Mr. Yager and the Map Man.?A
ring of the door bell brought Herr Hans
Yager to his front door, where the following
conversation took place: ' |
"Good morning, sir. I've got a very nice
map of Kentuckv here I'd like you to look
at.
"Vhell, I look at him."
"I had better go in the house and show
it you."
"I tink you outside petter sthay; you got
, more room dere."
"Well, now, you see on this side is a map
of Kentucky, while on this side (turning it
around to him,) is a map of the United
States."
"Och, I don'd puy me no such map like
dose."
"Why ? What's your objection to it ?"
"Vhy, it don'd vhas gorrect."
"And why isn't it correct ?"
"Don'd you got some sense? Don't you

Schtates, und not on de odder side of it?

"Oh, sir, but you have a wrong idea of
the map. It contains the United States on
this side with Kentucky in them."
"Veil, den; how Genducky him get on

He Was a Square Max.?Judge 1). has
a sou who is rather wild, and he is in the
employ of Moses, a Hebrew banker. One
day the latter called upon the Judge, and
after a few casual remarks, thus broke the
ice: "Shudge, I vas a scquare man, but
I have missed feefty tollar, und I dink your
son Fred hafdakenit." "Well, Moses," replied
the Judge, "I know that Fred has
been pretty wild, and I'm not greatly surprised.
I suppose he got into debt and borrowed
of you to get out of it. I don't see
what I can do, though; the milk is spilled,
and I can't pick it up." "Shudge, I vas
a scquare man," said Moses, "and I dell
you vot I do. You pay me tree hundred
tollars und I say nodings." The Judge
reflected a moment, and then, without furt.hpr
nurlpv rirow a. oheok for the amount
and handed it over to the Jew. No sooner
had he done so than a new idea flashed
upon him, and he said to Moses: Hold on,
Moses; suppose it turns out that my son
didn't take the money." "Veil, Shudge, I
vas a scnuare man," replied Moses, putting
the check in his pocket, "und I tell you vot
I'll do. Eef it durns oud that your son
didn't take dot moneys, I'll give him anod<ter
shance."?New Orleans Democrat.
So you love my daughter, you say?"
said Paterfamilias to the young man, "and
want to marry her ?" What is your occupation?"
"I'm a tutor," was the reply.
"Ah ! that's very respectable; very respectable,
indeed. Teach the classics?"
"N-n-not exactly," said the youth; "I'm
a musical tutor."
"A musical-tutor! Well, that is sufficiciently
respectable. You can continue your
visits if my daughter is willing."
Two weeks later the young couple were
married, aud the confiding father discover
ed that his son-in-law was no more than
a member of an insignificant orchestra with
a salary of twelve dollars a week.
"Why, confound you," he said, wrathfully,
"didn't you tell me that you were a
tutor?"
"So I am a 'tooter,' replied the youth;
"I play the French horn, and you should
just hear me tooting."
The old gentleman concluded to make
the best of it.
The Lime-Kiln Club.?Judge Cadaver
was asked what influence women had on
business, and he drew a long breath and reElied
that if it wasn't for the female sex the
usiness of the world would drop one-half;
. one dry-goods store in a city could supply
all the men, but the women supported two
or three hundred of them. Women not
only maintained business, but established
new manufactures. For instance, the decoration
of female hosiery gave employment
to 6,000 persons the year round. It was all
out of sight and utterly useless, but it circulated
millions of dollars. Pads, bustles,
paints, cosmetics and false hair were of no
real service, convenience or ornament, and
yet $50,000,000 and the labor of 200,000 people
were the annual results. Woman was
straight business. When a wife whose husband
earns only $25 per week can keep a
carriage, wear $100 bracelets and put on a
$250 sealskin sacque, the man who contended
that the female sex had no financial abilities
had better hang up. .

