His Last Case.?"Doctor, I have one
more case to try before I am done with this
world," said a dying lawyer who had al- z
ways been a great wag.
The doctor shook his head.
"Don't say no, Doctor," said the dying
man, earnestly; "I tell you it is imperative."
"I wi9h it were possible," said tne Doctor, a
but I am afraid it cannot be. This I will t
do, however,?I will promise to employ for a
you the ablest council, and see that your s
clients' interests are not prejudiced in the _
slightest." r
"But my clients have nothing to do with ()
it, Doctor; this is a private matter, a case of v
my own. Do you think you can get the g
services of j'idge Blank?" naming nis bit- t
est enemy. r
"Do you really want him?" asked the v
Doctor in some surprise. : r

quest of a dying man. And now tell me of f|

Health Hints.?The best way to deal ^
with a cold is to avoid it. ?
Never prick a blister with a pin. It rusts
the pin. ?
Vinegar and red pepper will make a well P
throat sore and a sore one well. P
Corns can be cured by refraining from P
wearing shoes three sizes too small. 5
The tendency to sleep too soundly can be P
overcome by having not soda biscuits for ?
supper.
A little arsenic carefully used will in *
time entirely clear the neighborhood of rats, ^
mice and amateur flute players. r
Never wash iik warm water before going | J
out in the cold air. It takes all the curt on i ~
and leaves the skin exposed to the cold. :
Nothing is more dangerous than to walk 1!
about with bare feet in the morning. If 0
there are tires to be started let your wife 11
attend to them. ?
Coarse brown paper soaked in vinegar
and placed on the forehead is good for a 11
sick headache. See that there is a supply J]
of brown paper and vinegar in the house 1
before goingto the lodge on initiation night. N
How
a Professor Retained an Audi- :
ence.?An amusing story reaches us from
Munich. During the past year the Profes- L
sor of -Ethetics in the University, whose s
lectures are proverbially wearisome, deliv- 1
ered his lecture (as usual) to a somewhat
exiguous audience. There were five students
in all, who week by week melted and
grew "beautifully less," until at last but
one was left. This solitary individual, *j
however, seemed to concentrate in his own J
person, all the diligence, application and 1
punctuality of the frivolous lellows. At the r
COIlCtUSlon oi ine iusi itxiuic <ji uic v-uuim..
the Professor approached him and praised
him for these admirable qualities, and pro- $
ceeded to inquire of him : 44 What is your ?
name, my young friend?" Xo answer, t
44What country are you from ?" Absolute <.
silence. The matter was soon elucidated, t
for it was discovered that the patient, per- a
severing disciple was a poor deaf-mute, who t
had taken refuge from the severe cold of rj
winter in the warm lecture-room of the (
University. t
A Hard Wind.?Old Pet<?r H lived t
in a one-story wooden house of not very extensive
dimensions, and when subjected j
to the force of one of those hurricanes so .
numerous of late years at the west, its pow- j
ers of resistance were insufficient to with- v
stand so great a pressure, and it yielded the j
point without a struggle?however, it was j
not upset, nor torn to pieces, but merely (j
moved a few roils. In the course of the t
journey the stove was upset and the fire spilt j,

imminent. Old Peter was too much exci- c.
ted to notice the removal of his house, and ,
seeing the necessity of immediately apply- ,,
ing water to the burning embers on the j
floor, he seized a bucket and darted out be- s
hind the house, when great was his astonish- 'tj
rnent to find all the traces of his well oblite- e
rated. After lookingin blank astonishment j
a moment, he called out to his wife: ^
"Sarah, I'll be blamed if the wind has not s
blown the well clear out of the lot!"
Tom Corwin's Reply.?Tom Corwin un- *
dertook, when a member of the Ohio Legis- J;
lature, to have a law enacted abolishing
whipping for crime. He spoke at some !
length in support of his measure, and an el- ''
derly gentleman, who represented a rural
district, answered as follows:
"Mr. Speaker, the gentleman is not as old ?
as I am, and has not seen as much of the ,!
practical operation of the system of punishment
which lie desires to abolish. When 11
I lived in Connecticut, if a fellow stole a P
horse or cut up other antics, we used to tie *
him up, and give him a real good thrashing *
and he always cleared right out, and we
never saw anything more of him. It's the
best way to get rid of the rogues that ever v
was tried, and without expense to the *
State." t'
Corwin rose to reply : 1

