God should be most where man IL loasti
So. where is neither church nor priest,
Aud mover rag Of form or creed
TO clothc the nakodncHs of need
Whore fariner-folk in silence meet,
iurn my bcil-unsummoncd feet
lay the critics glass aside,
tread upon my lottorcd pride,
And, lowest seated, testify
TO the oneness of humanity;
Confess the universal want,
And share whatever Heaven may grant.
lie iindoth not who seeks his own,
The soul is lost that's saved alone.
Not on one favored forehead fell
of old tho fire-tongucd miracle,
Dnt famed DER all the thronging host
The baptism Of the Holy Ghost;
Heart answers heart; in one desire
The blending lines Of prayer aspire:
"whcrc, in My name meet two or three"
Our Lord hath said, "thcre l will bel!
SO sometimes comes to soul and sense
The feeling which is evidence
That very near about us lies
The realm of spiritual mysteries.
The sphere of the aupornal powers
Impmeos ON this world Of ours.
Then duty leaves to love its task,
The beegar Self forgcts to ask;
with smile Of trust and folded hands,
The passive soul in waiting stands
To feel, as flowers the sun and dow,
The ono true Life its own renew.
So. to the calmly gathered thought
The inncrmost Of truth is taught,
The mystery dimly understood,
That love Of God is love Of good,
And, chiefly, Its diyincst trace
In Him Of Nazaroths holy face;
That to be saved Is only this
salvation from our sclnshnese,
From more than elemental fire,
The souls unsanctihcd desire,
From sin itself, and not the pain
That warns us Of its chalng chain;
That worship's deeper meaning lies
In mercy, and not sacrifice,
Not proud humilitics Of sense
And posturing Of pcnitencc,
But loves enforced obedience;
That Book and Church and Day are given,
For man, not God,-for earth, not heaveh'
The blessed means to hottest ends,
Not masters, but benignant friends;
That the dear Christ dwclls not afar,
The king of some rcmoter star,
Listening, at times, with flattered car
To homage wrung from selfish fear,
But here, amidst the poor and blind,
The bound and suffering of our kind,
In works we do, in prayers we pray,
Life of our life, lie lives to-day.

CUTTING GLASS AND STONE BY SAND BLAST
AT meeting of the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, held on the 10th of March, an in
teresting paper was presented by James Ham
blet, upon Tighlman' process for etching upon
glass by II blast of sand. For this purpose the
glass or stone is simply covered with paper, cut
or perforated in the desired pattern, and then
exposed to the sand blast, which cuts the ma
terial wherever the surface is entirely exposed in
very delicate aud well-defned manner, the
elasticity of the paper apparently preventing
the action of the sand on the covered parts. We
have not room for the details of the process by
which the sand is directed against the glass +;
but there seems no doubt that the method prom
ises an important revolution in decorative and
constructive art. In eight seconds n pane Of
common window glass can be ground or rough
eued while ordinary sunk letters in marble an
inch and half long, can b0 cut in less than
minute.
Attention was called by DR.. Kneeland to the
agency of a similar principal in nature and ref
erence made to the observations of Mr.. Blake
upon the action of the drifting sand on the gran
lite at San Bernardno Pass, in California. Ac-
cording to Professor Wyman, glass windows on
Cape Cod sometimes have holes worn in them
by the drifting sands blown by the winds. Sim
liar agencies exist in Australia on large scale,
and specimens of hard rock cut into fantastic
shapes are not unfrtquently found in mineral

THE BEST cow IN PERIL.

