There was not ;i bettor railroad telegrar.h operator on the lino of the 'V. and W. i'o;ul than Ti:n Mtillisau, -ut for that rn vras cut of a job iialf of tho lint". Tim had bogr.n his arcer as a tni;ssouer buy and had ''"rl;t-:l from one place .y r.noz';cr ;;uil had reached the top. hut there had been iiiuny intervals. :.!e iini was that he was no hero Wot shipper. He refused lo believe that master mechanics, su perintendents, gm-r?.i managers and railroad presidents were better than other men, and the employe who holds to that belief cannot hold his job at 'he same time. Three times in five years he was ailed upon to contribute to a fund to buy an o.Ticial a silver dinner set, and ihrce times he refused and was dis hargeci. He did not refuse because he lisliked the man who was to be bene fited by the gift, but because lie be iieved that the of.iciaJ should be satis fied with his salary the same as he was. In the course of ten years Tint was fiiseharged seven times, and seven times he was taken back after he had ioafed around ior a couple of months. The term for it in railroad parlance is -uspension without pay. In no in--tanco was there cause enough to war ant putting his name on the black list ind Tim had an affection for the W. ind W. road and did not took for a position on any other. The seventh time he was taken back be was sent down the line to a vretch ;d little station on half salary. He had to be freight and passenger agent in! telegraph operator at the same ime. Tim did not object to jhis new ;:Iace. He knew that witiiiii a few iveeks be would he invited to come :Vi) liigher. There was mu eh chaffing n the part of other operators along he line, but Tim took it good us.t jrediy and went on with his work. lie had been holding this position almost two months when a crisis hap pened. There was an accident four miles up the road i'ioni his station, and an employe was sent back to io s-elegraphing. He found the office . losed. The hour for closing was nine rciock and it was now midnight. Per haps this part would have been ex cused, but that night Tim happened to be off to a dance with a crowd of roung people. There was an order forbidding him to go to a dance when n duty, and he was not supposed to -iitow when accidents were going to lappen, but he was held to be crim--nally guilty and told to prepare for decapitation. Two days later the superintendent srrived on a special train. He was diowiiig a committee of the Legislature -)vcr the road. On the same train was a telegraph operator who had come iown to take Tim's place. The spe ?ial had twenty minutes to wait that :he run east might be clear, and tie superintendent personally taw the ransfer of the station. Then he told Tim that be should never click an instrument on the line again. Tim replied that it would be no loss to :iiai and a few lwt words passed. As it happeued Tim had received his pay the day before and was free to go where- he would. What he did was to ros3 the tracks and take a seat on a "i!e of ties and wonder whether he should turn navvy or farmer. The su perintendent's train was o make a run of fifteen miles, sidetrack for ieven or eight minutes and then have a clear run of sixty miles. Tim could rear the new man clicking away after the train had pulled out and he heard the word come back that it had reach ed R and had taken the side track. Three minutes Itter he was on his feet and all attention. Darkness had fallen, and far up the 'rack he could see a locomotive head light. According to arrangements i here should have been no following train for half an hour. The headlight was three miies off when sighted, but Tim knew by the humming of the rails that it was a locomotive only and that it was running at top notch. He made a dash for the station plat form, hearing the call on the instru ment as he did so, but he had not en tered the open door when he engine whizzed by. There was a flash, a roar and it was gone. He saw only one man who was flinging bis arms about :;s if shouting. As Tim turned to the new operator l.e saw that his face was paie and he was in a collapse. His hand was on the key but he could not work it. "Out of this, you spalpeen," shouted Tim as the frenzied operator at Collins kept calling. "Out of this, and let me cce what's the matter on the rails?" Thirty seconds later he knew. It vas a wild locomotive which had pass ed him one of the fastest engines on the road and in charge of a crazy en gineer. "Wild locomoiive keep .Supe's train on