He Got Them.?Master Fred Fenton fell
from the topmost limb of an apple tree. He
was picked up and carried to the house in
an insensible condition.

ninny weary hours, his mother perceived
signs of returning consciousness.
Leaning over him she asked him if there
was anything shecould do for him, now that
he was beginning to feel better.
Should she bathe his forehead? Should
she fan him or change his pillow? Was
there anything he wanted?
Languidly opening his eyes and looking
at her, the little sufferer said :
. "Yes, mamma, I want a pair of pants
with a pocket behind!"
He got them.
All the Glory he Wanted.?It was
during the late war. We were preparing
for a cnarge 011 Mulligan's works at Lexington,
when Vest of Missouri, the present
United States Senator, came up and asked
permission to participate as a volunteer.
His request was granted, and being furnished
with weapons and a horse, he dashed
boldly into the fray. The attacking party
was driven back, and in a few minutes Vest
rode up to where General Price and staff
were standing, turned over horse and weapons
to an orderly, and with an impressiveness
all his own declared that "The man
who says George Vest has never been in
a battle is a liar, and the man who says
that George Vest will ever he found in another
is a fool."
Married Two Women.?"Did you hear
of that man who married two women in
one day ?" asked Fogg at the tea table the
other evening. "Isn't it awful 7" exclaimed
the landlady. "Do tell us all about it,
Mr. Fogg." "Oh, there isn't much to tell."
replied Fogg; "you know him well. "I
know him! tlie villain!" shrieked the land-!
lady. "Don't say that ma'am," said Fogg, j
soothingly; "don't say that. It was the
Rev. Mr. Textual, your beloved pastor, and ;
he wouldn't like to hear you talk so about!
him. And, by the by, he married the wo-!
men to as two likely young fellows as there j
are in town." The landlady says she never J
could bear that Fogg.?lioston Transcript.
A Misapprehension of Facts.?A London
organ-grinder escaped a fine by a very
ingenious excuse. He had been playing
before the house of an irascible old gentleman
who furiously, and with wild gesticulations,
ordered him to "move on." The organgrinder
stolidly ground on and was arrested
for his disturbance. At the trial the Judge
asked him why he did not leave when re-:
quested. "No spik Inglese," was the reply.
"Well," said the Judge, "but you j
must have understood his gestures, his j
motion." "I tinkeehe come to dance," was I
the rejoinder, that caused the Judge to
laugh heartily and let the musician go.
B?g-"WelI, my child," said a father to his
little daughter* after she had been to church,
"what do you remember of all the preacher
said?" "Nothing," was the timid reply.
"Nothing!" he exclaimed, in a severe tone. |
"Now, remember, the next time you must |
tell me something of what he says, or you i
will have to be punished." Next Sunday
the child camehome with her eyes all wild i
with excitement. "I remember something
to-day, papa," she cried eagerly. "I am
very glad of it," said her father. "What
did he say?" "He said,'A collection will

