and of the many fearful vicca follow

J.Ioscs to "upeak ' unto tho congrega

Thou ahatt not go up and down as a
tftlo borvrcr among the rwonlo." And
in tho ficrcd pnalru it is written,
Whoso prlf iljr sJaudoreth his neigh

dn, lot loose ia community to bite
whatever man or boast he meeU, is
not as dangorous as the tattler. The
dog kills only tho individual bitten,
whilo the tattler's voitom poisons
madly aud fatally, the wholo commu
nity, llo goaf to hit neighbors, and
listens attentively j hears, perhaps,
something said that may be used to
the disparagement, possibly ruin, of
another, which he drinks down with
the avidity with which the thirsty
toper does tho fiery fluid, and then
foes forth frith venomous tongue to
disseminata suspicion, distrust and
rankling hate, whero before waa the

created v-nH all th fchjuj- of'the
latherof lies uned to destroy all that is
lovely aud good report. In the aacred
Scriptures it is written, "Behlod we
put bits in tho ' horse's mouths that
tho mar oboy us, and we turn about
their . wholo ' body." Kvon so the
tongue is a little membor, and boas
tolh great things. Behold how groat
a matter a little fire kindleth ; and tbe
a.. f a t a A

So is the tongue among our members,

For of every kind of beasts, and of
birds, and of serpents, aud of things lu
the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed
of mankind; but the tongue can no
man tame; it is an unruly, evil, full
of deadly poison. The tattle may
well be comparod to the viper in the
fable, that, warmed and brought to
lifo by tho caro of its kind-hearted
. benefactor turned and stung him to

A writer in tho Jiurul Home says:
'l have just made gates to replace
some old fashioned pairs of bars that I
an heartily tired of opening and shut
ting. They are cheap, durable and
very easily made. Each gato in
twelve foot in length by four feet ia
height. Five boards lour inches wiJo
' are used, beside batten and . braces.
lUttciii should be placed on both
nail through. - It does not take more
than thirty-three feet of boards, worth
perhaps sixty cents, to make eaoli
gate. Add to that ten cenU for nails,
and theva!ue of one hour of your
time, aud you will have the whole ex
nenao. A tmtm nf thi ItSnl will mil

ast a framed one costing $4, aud as
no hingea are used, that expense is
saved also. It ia held in )osition by
means of a stake driven in the e-round

in a siraigni line, but a little more
than the thickness of the en to to ward

Carallel with the drive way. It is
ept a few inches from the ground by
a strip, nailed to both stake and post,
on which oue end rests when shut, aud
on which it slides half its length aud
then swincr round as on a rnvot when
opeuod, The strip is usually placed
under the second board, in a space
arranged for It, by cutting away two
of the battens. This strip takes the
