Eglon did not expect to die in thnt drifted line place. Amid all the (lower leaves that like summer snow into the window, in. the tinkle and dash of fountains, in the sound of a thousand leaves fluting on one tree branch, in tho cool breeze that came up to shako the feverish trouble out of the king’s locks—there wits nothing that spake of death, but there ho died! In thewinter, when tho snow is a shrond, and when the wind Isa dirge, it is easy to think of our mortality, but when the weather is pleasant and all our surroundings are agreeable, how difficult it is for us to appreciate tho truth that we are mortal! And yet my text teaches that death does sometimes some to the summer house. He is blind and cannot see the leaves. He is deaf aud cannot hear the fountains. Oh, if death would ask us for victims we could point him to hundreds of people who would rejoice to have him come. Push back the door of that hovel. Look at the little child—cold, und sick, aud God hungry. It has never heard the name of but in blasphemy. Parents intoxicated, i stag¬ gering aroufld its straw bed. Oh, death, there is a mark for thee! Up with It into the light! Before those little feet stumble on life’s pathway give them rest. Here is an aged man. He has done ''his work. He has done it gloriously. Tho companions of his youth all gone, his children dead, be longs to be at rest, and wearily tho days and the nights pass. He says. “Come, Lord, Jesu9, mark come thee! quickly!” Take Oh, death, there is a for from him the staff and give him the seep terl Up with him dim. into and the the hair light, whitens where eyes through never grow the long of eternity. not years Ah, Death will not do that. DeRth turns back from the straw bed and from the aged man ready for the skies and comes to the summer house. What doest thou here, thou bony, ghastly monster, amid this waving grass and under this sun light sifting through the tree branches? Children are at play. How quickly their feet go aud their locks toss In the wind. Father and moth¬ er stand at the side of the It room looking on, possible enjoying that their the wolf glee. should does not break seem ever luto that fold and carry off a lamb. Mean¬ while an old archer stands looking through the thicket. He points his arrow at the brightest of the group—he is a sura marksman—the bow bends, the arrow spehdst Hush now. The quick feet have stopped and the locks toss no more in the wind. Laughter has gone out of the hall. Here is a father in midlife. His coming home At night is the sigual door, for mirth. there The children rush to the aud are books on the evening stand, and the hours pass away on glad feet. TUere is nothing wanting in that home. Religion is there and sacrifices on the altar morning and night. You look in that household happier. and say, “I cannot think of anything I do not really believe the world is so sad a place as some people describe It to he.” The scene changes. Father is sick. The doors must be kept shut. The deathwatch chirps dolefully on the hearth. The chil¬ dren whisper and walk softly where ouce they romped. Passing the house late at night, yon see the quick glancing, of Death lights from room to room. It Is all over! in the summer house! Here is au think aged mother—aged, but not infirm. You you will have the joy of caring for her wants a good while yet. As she goes from house to house, to children and grandchildren, her coming is a drop¬ ping of sunlight lu the dwelling. Your children see her coming “Grandmother's through the lane, and-they cry, come!” Care for you has marked upon her faoe with many a deep wrinkle, and her back stoops with carrying your burdens. Some day she is very quiet. She says she is not sick, but something tells you you will not mil ch longer have a mother. She will sit with you uo more at the table nor at the hearth. Her soul goes out so gently its you do not exactly know the moment of go¬ ing. Fold tho hands that have done so many kindnesses for you right over the heart that has beat with love toward you since before you were born. Let the pil¬ grim rest. She is weary. Death in the summer house! Gather about us what we will of comfort and luxury. When the pale messenger comes, he does not stop to look at the architecture of the house before he comes in, nor, entering, does he wait to ex¬ amine the pictures we have gathered on the wall, or, bending over your pillow, he does not stop to see whether there is color. In the cheek or gentleness in the eye or intelligence in the brow. But what of that? Must we stand forever mourning among the graves of out dead? No! Not The people in Bengal bring cages of birds to the graves of their dead, and then they open the cages and the birds go singing heavenward. So I would bring to the graves of your dead all bright thoughts and congratulations and bid them sing of victory and re¬ demption. I stamp on tho bottom of the grave, and it breaks through into The the light and the glory of heaven. ancients used to think that the straits entering the Red sea were very dan¬ gerous places, and they supposed thnt the wrecked that have gone through those straits would be destroyed, and they were in the habit of putting on weeds of mourn¬ ing for those who hnd gone on that voy¬ age, as though they were actually dead. Do you know what they called those straits? They called them the “Gate of Tears." After the sharpest winter the spring dis¬ mounts from the shoulder of a southern gale and puts Its warm hand upon the earth, and in its palm there comes tho grass, and there comes the flowers, and God reads over the poetry of bird and brook and bloom and pronounces it very good. What, my friends, if every winter had not its spring, and every night its day, and every gloom its glow, and every bitter now Its sweet hereafter! If you have bebn on the sea, you know, as the ship passes In the night, there is a phosphorescent track left behind it, and as the water rolls up they toss with unimaginable splendor.