to account for the vast immigration from (1
Connecticut to the west, but the gentleman "
last up has explained it to my satisfaction."
? ^ . n
Of course the following anecdote has n
not the slightest reference to the judiciary h
of our own noble land, but to the institu- v
tions of justice in Central Africa. A law- i<
yer met the judge on the street, and failed t!
to pay him that deference to which he o
thought himself entitled. "Young man, I o
fine you five dollars for contempt of court," C
said the irate judge. "Why, judge, you are is
not in session," was the quick response, v
The judge drew himself up to his full height h
and then replied : "Young man, this court h
is always in session, and consequently al- p
ways an object of contempt." n
flaT A clergyman in Durham, England, b
some short time since, taught an old man in e
his parish to read, and found him an apt pu- ?<
pil. After his lessons were finished, he was n
not able to will for some time, and when he
did, only found the wife at home. "How is x
John ?" said he. "How does he get on with j
his reading?"
"Oh, nicely, sir." | Q
"Ah, I suppose he'll read his Bible very i /
comfortably now ?"
"Bible, sir ! Bless.you, sir, he was out of! v
the Bible and into the newspapers long ago." i *

times given by children in response to ques-!
tions put to them in school. At a school at!
Wallsend, near Newcastle, the master asked I
a class of boys the meaning of the word j
"appetiteand after a brief pause, one I
little bov said : j h

5??- Why don't you wheel that barrow of i q
coals, Ned?" said a learned miner to one of j p
his sons. "It is not a hard job; there is an , v
inclined plane to relieve you." j 0
"Ah," replied Ned, who had more relish J n
for wit than work, "the plane may be in- ! j,
clined, but hang me if I am." . j n
5^One of the boys in a New Orleans j J
school was asked, after various definitions j

THE FINAL JUDGMENT.
The doctrine of a final judgment can be
learly proven only by the Scriptures. The
ftme is true with'regard to the doctrine of
he resurrection. The two are intimately
nd inseparably connected. All that unasisted
intellect can discover in regard to the
esurrection is very little. Neither expeience
nor observation teach us anything
n the subject. The sum of the whole that
re can learn outside of the Bible with repect
to the resurrection of the dead is, that
he doctrine is beyond the discoveries of
eason, but not contrary to reason. No one
till deny that God can, if he so determines,
aise the dead. This js about all that we
re able, without tne rsioie, to conciuae repecting
the resurrection of the (lead. No
vents come under our observation which
ully corroborate the fact. With respect to
final judgment it is different. The teachngsof
the Bible on this subject are corrobrated
by events which take place every
ay, under our observation. Let it be admitted
that man is an immortal being, and
hat he is accountable for his acts. A few
fill deny that man is an immortal being,
ut the number is so few that they need not
e regarded. All men, everywhere, are
arced to admit that man is accountable for
lis acts. No one will claim that any law of
tod can be violated with impunity. All
iave an experimental knowledge of this
act. Admit that man is an immortal being
nd that he is accountable for his acts, ancl
. final judgment seems to be a necessity,
fo one will claim that justice is either fairyor
fully administered in this word. None
f the human family deserve anything good.
Ill are guilty, but the ratio of sin and punshment
is not strictly observed. The greatst
violators of law are not punished the
nost severely. This has always been the
ase. While no trangressorentirely escapes,
he most law-abiding frequentfy suffers
nore than the greatest outlaws. There
nust be a court ol final resort in which iusice
is meted out with an even hand, and all
crongs righted. The Bible teaches us that
t the last day every member of the human
amily will be rewarded according to the
leeds done in the body, whether good or
>ad, and to the teaching of the Bible on this
ubject, asenseof justice, as it still exists in
nan's soul, says Amen.

