e Pointed P?ru?fr?|?liM. Chicago News. A horse isn't any heavier when he is led. The poet paints with words: the advertiser speaks with type. The more hours children study at school the faster they don't learn. Never look for trouble, but when you meet it put up your most strenuous fight. A prudent man never butts into advertising his bravery. If remorse were the advance agent of temtatiou there would probably be less sin in the world. A man gets a lot of things he doesn't want in this world and a woman wants a lot of things she doesn't get. The book of life is an arithmetic in which the answers to the problems are conspicuous on account of their absence. I shall not hasten my death by be ing ready, but sweeten it. It makes me not die the sooner, but the better. Trust in the mercy of God, even if the sharp sword be at your throat; he forsakes noue of his creatures to give them to destruction. He who knows the Law, and has no fear of God, is like the ruler of a synagogue who has only the key of the inner door, but not the outer. A friend, who, as often ashe sees you, tells you in secret your faults, is better than the one who, whenever he meets you, gives you a gold piece. Forsake youself, resign youself, and you shall enjoy great inward peace Give all for all. Ask for nothing, desire no return. You shall be free in heart and darkness shall notcoveryou. If we ceace to be kind even fora few days it shows in the tone of our life as others know us. "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." An idle man is never truly happy, nor is he the best maker of happiness for others. All that men have, and all that they are asked to attend to is the present. There is no such thing as religion in ?Anininn svrklxr* i f ia llfa f\V il WU1U3 auvt upiuiuu yuij , XV io x?*v, Vf* .. is nothing. If for only a day we fail in showing kindness, our band will lose something of its skill in life's sweet ministry. Take care of the now, and the future will take care of itself. Say kind words to the sorrowful ami do kind deeds to the needy. We learn to love more by loving. We get joyous by rejoicing. Weknow thatalhbiugs work together for good to them that love God. Probably the most of the difficulties; of trying to live the Christian life arise from attempting to half live it. Delightthpself in the Lord and he shall give thee the desires of thy heart. No man's success or health shall evei reach beyond his own confidence. If you would have all the world love you, you must first love all the world.

Beau Brummel, after he had spent his life in rounds of pleasure, dancing with the princesses of the land, pointed to a dog as he lay asleep in the sun and said, "I wish I were that dog." As material forces are useful to man only when obedient to his will, so man's will is helpful in the kingdom of righteousnesness only when submissive to God's will. The abidingpresence of God istheheritage of every child of God. The Father never hides His face from His child. Sin hides it and unbelief hides it; bui the Father lets His love shine all day. If any work is really God's giving, and He put it either into our hearts to deviee, of into the power ofour hands to do, no fear but He will also provide stuffsufficient, whether metal or mental. There is a wondrous charm in a gental spirit. The gentle girl in a home may not be beautiful, may not be well educated, may not be musical or an artist or "clever" in any way, but wherever she moves she leaves a benediction. No one can tell the unending power for good which each of us may have in our homes, our fellow men, by faith in them?how far we can strengthen their feeble desire for God and all good. .

John 15:5 In the valiant suffering for others, not in a slothful making others sutler for us, did noble ever lie. Every uoble crown is, and on earth ever will be, a ; crown of thorns. The good news that you are called J upon to consider this morning is that ; you are still alive, with opportunities , to do much to make glad the hearts of your relatives, friends and neighbors.

