A NAMELESS HEHO.
Miss E. 11. Colson in Inter Ocean.
Beside the rocky, road he lay,
Beneath the blazing noonday sun;
With age and toil grown thin and gray,
A weary horse whose work was done.
Upon his sides so gnant and thin 1
Were marks of many a cruel blow—
They fell apace. Ah! Shame and sin, r
That day He had so far to go.
His breath was gone, his strength spent,
The fiery snn was overhead—
As far as nature could he went,
Then dropped upon the roadside—dead.
The cruel whip had lost its power,
No more a tortured slave was he;
The great All-good that very hour
Had given him his liberty.
The lifeless feet so wide apart,
The spreading tail and low-laid head
Were stfil at last, no more to staift^
With terror at their owner’s tread. Ti! -,
Ami thus he lay from honr to hour,
The deadest thing beneath the sun;
A king that never knew his power,
A nameless hero—overdone.. —
At night two brother horses came
And, faltering, dragged his form away-
A loathsome thing of evil fame—
And only dead one little day.
And yet in life he labored well
In spite of hunger, blows and pain,
And did bis duty, who can tell
That he shall never live again?
He was nat human, no, brit more—
A man with all his virtues great.
We’d canonize; but evermore
A horse must work, endure and wait.
THE MINISTER’S CHOICE
BT WILLARD N. JENKINS.
Walk in, Brother Clarke, walk
in,” said Miss Emery, briskly. “I
was just telling Susie Adams, pay
youngest assistant, about the ser
mon you preached last Sunday
evening; I declare it made me feel
as if I had been wafted to heaven.
I try to do my duty by that girl,
bat she, only a giddy thing, Susie
is—but here you are standing! Do
be seated! I am so glad to see you!
It is a blessed privilege to have
yon under the shadow of my hum
ble roof.” And Miss Emery drag
ged nn arm-chair into the middle
of the room, and jerked up thej
window shades to admit more light.
“Run, Susie, and cut a slice of
the fruit cake, and ask Melinda for
some of that lemonade,” said the
lady, in a stage whisper, and a girl
who_ was trimming a hat in the
next room made haste to obey.
“I beg you not to send for any
thing on my; account,” interposed
the young clergyman, coloring.
“Ob, it ain’t no trouble,” said
Miss Emery, clasping her bony
bands. “And I want to ask you
about a passage in your last ser
mon. I always make a little ab
stract of your sermons for my as
sistants.”
The clergyman listened with ev
ident admiration to this pious sis
ter’s remarks.
“I jvish more of the church
members ' were like you,” he said
mildly.
“It’s only *my duty,” said the
milliner. “We’re all poor, weak
creatures. Bat here comes.Susie
with the cake and lemonade.”
As the young man glanced up he
canght a glimpse of a fair face
with golden hair curling about the
temples, deep blue eyes shadowed
by long lashes, and a slight, grace-
fill figure. -Susie Adams started
hurriedly back as. soon as Miss
Emery relieved her of the tray, but
the Rev. Leroy Clarke somehow
had an impression that the milli
ner’s youngest assistant was a-very
pretty girl.
The clei’gyman ate and drank to.
save Miss Emery’s feelings, while
she discoursed in a high-pitched
voice on knotty-theological points,'
'and made long quotations from his
last sermon.
. “Really,” he thought as he walk
ed away, “that Miss Emery is a
sensible and well-informed wo
man.”

