Dr. Ike was called to ce old Ned's ?ou, aud after several viit; the doc tor said to the anxious father. "Ned, I donn wanter distress yer, but dat boy can't git well. De cou gIo:ii?ratiu of de nuwubi una hab dun ot in " " Val!, I leckon dat w ill kill him," Ned replied. '"I doau ; how a c'ule wid his weak constitution an' con- veuuoo can ci ouer sucu a o Deaneries-, ob do flesh. So you gin him up, Doctor?" "Ysas, I issues my decrement right hcah. Dat boy cau't live five hours." About two weeks later Ned met the doctor and said: "I thought you gin that boy up?" "I did. Ain't he dead yet?" "Dead," repeated Ned contempt uously, "why he's choppiu' wood dis morn in." The doctor reflected for a moment and said ; "Dat's a nice way to fool wid medical science. How don yer ex peck folks to hab confidence in de advancement of medical diskivcries when a boy acks dat way. Dat boy sab, lifts hisself up to dispute de 'tab lishad rules ob de school ob phy sicians. Fee done -wid him." "Fee glad ob it nali, but yo'scf mtikt had made a mistake.

New Chprch (iainc. l'ock's .Sun. There is a prospect of a great church row up in Chippewa county. It seems there are people there who play cards, and it ha been one of the serious du ties of the church to frown down all such wickedness. It hag been argued that the handling of cards leads to gambling, and cheating, and games of chance have beu held up to the youth as the wickedest thing imaginable. Hut since the last church sociable was held the 01 Idly people have been warning the youth against the sins of sociables. It seems they wanted to raise money for the church, and one of the deacons suggested an innocent game which would fill the coffers. A wash tub was procured and filled wiih bran, .ind a silver coin placed in the bran and concealed. For ten cents person could take a big spoon and dip out a spoonful of bran, and if he or she got the coin in the spoon, they were so much ahead. The good peo ple were anxious to lay up treasures where moth and dust does not corrupt, so they played the bran game exten sively. The tub was surrounded, and people had to stand in a line and take their turns. The deacon who pre sii'ed over the innocent game and took in the dimes, perspired, and put on an air of prosperity, and had his pockets full of money, and he gloried that the church had struck a soft snap How much better this was thaa the wicked seven-up, the wordly euchre, the terrible eassiuo, and the demond iziug draw poker. Here there was no chance of getting the bowers up one's sleeve. Here all was fair, and there was 110 shenanuagan about it You paid your money and you pu in your spoon. The church was wax ing rich, and all went merry as marriage bell, until some of the worldly people had hands dealt to them. They had noticed that the truly good people had squandered their money and got no return, not even as much as uh: does when playing three card monte. The worldly people marveled much that the coin did not coniu up with the bran, and after taking a few chances in the Jerunli'in lottery, one of them kic'ied, aud called tor a "show down." The deacon did not know what a "snow (Lwu" wa, and want ed the game to go on, but the world ly gamblers who believe 1 there was "colluliug insisted on having a committee appointed to examine the brau. The dcacoy turned pale and asked if they doubted him, and tried to stand off .m investigation, but the brethren' aud cistern' who had beeu despoiled of their wealth by the seductive brau mash, eided with the wicked worldlings, and the wa9h tub was examined The bran was taked out into the boilers that had been prepared to boil the oyster for the soup, and when the bottom of the tub was reached, the enormity of the descou's offense was found. The silver coin was nailed to the bottom of the tub. A murmur of reproach wenc arounu, ana tue deacon was sought, but ho had taken his coat on his arm and gone home, his head bowed down with sh line. As he went out he tot.l the pastor that there was no use of trying to run a church if world ly people were allowed to come in and investigate the game. What it want ed was faith. There is talk of having the deacon brought before the confer ence on charge of obtaining money under false pretenso?, but the pastor thinks perhaps the deacon did not know that the coin was nailed to the bottom of the tub. He says, now he thinks of it, the deacon looked very much surprised when he left the soci able that night. The worldly people propose to push the matter, o claiming that it was a skiii g im-3ofth3 wo:st description, and many of the church members, who lost t'ipir money, favor an investig niou. However it turns out it is uotortunate, and shows that honest7 is the best policy, even at a church sociable. The deacon asks a suspension of public opinion until he can prepare a statement. It Was a Loul Shout. The news of the sweeping triumph of Hon. Geo. S. Smith and his associ ates causes much rejoicing lp.'re. The hurrahs of the boys in Platf smo:ith were distinctly audible in Lincoln over the telephone. A shout of vict ry that can 1h heard fifty miles is a good one.
