Diogenes Moral. and a Modern Diogenes was born 412 B. C. and hab been dead a gopd many years.' Hef was noted for his trifling, shiftless habits, but the people of Greece had uol taken n tumble to him yet. «»d they called him a philosopher. Now­ a d a y s they are called tramps.. But it was different iu those days. If a man acted oddly and neglected the common decencies of life, he was not taken out behind the barn and kicked into the middle of uext -week, Mhe should have been, but he was called a philosopher. There are a good many people yet Who have the same qualifications, but wecall them hoboes, Diogenes wouldn’t work, so lie con­ cluded to go into the philosophy busi­ ness, and found i f * veryensy way to make a living, Hi* father had made up his mind to trVao. experiment on Diogenes, anee be. never corrected him; but ben grown up, folks came to*.tbe lOttie, little Diogenfea would stick in gabWhen he had no business, aud >uldshut hi* lather clear out ql the hvefttttioD. He did this, t.osuch as xteht that many Of the neighbors ere glad, indeed, when he got the jewels, ip the hope that ha wouldn’t get over it, but he came out smiling. Diogeow was moreTtjPse of mis­ appliedConfidence on tlie. part pi bii folks than anything, else. It he had been lickedwitbia an. Inch of His life* srery chance the old man.had,he tight not have been a philosopher, it ha Would have been a good deal laocount a* a bread and butter ting citizen! That was what got matter with Greece. They all ated to go into the philoeopby buai- , and none wanted to work. Too much philosophy will ruin any ition, I f our country ever goes in- bsbkruptcy aud fiuds it necessary ► make an asiignmeat, it will not be iaoooantof the politicians nor the Knee nor the boodle aldermen, be the fault of too many ophsrs. r o Diogenes waa top thirties* and jutsrly no account to have a placebo |lr*, aobe mads a virtue of necessity itook up his abode in a tub. He ever took a bath except in the firing, juat as the ice went out and geese flew north. When his ms needed patching he had to go bed. I f be was ever married we never irdo fit, and we always feel like ngrstulsting the womanwhodidii’t arry him. The world owes its sym* ithyto any woman who marries a kilosophor. It is related that one day Diogenes rent forth with a lantern in quest of honest mao. Bat we think that ia 1 m . That would have been” too iach like work.

An Albany N, Y. dairyman called at a drug store there for a doctor to come and see bis child, then very 'sick with croup.

He also bought a bottle of , Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, which he hoped would give some re­ lief uutil tbe*doctor should arrive. In a few hours he .returned, ’saying the doctor need not come, as the child was much better. The druggist, Mr. Otto Bcholz, says the family has since recommended1Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy to their neighbors and friends Until he has a constant demand for it from that part of the country.

AlLaUOUUfe.>4» A villV J f « N VVMBRIIIIHMI H i y ITM ^ I JL|| We have, received the following interesting personal experiences from Mr. J . M. McQuilkjn, a graduate of the college here, now a student o f theology in the R. P. seminary at Philadelphia. He writes that Mr. Alvin Orr will relate bis experiences for next week’s issue. Five thousand church workers cele­ brated Washington’s birthday in taking the religious census of this city. It had been decided .that under the auspices of the S. 8. 'Association the city should be canvassed on that day tojdetermine the relation of her peo­ ple to her churches. . Each visitor was provided with blank cards to be fiHed out, showing the family name and address, language and color, how many in the. family, and of these how many in the church or 8* S., and how many under sixteen. Desirous of helping a good cause volunteered my services forabout six hours. I visited two blocks, in all about one hundred and fifty houses, containing one hundred and seventy-five families. One of these districts was not among the aristoc­ racy, being composed mostly c f .col­ ored people of the poorer class and Catholics, with the exception of half Udozen families. One of these ex­ ceptions was the only M, E. family in my districts. They profraMd to bej members of one of the largest M. E. churches in the city. A young man was furnishing the desired informa­ tion. “Three children of us.” 44A11 under sixteen?” « V m I n J>CD* -fi “How old are you?” ’‘Seventeen, eighteen in March.” “All communicant members of church?” “Yes,” hamo the reply in stonto. rian tones from a big German, “We are ail communicant members, but 1 commune more down here at Mike O’Donovan’s (saloon) than at church.” Some people were unwilling to come to the door. A t one place we met no response. 10 thought we would fl66 what was inside, Pushing the door, it opened and in we walked on our own invitation. Presently a wooly head came in right ai m door that opened from a stairway into the room. A t once we began our cross questioning for fear she would imitate Bullet's actions, and retreat injo safety. Immediately she retorted, “ What you want? Pee notgwine to anrah yo questions.” Unintentionally/?) we had left the door partly ajar. “Come in and shat that doah, deyse no disease in dis yere house.” (Of count) there wasn’t then, for the germs had escaped through the opendoor.) ,»After hardcoaxing, her card wasfilledwith the exceptions of! her pastor’s name. Ibis she abso­ lutely refused to disclose. 8he raid slie bad a kroman rooming with her. “White or colored?” “Colored ob cose, we’s not mixed up heab, white and colored,” There are times when one needs grace and patience in abundance and this was one. A little Catholic girl in reply to the question? “How many in fomily tin dcr sixteen?” replied “ ten” and then turned to a little friend and raid •rubber.” I suppose she had otretched both her veracity and imagination, One very polite colored woman from Virginia, when asked how many In tbe fomily replied; “How many in de family?

Washington, Kerakkh * * « - *>»>< Wa in de hospital, and many la nil?* I t was amusing to know how some people looked upon the work. Some wanted to know if it was a city affair . and some asked if it was a good busi-, ness. When one young colored girl was told that it was the religious census, she said: “Oh, yes, you want to know how many has grace and how many hasn’t.” One old lady said'she had waited a t home all day for the * ‘census takers.” She thought they were to be a t all the bouses by nine o'clock. Quito a number of people bad for- gotten their pastor’s name. They were probably very regular attendants (?) . elsewhere. When the youngmaidens* just blossoming into ladies, came to the door, they were easily induced to smile by asking' bow many in the family iveresixteen or over. It is a remarkable fact, that j. every family visited, with a very.few ex­ ceptions, wanted to claim some church . relationship. I f they were not mem­ bers,: their husband or wife was, or their'father or mother had been. The work done, promises to be of great service to the various city, .pas­ tors and church workers.