Old Farmer h. is a stiugy man,
lie keeps all he gets and gets all he can;
BY all his friends he is said to be
As tight as the bark on young birch tree;
lie goes to church, aud he rents pew,
But the dimes that he gives to the Lord are few,
If he gets to Heaven with the good aud great,
He will be let in through the smallest gate.
Now, Farmer b, besides draes the plows,
Keeps number of very fine calves aud cows;
He makes no butter, but sends 10y express,
The milk to the city's thirstiness
:" What do the city folks know about mikl
They are better judges of cloth and silk
Not man who buys, I'll vow can tell
If water it not or water it we'll;
Ii they do not know then where's the siu
1t put the sparkling water I'M"
Thus talked to himself, old Farmer b
How mean he is young and old can see
One night it was dark, OH fearfuly dark;
The watchdog never came out to bark
Old Farmer h. in his bed did snore.
When rar. rap, rap, nearly shattered his door;
And voice cried ont with hasty breath.
iVut btsl cow, ntlEhbuf, Is CHOKING TO death u
Clipping or the end of rousing snore
Farmer u, bounded out on the bed room floor;
And the midnight voice was heard no moro;
lie pulled ON his pants, he know not how,
For his thoughts were on the choking cowj
He flew to the yard like II frightened deer,
For his stngy soul was hlled with fear
Looking around 10y his lanterns light,
lie found thet the cows were there, aH rigM
will give dime" cried farmer H..
"To know who played this trick on me-
May the hand be stifi and the knuckle sore,
That knocked to night on my farmhouse door"
with scow ON his face and a shaking head
Farmer D. again sought his nice warm bed;
No good thoughts came-they were all o'erpowere,
The little good nature he had was soured.
When he wont to water his milk next day,
The midnight voice seemed again To say,
As lac pumped away with painting breath,
" Your best COW, neighbor, is choking to DEATH"
The meaning of this he soon found out,
For stone cuS drtrcn IN tie oid pumps spoutl
Old Farmer D., when he drives to town,
Now meets his neghbors with savage irown;
They smile and ask, as they kindly bow,
How getteth along the best COW now -

ELECTION BRIBERY.

1t is becoming very difficult for poor man,
and very Improbable for an honest man, to run
for office while the passage to office through
such corruption must tend to blunt the moral
sense, and breed contempt for the popular
will and the popular conscience, in the minds of
the best of men. The knowledge that it is not
the display of ability and of regard for the pub
lie interest, so much as a well-flled purse, or
the backing of those who can afford to spend
money, that secures recognition from the peo-
pie, destroys the most powerful incentive to a
strictly upright course on the part of our public
servants. 1t is true political corruption, of all
kinds, has gone on since George of Cappadocia
laid the foundation of his fortune and cuuoniza-
tion by supplying the army of Constantine with
poor bacon at high prices and for long ages be-
fore and it is true that in the country which,
III all things, is nearest to us, election brb-
cry has assumed dimensions which it can proba-
bly, never reach here. In England, $50 has been
frequently paid for single vote, in II para-
mentary election and the expenses of candi-
dates have sometimes reached flO0, 900. The
greatest and best of Engands statesmen have
tnOuShN IL uO Slu W purchase votes IN contested
eletion. When the good Wiberiorce, the anti
slavery apostle and the suppressor of the hid
eous traffic in human flesh and blood, first went
to Parliament from Hull, his election cost him
nearly $4,000, he having purchased votes at the
rate of from f2 to 60 apiece, evading the law by
deterring payment until after election. When,
in 1907, the West India nabobs made a fight
against him in Yorkshire the expenses of the
three candidates were estimated ut G50O, 600
Il sum which, measured by our standards, is
probably equal to So, 800, 900. But we should
aim, not to do no worse than other peoples have
done, but to do great deal better Aud though
with all its election corruption, the Government
of England has been passaby good, and at least
equal in purity and craftsmanship to our own,
it does not follow that the evil will work no
greater harm here. For it must be remembered
that the Government of England is-and has
been, to even greater eXtent-the government of
class, not of the people, and the distinctions
of hereditary rank and caste which prevail there
exercise strong conservative influence against,
at least the more vulgar forms of legislative and
administrative coTuptons for aristocracy, like
slavery, breeds in the superior ranks its virtues,
well as its vices From Bribery in EiecHons,' -

FASHIONABLE WOMEN Fashion kills more wo-
men than toll or sorrow. Obedience to fashion
is greater ransgresson of the laws Of women's
nature, and greater injnry 10 her physical and
mental constitution, than the hardships of pow
erty and neglect. The slave woman at her task
will live and grow old, and see two three
generations of her mstresses pass away. The
washerwoman, who has scarce ray of hope to
cheer her in her tolls, will live to see her fash
ionable sisters all extinct. The kitchen maid is
hearty and strong, when her lady has to be
nursed like a sick baby. 1t is a sad truth, that
fashioned -pampered women are almost worth
less for all good ends of lite they have but little
force of character, and still less power of moral
will and quite as little moral energy They live
for no purpose in life-accompsh no great end
They are dolls in the hands of milliners and ser
wants, to be dressed and fed in order If they
bear children, servants and nurses do all the
nursing rearing and training. And when reared
what are they what do they ever amonnt to
but weak scions of the old stock? who ever
heard of a fashionable woman child exhibiting
any virtue, any power of mind for which it be-
came eminent. Read the biographies of our
great and good men and women. No one of
them had a fashionable mother. They nearly
all sprang from women who had as little to do
With fashion as with the changing clouds.
