to go on guard. You knowhow they stand; three men and a cor-poral go out, and it was customary forthem to divide the night into four partft

and the officer take the first quarter;but, he isn't obliged to stand at alt.

4'We went out that eight with no ideaof foraging, as our orders were verystrict against it, old Forrest beingpretty close to us, and the camp wasready to turn out at a moment's notice*The corporal of the guard was MuckHollins—he afterwards became a Lieu-tenant—and the relief consisted ofHenry Williams, Tom Irirln and my-self.

"About 9:80 o'clock, as we were sit»ting around the fire a-cussing- the rebelsand wishing the war was over, weheard a short, sharp grunt and a snuf-fling ot the air. Turning around, wesaw one of tho&e razor-backed, rail-splitting hogs, like you spoke of, Andy.It didn't look like it had been fed insix months, but we were awful hungryfor fresh hog meat, and Tom Irwin andI snatched up our guns, and would havefired, but Mack told us to hold on, we'dalarm the whole camp. The bog-turnedaround all of a sudden, and ran off intothe bushes like a train of cars; youknow that sort of pigs can outrun svrace-horse, anyhow. We heard it lean-ing along a little ways, and then itstopped, to listen, 1 suppose.

44 •There,* said I, YOU ve let It getaway.'

•••No, I haven*C replied Mack.*Put your bayonet on the end of yourgun, BUI, and go out to the right aboutfifty steps and stand stilL Tom, youfix your bayonet and go to the leftabout the same distance. Hen and Irill go around the hog and drive it to-wards the fire; It will go on one side orthe other, then make a sure stab.1

"We got into our positions, andMack and Henry went out to drivein the porker. Of course they hadtheir guns ready, so if they got closeenough they would stick the brute.Pretty soon I heard a grunting and atrashing- of the bushes, and in a fewseconds the porker ran out into thelight of the fire, and stood stock still,head down and evidently listening1;hearing M&ek and Henry coming be-hind, it gave m quick, sharp grunt* anddashed straight towards* me.

i got a good grip ow my gun, andprepared to drive the bayonet rightthrough the hog when; it got nearenough, but it must have seen uie, forwhen it pot with In. about fifteen feet ofwe, it sheered and started between my-self and the fire; It was too farawayto stick, and, of course, I wa& resolvednot to let it escape if I ceuld help it, soI raised my guat and threw- U at the an-imal with all my strength. Eut it wasrunning faster than I thoug&t, or elseX did n't throw the gun qmak enough;for, instead of striking right behind tbefore leg as I intended, the bayonet wentill rough the back part of the- bams,sunk deep into tbo earth and planed it3fe the ground-

"The hog set up such a squealing asI never heard before, louder than ast&amboat whistle, and fairly made mycars ache with its terrible din. A fewj.ump§ brought the boys on, the spot,aad we all tried to talk at oncef butnone of us couM be hoards

*'I caught hold of th© butt end' of mygvxn, which was shaking lik« a Leaf, toaUady it, for, if the hog kept up> itsstruggles, it would pull the bayonetout of the ground aod. runoff.

NAVY-YARD RED TAPE.

EV«ry Bill Requires 16* Vouchers and ? 4 #

Few people, if any, outside of navyyard officials, have any idea ot the cir-cumlocution and red tape necessary,under the present rules and regulations,for the payment for the smallest articlepurchased for use in the navy. A casein point is worth bringing to tb« notice ofour reader* The Navy Department i»something like a man having A coatwith eight pockets in i t The-departsment consists of eight bureaus, eachone having separate appropriationsmade by Congress for the purcnas* ofevery thing it require*.

There is one thing that every buwwihas an appropriktioa forv and tba* isthe item of ice. The contract is letevery year and each office in the nawyyard at Mare Island is allowed a cer-tain quantity. Of course it ia all paidfor out of different appropriation*Last year the contract waa let to *party in Vallejo, and we now wish toexplain the models operand! of pay-ment, for th# benefit of our readers,whieii to a business person on the out-!side- will appear sublimely ridiculouvThe- contractor i» paid for the ice tt*»30tlr of December and the 80th of Juneof every fiscal yew. As there are eightbureaus it requires eight sets of publicbills, each set consisting of five vouch- •ers; ilieder vouchers must be signed bythe senior menvbei-v of the Board of Io»spection that the ie«r was of good qualityetc. Them they gotc the general store-keeper for his certificate that he re-ceivedthcr-we and that it was accord- Iing \o contract They then go to th« •commandant for hi» approval; then goto Washington for tl«r approval of tbeFayn)aster*6aneral; who approves, andthen sends them tothet Bwvy Pay Officeat San Francisco, the contractor in •>.'••few days getting bis money.

