WOULDN'T DRAW.
The Generous Man With the Lemon Gets
a Tart Reception.
The old chap had no sooner found a
seat in the street car than he pulled a
lemon from his coat-tail pocket, jabbed
a hole in it with his fiuger and carried
the fruit to bis mouth and took a
hearty draw. After he had repeated
the action three or four times, making
a noise like a well pump with the
valve out of repair, he leaned forward
and said to the man across the aisle:
"Ever suck a lemon furyer health ?"
"No, sir!" was the emphatic reply.
"You orter. They are twice as
healthy as apples or taters. Have a
draw ?"
"JNo, sir J"
"I won't charge ye fur it. Better
take a draw and tone up."
"You attend to your own affairs,
sir!" was the ungracious answer.
"Huh ! You ain't gettin' mad, are
you ? Lands alive, but thar's nuthin'
to git mad at. I kinder thought you
wanted a draw at this lemon and so I
offered it to you. Anythin' wrong
with your suction ?"
"Look here, old man!" cautioned
the other as he leaned across the aisle,
"don't give me any more of your
chin !"
"My chin ! Why, I haven't given
you any chin ! Mebbeyou don't want
to draw arter me, but this is the only
one I've got. Won't take it, eh?
Wall, I'm alius willin' to obleege if I
kin. Goin'fur?
"None of your business, sir!"
"Why, what's the rumpus? I
hain't called you a liar or anythin',
as I remember .of. Shoo ! Shoo !"
"And some day," said the other as
he rose up to leave the car and scowled
at the smiling passengers, "you'll
meet someby who'll knock your head
off!"
"Huh! Shoo! What fur? Now,
did you ever ? Got right off the kyar,
did he, an' lookin' madder'n a wet
h?n i Wall, wall?it's discouraein' to
meet sich critters, but I s'pose we
must, an' if nobody else wants a suck
at this lemon I'll go out and hand it
over to the conductor. Mighty good
to tone up the system?mighty good,
an' I ain't one to keep a good thing all
to myself. Wall, goodby, all, and it
don't do any hurt if ye swaller the
seeds and eat the rind, 'cause it's all
lemon, ye know !"?New York World.
"GET OUT AND WALK."
There is a law iu Kentucky popularly
known as the "Jim Crow Coach
Law." By this act colored citizens
and plain, or white, citizens must not
occupy the same compartment in any
coach on any line of railway within
the state. In April, 1896, a white
man, being a sheriff, had to escort
three colored convicts to a penitentiary.
The sheriff and his charges
boarded a train, and were seated in
the "Jim Crow" compartment. In
that compartment were a dozen AfroAmericans,
blameless before the law.
They objected to the presence of a
white man in their compartment.
"The Sep'rate Coach act says no
white man shall ride in any co'partmen'
reserved for cullud citizens,"
said a black preacher.
"Ain't no question 'bout that," assented
a yellow book agent.
The conductor was called, and a
committee of three expounded the
law and insisted upon tbe rights thereby
secured to colored citizens. The
sheriff argued from the executive exigencies
of the occasion.
"I ain't a-goin' to leave them prisoners
out o' my sight," he said.
But the conductor, the supreme authority
upon a train in transitu, decided
that the sheriff must get out of
the "Jim Crow" compartment, but he
might take his three prisoners with
him, if he chose, which he did choose.
In the smoker, a white folks' compartment,
the appearance of the three
Negro criminals aroused angry feel- .
ings.

cropper, "we can't have no niggers in
this compartment." i
The sheriff rose to make an expla- i
nation. i
"Gentlemen, I've got to take these i
three colored convicts to Eddyville. i
Now, if I can't go in the Jim Crow j
because I'm white, and the prisoners
can't stay in here, bein' niggers, I ,
want you, gentlemen, to tell me how i
in thunder I'm to deliver my prisoners i
'cordin' to my instructions ?" I
"Git out and walk," was the unani- i
mous verdict, expressed vociferously,
and without a second's hesitation. i
Meanwhile the train had gone a i
matter of 10 miles from its starting- I
point. Nevertheless, the sheriff and I
his prisoners had to get off at a small !
wayside station, where the pied combination
waited some hours before a <
freight train came aloner and hosDit- I
ably received them into its caboose. ]
W&~ "Prisoner," said Prosecutor Buxton,
"you are charged with gambling."
"Gambling ? What is gambling ?"
"Playing cards for money."
"But I did not play cards for money
; I played for chips."
"Well, you got money for your
chips at the end of the game, didn't
you ?"
"No; I didn't have any chips at the
end of the game."

