Losing Joke.' A prominent physician of Pittsburg said to a lidy patient who was complaining of her continced ill health and of his inability to care her, Jokingly said: "Try Hop Bitters!" The lady took I; in earnest and used the Bitters, from which she Cbtained permanent health. She now laughed at tae doctor for his joke, but he Is not so well pleased with it, as it cost him a good patient. Fees of Io-tor.

TEAMSTER JIM.

It ain't jest the story, parsou, to tell in a crowd like this, Weth the virtuous matron a frowniu' an' chidia' the gigglin miss. An' the good old deacon a nod J in' in time weth his patient snores. An' the shock! aleet of the Capital, stalkin' away through the doors. But then, it's a story that happened, an' every word of it's true. An' sometimes we can't help talkin' of the thing we sometimes do. An' though good society coldly sheta its doors onto "Teamster Jim," I'm thiukiu' there's lots worse people thet's better known than him. I mind the 'lay he was married, an' I danced at the weddiu', too; An' 1 kiised the bride, swee wsgie daughter of lion Mclirew. I mind how they set up bonseneepin' two youag, KKr. happy foola. When Jim's only stock: was a heavy truck au four Kaintuckr mules. Well, tney lived along contented, weth their little joys au' cares. An' every year a baby come, an' twicet they come in pairs: Till the house was full of children, weth their shoutiu' and playin' and Bruals. An' their singin' aad laughin' an' cryin' made ealam.within Its walls. An Jim, he seemed to like it, and he spent all his evenin'i at home. He said it was full of music an' light, an' peace from pit to dome. He joined the church, an' he nsed to pray that bis heart might be kept from sin The stumblingest prayin' but heads and hearts used to bow when he'd begin. So they lived along in that way, the same from day to day. With plenty of time for drivin' work, an' a little time for play. An' growing around 'em the sweetest girls and the liveliest, manliest bovs. Till the old gray heads of the two old folks was crow ned with the homelier joys. Eh? Come to my story? Well, that's all. They're livin' just like 1 t-aid, Only two of the girls are married, and oue of the ).oys is dean. An" they're honest, au' decent an' happy, au" the very lest Christians, 1 kuow, Though I reckon in bnlli;iat company they'd be voted a leetle slow. Oh, you're pressed for time excuse you? Sure, I'm sorry 1 kept you bo long; Good bye. Now he looked kind o' bore like, an' 1 recke i that I was wrong To tell su;h commonplace btory of two seen commonplace lives, But we can't all git drunk and gamble an' fight, an' run off with other men's wives. Robert J. Burdetie. RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE AND INCIDENT. "Where there ih peace, is God. George Herbert. Believers only can decipher the shorthand of God's Providence. There are 117 Chinese Methodist church members in San Francisco. A Jewish "Keform Conference'-' has been called at Cincinnati for June 2s. The Mexico Methodist Conference reports 728 members and C33 probationers. The Tresbyterian Board of Education is free of debt, thanks mainly to legacies. The Methodist Bohemian missions in Chicago and Cleveland report 2-1G members. TLe Presbyterian General Assembly this j ear will contain about ISO commissioners. Revival meetings at Sardis, Miss., have recently resulted in the conversion of 200 persons. The corner-stone of the new Methodist college in 'ew Orleans will be laid on June 20. The New York Episcopal City Mission reports 1(0 public and 1W private services held, with an aggregate attendance of over 12,000 persons. There is nothing will make you a Chris tian indeed but a taste of the sweetness of Christ. "Come and see" will speak best to your soul. Samuel Rutherford. I walk amid the darkness. My