Our reaier? will B«W that in payingfor the ice for tbe first half of the fiscalyear it requires forty voucher* and200 signatures;, and. this- Is not allor half. When the- i c e - » received itmust be invoiced to the* beads- of tbeeight different department aod thesevouchers are in triplicate- aod requirethree signatures each* Thus it will beseen that tttece must: be- twenty-fourvouchers and soveotyAwO' aicnatureaadded to the number raentdoowJ else-where. Thia- is the routiaa gonethrough with the 30th ot every l>euem-ber. and the same thing is gpnirtliroufrhagain th& 30th of June,- but there ismore to »me.

ttar** M 4 Ptetar* Frame*.Now that lamps are so much used, a

idea* for pretty shades will no!come amiaa, Between the stiff paperlamp fthadas* ornamented with bird*acd flowers in gorgeous colors or withimpossible landscapes showing underbrilliant glazes, and the exquisite crea-tions for the lamps of to-day, there Isan immeasurable distance, but in pointof time only a few years. Into theircomposition enter various materials.Silks and satins, velvets and laces,stained glass, bronzes, oriental fabrics,gold and silver cords and metallic laces•11 find use. Not only the lamps arethus adorned, but candles come in fortheir share of this artistic treatment

A. handsome shade for a high pianolamp is oriental in design, showing itsgolden riba covered with old gold silkand thin Eastern gauze. Around theedge is a row of olive, dull red and dullblue silken tassels, with a loose net*work heading. The top of the shade)shows a coil of golden cords, ending inloops and tassels. Rucbinga of garnetcrepe de chine, thickly sewn on a largoparasol frame, with a deep edge ofblack Spanish lace, is very effective.

A light blue shade, with pale pinkroses painted on the edge and finishedwith a. deep flounce of creamy lace'would be most charming ia a lightroom. If one can make pretty paperflowers, a shade of pale pink ro3&3 isalways nice.

A great number of the new lamps areof black wrought iron ribbon work, andmost of the shaded for them are ofopen work metal set thlckjy with col-ored glass.

A really pretty home-made shademay be made of strings of colored beadsthickly sown on a narrow ribbon for aheading, and used as a cover for a porce-lain shade.

Among the cheaper materials for useas portieres, or any decorative haag-ings, is dernin, or waterproof duck. Itis double-faced, and comes in twoshades of blue or brown. As a portiereit hangs soft, and with a wide band ofthe pale blue set six inches from thetop on the dark curtain, and fin-ished off with tassels of dull redand olive, a very pretty and ef-fective curtain for a closet is found.Domin can also be used for walls, thereverse side of the material, whichshows & darker color, forming thebordering. It also takes paint likecanvas, and can be used for screens,which is most desirable, as it is muchcheaper.

Pretty work for tbe summer is themaking of photograph frames, and afew hints many, be of service. Haveyour frames cut for you out of moder-ately heavy pasteboard in whatevershape you wish, those showing a deep,wide border and oval top being thenewest, and for the large ones, those ofthree sides, holding six photographs,the best size; then take whatever ma*terial you prefer—plushes and chintzesare tho most effective, however. Coverthe backs first laying the three piecesfar enough apart to allow of the framefolding together; when finished, linethe front of back with India silk, andput another strip of material betweenthe backs, where the pasteboard doesnot come, so as to make the hinge orplace where it folds stronger; thencover the fronts carefully, using somestrong paste or glue, and then jointhem to the back, leaving on open spaceat the top through which to force thephotographs; press for some time underheavy weights, observing care not touse them until thoroughly dry.—MayLeavitt. in N. Y. Star.

—All wounds, such as running arusty nail into the foot or stepping onsharp instruments, can be healed andavert all danger of lockjaw by a sim-ple remedy. Smoke such wounds withburning wool or woolen cloth. Twentyminutes' application of smoke fromwool will take inflammation out of theworst wounds.—Farm and Home.

—The ordinary method of scrapingor burning off old paint is hardly ex-peditious enough for general purposes,and is also laborious. Soda and quick-lime is far more thorough. The sola*tton of half of each is thus made: Dis-solve the soda in water and then addthe lime and apply with a brush to thaold paint, which can thus bo removedin a few minutes.

—Rhubarb and Oraage Preserves.—Six oranges, two pounds of rhubarbstalks, one pound and a half of sugar;peel the orange carefully, take thewhite rind and the seeds, slice thepulps into a pres«ft*ving kettle, add thepeel cut very fine; then the rhubarb cutin very small pieces, and lastly the su-gar. Boil the whole down in the usualway for preserves.

—Many a baby is drugged with par-egoric and soothing sirups when allthat ft needs, or wants, is a drop ofwater. It is always a safe thing to trya child with a teaspoonful of waterwhen it is restless or evinces a desireto nurse frequently. A child who cannot ask for it often suffers tormentsfor a drop of water. Especially in hotweather Is this true.

—Pickled Plums.—To six pounds ofplums use four pounds of light brownsugar, two ounces of stick cinnamon,one ounce of cloves and one quart ofvinegar. Scald the vinegar, and sugartogether with the spices and pour overthe plums which are in a jar. Aftertwo days pour the vinegar in a porce-la n kettle and when hot add the plumsand cook a few minutes, then put inglass cans and they will soon bo readyfor use.—Good Housekeeping.

It will beready for use in two or three days. Itis well adapted for washing delicatecolored articles, also to add to the wa-ter for shampooing the head. Mixedwith water and sprayed upon plants, itwill kill any insects Infesting them,and also act as a fertilizer. —ChristianUnion.

