again applied the bandage, and the pain
once more subsidized, but the rash reap
peared. He inferred that the rash indi-
Gated an impure blood; and this conclu-
sion was strengthened by the result of eX-
periments which he was induced to try
upon injuries and ulcers in the case of
some of his neighbors, since the rash in
some instances appeared after the treat
ment and in others did not. Thus he was
led to frame for himself a Immoral pa
tholOgy of all diseases, and doctrine of
the elimination of morbifc matters by
" Crisis" According to this view the
cure of disease is to be effected by favoring
the activity of those organs through
which the publication of the system is
carried on, and through regulated and
pure dietary and correct regimen, pre-
venting further morbid accumulations. In
his nineteenth year, being run over by a
cart, PriessnitZ had some ribs broken and
received severe bruises; on learning that
the physicians pronounced his case hope
less he tore off their bandages, and recov-
cred under the renewed application of the
UnaschJag, and replaced his ribs by in
fiating the lungs while pressing the abdo-
men against window-sill. This incident
confirmed the idea and initiated the prac-
tice of the water ure.-4ppleto1as' Anaer5-
can CgcI0p9diG.

The Crosses Christians Bear.

Some do not fear personal danger so
much as responsibility for others. To be
a decided Christian is to be marked
man, whose errors are scandal to the
weak, a burden TO the tender, and an ex-
cuse to the wicked. But the same burden
is upon the shoulders of every living
man; and it only presses specially upon
the Christian because he has a second and.
deeper life to live. There is no little child
whose behavior does not Smake ill-be
haved children either ashamed or shame
less. There is no young man or maiden
whose very look has not all effect upon
the words and acts Of some comrade,
since God has allowed the cruel frost of
utter isolation to close over no human
heart The merchant influences the mo-
rality of trade; the lonely student cannot
deepen the flood of thought without also
cleansing or defiling it. To dread re
sponsibility is to dread life 1t is only a
statue that sets no example to creatures
who have hands which can help or hinder,
and eyes which can flash with rage or
soften into sympathy. You will not be a
Christian because YOU shrink from danger
or from responsibility Then why have
you submitted for so many years to be
alive?
To be Christian is to labor A cross
has to be borne, a race has to be run, there
are unearthly enemies with whom to
wrestle, therefore, men shrink from the
din of battle and the dust of pilgrimage.
But yet the sap and salt, the freshness and
the vigor of our daily life would be lost
ii there were no contests, no campaigns,
no victories. What names are great in
history? whose monuments are sacred
whose birthplaces are venerated? Those
which belonged to men who scorned de-
lights and lived labOr1ous days; soldiers,
who slept on the ground and hungered
and bled; writers, who built the lofty
line in solitary days and sleepless nights,
with painful thoughtand deep experience;
reformers, who stood alone against the
world martyrs, whom they burned. These
are the men whose lives we applaud. But
even the most ignoble and dishonOrable
life is full of labor and veXation. To re-
fuse all toll is to groan under the hatred
of strangers and the reproaches of kins-
men; to indulge every appetite is to writhe
under hundred diseases. The reveler
of tonight aches and frets tomorrow. In
dolence never knows the JOY of bounding
pulses and a well braced system. No
man is so heavily laden as he who bears
no cross; none so miserable as the man of
pleasure.-ChriStidn AdUOcate.

The Beginning in Brooklyn.

In sermon and song there was nothing
but plain and wholesome Christian truth.
Few preachers indeed depend more ut
terly on the Bible than Mr. Moody, and
upon this depends in large measure his
wonderful success. Few Christian sing
ers SO put their heart into the tones of
their voice as does Mr. Sankey; and,
therefore, his sacred songs go straight to
the souls of their hearers. Five thou
sand people 90 without excitement and
many Of them without prepossession to a
building associated only with gayety and
frivolity; and they depart with hearts
elate and conscience aroused and courage
quickened Many, very many are pricked
il the heart and see that the door of the
church is open to them. Mr. Moody is
singularly successful in making it plain
that it is easy to begin to be a Christian;
but that the warfare must be carried on
increasingly to life's end. Thus he neither
frightens the sinner away nor hurries him
on to backslide in a week This, then,
is the beginning Of movement which
seems likely TO affect thousands all over
the land. 1t is plain that a revival so be-
gun demands the heartiest sympathy the
warmest prayers and the most cordial
cooperation of Christians of every name.
1t cannot be snuffed out with sheer. 1t
can be helped by every person who reads
these words.-N 7. independent.
