SCANDAL.
BY NEWTON HALL, d. D.

Three is perhaps no sin more
prevalent among professors Of
religion and less recognized as
sinful than speaking evil OF
others. There are many per-
sons who would not for the
world steal a dollar, or tell a
downright lie, or carry on Sun
day trade, or give up church
going, who yet make habit of
talking scandal. This some
times is even dignilied with a
religious semblance, Some ev-
identity consider that Sunday
talk is discussing religious peo-
pie. If Parson This or Deacon
That is put under microscope,
and his defects, real or suppos-
ed, pointed out; if the misdo-
ings of another sect or a rival
congregation are descanted on,
this is religious conversation. 1t
may be the worse abuse Of the
tongue. How much less oppos-
ed to the association Of Sunday,
how much less irreligious it
would be to discuss the mar
kets and the harvest, or even
theatre and the ballroom, than
thus to offend against the char
ity which is the very essence Of
true Christianity. st. Paul
tells us that we may read the
Bible in its original tongues,and
preach it in all the languages
of the world, and possess the
most profound knowledge Of
theology, and expound it with
angelic eloquence, and be the
instrument Of doing more good
in converting sinners than if
we healed the sick and raised
the dead, and in ostentation
benevolance give all our prop
erty to the poor, and in the en-
Of zeal give our body.
to The stake; and yet that, if
destitute Of charity, all this
would profit us nothing. And
The McArthur enquirer. (M'arthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1873-1884, 1873-08-20

When a man and his wife
quarrel, we must hear both
sides, before we can fairly
judge between them. There is
another case in which there are
two sides to the question. For
a long time we have consid-
cred "choirs" great nuisances,
but a short time ago we did as
politicians used to do--that is,
we got con the fence" and
could not tell how to choose be-
tween the pews and the choir.
Very lately, we have jumped
down on the choir side, and
now we think it we'll to have
some to praise the Lord for if
the choir did not do it, nobody
would. Everybody abuses the
singing of the choir, and yet
the brethren and the sisters
too, lean lazlly back in the pew,
as if at a fifty-cent concert, and
leave a few jealous ones to
scream themselves hoarse in
trying to fill the house with
music, when if everybody
would take hold on the, tune,
anywhere or any how the house
would resound with praise to
God, and, in fact, if the choir
did not sing to please the pews,
the latter could carry 1T all
their own way. Now, since a
bird that wont sing, can't be
made to sing, we think it only
fair that those who are too lazy
or sick to worship God be per-
mitted to furnish hymn books
to the Lords poor, who have
the desire to worship but are
unable to purchase what they
need. If you will allow us to
suggest that hereafter it be the
duty of the deacons to ascer-
tain of each silent member
whether he is sick or lazy; and
if he is neither, then to provide
the member with a neat, plain
copy of the church to which he
belongs.-Relsgtosts Herald. Dr.,

Selected Poetry.
The Helping Hand,


God sets our feet in thorny paths,
And hens us in with fear and doubt,
That we may early look to him,
And trust his care to help us out
OF dangers we could meier withstand,
Did he not lend helping hand,
Each day we gira ourselves airesh,
And with new zeal our way pursue;
While Satan ever strives to hide
The Canaan glOries from our view;
We nG'or sh0uld reach the heavenly land
But for a Sqvior's helping hand.
Through fire and food, through clouds
and storms
That threatcd madly to destroy;
We reach tho heaven Jf rep0se,
And feel the Angels thrill. of joy
For all these CULTS of life are spanned
BY him who lcnps helping hand!
OmOments that are fraught with painl
days that bring us no repose!
How could we live we o. 'er again,
And find solaCe for Our woes,
Did not Savior understand
How much we need his helping hand!
BE with us, Jesus, every hour;
For all Is dark when thou'rt not near;
And all these dreadful clouds that lower,
Before thy presence disappear;
on give us strength hencefOrth to stand,
Upheld by thy Almighty hand!

