:. howT womTnidentified.
A few days ago a man called at a bouse
on Fort street, east, and asked for a bite to
eat. He was refused, and shortly after he
left a cloak was missing from the hall-tree.
Tlje police were notified, and the other day,
when, they arrested a man on suspicion,
they sent for the woman to come down to
the City H&H and identify him. When she
was asked if she was certain that she could
identify the man who had called, she somewhat
indignantly replied: "Identify him!
Why, i could pick him out among ten thousand
!?
She was then confronted with the prisoner.
She gave him a good looking over
and called out:
"Oh! you can't fool me! You've had
your hair dyed from black to red since you
asked for cold pancakes, but I'd know you
if i saw you in Texas!"
?* ? - ' 1 -1 1 Un

heard of black hair being dyed red, and
after a brief examination he asserted that
the prisoner's hair had not been dyed at
all.'
"Well, I may possibly be mistaken about
his hair," said the woman, "but I'll swear
to that overcoat. I took a <*ood look at it
as he went off the steps, and I know it's the
coat and the man. Tparticularly noticed
that the third button from the top was
missing."
The captain informed her that it was an
overcoat ne had borrowed within the hour
and asked the prisoner to slip it on. The
woman wouldn't give in for some time,
but finally said:
"Well, J.might have been mistaken, but
I looked square into his eyes, and I know
this is the man."

"Blue eir, light blue."
"But this man's eyes are black?coal

So they were. The woman was dumb
with astonishment for a time, but finally
rallied and said:
"Didn't this man wear a slouch hat when
arrested?"
"No ma'am?he wore a cap."
"And don't you think he is the man?"
"I don't think anything about it, as I
never saw him until an hour ago."
"Is it postively necessary' that I identify
him as tne man?"
"No, ma'am."
"Then I guess I won't. The fact is, I was
a little flurried that morning, and I don't
think I got a fair sight of the fellow. Besides
that, I think the cloak was stolen the
day before I missed it, by an old woman
who was setting notions."?Free Press.
A "Reb's" Curiosity.?'This instance of
overpowering curiosity comes to us fVom
Virginia:
Tne Valley of Virginia during the late
war was tne theatre of many scenes of
bravery that would add lustre to the annals
of any land. Here Ashby the brave,
Mosby the daring, and Jackson the soldier
made for themselves names that can never
be forgotteh. Here, too, the "Boys in .
Blue" many times showed their devotion to
the country they loved so well, and the
Union of their fathers. In the midst of
this lovely valley, on a branch of the
Shenandoah River, one evening in midsummer,
occurred the following: A halfdozen
"rebs" were lounging on the south
bank of the river, when there approached
the opposite bank a company of "bluecoats,"
ten to one of their own number.
Of course it would have been madness to
stand" battle, so the order was given to retire.
But one of the "rebs;" a reckless
dare-devil, brought his musket to his shoulder,
fired, and "brought down his man."

ming across to the opposite bank, which
by this time was lined with "the enemy,"
and was only prevented from doing so by
the positive'command of his officer. On
being asked why he attempted to cross
in the face of certain death, he replied, "I
wanted to see where I hit him."?Editor's
Drawer, Harper's Magazine.
A Wake Man Bi*ys a Piano.?Russ,
a Raleigh drummer, next to Carroll in
elephantine proportions, and equaled only
by Hoke in relating a good story, tells the
following about a man of his own county
who bought a piano and sent it home from
Raleigh. He was absent from home as a
delegate to the National convention in Baltimore.
On his return he stopped in Raleigh
and bought a piano for his daughter,
who was then about to graduate. The instrument
was packed^ind sent out in a wagou.
The two boys were at home and when
thev saw the huge box in the wagon their
hearts ftiiled them. They knew at once the
"old man was dead." They had urged him
with tears streaming down their cheeks not
to attend the convention, believing that he
would never return alive. Now their most
dreaded fears were realized. With heavy
hearts they assisted in unloading the wagon.
A grave was then dug and th'1 'old man"
tenderly laid away to his long and peaceful
rest. Several hours later, while the boys
were looking for the old man's will, he turned
up at the front gate. They swore at first
that it was a ghost, but their doubts were
easily removed when the "old man" hollered
out "boys where's thatd d peeaner?"
Topnoody.?Mr. Topnoody walked into
the kitchen the other night, when he came
home, and at once angrily said to his wife:
"My dear, did you tell Mr. Brown that
the greater part of our family attended one
of those detestable donation parties?"
"I Certainly did," she replied.
"What did you do that for? You know
you were the only one there from this house,
and I think: you might have some regard
for the truth, if you haven't any for me."
"Don't tell me I lie, Topnoody."
"But, my dear, I?"
"Shut up! I said the greater part of this
family was there, and I mean just what I
said. I was there, and if I ain't the greater
part of this family, then this house is for
sale, and I am ready to lie down beneath
the waving daisies."
"Oh!" stammered Mr, Tofmoody, and he