switch," were the words sent along to Grafton, and, though steam raced with them, electricity won the race. The Grafion operator had only a minute to prepare, but that minute was enough. He halted the switch man Just as he as about to open the main lino, and fifteen seconds later tn runaway came along. The great en gine rocked like a ship in a seaway She seemed to gather herself and take a mighty ioap. It Tras like a blazing meteor flying along the rails, and men were pale for hall an hour after she had disappeared. Had sh struck the special train of three cars he would have ploughed her way to the tender. "Wild engine throw her off," was telegraphed down to Stanton, and at Stanton the flier left the main track and went ploughing along and burst her boiier with a sound that was heard for miles around. Hack to Collins, while she was standing on the track ready to be coupled to a coming ex press train, "her engineer had sot Oft a sick bed and taken possession. He had made a run of thirty-five miles but it was his last ride. They found sera jis of the engine, but not ieven scraps of the man. The day after the accident Tim was summoned to head quarters. "l"r. Mulligan," said the superinten dent, "I believe you were the agent down at Davisburg!" 'lp to yesterday yes," was the reply. "And then you lost your phe for not attending to business?" "For not being at the station at midnight, when I was not supposed to be there, zlc.'' "I'm! 1 believe we had a fev. words when the transfer was made yester day." "We may have spoken about the weather," smiled Tim. "Um! Well, let the weather alone after th, Mr. Mulligan. "It's a bad hnbil to discuss the weather with your superiors. I don't think the young man I took down will do for the place." "Am I to go back, sir?" "No. They want you hi Chicago, 1 believe, at your old salary, and I'll send someone to Davisburg who knows a telegraph key from a crowbar. That's all, Mr. Mulligan good morn ing."

He went there twenty-five years ago from Ohio, a young pioneer, apparent ly less we'd fitted perhaps for success in the competition of life in a country where water is i luxury than most of his fellows. The idea that now makes him a constructive successful business man was a Socialistic theory that co-operation was the only form of industrial organization with which he cared to have anything to do. And it was manufacturing that he 3ad set his heart on in a parched desert where, outside of the struggling little towns, the country did not maintain an average of one person to the square mile. Eut he said to himself, "Raw materials should bo manufac tured where it is produced." It was with these twe ideas matur ing in his mind that Johnny Bearrup, that is his real name went on con tentedly raising sheep until a year and a half ago he was able to start the factory which he calls the Rio Grande Woolen JJiils, one of the largest niau tuaeturlng establishments in New Mexico. Ad far as possible it is con ducted co-operatively. Most of the workmen are stockholders. Mr. Bear rup advertises in Socialistic papers, and sells his blankets and other wool en goods largely to the co-opera! ivf societies. There ore a good b:any Socialists in the United States. His agents visit co-operative stores and Socialistic societies. They sell not only blankets, but they sell stock in the mill on a 5 percent commission. He invites the stockholders to come and to work in the mills. For his idea is expanding. )t the Socialists will keep on buying his blankets, and the stockholders will keep on coming to his Utile settlement on the outskirts of Albuquerque, he sees no reason why his co-operative factory should not bo the nucleus of a co-operative town or why the co-operative factory should not be supplied from a co-operative sheep ranch as well ai selling to co-operative stores. IE he Were simply a visionary, his experiment would deserve only passing attention, but he is a keen, wide awake business man. He has the re spect and confidence o the other business men of the town. He is well liked. There is no apparent reason why the enterprise should not suc ceed as long as he is at the head of it. PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

It is not the possession of money that constitutes wealth, that gives the highest satisfaction, and awakens the consciousness of noble achievement, the assurance that one is fulfilling his mission, and that he is reading aright the sealed message which the Creator placed in his hand at birth.

