ATHENS BANKER tUESDAY MORNING FEBRUARY 16 1892
Housekeepers Should Remember
The great success of the Royal Baking
Powder is due to the extreme care exercise'd
by its manufacturers to make it entirely pure,
uniform in quality, and of the highest leaven
ing power. All the scientific knowledge,
care, and skill attafned by twenty-five years’
practical experience are contributed toward
this end, and no preparation can be made
with a greater accuracy, precision, and exact
ness.
Every article used is absolutely pure.
Chemists are employed to test the strength
of each ingredient, so that its exact effect in
combination with its co-ingredien' is defi
nitely known. Nothing is trusted to chance,
and no person is employed in the preparation
of the materials used, or the manufacture of
the powder, who is not an expert in his par
ticular branch of the business.
As a consequence, the Royal Baking
Powder is of the highest grade of excellence,
always pure, wholesome, and uniform in qual
ity. Each box is exactly like every other,
and will retain its power, and produce the
same and the highest leavening effect in any
climate, at any time.
The Government Chemists, after having analyzed all
the principal brands in the market, in their reports placed
the Royal Baking Powder at the head of the list for
strength, purity, and wholesomeness; and thousands of
tests all over the country have further demonstrated the
fact that its qualities are, in every respect, unrivaled.

IN CONGRESSIONAL HALLS
Committees to Investigate the Pen
sion Office and Sweating System.
Washington, Feb. 13.—General Joe
Wheeler, of Alabama, has introduced a
bill in the house reducing government
j salaries of $5,000 or more 20 per cent.,
and of $8,000 or more 10 per cent
Fighting Joe says that living is cheaper
now than when these salaries were set
| Bills against cigarette smoking have
; been proposed. Mr. Watson has re
ceived a triegraro from John McBride,
; president of the United Mine Workers,
| and Patrick McBride, secretary, saying
that the miners’ national convention,
representing 300,000 men, has passed a
resolution -asking for the passaee of the
bill authorizing the investigation of the
Pinkerton detective agency. He was
asked to present -the telegram to the
proper congressional agency.
Telegrams from West Point to Moses
protest against both Williams, the
white Republican, and Bell, the negro
Republican. Some prefer Bell to Wil
liams. Conflicting requests are greatly
troubling the congressman from the
fourth.
The speaker announced the appoint
ment of the following committee to in
vestigate the pension office: Wheeler
of Michigan, Little of New York, Dun-
gan of Ohio, Lind of Minnesota, and
firoains of Pennsylvania.

- MY STRENGTH.
Be onr days many, or be they'few, from
any burden which God may see fit to lay
upon 09, our life may gain, not only con
tentment, but grandeur and nobleness. My
strength during all my life has been pre
cisely this—that 1 have no choice. During
the last thirty-six years God has twelve
times changed my home and fifteen limes
$s- changed my work. 1 have scarcely done
l||Uwbit I myself would have chosen. The
support of my life is to know that I am
doing what God wishes, and not what I
wish myself. My bretberen, the beat
thing often that could happen to a man is
to be thwarted in his favorite hopes. The
old song sings ihe hope that in lime of old
age we may find one face at onr fireside
whom we loved when we were vonng but
1 would say: Far rather than this—God
grant that we may find him there in the
home onr darkened life. Then all else will
aeem to us to be but dross. When a man
bas nothing more to lose, when his hopes
. are all beyond the grave, when we listen
without terror to the ebbings and flowings
of the tide of life and the rush of its storm
—then, after the night, to os the day will
Come back, and after the tempest a -great
calm. ]We known, then, that it is God’s
work, and that God loves ns better than
w e can love ourselves. We know, then,
that all onr life is guided by him, so that
we find consolation and contentment; and
if we have those two things with us—
consolation in all sorrows and content-
ment4h any loss—we have the richest
blessings which God can give.—Archdea

greatness consists in being great in little
thingE: How are railways built? By one
shovelful of dirt after another, one shovel
ful at a time. Thus, drops make the
ocean. Hence, we should be willing to do
a little good at the time, and never “wait
to do a treat deal of good at once.’’ If
we would do much good in the world, we
mast be willing to do good in little tbiugs,
little acta one after another; speaking a
word here, giving a tract there, and setting
a good example at all times; we must do
the first good thing we can, and then the
next, and the next, and so keep on doing.
This is the way to acccompksh anything.
Thus only shall we do all the good in our

