If he had lived when knights rode. ade in search of bloody frays And risked their lives for ladies’ utilis and: for their words of praise, He would have been a swineherd or perchance some baron's thrall, For he had little wit and no heroic blood at all. They dubbed him ‘‘gawk” and ‘“‘dalt’ at school, and boys of half his years Were wont to chafe and bully him and cuff his ample ears, And he would take his bruises and weep o’er them apart, Nor dare to seek revenge, because he hada coward’s heart. And when the workmen in the mill made up their minds to strike This dastard held aloof of course and worked on, cowardlike. They told him that he robbed their wives and children of their bread. “My wife and child have got to live!’”’ was all the coward said. One evening as this craven ceased along his homeward way He saw straight in the motor’s path a little. one at play. The car came on at mighty speed ; each witness held his breath . And waited for the child to meet a horrifying death. Then something flashed before the car, and some one screamed with fright, And men and women closed their eyes upon that awful sight. O joy! O joy! The babe was saved, and where it was at play Naught but a coward’s lifeless form in man: gled fragments lay. —. E. Kiser in Cleveland Leader. - Base Bail.

Mr. Elsom made an earnest talk to the young folks and. many of them manifested an interest in their salyation. Last night he preached a strong ser- mon against whiskey drinkirg. He said the mun in front of the saloon counter is responsible for the man being behind the counter, for if there were no “buy ers of whiskey there could be no sellers. He referred to many differeat classes who are responsible for whiskey drink- ing—the moderate drinker, the private drinker, the social drinker, the drink- ing church member, the druggists: and doctors who prescribe it; &c , and urged all to stop and turn their influence against the evil. He said he had preached the two sermons here agaiust whiskey because he saw that it was the greatest curse the community had, He renewed his request for all busi- ness houses in town to close Thursday afternoon from 4 to 5. o’clock and everybedy attend service at that hour. Messrs. J. R. Moore and Wiley Brown have been selected to go amoug the business men and ask them 2% clese. It is hoped that not one in the town will refuse to do this. God blesses any sacrifice that is made for Him and the ‘ busines men can lose nothing by closing for an hour. The cottage prayer morning was another enjoyable services in fact allof them are full ot feeling and earnestness. The meeting tomor— row morning will be: held at the home of Mr. Ola Forbes. The meeting wiil close Thursday night and the last day should be made the best. meeting this Since writing the above Messrs. Moore and Brown have made the can- vass of the town and found all the mer- chants and business men willing to close up. We do not remember that this bas ever taken place in Greenville betore, all business closing tor the people to at- tend prayer meeting. It will stanc as a lusting credit to the town. Evcn the healthiest fisherman may have lines under his eyes. Close fisted men may all be classed tog2ther, but the generous man _ stands alone.

A Note of Prosper.ty. | In these! days when the voice ‘of tne calamity-howler is fre- ‘quently heard in the land, a cherry note like the following from the Clarksville (Tenv.) Leaf Chronicle has an effect that is _ traly stimu:ating : : “Our people are at work—all the people are at work. Look where you will, and business and activity ure seen. There is not a mechanic out of employment, and our merchants are all busy. The - month of April ran ahead of the “game month in any of. many years past, and thus far. May promises to outstrip itself also. Carpenters, brickmasons and “painters are all in demand, and ‘the new work of the plane, the! ‘brush and the trowel is every- where seen. New laborers are in the field. Wires ere being stretched and‘our streets are be- coming a perfect network. Other % communities may be suffering, but : ours has all the appearances of prosperity. here are . more goods being sold here than ever before, our merchants are vicing with each other to see who can have the prettiest and most at- tractive siores, and our homes are being beautified and made more inyiting. Clarksville is:as far ahead of the Clarksville of fifteen years ago as the Hast is from the West. ‘The lines have fallen to us in pleasant places: ours 1s a goodly heritage; don’t gay ‘hard times’ any more, Ap: propriate to yourself some of the fruits of industry and economy» and help to make a good world better.” EAR I The Ways of the World, Three queens and two kings will be in attendance vpon the Victoria jabilee—a full house.

In reply to Mr. Wanamaker’s complaints of the failure of the Republican party to restore pros- perity, members of the President’s Cabinet and other prominent Republicans ask the country, to “have patience.” It is hard to see, however, why the couatry should do anything of the kind after the circus-poster style of campaign which has be- come chronic with politicians who propose to make everybody pros- perous by increasing the taxes. In the campaign of 1892 the Spell binders talked of the home of the American workingman of | the fuiure as glorious with Bras- sels carpet and pianos, and in 1896 the country was given to understand that the Republican party had at last secured the advance agent of the prosperity through which these splendid dreams were to be realized. So far as it could be done voters were made to believe that prosperity depends not on thrift, prudence avd energy, but on putting some particular man in power at Washington. When the country does put him in, when the circus does come to town, when tLe public goes in to realize the gorgeous promises of the bill boards, it finds that giraffe is far from being forty feet high, that the roaring den of Jions is one small animal with the mange, aod that the monster python, swallowing an ox whole, is hardly larger than a chicken snake. It is very easy under such cir- cumstances for the ringmaster to call on the audience to be patient with the exhibition, but the audi- ence dces not see things from the ring master’s standpoint.—N.