Sleep Product by Hypnotism,

An interesting case of changing1 natu-ral into hypnotic sleep hu» been con-tributed by the Amsterdam physician,Dr. Rentorghera, to "Tbe Tydschriftvoor Geneeskunde." Some days ago,1'he writes, "I traveled together in arailway carriage with a friend whom Ihad cured of rheumatism by hypnoticsuggestion. He fell asleep in the cor*ner of the carriage, ana I passed myhand three times over his leg exactlytis I had done when treating him byhypnotism. Then I put his arm in ahorizontal position, in which it remain-ed without movement, and whisperedto him that he must continue to bleeptill we reached our destination, when Jexpected him to hand over to me the fivegulden he owed me at the dinner table,and with a proper apology. The sleep*er nodded and promised to do everything he was told. As sopn as thetrain stopped he awoke, and when wewere sitting at the table ho handed th#)money over to me, with many apol*ogles. The case allows that by merelypassing the hand over the knee whichwa# formerly diseased, the pattent hadfallen into that peculiar sleep whichhitherto has only been brought on bylooking fixedly at a patient by address-ing him and shutting hi» ejeilds.•*

Aa interetUng communication {apaper votiUod,. "Toe Crown ofw " iitites comment from any of

h h h byour readers whose research hat beendirected AJ to the especial plant fromwhich the crown was woven, write* aConnecticut correspondent of the 2fewYork Herald.

The popular conception of the crown«i thorny representing a twistedbranch of bare thorns resting upon theSavior1* brow, is derived from ancientreligious paintings. The tradition i§sanctioned also in carved erqcltixes,ancient and modern. The design i»graceful, and the bleeding wounds in-flicted bv the long, sharp apines areintended to indicate suffering.

No authority fondvaaced for sach ftpresentation of the subject other thanlicense accorded to painter's imagiBa-Uon, and (hat which was in part de-signed for graceful, artistic effect ha*now crystallized iato- acceptancethrough tradition.

WhaU»ver evidence w» hare concern-Ing the real crown which encircled theSavior's brow is to be Jownd in thescriptures themselves*

Twelve times the word thorns U re-peated in the new testament. The oc-casions are in connection with Christ'sspeaking concerning "gathering figsor grapes from thorns*1' the parable ofthe sower whose seed fell among tbora*and in the narratives of the crowningof the Savior with thorns by Romansoldiers in Pilate's judgment hall. Ineach instance the Greet text gives theWord akantha% the lexicons translatingit a thorn, a thorn bush in the senseof a plant. The only remaining oc-currence in the new testament is in II.Corinthians xii»t- 7, were Paul speaks

\ of"a thorn in the flesh," in which it isskolops, translated in the lexicons, athorn, anything pointed, as a sharp.

spin© quite- distant from athorn plant.

The savior in asking whether mengather tigs or grapes Apo akanthoon ex.akantftoon, manifestly refers to leaf-bearing tree* or shrubs of the thornspecies, as the context plainly shows,and not the spiaa growing thereon.So the erown of thorns is also de-scribed in the Greek as Stcpha?ionexakanUiaon^ refyring to the plants, notto iho spiues upon theplants.

Tno akautha or the acanthus, itsLatin derivative, is one of manyspecies of the thorn. Of the acanthusthere are several varieties.

The tnosfc familiar jissociation of theword with us" is in designation of thatshrub with ending leaver, clusteredon short stocky stem, from which theGreeks modeled the, graceful capitalsof their Corinthian eohinnjs. But

"A new theory has been started with regard to the use of soapon the face. Women who for years have been careful of their com-plexions would never, under any circumstances, wash the face insoap, as it was said to roughen and coarsen the skin. Now, thatIvory Soap has been invented, this idea is exploded, and a well-known physician in the metropolitan profession recommencfe hiswomen patients to use it freely every cky, lathering the skin welhHe states that none but the most bencSrfa! jresufts wiH be efltctedby thfe niethocj of i"mproyiitg the s&fjii.

He holds—with considerable plausifoilLty-—that the pores of dieface become as much clogged by grease and dirt as the hands or anyother portion of the body. And if soap is considered a necessarypurifier in the bath,, its needs must be felt equally on the face. Byan abundant and regular lathering" the facial pores, heelaims, are keptopen, dean, free from the clogging matter that produces unsightlyblackheads, acne, pimples* and a pure, healthy, fresh and brightercomplexion is the resultant Not mincing matters, he ggiys that thetrouble with most women who Iiave^alldAV, pasty sirins is, that fromyear's cad to year's end they never have a really clean iace.''

:\«et Th«lr Death Unflinchingly—Story of Their Crimes.

YORK, Aug. 2A.—For the first timein the history of the Tombs four murderersexpiated their crimes on the scaffold withina few minutes of each other, Friday morn-ing. The situation of the gallows on eachof which two men were haaged was suchthat an interval of five minutes was neces-sary between the two executions. The scenein the little chapel where mass was saidand the subsequent farewells between themen were Very impressive. The two Catho-lic priests who administered consolation tothe men during their last hours stayed withthem until the last minute. Preparationsfor the conducting of the flrst of the men tothe gallows were commenced about 6:30.At 6:44 Carolin and Lewis were takenacross the prison yard tc the boys'prison,where they were pinioned.

