Te*t: “The soul of my Lord shall bo
bound In the bundle of life with tho Lord
thy d-od.”—I Samuel xxv., 29.
Beautiful Abigail, in her rhythmic plea
for tide rescue of her inebriate husband,
who died within ten days, addresses David,
the warrior, in the words of the text. She
suggests’ that his life, pliysionily and in-
tslIectuaUy and spiritually, is a valuable
package or bundle divinely bound up and
to be div inelv orotected
The phrase “bundle of life”I hoard many
times in my father’s family prayers. Fnm-
ily prayers you know, day have frequent repetl-
tlons, because by day they aoknowl-
edg * about the same blessings and deplore
about the same frailties and sympathize
with about the same misfortunes, and I do
not kno w why those who lead at household
devotioT.s should seek variety ot compost-
tion. That familiar prayer becomes tho
household liturgy. I would not give one
of my old father’s prayers for fifty eloou-
tionary the^norning supplications. Again and again,
in and evening prayer, I heard
the request that we might all ,be hound up
in tho bundle ot life, but I did not know
until a few days ago that the phrase was a
Bible phrase. the last spell of cold weather
During
there were bundles that attracted tho at¬
tention and the plaudits of the high heav¬
ens, bundles of clothing on the way from
comfortable homes to tho door of the
mission room, and Christ stood in the
snowbanks and said as the bundles passed:
“Naked, and ye clothed me. Inasmuch as
ye have clone it unto one of the least of
those my brethren ye have done jt
unto me.“ Those bundles are mnitibly-
ing. Blessings• on thoso who pack them,
Blessings on those who distribute them,
Blesslngs on those who receive them.
With what beautiful aptitude did Abigail
In mv text speak of the bundle of lifel Oh,
what a precious bundle is life! Bundle of
memories, bundle of hopes, bundle of
ambitions, bundle of destinies! Once in
awhile a man writes his autobiography,
and it is of thrilling interest. The story of
his birthplace, the story of his struggles,
the storv of his sufferings, the story of his
triumphs! But if the autobiography of the
most eventful life were well written it
would make many chapters of adventure,
of tragedy, of comedy, and there would
not be an uninteresting or step from cradle
to grave.
Bundle of memories are you! Boyhood
memories, with all its injustices from play-
mates, with all its game with ball and bat
* svs Manhood memories,
stacles, opposition, accidents, misfortunes,
ory of the first advent in your home, mem-
ory of roseate cheek faded and of blue
eyes closed in the last sleep, memory great of
anthem and of dir^e, memory of
pain and of slow alf convalescence, memory of
times when things were against you,
memory of prosperities that came in like
the full tide of the sea, memories of a life-
time. What a bundle!
Bundle of hopes and ambitions also is al-
most every man and woman, especially at
the starting. What gains he will harvest,
or what reputation , he will achieve, or
what bliss he will reach, or what love he
will win. What makes college commence-
ment day so entrancing to all of us as we
see the students receive their diplomas and
take .up the garland3 thrown to their feet?
They will be Faradays in science; they Willard will
be Tennysons in.poesy; they will be
Parkers in surgery; they will be Alexander
Hamiltons in national finance; they will be
Horaee Greeleys in editorial chair; they
Will be Websters in the Senate. Or she
■will bo a Mary Lyon in educational
realms, or a Frances Willard on reforma-
tory platform, or a Helen Gould in military
hospitals. Or she will make home life
radiant with helpfulness womanhood. and self-sacrifice
and magnificent Oh, what a
bundle of hopes and ambftions! It is a
bundle dt garlands and scepters frpm
which I would not take one sprig of
mignonette nor extinguish one spark of
brilliance. They who start life without
bright hopes and inspiring ambitions
might as well not start at ali, for every
step will be a failure. Rather would I add
to the bundle, and if I open it now it will
be because I wish to take anything from
it, but that I may put into it more coronets
and hosannas.
Bundle of faculties in every man and
everv woman! Power to think—to think
of the past and through all the future, to
think upward ami higher than the highest
pinnacle of heaven, or to think downward
until there is no lower abysm to fathom,
Power to think right, power to think wrong,
power to think forever, for, once having
begun to think, there shall be no terminus
for that exercise, and eternity itself shall
have no power to bid it halt. Faculties to
love—filial leva, conjugal love, paternal
love, maternal love, love of country, love
of God. Fifculty of judgment, mighty with they scales

of it staggers me, swamps me, stuns me,

human yet immortal being!

