How fleeting Is fame ! Dewey, the ideal hero, Is said to have given the house given him by trie public to his new bride and straightway thous ands condemn without knowing whether the story is true or not. Woman broke the charm of Hobson, and now it is threatened as to Dewey, the world forgeting that the brave should always yield to the fair. There can be no poorer soil for a ohildplant to grow In, or to attempt to grow in, than the soil of pretense To learn to conceal is a sorrowful lesson indeed for a child. To learn to conceal honest poverty, as though ashamed of it, is the most sorrowful of the sorrowful lessons in this line, for it is to so little purpose, and is un necessary afterward. 'Riii.non men renort that tho tramp" travel. tin over the road at this time are nearly all professional. The 'man In search of work' has almost entirely disappeared for the reason that work is plentiful." The above is taken from the Hazle ton Standard, one of those calamity howling newspapers that but a fow weeks ago declared there was no such thing as "better times" in the coal regions and that the "apparent" pros peritv was mythical. Now the editor eats crow with something of a way face. Death of Mr. floody. The death of D wight L.Moody takes from the world an heroic ilgure. His strength came from his belief. He w .". a a man of beliefs in an age of negations. His power in uttering th ringing appeals to sinners was that of a man to whom spiritual things were no figment of the brain, but real and majestic things. No man ever looked at him in th midst of his work or urging it before audiences of professing Christians but felt the strong soul of the man He was as insistant for the revival of Christians as for the conversion of sinners; as uncompromising with coldness In the church as deadness without; as high-strung for doing the Lord's service when he was at th edge of poverty as when money begaa rolling in to him for his evangelizing enterprises. It is too soon yet to attempt, even Miinerflciallv. an estimate of Mr. Moody's work. From the great re vival time of 187B until his death 111 presence in the large slties has been the signal for immense overflowings of people to hear his simple, fervid exhortations. It seemed as if that was all. It was far from it. The truth wag that Mr. Moody was a born organizer, mastering great results by great details of preliminary work He believed in ten men working in stead of one, a hundred instead of ten. He threw the force of his posi tive, almost blunt, manner into doing work systematically. In all this he had but one thought. and that thought was to preaoh a gospel of salvation through Jesus Christ to a world of ninners. Few men have left such an impress upon the world for good as Mr. Moody, aud It will never be known jUBt how.many people have been induced to lead new lives through his preaehing and teaahlng. The great soldier of the cross has gone to his Master finished his work. His 1ok will be deeply felt in the re ligious world.

To Be Depended On. Because It Is the Experience of a Slien andoali Citizen and Can Readily be Investigated. A stranger lost In a large city would place far more dependence on tlio directions given him by a local resldout than tho guidance of anotbor strangor llko himself. This is natural conM'cpiviice of experienco; it's like a ship in ii stiango port a trusty pilot famil iar with the harbor U always called upon to bring ber safely to her moorlngB. So it is with endorsement; wedaiibttbo sayings of people living at distaut points because we can't investigate, but public expression of local citizens can be depended on, for 'tis an easy matter to provo It.