war I can not see. But Uli I know it tendeth. O Father, uuto thee; And so I'll journey ouward, for thou art lead ing me. L.ucy neeiock. If we practice goodness, not for the sake of its own intrinsic excellence, but for the sake of gaining some advantage by it, we may be cuaning, but we are not good. Cicero. The religious tapers for the past two or three weeks have been very busy in discussing the labor troubles and other secular matters, and Lave given less space than usual to merely theological questions. The Evangelist publishes a letter by Rev. J. R, Miller. D.D., of Piladelphia.cn "Sensational Preaching." He thinks that the only sensationalism that can be productive of good in preaching is the sensationalism of intense earnestness in the presentation of the simple Gospel of Christ. The Eaptist church at Newton. Ma3s.. has hired a "musical pastor," who is to have en tire charge of the music of the church and Sunday-school. Instead of hiring a quartet or choir, the purpose is to turn over to him the work of developing from the congregation a volunteer gathering of singers, and thus to have eventually congregational singing of a hitherto unknown quality. Some of the religious papers want the clergy to stop giving out notices of fairs, bazaars, excursions, tableaus, meetings, ser mons, etc., on the ground that it is a relic of of a non-reading age, just as the bell is a relic ol an age wncn there were lew or no watches and clocks in any community. Possibly this is true enough, and certainly a great many notices are given out in churches that have little to do with either religion or morality. But at least one thing can be said in favor of giving out notices; they often add a personal element to the service, which interests a great many people. Mr. Euskin, in a recent letter, refers as follows to the Bible: "Let me tell your readers who care to known in the fewest possible words what it is. It is the grandest group of writings existent in the rational world, put into the grandest language of the rational world in the first strength of the Christian faith by an entirely wise and kind saint, St. Jerome, translated afterward with beauty and felicity into every language of the Cbiistian world, and th guide since so translated of all the arts and acts of that world which have been noble, fortunate, and happy. And by consultation of it honestly on any serious business you may learn, along while before your parliament finds out, what you should do. in such business, and be directed, perhaps, besides to work more serious than you had thought of." There is a discussion going on in England as to the merits of the system of itinerancy as practiced by the Methodist churches. The London Methodist Times says that it is "most successfully emptying our large chapels in town and country." It stigmatizes the custom as one of "our stereotyped and old fashioned methods of activity, against which the ever growing democracy of other cities revolts every year more and more." The same paper declares that "we have hitherto done nothing in an adequate scale to adapt our operations to the totally changed condition of English society. Hence our halt empty chapels, although the evangelical Gospel which we preach was never so popular and attractive to English men as it is to-day." The churchman com menting on this says that the reason for this emptying of Methodist churches is that the Church of Kngland has now so thoroughly adapted herjelf to the wants of every class of the community that the occupation of the Methodist local preacher is well nigh gone. LITTLE FOLKS SAYINGS. Horace was standing in the upjer ball doing something which hi3 mother disapproved of and ordered stopped. He continued at it alter one or two prohibitions and finally she started towards him.

