DEDICATION OF PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

DEDICATION OF PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
The new Presbyterian church viii be
finished and ready for service by next
Sabbath, on which day it will dedica-
ted. The ladies are now putting down
the carpet, and the carpenters are busy
putting in the seats. The church when
completed will be one OF the handsom-
est in this part of the country, and one
that does credit to the people Of Millers-
burg and vicinity. Solomon set an ex-
ample to the world in the matter of
erecting Sanctuaries for the worship of
God. Gods house should be no mean
place, if possible to prevent it. We are
in duty bound to give of our means to
assist in building houses of worship !;
and had we but the liberality of the
people Of old, when about to erect the
temple, there would be no difficulty in
procuring plenty of means. They
brought in of the things that Solomon
had commanded them to bring, until
they had to be told to desist, that there
was more than enough. What is to
hinder our people from being thus lib
eral in these days? The people of Mil
lersburg and its immediate vicinity have
shown their liberality by giving of
their abundance during the past two
and three years to build churches, and
now, when one of these churches, that
are ornaments to our town, and which
enhance the value Of property several
per cent. is about to be dedicated, LET
every one step forward and contribute
of their means to the liquidation of the
debt that is still upon it. The services
of dedication will commence on Sab
bath morning at II O'Clock. The SER
mon will be preached by Rev. DIR. Tay-
lor, President of Wooster University.
In the evening Rev. DIR. Hays, Presi-
dent of Washington and Jefferson Col
lege, will preach. On Monday evening
following DR.. Hays will deliver lee
ture on the subject-@Everyday Rea-
soning." We are authorized to say that
all persons from a distant who may de-
sire to attend the dedication, are cordi-
ally invited to do so, and accommoda-
ton will be provided them.

That bindeth up the trust:
Oh. break it not, lest all the leaves
Shall scatter and be lOst'
In st. John we find this beautiful
sentence: "Beloved, let us love one
another, for love is of God; and every
one that loveth is born of God"
How truly miserable man would be
with no friends, no tender touch to close
his eyelids, when his sight becomes for
ever dim, none to breath a sigh at his
funeral, or to scatter flowers above the
lowly place where lie sleeps his last
sleep. r
To accomplish this unity and love in
its genuineness, requires untiring la
Dor. We can't sit down with folded
arms and expect everything to turn up
in a favorable manner through kind
of a ''natural process"-by chance, we
, may say. Weeds and thistles spring up
spontaneously, and without any effort
on our part, but it would surely be
poor harvest, were we not to prepare
the ground and sow our grain. Vigil
ance is necessary OH every hand; guard
ing against the things that are most
likely to dissuade us. We cannot ex-
pect our lives to be all sunshine and
fower-strewn paths, for often murky
clouds gather hastily upon our horizon,
and the flowers wither and hide the
thorns no longer.
Our faith is often tested. A good mans
life. is terrible conflict. Its battle
between right and wrong, and wrong
always has the upperhand, for it is said
we are "prone to evil" But be ready !;
be bivouacked for the fight as it comes,
and it may be we will come off more
than conquorer. Be up and doing
sand cheerfully singing farewell to life's
Il ills,
We will pass the last guide-post that
points to the hills :"

The Enterprise of the Chicago
Postmaster,

The Chicago Post office deserves
honorable mention for instituting one
of the most important postal reforms
of the day. Post Office letter boxes
have been placed on all the cross
town cars tLat traverse route be-
tween five and six miles in length
through both the residence and bust
ness districts of the west and south
divisions. As each car passes the Post
office carrier in waiting removes the
box and places another on the car
without stopping the vehicle, and the
first box is at once emptied of its con
tents into the mail bags. The adVan-
tage, particularly to people living at q
distance from the Post Office is simply
incalculable, and the statistics show
the travelling, boxes are rapidly dri-
wing the lamp-post boxes out of fash
ion st. Louis Globe. .e-

Henry Ward may have learned
something from his father, who used
to tell the following story: sfWhen I
lived in Litchfield / wanted a book
from the college library. I started in
my one-horse chaise for New Haven.
1 got the book and moved along
homeward. Reaching one of the long
hills, 1 got out to walk. / took my
book with me lest it should jostle out.
Just before the horse a black squirrel
was seen crossing the road, quite at
his leisure. 1 said "shoo !" but he did
not hasten. I SHE'D a stone at him.
The little creature stopped, turned and
looked me square in the face. In my
zeal hove the book at him. had TO
get new suit of clothes and burn my
old ones I then made a solemn vow
never again to throw Body of DiEiR-
ity at q skunk"
