soKETHIEa MUcH NEEDED IN CLEVELAND.
We are pleased to be able to chronicle the
opening Of new Dining Hall in our city
on plan which will command the spPrOba-
ton and patronage of all. Mr.. ElwOOd has
entirely remodelcd and refttOd his restau-
rant, numbers 100 and 1O2 Bank street, ad
ding to it new and elegant Dining Hall,
furnished in the best Of style and with its
tables crowded with all the luxuriss of the
season, afforded at a marvellously cheap
rate. The great Recommendation Of this
new Hall is that no Hquoris to be sold on the
premises. It is in fact a place which any
lady can visit for lunch or for q supper, even
without an escort, without any imprOPriety,
and we venture to predict that it will become
a favorite, as place for Refreshments, with
ladies. We have long needed just such q
saloon and are grateful to announce that
Mr.. Elwood has had the enterprise to estsD-
Hsh it.

StlisteIlal1eous.
The Depth Of Space.

In 1887, Professor Bessel, Of Germany,
commenced n series of astronomical measures
for getting the exact distance Of the fixed
stars, thing that had never been done.-
The instrument which he used in connection
with powerful telescope, in his experiments,
was a heliometer (sun.measurer). After
three years. hard labor he was so fortunate
as to obtain q parallax, but 80 minute, that
hc.could hardly trust his reputation upon it.
But after repeated trials, and working out
the result, hc was fully satisfied that he could
give the true distance to 81 Cygni. But
who can comprend this immense dstanco?-
We can only convey an idea to the mind Of
this distance, by tho fact that light, which
travel $4,000, 900 OF miles minute, requires
not less than ten years to reach us Just
let any one try to take in the idea. One
hour would give 10000, 900 Of miles one
year, then-S760 hours-givcs 6,307 ,200,-
100000, and this multiplied by ten, gives
63,072, 900. 900, 900.
This, according to Besscl, is the distance
of the nearest fixed star to the sun. All as
tranomers confirm the correctness Of Prof.
Besscl's calculations. But this distance,
great as it is, is nothing to bo compared to
the distance Of tho Milky Way. Sir VIM.
Hcrschel says that tho stars or suns that COM
pose tho Milky Way are so very remote that
it requires light, going at the rate Of H.
100000 of miles in minute, l20, 900 years
to reach the earth. And no says there are
stars, or rather ncbul@, five hundred times
moro remote! Now mako your calculation:
10000 years reduced to minutes, and then
multiply that by 100000 and the prod.
uct by 500. What an overwhelming idea |!
The mind sinks under such thought; we
can't realize it it is too vast even for com.
prehension. David says, Psalm Gill. 10 ::

heavens, and his kingdom (or government)

The Kissing Deacon.

In ono Of our New England towns lived
Deacon Brown, staid, digni6ed sort Of q
christian, and model Of propriety. Dea.
con Brown had the misfortune to lose his
wife, and at the ago of forty found himself
with family Of four small children, with.
out mistress to his farmhouse. As he
could not Immediately take another wife and
avoid exciting scandal, and could not get
along without some ono to take charge of
tho kitchen and nursery, ho had recourse to
employing young woman as housc-maid.-
Nancy Sterns was laughing, romping beau
ty, who delighted in experimenting upon the
deacon by way Of testing the strength of hu-
man nature. For long while the deacon
was invulnsrable but at last, in moment
of unguardod weakness, he was led into
temptation, and into committing "slight
indiscretion" with his beautiful houso-maid.
When in his wontod coolness and presence of
mind, he was horrifed at the enormity Of
his sin. Irf vain he repcnted and grieved
over lost virtue. Finally, as last effort for
easing his conscience, at tho conclusion Of
tho services On tho following Sabbath morn
ing, he arose and requested the forbearanco
of the brethren and sisters few moments,
when ho electrified them by making the fol-.
lowing confession
"My christian friends, you all know that
I lost my dear wife somo months ago [sobs
and tcarsl, and that Nancy Storns has been
keeping house for me; and you know that I
have little child not year old. Well,
that little child would cry in tho night and
it would bo long time before L could quiet
It; and last Tuesday night-God forgive
me the child cried 50 hard that Nancy
arose and came into tho room, and leaned
over tho bed to hush the child-and, broth.
ers and sisters. her leaning over me mado me
forget Christ!'
Hero the worthy deacon broke down on.
tirely, and stood weeping, and wailing and
blowing his nose.
"What did you do?" stcrnly demanded
tho minister.
"I-I-ki-kisscd her." stammcrcd out
tho deacon. Between his sobs, "but have
bcen sorry about it, and prayed to bc forgiv.
cn-and l want you to forgive me and pray
for me. brothers and sisters"
As the deacon bowed himself upon his scat
like the mighty oak before the the tornado,
Deacon Goodfcllow arose, and astonishcd tho
audience still moro, by saying:
"Brothers and sisters, you have heard what
brother Brown has said, and how no wants
our forgiveness. For my part, think BROTH
er Brown is truly pcnitent, and l am willing
to forgive him with my whole heart. And,
brothers and sisters, ! will add still farther,
that, If had no wife, and pretty girl like
Nancy Stcrns should come to my room, and
lean over my bed, and lean over me, I'd kiss
her, and abide the consequences"