The train stopped and the man was taken out Into the asylum of gloom. to waste The away perhaps through years culprit. The outraged sec¬ ond passenger was a law had seized ou him. As the car jolted the ohaf ns rattled. On his face were crime, deptavttv and despair. The train halted,and he was taken out to the penitentiary, There to which he bad been condemned. was the third passenger, under, far different circumstances. She was a bride. Every hour was as gay as a marriage bell. Life glittered and beckoned. Her companion The was taking her to her father’s house. train halted. TUo old man was there to welcome her to her new home, and his white locks snowed down upon her as he sealed his word with a father’s kiss. Quick¬ ly we fly toward eternity. Wo will soon be there. Some leave this life condemned cul¬ prits, cod they refuse to pardon. Oh, may it be with us that, leaving this fleeting life for the next, we may find our Father ready to greet us to our new home with Him ever! That will ha a marriage banquet! Father s welcome!

French and Our Own Army Mortality. The statistics of mortality among the French troops, recently published by M. Noel in the Re^ue Seientiflque, show that the death rate of the troops in France amounts to O.OS; in Algiers, 12.27, and in the colonies, tQ 42.95 per cent. When we compare these statistics of an army at peace, and those of the mortality rate among our own soldiers In the war with Spain, which was something like 2 per cent., including those who fell in battle as well as those who succumbeu to disease, it Is only fair to ask whether the great outcry against the excessive death rate in our own armies is wholly war¬ ranted.—Medical Record.

A reporter who spent some time re¬ cently among the Pennsylvania Ger¬ mans of Lancaster County discovered what will prohably be to most people a distinctly new use for sauerkraut, a native production of old Lancaster, and a staple article of food. He had called to see an old friend who keeps a dairy, and found the dairyman In the act of taking great bunches of succu¬ lent cabbage from a barrel in the cel¬ lar. The odor pervaded the neigh borhood, and made glad, the nostrils of every true and loyar Pennsylvania “Dutchman” within a distance of about half a mile. The reporter was astonished when the dairyman picked up a .bucketful of sauerkraut aud car¬ ried it to his cow stables. The second nnirnar in the long row of stalls was a big, strong-boned cow. Her head was hanging low under the mauger, although there was a plentiful supply of hay in the rack above. Her ears had a dejected droop, and her eyes were half closed. She was evidently a very sick cow at a time when she should have been in good spirits, for among the Pennsylvania Germans It Is still a popular belief that on Christ¬ mas Eve the cows in their stalls may be heard to talk to each other of the ,-reat event the day commemorates. The bucketful of sauerkraut was dumped into, the manger. The cow, by some peculiar system of feeling, first gave evidence of her appreciation by slowly switching her tail, which had before hung limp and lifeless. Than she raised her head, poked her great muzzle into the kraut, and slowly be¬ gan to munch the stuff. Fifteen min¬ utes later she looked quite happy. She had eatou all the kraut, and was tak¬ ing great mouthfuls of the hay. The dairyman said sauerkraut had long been known as one of the best things in the world to give a sick cow an ap¬ petite.

It is due to its presence at the entrance windpipe that all liquid medicines, no matter in what form they are administered or how minutely divided by 9prnys or atomizers, are prevented from entering the bronchial tubes or lungs; yet, if it were not for this little valve, liquids and food would enter these passages and cause instant strangulation and death. The epiglottis is always open to permit tho passage of air to the lungs, but so constructed that the slightest contraction of the throat causes it to close over the opening to the windpipe, and prevent the least drop of moisture tho from entering the passages which lead to the lungs. Try to breathe and swallow at same time and you will see how perfectly this little valve does its work. Is it any wonder, then, that the number of persons afflloted with Catarrh, Bronchitis and Consumption have steadily increased every year, and that the medical profession should have become excited over the disoovery of a dry air germicide, the first ever found, that can be car¬ ried to all parts of the head, throat, and lungs in tbe air you breathe? No other treat¬ ment or medicine has ever created such a profound interest among the doctors, and this interest is being increased hourly by the wonderful recoveries made under their own eyes. Not alone among the medical profession has this been felt, but hundreds of thousands of men and women throughout the United States, through free treatments given, andinflu enced by the knowledge that their money would be returned in oase of failure, have testad this new remedy, been cured, and are to-day recommending “HYOMEI” to all, their friends and acquaintances.