GOD’S CHISELS.
“Look at the artist’s chisel. The artist
cannot carve without it Yet imagine the
chisel, conscious that it was made to carve,
and that it is its function, trying to carve
alone. It lays itself against the hatd
marble, but it has neither strength nor
skill. Then we can imagine the chisel
lull of disappointment. ‘Why cannot
carve?’ it cries. Then the artist comes and
seizes it. The chisel lays itself into his
hands and ia obedient to him. That
obedience is fath. It opens the channels
between the scuptor brain and the hard
steel. Through, feeling, imagination skill
Sow down tbs deep chambers of the artist#
soul to the chisel’s edge. The sculptor
and the chisel are not two, but one. It is
the unit wbitch they make that caves
the s*one.
“We arc but the chisel to carve God _
statues in this world. Unquestionably we
must do the work. But the human wo r .
ker is only the chisel of the great Artist.
The artist needs bis chisel. But the chisel
can-do nothing, produce no beauty, of it
self. We must yield ourselves together to
let him trie os. Ti.en bi
revelation God has made to ua in the Holy
Scriptures. It is to be feared that not a
few excellent people have very vague ideas
on this whole fubject. And recently there
bas been a good deal of very wild talk in
reference to reason and the Chnstain re
ligion The late Rev. Dr. Ubristlieb, of
Germany, in the second lecture of bis great
work on “Modern Doubt and Cbristain
Belief,” sets forth clearly tbe utter insoffi-
ciency of reason by itself to lead any one
to h true knowledge of God and tbe way of
salvation through Jesus Christ. Among
other things be says: *
“Reason by itself does not suffice f«t
attaining to a true knowledge ov G id. In
fact, it needs a light, to which ii mast be
suboidinate; a corrective against error, it
i eeds tbe help of revelation. We reman
in darkness and uncertainty so long as we
illuminated by nothing but tbe dim lamps
of our own reason. This has been con
fessed by some even of tbe greatest philoso
phers, such as Fitche and Bchellmg who,
after manifold voyages and wanderings
over the sea of rational speculation iami
contemplation of nature, have at lav
steerd a more and more decided course foi
the heaven which is found in a belief ot
revelation.”
Dr. Cbri8tlieb also declares.
“We maintain tbit no 'philosophy which
entirely rejected the aid of revelauoD, and
sought to comprehend the world arid G »1
by mere effoits of reaso-, ev r succeeded
in attaining to any positive, lasting results.
In criticism and in u gation philosophy
i made mighty strides; men have growl
er in pulling down, but not in building
up. Toe former, no doubt, is much easie-
of tbe two."
Tbe eutiie lecture reads as if it bad bei-n
written directly in view of the controv»rsy
or to-day in reg >rd to the Diace of reason
>d religion. We know of no publication
within the same limits so well adapted to
counteract tbe current deification of reason,
as this one pre| ared seventeen y- a s ago

