And saw a poor woman. the picture OF gloom;
She glard at the mud on her doorstep twas raningl
And this was her wall, as she welded her broom:
'Ohi lie is a toll, and love is trouble,
And beauty will fade, and riches will nee,
And pleasures they dwinde, and prices they double
And nothing is what could wish It 10 Do.
"Ther's too much of worriment goes to bonnet
There's too much of ironing goes to shirt;
There's nothing that pays for the time you waste 1t
There's nothing that lasts as but trouble and dirt

Forever at war, and forever alert.

The FISH THAT Took IN BALLAsT.-A

good story Of Nova Scotia tishwife, Peg

to the Catholic bishop, and got an extra
price for it. Soon after the cook proceed

horror and amusement she found IFS whole

other salmon for sale, and tho bishop
hurled the anathema of the church at her.
"Arrah! shure, yer lordship ought to

THE Prosecutions AGAINST CHRISTIANS
AND IMAGE WoRsHIpERs IN JAPAN.-The
late prosecutions against native Christians
in Japan seems not to have been directed
against that faith alone, but against Buddh.
ism also, or in other words, against image
worship in general. The Japanese are
worshipers Oh nature. no images are to be
found in temples of what may be called an
established religion. Buddhists are as
much dissenters from the State religion as
are the Christians. Buddhists and Chris.
tians alike have images in their temples Of
worship, and the iconoclastic zeal Of the
orthodox faith, as by law established, can
not break the mummeries Of image wor-
ship, whether Of Indian or European ORR
gin. A remarkable evidence of their de-
termination to utterly abolish idols is
shown by icanclastic edic:, which dooms
TO destruction even the great idol of the
empire, a colossal image of Buddha in
bronze, of worldwide fame, called Biboots.
The gigantic statue is for sale, and it is too
large to remove it without breaking it up,
it is likely soon to be turned to some use
full purpose, after having for six centuries
contributed to promote a debasing super
stition.- Yokohama Herald, Nay %.

EpIroRs TRIBUNE II see the newspa-

that Hon. Allen Warden, of Darlington,

years, and have ever found him faithful
to every trust reposed in him. His &C.

ICY This is evidently to be the hottest
summer that we have had for many years.
The May that has just passed was hotter
than the same month has been during the
last ten years, and we are now in the midst
of q heat as intense as that from which we
usually suffer in the latter part of July.
If the heat continues TO increase as it has
done for the last two months, humanity
may well perspire at the thought of the

First, because of its elementary princi

in the Discipline
J. We acknowledge Christ as the head
Of the Church and the word Of God, the
only rule of faith and practice.
3. Every man has an unalienablc right
to private judgement in matters Of relig

opinion in any way which does not violate
the laws of God, nor infringe on the rights
Of his fellow men. For we acknowledge
no distinction in men, either in ranl; Of

8. We acknowledge the right Of .
Christian people to make and adopt sucl
rules and regulations relative to church
policy as they may think proper, beini
responsible alone to the Great Head of tn
Church for the exercise of that right.

our ministers and members to maintain
Goodness, to oppose all moral evil, and +
