RETRIBUTION.
If there's something that you know about a brother
Something spiteful something hurtful you can say
Then 1 beg you not to do it;
You are very sure to rue it
For it will react upon yourself some day.
The injustice you inflict upon another
The Ingratitude you show unto a friend
Don't forget on some tomorrow
Will return to you in sorrow;
And will be repaid with interest in the end
MARRIAGE.
Whom therefore God hath Joined to.
get her let not innu mt asunder.
Don't imagine you can shirk a retribution;
Do not think you escape a moral debt.
He who tramples on his neighbor
He who grinds the face of labor
Can but reap a bitter harvest of regret.
You may seek in craven fear for absolution
But your selfishness will render it in vain
If you think but of evasion
For the evils you occasion
You will find the pain you give returned in pain.
It is true the Master gave to the promise
Of atonement for the sins of human-kind;
But love is the only entrance
To the kingdom of Repentance;
And the thoughtof self must vanish from the mind.
We must drive desire and low ambition from us;
We must help our struggling brothers to arise
If we wish to be forgiven
We will find the road to heaven
In the hard and thorny path of sacrifice.
--J. A. Edgarton in Rcckv Mountain News.

A handsome bay 15 3-4 hands high will make the

Ranger was sired by Rabelais 1113 Rabelais by
the famous Belmont 64 and out of Repose.
Ranger R is out of Mattie Mont and she by Nor-
wood Star 1395 and out of Daisy H.
You may hunt the country over and you can't find
better blood than flows in Ranger; being a grandson
of Belmont brings him at once in touch with all
that arc familiar with trotting stock.
C. P. Money.
Infidelity to the marriage cov
enant is the social scourge to
all races "the pestilence tha
walketh in darkness . . . the
destruction that wasteth at
noonday." The commandment
"Thou shalt not commi
adultery" is no less itnperativ
than the other "Thou shalt not
kill."
Unastity is the backbone o
civilization and progress. With
out it there is no stability in so
ciety and it would be impossi
ble to attain the Science of Life
Union of the masculine and
feminine qualities seems requi
site for completeness. The
masculine mind reaches a higher
tone by communion with the
feminine while the feminine
mind gains courage and strength
by communion with the mascu
line. These different individu
alities meet and need each other
and their true harmony is in
spiritual oneness. Both sexes
should be loving pure tender
and strong. The attraction be
tween man and woman will be
perpetual only as it is pure and
true bringing sweet renewals
like the returning spring.
Beaut- wealth and fame are
incompetent to meet the de
mands of affection and should
never weigh agaiust the better
claims of intellect goodness
and virtue. Happiness is spirit
ual born of Truth and Love. It
is unselhsh; therefore it cannot
exist aloue but requires an ob
ject on which to rest.
Human affection is not poured
forth vainly even though it
meet no return. Love enriches
the nature enlarging purifying
and elevating it. The wintry
blasts of earth may uproot the
flowers of affection and scatter
them to the winds; but this sev
erance of fleshly ties serves to
unite thought more closely to
God for Love supports the
struggling heart until it ceases
to sigh over the world and be
gins to unfold its winjrs for
Heaven.
Marriage is unblest or blest
according to the disappoint
ments it involves or the hopes
it fulfils. To happify existence
by constant intercourse with
those adapted to elevate it
should be the motive in mar
riage. Wedlock gives new pin
ions to iov or else causes its
drooping wings to trail in dust.
Ill arranged notes produce
discord. Tones of the human
mind may be different but they
should be concordant in order
to blend properly. Unselfish
ambition noble life-motives
and pure happiness these dif
ferent elements of the humaD
mind meeting and mingling
constitute true marriage. In
such union there is strength and
permanence.
Let there be moral freedom
in wedlock. Never contract the
horizon of a worthy outlook by
the selfish exaction of all an-
other's time and thoughts. With
additional joys benevolence
should grow more diffusive. The
narrowness and jealousy which
would confine a wife or husband
forever within four walls will
not promote the sweet inter-
change of confidence and love:
but on the other hand a wan-
dering desire for incessant
amusement outside the home
circle is a poor augury for the
happintssof wedlock. Home is
the dearest spot on earth and
it should be the centre though
not the boundary of the affec-
tions. Said the peasant bride to her
lover: "Two eat no more to;
gether than they eat separate-
ly. " This is a hint that a wife
ought not to court vulgar ex-
travagance or stupid ease be-
cause another supplies her
wants Wealth may obviate
the necessity for toil and ill-
nature in the marriage relation
but nothing can abolish its
cares.
"She that is married caretU
for her husband how she may
please him" says the 'Bible;
and this is the pleasantest thing
to do. Matrimony should be
entered into with a full recog-
nition of its enduring obliga-
tions on both sides. There
should be the most tender so-
licitude for each other's happi-
ness and mutual approbation
should wait on all the years of
married life.
Mutual compromises will often
maintain a compact which might
otherwise become unbearable.
Man should not be required to
participate in all the annoyan-
ces and cares of domestic econ-
omy nor should woman be ex-
pected to understand political
economy. Fulfilling the dif
ferent demands of their united
spheres their sympathies may
blend in comfort and cheerful
ness each partner sustaiuing
the other thus hallowing the
union of interests and affections
wherein the heart finds peace.

Mother put on her Sunday best
Her Ulnc wedding sown
And white straw bonnet neatly tied
With strings of faded brown;
We woke before the rooster crowed
And started In the dew
To see the boat race for our Jim
Was captain of the crew.
You see six-olive branches came
To bless our honest love
Five slumber in thechurchyurd green
With little stones above;
Hut one was left in mother's arms
Stern death was kind to lilm .
The youngest of our tiny flock
The sturdy baby Jim.
He took it in his curly head
To want u college course;
I parted witli a pasture lot
And sold the sorrel horse:
We sent lilm every dollar saved
And made a seedy pair
'In garments that had long outlived
Their days of useful wear.
We did not want to shame our boy
And so kept out of sight
Dchlnd a row of waving (lags
Anil fluttering 'kerchiefs white.
Hut when theslender sculls swept by
The rival crews abreast
We both forgot our shabby clothes
Ami shouted with the rest.
The surging throng closed up in
front
We could not see our son;
Hut soon a mighty cheer went up
And told us Jim had won.
The crowd took up the college yell
And sent It to the skies
Anil college colors every where
Shook out their brilliant dyes-
He stepped ashore looked up and saw
Ills mother's wrinkled face.
And hurried to her through the ranks
Of broadcloth silk mid lace.
He never gave a single glance
Toward the pretty girls.
But kissed heron the withered lips
And kissed her silver curls.
Ills sunburnt face was glorified
With proud and happy smiles;
lie did not mind because her hat
Was years behind the styles;
But led her out before hisfrlends
A figure quaint and prim.
In stiff old-fashioned lilac silk
".My sweetheart boys" said Jim.
Mr. J. A. Scott and son J. A.
Jr. were in town last week en-
route to Hereford.
