Railroads are of the prime factors in building up a enhancing value of property, and almost every man wants one to run by his door and have a depot on his land, but when he gets one, and it does not accommodate at all times and under all circumstances, vials of his wrath are poured out upon it and his bitterest mas are pronounced against it. The States, through which rail- roads pass, charter them for fit of the public, not for any special benefit of any private individual.

Without entering into a discussion as to the merits or demerits of this income, and they should be required much talked of demand, it is evident that it is not approved of by our wisest statesmen, or even some of our men who arc farmers and belong to the Alliance. In every State, where this has an existence, there is a of opinion in regard to this subject and there is undoubtedly a feeling of bitterness being to pay it as promptly as any citizen has to pay what is against him. The more railroads we have the larger the amount of tax they will pay, greater competition will be and consequently freights and passenger rates will be cheaper.

The world with the looks on and speaks in praise of such worthy deeds. We are taught in God's word that we may bestow all our goods to the poor and give our bodies lo be burned and yet have not charity. Real charity does not I mean alone to feed the poor at home or clothe the heathen of other lands. I Charity not, not not puffed up, no evil. must not only act but; think and speak with charity. Who would appreciate the kindness of friend who fills your pocket with gold and at the same time speaks lightly of you Would you call him able He who robs his; brother of the priceless jewel of a. good name, even though he fed the poor by thousands. Yes, he may give with lavished hands of this world's goods and it is nothing if he has taken from him that which he can in no wise restore. Remember the tongue. Many of us speak very thoughtlessly and consequently very uncharitably. Words are sting- blows and should under all cir- be prayerfully weighed before they arc sent out on their mission of good or bad. We fall in the habits of judging too much from appearances, and of making uncharitable about others. We our pastor, give to the heathen and attend church and Lord's day school and are in every way respectable, but in our words we forget that tic greatest all is Have you ever thought bow little it takes to ruin an immortal soul Charity no evil. How often do we see a person going wrong when it is in our power to save him But with bitter scoffing words we help burl him down to ruin and woe. If we had guided him by light and example hie feet would have been turned into the straight path and the falling friend would have been saved. Charity suffers long and is kind. Kind words don't cost scything, but they are potent messengers, bearing peace and joy. Do not laugh at the unfortunate nor sneer at poor. We are the light of the world, a city set on a hill and It is our mission to and not damn. Reach forth hand of charity to weak fallen; open a heart charity to the suffering; speak words of charity to disconsolate; act the part of charity to and with all and yon will thereby lay up treasures in heaven where moth and rust can not corrupt. Faith will end in sight, hope will end In fruition, but charity, blessed charity, will go and the more it is tested the better it will shine.

Star. Metes. The pulpit of the Methodist Church was occupied both Sunday morning and night by Presiding Elder G. A. he deliver- ed two most excellent sermons. His morning discourse was based upon the sending of the Holy Ghost by Christ upon His disciples, upon all who love Him and abide in Him. He strongly upon both the divinity and personality of the Spirit, that He was the third person in the Godhead, making the complete As a proof of both His divinity and personality he pointed out many ways in which the Spirit visits us, to warn when danger is near; to counsel and admonish that we may go in paths; to comfort and cheer when trouble or grief comes upon us. The believing heart could find much comfort the words he spoke. At night Elder sermon was a gospel entreaty from the text, I stand at the door and taken from the letter to the-Church of the found in the third chapter of Revelation. He begun by pointing out the of that church which caused John to be told to write the things which were written about it. They were living in a stale of taking no determined for anything. They seemed to have for gotten God and no longer recognized as their head and leader in all their enterprises and undertakings; yet they did not cut loose from their church and religion entirely for fear they might have use for them some- time. Their's was a dangerous poi lion and because of their lukewarm- and they were neither cold nor hot God said He would them out of His mouth. They bad shut up hearts against God. There men and churches to-day living very much in the same state as these There are many ways in which Christ is practically shut out of their hearts. The man who allows himself to become so en- grossed in business cares that he has no time for his religious duties is shutting God out of his heart; it is contrary to the teaching which says ye first the kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto It is best to take God into partnership with you in your business and consult Him in all your enterprises. Those who neglect reading their Bible, neglect their daily prayers, are shutting God out of their hearts. A man should never begin a day's duties first putting himself in God's hands and imploring His blessing and guidance through the day. The man who neglects to pay his debts is shutting God out of his heart. Go through the town and get the unpaid mer- chant's the unpaid butcher's bills, the unpaid dressmakers bills, and other bills, let these go to the judgment before yon and some of will stand a poor chance of Heaven. God Knows all our short comings and will hold us accountable for The minister illustrated various other ways in which men practically shut God out of their hearts and with an appeal to his hearers to heed the of the Saviour at the door of their hearts and open unto Him. We mention the above points because they ones which come so close to the everyday experience of the masses of the and this kind of sermon always carries vast good with its teaching. The meeting at the Methodist Church continues this week, prayer- meeting being held at a m., and preaching at night. Rev.