As soon as Lewis and Carolin had beentransferred, the sheriffs and priests thatconducted them returned and a momentlater the hangman was summoned to makepreparations for the hanging of Packenhamand Nolan. As soon as these were com-pleted the hangman returned to his placeunder the gallows and in a few minutesFackenham and Nolan were led out to thescaffold. Tbe sheriff and under sheriff ledthe way, while the condemned were flankedon one side by a priest and on the other byan officer. They walked with a firm step,but their faces wore anxious expressions.They had only about forty feet to go andwere soon placed under the cross-beam.Both had already been pinoned and theblack caps were on their heads, ready to bedrawn over their faces, and the nooses wereabout their necks. The men emerged fromthe prison at 6:48, and two minutes later thenooses were adjusted, the black caps drawnand the rope holding the Weight was cutIn a twinkling the bodies of the two mur-derers shot up into the air a distance ofabout four feet and fell back within twofeet of the ground.

Packenham died in seven minutes, whileNolan survived a minute longer. They wereallowed to hang some thirty minutes beforebeing cut down and placed in coffins. Themost moving scene about this hanging wasthe awful expressions on the faces of themen as they took their places under the gal-lows. Nolan's jaw hung down, his lipsquivered and for a moment he looked asthough be wduld collapse. He -• quickly re-covered himself, however, and although hislips still trembled there was a regular mo-tion which showed that he was repeating aprayer. Fackenham was also evidentlypfayiag. The bodies were cut down afterhanging a half hour and placed in coffinsand turned over to their friends. Bothmen were in their coffins withiu fifty min-utes of the time when they marched out tathe gallows.

Almost on the stroke of seven o'clockLewis and Carolin came out from the boys'prison. When they came in sight of thegallows Carolin turned pale and tightlyclutched the hand of the priest by his side.He looked straight ahead while he puffedhard at a half-smoked cigar. In strong con-trast to the demeanor of the German wasthe manner in which the negro, Lewis, ap-proached, his fate. His face beamed withsmiles and he shook hands right and leftwith several members of the death watch,bidding them ugood-byc" in cheerful tones.In short, he seemed to consider his hangingas the crowning honor of his life. SuddenlyCaroiin relinquished the crucifix and mov-ing his pinioned hands began to jabber ex-citedly in German, speaking so rapidly thathis words could scarcely be caught. Asnearly as could be understood this is whathe meant to say: "I die an innocent man."Lewis remarked in the manner and with theaccent of the typical Bowery tough: "Ah,wat's der matter wid yer; die like a man*"

"I will die like a man," exclaimed Caro-lin, *'but I'll die like an innocent man."

He was still mumbling when hangmanAtkinson black capped him, while the as-sistant drew the cap over the head of Lewis.Then Atkinson gave the signal on the parti-tion which concealed the actual executionerand the latter severed the rope. Down camethe weight and th<? two men were hurledinto eternity. It was 7:03 a. m. when thedrop fell and the whole scene occupied buta couple of minutes. Both men sustainedfractures of the cervical vertebrae and theirdeaths were certainly painless. Lewis wasdead in six minutes and Carolin in four,

Patrick Packenbam, the oldest of the fourmurderers, was sixty years of age. Hemurdered his wife by cutting her throat onMarch 13, 1S8S, because she refused to givemoney to hi#i with which to buy liquor,He was drunk when he killed her.

Jack Lewis, the colored murderer, killedAlice Jackson, a mulatto, on July 17, 1H8S,because she would no longer live with him.He attempted to murder her several monthsbefore he succeeded.

Ferdinand Carolin murdered his wife attheir rooms in Stan ton street. His wife wasan Irish woman. He murdered her in themost brutal manner. He was seen to do itby a woman who lived in the same housewith them. She looked in at a window andsaw Oarolin chopping his wife in the fac«with a hatchet. He was holding her headbetween his knees. He chopped at it againand again, and when she was found by thepolice she was disfigured almost beyondrecognition.

Jamos Nolan murdered Emma Buch, whohad left her husband to !oad a life of shaoio,Hhe had met Nolan and lived with him forawhile, but dually told him to leave her.He threatened her when »he wanted to ridherself of him. Sho locked him out the nextni#ht. The next day he called to BOC her.As she came down the staira he pulled outa pUtol and 11 red at her. 8he was withinthrr-e feet of him when he fired, and fourbullet* entered her abdomen.

Lake reservoir, near Fiskville, in the south-west corner of Cranston, about fifteen milesfrom this cit.y, which supplies a number ofmill villages along the Pawtuxet river,burst Sunday afternoon. Three personswere drowned and some damage done toproperty, A man named Yeaw, who waaabout a quarter of a mile off, noticed tbewater coming through the masonry of thedam in a stream about as big as a Darrel.The hole was apparently growing very rap-idly. The only living object in sight was acow a few hundred feet across the fields,which Yeaw succeeded in rescuing althoughthe water was up to his neck. Meanwhiledown the valley were Mrs. Greeue Tew,aged sixty; Mrs. Hawkins, aged ninety, andMrs. Tew's son, seven years old. They werewalking through a strip of woods and were>overtaken by the flood and drowned. Thairbodies ware found In the woods, through,which the water quickly ran until it emptiedinto the Pawtuxjet river.

The river rose rapidly and caused consid-erable alarm among people along its banks*who thought that the Ponegansett reservoir,the btorgest in the State, bad gone. Many ofthem left their homes and fled, but the.flood subsided as rapidly as it had come.The path of the water from the reservoirwas through a thinly settled country, andthe duly damage to property was the wreck-ing of a stable belonging to Russell Mat-thewson, the capsizing of Dr. E. Clark'acarriage shop and the demolition of thro*road bridges.

