SEED THOUGHTS.
We are in captivity. Satan is our cap-
tor. Sin is the chain which binds ns.
This chain binds ns all, and none of us
are without sin.
He who is held in the devil’s bondage
is away from Ood. The problem is how
to get bade?
God wants us to come back to him. He
v bas no pleasure in death to the wick
ed
We must desire to return. God will
cot force ns to return against our will.
The* foundation of return most be sor
row for the sin that took us away from
him.
We shall need bis help to regain our
loet position. It was to render this assist
ance that Jesus Christ dwelt on earth and
died on Calvary.
Since we are condemned to captivitjebe
cause of broken law, we must have the
pardon of the Law-giver to obtain free
dom.
We cannot purchase pardon or merit
it, but we can have it freely by believing
in Christ and asking for it m His name.
The sinner is a long way off from God,
but the journey buck is a quick one if he
lakes the right road.
What a eracious God, that he provides
a way for His banished children, to re
turn to Him. Wbat strange children,
that so many of them have no desire to re
tarn.
There is no hope for any thing but mis
ery in the bondage of sin; there is certoin-
ty of happiness in the presence of Jeho
vah.
Cause and effects are nowhere more
sure; sin and sorrow are root and fruit—so
ere righteousness and joy.—Exchange.

tenth a reporter, would not touch liqaor

REAL KINDNESS.
A blind and crippled old man sat at the
edge of the icy stone pavement grinding
out his few tunes on a wheezy hand-organ,
and bolding in one hand a tin cup for per-
mes. The cold wind blew through bis
rags, and be was indeed a pitiful object.
Yet few of the passers by seemed to pity
him, They were a” in a hurry,and it was
too cold to stop and hunt for pennies in
pockeis and purses.
A sudden gust of wind blew the old
man’s cap off It fell by the side of the
pavement a few feet distant. He feit
around for it with bis bare, red bands, and
then with his cane, but he could not find
it, and finally began playing again bare-
beaded, with his scanty gray locks tossed
about in the wind.
PeoDlecame and went, happy, well-
dressea men andVwoman, in silk and vel
vets and sealskins, in warm ovei coats qpu
gloves and mufflers. But none or tbtm
paid any attention to the old man.
By and by a woman came out of an al
ley, an old woman ia rags and tatters,with
a great bundle of boards and sticks and her

A looking-glass is a mystery,an object of
interne interest, to many animals, and it is
often very amusing to watch their ma
noeuvres. Prot. C. Robertson describes the
behavior of a large ape in the Jardin dea
Plantes.
He was in an iron cage, lording it over
some smaller monkeys. Ferns and other
things had been thrown between the bars,
which the ape attempted to seize. At length
a small band -looking-glass, with a strong
wooden frame, was thrown it. The ape
got bold of it; and began to brandish it like
a hammer, when suddenly he was arrested
by the lefleciion of himself in the glass.
After looking puzzled for a moment he
darted his bead behind the glass to find the
other ape, which be evidently supposed to
be there- Finding nothin^, he npf Jtrent*
ly thought that be bad not been quick

he made the attempt once more.

DKATH OF MB. A. O. TURNER SUNDAY
■L— AFTSBNOQMr- ■
Another old and respected citizen of
Athens has crossed the silent river and
entered into bis eternal rest through
ttte portals of the pearly gates.
Mr. A. G. Turner, one of Athens old
est citizens, was taken sick Sunday one
week ago, and suffered intensely from
neuralgia and a bilious attack. The
weight of years bore down upon him.
and the aid of the kindly and careful
physicians availed nothing. .
Sunday afternoon the summons of the
Master came to call the sufferer to his
eternal rest. •«*'
Mr. Turner had lived in Athens for
many years, and-was t'rie father of Mr.
W. W. Turner and Mrs. J. M. Hodg
son, of this city.
He was an elder in the Presbyterian
church, and before man and God walk
ed an upright Christian life.
In his death the community suffers a
heavy blow,and to the bereaved ones are
offered the sympathies of their fellow
citizens.

