piraoMus The. Disobedience of Parents.?Johnny Fizzletop created a sensation in school by reading the following composition "The disobedience of parents is often the , source of a good deal of uneasiness to their offspring. Men who commit the darkest crimes generally begin by being disobedient to their children. "Disobedient parents are often the result of indulgent children, who intend it for the good of their progenitors, but are aware too late that it is not beneficent. Of course, parents have their privileges, and do not rel ish having them "interfered with, but it is the duty of every conscientious child to see that they do not assume too much authority. Parents are naturally presuming, unless they are checked up once in a while. How often do we see a home where there is no peace, no harmony, no love? The indulgent kid allows not only his parents but his grandparents, and relatives who may be in the house to have their own way and follow the dictates of their own foolish desires. The child who fails to keep a tight rein on the reckless parent is, sooner or later, sure to have his gray hairs, if he lives long enough, brought down in sorrow to the cemetery. Parents who obey their children are the first to obey their Heavenly Father. What a wise old adage it is, 'Bring up a parent in the way he should go, and when ne is old he will not depart from it.' Obedient and good parents make useful men and women when they grow up."? Texas Siftingg. # ? ? Declared Off.?A few days ago, after a couple of esteemed citizens, who are close neighbors, had arranged to pass a few days with their families at a lake in Oakland county, one of them offered to wager a box r\f rtifrurc fhof ho orrmlri t.hp larpfPSf fish. The wager was promptly taken, and next day one of the gentlemen put in an appearance at a fish stand on the market and said to the dealer: "Have you got a fresh pickerel weighing about fifteen pounds?" "I have, sir." "Well, I want you to put him on ice and ship him to me at Lake. I propose to catch him on a hook out there." "Very well, sir. I think I'll ship the two together." "The two?" "Yes, sir, Mr. (mentioning the other esteemed citizen) was here an hour ago and bought one weighing twenty pounds! It will take less ice to pack the two in the same box!" The fish were paid for, but the bet was declared off?Detroit Free Press. i?-Pretty Cousin (to young doctor)? "So you are a full fledged doctor, are you, Tom ?" "Young Doctor?"Yes, I got my diploma last week." Pretty Cousin?"Have you any specialty?" "Young Doctor?"Yes; I shall make children's diseases a specialty." Pretty Cousin?"Ah, yes, I see; and as you gain experience in your profession you will be able to attend older people. That's right, Tom, begin at the bottom and work your way up."?Drake's Magazine. 4S^I never did take much stock in that story about fish being such fine brain food," inadvertently remarked Smith, "and I take less stock in it than ever now, that I've lived off" little else for some time past. I think I'll quit them." "I would if I were you, old boy," feelingly responded Smithers; "you see, the fish, in order to improve the brain, must have something to work on. They can't create the thing." And then Smith said that Smithers talked for all the world like his wife.?0/7 City Blizzard.

Don't mind telling you that I am going to be married. You can imagine how good natured and jolly I feel."

In the rage for new-process flour it should be remembered that the old kind, containing a larger proportion of starch, is best for pastry and many other purposes. For bread the new process is superior; but it does not make, with ordinary management, as good biscuits or piecrust as that ground in t>e old fashioned way. ? Last month five notorious murderers made their escape from Asheville, X. C., jail. The grand jury on Saturday made a report censuring the sheriff and jailor for culpable negligence in the matter and demanding an investigation by the county authorities. No tidings have been heard of the escaped men who are said now to be in East Tennessee. ? All the legislative candidates ol the Citizens' League were defeated in Louisville, Ivy. The League was a reform organization composed of men of both parties, but owing to unfortunate selection of candidates and extraneous causes it met a aeteat. xaie (Dem.) for State Treasurer, is elected by a good majority, but a light vote was polled all over the State. The convention was defeated. ? In his Arbor Day proclamation, the Governor of Kansas said that the State, which the pioneers found treeless and a desert, now bears upon its fertile bosom "more than 20,000,000 fruit trees and more than 200,000 acres of forest trees, all planted by our own people." The Governor also says: "That , there has been an increase in the rainfall of ' Kansas is fully proved by the statistics of J our oldest meteorologists." ? Despite complaints at his slow progress the President has now considered all cases of presidential postmasters which have , been made ready and presented to his at- J tention. Pie has made 407 appointments, j of which 274 were to vacancies caused by j expiration of term or resignations, and 183 