There was a three year old child in Phila delphia last year who had heard her parents discuss hygiene until her infant mind was soaked with the subject, Then one day her dear old grandmother said meaning to give Bessie a piece of cake "Bessie, what do you always have after your bath?" The child regarded her grandmother a moment with inquiring eyes, and then replied: "Reaction!" Philadelphia Bulletin. "I want some preserves on my bread," whined a boy to his mother. "You mustn't have it, Johnny," coaxed the mother. "That nice butter ana sugar is just the thing for little boys." "Wow, wow," he howled: "I won't have it.

The New York Tribune observes that this is the time of the year when the voice of the average boy experiences strange mutations. In school when he is called upon to declaim a "piece" it is often impossible to hear him ten feet away. Hut In the very same auernorn his voice can be heard all over the base ball grounds and clear over the fence, as he wildly yells, "Go now, you've got to go."

One cannot do better than close with a Sunday-school story showing how the talk about the president's marriage has aSected even the babes and sucklings. In the school attached to the church at which Mr. Cleveland often worships, a class ol small girls was on last Sunday being diverted with the pretty parable of "The Wise and Foolish Vireins." After the story had been told the teacher thought it wise to question his pupils to ascertaid how muca they remembered. "What did the wise virgins do?" he .sked. "They lit their lamps and married the President of the United States," promptly rejoined a little tot of a girl innocent of a knowledge of polygamy and rather more familiar with fairy tales than the scriptures. Thirty-two years ago the father of Alexander Bailes died, and after the estate had been settled, as was supposed, some papers and family relics were locked in a chest and given to the care of the boy's grandmother.

