Sam'y sarcasm is ad strong as a philippic that my grandmother heard Lorenzo Dow utter against Aaron Burr in one of his great: Wildertoss meetings seventy years ago. ** n Burr was accused of being a traitor," said my grandmother, ""t ordinary colonial preachers were afraid to de- nounce the aristocrat.

Why, 1 could take the little end of nothing, whittled down to a point, punch out the pith of a hair and put in ferty thousand 'such souls as his, shake 'em and they'd rattle." Moody, the great evangelist, often used wit with his theology. Once an agnostic went to Moody on the train and tried to open au theological wran- gle with him. "You don't believe the old Noah- and-the-flood story, Moody, do you?" he said, dropping a quid of tobacco behind the steam pipes. "Yes," said Moody, "and, brother I believe in the Johustown flood, too, where eighteen thousand were eating and drinking and the flood came and took them off. Christ said that 'when He came again it would be as in the days of Noah.' . "And the whale story too? Do you believe that, Moody ?" "Now, my brother," said Moody, goes your 'corner grocery' the oy again ! Don't you know that a whale ? It says: 'And God repared a great fish," and if God could make the universe; if He could say: 'Let there be light, and there was light, " fish ?' The world, brother, is a mira- elo, the violet is a miracle, man is a miracle, the fish is a miracle--and God made all of them." "And the story of Balaam and that the ass spoke, do you believe that, too? Do you believe it, when scien. tists have examined the mouth of an ass and they say it is Jhysicully im- possible for him to speak 7" "To this T answer," said Moody re- vevently : "If you will make an ass I will make him speak and--" "Why," interrupted a clerovman, "this man has made himself an ass, and vou have made him speak.' This, incident and joke occurred when her was writing the first volume of his "Life of Christ," His Publishers sent to him a big terrestrial globe, and the happy preacher was taking it up to his Peek- skill farm. It was a beauty--four feet in diameter, with mountains and riv- ers in relief, ile Beecher was admiring his mini- ature world and showing Dr. Stores where Moses crossed the Dead Sea, Ingersoll came into the car, and walk- ing up to the globe exclaimed : "Why, Mr. Beecher, what a beauti- ful world So artistic! It's the real world, only smaller. Where did you wit ? Who made it ? "Who made it?" repeated Beecher, "who it, Bob? Why, no one made it. It just happened 1" e still for a minute, then, takin Beech- e's hand, said solemnly : . * y it's on me."

So year the county spent about $20,000 "in the purchase of the toll roads, and this year intends to expend $30,000 in improving the couny ty road system. From the provincial treasury the county will receive $27, 000." But let me add. Lanark will pro- fit by this investment. Frontenac pre- fers to literally stick in the mud; to let its progressive population move to more en iting regions, the value of its farms to decrease, and the diffi- culty of obtaining farm labor to be- come so burdensome that elderly farmers sell out the first opportunity and move into cities or villages to end their days in retirement. Good roads, the first necessity of civilized life, would bring in a new order. When will this enter the minds of old Fron- tenac.--RUSTICUS.

I think there is in this legend, If we. open our eyes to .see Somewhat of an inner meaning, My friend, for you -and me So, thea, let us ponder a little: Let us look in our hearts and sec If the twilight tell of the angels Can ring for you and we. ---------- Choosing The Girl. A curious custo has just been ccle- brated at Klin, near Moscow. All the marriageable girls in the town lined up in the principal streets, deck- ed out 'in their ample finery, many of them also having with them the stock of linem, household and re sonal, which forms part of their dowry. The young men contemplating matrimony, then walked down the sertied ranks of beauty as they moved towards the church and se lected the girls of their choice. A formal visit to the parents to ar range details was then made in each case, and a date fixed for the cere mony. Dog Farming. In Manchuria dog-raising is prac- tised upon pretty puch the same scale as shoep-farming in dwtrglia o proportionate to population, ol course. . A bride docs not take her dowry in specie or in land.

The animals serve as meat for human consumption; their magni- ficent comnts are converted into rugs and what not. Forty to fifty thou- sand are so treated every year. His Name Still Lives.