To Make Table Mustard. To prepare mustard, mix two table spoonfuls of the powder with half a teaspoonful of salt, and a salt spoonful of pepper and stir to a creamy paste with equal quantities cf vinegar, table or olive oil and hot water. Have ready a poker, made red hot and thrust it into the mixture till the bubbling ceases. The result is a smoothness and flavor unequalled by the best French mustard. Candle Shades from Wall Paper. Very attractive candle shades of Any color, in flower or design to harmonize with surroundings, are made from wall paper and coarse net. Cut the net to fit the mica shade pro tectors, which cost 10 cents apiece. Cut the designs from wall paper, of which there is an endless assortment, and paste them on the net. If a girl is skillful with her brush, the designs may be Dain'ted with still less cost. The Art of Braising. Braising is U particularly good way io treat dry meats like veal, lean beef from the under part of the round or the face of the rump, the shoulder of mutton, heart, liver, tough fowls, pigeons or other dry game. The method of braising Is like the old time pot roast, only the braising is far easier in that the water in which it is cooked does not need replenishing and there is much less danger of the kettle burning dry. In each case the meat is rolled in flour, seasoned with salt, pepper and just a dusting of sugar to assist in the quick browning. Then it is browned in the boitttnt of a kettle or frying pari; Using some of its own far, drippings or butter as preferred. AlKr this browning process, it is put into a stew pan or braising kettle, covered with well-flavored soup stock, gravy or even hot water, with herbs and seasonings, then covered tightly and left to simmer gently for several hours. To Cleanse and Brighten Carpets. After carpels have been thoroughly beaten on both sides, the color may be brightened by the follow ing: Add one pint of ox-gall to a pint of warm wa ter; into this dip a soaped flannel, and rub the surface of the carpet well, rinsing is you proceed with clean cold water. Use care that the carpet is not made roo wet, and finish by rub bing witt. a dry coarse cloth. If pos- fcibie to do this out of doors, or if the carpet is laid, open all windows, as the ox-gall has an unpleasant odor. How ever, this soon passes away. If there a.'e grease spots'-Wn the carpet use the following niixturyn) tjuart of soft water; aqua AxnMonife, two ouncts: one tablespooufii! -saltpetre; one ounce shaving soSfc-. finely scraped. Mix v,e!l and ali- it to stand several days. Pour on enough to cover the spot ami rub well, then wash oft with clear water. AVhr-ii ink has been spilled on n carpet, dip up with a spoon as much as possible, then pour coid sweet milk upon the spot, and keep taking up with a spoon and pour ing on the milk, until the milk is only faintly colored with ink, then wash with cold water and wipe dry. Faded carpets may be restored by washing with strong salt water. The .Hotso keeper; Recipss. Virginia Waffles.

Daniel If, Overton, pastor of the Gre m. Avenue Presbyterian Church, .preached on "Confessing Christ," The text was from John xii. "Nevertheless even of the rulers many believe! on Him; but because of the Pharisees they did hot confess it. lest they snould be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God." Mr. Overton said: We have mentioned here in the text two of the greatest privileges and du ties of our lives, namely, that of be lieving in Christ, and that of confess ing Christ. John, in telling the story of Christ's work, is complaining that there were so many who though they saw the wonderful works Christ did before them, did not believe on Him. He jsplaius this by saying that this has ever been the experiences of the prophets. Isaiah, jne of the greatest prophets cf the Old Testament, had this same complaint: "Who hath be lieved our report? And to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?" He complained cf blinded eyes, and cf hardened heart?; and of stubborn wills. If these things were true of the prophets of the past; if this was the experience of them all, then it was not strange that it should be Christ's experience. saiah saw that this must ever be the experience of any true prophet that would come to this earth, even of that greatest prophet whom he expected, the Mes siah, the Christ, and so be predicted this expedience for Him, The greater His glory and the more marvelous His work, the greater Would be the oppo sition o Hiim Such experience would not argue against the M3S iauskip of the Christ, but in favor of it. That this was the experience of the Christ the verses preceding the text, and many others that we might give, declare. Often He complained of the slowness of men's faith and the dull ness of men's minds, and the stubborn ess of men's will. We read that "He marveled at their unbelief." He