The queen haa asked that Oliver Wendell Holmes be presented to her. A woman eiehtv-two years of age made final proof on a Quarter section of Kansas land last week. It was a characteristic remark of President Lincoln about common people, that "God must like them because he makes so many of them." We have occasionally wondered that some enterprising American does not start a paper containing nothing but head lines. W e are sure many Americans read nothing else in their papers. Toronto eeJt.

Lucy Larcom "While practicing law -a number of years ago," says Judge Tourgee, "I had a peculiar will case. An old lady who was a slave holder, dying, bequeathed her colored man, John, and her dusky maid, Jane, who sus tained to each other the relation ol husband and wife, to the trustees of the church, 'to be used as far as possible fcr the glory of God.' I was curious to know what course was taken', and upon investigation found that, after meditation and prayer, the pious trustees sold their living legacy at auction, and with the proceeds sent a missionary out to China." Whittier wrote a note to the manager of a carnival of authors" in Scran too, Fa., recently, to guide them in making up the scene of "Snowbound," which he thus describes: "The great kitchen of "Snowbound" had old-fashioned, straight-backed chairs, a small and large rocking-chair both covered witn paten a desk in one corner with a few old books on it, a large round table in front of the great fireplace, all of maple. A small bedroom occumed one end. against the partition of which hung two warming pans. I heie was no carpet on the floor, but one or two braided mats. A small linen spinning wheel was usually occupying a pisce in a niche made by the projection of the chimney. A cupboard with old crockery and chinaware was a conspicious object." The American Congress of Churches as sembles at Cleveland, Ohio, May 25-27. Governor Foraker will preside, and make the opening address Tuesday afternoon, 3th, at 3 o'clock. The address of welcome will be given by Kev. Dr. Ladd, of Cleveland. The first discussion will be, a "True Church; Its Lssentials and Characteristics. This discussion will be introduced by papers from distinguished divines. At the evening session Tuesday, the discussion will be upon "lleligion and Uur Public Schools. Papers on this topic will be read by the ltev. C. H. rarfcmirst, V. v., and Judee J. M. muh, ol Buffalo. Addresses will also be given by the Kt. Itev. II. Gilmore, Boman Catholic Bishop, of Cleveland, and the Ilev. J. Coleman Adams, of Chicago. The programme for Wednesday and Thursday will include pa pers and discussions on "The Present Necessity for a Bestatement of Christian Beliefs," "Ihe workingman s distrust of the churuh; Its Causes and Remedies," and "Readjustments in the church to Meet Modern Needs." with other topics and addresses. This Con gress is the same that met last year In Hartford. It is entirely unsectarian ia its methods, and invites discussion of its important themes from the standpoint of the church universal, with the lareest possible expression ot personal conviction. ANOTHER STRIKE. The Modest Demands Made by the School Boys of Frog's Corners. Texas Sittings. But the climax came one morning when the teacher found himself alone in tho citadel of learning, and all the scholars out on a strike. They had assembled on the "ereen" in front of the school-house, and uttered de risive cheers as he frantically rang the bell for school to "come in." Then he tried per suasion, afterward threats said he would send for the "Trustees" but none of these means availing, he wisely concluded to await events. Finally, after consultation, a deputation of boys advanced somewhat guardedly to the school-house door, where they were confronted by the amazed and irate master, who demanded to know the cause of this mutinous and threatening demonstration. A big boy, who headed the delegation, spoke up and said: e ve struck, a l that s all tnerc is about it. We've got gri varices and we've resolved that this ere school ahall tie up until they're righted." Then he presented the following list of reforms demanded, which he said must be ac ceded to or the strike would be indefinitely continued: 1. A reduction of the hours of study. 2. An increase In the periods of recess. 3. Noon to begin at 11 o'clock and extend to 1:30 or 2, according to the condition of the weather. 4. School shall let out any afternoon when there is a base ball match or a circus within fifteen miles. 5. Any scholar who wants a "reward of merit" to carry home to his parents can have it at wholesale cost price. (. Ferrules to be made of soft wood. 8. The old-time custom of punishing boys by compelling them to sit with the girls shall be immediately restored. . A boy who holds up his ngnt nand ana says, "Please, sir, may I go out?" shall be al lowed to go, whether it be necessary or not. 0. The number of boys allowed to go and fetch a pail of water shall be increased from two to four, with proper allowance for time consumed in going and coming. 10. No boy shall be punished for offensive words spoken in debate with another boy. 11. While believing in arbitration on general principles, we insist that two boys who have a grudee to settle shall be allowed to fight it out between themselves. No teacher need apply a whip on account of it. 12. A boy who tells on another boy shall be boycotted. IS. No bey shall be kept in after school except at his own request, as when another boy is lying in wait to lick him. Tennessee Congressman. St. Louis Globe Democrat. Congressman Leonidas Houk has the distinction of being the first member on the Bepublican side to be renominated. Naturally, Mr. Houk is being much congratulated, but he doesn't seem to be as happy as he ought over the pleasant certainty of another term. He is a typical East Tennesseean, lean aud leathery, with a sallow, deeplyseamed face. Just now the line3 are more strongly drawn, and the Congressman has a nervous, agitated manner and a worried look unusual to him. "Yes, thank you," he says in response to the mention of his good luck. Then almost immediately he changes the subject and goes on like this: "Do you know, I smoked my last cigar at ! o'clock last Monday morning? It'saiact. 1 haven t had a smoke since. I quit once before in 1870, and didn't touch tobacco until 1SS2, when I had a big campaign on, and thought I it. ut have something to brace up with. Talk about the hold whiskey gets on a man? I tell you one can have the delirium tremens from tobacco. I know it, for I've had 'em. Do you know what tobacco made me do once? I'll tell yon. I jumped in tlie river in February, and swam around till' I got cooled off, 11 on account of tobacco. I am done with the weed now, for good." With the announcement of his determination the Congressman's face takes, on a look

