These delicate structures are un<je- veloped in the very young child, or Gold Landsides andSharesr We are going to sell them, for the present, _^at unheard-of prices. This is a good time to lay in a stock of these goods. The; child is at first, therefore, defi- cient Jn.. speech, reasoning power, in- tellection, judgment, and all higher moral sensibilities which govern our thinking, feeling, and willing. How the drunkard, by paralyzing these brain structures, can sink to the level of the animal, and lower, is well .known. Whoever, then, gives wine and beer to a child, injures these deli- catejtructures in their formation, and thoughtlessness, flightihess, "''passion^ coarse sensuality, and all base charac- teristics 'attain domination. .

Lively Gome for Indoors.Toe painter, and the colors Is an

amusing Indoor game. The leader litbe 'painter.- The rest of the playersore_colo.rs,;.each taking a.name-rPranKeiblue, green, etc.— to which he mustrespond directly it is mentioned. Be-yond this there ,ar.e four words whichmust be answered in various .•ways.

—- When-the-palnter names" the palettorall except the painter cry out, "Colors,colors!". When he speaks of colors In'general, all cry, "Here we are!" Whenof his pencil, the answer exacted Is,"Brush! -brush!". Finally, when henames, turpentine, general consterna-

accord exclaim, "Help, help!"Any "color" mentioned by name must

Immediately name another "color" ofthe party. -The latter replies simply,"Here, sir." Any mistakes or hesita-tion in giving replies Is punishable bya forfeit.

Herejs an example of the game:Painter— I am -commfssloncd by my

noble patron, the Marquis of Carabas,to-print a picture of HamletnmoVepfae^ -mIla. I have made my design and shallbegin to set my palette.—All the-colors—Colors!—Colorst

WASHINGTON, i). C.—In this discourseDr. Talmngc makes practical USL> of an oc-,currenco in the Orient which-has aeldoa{attracted particular Attention; text, IIKings vi, 0, "The iron did swim."

A tbooloffical eeainary in the'valley .,polms near the River Jordan, had becomejeo popular in the time of Elisha, the p>o-*hot, that more accommodations' wereJaeededJfor the students. The classrooma

"and the'dormitbriea^ must'be enlarged.oran entirely new building constructed.\Vlat will they do?'- Will they send up toJerusalem and solicit contributions forthis undertaking? Will they send outojents to raise the money for a new thco-iogical seminary? Having raised the

"money, wnrtn"ey~Mffd"for~ce~d.af-8fr-Ijeb:'anon arid.marble from the quarries wheretahab got the stone for the pillars andWalls • o£ his palace? No; the studentspropose, to. build it themselves. Theyffirere rugged boys, who had been brought

The sycamores near the Jordan arenow attacked by Elisha'a students, foi

Many of those who artnbw'VloihB'the "best" work in "church andstate got muscle and power of endurancefrom the fact that in early life they worecompelled to use axe or plow or flail otnamraor." while many : who were- , broughtup in the. Jnxuries of life give out beforethe battle is won. They are keen andsharp of mind, but have jio physical en-durance. They .have the axe head, but, noittndle. The body is the handle of theoul. • , •Do not feel lonely because your nearest

id another and another. But somethinghappens so wonderful that the occur-'will tax the cTedullty"6Ttn'e~'age8, so"

,dcrful-that-many-still-think-it-neverippened at all. One of the students, not8le"to~own an axe, had borrowed'one.rqu most remember.that while the axe of

- Suppose n hundred yearn ago some onebad told people the time would came whenhundreds of thousands of tons of ironwould float on the Atlantic and Pacific-iron ships from New York to Southamp.ton, from London to Calcutta, from SanFrancisco to Canton. The man makingsuch a prophecy would have been-sent taan asylum or carefully watched as incom-petent to go alone. Wu- have all in ourday seen iron swim.

In .one form or another coasting Isamong the. most ancient and universalof amusements. Incongruous as itBounds, this has been a favorite sportin Hawaii time out of mind. Theauthor of "Hawaiian America" de-scribes the possibilities of coasting Inthe tropics. , -

So God bos givensvery one of us an axe With which to hew.

Let us keep it in good order, havingbeen sharpened . by Bible study andstrengthened _ by prayer. The reason wetome times fail in our work is because wehave a dull axe or we do not know howiright to swing it. 7he_liEAd is not arighton the handle. At the time we .want the

flow the Indefatigable Iitfo-InanraaeoAgent Run Down Bl« Prey. .

A Jife Insurance agent who resides inthis iplace deserves great credit not onlyfor tho energy and persistency-'Vfltliwhich ho pushea ,hls bualnesg, but forhis punctuality .In keeping cngage»"ments.- He had been after a man whoresides la Anita for the past two years,and had received some encouragement.Ho called one day last week, 'and whenthe mah saw the Insurance agent ap-proachliig he.ran and hid. But the in-surance agent had caught a glimpse of.his floating form and was not to befoiled. He finally smoked bis man outand told him he had. come .to .talk In-surance. • ; — —~ -

•«I~am-too;busyi—said tho man; "caUagain when I have more time,"'

'When may I call, then?. Set youro-wn time, and I'll be there."

The man thought - a moment thenmade reply: " .

"You may call next Friday morningat .8 o'clock.". " v "

"I wlllbe.pn time." 'R'hea the appointed day arrived -our

indefatigable insurance man aroae at.1:30 .o'clock,-and. walked to Anita adistance of nearly flve miles, arrivingthere at 2:86. He'sat down on the :porchand waited until precisely 3 o'clock,then'rang the door bell. ~~~

•. "Whit's( wanted?" Inquired a femalevoice from an upstairs window.

"Is Mr. Jones aVhome?""He is."

~ "Tell'him "to come down right away.I have some very important businesswith him.".,Mr. Jones hustled downstairs In his

night shirt, and there, was the life In-

. ieJregaOiii!!aB_xon r»auested, to talk life Insurance.". Jones was somewhat astonished andbewildered, but, realizing that he wasup against it, said: ,

''Such punctuality deserves to be re-.warded. I surrender." ' '

And he gave him his application for apolicy.—Punxsutawney Spirit

Sir Henry and the Cabby.-Sir Henry Irving, -while filling • hisBrooklyn engagement, made his homeat-'the ~Ho!ei~HiaTgareT ~on -ColumbiaHeights, and It was his .custom 'everypleasant afternoon to -drive In Pros-pect Park, writes the New .York cor-ttfspondenfbf the London Express)

One afternoon^ the 'driver came withthe usual velilcle—a closed carriage—and set out ignorant of the fact that

>vho had climbed in was tho dlstln-ilshed-actor?In wbttt seemed to be a very Bhort

time for an .afternoon outing'the car

\vo got Into tho park I beard a groan-ing Inside, then I caught the words:Hates any man tho thing he would
