Each of the.servants declined the task witt the stereotyped excuse, "It ain't mj place to pick berries." Ord, in his "History of Cleveland," relates an an ecdote of Margaret Wharton who while accepting her servants' excuse yet made them do her will. In one of her visits to Scarborough Mrs. Wharton, with her usual econo - j? my, had a family pie roruinuer, wmuu she directed the footman to convey tc the bakehouse. This the man declined to do, as not belonging to his place, or rather as derogatory to his consequence. The lady then moved the question to the coachman, but found a still stronger objection. To save the pride of both, Mrs, Wharton resolved to take the pie tc the shop herself. She ordered one man to harness and bring out the horses, and the other to mount and ride behind, and thus the errand was done with all honor and ceremony, Then in due time the coachman was ordered to put to a second time, and the footman to mount behind, and Mrs. Wharton brought back the pie in the same dignified state. "Now," said the lady to the coachman, "you have kept your place, which is to drive; and you yours," to the footman, "which is to wait; and I mine, which is to have my pie for dinner." An Anxious Mother.?There is an atrpd colored woman down town who does not believe in social equality, to judge from the way she talked to her boy: "Ephreham, come hyar to yer mudder, boy. Whar you bin ?" "Playin' wid de white folkses chillun." "You is, eh ? See hyar, chile, you'll broke your^old mudder's heart, and brung her gray hairs in sorrow to de grave wid yer recklumness an' carryings on wid ebil assoayshuns. Habn't I raised you up in de way you should ought to go ?" "Yessum." "Habn't I been kine an' tender wid you, an' treated you like my own chile, which you is ?" "Yessum." "Habn't I reezened wid you, and prayed wid you, and deplored de good Lord to wrap you in his buzzum ?" "Yessum." "An' isn't I yer naterl detector an' gardeen fo' de law ?" "Yessum." "Well, den, do you 'spose I'se guine to hab yer morals ruptured by the white trash? No, sah! You git in de house dis instep; an' if I ebber cotch you 'municatin' wid de white trash any mo', fo' de Lord, nigga, I'll brake yer black bead wid a brick !" "Yessum." Taken Up.?Judge Coffey, of San Francisco, is described by The News Letter of that city as having a strong disapproval of garrulity. A lawyer, he declares, should cultivate conciseness. An attorney, learned in the law but afflicted with the disease of long windedness in a peculiarly malignant form, was neatly cut short by the tart and astute probate judge. After pleading in a very plain case, with wearisome prolixity, the worthy attorney suddenly asked in a rhetorical vein, but with no idea of concluding his argument: "Need I say more ?" Judge Coffey had been impatientjy waiting for an opening and, perceiving his opportunity, answered quickly, but with the blandest courtesy : "No, brother, you need say nothing more." Before the lawyer realized the remark of the court, and while he was about to resume his oration, standing with open mouth and outstretched hand, Judge Coffey decided against him, dismissed the proceeding and called the next case on bis docket. Not the Grip.?There is a family in this city which lives in constant awe of the grip, and this fear is particularly centered on the small boy of the house, albeit he is a robust specimen of his age. The other day the small boy sneezed. This was enough to alarm the entire household. He continued sneeziug, and his mother suggested sending for a doctor, as she was sure he was going to be ill. "Do you feel sick ?" she asked, tenderly. "Do you think you are getting the grip?" "Grip nothing !" ejaculated the boy, Kotii'oon nornTVSm?I vnPP'/pq "I \VB? washing my face and got soap up my nose?n-chew-achew !"?Detroit Free Press. The Mule Laughed.?When Enos was still a youngster, his uncle one day drove a new span of mule3 into the yard. As the children were admiring them, one of the mules suddenly gave vent to a most terrific bray, The little fellow had never heard such frightful sounds before, and, badly scared, ran screaming into the house, The next day the mules were driven out again, but Enos refused to go near, and when asked the reason, he replied, "I'se so' f'aid Vncle David's mule will laugh at me again." #6T A good story is related at the expense of "Bob" Ingersoll. The colonel was recently talking with an old colored woman in Washington concerning religious matters. "Do you really believe, aunty," said he, "that people are made out of dust ?" "Yes sah ! The bible says dey is, and so 1 b'lieve it." "But what is done in wel weather; when there is nothing but mud?"

