Spurgecn's Grt ndfather.
Mr.
Spurgeon loves , to tell the fol-
lowing good idory cn himself Once, !
when he was quite young, he was ex
pected to preach .at Suffolk, hut lie irate
an hour late 011 aeeotipt of the break
ing down of : Che -train.
On arriving-ht the c! nrch he frund
eervice going on. and, getting his head
ill at the door, he saw his grandfather,
a patriarch of .eighty preaching. His
worthy sire, catching sight of Spurgeon
elbowing his way up the -aisle, popped
and said, '"Here comes iriy gnmdthild,
Charles; hfr'll tell you about this tree
grace of God better than 1 can." "No,"
cried Charles, 4Vyou go on grandfather:
that's the grand old gospel I hear"
But it was of no avail. The old man
waited until Mr. Spurgeon got into the
pulpit. "Now he said, I have got s
far; look you on neve auu carry iwhji
wardi" Mr. Spurgeon did k. When

felt his coat tail muled and immediately

the grandfather said, "Sit you down.

than you db.f So the old man went on.
When he finished the head he said again
"NoW, Charles, von go on with the

The moemeiit for the prevention of
cruelty to animals in- this country,
started twenty-one years ago by Mr.
Bergh, has yjireud over the land, until
now societies, actuated bv a similarlv
J m
humaue purpose, are organized in
thirty-four of the states and territories,
and laws for the protection of animals
have "been passed in thirty-seven of
them. The New York Times, in its
comment on the report says: "Mr.
Uergh, during bis long years of service
in tiiis iiehl, has .been subjected to a
jood deal of wholly unnecessary ridi
cule, and the praise which he has re
ceived at UTe hand of the better classes
of society has been liberally mixed
with abuse from-those- whose brutality
he' has curbed in the honct dis
charge of his duty. T1ilj rhiicule and
abuse have passed hann 1 essl y from him,
but the commendation of a community
which owes him much will remain. 1
Mr. Bergh nuiy be congratulated on
having Lived through evil and good re
port, to see the effect ofdiis noble work,
and to know that after him it will go
on. He has live! down opposition-and
made ridicule ridiculous, and we trust he
may b? long spared to see the progress of
the great movement which U he set on

unspeakable -recompense which must

Treatment of Horse3.
The Xattpnaf Lire Stock Journal is
a paper devoted to the live stock Inter
est throughout the country. It is a
conspicuous and most gratify siyii, that,
this paper is devoting much of itsspace
to vne auvocacv ot kindness to farm i
animals, especially horses. The Jour
nal's articltiJare written with great in
telligence and consideration, the fun
damental idea being that cf establish
ing a mutual sympathy between horse
and man. The following sentences,
taken from separate articles, show the
line of argument, and appeal to self
interest as weil as humanity in the
treatment of live stock: "Domestic. ant
mals jire the creatures of circumstances
and the circumstances that make them
tractable, or, on" the other hand, frac
tious and difficult to manage, are main
ly almost entirely within pur own
control. Many men expect an untu
tored beasfcHo obey a word of command
that it lias not been taught the mean
ing of. When the animal goes to the,
right when -ihe man in charge wants it
io go itie icit, mis is la Ken as a piece
ot wilful stubbornness, and a harsh
word, a harsher kick or blow from the
whipvjs the animal's -regard; not for
doingfy wrohg thing, but for not doing
I that which it had not been taughi
to
f do
In the case of horses, thev are not
usually credited with more than a frac
tion of the intelligence and willingness
to obey th aft hey possess. A horse of
the most ordinary mental capacity
wilL in the hands of a competent
teacher, learn to perforin acts almost
beyond .belief,. The work done by the
average irofse is performed under a
feeling of Compulsion, as under ordinary
management there is no fuli feeling of
sympathy between horse and master.
The deportment of the master toward
his animals, generally settles the ques
tion of the animals,' -deportment toward
the master. Hence, it should always
be borne in mind that a link of suiti
cient strength to bind the horse,
through sympathy of feeling, to his
master, can better be made, and will
be immeasurably stronger if made of
kind words -and a lump of sugar than
if made of whalebone or rawhide.
Whim we think of the endless amount
of punishment the horse will stand
wituonc snowing resentment, and
ns
well-known h?adiness to
acknowledge
liis obligitions for kindly treatment, it
would seem that the average owner
and driver Would see it to his advantage
to mt'the horse half way in the mat
ter of kindly sentiment, and in this
particular feature jotue horses greatly
excel some men. Many horses, from
circumstance that have arisen in early
attempts at their niiuiagenunt, have
' conceived ttie loea that in man thev
have a relentless enemy, and under this
feeling they are ready to turn their
heels, use their teeth,, or strikp. On the
other hand, how quickly a skilled horse!
teacher establishes kindly relations with j
such a beast, showing his ability to!
nn iii ii jiuiv ueinmi niuiseir anu tne
horse about .as quickly as the smith
would form one v ith iron, and for the
use a great deal pore effective. This is
done in the only way that the horse can
be properly niaae to respond to the wishes
of the master namely by disabusing
his mind of the idea that he has an
enemy over him, and in lieu of this, at
least making the same effort to secure
his confidence as in the case of the
dog."1

