WHAT AN EXPERIENCED MAN SAYS AIIOUT A
HAD 1'ItAOTIOK.
People who are observant, havo been fre
quently impressed by the practice of most
drivers of horses on tho highways of fol
lowing a rut pursuing It, until thoy wear
n cut In a road deep enough to Blnk the
wheels of vehicles below the fello ws. This
could be avoided if all tho drivers would
avoid running their vehicles In ruts, and
the even wear of a road maintained.
Evpry vehicle that Is run In ruts of roads,
Is more or less injured by being wrenched
In tho twists to which their wheels aro sub
jected when conflDed lu such narrow limits.
A very llttlo care In this matter would
greatly add to tho preservation of the
smoothness and beauty ot all highways.
People who constantly run In ruts, become
cranky nnd garrulous, nnd vehicles that
run in tho same way on public highways,
spoil tho road on which they aro wheeled,
and become unsafe and unpleasant as
means of conveyance. Don't pursue or

A MASSACHUSETTS MINISTEIt TO START AN
OTHER SECT OF CHRISTIANS.
Tho Rev. H. F. Titus, former pastor ot
the Baptist Church at Newton, Mass , has
concluded to try and start a new church,
whoso members shall undertake to llvo as
the first Christian lived. Mr. Titus resign
cd his pastorate some time ago to study
medicine in order to better fit himself for
missionary work; but his people persuaded
him to go on preaching until n recent Sun
day, when he told them that he should not
enter the' pulpit again; that ho had ceased
to be a Baptist; thnt there was no other
church that he could go to,slnce nono at
tempted to live the Ideal lifo patterned out
in tho Gospel and that he had no choice
but to attempt to start one of his own.
Mr, Titus thinks that in the Ideal church,
such as he proposes to found, there should
be no rich, no poor; that tho members
should glvo generously one to another;
that they should take care of each
other better than Free Masons or any simi
lar society and that there should be no so.
ciul distinctions among them.

instant death, by lightning, of William

passed down his back, thenco both limb)

tion" by Miss Laura Bllno was n pleasing
feature for tho occasion. A touching scene
was nlTcctlngly rendered by Miss Zoll
Krlckbaum. A short address by Rev.
Boon was well timed. All the exercises
were excellent. Tho collection was held

Children's Day was observed at Raven,
creek Presbyterian church Inst Sunday
evening. Tho display of decorations was
not so profuse as at Hamillnc, but the music
and recitations wero grand. Tho children
did their part nobly. An address was mado
by Rev. Wm. Mather. A better day Is
dawning for a grand work by children in
tho church.
Tho engineer, running tho trains on tho
B. & 8. R. R, would confer a favor to road
sters and teamsters were ho to blow the
whistle a quarter of a milo or bo above the
Iron bridge at Orangevllle, when south
bound, as that would warn persons In time
from attempting to cross the bridge. Last
Saturday morning wo kept a sharp lookout
for tho train, but were not certain whether
it was yet due, or alrctdy down, and rhen
two thirds across tho bridgo tho whistle
blow Immediately above. Looking up wo
saw ut onco that our position was a precari
ous one, und the Impulso "go" seized us,
aud we "went," but wo found it more dffl-
cult to halt than to go. As to safety we
preferred to attempt beating tho rushing
train over tho crossing than to risk going
over the bridgo whose sides we deemed In
sulllcienttoresistthe pressure ot a fractious,
uacKing team.

Counterfeit ItollurH Afloat.
A large number of counterfeit dollars are
reported to bo afloat. It Is said that the
coiu is tho best specimen of "queer" sliver
money ever seen in this country. It is
dated 1887. Tho color and ring is so near
perfect that it is practically impossiblo to
detect anything wrong In either of theso
particulars without tho closest comparative
examination. The dlfterenco in weight Is
that tho "queer" dollar is (lighter by tho
weight of an old fashioned silver five cent
pleco-so llttlo that a scalo;tcst or handling
by nn expert Is necessary to detect the
shortage. Whllo the counterfeit la mould
mado instead of being stamped, tho work
manshlp Is high grado in goncral and par
tlcularly on tho fnco of tho coin. Tho mill
ed edge is a shado coarser than in tho genu,
ine, nnd tho top of tho letter T in "United"
is defective. Better bo on lho lookout for
them.

ALLEN READS THE HEAVENS.
Llttlo Allen, twenty-two months, old. Is
standing In the door looking towards the
eastern sky about sunset. Something at
tracts his attention. "Up-a-dar," he says.
pointing to tho nearly full moon, "Papa's
money dodder" (dollar); A fow minutes
later he sees tho cloids "cars smoke" Is
his verdict. Wo told him tho moon and1
clouds wero In tho sky. Next morning he
went out to Sec them as soon as breakfast
was over. He could see neither and he
says: "Sky gone."

Mamma My dear, did you not ask God
last night to mako you a good boy?
Richard (who has Just been throwing

asked him to, but It looks aB It he wouldn't.

Irate Father See here, sir, what does
this mean? You said you were at tho head
of the class, but Mr. Pcdagoguo sajs you
aro at tho foot.
Llttlo Son Well, maybo he counts from
the other end.
HIS DUTY AH HE SAW IT.
The editor was much Interested recently
in a small boy, his opposite In one of lho
uptown horso cars. It was hard to decide
whether tho boy's companion was his moth
er or elder sister, but presumably tho form,
er. At any rate the llttlo fellow was in
good company, and the lady, whoever she
was, was apparently pleased with her
charge. Tho conversation was about a
book, and after they had been talking a
little whllo the lady said to him:
'I am sorry you lent that book of papa's.
You know he Is very careful ot his books,
and that one came home In such a dreadful
condition. You should never lend what Is
not your own."
"I know," said the llttlo fellow, "but
what in the world aro you going to do
when you have got to do as you would be
done by?"
TWO HO.MOROUS CHURCH INOIDENTS,
A little girl who was taken to tho Epls
copnl church for tho first time heard tho
clergyman read tho text:
"On these two commandments hang all
the law and tho prophets."
"Grandma," said tho little girl after she
got home, "do they hang tho prophets on
tho commandments just tho Bamo as they
do presents on tho Christmas tree?"
It was another llttlo girl who, going to
tho Episcopal church, and happening to turn
around just at tho moment when tho con
gregation bow their adoration to tho creed,
took it Into her head that they wero all
bowing to her. And so, as sho was a po
lite little girl, and not inclined to receive a
Balutatlon without returning it, sho bowed
very respectfully and exclaimed:
"Good morning, people!"
