l-oa AnKeles. Cal., April L—Iu this
aernion the p run char deals with one of
the. familiar evils of our social and
business life, tho corse of BiiKovera-
ai>le temper, ami shows how thr mis
directed energy of those who are vic
tims of the habit may be transformed
into a blessing. The text Is Proverbs
xvi. 32, “lie that is slow to anger is
better than the tmighty and he that
ruleth his spirit thaif^ie that taketb a
city."
Popular enthusiasm is most easily
kindled when the admiring multitudes
are Allowed to bend the knee before a
human idol clothed in a soldier's uni
form. The most inspiring call fof the
common people is the bugle blast
sounding the cavalryman’s charge.

King Solomon recognizes thin fact in

who Hoy years later laid siege te the
city of Babylon and captured "It by
tinning the Euphrates river from Its
course and by marching wider the city

the victim of his own rage and chagrin.
Dependent on Reeh Other.
The brain in its action is very sUn
ilur to W:e organs of '.he Ixslf. All its
different parts are interdependent, as
l*ie lic;Vt, tire brain. Uie kidneys, the
luu.is and the stomach act and 'react
upon each other. When Ike heart stops
its regular steady pumping, then every
other organ languishes on account of
this weakness. Then the water of the
blood exudes through the tissues, and
dropsy sets in. When the lungs re/uo
to do their wort:, then the digestive ay
grains is .’’.ffer-ied. Stomach trouble
earn cause nervous prostration. Once
get the m; . es out of time and you
may have nervous dyspepsia. The or
gans of the body are like the under-
stones of a great archiigr bridge. Take
away any of tbe substonos and the
whole arch turn I Acs into a ruin. Such
is tlie interdependence of the different
parts of tlie brain. Let thv v.Ul pow
er oaoo lo .e its grip and the reasoning
faculty, or (he seat of judgment, is
gone. Then a n an in his actions an*
voids !>ecomes like a runaway horse
i taking tbe bit in his teeth. He Is Just
as apt to smash up against a stone
j fence or to leap a precipice or to dash
before ihe ounishiug locomotive as he
is to keep the straight road of safety.
At such times a man will do some
thing on the spur of the moment which
; he is apt to regret nil the days of his
, lif*-. lie is HI: * a drunkard drawing
! ,t knife lu a saloon br#wl. He is like
i general intrenched In some impregna
ble Gibraltar who deliberately opens
the ,ates and makes a foolish sortie.
He is like an army which goe 0 off and
leaves its fortress unguarded to lx*
I pounced upon by a waiting foe.

thereby destroyed forever all his own
prospect* of entering the White House

does not Injure his enemies nearly as
much as he damages himself. If you
would be great In your Influence over
others, you must be great in your pow
er over yourself. This means that, no
matter how great the provocation, you
must learn to suffer Injustice te si
lence. Ye* must learn to bare your
back for a castigation if you deserve
It and grimly bold your tongue even
when the lash is fetching the heart’s
bleed.
As Uog«T«xaaSU Temper.
The ungovernable temper is to be
dreaded and feared for a second rea
son. No sooner docs a man lose bis
temper than he drives from bis side
those who would naturally come for
ward as his dufemd«rs. He spikes the
guns of liose who would be his pro
tectors. All through the world there
is a desire to see fair play. If when
going down the street you see a big
hoy whipping a small bey you Mtural
ly take Lh* small boy’s part. And so
In this yreat'wlde world If the masses
ef people see that you are being abused
they vfill take yo^r side if y^u your
self are willing add ready te suffer Lu
■Uence.
If you govern your tosgue amid at
tacks of slander aud injustice four re-
euforcemeuVs will come from friends
iu the most unexpeeted places. When

lieutenant colonel of tlie Royal en
gineers lighting General Jackson be

“What were the English treops to do?”
was the question. The cemtnaudiug

One of those so sentenced to die was

into tbe matter and pass upon the ac
tion of the court martial. When Gen
eral Uosecrans received the telegraphic
orders he was furious. He declared
that if the officials at Washington did
not leave him alone be t would resign.
Phis pardoning policy of tbe president
was absolutely ruining tbe army.
What did Lteoten do? Did he dis
charge Uosecrans? No. After he had

Do you wonder when General Uosi*

, from executing Major Lyons? Mo you

uortli and the south? D* you not also

friends, you want to overcome your
enemies, do you? Thi n do it not with
a sledge hammer, hut with the power
of kindness. When a person hates you
or ill treats you. then systematically
go forth to win him over by love and
forgiveness.
I was never more impressed with
what love and kindness can do than
when studying tbe life of Lincoln. His
gentleness did more to save the coun
try nod g!vc us a reunited north and
souih than :i!' the bullets ovi r fired or
all the swords ever drawn. His policy
of conquering by gentleness was beau
tifully illustrated by an incident told
lu reference to General Bosecraus.
Missouri was at that time under bis
command. GuerrlLa bauds, for which
tbe Confederacy vna In nowise respon
sible, had captured riiree northern sol
diers, one a major, tbe other two pri
vates, and shot them down In cold
blood. General Uosecrans, to retaliate,
ordered that three Confederates, one a
major and two privates, should be shot.

repentance is an evident fact, she, I

for she is a goo* woman.” “Yes,” he
answered, "she Is a good woman.”
Bitter Word* a Car**.
I do not know the history of all your
nomes, but I do know tbte: Some are
homos In which it is absolutely impos
sible for peace and love to dwell. Why ?
Because la some of those homo* there
is a father or a moth**- or a sister or
a brother who has never learned to
control the temper. No sooner does
anything go wrong iu those homes thau
bitter words come to the lips and sharp
sayings sting ami lacerate, until life
itself becomes a miserable burden to
every one around them. God forgive
you, my brother, my sister, if you have
been one of those who, on account of a
vile temper, become a curse to all
about them.
What are the causes of an ungovern
able temper? There are two, and both
are directly or indirectly for the most
part attributable to the parents of the
man or woman having the vile temper.
Father and mother sometimes are too
lenient with their children when they
raise them. They do not make their
children obey. They do not teach them
that “yes” means “yes” aud “no”
nuaus “no.” When their children be
gin to cry or to pout or to sulk for
something tbe indulgent mothers and
fathers say, “Oh, well, go ahead aud
do it. if that will stop your cry!ug.”
The result is that many children never
learn to subject their wills to a high.*"

A ailssionary who recently returned
from South America discovered on the
route tv Orurotutofagosta a tribe of
fetich redskins worshiping Bismarck as
a g >d. Last year when the drought
threatened their harvest they offered
up prayers to their usual idols, but all
to no avail.
Their chief, having seen at an emi
grated farmer’s hut the picture of the
Don Chancellor cut out from an illus
trated German paper, asked tbe farm
er to make him a present of the (iriut, j
which request was willingly agreed to.
Thereupon tlie Indians brought the pic
ture in great procession to their tem
ple, aud. strange to say, welcome rain
watered tbe lands of tbe tribe. Since
that time tbe deity of tbe chancellor,
whom tlie Indians <-al! Rimbarko, is
firmly established.—Chicago Journal.