Hab. 11, 20?Commentary by the Rev. ]j
D. M. Stearns. a
64. "He aroeo from before the altar of
the Lord, from kneeling on his knees, with s'
his hands spread up to heaven." In that 1
position on a brazen scaffold (II Chron. vl, r
18), In the light of all Israel had Solomon d
prayed to the Lord as he dedicated to Him a
t.hn t?mnl? whlnh he had been Drivlleced to r
build. The temple being finished, they t]
brought to It the ark of the covenant
from Zlon, and the tabernacle from Glbeon, a
with all the holy vessels, and put all In 8
the temple (verse 4 and II Chron. i, 8, 4). b
We are not told that any of the tabernacle u
furniture was used in the temple except c
the ark of the covenant Everything but p
the ark was on a much larger and grander a
scale. They had ten tables and ten candle- rj
sticks, etc., but the same ark containing .
nothing but the two tables of stone (verse 11
9). When Solomon had made an end of v
praying, the fire came down from heaven p
and consumed the burnt offering and the f<
sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled ^
the house so that even the priests could not p
enter into the house becauso of the glory
(II Chron. vii, 1, 2; v, 18, 14). ,
55. "And he stood and blessed all the
congregation of Israel with a loud voica " 8
The eight divisions of his prayer may be ^
easily rocognizcd by the eight times re- u
pea tod, "Hear Thou in heaven" (verses si
80, 82, 84, 86, 39, 48, 45, 49). The object g
of the temple is seen in the oft repeated ^
phrase, "An house for the name of the
Lord," or "For Thy name" (verses 16, 17,
18, 19, 20, 48, 44, 48), in order that "all a
peoplo of the earth may know Thy name,
to fear Thee, as do Thy peoplo of Israel E
(verse 48), for there is no God in heaven
above or on earth beneath like the Lord a
God of Israel (verso 23), who doeth wonders
for His servants, requiring of them only .
that thoy walk before Him with all their *
heart. His people are a separated people 11
unto Him from all the peoplo of the earth a
to bo His inheritance" (verse 53). it
56. '' Blessed be the Lord that hath given
rest unto His people Israel, according to 0
all that He promisod. There hath not fall- Q
ed one word of all His good promise, which
He promised by the hand of Mo90s, His 01
Bervant" Before he prayed he also blessed n
the congregation, referring to the Lord's 11
goodness and faithfulness in having fulfill- w
ed with His hand all that Ho spake with b
His mouth (verses 15, 24). In Joshua's
farewell ho also said, "Ye know in all your C|
hearts and in all your souls that not ono
thing hath failed of all the good things .
which the Lord your God spake concerning
iron" fJnflhnu ixlli. 14).
67. ''The Lord our God bo with us, as ic
He was with our futhers. Lot Him not tl
leave us nor foreako us.'' God had, through la
Moses, His Bcrvant, spoken of this rest for
His people, and this place where Ho would ^
cause His namo to dwell (Dout. ill, 10, 11),
and He had also given them these promIses:
"The Lord thy God, He it Is that doth w
go with thee; He will not fail thee nor forsake
thee. Fear not, nolther bo dismayed" t(
(Deut xxxl, 6, 8). His great encourage- t\
mcnt to Moses himself and to Joshua and q]
Gideon was "I will be with thee" (Ex. iii, f0
12; Joshua i, 5; Judg. vi, 16). We may
well bo content with such things as wo
have since I^o hath said, "I will never
leave thco nor forsake thee" (Hob. xili, 5). Cl
68. " That Ho may Incline our hearts un- ai
to Him to walk in all His ways." To it
know Him is the greatest thing on earth, ?i
and perhaps in heaven too. It is bettor
than wisdom or riches or might (Jer. ix, r,
28, 24). He said in His great prayer, "O .
righteous Father, the world hath not
known Thee, but I have known Thee"
[John xyii, 25), and in verse 8 Ho said that
It was life eternal to know God and Jesus a
Christ. C(
59. "And let these my words, wherewith m
[ have made supplication before the Lord, ,
bo nigh unto the Lord our God day and
night." Solomon asks this in order that al
bhe Lord may maintain his cause and the bi
cause of Israel as each day shall require, tl
See margin and R. V., and also Jer. Ill, oi
34, where the Hebrew phrase is the samo.
It is a daily relying upon the Lord to man ^
age all that concerns us, and Ho will surely
do it for all who truly rely upon Him, .^
not only day by day, but every moment y
(Isa. xxvii, 8). lE
60. "That all tho people of the earth w
may know that the Lord Is God, and that tfc
there is none else." For that reason was Vv
Jordan divided (Joshua iv, 24), and for the aj
same reason will God yot do wondrous m
things for Israel (Ezek. xxxviii, 28). Ho
svould do wondrous things for His poople ct
today if they would but live wholly for C
Him and serve Hiin in sincerity with all tb
tho heart. Ho is still saying, " Call unto D
Mo and I will answer Thee and show Thee ry
jreat and mighty things which Thou gi]
tnowest not" (Jer. xxxiii, 3). It is writ- m
ten that "the pleasure of the Lord shall
prosper in His hand." And if His saints
ivould bo cheerfully in His hand and at ct
His feet for His pleasure, what might Ho cc
not do? (Isa. liil, 10; Deut. xxx, 3.) bl
01. " Let your heart therefore be perfect pi
ivith the Lord our God, to walk in His re
itatutes and to keep His commandments,
is at this day." David, ere ho died, admonished
Solomon to serve tho Lord with
i perfect heart and with a willing mind, '?
ind prayed God to give him a perfect heart w
? keep His commandments (I Chron. be
txvili, 9; xxix, 19). The Lord said to m
kbram, "Walk beforo Me and bo thou per- .K
!ect," and to Israel,'' Thou shalt be perfect : t
ivith the Lord thy God" (Gen. xvli, 1; ?
Deut. xviii, 13). As to daily life there is
10 one perfect in tho sense of being with- ^
jut Bin, for of ull men the Lord Jesus 10
Christ was the only man that ever lived re
without sin, but any redeemed soul can by $e
iho grace of God live und walk uprightly
ind have a whole heart for God, which is |Q
iho sense of perfect in these texts.
02. "And the king, and all Israel with P*
lim, offered sacrifice before tho Lord." (''
Notice tho oneness of the king and all th
Israel in the matter of the sacrifice. Every ai
lacriflco truly offered to God from the time at:
that the Lord God made unto Adam and vv
Eve coats of skins and clothed thorn (Gen. |<e
11, 21) pointed to the only sacrifice that
>ould take away sins?that of the Lamb of
Jod foreordained beforo the foundation of
[he world (I Pet. i, 20). M
63. "So the king and all the children of be
[srael dodlcated tho house of the Lord." m
\.nd tho Lord accepted tho house und filled |n
t with His glory, as wo have seen. We tiro m
(ommanded to present our bodies a living .
lacriflco as temples in which God the Fa- 1S
ihor, Son and Spirit may dwell (Rom. xli, Ul
i, 2; John xiv, 17, 23). And as truly as go
ve do this by virtuo of His blood shed for ge
is, Ho will accept the offering through tho ca
nerits of Jesus Christ and fill us with His \\
Spirit, even with all tho fullness of God

