Down in it town in Georgia, where l
was pastor of it church. there was it
carriagemaker, and he called up till
his hands one Christmas eve and had a
full settlement with them. After he
had settled with all the hands, he called
back ayellow boy. Jerry, andsaid to
him; "Jerry. couie here: herons $30.“
and he handed him a $20 gold-piece.
Jerry said: "Why, boss, you‘ve paid
me once.“ "I nod you for working.
but this #20 gol piece is for the smiles
that have played over your face all the
\‘esr. \Vhatever 1 bid you do during
the whole year. you always went about
the task with a smiling countenance."
Brethren, the Lord pays you clean cash
for what you do. and pays you double
for the way you do it. Good Lord, help
us“to get into this double-pay business.
PROOF OF MILLENIl'Mu
I tell you I never shall believe that the
millenium has dawned on this world
until a congregation can shoot clear
though the collection. Dont let Joy-
fulness depart because the hat is passed
around. Be cheerful always.
RICH rovnn‘ri'.
Money won't make a man rich. I
think some of the poorest men I ever
saw had more moue than they. could
count conveniently. gooey don t. satis-
fv amen. When he starts out to get
{10.000 and has gotten it. he wants twice
as much. When he has got $20,000 he
wants four times as much, and when he
has got $40,000 then be Is ust turned
kiose. I think the richest man know of in
Georgia is the poorest man I know. The
Lord have mercy on 1 rich poor man.
Josh Billings described him._ He said:
“An old rich fly had fallen into a half
barrel of molasses; a little drop would
have been good for the poor fel ow, but
he fellinto a half barrel of-it."
A CHRISTIAN Elwin.
I asked a company of brethren .which
part of an engine elch would prefer
to be. One brother said: “Well, l‘diike
to be the driving-wheel, because it has
so much power in it." Another brother
said he would like to be the better. where
the steam was generated. Another
said: “1 love to be the trucks, to roll on
ahead ofall men toGod." And another:
“I would like to be the defender or cow.
catcher, as it is called. to kee off every
obstacle in the way." Anot er would
like to be the whistle. to sound the praise
of God, and another the throttle, when
he put hishaodson it things were bound
tomove. Omnidbo would likcto be
the air-brakes, to stop the young peoxle
from runnin to him and no, t it
had ex their ‘ entices excep a
young fellow. small III stature, and be
amped up.’ He was the man
I ever knew. about.
31.500 a
He is a
mmmm- ‘8!
little fellow, but. he gave $500 a year for
foreign missions. The Lord have mercy
upon some of you old rich fellows in this
town that think they are ruined if they
give half of that to God. This little,
grand fellow said: “I am rfectly will-
ing to be a lot of black cos to make the
steam to carry .the engine and train
home to find. “That‘s Christianity,
that's the sort.
NLRB“ TRI‘TII.
Do you know where we get that
expression, the “naked" truth ? Now
look out for your mock modesty along
here; you may get it smashed.
The old story is that Truth and Error
along time ago went in bathing to«
gether. lt isn‘t told what. Truth was
doing. but while in bathing Error ran
out of the water and put. on Truth‘s
clothes and ran off with them on. and
when Truth saw that Error had taken
all of her clothes, she said; “I have
nothing left to put on but the clothes
Error has left. but beforei will put those
on lwill go naked the balance of my
life." Since that time we have had the
plain naked truth, and I never want any
clothes on it.
tcE (‘REAM FREEZERS.
I have been associated very intimately
for thirteen years with many preachers,
and I have yet to find a dozen preachers
that I do not love and do not admire. I
love the preachers: they are a noble set
of men. I‘ll tell you what you want.
you want your preacher to do this, and
to do that, to preach “better sermons, ‘
to preach with "more beauty of ex-
pression.“ to ptit “litiire feeling into his
sermons." Now. haven‘t you heard that

any branch of its employment, paper-

printing, refusing absolutely to employ
any man in any branch who had any

who would suffer most? Riots would
not remedy the situation for tlte boycot-

would merely confirm the look-out, ex-

The more judgment of the community
would pronounce against the instigators
of the trouble, as it has pronounced
against the Southwestern strike. These
tremendous reprisels are resources to
which employers have not yet generally
turned. But the demand of the Knights
of Labor to supersede lawful vern-
ment, to dictate to every man w at he
shall do with his own, to permit all
gmt enterprises and industries to be
prosecuted only as they shall choose,
will not be tolerated in a free country
and by a free people. There is no excuse
for such attempted tyranny in this coun~
try, vvhere Knights of Labor are voters
and can influence legislation, and where
there is no public sympathy for corpora-
tions and great associations of organized
capital, but the strongest. disposition to
favor labor and the laboring man. No-
thing has shown this more plainly than
the friendly tone of the recs toward the
Knights of Labor until t 9 recent events
in Missouri. which have revealed so
clearly the scope and tendency of the
situation that, except in a few dema-
gogue . sheets, which are the
worst enemies of honest labor, the con-
demnation is universal. But its charac-

demnation of the union of anybody of
men lawfull to demand what they hold
to be their rights and dues, and to re-
fuse to work except it n certain terms.

