Some of Reed's democratic friends claim that ail the talk that has gone the rounds about his alleged crookedness has really helped him, but it is hara to see how it could have such an effect. At anyrate the friends of C. B. Waite, the republican nominee, are redoubling their energics in taking advan- tage of the anti-Reed agitation,and his prospects for success are considered good.

At the First Presbyterian church yester- day morning the pastor, Rev. J. M. Patter- son, preached on the parable of the leaven. The parable of the leaven teaches specifi- cally four lessons: First—The need of a power exterior to man to bring him to his high destiny. Mr. Patterson did not dwell upon the doctrine of total depravity, but discussed the so-called doctrine of evolution. He acknowledged there was much in_it, but also claimed thav in the sphere of morals evolution was quite to result in degeneration as in jon. He cited the facts of famil ine_and civil government as eviden that people do not believe it is safe to leave men with license to do as they please,” The leaven did not belong to the meal, but was a foreign element introduced: so the gospel was brought by Christ and hid in man, ho second lesson is that this gospel leaven oprates from within outward. ‘Lhe leaven must be put in the meal, not on top of it. So the gospel must find lodgment in the human heart. Its chief concern is with 1t does not tell men to quit_their s, to reform, to lop off this and that but to be converted, to give their art to God. The work that begins thus ends in a revolution of the life. The third lesson teaches that the leaven works by assimilation. It does not change the meal into something else, does not turn the corn meal into wheat flour, but1t leavens it all, imparts its own charactsr to the ele- ments s it finds them. So the gospel does not impart any new elements of ch but sanctities those 1t finds. It does not malke Peter over into John or Mary into Martha. It did not make David a musician, but it did make him the sweet singer of Israel. Itdid not make Moses & great gen- eral, but it did make him the leader of Isruel. It simply consecrates man's natural talents and tendencies and makes him a God-fearing man with all his peculiar tastes and tend- encies. Fourth—The parable teaches the com- pleteness of the work of grace. The leaven ceases not to operate till it effects every particle of the meal. So grace won' till 1t makes a saint out of the vilest :inrver, This work of muking man holy 15 very slow. Life isalways slow. Death alouc is sudden. But though slow, 1t is certair, Holiness shall be written over the brain and heart and character of the Christian Then this suggests the universal sway of Christ. A little leaven leaveneth the wholo lump. This is the ouly leaven adapted to allmen. It isthe only one that makes its way by 1ts present utility.

Of the little group who stood laughing in front of the Curtin house last Sunday morn- ing four were killed and one so badly maimed that death could come only as a blessing. The boy alone survived with nothing worse than a shock and bruises that will soon pass away. **How does it feel to be blown§up with dynamite?” he said, in answer to the question. **Well, I can hardly tell you. You see, it's g0 gudden, It's over just about the time you begin to un tand that something'is happening. You know 1 had the satchel in my hand, and had put it down. Then I got afraid of it. All at once everything was light. 1 don't think I saw the flash. Anyway, my face was not exactly toward the explosion. But then everything got light, lighter than day—kind of blinding. There was an awful crash. I was scared, of course, and wanted to get away. It was just as if I was having a nightmare. ome way, though, I knew just what the matter was. A man can think faster than he has any idea of. 1 knew that some of the others were nearer the plosion, and Isaid to myself: ‘They'r blown overboard, sure.’ u under- stand this was all in a second, all at once, really, Then it was exactly the same as if I had been hit with a club. [ thought it was & big club, bigger than any man could swi and that it must be worked by machinery. It hit me on the head and all over. 1 went sailing into the air a long, long way. My ears roared and the wind blew into my fuce, *I knew when I struck the ground, for I remember saying to myself:* ‘Well, I'm done for." Idon't know just when I jost my right senses or when they came back. It seemed queer that I was there yet. I thought I had been thrown somewhere else. I could feel fire burn- ing me. Itwas my clothes. They were smoking and almost blazing. “I was lame all over, and could not hear very well. My voice sounded like somebody else was talking. That's all | can tell you about being blown up, 1 Just wonder that it didn't kill me like 1t did the others. ey Milesinn Misapprehension, The Boston Budget tells a story of two Irishmen who were tramping aloug the road near Manchester. One of them uld not read at all: the other could read only sufficiently well to be proud of airing his accomplishment before his companion. Their journeyings had brought them into the ueighborhuod of Manchester-by-the-Sea. l’l'e-cutli they encountered a sign post. Mike stopped to read it and Pat stopped to hear him. Now the sign was very simple and it said *Manchester, Seven Miles,” but it seemed to bother Mike and he looked puzzled. Pat waited until his patience gave out. “What does it say?"” he demanded. Mon-chased-h returned Mike, slow *Mon chased her siven woiles,” Pat picked up his bundle in disgust. he remarked, “'if he wanted her that bad Oi hope to hivin he got her.” R Jure indigestion and biliousn2ss with De Witt's Little Early Risers. e Sleigh Bell ‘The varieties of sleigh bells this season will be larger than ever and mauufac- Castoria is Dr. Samuel Pitcher's prescription for Infants and Children, It contains neither Opium, Morphine nor other Narcotic substance, for Paregoric, Drops, Soothing Syrups, and Castor Oil.
