This Oetolwr 12, J. M. SAUNDERS. Administrator. THE OTHER SIDE. / George Mansfield found many things that puzzled him. He went one evening, as he often did, to his best friend, Lvman Burton. Bur ton was thirty yean? older than George. Hi? hair was* a little gray, but his clear blue eye? were full of youth and peace. “I have always been told and often read that the Heavenly Fath er t ikes care -of His children.*’ George always stated his difficulties frankly. “Yes.” Burton’s eyes were turned to a spot of sun that lingered on the hill east of the valley. “Well it docs not look like it.” “Why?” He still watched the sunlight. “Well, it doesn’t. I have seen too many cases where the wicked prospered and the righteous were pr*or, where the evil were happy and the good wretched. It does not look as if religion helps very much in this life, after all. “Of course I know the argu ments,” he hurried on, as Burton turned his eyes to him, “about us not knowing what really is prosper ity, and that health and money and comfort are not what they seem. But that kind of argument does not satisfy —at least, it does not satisfy me. “Take the ease of old man Mon roe who lives down the creek here. If there was ever a good man, Mon roe is one. He is surely a faithful Christian, lie has always wanted to have money enough to educate his children, hut never has. He has prayed every day for years that Charley might get well, but lit 1 has not; lie gets worse all the time. Last year the lightning killed one of his horses —he had only two. This spring the wind blew down his barn, and his cow was drowned in a freshet. The family has always i lived on the ragged edge. I suppose they have enough to eat and wear, hut that is all. How do you account for a case of that kind?” ! “There was.a time,” said Burton, gravely, “when they did not have enough to eat and wear. They ! were hungry and cold most of the | time for ten winters —the neighbors had to give them food. That was in the days Indore Monroe became a Christian. He was a had man then, and could not hold a job, and wasted what little he did make. ‘"lt seems very good t< fir them to have a dry roof, three rooms,Yand plenty of good food out here where the air is clean and the world at peace. 1 have heard them thank God for it many times. Have you talked with him since the lightning [ killed his horse and the wind blew down tiu- barn?' “Yes,” answered George. Hid he complain?” “ v • ’ INo. “Was lie out of heart? ,-,,18 “No.” “Did he speak bitterly of his fellow men? Of luck? Of Pro vidence?” o v ) } 4l - • “Then you have your answer.” I Burton smiled thoughtfully. “1 don’t quite understand,” said | the young man. “You see, (.Jeorge,” burton ex-: plained, gently, “you are looking in the wrong place. The spirit works inside instead of outside. : When a man is born again, it is his spirit that is changed, and not t-he ; i world outside. “He has the same body and brain. It may Ik- an inefficient, body and an incapable brain; it ! may be a body cursed by. heredity and weakened by habit, a brain undisciplined, untrained. The spirit will help him make the best of that ix)dy and brain, but it will not make them over for him. He will still be subject to disease and | pain and failure as before. “The world outside is not changed; there will still do storms, pestilence and famine. But his at titude toward it is changed. “Instead of making Ids body and 1 the world over so these difficulties may he removed, the spirit makes the rial man —the inside man — over, so he can face them and con quer them by getting good out of them. When pain and misfortune come, they bring, instead of bitter ness and despondency, sweetness of I spirit and renewed faither. “And to know this, that the spirit has been quickened into life, that evil cannot quench nor disaster I embitter, is to possess ‘that peace which passeth understanding.’ ” Youth's Cantpanion. His Best Girl \ldd. Mr. June Langford i? in a peck of trouble. His best girl is mad with him and he can’t find out what about. When he has had tin much experience with the fair sex aa the writer he will worry when they are in a good humor, for generally a woman is either sick or mad. Hodges Mill Dots by Cracker .Jack, in Oconee Enterprise- Deposited in Advance. A young Scotch fanner, who could not read, came into a small country city directly after an “anti spitting"' ordinance had come into effect, and, as fete would have it, was walking directly toward the single policeman which the place boasted when the period of release for a. copious amount of tobacco juice became due/ The profuse squirt landed with a splash directly in the middle of the sidewalk, arid the S(*ot was sti frequently taken in charge by the copper and hustled before the police magistrate. When told the nature of the of fense lie warmly protested ignoraee of the law, but was informed that this did not shield him. At the magistrate's advice he pleaded guilty and was fined five dollars ; and costs. This totaled seven dol lars and a half. With painful dignity the young | farmer drew forth a wallet and ex tracted therefrom a ten-dollar bill, which he placed upon the desk and turned to leave the place. “Wait a moment, my friend,” called the olHeer. “Here is your change/’ jp “Nae, mon, 1 winna tak’ it,” coolv replied the Scotchman : “1. mac wiss-to hlavv my nase before i lea’e toun.’' —Jtldgff. . i .. •■Only II? Chickens.” The same thing that promts one ito say yes in answer to the query, I “Are you asleep?’ ’ may have in [ flue need the negro in the following | story from Life: It was a dark night, and the owner of the chickencoop, gun in S hand, was investigating certain sus picious noises he had heard “ Who’s in there? he called at the open wind *w. Erastus, inside, replied softly and reassuringly, “Ain’t nobody heah cep'iu us chick ens.” Quite Probable. It is evident that the young man who writes the news items in the Willoby Times wishes always to he on the safe side and exercise due caution in his statements. “When Mr. Lemuel Hawkins en tered the Ixslroorri on the ground floor of his.farmhouse one day last week, ' wrote the careful news gather, “he found that a cow, probably astray, had made her way there from the open door.’’ So many women are successful in running a house better than a man i can run his business because they do it without a single theory.
