ten the bitter struggle he had had with
himself. It is such a strengthening
thing to feel that we are comforting
a fellow being.
And as he sat by the door of Jim’s
shack singing hymns and plantation
songs to the accompaniment of the
mandolin a great sweet peace came
into his soul; and this peace breathed
through the music and comforted the
hearts of his little audience.
He looked up at the calm stars and
he thought again of his mother. And
those same stars shone on the face of
his mother in her faraway home. She
was a beautiful mother with soft white
hair and eyes that were soft with a
tender, trusting faith. The Book of
Books lay open in her lap and her eyes
fell on these words:
“Lean not upon thine own under
standing, but trust in the Lord with
all thy heart”
Then she, too, lifted her eyes to the
stars.
“They are shining on him,” she mur
mured softly. “And I know that he
has been in great danger and tempta
tion, but now it is past.”
She clasped her hands and bowed
her head.
“O, my Father, take care of my dar
ling boy and make him faithful unto
the end.”
And faraway the boy felt that his
mother was praying for him.

Old False Teeth Bought.—Many la
dies and gentlemen have by them old
or disused false teeth, which might as
well be turned into money. Messrs.
R. D. Fraser buy old false teeth. If
you send your teeth to them they will
remit you by return of post the utmost
value; or, if preferred, they will make
you the best offer, and hold the teeth
over for your reply.—Advertisement

In the editorial entitled, “Total Ab
stinence Best for the Great Majority
from the Cradle to the Grave,” in the
last number of the Christian Advocate,
we intended to say “total abstinence
for all rests on an impregnable founda
tion,” but the word “impregnable” was
printed “impracticable.” In another
part of the same paper a correspondent
referred to the Rev. Solomon Sharp, a
devout and able Methodist preacher
who flourished a century ago, as hav
ing originally belonged to the “Shark”
family.
EQUITY.
Until recently there was a partner
ship existing between two darky black
smiths in an Alabama town. The
dissolution of this association was
made known by a notice nailed upon
the door of the smithy, which notice
ran as follows:
“The kopardnership heretofor resist
ing between me and Mose Jenkins is
hereby resolved. All persons owing
the firm will settel with me, and all
persons that the firm owes to will set
tel with Mose.” —Harper’s Weekly.

cause the oven was not properly heated. No sad or soggy bread because the oven was not hot
enough. The thermometer shows when it is just right. Then too, it saves much fuel.