How hypocritical the sorrow
of an evil-speaker. He prefa-
ces his with with ; GIVE been
dreadfully shocked to hear
such things I'm very, very
grieved to have to tell you so
and So" But how often be-
meath this mask there is Gre
joicing in iniquity," There is
positive satisfaction, there is an
exultation, ill-concealed, at the
inconsistencies and disgrace of
an enemy, of a rival, of any one
who has stood high in the esti-
nation of others. The evil
speaker should bear in mind
that, whether the person ma
Hinged be guilty or innocent,
the speaker condemns himself,
as lacking that charity without
which he is nothing.
A friend of the writer, just
dead, would never tolerate evil
speaking in his presence, al
ways saying: "Don't take the
judges chair" Another, when
evil is spoken against another,
says: " GO on, I am ready to
hear. Only remember | shall
go at once to the person and
tell him all you say of hin" "
Another used to exclaim -
;" Stop the trial until we send
for the accused, and hear what
he has to say for himself" Ut-
terly opposed to this love of
scandal is the charity that
thinketh no evil. 1t delights
in goodness, looks for it, is
prompt to recognize every sign
of it, and heartily commends it
to others. AS a mother, be-
cause she loves her child, is
10th to accept any accusation
brought against it, but is prompt
to believe whatever is said in
the child's praise, so charity to
our neighbor will lead us to be-
lieve all things in his favor, so
far as it is possible, and even,
in the absence of evidence, to
" hope all things" AS greedy
vultures pouncing down on a
putrid carcass, as filthy as flies
round a sinking dirt
heap, are the gossipers, who,
with evident relish, utter dis
traction or listen to it. AS the
lark which scars and sings only
in the light, as bees which are
attracted only by the flowers
that exhale sweetness, so are
the possessors of that charity
which thinketh no evil but re-
joiceth in the truth.-Mdpen-

for each pint, some whole Gin
namon, sugar to suit the tast
and a few raisins, and bake
like rice pudding. A little but
ter or chopped suet may be
added. Serve hot or cold, with
or without sauce.
IT is not SO generally known
as it ought to be that stale
bakers, or other loaf bread, may
be made as nice as freshly
baked, by dipping the loafin
clean cold water and warming
through in q bake oven. Much
bread might be saved that is
thrown away, if this were more
generally practiced than it is.
APPLE JAM.-Pare and quar-
ter the apples, which should be
ripe and of the best eating sort;
put them in a pan with just
water enough to cover them,
and boil until they can be re-
duced to a mash. Then for each
pound Of pared apples, pound
of sifted sugar is added, sprin~
kled over the boiling mixture.
Boil and stir it until it is re-
duced to a jam. Then put it
into pots. The above is the
most simple way of making it;
but to have it of the best posi-
BILE cleanness, make a thick
sirup with three pounds Of SUI
gar to each pint of water, and
clarity it with an egg. Then
add one pint Of the sirup for
every three pounds of apples,
and boil the jam to a proper
thickness.
ROMAN PUNCH.-Take two
pounds of best loaf sugar; beat
fine the peels Of three oranges !:
then add the juice of eight or
ten oranges, one quart of water,
and lemon juice in such pro-
portion as to give a dash Of
acidity without making posi-
lively sour. Now pass through
a thin cloth. Whip up the
whites of four eggs, and mix in
well. To ten punch glasses
add half a tumblerful of rum.
Freeze it and serve up in punch
glasses set around the table, or
set it on the table in an urn OF
pitcher after the company are
seated, and let each person
help himself. Roman punch
comes in just after you COM
mence the meat dinner, or after
you remove the meats-like
champagne, and to take the
place of sangaree--not as a
dessert, or with dessert.
CUSTARD WITHOUT EGGs.-To
one quart of new milk, one
teaspoonful of rennet wine, or
a small piece of rennet, a little
lemon, nutmeg or vanilla, or
any spice you prefer, add one
tablespoonful of sugar to each
quart Of milk. If too sweet,
the milk will not set firmly or
quickly. Stir all together, and
set by the stove or near the
fire.; cover closely It should
begin to stiffen in an hour. If
it does not, add more wine or
rennet. When firm, before the
