I am so lonely, liomesick and discour aged, that I havo a dreadful attack of them" The doctor kindly replied, "I used to bave them very frequently before I be came a Christian, but now I am happy all day lonr,." "Well, doctor, can you prescribe a remedy for this troublesome milady?" "Yes," he answered; "take your Bible and go down to number m -street, J and there yu will find a man who is very sick. Go iu and read to him the one hundred and third Psalm, which I always call the 'bread and butter Psalm.' Then, before you leave, drop a quarter into his hand, for he is very poor." The young woman, in utter amaiement, said: "Why, the man wsuld thiuk I was very rude to come into his house and do such a thing as that. I really can't do it." She left the offije, leaving the irapres tiou that she would not go. But some thing led her on. By and by she fouud herself io a bare room, almost devoid of furniture, and utterly destitute of com mon comforts. On the bed lay an inva lid, face and hands emaciated, but with a countenanoe as bright aa the suo. He was resting in the love of Ood, She ap proached the bed and commenced to read the Psalm as directed. At first she read mechanically, but Boon the truth and beauty of the Psalm burst upon her, and she read with her whole heart. While she was reading, a woman came in, ere the Psalm wai finished the woman was in leap. Then she tolj the visitor that she was a stranger in the city, a drcs.u:akcr by trade, and that she knew nnone and ciuld get no work; so the young woman hauued her a d ill.ir and another to the sick man. In a lew days she returned with material for-a dress, and r c nniuendcd the dressmaker to friends. In two month's time the dress maker had so much to do (but she hired two assistants, and the sick man's wife had a pi'siiion as housekeeper until his recovery. And how about the blues? Does the youiii; woman have them any more? No; for lh love of God came into her heart while she was reading ol it to others, the sick man's mind was relieved, aud the poor woman on the point of dispair was delivered out of all her troubles Lids M.

AH OL D LEGEND. IIKAVKM OIVKS REAL BEAUTY TO Til I I.IKlt THAT BESTOWS TDK MOST AND II EST. There is an old legend that tells of a group of young women who were discuss-1 ing the q iesti.in wh isa hmda were most beautiful. 0 io declared hers most beau tiful as she lilted them dripping from the sparkling sire un Another declared hers in ist beiii'iful as she held them up slain mI by bjrri 'i she had been picking. Still another said hers w 're most beauti ful when they were fragrant with the flowers she had been pluckiug. While they were still discussing, there appeared among them an old woman leaning upon her staff. Her hand was outstretched as she asked alms from the group U io who u id taken no part in the little quarrel droppel a gift iuto ihe pleading palm. Then the woman asked them what subject had so stirred tlieui. When she had been told, she proceeded to give her opinion. The hand most beau liful was not the one j we led with spark ling drops from the stream, nor the hand richly stained by Ihe berry color, nor yet the one made fragrant by the breath of the fliwers, but the hand that had a gift for the poor. As she gave her answer the staff fell from her haod, the tattered garment from her shoulders, the wiinkles disappeared from her face, and an angel stood in their presence. Heaven docs put the highest reward upon service. Heaven gives real beauty to the life that bestows the most and best. Jesus gave the very highest servioe to men. More and more is it seen that He became "The One altogether lovely and the chieftest among ten thousand.'' Everybody recogniios the beauty writ ten upon service. Selfishness never car ries with it the marks that are found upon service, lieauly and sweetness breathe through the spirit aud the very persoo of one who thinks most of others. -E. tiii; NKiirr of death.

