When asked how it' culla about he said " Why was short ?" Well, the money slipped out of my hands little by little, and before I realized it was behind." This would be the story of hundreds who hiive gone down to ruin through ap- propriating the property of others. They had money which did not belong to them ; they had neither earned it nor borrowed it ; they were trusted to handle it, and they stole it !

They did did not call it stealing, though it was ; they " took it, thinking to return it." This was the devil's device -his plan to get them to take it. If he had said " Steal " at firat, the answer would have been, " Is thy servant a dog that he should do this !" So he did not say " Steal " he said " Borrow, help yourself, use the money, lend it to your friends, you can eas- ily pay it back ; you have money in your pocket, spend it freely, buy what you see, it will all come right by and by." But it all comes wrong by and by, and things grow worse and worse, and at last ruin overtakes the offender. Perth Items.

A GORILLA AT LARGE. -Barnum &Bailey's 1.5,000 gorilla created considerable excite- ment at Binghampton, New York, on Mon- day last. ,While the workmen were at din- ner the brute forced the door of his cage from the hinges, and jumping out he made for the dressing rooms, which were occupied by two ladies. The frightened women ran screaming from the tent, and the big mon- key escaped into the open air. The people immediately scattered in every direction. The growling beast finally took hie stand near a barn, where several of the 01112•1111 men tried to cepture him, but were badly injured, His Portuguese keeper finally ar- rived, and after hugging and kissing him with joy, the gorilla readily accompanied him to his cage. He would not enter, how- ever, until au elephant, of which he stands in mortal fear, was brought in.