A party of gentlemen, composed of
half a dozen prominent citizens, were
assembled recently in the smoking room
of the Art dab when the conversation
drifted to modern traveling conven
iences. and one of the number observed
that, while we had gained most marvel
lously in point of rapidity and loxory,
•we had lost the poetry of travel as ex
emplified by the old fashioned coach,
with its belled and caparisoned horses,
its flourish of. tasseled whip and the
merry winding horn. The speaker was
stopped by another of the party, whose
face had signified his uneasiness at the
description.
“Don’t, my dear sir!” said this gentle
man, who is a power in the flnnudd
des of Philadelphia. "Your reininis-
oence is very pretty, bntxyour mention
of the antebellum stage coach revived a
memory which is even yet a horror to
me, thongh it is over thirty-five years
old. I had an experience in one of your
lauded vehicles once that afterward made
me walk nearly a hundred miles to keep
frpm entering another, and to this day,,
whenever I am unwell or troubled in
any way, I am sure to dream of the* oc
currence, and my wife, hearing me
groamhg, will awaken me with the cold
perspiration flowing from my body, and
say, ‘Dreaming again of yonr stage coach
fright, aren’t yon/* And yet I flatter
myself that I am not more cowardly «*■**»
most men.”
The company insisted on the story, it
was given, as follows:
"As most of you know, my father’s
death followed doeeon the heels of his
failure In business, leaving me, his son
and only surviving member of bis fam
ily. without a penny. I left college, but
wholly unfitted for any work I found
tnyself on the verge of starvation, so I
left Philadelphia and started west, turn
ing up finally i n Virginia City. I was
pretty desperate by this time, and glad
enough to accept an offer made me to
drive the stage to Sacramento. It was
not a long drive nor an unpleasant one
thongh in parts rather dangerous, or at
least requiring careful drivingand steady
horses.
“I had made several trips very success
fully, when one morning 1 left Vir
ginia City with a single passenger. This
was a man of slight, delicate build,
rather undersized, too, dressed in heavy
clothes, which struck me at once as pecu
liar, for the day was a lovely June one.
Anotruy thing impressed me disagree
ably in my passenger— his eyes were a
bright, unnatural blue, with something
in their furtive glance that spoke ill for
his conscience or his wits, thongh I did
not think of the latter then.
"It was a very unusual thing for the
stage to carry so light a load, and I
found myself lingering a few minutes
behind time to see if more were not
coming, for I had a vague dislike, which
must have been a presentment, against
setting off alone with my queer passen-
ger. There was nothing for it, though,
but to go, so I started, hoping to pick up
others on the road. I did not, however,
and gradually I lost my depression,
thongh it waa a lonely ride without any
one to speak to, for, unlike most people
who patronized the line, the man
showed no disposition to talk or to ques
tion the driver, jo after one or two at
tempts to draw him out I let my gentle
man alone.
"After awhile, however, he began to
.complain aloud, though to himself, at my
management of the horses, but I took no
notice of his growling. We had by that
time reached the mountains and entered
a narrow strip of road along the brow
of a canyon, at the bottom of which
gleamed a tiny thread of silver, which I
knew to be the river. It was a sheer
descent of 700 feet, and I usually checked
the horses at that part of the journey. I
had done this, when my passenger stuck
hrn head out of the window and demand
ed if I meant to keep up. that funeral
pace, but did not give me time to an
swer, and thrust out his hand with a re
volver clasped in it
" ‘Get off that seatr he yelled. ‘I will
drive myself 1*
“I saw he would not hesitate to shoot
me, so climbed down with alacrity when
he advanced toward me, and, threaten
ing me still with the pistol, made me
get into the stage.
“ ‘Do you know who I am? he asked.
Well, I m the devil, and I’m going to
drive you to hell.’ b
^ “This speech and his looks, which were
those of a lunatic, and a dangerous one,
too, in his excitement, told me the truth,
and I can tell you I felt the icy sweat
break over me, but I climbed meekly (
into the coach and watched the mndruan
meant to my seat. ^I could only hope
that ho would still retain wit enough to
drive slowly, but the first thing he did
was to bring the lash down upon the
horses with a viciousness that made