She asked them to raise the curtains an I let in the light. But, alas! the curtains were already raised audit was broad open daylight. It was the night of death that had come, and she Lie it u it. As sho kept asking them to let in the light they had to tell her the nature ut the d irkuess that was gathering about her. But she was not dism iyed With a sweet, quiet, plain tive voice she began siuging ber favorite hymn: Sun ol uiy soul, thou Saviour dear, It is aot night if thou be near; O may no earth-born cloud arise To hide Ihee from thy servant's eys, The eyes of all in the room suffused with (ears as the sweet singer's tremulous voice continued : When the soft dews of kindly sleep My wearied eyelids gently steep, Be my last thought, how sweet to rest Forever on my Saviour's breast. She bad often sung this song to the delight of ihe home circle, but Dow il seemed like the song of the dying swan, the sweetest she had ever aung. Her countenance lighted up with a beauty and radiance that came not from eaiih as she sang ooce more io feebler but more heavenly ilraius : Abide with me from moro till eve, For without thee 1 cannot live; Abide with me when night is nigh, For without thee I dare not die. Aod with these Siting words ihe awesl voioe was bushed io death ere sbe reached the closing lines unless per chance, inaudible to human ears, the words were oaught by Ihe angels on ihe ol her ahore Till, in the ooeao of ihy love, We lose ourselves io heaven above.

A GOOD COLLECTOR. THE TRAGEDY OF A DUN. AND HOW ST. I'KTKK TOOK A HAND i THE COLLECTION 11UHINEHK, He bad long been anuoyed by this particular bill collector. There was some thing about the dogged patience ol t lie man lliat irritatrd him. Ilia voice was soft, bis manner smooth, aud yet the soul of ihe debtor rose against bim. lie couldu'l be shaken off. Nothing save a full payment of the account would satis fy him. And that sort of heroic treat ment was contrary to the debtor's princi ples. O ice when he asked, "When shall 1 call again ?" the debtoi bad rudely an swered, "Never 1" "Thank you," said the patient collec tor. ' I will make a note of it." He did so with much gravity aod then added: "It is no trouble, I assure you. I will call tomorrow." And the debtor ground bis teeth in im potent i age. Oue day the debtor was quite alone when the collector called f r the ninth time that week, and it was only Wednes day. A Dime of fury leaped in the debtor's breast. His fingers opened and shut convulsively. "I will leave the statement," said the collector in his soft tones. It was the seventh statement he had left since the preceding Saturday. Then the debtor sprang upon him and shut off his wind. He left bim sprawl ing nn a chair and turning on all the gas jets in the room, huiriedly went forth. They lound the collector a few hours later, and the coroocr's verdict was death from asphyziatioD. Nobody showed any suspicion. It was merely regarded as a queer accident. The debtor went back lo his work, and his conscience never bothered him. Even when bouame .o die he mide oo confes sion. .But as he went up the narrow path he f it in his "hnstlv bosom that an cspla- D ii ion of the affiir would probibly be de al inded at the great white gate: He w is right. "I find, sal 1 N. l eler, with a glance at a bunch of memorandums that Hut t'red in bis hand, "that you once look a b uuau life." "It was only a bill collector, mur- m ired the newcomer. "Yes And the bill collector bad goaded you past eoduranoo." "Yet, yes, be had !" ' You felt that you were justified in re moving bim ?" "Yes, yes !" "All the circumstances appear (o indi cate that your provocation was great. The bill collector himself admitted as much." "Then I can go in?" "Yes. But wait. There is a trifling detail to settle first. When the late col lector passed io, be handed me this little account to collect. Will it be convenient for you to settle it today, or shall I leave a statement with you ?" With a hoarse groan the unfortunate debtor toppled over the low ooping, and a moment later a fiery splash far below showed that he had made a hole is the brimstone lake. Cleaveland Plain Dealer.

