Occasionally when we are
! brought face to face with siatistics
i about ihe rapidly changing events
of the day we are made 10 partial
! ly realize what a fast age we live in.
In fact it is so rapid thai this realiza
tion is only experienced seldom
but when it is we are appalled and
I made to start at the sheer facts.
A person today lives just about
ten times faster and more strenu
! ously than did his ancestors of a
j half or even a quarter century ago.
j New York has been termed the
; Paris of America and possibly just
i Iv so. It would probably be safe
to say that life in that city is just
about as rapid as anywhere else in
this continent, if not more so. We
eive below a few statistics on the
happenings in that city as they oc
cur day by day in succession.
From these facts we can faintly
realize what a fast age we are in
deed living in. They are as fol
lows: In New York Every forty sec
ond an emigrant arrives,
Every three minutes some one
is arrested.
Every six minutes a child is born.
Every seven minutes there is a
funeral.
Every thirteen minutes a pair
get married.
Every forty-two minutes a new
j business firm starts up.
I Every forty-eight minutes a buil-
! ding catches on fire.
Every forty-eight minutes a ship
- reaves the. harbor,
i Every fifty-one minutes a new
j building is erected.
' Every fifty-two seconds a pas
' senger train arrives from some
point outside the city limits.
Every one and three-quarter
hours some one is killed by accident.
Every seven hours some one
fails in business.
Every eight hours an attempt to
kill some one is made.
Every eight and one-half hours
some one is divorced.
Every ten hours some one com
mits suicide.
Every two days some one is
murdered.
The lime has come when "Injuns" must be civilized, ihey say ; !
Their blankets, paint and savagery must all be put away, As we waited in the L. & N.
They've got to have their hair cut short and wear their clothing plain, : (jepot at Nashville for the train,
And act like other citizens of Uncle Sam's domain.
At first the noble red man may not feel so kind, alack ! j
Toward collar buttons and a shirt that fastens down the back.
'Twere better that his savage self he never should assert
As he puts a fifteen collar on a stubborn sixteen shirt.
The new, made-over Indian is standing in the dawn
Of a triumphant future where he'll have to mow the lawn
And hoe the garden, split the wood and when the fates conspire,
Remove the snow from off the walks and tend the furnice fire.
But not till he's familiar with insomnia and gout,
Headaches and indigestion can he really boast about
His great advance; when he has had appendicitis, then
The Indian may think himself as good as other men.
We cannot call him civilized till he is brought to see
The truth of things concerning which no two of us agree.
His crude and cruel notions we must earnestly assail
He's got to take to prize-fights and must dock his horse's tail.
We'll teach him that he isn't "it" until he gets the rocks,"
And show him how to form a trust, and likewise, water stocks,
We'll make him know that wrong is right when cunningly disguised ;
He'll trade his knives for Catling guns when once he's civilized.
DID GOD SEND YOU?
She Had Faith--"Ciive Us This
Day Our Daily Bread," and the
Little Girl Believed It.
CASTLE YKNTEKDAY,
In the Valley of Conteniment, just beyond the Hills of Old,
Where the streams are always silver and the sunshine always gold,
Where the hour is ever morning and the skies are never gray,
In the yellow haze of springtime stands the Castle Yesterday. ,
Oh, the seasons that we spent there when the whole world was young;
The friends we've had as maid and lad, the songs that we have sung !
The echoes of their music cannot quite have died away,
But still must thrill the rooftree of the Castle Yesterday.
And the loving hearts we knew there in the time of trust and truth,
Surely still they wait behind us in the Pantheon of youth !
But the angel of the valley at the portal bars our way,
And a flaming sword forbids us from the Castle Yesterday.
When the pilgrimage is ended, may we turn then, may we change
To the vanished and familiar from the present and the strange ?
Who so chooses to his heaven I shall be content to stay
Where the ghosts of dead years wander through the halls of Yesterday.

some one began crying, and an
excitement was raised among the
passengers. A brief investigation
proved that it was an old colored
man who was giving way to his
grief. Three or four people re
marked on the strangeness of it,
but for some time no one said any
thing to him. Then a depot po
liceman came forward and took
him by the arm, and shook him
roughly and said :
"See here, old man, you want
to quit that ! You are drunk, and
if you make any more disturbance j
I'll lock you up !"
"'Deed, but I hain't drunk,"
replied the old man, as he removed
a tear stained handkerchief. "I'ze
losted mv ticket and money, an'
dat's what's the matter.".
"Bosh ! You never had any
money to lose ! You dry up or
away you go !
"What's the matter here?"
queried a man, as he came for
ward. The old man recognized the dia
lect of the Southerner in an in
stant, and repressing his emotions
with a great effort he answered :
"Say, Mars Jack,
robbed."
"My name is White."
"Well, then, Mars White, some
body has done robbed me of ticket
an' money."
"Where are you going?"
"Gwine down to Kaintuck, whar
I was b'n an' raised."
"Where's that?"
"Nigh to Bowlin' Green, sah,
when de wah done sot me free I
cum this way. Hain't bin home
since, sah.
"And you had a ticket ?"
"Yes, sah, an' ober $20 in cash.
Bin savin' up fur ten y'ars, sah."
"What do you want to go back
for?"
"To see de hills an' de fields,
de tobacco an' de c'on, Mars
Preston an' de good old missus.
Why, Mars White, I'ze dun bin
prayin' fur it fo' twenty y'ars.
Sometimes de longin' has cum till

"It's too bad."

A gentleman saw two little chil
dren before him on the cars, a boy
and a girl. Both looked tired.
They were poorly dressed, but
neatly, and were traveling alone.
Toward noon the little girl got up
from her seat, and presently he
found her kneeling on the floor,
with her head bowed in the cush
ion. Was she sick? Did she find
this an easy way to sleep? No,
she was praying.
"What are you doing, my little
girl?" he asked, when she got up.
"I was saying 'Our Father who
art in Heaven,' " she said.
"And what are you saying it for
now?" he asked again.
"I'm so hungry," she said.
"We've been traveling two
days," said the boy, "and our
luncheon is gone."
The gentleman wished he had
something in his pocket, but it was
empty. At the next stopping place
he went out himself and bought
something for the children to eat.
When he handed it to the child,
"I knew it would come," she said,
looking up with a blush of joy up
on her faci. "Did God send you,
sir?"
Yes, God sent the gentleman.
I'ze been I The child not see how the cars
were to furnish the "daily bread,"
and the little girl believed it. She
asked him, and God well knows
ever so many ways to answer our
prayers. You see, he let a kind
gentleman bring her some.
There is a small word in the
Bible of which some people ask,
"What does it mean?" The word
is faith. What is faith ?
It is asking God, believing and
trusting him. That is what the
little girl did; and that is the kind
of asking which God loves, and
loves to answer. Unknown.

You know them; tlicy are

names of the family are Head
ache, Toothache, Earache,
Uackache, Stomach ache. Neu
ralgia, etc. They are sentinels
that warn you of any derange
ment of your system. When
the brain nerves become ex
hausted or irritated, Headache
makes you miserable; if the
stomach nerves are weak, in
digestion results, and you
double up with pain, and if the
more prominent nerves are af
fected, Neuralgia simply makes
life unendurable. The way to
stop pain is to soothe and
strengthen the nerves. Dr.