.. A Loss to Anderson.?The Committee
on Subordinate Lodges reported that the
VNorth Pole Zephyrs," of Anderson, S. C.,
a branch of the Lime-Kiln Club, had forfeited
its charter. The President was in jail
for raooashining, the Secretory had skipped
the country with a bogus wife, and several
of the members had token to the woods to
avoid answering the legal inquiry : "What
became of Col. Blossom's twenty-four chickens."
The branch had grossly violated all
its privileges, and was a disgrsfce to the parent
stem.
On motion of Mossback Sly, the report of
the committee was adopted and the charter
of the Zephyrs repealed. People in that
section of the South will please take notice
and govern themselves accordingly.?Detroit

Why She Was Not Nonsuited.?A
Dakota schoolmistress sued three young
men for breach of promise. Counsel for one
of defendants moved for a nonsuit on the
ground that she was too promiscuous. The
Court seemed disposed to grant the motion,
whereupon the plaintiff asked :
"Judge, did you ever go duck shooting?"
His Honor's eye lighted up with thepride
of a sportsman as he answered:
"Well, I should say so ; and many's the
time that I have brought down a dozen at a
thftf ?
"i knew it," eagerly added the fair plaintiff,
"that's just the case with me, Judge. A
flock of these fellows besieged rae and I
winged three of them." The motion for a
nonsuit was denied.
A Toast.?"Have yez got any burnt bread
here?" asked an Irishman hurriedly entering
a restaurant.
"What do you want with burnt bread ?" j
rejoined the proprietor.
"Well, yez see, I was invited to attind a