Tbe daza was built in 1887 for the serviceof the Pawtuxet Valley Company, redeem-

fing a small swamp locally known as SpruceLake. The reservoir covered eighteenacres and contained about 35,000,000 gallon*of. water. The dam is936'feet long, seven-teen feet nine inches high, eight feet wifie>oa top, and thirty-five feet wide at the boVtorn. The gaj> left by the water is betweensixty and seventy feet long. No examina-tion has* been made to learn the c»use ofthe break. The man Yeaw is toe only wit-ness to any part of'the casualty.•••The res-ervoir was practically emptied*

packing house of Swift & Co., in KansasCity, Kan., was saved from total destruc-tion by fire yesterday by a fortunate shiftof the wirji. As it was, the smoke-house—a structure of corrugated iron—and therendering house were consumed. The firestarted at 9:30 a. m. iu the smoke-house^from some unknown cause. The tire de-partments of both cities responded to tlxe>alarm and were on the grounds in sufficienttime to have checked the blaze in its incep-tion. When the hose connections wereVmade ami the water turned on it was foundthat the pressure was wholly insufficient.Handicapped as they were the ttremencould do practically nothing to subdue theflames, which by that time had almost con-sumed the smoke-house and had communi-cated through a viaduct to the renderingestablishment

After the flames had had their own wayfor about an hour the wind, which had beenblowing from the south, shifted to the north-west and carried the flames away from theadjoining buildings. Shortly afterwardsthe water pressure became sufficient toforce the water from the lines of hose andin an hour the firemen had the flames undercontrol. The smoke-house was totally de-stroyed. The south end of the refining-house was saved. During the fire mastermechanic Tate fell from the roof of thesmoke-house while attempting to descendby a rope and was instantly killed. Thetotal loss on buildings, machinery and stocki» $150,000, with $120,000 insurance.

The localcivil service board and postmaster Wallacebeing unable to ajpro upon the meaning ofthe rules relating to the appointment of oldsoldiers, several days ago asked the com-mission at Washington whether or not aBoldier who had been honorably dischargedwa» to be given preference over civilianswho had attained a high grade in the ex-amination.

In a letter received Saturday the com-mission holds that a soldier is not to begiven preference unless he was dischargedfrom the service on account of disabilitycontracted during his term of enlistment.The ruling was so surprising in its naturethat postmaster Wallace refused to believethat it could be in accordance with thespirit of ttio law. At his request a meetingof the local board to consider the decisionwill be held to-day. The postmaster doesnot think the decision will stand.

THE HANDKEBCHIER

A Cowardly Policy, But the Eas-iest Way Out-

Paul Pevereux and his wife were dis-•cussing the ethics of the French pro-verb; "Va tefairt ptndre ailhurs"\ (Goget hanged e sewhere). The younglawyer was of the opinion that failureto punish a rogue for roguery when dis-^covered was moral cowardice of themost contemptible kind, since it threwthe necessary vindication of outragedlaw upon some one brave man, per-haps the last of a score of victims.

His learned disquisition was inter*rupted by a call from his wife's friend,Siiss MUllngton.

Miss Millington. though not a beauty,"was a yery attractive young woman*Ladies excl'A mod: "How stylish!0 Mensaid: "P^suced fetching!" Her man-ner wa? sprightly and her apparel pos-itively splendid.

vMillington/* repeated Deveroux,"Well, Mary"—Mrs. Devereux's namewas Mary—- • 'I' m off do w n tow n. Bythe way, George Rock ford at the clublast night announced his engagementtoMistiMiUington.11"

••An, yes, dear George!" exclaimedHiss Millington, with enthusiasm,"one couldn't have a better husband-—in one senso. *'

"In every sense, I should imagine,from what 1 know of him,1' said youngMrs. Devereux.

"George Rockford is young, goodookinjj and a Christian; good quali-

ties, those, oh, Mrs. Deveroux?""I think so, indeed."•'Still, there is one great drawback

to his desirability as a husband," ex-claimed Miss MilIhigton; "he is farfrom being rich. He has a fair salaryin a wholesale house, but no independ-ent fortune."

"Lore will suffice," observed sweetlittle Mrs. Devereux, rememberingPaul's parting kiss.

Miss Milling ton looked as If she wereabout to utter a doubt about the valueof love as a circulating medium, butfeeling perhapn that it would be use-less to comment «n a condition of af-fairs which she had accepted for betteror worse, sbe dropped the subject

"I came to get you to go with me fora walk/' said the fetching one, airly."The weather is charming; the storesarc bewildering. Can you come?"

Mary Devereux complied with de-light. Walking alone is dull business.Before leaving the house she called hercook and gave her some necessary di-rections.

"You hare changed your cook sinceI was last here/* remarked Miss Mil-Ungton, when they were in the street

"Ye*, I'm sorry to say we found thatthe other woman was dishonest"

"How shocking!""The very day after you were here

at lunch we missed three sterling silverspoons. Naturally she had to go.'1

"Did you charge her with the

"Oh, no," said Mrs. Devereux, look-ing much dwtresjHjd, " I thought itbetter for our own peace of mind notto have any exposure. It was as muchas I could do to prevent Mr. Devereuxfrom causing her arrest I said: 'She'llget caught sooner or later—let some-body else arrest her/ He said thatwas moral cowardice. Perhaps it wasa bit of weakness on my part StillJ am not the first who has electedfor that course* You . know theIVe.ich proverb: «Go get hanged else-where/"

"We shall-be hinged on the strapsin this car/' whispered Mi** Mil Ungton,with .her most fetching rail*; " i t i ipicked,"

Obliging males favored the two^harming young women with relift-

and the democratic ve-hicle, which runs for alt, soon broughtthem to the special spot where they de-sired to light

Ah, the fascinating occupation ofadmiring shop windows! 'Tis this onehas tb* loveliest thKng—no, 'tis that!There'* just what I wan^t—there'ssomething that would be sweetly be-eoming to you. Yonder is an articlelike one Mr. Lansnoozer brought fromLondon.