them start into r. frenzied run, and then
the maddest, most terrible journey a
man ever undertook began.
The stage spun along like a crazy
top, the horseB galloping wildly, spring
ing wildly now and then to a cut from
the shouting driver’s whip, while, abso
lutely sick with terror, I had not strength
to leap into the road, as 1 made up my
mi ml to do tune and «g«in I would un
doubtedly have been killed ut the rato at
which we were going, and it was the
bare shred of hope, which theyv say
never wholly leaves ns. that kept me!
from springing but. Part of the time I
'crouched on the floor, hiding my face in
the cushions; bnt, fascinated by the ter
rible scene outside. 1 could not refrain
from looking ont upon it again and
again. On'one side rose u perpendicular
wall of rock as bare as my baud; on the
other, and barely five feet from where 1
looked out. was the canyon and certain
death.
“The stage swayed fearfully, and
every time the whip cut into the horses
they would swing it to the very verge of
the precipice, wheu 1 could look down
the wall and see the river’s gleam: when
I would throw myself against the oppo
site side of the vehicle. Once the hind
wheels literally hung over the edge for
the thousandth part of a second, though
it seemed an eternity to me, but wen-
jerked on to the road again, just as i
felt the stage drag back into the chasm.
“I remember screaming like a fright
ened child, and standing up in the
stage laughing horribly when I saw the
wheels back in the road. 1 doubt if the
madman on the box was farther off his
balancd than I at that moment. He was
standing up. though how he could have
retained his footing was a marvel to me,
and yeUing with delight, occasionally
breaking out into a screaming song,
varied by bursts of laughter.
"We had covered nearly five miles
when the road widened several feet, and
all at once I saw. as we tore by, the
facesof a group of men drawn to one
side to let ns pass. I shrieked to them
in a wild. cry for help, but as onr speed
was undiminished, made up my mind
the noise we made had kept them from
hearing me, or that it was impossible for
them to overtake us: bat even as I de
spaired I heard a hoarse cry, and looking
ont saw my lunatic’s body hurled from
his seat into the road, and the next min
ute felt the horses checked and finally
stopped. The door of the stage was flung
open and a bearded face thrust in. when
I threw myself into a pair of strong
arms and knew no more.
“When I came to I heard a voice say,
‘Give the chap 'nother swallow o’ the
stuff. Jim. Hols u-comin to.’ Some
fiery liqaor trickled down my throat,
and opening my eyes, gasping, I found
myself surrounded by a crowd 0/
roughly dressed men, but they, to my
^yes, had the appearance of angels.
They were miners, who, judging from
the driver’s actions, had guessed some-
thing of the troth, and hearing m3' cry
for help had stopped the stage. This
was accomplished by two of them catch
ing hold of and climbing tip over the
boot behind and over -the top, and thus
reaching the seat, . from which they
knocked the madman, and secured the
lines.
“On examination the lunatic
found to be only stunned, when we
bound him securely and took him h nf .fr
to Virginia City, where he was identi
fied as a prosperous merchant from Car-
eon City, who had recently loet hismind
through grief over the death of his wife.
I joined my rescuers in their search for
gold, and in six mouths we had struck
it rich, when, selling ont my share for
$50,000, i returned to Philadelphia, hav
ing had enough of the west and its ad
ventures.’’—True Flag.
An Obstacle.
A theological studen t who had preached
one Sunday in a city at a considerable
distance from the school which he at
tended wished to take the early train
back on Monday morning.
He was delayed in starting, and had to
stop on the way to get a check cashed,
so that when he reached the upper end
of the station the tram which had
stopped at the other end had already
started ont.
It would pass him, however: so he
waited, and when the baggage car
came along he threw his bag on board,
and with sensible precaution decided to
wait for theJast car before jumping on
himself.
The bystanders watched the proceed
ing with interest, and broke into laugh
ter as the rear car came along. There, on
the lower step of the rear platform, stood
a man who most have weighed fully
three hundred pounds, an effective hin
drance to any attempt toward boarding
the. train.
The young man fell back and waited
for the next train, while the obstacle
continued in his position on the steps