(*OD'S WORKS. .
David, in the eighth Psalm, when con tern
plating the glory of God as manifested ii
his works, says: "When I consider th;
heavens, the work of thy fingers, the mooi
and the stars which thou hast ordained
what is man that thou art mindful of him
and the son of man, that thou visiteth him
No matter how great the knowledge of th
Psalmist of astronomy may have been, th
discoveries which have been made in tha
science since his day, have not, in the least
detracted from the source of his wonder an<
admiration. Few of us know anything o
the wonderful things which are constantl;
taking place all around us, and the few wh)
know anything of them are too stupid to b
moved by them, as the Jr'saimist was, i*
adore and magnify him who made and con
trols all things.
The contemplation of the works of Go<
is eminently calculated to beget within u
intense humility. "What is man?" we ar
forced to ask when we look up into th
heavens, the work of God's fingers. Th
earth on which we live and which support
us with its generous productions, and ii
whose bosom we will all find a resting place
affords a wonderful display of power, wis
dom and goodness. The equatorial diarne
ter of the earth is7^9251 miles. This multi
plied by three and one-seventh gives 24,70
miles as the circumference of the earth
This distance the earth travels every twen
ty-four hours. To do this, it moves at thi
rate of more than one thousand miles ever
hour. This is a speed which seems incredi
ble, but is nothing when compared with th?
rate at which the earth travels in its annua
circuit around the sun. Each year of threi
hundred and sixty-five and one-fourth day
the earth travels six hundred million miles
To accomplish this it has to travel mor
than eighteen miles every second. This i
so near infinity that the human mind cai
epnrpplvr pnmnrphpnd it. Xotwithstandini
this rapid daily motion of the earth on it
own axis, and still more rapid motion roun<
the sun, there is no confusion, no collision
no noise. The rolling of a child's carriag
along the pavement makes more noise thai
the whole machinery of the universe.
A correct knowledge of God, as he ha
manifested himself in his works, is necessa
ry tothe highest order of devotional feeling
The ignorant may be superstitious; the wis
can only be truly devout. God says, in hi
word, "My people perish for lack of know)
edge." God has manifested himself in eve
rything around us. Marvelous are all lii
works. To be filled with wonder and aston
ishment, we have only to lay our hand upoi
our breast and feel the constant and regula
motion which is going on there. Day am
night it continues. In the unconscious hour
of sleep and whileengaged in ordinary busi
ness of life it continues faithful. "I an
fearfully and wonderfully made," said th
devout'Psalmist.
[Original.J
THE MISSION OF JESUS.
It is agreed that the immediate end fo
which Jesus Christ came into the world wa
to save sinners. This is so plainly, and s<
often taught in the Scriptures, that no on
will deny it. Was, however, the saivatioi
of sinners the only design he had in view ii
coming into our world? Was it the prima
ry object he had in view? The answe
which will be returned to these importan
questions by the multitude is, that to sav<
sinners and nothing else, Jesus lived, suf
fered and died.
A moment's serious reflection will con
vince any one that while the immediate
end of Christ's mediatorial work was thi
salvation of sinners, this was neither the
primary nor ultimate design of his under
taking the office of a'mediator. In think
ing and speaking about the' mediatoria
work of Jesus Christ, we think and speal
about it as if man was the only being in tin
universe for which God manifests any con
cern. We do the same thing in speaking
about the works of God. In our folly, w<
are apt to conclude that for man, and fo
nothing else. God made everything. Thi:
is marvelous ignorance combined with im
pious arrogance. Has the sun no other mis
sion to execute than to pour down a flood o
light upon a human family ? Has the Nortl
star, whose distance from the earth is s<
great that it cannot be measured, no othei
office tc perform than to hang continually
in the same place for man's good ? Does tin
spider spin its web and the sparrow build it,1
nest only for man's good ? Certain it ii
that all the works oi God, including crea
tion, providence and redemption, are linkec
together so as to form one stupendous whole
and it is also certain that man is but a part
and a very small part, of that whole.
In the economy of God, man, we lean
from the Scriptures, was "made a little low
er than angels," or, according to the He
brew, "a little lower than God." He wai
crowned with dignity and honor, in that h<
was given dominion over the other crea
tures connected with the earth on which h<
was to dwell. This is far from saying tha
"all sheep and oxen, and the beasts of thi
field, and fowls of the air, and fish of tin
sea," were made only for man. The posi
tion which God assigned man was that of i
superintendent or overseer. This, officially
elevated him to a position a little lowe
than God, in the management of the affair
of this world. Man's superintendency ex
tended no further than the earth which h<
inhabited. He wa. given no control ove
the sun, or the moon, or the stars.
It would be fair to infer that instead o
the earth and all that it contains, bein^
made only for man, man was made for tin
same primary and ultimate end for whicl
the earth, the air, the sea and their inhab
itants were created.
From the general scope of the Scriptures
we are warranted in concluding the end o
design which God had in view in creatinj
all things, was the same end or design whicl
he had in view in sending his son Jesu
Christ into the world to save sinners. I
we knew certainly, the intent and purposi
of God in creating all things, we woult
know certainly his purpose in redemption
Sin, however, has so blinded our minds tha
we are unable to come to a certain conclu
sion as to what was God's design in bring
ing into existence the stupendous fabric o
the universe. If unaided intellect is left t<
make the discovery, the conclusion must bi
that much that God made is useless. Fron
the Scriptures we learn what was God's pur
pose in sending his son into the world. Tin
immediate end was to save sinners. This
however, was only a means designed to ef
a - -! 1 1 12 1 J-i. A
ieei ine primary enu uuu mini lutein.
Never could the unaided human mint
discover what God ultimately designed t<
accomplish by saving sinners through Jesu
Christ. Without the revelation which i:
made to us in the Scriptures, the conclusioi
to which we would, in all probability come
is that God saves sinners for no other pur
pose than that they might be happy. Thi
would be to conclude that God exercised hi
power and his wisdom in creating, preserv
ing, and redeeming man only for man'
happiness. This would be tantamount t<
saying that God exists for man, and wouh
make man of more importance than Go<
himself.
The object which God had in view ii
sending Jesus Christ into the world to savi
sinners, is plainly and forcibly stated b;
Paul in the following words. It was. h
says, "to make all see what was the fellow
ship (rather economy) of the mystery whicl
from the beginning of the world hath beei
hid in God, who created all things, to th
intent that now unto the principalities am
powers in heavenly places might be knowi
by the church, the manifold wisdom of God
according to the eternal purpose which h
purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord." Ephc
sians, 3:9, 10 and 11.
From this Scripture we learn that th
purpose of God to save sinners through Jc
sus Christ, was an eternal purpose. It wa
not an after thought of God?not an expc
dient to meet an unforeseen emergency, bu
an eternal purpose. In fact, the apostl
plainly teaches that creation was in order t
redemption, lie says that God created a 1
things to tlTb intent that the manifold wis
dora of God might be known by the Church
according to his eternal purpose.
We often think and speak of creation
providence and redemption as three sepa
rate and distinct things. In fact, they ar
only different aspects of the same tiling
The purpose of God to create, preserve am
redeem, is one and the same purpose. God
? has but one purpose, and that embraces all
_ things. The result of this purpose, which
- the apostle says is eternal, is creation, providence
and redemption, and these are for
' his own glory. The full extent of the glory
: l of God, as secured by the scheme of redempi
tion, can only be partly discovered in this
world. This is reserved for another state of
!- existence in another world. Now, the
11 apostle says, it is made known unto princiy
palities and powers in heavenly places,
ii through the Church.