"Oh-h-h-h-h!"A subdued icream from the carmine

Hps of fetching Miss Millington. Afew, but only a very few, of the passersin the thronged thoroughfare turned toglance at the pallid features andquiver-ing lips of the young woman, who stoodwith her hand on her heart, looking thepicture of despair.

"What has happened'1 asked MaryDevereux, anxiously.

Only in disjointed phrases at firstcould Miss Millington explain a terriblemishap,

"My purse—stolen—snatched out ofmy hand—"

"Let me tell this policeman/' criedMary, excitedly, pushing her towardan officer who was approaching.

"No, no!" sobbed Miss Millington."Remember just what you have beensayiag—no publicity. Bear any thingrather than endure that Besides, Icould not recognize the thief; It allpassed like a flash."

"Lot us go home—to my home/' saidMary Devereux. "We can talk it allover quietly there."

The return trip was a gloomy one, in^marked contrast to the gayety of theoutward journey. Arriving in Mrs.Devereux's drawing-ii*oom, Miss Milling-*ton flung herself disconsolately in aneasy chair and closed her eye*, thusshutting out the vision of this trouble-some world.

"How much monfly was in yourpurse?"asked Mrs. Devereux, in a sym-pathizing voice.

"Fifty dollars," replied Miss Milling-ton, with a deep sigh. "And it wasnot my money at all; it was my aunt's.I had drawn it from the bank just be-fore I came here. She needs it—musthave it the first thing to-morrow morn-ng to pay the r e n t "

" I think persons in our set supposeyou and your aunt to be very well off/'said Mary, quietly; "you dress so fash-ionably."

"Oh, I am handy and make things goa long way/' explained Miss Milling-ton. "My aunt supports me—she hasa very small income—and now I havelost her $50! Oh, what shall I do?"

Mary Devereux was sadly perplexed.She counted the money in her ownpuise—$20.

'Dear Miss Millington/' she said,"will this be of any service to you? Itis all I have by me."

Miss Millington gathered the crispbit* of green paper to herself, butheaved another sigh of despair.

"Thanks/' she murmured, faintlyr

"but it is not enough. I must have$50. Then my aunt can settle her rent,and 1 will repay the sum by degrees-after I am married.'1

The case was so urgent that Maryfelt justified in going to her husband'sprivate desk, where, to her great de-light, she found $25.

Miss Millington absorbed the finan-cial reinforcement with some appear-ance of satisfaction, but her voice rangwith added tragedy as she queriedwhere the remaining $5 were to comafrom.

Never would the proposal have beenput by Mary Devereux that the ser-vants should bo appealed to! It wasMiss Millington who suggested the ne-cessity of laying the case before themas women and sisters. Good creatures!Their hearts were as soft as their handswore hard, and between them the need-ed $5 were without difficulty raised.

- Scarcely had the arrangement reach-ed this happy conclusion than PaulDevereux returned,

"Still here, Mias Millington/1 he ex-claimed, in his pleasant, hearty voice.••Glad of i t Stay to dinner and go tothe theater with us this evening/1

And oh, such a pretty present as hehad brought home for his wife! A

v handkerchief of the finest French cam-bric with afrillandentredeuxof Valen-ciennes and the letter M embroideredin one corner. "Just like my darlinghusband!" said Mary Devereux, kissinghim furtively when Miss Miilington'sback was turned.

At dinner Mary showed her newtreasure, which Miss MilUngton greatlyadmired.

"How sweetly pretty!" she exclaim-ed, examining the dainty mouchoir withher eyeglass. "Marked with your in-itial, M—mine. too, by the way."

'•One which you wij.l soon lose,"quothen Paul, archly.

"Oh, no, you mistake/1 she replied,"my name Is Matilda."

The dramatio performance was inter*esting. Th*e threjo young people werein high spirits until just as &ey weredeparting, when Mary Devereux madeaa annoying discovery. She had lo*tbe- new lace handkerchief. • .. Paul .was more than jnaaojeed; he ww

downright angry. The little Articlebud cott money, and he said there wu

no sense in losing ft right oif lathisway. He had teen It in hts wife's lapnot five minutes before; where could ithave gone to?

The natural inference was that shehad dropped it, and all three lookedabout the floor of the theater, when©*the crowd had now departed.

"If it's found I'll save it for you,*•aid an employe of the place, "call to-morrow/'

Meanwhile Paul's quick eye observed» strange thing. Miss Millington, whowas condoling with his almost tearfulwife, kept her right fist tightly closed;but between the little finger and thepalm thereof a shred of lace was visi-ble.

Without a with-your-leave or by-your-! save Paul wrenched this articleout of her grasp.

