and those that have visited Helena, IN this
Territory, the business men of Montana have
awakened to the Importance of having their
property insured. Messrs. Miller s. Addoms,
of Helena, who represent some of the most
substantial companies in America, are
making quite a business in this Territory,
and aside from the stability of their COM
panies-the Great Western, Of Chicago !;
North Missouri and st. JOSEPH, OF st. joe
they are very agreeable gentlemen to deal
with. LII addition to the above fire-insurance
companies, they represent the Life Associa-
ton of Am erica, And if it is important for
business man to have his property insured,
how much more important is it. particularly
for man of family, to have his life insured
The former is, or should be, a necessary ex-
pense; while the latter is a safe and paying
Investment. One of the ablest living financlers
has said that nothing Id the commercial
world approaches, even remotely, to the Sc
curity of a well established and prudently
managed life insurance office;'' and the his
tory of American companies abundantly
prove it. The great necessity for life IN
surance, especially to those having families
should force itself upon the minds of all in
telligent beings without any system Of reason
ing it should be as transparent as "a sun
beam. In the economy Of existence every
true man, however far removed from senti-
mentalism, should be impressed with sacred
obligation to provide for his family. The in
stability of all branches of business, renders
failure liable to all; life insurance is the only
safe guard against such failures, insuring in
the event of death competence to those
whom every good man holds rs dear as life

PROFESSOR TYNDALL.

Professor Tyndal, who has so thoroughly
aroused the Christian world on the subject OF
prayer, and so generally called down upon him
self the thunders Of the religious prese gets his
latest blow from q leader in the last -4dclnce
Speaking of his assaults on prayer, it says:
Professor Tynda1l does not to understand that
these assaults prayer Seem Like treason TO all re-
:j9a3sm or but even tie socaed
4" natural reigion" Of dcists; at least everything
orthy Of that nae For to deny PRAYER N the sense
to forbid the first step Of approach to God.
Thus it will he seen thnt this is not G.

prayer. It is tight pro a,s ct oeis fer affairs and
lifting her fearful eye to Heaven every husband that

ed and faintIg saint that 1Fores divine gTace every
tortured spirit conscious Of sin and seeking ct the
mercy seat for PARDON cries out In agony Against the
1ades To deny them the resource Of prayer to doom
them to despair!
It is barely possible the profound scientist md
erudite scholar is somewhat misunderstood By
many on this important theme. Science and re-
Igion, at heart, are friends. This is what the
Professor says concerning his revilers:
ask no space to reply to those railers who make
such free Of the terms insoleuce, outrage profau
dty and blasphemy They obviously lack the sobriey
OF mind necessary to gTe accuracy their statements
to render their charges worthy Of serious refuta
Aion.
Now listen to what Tennyson says on the
topic:
More things are wrought By prayer
9han this world dreams Of. Wherefore let thy voice
Rise like fountain Cor night end day.
For what are men better than sheep or goats
Tint Upursl blind life within the brain.
Il, knowing God, they lift not bands Of prayer
Both for themselves and those who call them friend?
For SO the whole round earth is every way
Bound By gold chains about the feet OF God.
