F. 8PITTLER, Purchaser. AN EFFECTIVE SERMON. Trumpet Blast That Drove the People to Repentance. Old Peter Cartwright was a famous preacher and circuit rider many years ago. The exhorter was holding a camp meeting In Ohio. There was a great number of campers on the field, and the eccentric speaker addressed vast concourses at every service, but be thought too few were being converted. He felt that something should be done to stir the sinners to repentance, so he prepared a strong sermon on the second coming of Christ. He told how the world would go on in its sin and wickedness and at last Gabriel would sound his trumpet and time would come to an end. He described the horrors of the lost and the joys of those who were saved. The sermon grew In Intensity, and he brought his people up to a grand climax, when Sud denly the sound of a trumpet smote the ears of the anxious throng. There was a great sensation, and many fell upon their knees In terror and began to repent and pray. Women screamed and strong men groaned. Pandemonium was let loose for a few minutes. After the terror had some what ceased the preacher called to a man up a tree, and he descended with a long tin horn In his hand. The speaker then turned In fierce wrath and upbraided the people. He cried out In stentorian tones that. If a man "with a tin horn up a tree could frighten them so, how would It be In the last great end when Gabriel’s trumpet sounded the knell of the world! The sermon had a great effect upon the vast audience, and many hundreds flocked to the front and were con verted. Simple Whan You Know How. An innocent cockney while In the country asked a farmer how they man aged to grow streaky bacon. “Oh, It Is simple enough,” said the honest agriculturist. “One week we starve the pig or feed him very little. That makes a layer of lean meat. Next week we give him all he can possibly eat. even working overtime, and that raukes a row of fat. So by alternate starving and feeding we get the beau tiful streaky bacon.” “Denr me,” said the cockney, "and how do you make the ham?” “Oh, we manage that by putting a ring In the pig’s nose," was the reply. —London M. A. P. The Frontier Six Months for 75c A WARSHIP TEST. The Unexpected Beat to General Quar ters at Midnight, The ship is lying at anchor In a distant port. It is night and nothing Is heard hut the tramp of the sentry on the forecastle and the ripple of water at the gangway. Only tlie officer of the deck, the quar termaster and the guard are awake. The entire crew are below decks and dreaming in their hammocks. The cabin dour opens aud the captain steps forth softly, fully dressed and wearing his sword and revolver. He speaks in a low tone to the officer of the deck, who sends an orderly for ward with a message. In a moment the orderly returns, bringing with him the drummer, who stands silently at the mast, drumsticks in hand, watch ing the commander. “Eight bells”—midnight-Ms struck. At a silent signal from the command ing officer the drummer poises his sticks an Instant, then sounds the long roll, or "alarm,” which is at once fol lowed by the quick beat to "general quarters.” Instantly the scene changes to one of apparently the utmost confusion. Four hundred men leap from their ham mocks. Passing a few turns of the lashings around them, they throw them Into their “nettings,” - then spring to their stations at the batteries and cast loose the guns. A moment more and a bright flash and roar from the forecastle pivot gun bursts upon the stillness and gloom of the night, followed quickly by the broadside battery. Each gun is fired once, a blank charge, but enough to show that the gun is in good order and ready for service. As suddenly the pandemonium sub sides. Confusion gives place to silence and order and not a sound is heard, \Jbut the battle lanterns flashing along the crowded deck reveal the well disci plined crew standing at their quarters, every man equipped with cutlass and pistol, silent and alert. Sponges, ram mers, supply boxes and battle axes lit ter the deck; everything is provided and ready as for action, while the captain, accompanied by the executive officer (the first lieutenant), with nn orderly bearing a lantern, makes a thorough inspection fore and aft and below, including the powder division, magazines and shell rooms, to see that nothing Is lacking which would be re quired in real action. At the touch of the drum the ship has been changed from deathlike still ness to readiness for battle, every offi cer and man at his station, armed, si lent, expectant—and all in less than three minutes!—Chicago News. Cause of Giantism. A learned Italian dector says that giantism is a morbid process, a disease due to an enlargement of a part of the brain which Is endowed with growth regulating functions. When that part of the brain enlarged, the limbs grew to an abnormal extent and other phys ical changes occurred, the excess of growth being chiefly in the lower jaw, the arms and legs. No giant ever at tains length of days. The average life is only a fraction over twenty years. Ireland has produced at least four giants—McGrath, born in Tipperary in 1736 (he was seven feet five Inches in height); Malone, seven feet six inches; Murphy, seven feet three inches, and Charles Byrne, seven feet six inches. None of them ever reached great men tal development Old Dances In Old Times. In Edward Scott’s “Dancing In AM Ages” are some curious details about the dances of old England. “Joan Sanderson” was a “jolly dance” in Mr. Scott’s definition, for be fore it was ended each lady had kissed all the gentlemen twice, and each man had been equally enterprising. Mary Stuart danced the “Volta,” though “not so high and so dlsposedly” ns Elizabeth. In King Charles’ time peo ple danced “Trenchmore,” the “Cush ion Dance,” “Omnium Gatherum” and “Hoite cum Toite.” "All In a Garden Green.” “Gathering of Peascods,” “Lumps of Pudding.” “Under and Over,” “The Bath,” “The Slaughter House” and “Have at Thy Coat, Old Woman,” are dances not quite so old. The Meaning of “Muff.” The record of the fact that muffs were once worn by more men than wo men in Paris suggests the old Ingenious definition of a muff as “a soft thing that holds a lady’s hand without squeez ing it.” “Muff” appears to have come to us from German, in which language, curiously, “muff” means not only a hand comforter, but also a sulky per son or a growling dog. These seem, however, to be two different words, Was our own metaphorical “muff” an allusion to the effeminacy of muff wearers or simply an intimation that the persou was distinctly “soft?”— London Chronicle. True to the Adage. “My son, my son!” exclaimed the* dis mayed mother as she saw all her boy’s belongings stacked in a corner of the closet. “Haven’t I tried over and over to teach you that you should have n place for everything?” “Yep,” said the son cheerfully, “and this is the place.”—Chicago News. Fame. “Who was James Boswell?” asked the teacher of the class In English lit erature. “He was Dr. Samuel Johnson’s press agent,” answered the .young man with the bad eye.—Chicago Tribune. Good temper is like a sunny day—it sheds its brightness everywhere,— French Proverb. •sf 1 LUMBER 1 Going to build that house or barn this summer?