Every- body is invited to attend. The meeting being conducted by A. D.

This story is told of one of the lead- dry goods men of New He was carrying a heavy stock of floe mil- goods when the round topped derby bat for women became suddenly fashionable. The market flooded with them, and they were regarded as the only thing to be worn on the head. This merchant foresaw a great loss on bis stock of millinery, and decided to prevent it He first bought all the derby hats he could and then them extensively, offering them for sale at ridiculously low prices. Th result that the derby fell into disfavor among fashionable women at once, and he saved his market for bis more expensive goods. It is by strokes such as this and the careful watching of the market and feeling of the popular poise that fortunes are made by the few extremely successful merchants. Brooklyn Life.

RABBIT FOR MARKET. Bared from Ana New Zealand. is a set of sables lit for a denier; dollars seems cheap for them, does it not That is because they are made of rabbit skins from Australia. The fact is that there is hardly any far in the market at present that is not closely by the skillful preparation of these same long eared pelts. New Zealand also exports to the of yearly. Their pro- is one of the most important profitable industries of that colony. of them are shipped to cities, where they go through the necessary processes of manufacture fore being disposed of to the retail mer- chants. The art of coloring rabbit hair has attained such a high degree of per- that it can be made to counter- seal, otter, ermine or almost any other sort of fashionable fur. The skins are largely made Into felt hats, which are very beautiful and soft to the touch. When the fur Is long It Is sometimes cut In two and the finer or inner portions are mixed with wool. Various machines have been Invented for constructing hats of rabbit pelts, some of which distribute the hair with marvelous rapidity and evenness on re- metal cones. rabbits are skinned immediately upon being killed, the heads, feet and all the fat being removed. If the weather is fine the pelts are dried in the open air, but in bad weather they are hung up under sheds. When thoroughly dried they are turned outside in to pro- the fur from injury, and then they are tied in bundles of a dozen to twenty each and packed in bales, each of which contains from to skins. A little carbolic acid powder is used in the packing to preserve them from at- tack by insects. In this crude state they are worth from fifty to eighty cents a dozen, according to quality. history of the rabbit's Into Australia and New Zealand affords an illustration of the damage man may do by interfering with the distribution of animals which nature has chosen to make In the world. When Captain Cook, the celebrated navigator, first visited those countries he found a fauna entirely different from that of any other part of the world In Australia gigantic like the kangaroo, were chiefly conspicuous, while in New Zealand the only land mammals were two varieties of the rat and one of the common bat. then have done their beet to introduce there all sorts of creatures on four legs and two legs that could be brought from elsewhere. In many Instances these forts resulted most unfortunately. Several years ago some dozen pairs of common gray rabbits were imported for the purpose o supplying sportsmen with an object for the chase. The of this interesting experiment was made one of rejoicing, and the beasts were let loose with speeches and banquets to -welcome them. They multiplied so fast that the people did not have to wait long for all the sport of that kind they could desire. fact, they soon overran the country in such numbers that It be- came a question whether they or the colonists should occupy the land Great areas were entirely denuded of by them, so that the sheep died by millions and the raising of crops be- almost an Star.