"What's this?" he cried.It was tho missing handkerchief."Is this a joke?" he exclaimed, glar-

ing angrily into the blanched face ofMatilda MilUngton.

The woman, who had cowered guil-tily under his accusing glance, tookheart of grace at the word he kindlyused. •

"Yes, yes, quite so," she gasped, witha hysterical laugh; "a joke—a merejoke.71

"It is a very bad one/' h« retorted,savagely.

The three walked in silence to thestreet There Paul put Miss Millingtoninto a hack, paid the driver and senther home alone.

Mary Devoreux was terribly shockedat the occurrence. Naturally she toldher husband of the peculiar incident ofthe afternoon, which had resulted inher giving Miss Millington $50.

"It was all a trick!'1 exclaimed Paul,pacing up and down in their small draw-ing room in his agitation; "the woman's& swindler—indeed, a thief."

The secret of Miss Miilington's elab-orate dressing seemed to be suddenlyrevealed to Mary's mind.

"We will drop her acquaintance, ofcourse," observed the little wife.

"Ah, but that will not absolve us ofresponsibility in the matter/* criedPaul, excitedly. " I must not shirkthe moral duty which is obvious here.I must tell George Eockford of allthis."

Mary wrung her hands in sym-pathy with the poor erring creature,who had been their guest half the longday.

• "Oh. doa't, don't, don't!" she cried;"it will ruin her life!"" A n d it will break his heart, for he

loves her dearly," said Paul, sadly,"but it must be done."

"Why not let him find out for him-self," urged the gentle Mary, "and in-flict such punishment as he sees fit?"

"That infernal French bit of sophis-try again!11 he exclaimed. "Cut it! Iam not a coward and will do my duty,though a more unpleasant one neverfell to my lo t "

In the morning he wired Rock ford tocome to his (Paul's) house at the earli-est possible moment He was bracinghis nerves for the painful interviewwhen the door-bell rung.

It was Miss Millington—pale, wild-eyed, gasping.

What did she say? What did she notsay? Every thing that a weak and sin-ning woman could eay under the cir-cumstances. The lovo of dress hadtempted her; her position of dependencewas so galling; tho necessity of keep-ing appearances was so absolute in theultra-fashionable set in witich theymoved; and, after all, her maneuvershad not been unsuccessful; she hadcaught a husband—a good man—

Paul pounced upon the truthfulepithet.

"Too good for you," he cried. "Heshall know of this from my lips. 1would deem it dishonorable to withholdthis knowledge from him. I have sentfor him."

"He U coming here?" she asked indismay.

" I expect him every instant," hosaid* calmly.

"Let me go" she cried, rushing to-ward the door.

Paul turned the key, took it out,pocketed i t Miss Millington sank intothe easy chair. Mary wept

"Ob, Paul, husband, you are cruel,"sbe said betweed her sobs.

Mr. Rockford was announced. Paulunlocked the door and let him in. Hehad had difficulty in getting away frombusiness, he said, but the telegram wasso peremptory; what could be the mat-ter?

A deathly silence fell on the group.Paul, who had counted so confidentlyon bis power to disclose to his friendknowledge which would make himmiserable for life, suddenly found him-self tongue-tied. George Rockfordlookod from one to the other of thetrio in complete astonishment at thUstrange demeanor.

"Will you kindly explain the mean-ing of this scene, one or the other ofyou?" he asked, in the quiet, directmanner of the business man.

No one answered.A rap at the door broke the sjlenoe.*<ty»e in," ccje4 VU*T Pev.ereux.To h»r intense surprise the servant

who had been recently dtachargtd

walked Into the r o o * withA man of fleshy, thabty apparel andditto manner closely followed her,

"Excuse my coming right into yourparlor/' said the woman, in curt polite-ness, ((but my business is of that kindthat you don't want to let grass growunder your feet about i t See? WhatI mean to say is, you thought I stolespoons, didn' t you?"

"What if we did?" cried Paul,angrily.

"What?" roared the indignant ser-vant "Why, I'm an honest woman, Iam, though I cook and wash. Spoonsis safe where I am, and how many ofthose present can say the saffie?"

"Walk out of the place," shoutedPaul, in a frenzy.

"In two minute* and a half I will,"replied the raaolute person, who hadcome to vindicate her character. "SamRowley, perduce them spoons."

Her follower, with an apologetic air,extracted three handsome silver soupspoons from tho side pocket of hisoo*t

"Pawned with me/' he whistledthrpugh the aperture caused by the lossof several of his front teeth, "by MissMillington!"

"Them spoons was lost the day shelunched with you." went on the Ama-zonian accuser, "and next day they waspawned with S. Rowley, a cousin ofmine, which is here. Books will show1 ain't making no trumped-*up charge.She's got the pawn ticket sommeres,you'll find/' and the injured persontossed her head indignantly.

George Rockford looked like a manwho is on the verge of lunacy.

"Paul. Paul!" he criedi with a bittermoan, "explain all this to me, I beg:-^I entreat of you."

"Don't ask me, George; I can't'groaned Paul, hiding his face in hisbands. .

Miss Millington rose to her feetslowly.

«*The whole question is this, GeorgeRockford," she said, in an icy Voice,"would you marry a woman of loosoprinciples as regards—well," doggedly,"stealing?'