Feeding Cows for Butter.?Mr. Bennett,
proprietor of one of the best dairy
farms in the country gives the following as
his method of feeding cows in milk: "I
will give you my own method of feeding,
and in so;deing-those- dftiryugu^wbo aim
at quantity' WIlLmlizew6 ar6 ^hddting at
differentJstflfc, for with me$ntftttity is
secondary', quality being the great desideratum.
Our finest butter is obtained in early
summer, when the pastures are sending
forth their earlv, sweet, succulent grasses,
and we depend entirely upon them; but
when they begin to fail, about midsummer,
I begin to feed wilted clover and a small
quantity of grain, increasing as the season
advances, unless the pastures are unusually
food. I cut all my grass early, beginning
y the 6th of June and thus trying to secure
an abundance of rowen hay.
When in winter quarters, I be^in feeding
at abont 5:30 iiL.the morning *\?i& bay, a
little whisp at ? tlme'j f)tft' tlofs6 fnWh' but
the cows will eat it up clean. Then after
milking, the grain?from three to six quarts,
according to the cow?consisting of two parts
corn meal and corn cob ground together. After
this more hay, which lasts till 9 a. m.
I begin at 3 p. m. again with a little hay,
followed with the mangles cut fine, a bushel
being divided among three cows; then
more hay, again, which lasts till about 6:30
p. m.
I maintain that if more shorts are fed
than are necessary to counteract the heating
quality and condensed richness of the
corn meal, it.deteriorates the quality of the
butter. - Thiring last March Tsaw thife Illustrated,
being called upon in Boston to examine
some butter from one of the finest
dairies in the State, and which was troubling
the dealer who sold it. He said it was
negatively good; nothing could be said
against, yet little could be said in its favor.
It seemed to lack that fine nutty flavor so
necessary to fresh butter that commands
over 40 cents per pound. I said at once, on
testing it, "too much shorts and not enough
corn meal." He answered, "Just what I
thought, but did not dare to say so until it
was confirmed." In less than ten days the
butter fipm tliat dairy.-.was Improved., ;
Cabbage Cultivation.?Almost every
one knows that cabbages will not grow fast
or head out well unless they are hoed very
often. Many have also learned that this
crop does the best if hoed very early in the
morning while the dew is on the ground.
Hoeing later in the day, while the dew has
evaporated, will not have the same effect.
The reasons appear to be these: The dew
being covered with soil it retains and helps
keep the earth moist. It contains a large
amount of oxygen, which it took from the
air. These act; to decompose thp spil and
to ' hasten ' . $ptfwth of the-' ^droits. It
also absorbs a large quantity* of ammonia,
which is directly taken up by the plants.
Now the same causes ought to produce the
same effects on other plants, and it has been
found by observing farmers that they do.
Market gardeners prefer to have potatoes
hoed either when the soil is wet with dew
or after a slight rain. Observations made
by one of the best farmers in Wisconsin,
extending through many years, convinced
him that there was great advantage in
ploughing land while it was wet with dew.
Especially was this the case when clover or
grass was ^ploughed under. It was found
that the grass and sod rotfethnluefc sohher,
and that the succeeding crops were larger
and of better quality.
Value
of Cotton Stalks.?Thomas J.
Spear, an old citizen of New Orleans,
recently had a communication in the Picayune
of that city setting forth the commercial
value of the cotton stalk for textile
fibre which may be obtained from it. Mr.
S. says: "Twenty years ago I reminded the
cotton planters of Louisiana that the cotton
stalk contained valuble fibre, that it
was a fine material for manufacturing purposes,
but no attention as .it would appear,
was paid to my discovery and information.
I will now remind them again that one
acre of ground will produce on an average,
as is well known, two bales of cotton,