in places of suspended officers. A large number of solicited removals were refused, it is said, because he did not consider the , proofs such as to warrant action. ? It is rather an alarming thing to be told : that the American people is promising to develop into a toothless generation, and yet ( this is what a dentist of high repute says. , Bad teeth are heriditary, and the only thing J that will save us is to live chiefly on grain foods and good beef. The large amount of , molasses eaten by children of the poor is a fruitful cause of bad teeth, and in this ( roenppf. it, is nrcttv e^enerallv admitted that rich people's children have better teeth ' than children of the poor. ? Kiel's father, who died at St. Boniface, Manitoba, while he was in college at Montreal, was of Scandinavian descent. He was ! a miller. Louis' parents had eleven children, of whom five were boys and six girls. 1 Five of them have died. They are Elle, Marie, Philomrae, Charles and Sara, who was a sister of Charity at Lisle a la Crone, Northwest Territory. Of those living, Louis is the eldest of the family. After him come Joseph, who lives at St. Boniface ; Alexan- ; dre, the youngest married, who lives with . his mother; and Ulalie, Henrietta, and Oc- , tavie, three girls, who are married, in St. ' Vital. | ?The friends of Lieutenant Greely, of Arctic fame, are extremely solicitous about 1 his health. They fear that he is declining , rapidly. He is now at his home in Massa- ! chusetts, taking a rest for the benefit of his health. His friends have urged him to take a year's leave of absence and spend it in some part of the country the climate of which is suitable to his state of health. Mr. ! Greely had hoped to spend a short time in Europe, but poverty has prevented the accomplishment of his desire. It is asserted that the failure of Congress to reward him in a substantial manner for his Arctic trip has had a very depressing effect, both on his mind and body. ? Several years ago there was quite a railroad fever at Winston, N. C., over the , building of the N. C. Midland Railroad?an ' extension of the Virginia Midland from , Danville to the Tennessee line. This road was to have been built by way of Winston. J That town subscribed stock to the amount ' of $40,000; $10,000 worth of bonds of this subscription were issued. The work was , never completed. The road and its franchises passed into other hands. The holders of the coupons of these bonds instituted 1 a suit against Winston for their payment. : The case came up before C. A. Fogle, J.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat tells the following story. A prominent citizen '} of Jones county, Miss., who stood high up in the church, made a visit to Meridian recently, and upon his return told his neigh- J bors he had seen ice manufactured in that town with the thermometer standing at 98. ( It soon became a settled fact in the minds of the members of the church that Brother j Blank had degenerated into an able liar, j Charges were preferred against him, and a j committee of church members were appoint-; ed to visit Meridian and convict the erring j 1 hrofhpr of lvincr Thpv U'Pnt.

A look of astonishment on the faces of the 1 assembled brethren soon gave way to one of indignation, and Brother Blank and the entire committee were incontinently expelled from the church. ? Mr. Meiggs carried his famous railroad j , from Lima to the crest of the Andes, over | j three miles high, at a cost of ?27,000,000 and j 7,000 human lives, but died before com-1 < pleting it. About fifty miles of track re-1, mained to be built. A contract for its con-1 struction has just been made with a brother ! of Mayor Grace, of New York. It is said ', that the sensation of riding up this railroad, ; logeiner wan me rapiu ascent irom me sen level to the mountain's crest, produces a ; sickness called "sirocche," of ten fatal, and ' usually sending people to bed for several weeks. The symptoms are a terrible pros- ' sure upon the temples, nausea, bleeding at the nose and ears, and faintness, but the , effects can be avoided by taking precautions and observing rules that experience j has suggested, the chief one being to drink , a glass of brandy, and keep perfectly quiet , as the slightest degree of exercise will door the strongest man. ?Governor Hoadly, on Wednesday, ex-! pressed the opinion that Judge Foraker; could not possibly be elected Governor of Ohio. The Republicans now concede that ' they made a serious mistake in having their convention so early. Their party is daily losing strength on account of tights among 1 the leaders. Their present campaign is merely a fight between ex-Governor Foster ; and Senator Sherman for a seat in the 1 United States Senate. Governor Hoadly thinks the Democrats will easily win on account of these disaffections in the party and loss of the control of the German vote. In speaking of his accepting the Democratic nomination, which he declares he does not want, he says: "As to accepting the nomination if it were tendered in a way which satisfied me that it was the universal wish of the Democratic party that I should be i their candidate, then I 'would consider