Tbe editor wrote seriously, for be reasoned that given bens there wlU be eggs, and tbe Immemorial breakfast of egg*, rolls and ccflee will continue to be secure.” It Is not likely that tbe meat or egg trusi magnates will worry over tbe I nick yard or roof garden henneries of tbe great cltlee If amateurs take up with this “fool s advice" in tbe hope of scaling down tbe cost of living. It la only when tbe bens are not working. no matter bow well they are fed and looked after, that tbe price of eggs soars. At other times they sre cheaper to buy than the breakfast food It would take to produce them In the city plant. Bnt grain S*d and gravel t^ scratch In are not the only needs of tbs laying hen.

AN OLD TINE GAMBLING EPISODE. lOrktlaan When I was ■ little chap living to Cincinnati I was delicate. We had relatives In New Orleans, and time I was aent down there tor my boa lib The only route was Ohio and Mlaalaalp.d rivers, made the trip la one of the big •teera*r> of that day. Tbs main feature that 1 remember Was seeing ting In the cabin playing cards, with beautifully colored chips Why they ow'd the chips I a .h-ntaud In this call tbelr leaving tbe tables occalooally to go to a little box about the of a •■Itiuch aud Jody" show, placed forward In tbe cabin, where they drank drinks of (to me) twautlfnl col-

ors.

The Mississippi was bl.ug resort from Cairo to New Orleans. There were ftatboata fitted up for tbe purpose that Boated slowly down the river, tying op at any point where there were people to be fleeced, and wherever there were planters there were victims. One afternoon oni these flatboata descending with tbe rent was seen from tbe shore not far la-low Memphis to be turning la shore. The only power aboard was the arm* of men and a couple of

neeps or oars

n either side. Tba

Bad Men In the Steerage. It la generally believed that the enormous Immigration for the past few mouths has been doe to the new law raising the tax. No doubt |>eople who intended to come her* took advantage of tbe grace allowed to save a couple of dollars. But tbe result of the Increase of tax la yet to be shown. It la hoped that It may shut oat same undesirable grades of people—that la, tbs nonearning members of very poar families. There la Is ever}’ Immigrant throng a good percentage of thrifty people who have means to help themselves with. Bur U does not follow that only the honest well to do sill be able to meet the Increase In tbe bead

tax.

Not only will the criminal element be ready to pot up extra money for tbe privilege of lauding, bat they may be very glad to do so. as they ere often refugees from the law or trying cape the vengeance of victim# they have outraged In the old country. . few dollars are nothing to a runaway they are to keep him out of the tolls, e pedally when be expects to find easy money here for a man with an easy conscience. Increase of tax will help some, bnt It will not do tbe sifting of the bod from tbe good. Authorities receiving Immigrants and communities which welcome them must be as alert as ever to round up the had men from tbe Weerage. ^ Apt Pupils In Crime. Commissioner Bingham of tbe New Tort police Intimates that be believes that tbe enormous Influx of Immigrants la responsible for the crave of crimes against belplesa women and girls which has opened a new page In our police annals. Numerous offenses of the kind have been traced to young men or grownup youths born In Europe Where so many grave Crimea are fastened upon fur tips born persons It Is natural that the people In tbelr should moke the Immigrant tbe scapegoat In la clear But It Is reasonable to suppose that the Immigrant class should furnish more than Its normal average of vtcii persons. Even with the beat of moral Intent Id themselves tbe parents cannot control tbelr boy# in tbla country at they could at home Boys to take advantage of the larger liberty of America. Unfortunately their first school la tbe street, and tbe rowdies . they meet there find Ibein apt pupils. Tbe picture given them of life and op port unity to this country Is a glowing one.' and the upshot of It la that they Imagine they can hare anything they want If they simply take It. fruit U always attractive to and tka newly landed Immigrant would * If be an wao wsylay bU path

benk.

That night Julian Marmu. a young planter, stepped aboard tbe boat and. with one or two of hla friends who were already there, opened the gams Maran had sold hla plantation and negroes and waa going to Baton Rouge to i sweetheart and take up hla residence there. The money be had received was In bank except a hundred dolUre. with which be proposed to -himself on the flatboO. . Hf added considerably to hla hundred dollars during the evening and, being a chivalrous fellow, considered hlmaelf bound to go back tbe next day and give, tbe bank a chance for “revenge.” In a few days the fortune he had in hunk was svery cent transferred to tbe safe In the flatboet That waa a curious age. If there are chivalrous professional gamblers now. we bear nothing of them. There were chivalrous gamblers then, and they made their Influence felt. Perhaps It waa because gambling had not then been left so far behind other means of gambling propensity baa developed Into more legitimate forma. Be this as It may, as Maran was parting with tbe remnant of bis fortune. Gustavos Bter Ung. a professional gambler, who had ooce been a respectable planter, boarded tbe BalboaL He bad left “the profusion” and with hi* winning* bad bought Mann's plantation. When Maran bad parted with hla last dollar. Sterling walked up on to the river bank with him. “Permit me to say. auh.” he said to Maran. "that 1 have aeen many fool* In my life, and yo* ari one of the big gost. Even when a gambler plays fal' the advantage la with him. The men on tbla boat are of tbe lowest kind of swindlers.” Maran. maddened, was about to i tort angrily, when Sterling pnlled roll of bills from hi* pocket and ce tinned: “To' go down tha' tonight with this and start In again. Don't play tw win. Play only to be In tbe game, be tha'. and take a band myself. Have a gun In yo' pocket, auh.* Marnu tried to express hi* gratitude, but Sterling turned away and seek a few of tbe former'* friend*. That evening Maran.

