Fashionable Religion.

Fanny Fern makes the following sharp
thrust at fashionable religion Our Cath
Ole brethren have at least one good exam
pie; their churches are not silent as the
tomb on week days. Their worshippers
do not do all their religion on Sunday. It
may be only for few moments they step
In through that open church door, on a
week day, to kneel and lay down burdens
too heavy else to be borne, l like the GUS
tom. l should rather say the remainder.
and the opportunity thus afforded them
and | heartily wish that our protestant
churches could thus be opened. If rich
Christians object to the promiscuous use
OF their velvet cushions and gilded prayer
books, at least let the aisles and the affairs
be free to those who need God on the week
day-for the poor, the tried, the tempted
for those who shrink, in their shabby habil-
iments, from the Sunday exhibition of fine
tollettes, and superfine Christianity. Were
l a minister, and obliged to preach to pam
lers and diamonds and satins on Sunday. I

and their owners. Ny tongue would be
paralyzed at the sight of those kneelne
distortions of womanhood, bearing such
resemblance to organ grinders monkeys
am not sure that should not grow hys-
terical over it, and laugh and cry in the
same breath, instead Of preaching. l can
never tell what vent my disgust would take;
but | am sure it must have some sscape
valve. You may say that such worship

smilingly returned his friend. 81 returned
last month, and have been here ever since"
with sly glance at the bewildered Maud
"Well, but why didn't you let us know
of your whereabouts? saw your mother
last week, and she was in utter ignorance
Of her sons contiguity. So your cousin
was the only one in the secret, eh 81
No +! even my cousin was not in the
secret. Didn't you hear her introduce me
as Mr.. Thornton? had reason for re-
naming incognito, so gave my middle
name''
LATER:-Mr. Hayes and his fair betrothed
found themselves alone. She was embar-
raised and little indignant. Seeing this,
he said, calmly:
Maud, suppose owe you An apology
for this deception but, let me explain,
and then you can judge. You know that
our parents have long wished that We should
become man and wife and from our child
hood we have been led to consider our mar
rage as inevitable, and neither question d
the wisdom which dictated the match
ing that time have thought long and earn
estly upon the subject. My letters from
home we're filled with praises Of your beau
ty, worth, and pride. Well, Maud, have
seen enough misery, resulting from unhappy
marriages, and determined to study Miss
Darrell well, before fulfilling the contract
made for both Of US. The first night after
my return from Gotham, l saw you at a
concert, and the love had felt a. boy
revived as by magic. Several times, while
looking from my boarding house window,
only few doors away, l saw you enter
downtown cars, and actuated by what
most persons would term an insane freak,
determined to play the role of conductor
hoping in some way to attract your atten-
ton in that suise, and discover, if possible,
to what extent that obnoxious pride had
been cultivated. Wsll," with little smile
which brought flood Of crimson to Maud's
face, 81 found it wasn't uery deeply rooted,