"No!" he shouted."Then nothing remains, I suppose,

but for me to say good-bye to you?"she queried.

"Nothing whatever," he roared, lus-tily, "if you hold such principles."

Almost before they know it she wasgone—she and her accusers. They haddeparted cither separately or together,no one noticed which.

**I will explain the matter to you indetail, George," said Paul, sadly,"when I feel a trifle more composed.Meantime, what is our real duty here?Ought we to punish this guilty wom-an?11

"No, no/' replied Rockford, gravely."Let her go. Wo shall have nothingmore to do with her; and if she shouldpursue her criminal practices amongother less lender-hearted than our-selves, why, let them inflict"

Mary Devereux smiled and shruggedher shoulders a la Francaise.

"The very policy I urged upon Paul,1'she said, with a sigh. " 'Go get hang-ed elsewhere/ It is cowardly, but iiis the easie&t way out"—Pbiladelphit'Times.

WIT AN© WISDOM.

—A woman tired of hearing of loreisvtired of loving,

—A great intellect requires a pureheart as much as the dullest lntelH»gence.

—Custom is a prison, locked andbarred by those who long ago weredust, the keys of which are In the keep*ing of the dead.

— Death is like thunder in two par-ticulars: We are alarmed at the soundof it; and it is formidable only fromthat which preceded it.—Col ton.

—Tight shoes and whisky are bad forthe human system. One makes thecorns grow, and the other swells thehead. —Shoe and Leather Review.

—There are mo a in this world whohave more jawbone thaa backbone.They say a great many things thatthey do not stand up to.— N. O. Pica-yune.

—The reason why so few men aremade on a large pattern is that it is notsafe to trust a man out in the worldwith large brains. There is a greateconomy therefore in that direction!

—The censure of our fellowmen,which we are so prone to esteem »proof of our superior wisdom, is to*often only tbo evidence of the conceitthat would magnify self, and of the:malignity or envy that would detractfrom others. —T. Edwards,

—It has been well said that one "whois constantly endeavoring to vindicatehis own reputation, usually has a reputa-tion which" is not worth vindicating.rt

A man who is genuinely right himselfwill as a rule be his own vindicationwithout any special effort oa his part.—Independent

—There U no true and constant gen-tleness without humility; while we areso fond of ourselves we are easily of-fended with others. Let us be persuad-ed that nothing Is due to us, and thennothing will disturb us. Let us oftenthink of our infirmities, and we shallbecome indulgent toward those of oth-ers.—Fenelon.

—What man is going to be jolly, gen-erous, attractive to you if you meethim with sour, insulting manners. Thetreatment wo receive trora our friendscomes from our own actions. Thosewho are surrounded with friends do notthink of self, do not struggle to be en-tertaining-; they are thoughtful of tMHmind of their neigh bora

—Notoriety is not fame. A man maygain notoriety by his follies or by biscrimes; but fame comes only to thosewho bavte forgotten themselves In theirdoing of something worthy of theirbest endeavors. A man may gain noto-riety "by pursuing it; but fame is ordW

In Memoriam.

Tears end bitterness Hod sorrow;Smiles and happiness, and mirth?

Then a hushing1 of our foot steps,r+ d a digging of the arth,

Am. we leave our human story:cv me of bud and eotue of good,

A' tho Krcatest to be said of us—Wo have done the best we cotild.

"But there is one glory of the Aim,another glory of the moon, and anoth-er glory of the stars; for as one stardiffereth from another in glory, so al-so is the resurrection of the dead. Itis sown in corruption, it is raised iuincoiTuption."

It is a needless thing to write wordsof tribute to the dead. W••• owe? ourtributes and our kind words to the liv-ing wlio are so humanly dependent,—but for the little children of this youngmother wlioiw love wilt be but a'mem-ory to cne of them and a stovy to theother; this is written as an offering tothat sacred remembrance.

To those who were with Mrs. Mill-ard during her long illness, the exper-ience was a most beautiful lesson. Shewas so full of patience, of uncomplain-ing submission, of unselfish affectionfor her dear ones, and of readiness to

• .do the will oi'the Father to the ut-most, that those who attended herlearned what it is for 'hitman sufferingto bear the image of heaven.

As a girl Mrs. Millard was brightarid attractive, impulsive, and warmof temperament, gifted with a keensenieof enjojment of the pleasantthings of life and a love of the beauti-ful. There are many in Oorunna whohave known her as a girl, wife andmother, and H may well be said of herthat she has done what she could. Shehas been u most loving and iaithliiwife, a fond .'mother to her two littlechildren, and her father and mothermourn the loss of a most affectionatedaughter. The love of life is strongin every one of us and she would havelived for her dear ones; in fact herwilling spirit and strong affection wereher inspiration in her long strugglewith the couquerer and those who .wit-nessed .her parting with her littlechildren were strongly impressed withthe strength of mother love.

God knows the rest. Her husbandloved her, her little children neededher; father, mother and friends wouldhave kept her, but she has passedbeyond the glory of life to the otherglovy, which is of immoi'tality.

But the sweetest, we Sovetf nob.y.And unselfishly, our lx»»t—

There w« j>aun<*—it is our greatest,And our Jb'ttthcr knows the rest.

Bo we leave our huuiuu '<tory,Dimmed with Ma and.- niu of tears—

Leave it for the oiher gU>ryFast the touching of tbe years.
