The Deacon of the Fold.

BY ARTHUR L. ROGERS. A bashful man was Benny Jones, Who had such winning ways

That folks were never weary whilk Their words were in his praise,

He was never known to chuckle, no Not even when & child;

’

And was known to all his neighbors as

The man that never smiled,

The wicked ways of youth

He had no naughty tongings for PAR $a x ¢’ PU RCATIVE oo Ph LLS And his candor eas lesan ‘ | MAKE NEW, RICH BLOOD. |

To the enemies of truth,

He was so very zealous in His piety, we’re told, That the veetrymen appointed him The deacon of the fold.

The ladies fairly petted him, He led in all the psalms, | And the parson looked upon him As a shepherd ‘mong his lambs.

Bat ah, the wily serpent came With sweet, deceptive tongue,

And left two Bibles lonely in The class where Benny sung.

For one Sunday morning, early. "T'was reported by a few That the parson’s wite was missing, And the parson’s money, too |

And as Ben was minus, also, ’T was conjectured at the time Both had sailed in search of converts To some less enlightened clime.

That deaconship is vacant now— It has been go of late— And this is what old Parson Brown Has written on the gate:

“ My brethern, shun the Evil One, Keep clear of all his wiles, And on an equal footing hold The man who never smiles.”

The Building of Character. There is nota thought that is not | str iking a blow ; there is not au impulse that is not doing mason-work ; there is not @ passion thrust this way or that that is nota workman’s thrust. The imagination in all directions is build- iog. You think that you are throwing owt the net for game; you think that you are laying plans for your accom- plishment; but back of all the con- scious work that-is going on in you, back of your visible attainments, that is another work going on. There are as many master-workmen in you as there are separate faculties; and there areas many blows beiog -struck as there are separate acts of emotion or of volition. And this work is going on perpetually. Every single day these myriad forces are building, building,| — building. Hereis a great structure going up, point by point, story by story, although you are not conscious of it. It is a building of character. It is a build- ing that must stand, and the work of inspiration warns us to take heed how you build it, to seetoit that you have a foundation that shall endure; to make sure that you are build- ing on-it, not for the hour ino which you live, but for that hour of revelation, that hoar of testing, when that which had been done shall be brought out, and you shall be brought out, andshall be seen just as you are.

Why He Got Married.

i | ' i

i

Silas in a country character, who means well. He tries to earn a liv- ing, and “tinkers around” at odd jobs and chores and whatever he can get to do, but he worksa good deal as he talks, with a painful drawl that is very suggestive of that state of natural rest- fulness which his ilk can, “born tired.” Silas came to mend a fence the other day for one of his patrons in the subur- ban village where he belongs, with a peculiar air of festivity about him. He had ona bright new neck-tie of blue Japanese silk, and his honest face was covered by an expressive grin all the time that he was recsiving his

orders.

‘Youseem happy, Silas,” said Mr. Blank, with some curi sity, when ho| had finished about the fence.

‘Ya-as,” drawled Silas. “Ya-as, I’ve | been a gitten’ married this morning’.”

“Married! You? Why, Silas, man |

ative, what on earth have you gone and done that for? You can’t support your- | self ae it is!

“Wull,” said Silas, “I kea near support myself, ‘n’ I think its a| durn pityif she can’t help some!” Boston Record,
