Why THE Poor DO NOT GO TO CHuRcH.-
Very serious complaints are lodged against
the poor because Of their seeming unwilling
ness to attend church and yet this is easily
accounted for. We wish to saw in kindness
what Is true, that the poor man despises the
spirit Of invidiousness and caste that faces
him in our fine churches. No longer ago
than last summer, the president elect Of the
United states, while spending Sabbath in
Chicago, walked out in the morning, unat
tended, to find place Of religious worship.
lie CHANGED to drop in among tbr followers OF
John Wesley, and as he was plainly clad,
the usher in attendance took pains to seat the
great captain among the plebciaus near the
door Great was the grief and modification
Of the usher on learning that be bad thus
rudely received an ''angei unawares." 4
C ,uncil was at once called, but it was deem
ed best not to attempt rectifying the mistake
This simple fact we received from the pastor,
and although ofno great moment, it is never
the less significant as indicating the course
commonly pursued, Of making an attempt to
draw dividing lines between high and low in
the churches. And herein lies the trouble in
question.-Amcrican Builder.

CrRE OF CANCER-A Milwaukee paper states
that the following course Of treatment was tried
with perfect success on a citizen Of that town
for the cure Of "a cancer with which he was
troubled \ piece Of sticking plaster was put over
the cancer, with a circular piece cut out Of the
centre a little larger than the cancer, 50 that the
cancer and a small circular rim OF healthy skin
next to it were exposed. Then plaster made of
chloride Of zinc, blood root, and wheat -four.
was spread on piece Of muslin the size Of this
circular opening and applied to the cancer for
24 hours. On removing it the cancer viii be
found burnt into and appear Of the color and
hardness Of an old shoe sole, and the circular
rim outside Of it viii appear parboiled, as if
scalied by hot water. The wound is now dressed,
and the outside rim soon separates, and the
cancer comes out in a hard lump. and the place
heals up. The plaster kills the cancer, so that
it sloughs out Ike dead flesh, and never grows
again. The remedy was discovered by Dr. Fell
Of London, and has been used by him for six or
eight years, with unfailing success and not
case has been known Of the temperance Of the
cancer when this remedy has been applied.

French OPINION on THE DIpLoNauc APP
FoISrNENrs AT NAsHrGToN.-In reference 10
the appointments TO foreign missions made by
General Grant, the Paris T'rij1ns Observes that
they have unparalleled merit Of ilcluiing men
entirely unknown to the political wo-ll An ex-
cepti0n must be made, however, in favor. of Mr.
Sanford, at Brussels, who has had the capital
idea Of naturalizing American cookery In Eu-
rope by giving several dinners. consisting en-
irely Of American products, such as fish, beef,
mutton, poultry, game. vegetables. fruits, etc.
These dinners have, in the absence Of anything
better. given q higher idea Of merican wealth
and resources than anything done either by
Francis Adams, Reverjy johnson, Motley, or
Bancroft. They were substantial and pleasant,
which cannot be said Of the speeches and writ
ings Of the other American diplomats, impreg-
mated with partisan spirit, wild theories and
false statements. The Tribune concludes by
stating that Mr. Sanforl's appointment to spain
is the wisest Of all those made by Gen. Grant,
especially at tbs moment when Spaniards are
hungry and not particularly fastidious in the
choice Of their dishes

RISK OF GREAT EATEss.-Great eaters never
live long. yorarious appetite, so far as being
a sign of good health, IS certain indication Of
disease Some dyspeptics are always hungry,
and feel rest when eating; but as soon as they
have finished eating they endure torments
so distressing in their nature as TO make
the unhappy victim wish for death. The
appetite Of health is that which Is inclined to
eat moderately when eating-time comes, and
which, when satisfied, leaves no unpleasant re-
minders Multitudes measure their health by
the quantity they eat; and, out Of ten persons,
nine are gratfed with an increase of weight,
when in reality it indicates an increase in
disease, showing that the absorbents Of the
system aie to weak to discharge their duty, and
the tendency too atness, to obesity, increase until
existence becomes burden, and sudden death
closes the painful history.-HaH's Journal