cf determination, which reveals his possession of spartan firmness. He has a strange history, starting with less than three months' schooling of the sort furnished by the old field Bchools in Tenne3see before the war. He read law books at the fireplace at nieht and thought of what he had read as he plied the tools of a cabinetmaker in the daytime. Starting in political life as a member of the East Tennessee Loyal Convention of 1864, I&ßpäbyhi3 Union principles in Tenrtftre regiments. Since the war he has been a circuit judge, a delegate to two or three National Republican Conventions, as often on the electorial ticket of Tennessee, a member of the Constitutional Convention, and also of tbe Southern Claims Commission, and is now serving his fourth term in Congress on a majority of over 10,000 votes. With such men as Leoni J as Houk in public life Tennessee is honored.

My mother in my boyhood day Taught me a wiser art for play: Selecting from the kitcheu store A lozen tubers less or more With wooden pegs she joined them neat, And lo, a manikin complete: Her "little lrih boy,'' she said. With feet, legs, body, arms, and head. Of course the feet, you must suppose, Made of potafor, sure had tot. The large pn-tuber-ant heaJ, likewise, Was well supplied with proper eyes.

Special to the New York Sun.l After considerable trouble your corres pondent ferreted out the Lockport gentleman who had the honor of first winning Miss Frankie Folsom's regard during her school days at Medina, and interviewed him brieuv duxiner an omnibus ride to-dav. When asked to relate something of Frankie's Medina life, with particular reference to himself, he said: "I suppose I could give you material for a very entertaining story if I chose, but I fear that cold type might put a wrong construction on some things I might say. which I would not have happen for the world. Those were gay times, those school day9 in Medina. I met Miss i'olsoru some time ago and we enjoyed a good laugh reviewing old reminiscences. You know Frankie's lelitives never did like me very well, and the way they used to hamper tbat poor eirl with restiictions called foith all the ingenuity both of us possessed to evade them, borne of the schemes we used to work to meet one an other out from under the paternal eye are laughable as I look back on them now, though they seemed serious enough then, but many of them resulted disastrously be cause of Jb rankies entire lack: of the first princpiles of deceit. If Bhe met me by apparent accident at the home of some mutual friend and it came to the ears of her relative, she would deaiurely tell the Strict truth if questioned, and then I wouldn't have a chance to see her again for a month. Do I think the match one of mutual admiration? Well. I don't know. I surmise that Frankie's relatives had as much to do with, its making as any one. They were always ambitious. That's one reason I didn't find favor in their eyes in my youth. No I don't envy Orover now, although he is to marry as beautiful, accomplished, lovable, and noble-spirited a lady as our nation can boast of. Yes, I am a bachelor yet, but you might mention that my early regards for the bride elect has nothing to do with the case. I stop here. So good-by. Don't print my name. And he avoided further questionin by hurrying oh board the train. The Height of Mad netto. Chicago News.l As if a renomination of James O.

A T AT3L TBIA2. 1HTEEB.E HAUTE. The nineteenth century is said to be the age of skepticism, and so perhaps it is as regards religion, but its practical spirit in clinea it to look favorably on everything that promises immediate benefit and it is always ready to give everything that seems useful a fair trial. The West especially has ever been open and cordial to all new ideas, and this may partly explain why Athlophoros, the sovereign remedy for rheumatism and neuralgia, has secured Euch a strong footing in Terre Haute. A well-known citizen who has the most implicit faith in it is Mr. R. Forster, the furniture dealer at No. 320 Main 6treet, Mr. Forster, when recently asked at his warerooms as to the benefit he had derived from Athlophoros, answered as follows : " Yes, I have used Athlophoros with the very best satisfaction. I have had neural gia for many years, and could not find any medicine that would give me relief until I commenced using Athlophoros, and I can. tell you I had used about everything." "How did yon first get confidence enough in Athlophoros to try it?" "Well, it was just in this way. I was Buffering very much at the time from my neuralgia. One Saturday evening Mr. Mallette, a manufacturer of wire mat tresses, who is in business in Chicago, and lives at Elgin, 111., came down to spend Sunday with me. Finding me suffering as I was he said : "'Get some Athlophoros. It is good, my wife used it and was cured of her neuralgia by it.' " Without waiting for me to say much about it he went out and bought a bottle of the medicine. I took some that night and the next day I was as free from pain as if I had never had neuralgia. I spent several hours in a walk that Sunday with Mr. Mallette, which the day before would have been misery for me. During the summer months I am never troubled with neuralgia, but if I 6hould be again I would certainly use Athlophoros, for I am fully convinced of its merits. "I have recommended Athlophoros to Beveral persons and have yet to learn of an instance where it did not accomplish its mission. Among others I recommended it to Mrs. Richards, who lives ia Casey, 111. I saw her in the city a few days ago and asKed her if she had used it. Bhe said that she had taken two bottles. It was helping her, and she said that she was going to get some more," Mrs. C. A. Armstrong, of No. 123 South Second street, is another resident of Terre Haute, Ind., whom Athlophoros has cured. "I used it for neuralgia," Ehe says, "and it cured rne. I had been troubled for about three years with what seemed at times neuralgia, and then again rheumatism. I was never free from pain. The very first dose of Athlophoros I took gave me relief, and after using only two bottles my soreness is all gone and I am feeling much stronger. My daughter was also cured of neuralgia by it." "Yes, I can say Athlophoros did everything for me," is the daughter's statement. "I was 60 sick with neuralgia that I could not sit up and suffered the greatest pain. Mother sent me ft half bottle of Athlophoros, the first few doses of which, gave me relief. All I used was the half bottle and I have not tad any neuraleia since.

In a great many cases a single dose has been sufficient for a care, and whole facSlias have been cared by a single bottle, with a perfect restoration of the general health.. It if, however, prudent, and in every case more certain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease hat been checked, more especially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will not require any aid to keep the bowels ia good order.
