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.

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 KENNACK SANDS.

She stopped and untied the rope that bound the bnndle to her back, and in a moment the boards were lying on the ground. Then she picked up the cap, put it on the old man’s head and tied it down With a ragged string of a handkerchief tak en from her own neck.

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 enough in bis movement.

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.

Plymouth, Sept. 12.-The county St onThf R ill L to ^ ect ft memorial taDiet on the Barbican pier to comniem. orate the departure of the Mayflow^. 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 quite unconscious of anything except the cigarjhe was smoking.—Youth’s Com- He May lie innocent. 9t.

'IfARDER DRIVING ON MUDDY ROADS. Country Gentleman Explains Hour to Do It (Vlthout Spliitfhtiic lTnsoii*. Every man who purchases a new wagon or buggy, and while the paint and var nish are yet freehand brilliant, will nat urally, desire to avoid having them splashed with mud and generally defaced by driving over the roads of the neigh borhood in a muddy season or after a loug and heavy rain.

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.

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.

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 tried salting butter in brine and packing ■ t^otn the churn, bnt doo B not faror this plan.