weighing five hundred pounds each, which
when sent to market brings ten cents a
pound, giving for the two bales $100?
whereas the stalk of the plant on the same
acre will yield from one' to onfe and a half
tons of fibre, if properly prepared would be
found to be equally as fine as Manillia, and
worth at any time, at the lowest calculation
from $120 to'$150 per ton."
How to Catch a Horse.?If a horse is
shy and hard to catch, take finely grated
castor oils of rhodium and cummin. Keep
them in separate bottles, well corked. Put
some of the oil of cummin on vour hand
and approach the horse on the \nndy side.
He will then move towtird you. "As soon
vnn can reach him. rub some of the cum
miii on his nose, give him a little of the
castor, or anything he likes, and get a few
drops of the oil of rhodium on his tongue.
After this you can make him do nearly every
thing you want. Treat him kindly,
feed well, handle gently, and victory is certain.?
Turf, Field and Farm.
Cold Water Drinking.?Cold baths of
the skin are good, but it is doubtful if flooding
the stomach on going to bed and on
rising, is not, on the whole the mast profitable
form of cold bathing. Costiveness,
piles and indigestion are uniformly relieved
by this morning and evening cold douche.
The quantity must be determined by each
one for himself. Two or three swallows
will do to begin with, and the quantity will
soon grow to a tumbler full; and we have
known persons to use much more with
marked benefit. If wisely managed every
dyspeptic will be greatly improved by this
cold stomach bath.
Wet Boots.?When bootsare wet through,
do not dry them by the tire. As soon as
they are token off, fill them quite full with
dry oats. This grain will rapidly absorb
every vestige of damp from wet leather.
As it takes up the moisture it swells and
fills the boot like a tightly fitting last, keeping
its form good and drying the leather
without hardening it. In the morning
shake out the oats and hang them in a bag
near the fire to dry, ready for use on another
occasion.
ttajr The Rural Hume says that no one
grass by itself makes the best pasture, but a
combination of varieties. A greater weight
of nutritious pasture can'be grown on a limited
area of land, by sowing several species
from any single variety.. It would seem as
if different species feeding on the same soil
take up various ingredients in different proportions
; hence it is considered expedient
to sow several of i he species adapted to the
particular soil.
Destruction of Ants.?A correspondent
in the Tropical Agriculturalist says:
"Take a white,china plate and spread a
thin covering of common lard over it. Place
it on the floor or shelf infected by the troublesome
insects, and you will be pleased with
the result. Stirring them up every morning
is all that is required to set the trap
again.
' : ; - ? y<t
Disappointed Stomachs.?Regularity
in the hours of meals cannot be too strongly
insisted on. The stomach should not be disappointed
when it expects to be replenished.
If disappointed, even a diminished
amount of food will be taken without appetite,
which causes the secretions to injure
the stomach or else impair its muscular
action.
To Relieve a Cough.?An excellent authority
in medicine recommends a little
common sugar as a remedy for a dry hacking
cough, and gives scientific reasons for it.
If troubled at night or on first waking in. the
morning have a little cup on a stan&close
by the bed, and take half a teaspoonful;
this will be of benefit when cough syrups
fail.
What Willbe To-mobkow??My friend
you will never ask this question when eating
a hearty supper at night. But I will
answer it for you. A genuine case of cramp
colic and other stomachic disorders which
can only be alleviated with Norman's Neutralizing
Cordial. Sold everywhere.?Advt.
Cold Slaw.?Take two thirds of a cup of
vinegar, one egg, two tablespoonfuls of sugar,
one tablespoonful of salt, half teaspoon
of mixed mustard, and butter size of an egg;
stir until it boils. When cold, pour over
the shaved cabbage.

