Ileforo you sit down to write a

valuable, that it would he helpful and

well to write It out in prose, as pointed
ly and tersely as passible. If It bears
the test well, you come to tho second
stage.
Now aee if you would not better
work at It, get it Into the best (sisslble
shape nnd leave It lu prose. So few
persons can write really good jioetry,
that there Is great danger that you may
lose your opportunity of writing a
very gyod, sensible, well-constructed
pleivof prose,and may construct a very
unsatisfactory and misshapen muss
that will lie laughed at Instead of king

Us had form rather than to the thought
you intend to convey, it, Indeed, you
do not allow the thought to leak out
and your bend to be lost through your
feet.
If, now, you eiui not longer restrain
yourself, and you must put your
thought into poetry or die, do tho very
best you can' und take your time. Do
not "dash it oil'." Write and rewrite.

The history of the public preea b the

it rrmeate society; It sways the mul

that all tde combined forces of church

utterly unable to counteract or sup

by Intelligent men to-day upon the
power and possibilities of the public?

"thuuk God that we have neither free

what said Jodn .Milton? "Give me,"
mid lie, "give me liU-rty to know, to

The noble voice of the Puritan poet;

A preacher once said: "I will divide
my subject luto three propositions.
Firstly, the world Is wrong side up;
secondly, the world must be set right
side up; thirdly, we's the people to do
It," His confidence In his people was
unbounded, but no greater than ours
should lie lu the teacher's work. The
world Is wrong side up. It must be
righted. In the schoolroom is the place
to work the lever of the mighty force
that will do it. Archimedes said, "Give
me where I may stand and I will move
tde world." Tde modern Archimedea
Is the teacher. He has the place on
which to stand. The lever Is in his
hand. It is underneath the world. He
Is using It. The world is moving up
up slowly but surely into its right
place. It will lo right side up oue of
these days, and it will be the teachers
who will do the work.

lecture lu Minneapolis recently, says an
exchange. A Fond du Lao preacher,
worn out w it h t ry ing to get a decent liv

"ltrothers and sisters, I come to say
good-bye. I don't think God loves this
church very much, because noue of you
ever die. I don't tbluk you love each
other, liecause none of you ever get mar
ried. I don't tbluk that you love me,
because you never pay my salary, and
your donations are mouldy fruits and
wormy apples, and by their fruits ye
shall know them. Brothers, I nm going
away from you toa better place. I have
beeu called to be chaplain of the
Stillwater penitentiary. Where I go'
ye can not come, but 1 go to prepare a

Professor (a little distracted): "I 'm

not, married," ''Ah, yes; then, of course
your wife 's still single?"