TRANSPLANTING TREES. s
A large proportion of trees are lost p
rom transplanting in the spring for n
he reason that the tops are not re- n
uced sufficiently. The tree, as it is I
eceived from the nursery, may have a v
/ell formed head, and one does not o
/ant to see it deformed, not knowing u
hat it is a necessity, perhaps, to its b
ife, certainly to its well doing, and n
lso that the surest way to preserve 3
be head in good form is to cut back y
everely all the young branches. In
be same way, shrubs and especially
ose bushes, are transplanted with the e
esire to see them bloom at once, and h
/ith the result of a feeble growth the b
rst year. The danger of such newly y
ransplanted subjects in a dry time e
nd under a scorching sun is very 9
reat. On the other hand, if the a
ranches are closely pruned, growth p
sually proceeds promptly, and at the tl
lose of autumn, the plants are amply v
rovided with new, well ripened wood, a
ble to bear the coming cold season. a
'be dangers that attend tree planting c
j spring time are greatly lessened by n
ery early planting, but usually early v
lanting is impracticable and, tbere)re,
the most careful attention afterwards
is demanded. In our own ex- p
erience the best success has resulted j?
I transplanting trees and shrubs in g
tie fall, in properly prepared soil, and b
iving winter protection by mulching ti
with litter of leaves. Such subjects c
sually start to grow promptly in p
pring and have already made a fine i(
rowth before spring planted trees p
ave started. We do not hesitate to tl
dvise fall planting in the climates not e
?ore severe than our own. a