the matter. I should then feel at liberty to de- j cline, but we have not reached that issue i yet, and I will not meet it until presented | to me." fUadittg im the fabbath. j CONDUCTED BY . HEV. ROBERT LATH AN. [ Original.] BACKBITERS. In every community there is a class of individuals who may be Scripturally called "backbiters." The English word backbite describes the habit of a species of the dog family. This peculiar kind of dog is remarkable for but ope thing, and that is the mean and cowardly practice of slipping up behind an individual, biting him and then running under the house, or into some place of protection. As a watch dog the creature is worthless, and it has no value as a hunter. It is the meanest of the dog family and a disgrace to the noble animal whose name it bears. In society, there is a class of individuals who imp the cowardly actions of this infamous "fice." They backbite their neighbors, not with their teeth as the dog does, but with their tongues. They are not liars in that they tell falsehoods without the shadow of a foundation. They, in the lan guage of the Scriptures, "take"up reproaches against their neighbors." Of their neighbors they have nothing good to say, but say a great deal that is evil. They have a knowledge of all the wrong doings of their acquaintances and publish them far and wide, but are as mute as a stone as to any and all good that their acquaintances have done or are doing. They have much evil to say about everybody and no good to say about any one. The striking characteristic of these backbiters is, that they always talk about persons and not about things. No man or woman escapes them. In some way or other, they learn something that every individual has done or said, which is wrong, and this wrong doing or saying is made the sole theme of their conversation. They have always something bad to tell about some one?something they saw or heard, or something that some one?but they have forgotten who?told them. The habit of backbiting is one that is easily contracted, but it should be carefully avoided. While a falsehood is never to be told, it would be wrong to tell the whole truth about any man or woman. There is not a man or woman, living or dead, of any worth to society, whose character is beyond reproach. We all sin. We violate both tables of the moral law every day. We sin against God, and we sin against our fellowman. The truth is not to be told at all times. To do so would be backbiting. It Iioitq o Hironf tondon^v tn ttirnw <?n eiety into worse than anarchy and confusion. It would convert it into a little perdition. It would be well for us when we are reporting the wrong doings of others if we would take our own case into consideration. Our Saviour said to a self-conceited crowd of tell-tale Scribes and Pharisees, who had brought into his presence an infamous woman, "He that is without sin among you, let him firstcastastoneather." The words of the Saviour went like a barbed arrow to their souls. Their own consciences convicted them, and they skulked away, and the poor woman was left alone with Jesus. What a lesson to backbiters! What a lesson to everybody, for we are all addicted to backbiting. There is an old saying to this import: "If you can say nothing good about the dead, ?ay nothing." The dead cannot defend themselves, hence nothing bad must be said about them. So far as the backbiter is concerned, the living are dead. They are unable to defend themselves. Backbiters are deadly foes, but not open enemies. Unseen they bite. "The tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how much wood is kindled by how small a fire : And the tongue is a fire: the world of iniquity among our members is our tongue, which deflleth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of nature, and is set on fire by hell." [Original.] TROUBLES. The patient patriarch said, having perfect knowledge of what he said, "Man that is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble." Again he says, "Man is born unto trouble as the sparks fly upward." The iource or origin of all our troubles is sin, and as sin is universal so is trouble. Sin Droduces trouble and the existence of trouble demonstrates the existence of sin, just as an effect demonstrates the existence of a cause. One thing noticeable about our troubles is that they are remediless so far as any created agent or agency is concerned. Created wisdom cannot devise a cure for troubles. Neither can created wisdom discover a preventive against troubles. "Man is born unto trouble." Another thing remarkable about trouble is that it springs up from a quarter whence we least expect it, and at a time we are least prepared for it. In addition to this, trouble never comes on us single handed. One trouble is the harbinger of another and severer one. Perhaps the most remarkable characteristic of our troubles is that as we grow old they become more numerous and more grievous. There is a remedy for all our troubles. It is the atonement of Jesus Christ. This removes sin, the producing cause of all our troubles, and the Holy Spirit cleanses from * T? l!