The Rrlnclpale Paul Laid Down for Our Outdance.—Va. 1J-U The method of settlement le that employed all through tbe Bible, of laylmg down eral principle*, and not definite rulee and commands. For the principle* abide eternally, but the application of them varies continually. W# have an trouble whatever about some of tha questions which almost rent the a# clekt church asunder. They were settled long ago. But we must apply the same principles to our iem* The application of great divine priarlplet to our dally Uvea In varying circumstances la a large part of the discipline by which we grow In grace and develop a strong and holy charac-

ter.

First. The Law of Liberty.—V. 11; 1 Cor. 10:t>; OaL 1:4. V. 11. "So then.” As a eondualot from wbat Paul had been saying. "Every one uZ <u shall give account of himself to God.” Each la reaponalble to God and most set aa In Ms sight. •d It ovsr hi* brother in the Christian church. Each one must define hla duty so tar as conjures hlmUberty does not prevent any from holding decided opinion*, and speaking of them, and arguing for them. Liberty la not Indifference. Permitting liberty doe* not endorse all that is permitted. Second—V*. 11, 11, It. “The fullest freedom moat be balanced by the fullest sense of responsibility to God.”— Expositor’* Greek Testament. Tor we shall all stand before the lodgment seat of Christ” (v. 10). V. n “Hast thou faith T” Do you really believe that what you are doing Is right and approved by Ood? “Have It to thyself before Ood.” Rejoice in this liberty of your* la the presence of tha Father. "We still keep this Joy and strength of liberty even when for love's sake w# forego the particular acta from which. If we considered only ourselves and Ood. wa should not be debarred.”—Lyman Abbott. "Happy la be that condemn#th not hlmaelf.” who la *o convinced that hla course Is right that hla conscience never condemns him. even when bs “alts alone with hla conscience” amid the manifestations of God's power. V. Jl. “He that doubteth.” la unsettled In hla conscience as to what la right for hlmaelf. Abbott translates. -He that dlsputeth with hlmaelf.” “I« damned.” la condemned, the usoal meaning of the Greek word. He has no right to do an act which be feels may Injure other*. “Whatsoever la not of faith la tin.” “All that a man cannot do remembering that ha la ChrUfa—all that be cannot do with the Judgment seat (v. 10) and the cross (v. It) and pi) their restraints and Inspiration* present to hla mind —Is sis.” Third. Toward such persona we sre forbidden to have either a censorious or a contemptuous estimate of tbelr character. V. 11. "Let fore Judge one another,” thoee who honestly do not sae aa wa do. We moat allow others the lame liberty ve ask for ouraeb Condemning ns unchristian others who honestly differ from u* may be quite as greet a sin a* that of the

Suddenly Sterling clapped hand down on the money and whipped out a gun with the other. AC the name moment Mama and hla two friend* drew tbelr weapon* and covered the three profeeekmals. Tbe coup was effected so quickly that not one of the latter waa able to draw. “Put yo - arm* on the table." ordered Sterling, raking off the money Into hi* bat Then, setting the hat on a chair, be went to tbe owner of tbe boat and began to nearch him. "ll-rar be remarked, drawing aev eral aces held by a clasp attached to a rubber coni In hi* jlerf* "A cheep device, but good eoAfti to fool asses with." Then, going to tbs next man. be took a pack of cards from his pock ei held them op to the light and

continued;

“Marks big enough to nee In tha dark. All the court cards are plain on tbe back as on tbe face.” After going through tha three men ad finding evidence of fraud an all. be politely asked the owner for the key of tbe safe The man. having a pistol muzzle within a few Inc he* of bis ear. complied. Sterling opened the safe and coanted oat an amount equal to Marat's losses and handed It to him. Then bs paid what losses the other* bad made from the mooay In the bat He was hlmaelf a winner, and this amount bs teak from bis pock et and loaned It on tbe table. When tbe party left tbe best they cut tbe cable, and it floated 64%n with tbe current its profits and leasaa at Its last landing place bad been nff. Maran left tbe next day for Baton Rouge and was married soon after hk arrival. Had It not been for Starting'*
