PscK,s EXPERIENCE WITH 4 COAh
8 STOVE.

We never had coal stove around
the house until last Saturday.
Have always burned pine slabs and
pieces of our neighbors :fehce. TheYf
burn well, too, but the fence got
burned up. and the neighbors. said
he wouldn't build new one, so we
went down to Jones' and got coal
stove. 1t is called Radiant Home"
and any man that says we didn't
have q radiant home at our house
for about four hours last Saturday
night, is u republican and villain.
You see we didust know any thing !
about coal stoves. We filed the |
Radiant Home about half full of
pine fence, and when the stuff got |
well to going we filed the artesian
well on top with coal. Itgsimmered
and sputtered about i've or ten
minutes and all went out, and we
put on an overcoat and a pair OF
buckskin mittens and Etwent out
too" to supper. We remarked, in
the course of the frugal meal, that
Jones was ''froud' for Fecoms
mending such a COMPOUNDED Tefrig-
orator to a man 10 get warm by.
After supper we took a piece of ice
and rubbed our hands warm, and
went in where that stove was, re-
solved TO make her draw and burn
it took all the pine fence in the
first ward. Our better half threw
quilt over her and shiveringly re-
marked that she never knew what
real solid comfort was until she
got coal stove.
StuDg by the sarcasm in her re-
mark, we turned every dingus In
the stove that was movable, OF
looked like IL had any thing to dc
with a draft, and pretty soon the
Radiant Home began to heavC
up new heat. II was not long be.

The next room. We opened tn
doors, and the snow began TO mel

combc's house, and people al
round the neighborhood put %
linen clothes. And we couldn't sto
the COMPOUNDED thing. We torgo
what Jones told US about the dam
pers, and she kept q billing. The on
y thing we could do was To go 1
bed, and leave the thing TO bur

ISFLrENCE Or THE GRANGEs.--l
AS we travel over the country, |
we everywhere witness the won
derful influence which the oranges
are producing. Farmers who have
before been comparatively isola-
ted from their brother farmers, as
soon as they join the grange, be-
come different men--have broader
sympathies, kindlier feelings and
higher aspirations. They seem to
feel that they have somebody be-
sides themselves to live for. They
give each other warmer grasp of
the hand, and salute one another
more cordially. They bury the
partisan, sectarian and other
prejudices that have heretofore
made them strangers, and almost
enemies. They meet one another
as friends and brothers, and talk
over their matters, their prospects
and hopes, in the most confiden-
tial manner. They talk more than
formerly, read more, think moro.
They learn that it is rs necessary
to cultivate their brains as their
crops. They feel that what is for
the interest of another; and that
it is only by mutual cooperation
that they can protect and advance
their own interests. Knowing they
have the controlling numbers in
their county, state and nation,
they feet that they are masters of
the situations, if they act with wis
dom. They turn out in large num-
hers to listen to speeches upon
questions in which their interests
are involved-noE to believe and
swallow all that may be uttered,
but to carefully weigh Ind consid-
or it, rejecting what may be false
and holding to fast that which is
true. They regularly attend their
oranges, and enjoy these fraternal
visits. They feel that by every
such attendance they are benefited
socially, morally and intellectual
~. They take their wives and
daughters with them to these
meetings, that they may listen to
the lessons set before them, hear
discussions on subjects of inter
est, and thus derive the same adj
vantages that they do themselves.
We wish we had competent lee
turers To visit every grange in the
state, to discuss topics in which
farmers are most deeply interes-
ted, and hope the time is coming
when snch lecturers can he EN-
ployed. There is waking up
among the farmers, which we are
glad to witness. The grangers aIe
magnetic batteries, which are
throwing out an electrical current
of light and heat, which will affect |
every farmer in the land. Such |
batteries are wanted in every
neighborhood. We want them
positive batteries, and so fully |
charged that they will overcome |
all the negatives they may reach. |
Nothing has ever been developed |
that is doing so much good for
the farming community, as the |
grange. They bring into activity I
al! the latent powers of the far-
mer. He has been asleep. He is \
now awake, rcsolate, strong and
firm for the right and true, wher-
ever IL may be found.

their whole system dropped. The spiritual arls-
tocracy Is gone Even in these later times we
have seen the Puritan spirit in all its
beauty and splendor-tn the emancipation
Of slaves. The leaders had this Puritan spirit
They spoke OF slavery not as blunder or anachro-
nism, but as guilt before God. They levelled their
lowers OF Christ. THIS is the last time that the
Puritan spirit can assert itself with such domlneer
Ing iorce. We shall not speak or 1t when the
question OF
comes up. The Puritan spirit has had Its day. We
respect the men and women who take up the cause
OF women. Women should be allowed all the ad
vantages OF education. We do not say, In the name
code and call it Christs word. We must respect
one another's minds. We may respect the reform
ers who advocate the cause Of the Indians. The
Puritans studied texts. we study facts; they
believed In Scriptures; we believe in the books OF
scientific men. They had lew books and knew
nothing OF the world outside. That time has passed
to taxi take a position ike that Of the
Puritans. The Puritans made priceless
bequest TO the word-the supremacy OF conscience
In the individual II was colony OF conscience.
They had q prodigious seifrespcct. Every mans
conscience was Gibraltar. They did not waste
their lives in complications that would drag them
down to degradation. IL was not FOR men who
were the disciples OF Christ to be the leaders OF
ring and make poor men pay for the luxuries they
enjoyed, They dared not sin. ana no trlck ever
clung TO their consciences.
THEIR wEAK-KNEED DESCENDANTS
think they are assaed by thousand temptations,
and that the Purtans had support for their virtue
which they have not Did the Puritan make his
own conscience, or did the Bible give 1t to him ?
It was born or experience. The Puritan had the
experience or one nation-we have the experience
OF all mankind. There will be a hell as long aS
there is such thing as guilty conscience OF
shameful lie. The Puritan's conscience had no
stronger support than ours have. Those brave
and noble souls When will we sacrlnce SO much
and do such noble deeusS

SEVENTH AVENUE METHODIST CHURCH

The Seventh avenue Methodist Episcopal church
was well filed yesterday morning. After the usual
opening services Dr. Wild announced his text to
be from Revelations XIV. 13-"And their works do
follow them" The reverend Doctor held that
Christianity was not merely an abstract sentiment
OF the soul; II was an intelligent and vital union
between the Creator and tho creature-a union in
strength and essence equal to our knowledge or
God and constant conformity to His will. II was
an old time error that persists In measuring
mans religion by his feeling. Such Christians
were not lar removed In experience from the OK

Notwithstanding the increase in the price

stlmed its present noble proportions and rep
resentative character, the edition was more

anxious to justify the ready confidence thus
demonstrated, have exerted themselves to
the utmost to develop and improve the
work and the plans for the coming year,
as untolded by the monthly issues, will as
tonish and delight even the most sanguine
friends Of the Aldinc.
The Aldine will reproduce examples Of
the best foreign masters. selected with a