W8OTING T8R HER DAUGHTER.
THE PLUCK AND ENDURANCE OF AN ALABAMA
WOMAN.
A letter, under date of Rockford, Coosa
county, Alabama, June 13th, to the Monlr
gomery Advertiser, gives the particulars ol
a heinous crime in that .State, and the pluck
and endurance of a woman after her husband
had been dastardly murdered by hei
side. The circumstances have been briefly
outlined by telegraph:
The assassin of Mr. Corden was captured
this morning about 4 o'clock, near Razemore's
Crossroads, about fifteen miles north
of this place and about eleven miles from
the scene of the tragedy. He was at the
house of his brother and had retired. H?
made a full confession, and carried the parties
who had him in charge to where lie
had hid the clock, the gun, powder can and
blowing horn. He was carried in the presence
of the wounded wife of Mr. Corden,
and fully identified by her and daughter
and two sons. He also made a full confession,
going into the minutest details. He
was afterwards brought to this place and
lodged in 'jail. It required great exertion

vent him from being lynched, which doubtless
he would have been, had it not been
that the crowd did not have time to collect
and the express promise of some of our citizens
that they would pledge their word that
Judge Cobb would call a special term of our
Circuit Court for the purpose of giving him
a trial. He was subsequently lynched.
The courage and fortitude displayed by
Mrs. Corden on Monday night could not
have been surpassed. Her nearest neighbor
was about a quarter of a mile distant.
After the fatal shot had been fired into the
head of her husband she sent her son to
blow.the horn for help, while she gave her
attention to her dying husband. After her
little boy had been shot down she closed the
door, put out the light, seized the gun and
made effort after effort to fire it, but without
iilthmifrh sbo lififl often fired it
before and says that she is confident that
had it fired she would have killed the assassin.
When she failed to discharge the gun,
and the assassin was battering on the cloor
for admission, she put her other son out the
back> window with instructions to fly for
assistance, and when the fiend was demanding
of her to send her daughter out or lie
would kill the entire family and burn the
house, she assisted that daughter out the
back way and bid 'her fly for safety. And
.while she -was;still refusing the flend admission
and' holdihg the door with all her
strength, he again, and for the third time,
fired nis gun through the window, terribly
wounding her, and again sought admission
and succeeding in forcing the door partially
open, seized her by the arm, dragged her to
the piazza, where a terrible struggle ensued,
which resulted in her throwing him out ol
the house and enabling her to again close
the door. The assassin then demanded ol
her a bed quilt, saying if she would give
him one he would' leave. She gave him
one through a window and he left.
Your correspondent this evening visited
the prisoner in the jail, in company with
the sheriff, when he made the following
statement:
"My name is Jordan Corben. I am 22
years old and was raised in this county. I
have been working this year by the day,
have 110 regular employment. I was at
Spring Hill Church on last Sunday evening;
went from there to my stepmother's; oniy
remained there about a half hour; stayed
in the woods Sundry night; stayed in the
woods, because I had been doing some
meanness. The meanness that I had been
doing was the breaking into the dwelling
house of Mr. Henry Carnard and stealing
a clock, shotgun, powder flask and a blowing
horn; went hunting Monday; wanted
to keep out of the way of folks; went into Mr.
Corden's field Monday evening and tried to
hire to him to cut oats; said he did not want
me as his were not ready to cut. Mr. and
Mrs. Corden, their daughter about grown,
and thqir two sons were in the field; went
from there to Mr. Corden's house; there was
no one present except three small children.
I asked them how many cows they milked
and who milked them ? They told me their
sister milked. I then went round behind
the cowpen and hid; the cowpen is about
seventy-five yards from the house; the sun
was about a quarter of an hour high.' I remained
there until the young lady came and
milked, but a little girl came with her and I
did not say anything to her or let her see
me. I remained there until the family went
to supper. I then went up to the yard fence
and waited until they got through; saw them
go into the house; saw part of the family go
to bed. When I knew they had all gone to
bed I pulled off my shoes and slipped up
to the window. Had my loaded gun with
me all this time; the window is about a foot
square, tried to open it but could not; it
seemed to be buttoned. Tbere was a crack
in the window about as wide as my two
fingers; I could see Mr. and Mrs. Cordon
lying in the bed; their heads were towards
the window; X poked my gun through the
crack and pointed it at the head of Mr. Corden
and fired it. I then ran off about seventy-five
yards and loaded it. There was a
big light in the hall, I heard the young lady
say: ''Somebody has killed pa." I heard
Mrs. Corden say to the little boys, "Run into
the kitchen and get the horn and blow it."
I saw them go and get the horn and one ol
them got on the verandah and commenced
to blow it. I had loaded my gun, and shot
him; think I was about 7o yards from him ;
when I shot he hallowed and ran into the
house. The lights were then putoutand the
door closed. I went up to the house and ordered
them to open the door. I wanted to
get into the house to do meanness. I wanted
to get to the young lady. * * * I told
Mrs. Corden if she did not.send her daughter
out I would kill the whole family and burn
the house ; told her that I had kerosine oil,
but did not have any. Mrs. Corden had
moved a bed against the door, I then went
back to the window ; it was dark in the
house ; I couldn't see anything. I poked
my gun through the crack in the window
and tired in the direction where Mrs. Corden
was'talking. I then went back to the
door and forced it partly open. She was
trying to hold it to. I caught her by the
arm and pulled her out in the entry ; we
had a scuffle. I tried to throw her down,
but she threw me out in the entry, and got
back in the house and fastened the door. 1
then told her if she would give me a bed
quilt I would go away ; she then threw me
one out of the window, and I left. I went
down in the field and got in an old outhouse,
and went to sleep and slept until day.
I have never been to Mr. Corden's house but
once before ; had never seen any of his family
except that one time. Mr. Corden or
any of his family have never done me any
injury."
During the whole time that the prisoner
was making this statement, he was apparently
cool and unconcerned and exhibited
a remarkable memory, and appeared to possess
an intellect above the average of his
race.

amount of sickness and mortality in some ol
the jails of India is stated with good reason,
in official reports to be very deplorable.

the death rate was nearly as high,

cholera. In the jail at Belgium, in the
Bombay Presidency, nearly half the average
strength was swept off in 1878. In 187!)
the rate had diminished, though it still
reached the fearful proportion of 200 per