An Invention of Great Importance to
the “at Trade.
Few people who wear fur hats have
any accurate knowledge of the procem
of their manufacture. They know, in a
general way. that the bat is con
of fur, made intoa compact felt through
sortie mysterious nieces: but of the
animals whose fur is suited for the pun
pose, how it is prepared for felting, and
bow felted, they are in total ignorance.
And there are very few. too, of those
who are engaged in the art. of bat mak-
ing who could do anything more to en-
lighten the ignorance of the general
public on the subject. than to name the
various animals whose fur is used for
bats, their relative value for the pur-
pose, and to describe the methods of
treating the fur. and the various manip-
ulations to which it is objected in the
process of making it into bats. This any
hatter can readily do, but if called upon
to explain the structure of the fur fibre,
the necessity for its peculiar treatment,
and why and how it. felts, he would
probably either confess his ignorance, or
offer an explanation that would be little
better than a guess. There are myste-
ries connected with the felting of for
which few, if an , have yet succeeded in
penetrating. is is oolarly true
of the process of "carroting," which is
the technical term used to designate the
preparation of fur for felting.
It will probably surprise most people
who do not live in a batting district to
learn that fur in its natural state will
not felt—that is. the individual fibres
will not interlock and entangle them~
selves together to produce felt, unless
they are first subjected to the process
of curroting. This process its practiced
for more than 200 years. consists in rub-
bing upon the fur, “‘Illlt' on the skin, a
solution of nitrate of mercury. which so
changes its character that the fibres
seem toscquire it great attraction for
one another. and through the instru~
nientulitios ' of heat. moisture and
motion are easily brought into a state
of intimate interlocking contact, or felt.
This method of carroting is said to
have been practiCed in France prior to
the revocation of tho Edict of Nantes in'
His—1, when it was lost during the en-
forced departure of the liuguenots. who
:tloue practiced it, and by whom it was
kept .1 secret.
It was subsequently reintroduced
from England in the year 1730. This
tlttlt‘ seems to be authentic. Evidence,
appsrcutlv reliable. exists of its use in
Saxony prior to the year ITO".

t‘es‘s \\‘u.~‘ used the danger to the work-

France. but itppztreutly without satis-
f:tctory results. Alkalies, acids. astrin-
gents and caustics have been repeatedly
tried, but proved failures. A number
of experiments were made under the di-
rrction of the French society for the

of practical value. The failure of these
repeated experiments had produced an
almost settled conviction in the minds
of list manufacturers that no successful
substitute for the mercury carrot could
be obtained. and that the evils and dan-
gers of the present methods tuust be en-
dured.
Every one who has been engaged iii
fur cutting or hot manufacturing has
become familiar with the effects of the
subtle and deadly mercurial poison of
the carrot. Skin diseases, sore mouth,
loosened teeth, rheumatic pains and
“shakes“ area few of the well~known
symptoms of its presence.
lti common with his fellow manufac-
turers Elmund Tweedy has long been
impressed by the great dangersto life
and health involved in the use of the
mercurial carrot. and has fully realized
what an immense benefit a non~poison~
ous substitute would be to all engaged
in preparing or using the fur: and be

in the English, French, Italian and Ger-

ject were consulted, but from them no
help was obtained. The subject has at-
tracted but few writers. and their state—
ments and theories are so indefinite and
contradictory, as only to lead to confu-
sion. It was therefore found it
to start the inquiry from the founda-
tion by an investigation of the structure
of the fur fibre. both internal and ex-
ternal. In this investigation thousands
of microscopical examinations were
made, and hundreds of photo~micro~
graphs taken. The information thus

THE TI'RANNY WHICH TKBEA'I‘ENB
AMERICAN INSTITUTIONS-
Rev. Dr. Todd of New Havo- ea Labor
organisations.
In the church of the Redeemer, in
New Haven. Sunday, Rev. Dr. Todd
spoke on “Liberty.” and concluded his
sermon as follows:
f‘Wben an association is formed. of
men who have entirely resigned their
personal liberty to it, and bound them-
selves to obey its behests. which says to '
its members. ‘You shall work when and
where and for what wages we say, and
not otherwise.‘ and . to others. ‘You
shall join us and obey us. or you shall
not work at all.‘ and to others. ‘You
shall neither join us nor have any work,
but on shall starve. and your viva-and
chil ten with you,“ and which requires
employers to bite those only whom it
selects, and to pay them what it do-
cremwdmahowtheirbooh upon its
demand, and which says bothers. ‘Yol
shalloeitborhuynor sell except a we
give you permission.‘ and when all this
is done without regard to law or consti-
tuiion. Without form of trial. without
any check whatever. simply by the de-
cree in council of irresponsible and un-
known men, the public ask whether this
is not a power as much more arbitrary
and despotic than that of the Emperor
of Russia. or that of the orligarchy of
Venice. or that of the Papacy in the pal~
my days of the Jesuits or the Inquisition,
as these have been more arbit than
our own free government. - 0 they
begin to ask where this thing is likely to
stop, and whether the tyranny now ex-
erctced in respect to certain things is not
likely to extend to others things, and
whether it is indeed true that there is to
be no more personal liberty.

an institution. In this grand old coun-