M DANGER IN TUB EARTH AND AlHf DANGBH EVEBYWHBIC," A Wise and Venerable Doctor Talks about Advanced Science. Ia s leading hotel, in a frreat city, a f unions and aged physician waa convers ing. Listening to his wise and (sententious discourae, were ft (Troup of well Ureaned men, evidently lawyers, business men and commercial travelers. My tirm belief, ia "that medical science is uertain yet to show that ftll die eases without exception are caused by invisible jrertna which are living organ isms. Here ia the ijerin of that terrible disease diphtheria. Here iathe oaeillua of typhoid fever; and here ia the atill more dreadful bacillus of tubercle which causes that most destructive of all diseases, consumption. This of that very common and supposed incurable disease, catarrh." " 1 wish, Doctor," said the traveling man, " that you would tell ue about catarrh. 1 have had it for years, and 1 am thoroughly discouraged." The Doctor answered. "I alarrli, like diphtheria, consumption, typhoid fever, and a host of other diseases, is the result of a microbe invading the blood and attacking specially the mucous membrane. This foul and most disffuating disease is especially prevalent in the United States and It iR rare to nieet one who is not, or has not been troubled more or less with it. liow often is he or she obliged to remain at home from pleasant entertainments, deprive themselves of many intellectual treats, from feur of the disugreeable odor arising from ca tarrhal affections. In its worst phase, the patient becomes loathsome both to himself and his friends. " I believe." continued this preat physician, "that the true way to heal ca tarrh is to medicate the blood. This can be done only by powerful alteratives which act as blood purifiers." Betsy A. Marett, of Manistee, Manistee Co., Mich., writes: Dear Sirs: For ten years I was a sufferer from general debility and chronic catarrh. My face was pale as death. 1 was weak and short of breath. I could hardly walk, I was so dizzy and had a ringing in my head all the time. My hands and feet were always cold. My appetite was very poor. On getting up in the morning, my heud swam so 1 was often obliged to lie down again. I had awful pains in the small of my back. 1 had a continual feeling of tiredness. My muscular power was almost entirely gone, and 1 couldn't go half a dozen steps without stopping to rest, and often that much exercise caused me to have a pain in my side. It seemed as though the blood had left my veins. The doe tors said my blood had all turned to water. had given up all hope of ever get ting well. I tried the best physicians in the state, but failed to get any relief. My husband got me a bottle of Johnston's Sarsaparilla. I took it, and then I bought another. When these had been used, I was Bomewhat improved in health. 1 continued its use, and felt 1 was growing stronger; my sleep was re freshing, and it seemed as if I could feel new blood moving through my veins. I kept on taking it, and now consider myself a well and rugged woman. I work all the time, and am happy. I am positive that the Sarsaparilla saved my life. The sick headaches I have had since childhood, have disappeared, and my ca tarrh has almost entirely left me. ' I cannot be too thankful for what Johnston's Sarsaparilla has done for me. I recommend all women who have sick head aches to use your Sarsaparilla; , MICHiaAH DRVa COMPA.WT, HBJTWOIT, MICH. W. M. COHEN, - - WELDON, N. C. A DIVORCE SUIT, WHY DON'T YOU KISS MAMMA? "A LITTLE CHILD SHALL LEAD THEM." The presumed wisdom of grown up humanity can often bend the knee befure the lesson of a little child. Men and women, self-reliant io their own petty bitterness, arc sometimes taught the error of their ways by infant lips. But for a chili), Mr and Mrs. Albert Stern would be living out a narrow, selfim, loveless life. The man and his wife had quar reled and, as is generally the eis it was a foolish quarrel. But it hail severed ihe two aud had brought them to the threshold uf the divorce court. They had been married abjut ten yeats and lived contentedly in New York until the wife last February visited Likenrood with some friends and without bcr hus band. While she was away her husband received an anonymous letter accusing his wife of all sorts of indiscretions The flame of jealousy waa fanned iuto being by the base charges and insinuations of the false witness and the husband had not strength of mind enough to estimate the anonymous letter writer at bis due worth. Oo the Contrary, he accused his wife and a bitter q larrel ensued. The pride of the misjudged wife as serted itself and she would give no ex planations. One word lead to another and both sought lawyers. The breach between two loving hearts appeared irre parable. The day that the case was to oome be fore the court the wife's lawyer, more kindly-hearted than many of us, induoed the contestants to meet at hia office.