"Set it down to thyself, as well to create good precedents as to follow them." A RETIRED BURGLAR. HE TELLS OF A CURIOUS INCIDENT IN HIS CAREER. A NiRht'a "Work That Involved o. Di*ncreenhle Surprise*, a Cool JlrailMl Man and a Safe That Had to Be Opened Before Morninir. "In the course of my time," said the retired burglar, "I have opened a considerable; number of iron boxes of one sorb and another, but never one under more peculiar circumstances than this one, in a house in a small town in this state. This safe stood in the dining room against the wall on one side. My light fell on it when I opened the door of the room to look in. it was a OIK, ()ul lllsiuumju HiBU, jjihiu hholy here to contain documents and mortgages and one thing and another like that than money. But a safe is always a pleasant thing to look at. It makes you think of money anyway. And so I was glad to see this safe, and, of course, I hoped I'd find a lot of stuff in it too. Then I started to swing my lamp around to take a glance at the rest of the room before walking in, but I hadn't more'n begun to move it before I brought into the light a pair of shoes with the heels on tho floor and the soles up at an angle of about 45 degrees, toes toward the safe. There wcro feet in those shoes, of course, and tho legs went up from the othei' side at an angle of 45 degrees to what I didn't nocd to look to seo was a man sitting there in a chair in front of the safe asleep. "Well, now, you know, that was unexpected, and while a man in my business must expect unexpected things and bo ready for 'em and not bo surprised or startled this was really so very unusual that I will admit I was just a little bit startled by it, and my hand must have shaken a little, and while under most circumstances that wouldn't have made the slightest difference i* the world hero it marlo nil f.Vin rtitffY>rr>nf?r? frvr tVin hnnd flint. shook was the ono holding the lamp, which was at that moment close to the jamb of the door. I * nocked tho lamp against it?just a little bit of a tick, but enough to wake up tho sleeper. I could see his feet draw up toward tho chair. " Then I wanted to get out myself, and I Btarted along tho hall I was in toward the cellar door I'd oome in at, but I hadn't taken two steps before I heard a man say: " 'Hold on there?wait! Comeback!' "And I went back. It was a command, but it was an invitation, too, and I was ready to meet it or to chance it, and I went back to the dining room and looked in and saw a man lighting tho gas; he'd been having for a light before a kerosene lamp that I saw now standing on the tablo with the oil burned, out. Tho man turned and says to me: "'Come in.' "Ho wasn't quite so tall as I was, but he was a pretty solid sort of a citizen, who could have held his own with me in a square rough and tumble easy, and he was a man who was accustomed to bossing fViir>r*e onrl liornif* fnll*c rlr\ trlinf. Vin cnirl I couldn't tell for tho life of mo what ho was, what his business was, but I guess ho was just simply the richest man in the town and spent his timo looking after his property. And when I'd come in"he says: " '"What's your business, my friend?' "And I said I was a traveling blacksmith. " 'H'm!' he says. 'You do most of your work nights?' "And I said yes, I did do more or less night work. " 'And I imagine you've got a handy kit of tools right in that bag there now,' he says, pointing to my bag, that I had set down alongside of the chair I was sitting in. "And I said yes, I had tools there for any ordinary work. " 'You see that safe?' the man 6ays, pointing toward the safe he'd been sitting in front of when I first looked in, and I looked, at It and saw the big, old fashioned safe, looking very imposing and strong, but a safe that a man that knew how could cut into about as easy as ho could a cheese, and I said yes, I did. "'Well,'says the man,'I want to get into that safe. There's some papers in there that J've got to have in court tomorrow morning, or this morning rather, at So-and-so at 10 o'clock. And I've broken tho key, and I've been trying here for half the nignt to oreaic tne saie open, uo you suppose you could open it?' . "Well, I had to kind of cough to conceal my emotion, because I could have opened the old box, you know, in ten minutes, but I said yes, I could open it, I thought. " 'Well, now,' says the man, 'you pitch in and open it,' and he sat down in a chair there near the safe and got ready to see me work. And I put my bag up on the table and got out my tools and went at it, with the owner looking on and greatly interested. "In about three-quarters of an hour I had the door of the safe off and laid on its back on the floor. " 'You certainly are a handy man with tools, eh?' says the man, and then he asked mo to look through the safe and seo that there was no money in it, which was quite right. There wasn't any. 'You'd have got nothing,' says the man. 'But you've saved me a lot of bother and trouble,' he says, 'getting those papers for me In time, and I want to pay you for it. How much do you think I ought to give you?' "And I said I'd leave that to him. " 'How much do you make a day?' he Bays. "And I told him my earnings varied; that sometimes I made nothing and some times I made a good deal, but I thought I didn't averago more than $20 a day. He seemed to have his own ideas about that, too, but he handed me over a $20 note and said the work was worth it to him. "And then ho escorted me to the door. And he didn't ask me not to come back nor threaten nor warn nor anything. He knew that my knowledge of his habits about money insured him from any further visits from me, as far as that was concerned, and he wasted no words over tt. He just let me out the door and didn't Bven say good night. "Curious things happen in my business! Yes, they do, sure; no doubt about it. A man may go for days and weeks and nothing whatever happen; everybody sound asleep and you just walk in and walk out, and that's all there is to it, but when anything does happen it's more'n likely to bo something out of the usual course. ?New York Sun.

A commanding love has made a homely face beautiful with aspiration and self-sacrifice. What may we expect when the spirit of God, without measure, breaks through a physical nature molded to the perfection of grace and harmony? When I found that it was Christ's nature to lift men out-of weakness to strength, out of impurity to goodness, out of everything low and debasing to superiority, I felt that I had found a God. He who seeks happiness for his own sake shall lose it, and he who loses happiness for another's sake shall find it, even in the hour when he thinks it is gone from him forever, and is content to have it so.