#x f,oo. II1U IIIL11 Ul SI 11 in tins uiu ausuiutu netdora is rarely, if ever attained, but troubles tire sanctified and blessed to the good of those who are the subjects of them. No affliction, no trouble of any kind is, while we ire in the flesh, joyous. It is a grievous thing, but in the case of those who "receive ind rest upon Jesus Christ alone for salvation as he is offered in the gospel," troubles the most severe, are made to work together for God's glory, and the good of those who ire the subjects of these troubles. Troubles, although they have their origin in sin, are, according to the economy of the L'ovenant of grace, converted into instrumentalities by which believers are prepared for heaven. Original.J LIFE-GIVING. There is a power in the Bible which is in nothing else. "The word of the Lord is juick and powerful." Rather, "the word of the Lord is life-giving, or life-producing md powerful." The word of Jesus Christ ?ave life to the dead and putrefying body of Lazarus and it has given spiritual life to countless thousands before and since the resurrection of Lazarus. The lightning rends the strong oak of the forest, the cyclone dashes todestruction everything in its path, the plague desolates cities and death stalks through the land cutting down with his sharp sickle, the young ana the old, but [iod has magnified his word above all his name, in that it converts the soul. tSjrSome one has said that "when wecome to die we will find that all we have is what we have given away." This strange declaration seems to be warranted by what our Saviour said to a certain young man: "If thou wilt be perfect, go, sell what thou hast, md give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven." The declaration filled the young man's mind with grief and he went away, "for he was one that had great possessions." God had bestowed upon him the means of doing a great deal of good, but he was unwilling to use the possessions which God had given him for tne purpose finr whir?h thpv were eriven. ISrJn all things we are to follow Christ. We are commanded to be governed in all that we say, in all we do, in all we think, by Jesus Christ. The younger children in a family by a law of their nature look up to and pattern after the older ones. The same is seen to be the case in schools, and the same is seen to be the case in neighborhoods. Some persons are the patterns which the rest follow. Jesus Christ is the pattern which all?old men and boys, old women and little girls?are to follow. He is our Elder Brother. flaT He is the best Christian who is the most charitable in his judgments of others; and he is no Christian at all who does not exercise that divine charity which "thinketh no evil." Frederick W. ltobertson says : "Be sure that it is the severe and pitiless censor of others' faults on whom you may, at a venture, safely fix the charge, 'Thou art the man!' " Harsh judgments prove guiltrather than innocence.?Central Advocate. Ihe ^orbriUr (Jjaquim.

TALCOTT, Superintendent. July 23 30 tf Eczema ! For the benefit of suffering humanity, and in heartfelt gratitude at the wonderful results, I deem it only my duty to give this unsolicited testimony in favor of Swift's Specific. My wife has been afflicted with hereditary Eczema or salt Rheum from her infancy; it has increased in intensity with each succeeding spring, and being somewhat skilled in medicine myself, I tried every remedy I could think of for years? Sarsaparifla combined with every form of Potassie, "Cuticura," pills of every kind, and hundreds of other remedies, lotions and alkali wash oi every kiiowii kijhi, out uiey an oiuv temporary relief. During the spring of 1884 her lower extremities became so inflamed and sore that she was obliged to keep them constantly coated with a covering of "Fuller's Earth," mixed wet and allowed to dry on. Among other things, she was afllicted with a periodical nervous headache, oceuring regularly every seven days, sometimes followed by intermittent fever for weeks at a time, so that" her life became a burden to her. This Spring I determined she should take S. S. S. and follow strictly the directions in regard to dose, diet, etc. This was about seven weeks ago. After taking the first large bottle the disease seemed to increase; the burning, itching and inflammation became unbearable. She, however, persevered in the use of the medicine. After taking the second bottle the inflammation began to subside. After taking the third bottle the inflammation disappeared, and sore spots dried up and turned whiteand scaly, and finally she brushed them off in an impalpable white powder resembling pure salt. She is now taking the sixth bottle, three tablespoonful four times daily. Every appearance of the disease has gone, and her flesh is becoming soft, white and smooth again ; and what is more, her periodical headaches have disappeared, and she is now at 53 years of age, enjoying the only good health she has known for upwards of forty years. No wonder she declares with emphasis "that every bottle of S. S. S. is worth a thousand times its weight in gold. Any further information in regard to her case will be cheerfully given by herself at her residedce, 135 Mullett Street, or by me. JOHN F.