CHRIST THE SHEPHERD.
One of the most beautiful lyric poems in
my language is the twenty-third Psalm,
['he language is simple, expressive and
ouchingly pathetic. There is a volume of
neaning in the words,
"The Lord is mv shepherd."
This same poetic figure our Saviour adopts
mil proclaims to a lost world, "I am the
food shepherd." In the twenty-third Psalm
he inspired penman, incited by the Holy
Spirit, states definitely the relation which
he believer sustains to Christ (Jehovah)
tnd in the gospel by John, Christ expresses
he relation which he bears to the believer.
The language is figurative in both cases, but
lignified and illustrative of the absolute de>eiidence
of believers upon Christ and of
Christ's supporting grace constantly granted
o believers.
The language, "The Lord is ray sheplerd,"
uttered by the believer, and the re>ly,
"I am the good shepherd," made by
resus Christ, are two massive pillars upon
vhich the beautiful structure of a Godly
ife may be built. The words, "The Lord
s my shepherd," uttered by the believer,
lenote several things.* Prominent among
hese may be noted, 1st, The believer's
:nowledge of the fact that he is constantly
xposed to eminent danger, and may be
ailed upon, in the providence of God, to
>ass through great temporal and spiritual
mictions. Every true believer in the Lord
esus Christ is aware of the fact that, like a
heep on the mountains, he is exposed to
langer. lie livesin a community frequentd
by prowling wolves. His nearest and
?est earthly friends are often his spiritual
oes. His enemies are many and they are
trong. His soul is in constant jeopardy.
2nd. Every true believer is conscious of
he fact that, unassisted, he is not able to
otnbat successfully with his enemies. The
tinguage of jus unsanctineci neari is, mar
ne day he will fall a prey to his enemies,
ut the language of faith is, "The Lord is
ay shepherd."
The reply of Jesus Christ to the believer
ustains him. "I am the good shepherd,"
? the prop which sustains the believer uner
all his afflictions. These afflictions are
aany. Why it is that God permits his peole
to be so afflicted we may not be able to
xplain. The fact no one will doubt. All
he eminently pious, of whom we have any
ccount, were greatly afflicted. The ungodv
are not so afflicted. Why this is the case
,re do not fully understand. Paul had his
horn in the flesh. For the removal of this
horn, whatever it was, he besought the
iord thrice. This the Lord did not grant,
ut he granted him grace sufficient to enure
the thorn. This was better than if he
ad removed the thorn.
One of the names given in the Old Testalent
to Jesus Christ is Jehovah-jireh, which
leans the Lord will provide. As the slieperd
provides for his sheep, so Jesus Christ
,'ill provide for his people. There is one
lea in the language of the Psalmist and in
sof t\f tho SJavirwir which \vp sihnulfl net
verlook. It is tiie idea that Jesus Christ
wns believers and believers belong to Jesus
hrist. When the Psalmist says "The Lord
> my shepherd," one idea contained in the
,'ords is, that as sheep belong to the sheperd,
so he belongs to the Lor?. Paul plead
is Roman citizenship as a safeguard to his
erspn. The believer can say to all his eneiies"I
am the property of Jesus Christ.
Ie will protect me and hold you aceountale
for all your attacks upon me." To the
nemies of believers Jesus Christ says,
these are my sheep. I bought them with
jy blood; they are mine."
There is something delightful in the
hought that believers belong to Jesus Christ,
t suggests that Jesus Christ has in believrs
that peculiar interest which the possessr
has in his possessions. The idea that Jesus
'hrist owns believers runs through the
rnoie fM-Tiptures. 11: are uui yuui vwu,
e are bought with a price," are the words
f the apostle Paul. Again, the same aposle
says to believers, "Ye are Christ's, and
hrist is God's."