“He’s young,” said the milliner
to. herself, “and his salary ain’t'

thought I should like to be a min
ister’s wife.”
From which soliloquy it may be
seen that Miss Emery had deter
mined to set her cap for the Rev.
Mr. Clarke.
The two girls, Lizzie Gray and
Susie Adams, were just laying
aside their work, late on Saturday
night, when Miss Emery bustled
into the room.
“Here’s a streak of luck; girls,”
she said. “Mrs. Grover isn’t sat-
isfieli with the hats that have been
sent herfrom New York, and wants
theed taken to pieces and trimmed
over. Light the large lamp and
get to work st once.”
“But it’s -after nine o’clock,” de

is more sensible than you; she de
cides to obey orders.”
“I've an invalid mother to sup
port, Miss Emery,” said Lizzie
quietly, and she sat sadly down to
the unwelcome task.
“As for yon, Susie Adams,” con
tinued Miss Ernerd, “don’t show
your smirking face under my roof
again. For if you do—oh, Mr.
Clarke, I beg you pardon—I hadn’t
any idea yon were in the store.”
‘I have been waiting yonr leis
ure for some moments,” said the
clergyman. “I tapped on the conn
ter to attract your attention, but
your voice was raised so high th#t
you did not hear me. I called to
ask for my volume of religious po
ems, which , is here. I intend to
quote one of the short poems in
my sermon to-morrow.”
“Oh, certainly,” said Miss Em
ery, in a voice of agony. “It’s a
charming book. Won’t yon—ahem
—be seated?”
‘Thank you; I have remained
here long enoagb. Pardon me,
Mi8s Adams,” the clergyman went
on, as Susie started to go by him
in her hat and shawl, “but I un
derstand that you are out oE a sit
uation. My sister said this niorn-
ing that she required a seamstress
for a few weeks. We shall feel
honored if you will come to us at
once in that capacity.”
‘Graciousl” gasped Miss Emery.
‘You have done well, Miss Ad
ams, in resisting temptation,’' said
the gentleman. “As for this more
experienced person who has placed
this temptation in your way, I can
only leave her to the reproaches of
her conscience.” And offering his
arm to Susie he led her out of the
store.
“She’ll be - his choice, I’ll bet a
cookie,” said Miss Emery.' “The
proud, scheming, hatefal girl!”
The Rev. Mr, Clarke had no idea
when he conducted Sosjg Adams
out of the millinery stor^that Sat
urday night, that he was offering
his arm .to his future wife; but
love is stronger than life itself, and
at the end of four weeks, when
Susie had finished Miss Clarke’s
dresses and was going to a new
place, the minister asked her to
stay.
“Bat there are no more dresses
to make,” said Susie. N
“Will you keep my clothes in
order?” be asked. “Ob, Snsie,
haven’t you discovered that I love
you?”
But the wedding bonnet did not
cbme from Miss Emery’s estab
lishment. A milliner in an ad
joining village furnished it.—Yan

Good Looks.
Good looks are more than skin
deep, depending upon a healthy
condition of the vital organs. If
the liver be inactive, you have a
bilious look; if you stomach be dis
ordered you have a dyspeptic look,
and if your kidneys be affected you
have have a pinched lood. Secure
good health and-you will have good
looks. Electric Bitters, the great

Colonel N. M. Rittenhouse, of
Baltimore, Md., has lately come
into possession of a family heir
loom. His father died some time
ago in Philadelphia, and in look
ing over matters of the-household
found a Brittania tea set of six
pieces made in Manchester, Eng
land, in 1678, brought to this coun
try by his ancestors . and handed
down from generation to genera
tion to the present one. It is stated
that many prominent men of past
generation drank ont of the teapot
of this set- There were no spoor.s
ju lise in those early days, and in
stead small tongs were used.
The brusque and fussy iifipulse
of these days of false impression
would rate down alias worthless
because' one is unworthy. As if
there were no motes in sunbeams!
Or comets among stars! Or catar
acts in peaceful rivers! Because one
remedy professes to do what it
never was adapted to do, are all
remedies worthless? Because one
doctor lets his patient die, are all
humbugs? It requires a fine eye
and a finer brain to discriminate—
to draw the differential line.
“They say” that- Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery and Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription
have cured thousands.
“They say” for a weak system
there’s nothing better than the
“Discovery,” and that the “Favor
ite Prescription” is the hope of
debilitated, feeble women who
need a restorative tonic and brac
ing nervine. And here’s the
proof-^
Try one or both. If they don’t