CONOMY -"WASTE NOT, WANT NOT." t<
It takes a great deal of calculation ud
economy to get along in the world
ow-a-days, and it is not every one
lat is fully equal to the task. Some
ten plan, experiment and economize
II their life, and after all fuil of findig
the sure road to competence.
Now, economy, thrift, accumulation
f property, lies more in the method
f saving thau in making. One can
ire to waste nothing without being
iggardly, and a careful person can
lake an old article last and do the
ork of two seasons, where most men
uy new every year.
When you get a new implement take
ire of it; when you make a new crop
ive.it, not ouly from the weather, but
om loss in the house. Much is lost
y rats, by a leak in the roof or a hole
i the floor. Rust and rain wear out
le plows and the hoes faster than
ibor.
With a little wire two pair of old
aces will make a good pair and save y
ou a dollar. A new bottom to a cart
ill sometimes prevent the need of ~
Jtting one for 12 months. A cultiva- J
>r and a plow are worth more than
vo plows. Corn ground is worth
lore than whole corn for horses, but
>r no other stock, counting the time
id toll corn at the mill.
So with 100 things. One must cal- 1
llate and think. He must observe ^
ad compare. The only secret about w
is to take good care of a thing after P
iu get it, to save your mouey after a
iu make it. Don't spend $1 when
) cents will meet the case. Get bot- b
>m prices wheu you buy.

The Care of Honey.?Honey has tt
great affinity for moisture, aud if B
>mb honey is stored in a damp atosphere
it will absorb the moisture p
irough the slightly porous cappings #
id become thin and watery. The ^
ilk of the honey will be so increased ^
lat it will burst the cells and ooze J
it. The honey may become so
tinned that fermeutation willl set in. js
old is also detrimental to comb hon- M
causing it to candy in the cells. ^
^hen comb honey is first taken from
te hives, it should be stored in a r
arm, dry atmosphere. A room in
te southwest corner of a building
here it will become very hot in the cf
'lernoon is a good place to store it. Q
he heat continues the ripening pro- q,"
iss, and if there are any unsealed
ills, the honey in them becomes licker
and riper instead of thinner,
own in the cellar is where the ordina'
nnrehaser of comb honev is almost
ire to put it. No place could be
ore undesirable. Dryness and
arratli are the requisites for keeping
>rab honey. As ordinarily kept,
unb honey will candy before spring,
it by keeping it in a warm atmoslere
it will not candy, and will
ally improve with time.
Filling For Nail Holes.?The folwing
method of filling up nail holes in
ood is not only simple, but said to
! effectual: Take fine sawdust and
ix it into a thick paste with glue,
jund it into the hole, and when dry
will make the wood as good as new.
rank Christian, Jr., in Stoves and
urdware, says he has followed this
r 30 years, with unvarying success in g
pairing bellows, which is the most ?
vere test known. Often by frequent
tachments of new leather to old bel
ws frames, the wood becomes so
rforated that there is no space to
ive the nails, and even if there was,
e remaining holes would allow the _
r to escape. A treatment with glue J
id sawdust paste invariable does the ^
ork, while lead, putty, and other
medies always fail.
Consumption Cured by Warm
ilk.?The fact that consumption can
s cured is daily becoming more and
ore impressed on the mind of the
yraan. One of simplest and best
elhods of fighting this dread malady
the warm milk treatment, and while
tdergoing it the paticut is advised to
> on some farm, where he is sure to
t it fresh, and where, moreover, he
n pass his days iu horseback riding. C
hen the entire treatment is under- "
>ne, recovery from consumption
suld not only be possible, but would
ry likely occur, unless the lungs had pi
en too seriously diseased. An outor
life in pure air, good wholesome
3d and plenty of it, are the surest "
res for the malady, and no one of g,
e features is more important than
her of the others.

Power of Growing Plants.? ..
owing plants, trees and vegetables
ssess a power that is wonderful.
?he United States department of agiculture,
by experiments, found that
he force of a growing pumpkin was
ufficient to lift two and one-balf tons
rovided the weight is so placed as
ot to interfere with the growth or

W&T The young pig should have
nough feed to maintain thrift, but
e should not be fed as if he were
eing fattened. The digestion of 1
oung pigs is weak, and if overfed,
specially with corn, they will become
tunted, and never after prove profitble
animals. The feed for young

Paper Pillows.?The latest fad in J
Jngland is paper pillows. The paper
\ torn into very small pieces, not big- j
er than the finger nail, and then put ;
ito a pillow sack of drilling or light !
ickine. They are very cool for hot ]
limates, and much superior to feather ;
illows. The newspapers are print- |
ig appeals for them for hospitals.
Newspapers are not nice to use, as j
hey have a disagreeable odor of print- ;
r's ink ; but brown or white paper ;
nd old letters and envelopes are the .
est. The finer the paper is cut or
am, the lighter it makes the pillow. <

lectropoise has cured me ana I now
eep well and feel better than I have felt