MOSES.
God, for the purpose of exhibiting to the
lUinan family, in all future generations,
he strength of Abraham's faith, commandd
him to take his son Isaac into the land of
loriah and there otfer him up for a burnt
tfering. The marvelous strength of Abraam's
faith, as exhibited on that occasion,
,-on for him the honorable title of "Father
f the faithful." On account of his promptess
in obeying this command of God, it
> customary to speak of Abraham as the
lost devoutly pious of all the Old Testa?!iint?.
The willingness of Abraham
:> obey God, even to the extent of sacrifiing
his son, whom lie dearly loved, is rearded
as the most wonderful exhibition of
he power of divine grace the w >rld has
ver witnessed. That it does demonstrate
'hat grace can do, no one dare deny, but
hat it is the most striking exhibition of the
eforming and transforming power of the
Ioly Spirit upon the human heart, may
rell be questioned. The most wonderful
xhibition of the power of the Holy Spirit
i found in Moses. While the children of
srael were still in the wilderness, spies
'ere sent to examine the land of Canaan,
,'hich God had promised them for a possesion,
and to which they were journeying,
'wo reports were made by these spies?one
ivorable and the other unfavorable. The
eople believed the unfavorable report and
egan to murmur. Joshua and Caleb atempted
to encourage the people to go forward
in the discharge of their duty. For
his act of kindness, the shout was raised in
amp, "stone them." At this critical juncure
of affairs the "glory of the Lord ap eared
in the tabernacle of the congregation
>efore all the children of Israel." God then
n the exercise of his prerogatives, said
into Moses, "How long will this people
irovokeme? And how long will it be ere
hey believe me, for all the signs which I
iave showed among them ? God then made
he following proposition to Moses : "f will
) smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit
them, and make thee a greater nation
and mightier than they." This proposition
Moses aid not accept. He knew what God
had promised to do for the seed of Abraham.
He knew that God had promised to make
Abraham the father of nations. Yet he rejected
the proposition in which God promjisedto
make of him a greater nation and
mightier than he had promised to make ol
Abraham. He reiected all the wealth, and
honorandfame which would attend a nation
greater and mightier than that which descended
from Abraham, and for whom God
had done so much in Ham's land. Xevei
did any mere man give such an exhibition
of pure unselfishness as Moses did on thai
occasion. The reason which he gives for
not accepting the proposition is the most remarkable
feature of the whole transaction.
"The Egyptians," he says, "shall hear it,
and through them, all the inhabitants ol
the earth shall hear of it, and say the God
of Israel was not able to do what he promised,
therefore, he slew his people in the
wilderness."
Moses seems to have been insensible to
everything except the glory of God. God's
glory was more to him than his becoming
the father of a great and prosperous nation.
The question may be jisked, "Was God
really in earnest in the offer which he macie
to Moses ? We reply, yes. Had Moses accepted,
God certainly would have swept,
with the besom of destruction, the host ol
the children of Israel from the face of the
earth, and made of Moses and his descendants
all that he has made of Israel. Again
it may be asked, "What then would have
become of the many promises which God
made to faithful Abraham?" We reply,
they would all have been faithfully, to the
letter, fulfilled. Moses was a descendant ol
Abraham. Finally, it may be asked, Wh^
did God not make Moses the head and chiei
of a great and mighty nation ? Apparently
the pivot on which this whole mattei
turned was the entreaty of Moses. Beyond
this, we can only conjecture.
Several Years.?Mr. M. Cook, Mourn
Pleasant, X. C.,says: "I have been troubled
with stomach disorders several years ant
have never gotten permanent relief until 1
used Norman's Neutralizing Cordial. It i;
certainly the right medicine for such trou
bles and I highly recommend it."?Adv.

of that special class of medicines known to net spe- , j

In these cases it nffords immediate iv
relief, and permanently restores tlie men- * 1