had many things that He wanted to say to them, "out their minds were so dull that they could not understand Him. He wept over the Holy City most of all, beeaiisa of the suihuoraess of the wills cf its perishing people. Vet even though this was Christ's experience, aa it has been the exper ience of every prophet. His word and His work did not return unto Him empty. Some believed, and followed and confessed.. Many oihers believed, as we read in the text, but did not con fess their belief. They were timid, hesitating, half hearied Christians. It s of such that I would speak this .Sunday morning. And leading up to this I would speak first of Leiieviug on Christ This, of course, is fp.udn. mental, and nil-important. "Without faith it is im possible to please. Him." Without faith it is impassible for Christ to be any thing to us, or to do anything for us. It is faith that links our lives to His that brings II'nu near, and makes liitn real, to ns. We irust believe in Him or Ave cannot reap the benefit of His great and glorious work for us. Every where iu Christ's message and in all the Xew Testaiuoiii faiiii is made a condition of the blesssd life. This is true of all life's relationship and it is srrpreuiejy true of our relationship to tied, 'lucre is Mule that Ua can uo for us r.niess by faith we open our hearts and lives to Hi:n. Faith is the channel that lets the life of God into the son of iiu-p. But this is what I wish to emphasize: Our faith must bd Strong enough to lead to sstuethinir. It must le:id to con fession, to service, to sacrlftVo. "Faith ful work is dead." The faith that sets ns to no task, and that leads to no changed v.i-.a better life is a false aud use:e: lieva I say that b inch of tl: ruse I lie faith in Christ is cf thU kind. It is a vague, visionary, general, iiaif hearted, spas modic faiils uittr ie;icis to nothing per maitent. auij takes nowhere worth while. It is a faith that was well rep reseiite.l hi i::a: crowd that followed Christ, cr that threw garmen's. or "a!ms in His way on that first Palm Sumb'y long iigo: It is ioilieved ty tunny ih?.'t there were many iii the multitude who did Kim honor that (lay. but whobefore the week emleJ' were crying witlTau other crowd: "Away with Him! Cru cify Hiui! Crucify Him" Their faith was futile because it led to no confes sion, nor consecration. There is much faith in Christ that is like that to-day; it jg spasmodic, hys terical, ephemera). It leads people to church at Easter time, or at Christmas, who rarely if ever are seen there at any other time of the whole year. It may be that such nave come to church more to show their new found faith in Christ, but wo will not bring that ac cusation ngainst them. We will give them credit for a little faith, even if it does not jo.'t except but feu one or two days of the year. Then there is a great deal of this kind of faith out in the world that nev er gels iuto the churches even Coy once or twice a year. It is a negative, pas sive faith. It has noihiug against Christj but it leads to nothing for Him. There are jots of. e6p!5 Wh will teii you, if you asked them, that they be lieve in Christ, and yet they are doing nothing for His cause or kingdom. They never have confessed Him pub licly. They nevtr have enlisted in His service. Xow faith of this kind is good as far as it g035j bii it doesn't go far enough, ft is belief than nn.belief and opposi tion. I suppose, hut it is sometimes iiarder :j deal with, .nd to get any thing out of. thin are these, 1 have thought Our faith, if it is real, and if it amounts to anything, must lead us to confession, and to consecration, to service stud to sacrifice, H is of thd great duty .atitl privilege of confessing Christ that I would speak especially this morning. We see iu the text that there were many i;i Christ's time who believed on Hiui, but who did not eoufesS their belief, nor show their allegiance. There are very iiian? such to-day, I believe, and it is to those and of those that I would speak. Why is it that ti!'j:J sirs so many timid Chris tians, and hesitating half-hearted Christians iu tbe worid? Why is it that there are so many men of good morals, and of good will, and perhaps of Christian characters, who are unat tached to any of our churches, and who, although they believe iu Christ, have never confessed Him in that way, at least. Again we find the answer in the text. "Nevertheless even of the rulers many believed on Him: but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it, lest they should be put out of the syna gogue: for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God." The first reasov. is, false fears. These timid believers did not confess Christ for fear of being put out of the syna gogue. The Pharisees had issued a de cree that if any member of their syna gogues should so much as confess that he knew Jesus he would be excommu