T received when at school in A -.
One morning, us we were on our way
to school, one of our scholars was seen
driving a cow toward a neighboring
field. A gTifnp of boys m-t him as Iia
was passing. The opportunity for ridi
cule was not to be lost by, a boy of the
name of Jackson.

consisting of a go d medal which was

of its great cost as because the instances
were rare winch rendered its bestowal
proper. It w;us the prize of heroism.
Tiie last medal was awarded about
three years ago to a boy in th hrst
class who rescued a poor girl from
drowning. The principal then said
that, with the permission of the com
pany, he would relate a short anec
dote. "Not long since some boys were fly
ing a kite in the streets just as a poor
lad on horseback rode by on Lis way
to the mill. The horse took fright ami
threw the boy, injuring him so badly
that he was carrier! home and on-fined
some weeks to his bed. Of the bovswho
had unintentionally cause! the e.isaster
none followed to learn the fate of the
wounded lad. There was one boy,
however, who had witnessed the acci
dent .from a distance, who not only
went to make inquiries, but staid ioi
render service. The boy soon learned that
the wounded boy was the grandson of
a poor widow, whose sole support con
sisted in selling the milk of a cow of
which she w;.s the owner. Alas! what
could she do? iie was old and lame;
and her grandson, on whom she depen
ded to drive her cow to the pasture,
was now helpless from his bruises.
"Never mind, good woman,' sa.d the
boy. 'I can drive the cow.'
'But his kindness did not stop here.
Money was wanted to get articles from
the apothecary. '1 have money that
my mother sent me to buy a pair of
boots with, but I can do without them
for awhile.
O, no," said the old woman, 4I can't
consent to that; but! here is a pair of
heavy boots I bought for Thomas, who
can't wear them. If you would only
buy these, we should get on nicely."
The boy bought the boots, clumsy ns
they were, and has worn them up to
this time.
"Weil, when it was discovered by
the other boys at the school that our
scholar was in the habit oE driving a
cow. he waa assailed every day with
laughter and ridicule. -His cowhide
boots in particular were made matter
mirth; but he kept on cheerfully and
bravely day after-day, never shunning,
observation, driving the widow's cow,
and wearing his thick boots, contented
in the thought that he was doing right,

and self-denial was yesterday discover-1

Watson's feet seemed a prouder orna
ment than a crown would have been
upon his head. The medal was bestow
ed upon him amid general acclamation. !
The other boys who. had ridiculed Wat

conduct, and sought his forgiveness
and friendship. T.'ie Children's Own.

similar indications of tha thrift an!
building progress are apparent. Every .
body is sanguine -and full of energy;
and hope for the building up of a c m-j
mercial town. People go tii.rj d ii!y
for the purpose of promjting and lo-!

business. It is the prediction of every
one who is acquainted with the place
and the fertility of the surrounding

one man out of ten who are known not
to pay their debts, that i. making such
an effort? It is not the hard working
poor man, who in willing to live on

best livers in town. He is badly in
debt. Among many other thtifcfagj

very little. Si-vend of them are menUT
licrs of thePresbyterian church. Their
father i3 often out of a job, and they

his feet are on -the naked ground; btit
he is sober and industrious, ami pays,
his debts. He does not belong to' the
church, but the man who owes him is
a Presbyterian.
Here is another case, a minister of z
the Gospel. He wanted to visit the
British Isles; and so he got up the
money, and spent several months and
several hundred dollars in gratifying
that desire. At home be owed farmers,
merchants, teachers, artist, and nearly
Everybody else, yhen a bill was pre
sented he seldom paid it, or seemed to
care nothing about it at all.
These nre real cases and could only
too easily be multiplied. Charge it up "
to extravagance, or good natural negli
gence, or whatever else may sound
most charitabTc, but when brought
down to its hist analysis, the cxtrava- ?
gance which leads to living beyond
one's moans, and consequently on some
other person's means, and results in a
failure to pay just debts, is sheer dis
honesty. There may be no delilerate
intention to defraud. Ferdinand Ward

gro who steals the farmer's corn or his
hog, may do so with nothing but the
best feeling toward the owner. Is it i
any the less fraud?
A friend in North Georgia writes
that the Hardshell Baptists are about
the only -class there, who pretend to
meet their obligations this year. And t
why ia it ? Because their church diseip -line

Hdw Lonj Should a. Nervous Patient -be
Treated?
The qnestion of how long treatment
sliould e continued in a neurotic case
when no evident benefit is produced
has recently been raised in a Hamburg
law court. A medical man, says the
Isiucct, having as a patient a merchant
suffering from nervonsness,' treated
him by galvanism. ' Altogether hegal
vamzed him 415 times, but the nerv-
on-mess did not disappear. Then came
the matter of fees. The sum claimed
was $550. The merchant -disputed
this on the ground that the treatment
ought not to Imve been continued so
long, as it w is not producing any ben
jt, The court referred the matter to
the medical board, which gave as it
p;"uion ihat the doctor ougjil to hayo
sl.ed-the patient after some fifty sit
dngs, whether he would like to contin
ue them, ns it was doubtful whether
the treatment was doing auy good.