Story or a Steer. A Kansas cowboy tells of a wild steer that has roamed the plains of the southwest for many years, unconquerable by the most daring and skillful herder. He says the steer killed a big silver tip bear in a fair fight two years ago. The combat was a terrible affair, and was witnessed from a safe distance by two cowboys. The bear attempted to creep up on the steer, but the latter saw him and at once gave battle. As the steer charged the bear rose to his bind feet and gave the ox a terrible blow with his paw, which served to stagger the beast for a mo- but with a bellow of rage the steer again rushed at the bear, and be- fore he could administer another blow had hit him fair in the ribs and sent him rolling on the grass. The fight then became fast and furious, and soon the bear was seen trying to crawl away from his enraged opponent. The steer was too quick for him, however, and headed him off, and at last gored him to such an extent that death ensued. Exchange. When France Bad He Sabbath.

The national which declared France a republic determined, at the Instance of archbishop of Paris, to abandon Chris- and to substitute Instead the worship of liberty, equality and reason; churches were quickly despoiled and civic feasts substituted for religious festivals.

There were a n fellows nested at the center t- The waiters bustled about, sot- before them of boas and Welsh rarebits, and golden bucks and Scotch woodcocks, the Utter a deli- composed of anchovy toast and poached eggs. Evidently they knew then- way about, and were acquainted with the slang of after midnight up town restaurants. The little tables around the room were also occupied, but a quieter crowd never seen at that hour of the morning. The party at the center table said never a word, and the men at the other tables simply watched them, with vacant, questioning smiles There was a convention of deaf mutts In town, and the dozen at the center table were some of the delegates. This was explained by one of the waiters, but it did not in the least lessen the in- all the other people bad in watch- the rapid finger movements of the party. The president, a handsome, clean cut faced man of thirty-five, with spectacles, got on his feet as soon as the glasses were filled, and while they were waiting for the eatables. He held his foaming glass in the right hand, and energetically wagged the fingers of his left His hear and for you, old man with their two fingers and thumb. All were smiling, and an eager, listening beam was in the eye of each. Bat, although the president finished up with what was no doubt a very fun- story, none of the party laughed. Their smiles broadened to grins, their fingers worked like lightning, but there was no Not even a merry of the glasses or a rapping of the table. This was what made it so canny, and kept all the other roisterers from enjoying one another's company. But R was perfectly natural. There were half a dozen college men present, and to them it was the most curious thing they ever to see twelve young fellows really en- joying themselves without making a heap of noise It may be a lesson to them. . It was the president of the deaf and dumb party who gave the orders to the waiter. He spoke slowly and sized each word as if he were firing it at the bullseye at the end of a shooting gallery. Tho waiter halloed back, and the president don't hear. None of us hear, but read your lips. Please speak The waiter put his mouth to the president's ear and began to bellow louder. The pres- smiled, and told the Joke to the other fellows with his left hand, at which they all laughed by flipping their thumbs against the two first fin- But the waiter caught on at last. And the dumb and deaf party had evidently a very merry, though noiseless, evening. Their fingers work- ed off many old chestnuts, no doubt, and scraps of poetry, perhaps snatches of song, yet nobody outside of their party was any the wiser. In the last sentence there Is a moral.

At last the powder and ball were found to be running short; at the same time the hedges surrounding the orchard took fire. A messenger was sent to the rear for more powder and ball, and in a abort time two loaded wagons came galloping down to the farmhouse, the gallant defenders of which were keeping a scanty fire through the flames which surrounded the post The driver of the first wagon spurred his no- horses through the burn- heat, but the flames rose fiercely around and caught the powder, exploded, sending rider, horses and wagon in fragments through the air.
