Duty of Attending Church Courts.

The st. Louis Presbyterian says: Z" 1t is
a matter of general complaint and a porten.
tous evil of the times, that 80 many absent
themselves, without sufficient excuse, from the
meetings of the Church judicatories. An
Agricultural Fair, political convention, or
their secular interests, easily draw them
away from home, but they cannot 60 to Pres
bytery or Synod, because cit is too far -
they " haven't time"-or, they "can't spare
the money" etc. And yet these good, in
consistent brethren do not fear to sing
81 love Thy kingdom, Lord,
The house of thine abode;
The Church our blessed Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood"

+" If e'er my heart forget

"If e'er my heart forget
Her welfare or her woe,
Let every JOY this heart forsake,
And every grief oeIfow."
How can they sing thus-how can they
claim to prefer Jerusalem above their chief
joy, when, through sheer indifference, or for
very trivial reasons, they refuse to attend the
Church courts

graphed to st. Adams, claiming him.
Nevertheless, the boy stOutly insisted, in
the face of his mothers telegram, that
he was the true and genuine Charlie
Ross; and. not until Mr.. Christian X.
Ross disowned him did he cease to so
represent himself. His case is one of the
curiosities of crime; and Milford letter
gives the following sketch of his career
When about one year old, he began to
have fits or spasms, which continued un-
severe attack of fever, and has enjoyed
good degree of health ever since. His
first escapade dates back to the time
when he was two years old, when he Wis
tied Mrs. Hall. From that time until
the present he has been missing from
time to time, being gone several days,
and telling his stories, and finally bring.
ing up anon the relatives of his parents,
in different parts of the country. -Four
years ago he ran away to Lowell and i'm
posed upon gentleman in that city, who
spent considerable tirae in trying Ia
trace out the stories which he told him,
and who took him home, kept him over
night, and at last returned him to Mil
ford. He went to Salem, Mass, follow.
ing his father to that place, where he was
on visit. here he staid awhile, then
struck out son his own hook" turned up
as wait, and at that time created con.
siderable excitement. This time he was
gone week before his mother could ind
out where he was, or whether he was
dead or alive. Since then he has run
away several times, visiting Manchester
last summer, and several other towns, re-
turning when he had visited enough.
His mother, upon being asked how the
boy came to represent himself as the
lost Charlie Ross, replied that the boy
had read the story in the papers until he
bad got it by heart, and she had often
heard him repeat it. She also said that
he resembled the photograph of the boy,
and had been told SO, and that there
were times when he would claim to be
the Ross boy, and tell her that she was
not his mother, and that he was not her
son, but Charlie Ross. He has also taken
a great interest in all that relates to the
lost boy, and in his movements has ap.
peared strange and shrewd, and has been
source of trouble and anxiety to hi.

scHEScx's PULMoNIc SYRUP, SEA WEED TOXIC, AND

"Consum ption 10 incurable" deferred physicians

to death without making an effort to escape from
doom which they supposed to be unavoidable. It's

A Painful Experience.

Harry Jay, a baggage man of the st.
Paul and Pacific Railroad, is an excm-
plifcation of nerve and presence OF
mind. Day before yesterday, at Mel
rose, Mr.. Jay caught his left foot be-
tween guard rail and the main rail
and was unable to pull it out, until he
was forced to by car that backed down
on him. lie was in such position that
the Car would run over him, and as an
alternative for the salvation of his body
he was obliged to sacrifice his foot. He
caught hold of the car and allowed it to
pull him along. His boot was strapped
to his foot and would pull off mil hty
hard. He stood it, and gradually the
boot gave way, the ankle cracked, the
thigh bruised and he was stretched out
" forty yards" as it appeared to him at
the time. The release came, but it was
painful one. His foot was twisted all
up, and his suffering in consequence was
intense. Whether anputation will be
necessary or not our informant was not
aware. 1t may be and then his life not
spared. Minneapolis Tribune.

American ParlOr Organs Abroad.

In the year closing June 30, 1875, the
United States exported to foreign coun-
tries, as shown by custom house returns
at Washington, parlor or reed organs to
the aggregate value of S363,132. The
exports for the previous year were $780,
151, showing some increase. 1t is re-
markable that moro than half of these
exports in each year were the cabinet
organs made by the Mason & Hamlin
Organ Company, whose exports in 1875
were 1856, $50, and in 1874 were $l63, 100.
Considering that there are in this coun-
try from two hundred. TO two hundred
and fifty makers, this fact. that more
than half the instruments, exported are
from this one. company shows in. what
high estimation its work is held abroad.

AT the recent s, ssion of the New York
Dairymen's Association, Prof. Roberts,
of Cornell University, gave an elaborate
argument to prove that it costs more to
heat food and water in an animal than
by coal. The design was to show that 1t
is profitable to cook food and to heat
water when very cold, before giving 1t TO
the cattle. There are a good may facts
to be taken into consideration in regard
to cooking food, but certainly it is a
clear case that, in all ordinary cases, it IL
cheaper TO provide comfortable quarters
for stock than to have them use up
large quantity of food in keeping up the
animal heat, and that, when it can be
avoided, 1t does not pay to expose stock
to cold rains, or to compel them to drink
water nearly at freezing point.
