LITTLE SERMONS.

The first and worst of all frauds is to cheat oneself. The solemn thought of the tomb is the skeleton at every feast.

He is no true friend who has nothing but compliments and praise for you. Prosperity makes a fool weaker and a wise man stronger, and adversity does the same.

It is not difficult to do good, for the means are constantly clustering about every man's lips and hands.

If a man desires many things he* Is exalted by hope, but If he fears many things he becomes a slave.

Don't be wondering what people say about you, but do your duty, and have a kindness in your heart that shows itself in your face.

If only all the gentleness, love and devotion that are so freely lavished upon the dead, 'were bestowed upon the living, what a happy world this might be made How, then, can we bettor ahow our love and grief for our dear departed ones than by striving to render happy those who still are spared to bless us with their love?

Envious people are to be sincerely pitied. They are for the moat part ungrateful, impotent, mean, proud and malicious they lie under a double misfortune common calamity and common bleccdngs fall heavy upon them nature gives them a share in the first, and their ill-nature in the latter and having their own trouble, and the happiness of their neighbors to disturb them, they need no other ingredients of ,• i' i.

Other People.

The pay of doctors in China is from five to ten cents a visit, and they are kept exceedingly busy. Here's a pointer for idle physicians in this country.

Wawkeen Miller says that if Divine Providence is willing he will stop writing. Let hope that D. P. will throw no obstacle in the way of so laudable a resolution.

Senator Thurman*s son, speaking of his father entering the Cabinet, said: "There is no power on earth that will ever get father to accept any political position. This much I am sure of. He is done with politics, and forever.

Yes, Guiteau's curse is working havoc among his enemies. Corkhill is dead, and so are several others that he cursed. There is no doubt that before 100 years have passed every man whom Guiteau hated will have come to an untimely end. fp

Evangelist" Munhall is conducting a mild revival in Denver, not without criticism. He pitched into his critics the other night. "Some people would find fault with Jeltis," said he, "and

some

with the angel Gabriel. I am not a perfect man by any means.'' I believe it, said an old man emphatically.

W. W. Cole is the only circus manager in the country who travels with a private family car. It was fitted up by Mrs. Cole, and is a model of taste and comfort. Mr. W. W. Cole is probably the the most prosperous manager in America. Besides his own colossal snow, he is one of owners of the Barnum show. He is also a heavy real estate owner in Chicago. He is one of the youngest managers in the world.

It is curious how the World will scrub along without a piece of important information and how at last some enterprising fellow suddenly finds it out and make a whole nation happy. There is

Buck" Grant for instance. Everybody for years back has been wondering why he was called "Buck." At last a Denver reporter solved the mystery by simply asking him. It seems that when the Grant family moved into Ohio when he was a boy they nicknamed him "The Little Buckeye." "Buck" is all that now remains of the nickname.

WOMAN'S WORD FOR EQUAL JUSTICE. ,, Editor Saturday Evening Mail:

Here area few thoughts on the reading of some of our social crimes committed lately. "Sarah Walden, who by an understood arrangement, plead guilty to manslaughter was sentenced to twenty years in the Women's reformatory. The woman is a weak minded creature, who, all her life, has boen a stranger to good influences." This is quoted from last week's Mail.

Has the State the right to lot $ny child grow up under its protection without subjecting them to some good influences? Some good might be done in that direction by compulsory education. I wonder if the father of Sarah Walden's child was also weak minded and never been subjected to any good influences? Why not hunt him up and give him twenty years in a men's reformatory? If in these cases, men, the first authors of these crimes, were dealt with the same as the women, methinks the effect would be beneficial on society. Woman seldom sins socially without her higher nature is drawn out and the love for her husband and children, which God has so deeply implanted in her bosom, is generally the main spring of her degradation. She Is under all circumstances punished. The Zulu parent throws her and her child from a precipice or ties her to the ground and lets her be eaten by the African ant, thus prolonging her suffering until reason is dethroned and the poor victim of men's passion dies at last a raving maniac. Civilized parents throw their daughters guilty of missteps down the precipice of social contcmpt, thereby many times plunging them deeper and deeper into the abyss of social destruction, sanctioned in some of our cities by the law. Nature sets infallible on her throne and punishes the same sin, -whether, committed by man or woman, alike.

Will the time ever come when we will have but one moral law for both sexes? Is it a wonder if a woman, deserted by the father of her child and her parents, scorned by society, becomes, in passing through this terrible ordeal, in line and a murderess? We are not any more civilized than our Zulu sisters while we permit such one-sided judgments. Here about four miles from town, a man forty years old, takes, during the absence of the stepmother, advantage of a child ten years old and gives her a horrible social disease. I wonder if the same calamity had been inflicted on the esquire's own ten-year-old daughter, if he then wdnld have put this miscreant under a thou sand dollar bond, thereby enabling him, if he could have raised the money, to go somewhere else and commit the same crime? Or would his parental love have told him that such a fiend in human form ought not to be allowed to have the least chance of going unpunished?

rise in a body and

demand of our Legislators tojnss a law which will inflict the only effectual punishment on such fiends and make them harmless. It may be your hild to-day, It may be mine to-morrow it is hard to tell when and where girls are safe. Let us as mothers act on the precept "to do unto others as we wish to be done by," and we will ere long have no such crimes to report. The man who takes the advantage over a woman social ly, because circumstances favor him, has a heart so black that no good woman ever ought to allow, him to cross her threshhold.
