ALLEN & COMPANY, WELDON. N. C. JONAHS QUEER SOJOURN. A well-known church shocker of Bos ton, who is associated with the Trcmont Temple of that city, finds tho presence of Ins wile in his audience the greatest ooslacle ho has to contend with in deliv ering a discourse. Her occasional dis approval of the utterances from the plat form outlines ilselr on htr countenance in a most dispiriting way, and tho lec turer tells of the following experience wherein a slip of the tongue was brought to his notice in this manner : He was getting along toward tho mid die of an address one evening when a glance in his wife's direction and the dis tressed look on the good woman's lace made him aware that something had g'inc wrong. It was with a very un comfortable feeling that ho finally brought his talk to a close, and as Boon as an opportunity was given him he hastened to her Bido. "Well, my dear," he asked, "what was wrong with my address to-night ? That look on your faco suggestid trouble of some sort." "Nothing ol great consequence, was tho answer, "only you lefencd to Jonah's remaining three days ond three nights in 'the whale of the belly,' and you con Irivcd to repeat the expression three times." Woman's imagination is olten her only consolation. Money talks to everything except a true woman's heart. HOW TO WIN A HUSBAND.

SWINGING ON THE GATE. I can see a picture painted. I can smell the drying bay, Whcro the busy mowers rattle through the lazy summer's day ; I can see the hungry plowboy wading through the billowed corn, With expectant ear to windward, list'ning to the dinner horn ; While unconscious of ncce sity, tho future or of fate, I make wondrous childish jourueys as I swing upon tho gate Strange how back among the many recollections of the past Memory will grope and wonder till it brings to us at hist Some poor, foolish, fond, remembrance, seeming hardly worth the nhile Yet somehow made wondrous potent, like a tender pacing smile, Fleeting, gouc, and soon, forgotton -yet remembered by and by With a swelling in tho bosoiu and a dimming o( the eye. Now my temples fast arc graying and my eyes havo sober grown With the years of varied happioess and sorrow I have known ; Still I sometimes hear the echo, when the evening lights arc low And without my darkened casement ghostly brc x:s ever blow, Of tho friendly, rusty rattle of the latchct as wh"n late In the hazy, In zy summertime wo swung upon the gate, A LASSIE'S LOVE. From 'neath your sweeping lashes I can glimpse ytur eyes of blno And read there of your love for mc jour love that is so true, And when I press my lips to thine I quaff the lips of love And seems to mo I seo the gates the pearly gates above. And just to know you love me, dear, is heaven sweet to mo, And basking in thy sunny Fmi'e, just looking up to thee, Gives to my jaded soul new strength, like morning dew to earth, And turns the deepest sorrow to the swectc't, soulful mirth. And when the world to me is dark I God your presence, dear, Gives strength unto mc so that I may straightway banish fear; Your tender wiles are freshening, your kisses never oloy, And just to know you lovo mo is to me a sweetest joy. And just to know that you are mine forever and for aye, No matter come the darkest night, or come the brightest day, To clasp you, and to lovo you, aid to know that you are mine, And to read your love in brigLt blue eyes to mc is sweet divioe. SENTENCE SERMONS. Sulkiooss is only sell fisli ne-a turned sour. Gilding the wajon does not case the springs. Many great souls have been lost by little sins. The religion that lacks sunshine is all moonshine. There is lot of diffenoco between foresight and fear, The reward of mastering one difficulty is to meet another. Relieve that a man is bad aid ho wil' not go back on it. The heavenly chariot cannot bo drawn by a olothes horso. If you cannot seo heaven hero you will never see it anywhere. To the hypocrito one man's religion is another man's revenue. It is good deal easier to pray for the prouoher I hap to pay for tho preacher. Piety is a good deal more than pity for those who are too poor lo bny clothes. No money is tainted worse than that which is kept in the cold storage pocket. GRANDMA'S COUUTSIIU.