Election day in Chicago is product¬
ive of many amusing Incidents. At an
election booth in Milwaukee avenue,
the jtidge was a German, whose worth
as an American citizen is not marked
by an extensive knowledge of the
country of his adoption. He is, how¬
ever, an active ward hustler, and as
such he always stands ace high with
his party during campaigns.
On election clay a resident of the pre¬
cinct called to cast his ballot. He was
not known to the judge, and the latter
asked:
"There vas you born?”
“In Iowa,” was the response.
“Veil, let me se your papers,” de¬
manded the election official. .
“Why, judge,” broke in one of the
clerks, Ization “this man doesn’t have to show
natura papers; he was born in

LABRADOR’S QUEER FOLK.
Th# While Men Who Live There o! Their Own
Choice.
It seems strange that with freedom
to come and go civilized men should
choose to dwell in a region so terribly
bleak and sterile as Labrador. Yet of
the 8,700 inhabitants of that great
peninsular, 3,000 are of the white or
mixed race. They mainly are descen¬
dants of English sailors, some of whom
were shipwrecked and move of whom
\ probably left their ships without leave.
Finding themselves stranded on Shis
lonely shore, they made the best of
their lot, marrying Eskimo wives and
living after the manner of the country.
! in later times some Newfoundlanders
! chose rather to settle in Labrador
I than make the uncomfortable trips to
I and fro yearly from St. .John’s for the
j annual shores. codftshing These brought off the their wives
and children with them and intro-
duced a new strain of civilized life.
All of these people live in little set¬
tlements strung along the coast, on
Islands or in fiords, from Battle Har¬
bor south to the Gulf of St. Law¬
rence. They dwell, in houses of stone
or logs. In winter they wear hooded
fur garments like the Eskimos: in
summer the ordinary garb of New¬
foundland fishermen, Tho women
dress in gray or blue woollen stuff,
with a gaudy gown for best. On their
heads they wear a knit hood or a
bright-colored handkerchief, and, it
may be, at out-of-door work or abroad
on the water, a man’s sou'wester.
Against tho walls in their houses are
pasted such pictures ns they have
been able to clip from the few news¬
papers 'that fall in their way. adver¬
tising lithographs that have come with
goods to the trading stores, and pic¬
tures of thes ort issued by tract so¬
cieties. On the table or shelf in the
living room is always a Bible, reli¬
giously read on Sunday when the cod
are not biting or a fare of fisli to be
dressed and flaked. It is a devout
and sober-minded community, that of
the whites along the coast of Labra¬
dor. Their religious ministrations are
provided by the Moravians, who have
several missions in Labrador; their
temperance is assured by stringent
laws forbidding the landing of any
liquors in Labrador, and these are
made effective by a thorough patrol
by the Dominion revenue steamships,
which deal inexorably with smugglers
of strong water.
American Exhibits at Paris.
Hundreds of American horseless car¬
riages and vehicles of all kinds will be
seen on the streets of Paris during the
great universal exposition of 1000.
Contracts have recently been let in
various eities in the United States,
notably Chicago, for the building and
equipping of about 5,000 electrical car¬
riages. American railroads are pre¬
paring to make extensive exhibits at
the Paris Exposition, and some of
them will be full of novel and striking
ideas. One plan, which has already
received the approval of a number of
tho leading railroad companies, pro¬
vides for the construction of an enor¬
mous upright relief or profile map of
the United States, on which every line
of railroad in the country will be
marked by electrical devices.—New

George Marth, of Carmel, N. Y., had
a canary .which committed suicide the
other day. The bird was valuable and
his wife thought the world of it. A _
short time ago its mate died from old
age and ever after that the little song-
ster appeared to be morose and acted
strangely. Oil the day of the bird's

water in which it daily took a bath.
Instead of doing so, and while its
mistress was out of sight, the canary
buried its head beneath the water and
drowned.—New York Press.

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
isduenot only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par¬
ties. The high standing of the Cali¬
fornia Fig Syrup Co. with the medi¬
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken¬
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company —
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO.