[Original].
REPENTANCE. ?
1 There ure, perhaps, no two things about Ai
" which people in Christian countries hear
! more than they do about sin and repentance. <
It would be, perhaps, safe to say that there tic
I are no two things about which people have
more confused ideas than they nave about SP
sin and repentance. The latter always pre- \
! supposes the existenceof the former. Where ^
there is no sin there can be no repentance. wj
In order that we may have clear and correct th
ideas of repentance, we must first obtain a j
| clear and correct knowledge of sin. This to
' knowledge of sin must not simply be theo- th
! retical, it must also be experimental. saj
In its proper sense, sin is violation of law. t.g
; Every violation of the moral law is sin, and all
1 all sin is violation of the moral law. lie- ]
pentance includes three things?a Scriptural na
; knowledge of sin, a holy sorrow on account oil
of sin, and an actual turning away from sin. il"
The knowledge of sin is derived from two ^
sources. Our moral instincts teach us that r j
1 we are sinners. The knowledge derived 0f
from this source is very defective in many co
respects. This arises from the destructive \vi
effect which sin has had upon our moral 11a- th(
tures. The understanding is darkened, the H0:
' sensibilities are'deadened and the will is ^
' perverted. We at present are only the tf)(
' wreck of what we once were?only the de- 1
caving ruins of a once grand building. The <lr
other source from which Ave obtain a knowledge
of sin is the Bible. The information V1'
derived from this source concerning sin is 171 (
' minute, specific and full. Man is every- ou
where in the Bible described as a sinner, Wc
and sin is described as that thing Avhicli 3
1 God hates. foi
' Repentance is properly a turning from sin in
| unto God. It may be regarded as a gift of ?
' God and also as an exercise of the human
( soul. God, in the operations of his marvel
ous grace, bestows the power to turn away
from sin unto him, and the individual upon
! whom this power is bestowed exercises it.
' God, by his Holy Spirit, changes the sinner's
heart; and the sinner whose heart is
; changed turns to God. ?
Thisturningof the sinner from his sins to j10
; God always consists of two things?a sense ho
of the moral filth and hatefulness of his sins <la
and a knowledge and acceptance of the mer- ca
1 cy which is offered to penitent sinners by r0:
God, through Jesus Christ, in the gospel. ^
The differences between repentance and ba
reformation are many and great. Inrepen- ()f
tance the sinner turns from sin unto the ser- Pc
vice of God; in reformation the sinner only gi]
; ceases to practice sin in its enormities. In
repentance the sinner hates sin, but in refor- '1
; mation he still continues to love sin ardeut- b?e
ly, although he may not practice it so noto- se
riously as formerly. In repentance, the sin- ki
ner forsakes sin because it is hateful to God tw
as well as ruinous to himself; in reformation W
the sinner desists from sinning, only because *
he sees sin will soon be his ruin. In repen- ^
tance, the heart as well as the feet turns away fu
from sin, while in reformation it is only the wj
feet that turn away. Repentance is all of
reformation and a great deal more. There *
; certainly is sucn a tnmg as reiormauon wunout
repentance; but genuine heart renen- g
, tance is always accompanied with a thor'
ough reformation of the life. Reformation ni
so much resembles repentance, that we are
: constantly liable to mistake it for repent- R<
' ance. The force of circumstances often com- ?1]
Sel men to reform. They cease to sin, but
ley do not learn to do well.
Although sorrow for sin is one of the elements
of repentance we are not to conclude ?
that all sorrow for sin is a certain evidence
of true repentance. No man was ever more
, intensely sorry for his sin than was Judas
Iscariot, yet he went out and hanged himself.
Usually, men are deeply mortified
when they learn that their crimes are made
public. It is not their sin that causes their
sorrow. About this they care nothing.
' The thing which grieves them so is the fact
that their sins have been made public, and
they have thereby been degraded in the eyes
' of their fellow men. It is men, not God,
' that they fear.
AM I A CHRISTIAN ?
This vital question is anxiously asked by
: many, and various are the grounds on which
it. is suggested. On account of their aftlic
tions some have painful doubts and fears in