Ono of the rarest gems of Christian character is tho sweet grace of cjnteut m nt. It may not have tho arrestivo splendor of righteousness, nor hush us with the subduing of purity; hut it is on exquisite ornament of tender grace, ond its sweetness fills every room of the house of life. Like the modest violet, it reveals its presence aid fragrance by au aliuosphcto that is laden with the sweet spirit of restfulncss ond peace. It is the delicate flower of trust and submission to the perfect will of God, ond its beauty is the smile upon a soul which knows that in the hand of our Lord every good thing is completely guaranteed. Life is not without its limitations. It has bitter deprivations and pathetic disabilities; tho bleak wind whistles sometimes through its desolations and sudden and starless dark settles upon everything, but the eye catches the vision of the hand of God, tho heart His voice, and the whole life rests itself in the unerring wisdom and the boundless love. And so life is liberated from carefulness and anxiety, the heart is at leisure from its own load, and distills the gracious sweetness of a beautiful content through every bit of life. Arc not the blessedness and tho min istry of life to bo found perhaps in tem pers and places which we have not al ways suspected? We havo given our wants a loose rein and they have carried us wheresoever they would. And many of us spend tiring days and restless nights in trying to overtake our caprici ous wants. Simplicity is ono of (he surest marks of a ureal life. Wauts have to bo disciplined and held in elronj and remorseless check. Cares have to bo carefully sifted, and anxieties scrutin ized, and multitudes of them banished to tho dark land of tho needless. Then there will bo room in life to live deeply because timply, blessedly because trust fully, and the peaceful serenity of our life shall be the power which wo con tribute to the world to aid its sanity, to re-enforcc its quietness and to re-establish its harmony.

One of the uiitriias which uro eviilnoo od by the insane is a desire to make a will. Of course these documents aio waste paper as fir us their legalijy is con cerned, but the 'ntiendiiuta and . doctors treat these documents with the greatest respect in order to humor the demented creatures. Se me of these wills would bo amusing if it were not for the sad condition of mind of which they are tho outcome. Ono man confined in an asylum left all bis money to the MiUlu of Jopau on condilhn that this dignitary should visit the giave of the testator once each year and plant chrysanthemums upon it. The remainder of tho estate wuh to be banded over to ud imaginary charity culled the Brotherly Love and Bounty society. Another lunatic in a Parisian Aslum left a will devising the whole of his es tate to the possessors of lloman noies residing in and near Paris. The reason for this was that ho had lather a hand some nose of this shape and was con stantly admiring it, A similar bequest wes that of a patient who left his prop erty to an attendant because he possess ed one of the ugliest nasal orgaus the testator had ever seen. One man, who was afflicted with the mania that he was sano, but confined in the asylum unjustly, devised a will leaving his money to the commissioners of lunacy to enuble them to engage a large staff of men for the purpose of visiting asylums and ascertaining if any were confined Better Fruils Ih-tter peach' Better Profits . fiDtilfi. ncirs and. terries ate produced when Pot.ifh is liberally applied to tin soil.

SPIERS EROS., WELDON, X. C. NOT ALL LOVE. According to a popular poet all that a woman desires is love. News Item. All sho desires is love, you say ? That shows how much you know ; She wants to seo the matinee And to the ciicus go. She wants a handsome diamond ring, She wants a rope of pearls; Sho wauls a poodle on a string, Sho wants some extra curlf; She wants a bonnet twice a year, Sho wants on Easter hat ; She wants to read her title clear Unto a stylish flat; Sho wants a four-seat motor car, She wonts a real Worth gown; Sho wants a trip to Europe, or iU least to Newport town; She wants a cask of rare cologne, She wants a diamond pin; She wants a carriago of her own To so out calling in; She wants the earth, the Milky Way, And halt tho stars above, And yet you havo the nerve to say That all she wants is love I A lIUltltlt'ANU. Tho terrors of the deep wcro perhaps never mere tbrillisgly set forth than in the description by a young lady who last year made her first trip abroad. She kept a diary, very much, soys tho New York Herald, like that of Mark Twain, when for seven days he recorded the foot that be "got up, washed and went to breakfast." There was ono important exception. When she crossed tho ohannel the ex perience was so trying that she felt im pelled to describe it. "I firmly resolved to stay on deck," she wrote, "although the tempest increaS' ed to euch a frightful hurricane that it was only with -the greatest difficulty that I oould hold up my parasol." It's a hard world for a man who be lieves that Providence owes him an easy jdaoe. SAO.