Memory Versei, 15-17?Golden Text, Pi. xxxlv, 7?Commentary by the Rev. D. M. Stearns. 8. "Then the king of Syria warrod against Isrnol and took oounsol with his servants, saying, In such and 6ucb a place shall be ray camp." From the story of Cain and Abel onward all the characters in tho Bible are either for God or against Him and are seen either leaning upon His wisdom or upon their own. But the borrowed ax at tho bottom of the river tells the condition of all men apart fropi God. All are lost and helpless to rocover themselves, and how can such think to do aught for or offeotuully against God? The stick that caused the iron to swim and bo recovered is, like tho tree cast irreo the waters of Mara, suggestive of Him who is the Treo of Lifo, who only can recover lost souls or make bitter waters sweet. 9. "And the man of God sont unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou pass not such a place, for thither the Syrians are oomo down." Surely the Lord Godwill do nothing, but He revealeth His secret unto His servants, the prophets (Amos ili, 7). As He told Samuel about Saul whom He would 6end to him to be anointed king, and also told him what would happen to him the day he left him, adding, "Do as occasion serve thee, for God is with thee," so Ho sees theond from the beginning of every day for each of us, and if we leave our way with Him He will bring It to pass and order our 6teps to His glory and to our highest good. 10. "And the king of Israel sont to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of and saved himself there, not once nor twice." Thus illustrating II Chron. xx, 20, "Bolieve in tho Lord, your God, so shall ye be established; beliove His prophets, so shall yo prosper." There is nothing on earth so suro as the Word of God, for it is forever settled in heaven (Ps. oxix, 89), and, though all else may fade and fail, the Word of our God shall stand forever (Isa. xl, 8). 11. "Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was 6ore troubled for this thing, and he called bis servants and said unto them, Will ye not 6how me which of us is for the r\P 7cwnnl9'' nnlnca tHnrn woq a AiUg VJLL AOiUWi A Vft vmv.v ff uu m traitor among his men, how else could his plans be made known to his enemy? Thus reasoned the king of Syria, for he knew naught but human wisdom, and yet he know that the inourable diseaso of leprosy bad been healed in Israel, and was it not possible that one who had connection with such power might also be able to reveal secrets? 12. "And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king, but Elisha, the prophet, that is in Israel, telletb the king of Israol the words that thou speakoth in thy bedohamber." Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not seo him? salth the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? said the Lord (Jcr. xxiii, 24). Thou compassest my path and my lying down and art acquainted with all my ways, for there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, Thou knowost it altogether. Yea, the darkness hideth not from Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness and the light are both aliko to Thee (Ps. exxxix, 8, 4, 12). It was one of the servants who told the king about Elisha, and it was the servants who persuaded Naaman to wash and be clean. 13. "And ho 6aid, Go and 6py where ho is, that I may send and fetoh him. And it was told bim, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan." How blind and stupid people are who know not Godl Even the devil himself seems at times to act like aporfect fool. Might not the king of Syria have said, "Well, if this man somehow knows my secret plans and tells his king, there is no use in my trying to get him, for he will know that I am coming and can hide himself from me." But bo is blinded by bis master, the devil, and goes heodlessly on, bent on his own purposes. 14. "Therefore sent be thither horses and chariots and a great host, and they came by night and compassod tho city about." He must have felt that Elisha was more than on ordinary man or ho would not havo thought it necessary to 6end such a host to tako ono man. So ho does the best he knows how to got his man, and to be more sure of taking him he does it secretly by night, so that no human eyes can sou what ho is doing, for he knows nothing of Him to whom the darkness and the light are aliko. 15. "And when tho servant of the mau of God was risen early and gone forth, bohold, un hostcompussed the city, both with nn/1 A nil klo onwi'n n f oniil UUisco uuu vuntiuvo ahu mo ovt ? uuu duiu unto him, Alns, my master, how shall wo do?" In two cases wo have seen sorvants wiser than their musters, but this servant does not seem to have profited as he might by having such a master. Even our Lord had to say to ono of His disciples, "Have I been so long time with you and yet hast thou not known mo, Philip?"(John xiv, 9). 16. "And ho answered, Fear not, for they that be with us are more than they that be with them." Hero is faith seoing the unseen. Moses endured as seoing Him who is invisible. The things seen are temporal, but the things unseen are eternal. Happy are thoso who have lcarnod to see tho things thot are invisible to ordinary eyes, who, like Stephon, look up steadfastly into heaven und see the glory of God and Josus and find comfort in His words, "Because I livo, yo shall live also" (John xlv, 19). God would hove His people without fear, and a prayerful study of the "fear nots" from the first one in Gen. xv, 1, onward would greatly tend to this happy state of mind wbioh would be very much to God's glory. 