A good cement for mending chi
na is made in the following way:
Make a very thick solution of
gum arabic and warm water and
stir in a sufficient quantity of plas
ter of Paris to make a thick paste;
then, with a small brush, apply
the paste very carefully to the
fractured edges of the china, press
ing them tightly together, and
leave the mended dish nntonched
for two or three days.—New York

Cornelius Vanderbilt, the New
York millionaire, is the possessor
of a $1,600 whip—a driving whip

ivory handle beautifully engraved.
It is gold mounted and has the
name of the owuer artistically set
in diamonds. It has touched up
many a handsome hag.
For some mysterious reason an.
nexatiou seems to be a live issue in
.Canada at present, and onr papers
on this side, of the line are fall of
it.
Bat it is not so easy as some
people suppose to bring Canada
under our wing. In the discussion
now going on very little is naid
about England. And yet that pow
erful country would have to be
consulted, or she would be heard
from in a very emphatic manner.'
With her consent obtained, it is
plain that she would have to be
compensated for loss of .territory,
and it is doubtful whether the two
governments could agree upon the
amount without considerable bad
feeling.
Do we really want our neighbor?
Annexation would profit us very
little. With proper treaties we 'can
make our trade all that could be
desired. Then why should we cov
et this territory? The idea of tak
ing in millions of foreigners and
naturalizing them in a lamp is not
a pleasing one. These people are
not familiar with our institutions,
and their corrupt politics divided
upon race and rJigious lines
would introduce questions that
would give us endless trouble.
Another point. Canada is plas
tered over with land grant and
railway subsidy legislation. We
cannot afford to assume all this. It
strikes us that we are not ready
for annexation. Some- time in the
future Canada will set up as an in
dependent republic. Then, after a
generation or so, when the two
countries have grown more like
each other in their institutions and
and interests, annexation will come
about naturally,, and will cost ns
nothing. It will do no harm to
wait.

Cleveland has more than twice
many votes as Harrison, and
112 more than Harrison and Wea-
er combined. He has as many
votes as both, not counting a sin
gle vote from the solid South.
Had it not been for fusion with the
democrats,’ Weaver would hardly
have been heard from. The third
party has eight members in the
present congress. In the next they
will have but seven, aud four of
these were elected on fusion, tickets
with the democrats. Two of them
will vote with the republicans and
two with the democrats, leaving
Tom Watson’s party with only
three straigbtouts.
These are chilly figures in the
light of the big boasts made by the
third party people before the elec
tion.
The commissioners lowest esti
mate of t he appropriation required
for next year is $165,000,000. Com
petent judges believe that- the fif
ty-third congress will be called up-;
on to vote pension appropriations
exceeding two hundred' millions
annually.
These figures stagger the imagir
nation. No other evil which bah
grown out of republican rule is
comparable to this. No scandal
that'has ever stained the govern--
meat of any Country has equalled
this stupendous plunder of the tax
payers-in the name of gratitude
to the nation’s defenders. Thirty
years after the close of. the civil
war we shall be paying a million
pensions, or as many pensions as
there were soldiers in the union
army at any one time daring the
wan W« shall be paying, on ac
count of the war closed more than
a quarter of a centuary ago, a sum
of money three times greater than
the total annual expenditure of the
United States government at the
time when the war began.
But this is not the whole story.
Behind the armyof 876,063 pen
sioners there is a reserve force of
about half a million claimants
waiting for the machinery of the
pension bureau to “adjudicate’
their claims under existing laws;
and the pension bureau is muster
ing them in at the rate of two hun
dred thousand a year. And be
hind the reserved force of actual
applicants, whose claims are filed
at Washington, there is still anoth
er reserve, an uncounted army
waiting only for the passage of
new laws extending the scope of
the government’s expenditure.