nicated from the synagogue. They were afraid of this threat or decree, and so they did not confess Christ. They did not have faith enough to make them bold and fearless or to lead theiii to do their duly whatever might be the consequences. They took coun sel of their fears, and so they failed in their duly. It meant much to thein to lose their placa !a the synagogue. They knew that. It reaiiy meant more to tUein to confess Cbrisc oven if tliey 4id SB!? lost their place in the synagogue. They did not know that. They did not know that as we know it to-day. We blame them, but in blaming them we condemn ourselves, and the people of this day who do not confess Christ. There are very many to-day who be lieve in Christ with more or less faith who do cot make any public confession or profession of their faith. What hin ders them? Many things, no doubt, but among those many things this a false fear, the fear of giving up or losing some coveted position or pleasure, Let me illustrate what I mean. There was a family at one time attending this church quite regularly. I asked them several times if they would not like to mate a nublie profes sion of their faith find join our church. They always objected, and gave me some weak excuse, but finally they gave me the real reason. They said: "You know, we like to play cards some times, and we go to the theatre once in a while, and we don't think that a church member ought to do these things, so we don't join the church." Thus, for the fear of losing these things, they never made a public con fession of their faith by uniting with the church, They were wronc. and 1 told them so. They were wrong iu the first place, in concluding that a church member might never play cards, or go to the theatre without injury to his soul, or to the church; and theil they were utterly wrong in the second place, iu that they concluded that these things were wrong for the believer iu the church, and especially, in the third place, in believing that these things, even if they were wrong and bad to be given up. were of more importance than joining the church, and so chose these rather than the fulfilling of their faith by a public confession. I believe there are many like them who put some little thing, or false fear, in the way of doing their full duty to ward their God. And thus they stul tify their souls and prove false to their faith. There are many io say to me: "I would like to be a Christian and join the churchj but there are so many things that 1 would have to give up that now I like to do." They are wrong. ri becoming a Christian we need to give up only what ii wrong, and everv true person ought to be will ing to do that, anyway. And then the thines that we lote are as nothing com pared to the things that we gain. When we can say, with Paul. "For me to live is Christ." then we will count all other coveted things as refuse in order that we may hav more of Christ. Ave. even death will be a gain to us. for it will give its more cf Christ. "Godli ness is profitable, both for the life that now is, and for the life that is to come." Away, then, with all false fears and silly excuses, and let all who believe in Christ confess Christ. This is His own desire for us, as -we know. "For who soever shall confess Me before men. him will I confess before My Father iu heaven." But not only do false fears keep peo ple from the duty and the privilege of confessing their faith in Christ; there is another reason given in the text. It is false loves. "For they loved the slorv of men move than the .Glory of God." They wished to be thought well of by these Pharisees of the synagogue and to receive their praise. Their praise was someihiug real and present and tangible. The praise of Gcd for duty we'll done; that was far off and uncertain. They believed in this lowly Xit'.arene. They thought He was the Messiah, and, if He was the Messiah, it would certaiuiy be to the glory of God if they would confess their faith in Him. It would help on God's king dom ill the world. But if they should declare their faith in Christ, the Phari sees would be displeased and no longer praise and glorify thorn. And so they chooso the glory and praise of liia Pilar isees, rather than the glory and praise of Gcd. There are very mauy to-day who make that mistake.. They love tiie oraise of men, of the'ir comrades, more than the praise of God. and so they fait in doing their fall duty to God. They are nfraid of what some of their friends will say if they come out and make a bold confession of their faiih iu Christ. 1 believe this love of the praise of men. and couykvl with it the fear of what others wlil say, is keeping many from lack- well-known duty to ward God. Oh. let neither false fears nor faise loves keep any one back from duty, his full duly, toward God and His church. "lie St:rc Foundation.

" Most Powerful Microscope, Drs.
