There ore very few ocean ioiis in life that cnll for hnr- ry. Perhaps no om mnn confront" in hid whole career more than two or three emer gencies that nail for instant action. It requires thp gen iu8 of insight and courage to deal with those But in the tust majority of instances we make a fatal mistake Vihvn we suffer the ardency of others, oranapporentcris- is, to lend ue into a conrse of action that tins not been ron e i d e r e d. It is wonderful what a capacity things that we consider urgent have for "keeping,'' if one is only nelf contnined and patient e nongh to iet them "keep." One of the 2mo8t successful business men we have tver known was famou? for his re fusal to give immediate de risions upon important qnes tiong. He said to those who rrged him that he had "to sleep over" things before he made np his mind. That did not mean that he took them home to worry about them, nut, that pe let them lie in his mird and germinate before he would decide just what he would do. At least, he gained the advantage of looking tit the mntter from several different points of view. And the point of view frequently changes the whole aspect of a situation. The men who'are in such a'drive' and hurry that they mnst make up their minds "right away" turn up with unusual frequeney'rn the bankruptcy courts. There is nothing lost by following thej sound maxim. "If you don't know what to 'do, do nothing". The Watchman. . Poor Spain is ir. a bad con dition. Notwithstanding the praises showered upon her by the Catholic press of this country, she is the last and pitiful representative among prominent countries that stood by the pope. What is the matter with Spain? The government is a failure at home and in its colonies. Mar rowneRs, religions bigotry, ab solutism and illiteracy have cursed the people. When oth er countries wee undergoit g the new birth of reformation in ffovcrnnsent aud religion, the pope was god -and king to poor Spnin, and now the end is inevitable. TheGubans nre gaining ground daily. Victory is not fully assured, but it draws nigher.-Central Baptist.

We have all learned atschool that Eth el Allen commanded the Brit ish at Ticonderogn to surren der "in tbe name of the Great Jehovahand the Continental Congress."