regard to this cardinal matter. The inqui- .
ry arises in their ininds, how can a gracious
God love those whom he so greatly distress;
es ? It seems to them that they would not
[ afflict their children as God afflicts them,
1 and hence they are led to fear that they are
not the children of God.
In all such disheartening apprehensions,
1 however, there is a strange forgetfulness of
1 what the Scriptures teach upon this very
point. To all such victims of gloomy, if not
agonising, doubts and fears, the word of th(f
Lord is uttered saying, "Ye have forgotten _!
the exhortation which speaketh unto you as
unto children: 'My son, despise not thou T
the chasfcming of the Lord, nor faint when L
thou art rebuked of him ; for whom the Lord
loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every
son whom he receiveth.'" Troubles are
not always witnesses against us, to vitiate
our hope of heaven. Often are they rather
manifestations of divine kindness and love.
What is said to Job may be accepted by us,
as though we were addressed in the words
of Elipha/., "Behold, happy is the man ?
whom God correcteth ; therefore despise not
thou the chastening of the Almighty." go
Though being in adversity may not be a
sure sign of being in a gracious state, yet it
' may be regarded as an evidence that those
thus called to suffer are not spiritually abait- "a
| cloned, or consigned to utter hopelessness. ^
Such suffering may be no more a mark of p'u
condemnation than the pruniug-knife is an
; indication that the tree must fall. The refiner
does not heat his furnace for the metal
which he knows to be worthless. It is not
common for a person to watch over and correct,
year after year, a stranger's child.
| Such attentions are ordinarily confined to <
the person's own child, or to an adopted an
child. They tell of parental love which can
cause grief in order to bless or save. _
We may hear an Apostle saying "If ye
; endure chastening, God dealeth with you as
| with sons; for what son is he whom the
father chasteneth not ?'' Some one has said,
"Lawns, which we would keep in the best
condition, are very frequently mown ; the
' grass has scarcely any respite from the ti
scythe. Out in the meadows there is no tin
such repeated cutting; they are mown hut wi
mipp or hvicn a vear. Even thus the nearer
' we are to God, and the more regard lie has ""
for us, the more frequent may he our adver- h'
sities. To be very near to God involves no ti
' small degree of chastisement."?Watchman, an
By Tiikik Right Names.?The Bible is 3
one book that holds on to the old-fashioned !,
, way of calling things by their right names. '
It never minces matters to keep from hurt- jh>
itig somebody's feelings. If a man appro- j
priates to himself money that belongs to pr
| another, the Bible speaks out in plain lan- pe
' guage and says he is a robber. In this age ^
of the world there has been so much rob- A'
bery by men in high position that public ?01
' sentiment has grown accustomed to it. The bit
public conscience, instead of feeling shocked, or.and
thundering its anathemas against it,
seeks to palliate it by inventing a softer
nomenclature. When the cashier of a bank
finds himself short in his accounts, instead
U* im-no+i '/i rilr I, 5 tvi O^ll ilWnrtl 1 lltr tn
' the Bible way, this age speaks of him as an x
unfortunate speculator. When a public of- JL
ficer uses the money of the State to deal in
"futures," this age calls it embezzlement; ser
the Bible would call it robbery. It is a [JH
great pity the old prophets did not under- (iil
stand the usus loquendi of this nineteenth tlw
century.?Texas Christian Advocate. 1
-? ? soi
Dying Grace.?Many people worry be- "is
cause they do not have dying grace. They T(l
read of saints who have met death without r
fear, even with emotions of ecstacy and tri- to
umph. At once they begin to torture them- ?
selves with the question, "Could I meet B;i
death in this way?" and the answer they get hn;
from their trembling hearts is that they *
could not. Death still has terrors for them.
They are not willing yet to die. Then the wc
next question is, "If I were a true Christian j
would 1 thus fear to die? "Would I not re- Po
joice at the thought of leaving this world est:
and going to my Saviour?" The answer is
God does not promise dying grace when one's
duty is to live. He gives the living grace
for living?grace for temptation, for battle, ^
for duty. And when the hour of death |J
comes he gives dying grace.?S. S. Times.