17. "And Elisha prayed and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his oyes that he may see. And the I^ord rimmed tho eves of thevounii man, and he saw, and.'bohold, the mountain wns full of hor-scs and chariots of fire roundabout Elisha." Wo read in Rev. V, 11, thut tho angels aro 10,UU0 times 10,000 and thousands of thousands, and a few of these would bo sufficient to take care of Elisha. Our Lord said that His Father would give Him 12 legions of them if He asked for them, and we are told that they aro ministering spirits, ministering unto the heirs of salvation (Heib. i, 14). 18. "And when theycamedown to him, Elisha prayod unto tho Lord and said, Sraito this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And He smoto thorn with blindness, aocording to tho word of Elisha." Notice also Klishu's third prayer and answer in this Incident in verse 20, aud if you earnestly covet such intimate fellowship with God, make John xlv, 18, 14, a very prayerful study, understanding that "In His name" means at least "on His business," and asking such things as He Himself would ask. We must not imagine Elisha Bpeaklng anything but truth in verse 19, for the man whom the king of Syria wanted was really the king of Israel. pisceUtutcous grading. THE DOG DAYS. The Feriod Set During the Dog Star's Presence. The subject of dog days is a very interesting one at this time of the year, and there are many opinions as to when dog days really begin, when they end, and what .they are. Some people hold that dog days do not begin until August 1st, while others contend that they begin on July 28th. The origin of the dog days is very antique, and they came about in this way: The great heat of July led to a superstition among Romans. They conceived that the pre-eminent warmth and the diseases and other calamities flowing from it were somehow con nected with the rising and setting of the star Canicula, or Little Dog star, in coincidence with the sun. They accordingly conferred the name of dog days upon the period between the 3d of July and the 11th of August. So, the 20 days following the rising of the dog star constituted the dog days of the Roman superstition. The poet, Horace, even believed in this superstition. He makes allusion to it in bis address to the Blandusion Fountain, iD which be remarks that the influence of the dog star has made the water warmer. Yet, Sirius, the dog star, otherwise called Canicula?which the Romans, without any reason, regarded as the star of evil omen?is a very big thing. It is a star of the first magnitude, says the astronomers, located in the constellation of the Great Dog, and the brightest in the heavens. This star is only 123,000,000,000 miles from the earth, and has a proper, that is to say, independent motion of its own. It would take 400 suns like ours, at the distance that Sirius is from the earth, to send us as much light as that star. Our sun at that distance would be less than a star of the sixth magnitude and would be invisible to the naked eye.

Summary of the News That Is Heine Published by Exchanges. CHESTER?The lantern, August 12: One of the candidates for congress in the Fifth district says he has resolved henceforth in his speeches to refrain from the unnecessary use of the names, titles, and attributes of the Deity. He thanks The Tantern tor calling attention to the matter. We will not name the candidate now, but will ask those who bear tbem speak to notice whose speeches are free from this blur. Mr. R. H. Ferguson 'pones that he could have picked 15 or 20 pounds of cotton several days ago. As Mr. J. T. McCrorey brought us the first boll, we trust Mr. Ferguson will bring us the first bale by the middle of next week. Rev. J. E. Grier is moving into the new parsonage. Mr. D. J. Macaulay, who has bought the old parsonage, will move there next week. Mr. R. B. Massey will move to the house now occupied by Mr. Macaulay, on York street. ' Lieutenant T. C. Howze went to Columbia yesterday with 27 more men for Captain Crawford's company. They now have about 80 men. It is worthy of note that Chester's two companies will be designated by consecutive letters of the alpbapet. The first is company D, of the First regiment. It seems almost certain now that the second will go in as company E, of the Second regiment. Mr. J. Ed Cornwell, son of Mr. Eli Cornwell, of Cornwell, and Miss Jessie Ross, daughter of Mr. John Ross, were married yesterday evening at Blackstock, by Rev. P. B. Iugraham. There cppms to he less interest taken in doI itics in the Wylie's Mill section at this time, than in years. Some think Mr. Featherstone will be governor, others think Mr. Ellerbe. So far as the writer can learn, this part of the county is in favor oif prohibition. This being the case, Mr. Featherstone will, of course, get a majority of the votes. As to the other candidates but very little is known. Dr. J. M. Brice has been appointed by Lieutenant Colonel Thompson examining pbysican for Captain Crawford's company. Rev. J. B. Swann, of Bullock's Creek, went down to Salem, Fairfield county, this morning. LANCASTER?Ledger, August 13: At Rock Hill, Mr. Pollock, one of the congressional candidates, asked Dr. Strait if the newspapers had represented him correctly in saying that he claimed that be did not support the resolution adopted by congress (in reference to war) because it did not go u far enough. Dr. Strait denied that he had said any such thing.