A MUD SPATTERED BUGGY,
8uch defacement is. in a great mnas-
nre, unnecessary. A certain velocity
may be given to the driving that will
prevent most of this mud splashing, es
pecially if the mud is thin and shallow.
If the horse is driven on a walk,or atx.nt
three miles an honr, the mud will ad

weight will cause it todrop on the spokes

be covered with it in onoadbering mass,
ns shown in Fig. l of the second cut.
Rut drive the horse a little ranter, on a
slow or moderate trot, four and a half or
five miles aii hour, and then the mud
which is carried up on the rim of the
wheels will not drop, for the increased
circular motion now given to them will
impart enough centrifug;il force to hold
the liiud to the wheel. The rim is the
only part that will 1*© muddy; the &pok*-s

course more than fifty year*.
But if the horse is now driven «ix or
seven miles an hour this increased
velocity will send the mod off and ail
parts of the vehicle will receive a copious
plastering. At a speed of eight or nine
miles it will l»e shot as high as the top of
the cover, and the driver will be liable to
receive a liberal share—Fig. R.
This is not fiction. A Her a heavy rain,
when carriage roads are covered with
two or three inches (more or less) of
partly liquid mnd. a buggy may be

to receive very little of it except what

learned by trial how fast lip must drive
for the occasion will pass the mnddy

A vehicle which becomes covered with

Details In Batter Making.
A Fort Atkinson dairyman, CL P.
Goodrich by name, gave the details of
his methods in making butter at a Wis
consin agricultural convention. It ap
pears from these that he churns three
times a week. The temperature of the
milk at the time of churning varies, be
ing in the surame- 02 ilegs. and in the
winter 65 dega. It is then washed in
water at 46 dega. and is washed in two
or three waters. Ho does not wash as
much as pome lest he should destroy the
flavor. In salting he uses only an ounce
of salt to a pound of butter. It takes
about forty minutes to churn. He puts
inenongb hot water to raise the tem-
perature to 65 degs. in winter. Heskims
the milk when it begins to turn. It is
set m shallow pans. Mr. Goodrich has

LIVINGSTON’S BILL
Not Considered In the Railroad Dis
cussion.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 11.—[Spe
cial.] The ‘‘Livingston Compromise
bill” died an early death. It was uot
considered as in the least degree a
compromise bill,” but a bill in tbe in-
n«? es £» Richmond Terminal
? <>rner bill will either be passed
or defeated, without reference to
any compromise. Mr. Goodwin’s bill
differs from Berner’s by allowing the
road fined if it violates the law. Eve
ry time a fine is imposed the patrons of
^horoad will have it to pay. The road
will lose nothing. The question will
come up next week.
Profewor Cook’, ffaih for Tree..
The following is, according to Pro
fessor Cook, an effective wash for fruit
fteft l i P u eVe , Tlt8 eger ,ayin S and WHS
toe newly hatched caterpillars as they
begin to tunnel the trees: Take 100
pounds of caustic potash, one barrel of
lime, one gallon of crude carbolic acid
two pounds of white arsenic or London
purple, which is perhaps better and cer
tainly cheaper, and water enonito to
make 300 gallons of the wash. This will
^i?? ael VL for trees; smaller qnau-
^ made in like proportion
Apply the wash with a stiff brush dw-