hereditary in my family I have suffered with it for
many years, and have tried a great many physicians
and all sorts of treatment, but to no purpose, and

DR. J. BRADFORD'!
FEMALE REGULATOR
This famous remedy most happily meets the de
maud of the age for woman's peculiar and multiform
afflictions. It is a remedy for WOMAN ONLY, and
I forONE SPECIAL CLASS of her diseases. It is a
specific for certain diseased conditions of the womb,
and proposes to so control the Menstrual Function
aa to regulate all the derangements and irregularities
of Woman's
MONTHLY SICKNESS.
Its proprietor claims for it no other medical property,
and to donbt the fact that this medicine does positively
possess such controlling and regulating powers
is simply to discredit the voluntary testimony of
thousands of living witnesses who are to-day exulting
in their restoration to sound health and happiness.
gSADFIELD'S pEMALE pEQULATOB
is strictly a vegetable compound, and Is the product
of medical science and practical experience directed
towards the benefit of
SUFFERING WOMAN !
It is the studied prescription of a learned physician
I whose specialty was WOMAN, and whose fame became
enviable and boundless because of his wonderful
success in the treatment and cure of female comnlslnts.
THE REGULATOR is the GRANDEST
i REMEDY known, and richly deserves its name:
WOMAN'S BEST FRIEND,
Because it coutrols a class of functions the various
derangements of which cause more ill health than
all other causes combined, and thus rescues her from
a long train of afflictions which sorely embitter her
life, and prematurely end her existence.
Ohl what a multitude of living witnesses can testify
to its charming effects.
WOMAN1 take to your confidence this
PRECIOUS BOON OP HEALTH!
I It will relieve you of nearly all the complaints peculiar
to your sex! Rely upon it as your safeguard for
health, happiness and long lift.