TEN MINUTES.
We are but minutes—little things—
Each one furnished with sixty wings;
With which we fly on our unseen track,
And not a uiinute ever comes back.
We are but minutes, yet each one bears
A little burden <>l joy or cares;
Take patiently the minutes of pain,
Tbe worst of minutes cannot remaio.
We are but minutes when webring
A few ofj the drops from pleasure’
spring;
Taste their sweetness while yet we stay,
It takes but a minute to fly away.
We are but minutes, use us well,
For how we are used we must some day
tell; -
Who-uses minutes baa hours to use;
Who loses minutes, whole years must
lose.
WEARING OUT SHOE LEATHER.
“I have but one mAxim for you,” said a
successful and wealthy merchant to
young man who went out of his employ to
enter upon the study of a profession, “and
that is never to try to save your shoe
leather, but always to be economical of tbe
cloth that fortna the seat of your trous
ers.”
Tbe young man pondered this bit of ad
vice a long time, but he thiuka'that be
never fully understood it until he had been
at work in profession for several years.
He found, indeed, that “worn-out shoe
leather” was a good investment. It meant,
for one thing, keeping up with the times by
gaining information at first hand. If he
needed anv facts bearing upon bia pro
fession, he said to himself, “I can buy
them will: a little shoe.leather,” aud. went
out and saw the men who had tbe facts to
give him.
If be had waited for them to come to him,

BECAUSE HE DIDN’T THINK.
Two Sisters Burned to Death.
Greenville, S. C., F-b. 13 —Mrs.
Gregory who lived one mile from Well-
ford, S. C , while making soap, had her
clothing to catch on fire, and ebe was
burned to death. Her aister, who was
present, attempted to extinguish the
fire, and was fatally burned also. Mrs.
Gregory died in a few minutes, and her
sister is expected to die at any moment.
Once a little turkey, fond of her own way,
Wouldn’t ask the old ones where to go or
stay. ,
She said : “ I’m not a baby; here I am
r half grown;
Surely, I am big enough to run around
alone I”
Off she went; but somebody, hiding, saw
her pass;
Soon like snow her feathers covered ail
tbe grass ;
So she made a supper for a sly young
mink,
’Cause' she was so headstrong that she
wouldn’t think.
Once there was a, robin lived outside the
. door,
Who wanted to go ioside and hop upon
the flor.
“No, no,” said the mother; “ you must
stay with jne!
Little birds are saft st sitting in a tree!”
" I don’t care,” said robin, and gave bis
tail a fling;
“I don’t think the old folkB know quite
everylbing.”
Down be flew, and kilty seized him beforr
he’d time to think.
“Oh !” he cried, “I’m sorry ; but I didn’t
think.”
Now, my little children, you who read this
song,
Don’t you see what trouble comes from
thinking wrong?
CaD’t you lake a warning from theirdread-
ful fate,
Who began thein thinking when it was too
late?
Don’t think there’s always safety, don’t
suppose that you know more
Than anybody knows who have gone be

But when you’re warned of ruin

The Death Roll Has Dwindled to Smalt
Proportions—A Confession.
New York, Feb. 18.—William Sea
ton. of 324 West 129th street, a district
inspector, has confessed that he made a
false report regarding the fire escapes
on the Hotel Royal. . There was no es-
jape on the side fronting on Sixth ave
nue, the wall of which fell early in the
fire aud made the fact one difficult of
proof.
The fire commissioners were shocked
at the revelation, which tended to ex-
S lain tbe large number of fatalities, if it
id not make clear the origin of the fire.
They abruptly dismissed Seaton from
his position. They have no authority
to prosecute Seaton or the others who
tvaded the law.
Briefly, the facts art that six years
ago Seaton reported that fire escapes
were needed on the Sixth avenue anfl.
Fortieth street fronts of thp-fJuflding
and in the rear. Hyman J&rael, who
owns the building, was^jMtiffed .to put
up the escapes. He pit them up on the
rnrtiritA ffifmT iVlTTf and in the rear,
e order, so far aa sixth street ave
nue was concerned, was not obeyed.
Thus the inmates of the hotel on the
Bixth avenue side were left without any
means of flight, and while about one
hnndred and fifty got out by the other
escapes, seventeen lost their lives.
Seaton reported to his superior that
all the escapes had been erected, and,
until he broke down and confessed, in
sisted that his report was correct.
The coroner will probably order Sea
ton’s arrest.
The search for the dead in the ruins
of the hotel was concluded late in the
afternoon. No dead bodies in addition
to those reported yesterday, were found,
and the list of dead stands at 17. It is
not thought that it will be added to,
unless some of the injured die.
