going into the house slapped down his plicky,
jerked off his dickey, and danced hornpipe

by throwing his arms around his wife, as she

The MAN WHO HAD BEEN TO THE CENTEN-
N1AL.-A bashfll appearing man stepped in
to the Enquirer editorial room the other even
ing, and edging up to the table of the mana
ging editor, hat in hand, said in hesitating
way: "You like little items for your paper, I
suppose?"
Certainly" replied Mr.. Cockerill, "a news
paper, like life, is made of little items. What
have you to offer ?"
"Well," said the bashful man, playing with
his hat band, "my name is Smith-John
Smith-and I've just got home"
"Glad to see you back again, Mr.. Smith" !"
said Cockerill "been gone long
~ have been," said Mr.. Smith, with tre-
NOR of pride in his voice, Ito the Centennial,
and if you want to make little notice"
"Wbat! cried Cockerill, springing to his
feet, "you've been to the Centennial And
you've got back? Give US your hand; I'm
delighted to see you. Spear, let me introduce
you to John Smith. John has been to the
Centennialp'
Spear shook hands very warmly with Mr..
Smith, and then ran to the aperture COM
municating with the reporters room and
shouted:
"O'Shaughnessy, come in here, quick; here
is man that's been to the Centennial" !"
Then O'Shaughnessy bounced in, followed by
his assistants, all of whom embraced the be-
wildered Smith warmly, and expressed the
qualification it afforded them to meet man
who had been to the great national Exhibition.
Word got down stairs somehow, and Joe Nc
Dowell, Bill Small, and Uncle Joe Shadenge
came up stairs at tearing rate, to gaze upon
the individual who had been to the great Ex-
hibition. .....
It was too much for the modest man to bear,
and murmuring something about making an
item of his return if they wanted to, he hur-
ried out just in time to meet the foreman and
thirty.two compositors on the stairs, all eager
to get glimpse of the man who had "been to
the Centennial" ......

For another reason, the Apostles Paul and
Peter exhorted Christians of their day, to sa'
lutte one another with. holy kiss. In the
early churches, the men occupied one part. ol
the house and the women the other. In other
words, the male and female worshippers did
not sit together in the public assemblies. On
assembling at the house, or place of public
worship, those protesting faith in Jesus Christ
kissed each other. This kiss was symbol of
brotherly love. 1t was designed to show that
they we're followers of the same Lord and
Saviour. No more fit token of brotherly love
could be adopted ; hence the kiss which was
the symbol of brotherly love, was rightly
called holy kiss. .s..l 49, ... '.v.
In the early churches, the Lords Supper
was dispensed frequently; perhaps every
Sabbath. Before distributing the bread and
wine, the symbols of Christs body and blood,
the person officiating rose up and said, "Let
none bear malice against any; let no one do
this in hypocrisy" The men then kissed the
men, and the women kissed the women.
The ancient Christians called this "the kiss
in the Lord" It was a symbol Of honesty Of
purpose and sincerity in action. 1t emblem
lied their union with Christ and with one an.
other. 1t was, in a particular sense, public
declaration that Jesus Christ is Lord Of all,
and all believers in Christ are breth rem. This
kiss in the Lord, or holy kiss, was q symbol
izing of the great Scripture doctrine that there
is but one church; but one Spirit by which
all members Of that church live; but one
faith but one baptism, and but one heaven to
which all true believers are journeying. Ephe.

1t may be asked, are We Of the present day
bound to observe this ceremony? We an
swer, not in the letter, but in the spirit. We
are as much under obligation as were the
Christians of old to forgive our enemies and
make peace with them. We are bound, BY
the 4injunction, of Paul and Peter, in some
way OF other, to symbolic our love for the
brethren. We are still bound, when we cele.
brate the Lords Supper, to symbolise the
truth that! Jesus Christ is the Saviour Of sall
who believe in him, and that all believers are
one in Christ. We may adopt our own node

AND MANDRAKE PnLs.-Thes medicines have un-
doubtedly performed more cures Of Consumption
than any other remedy known to the American pub
lie. They are compounded of vegetable ingredients,
and contain nothing which can be injurious to the
human constitution. Other remedies advertised as
cures for Consumption, probably contain opium,
which is a somewhat dangerous drug in all cases.
and If taken freely by consum ptive patients, Z must
do great injury; for its tendency is to confne the
morbid matter in the system, which, Of course. must
make a cure impossible. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup
is warranted not to contain a particle of opium: 1t
is composed OF powerful but harmless herbs, which
act on the lungs, liver, stomach, and blood, and
thus correct all morbid secretions. and expel all the
diseased matter from the body. These are the only
means by which Consumption can be cured, and as
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic, and
Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which operate
In this way, 1t is obvious they are the only genuine
cure for Pulmonary Consumption. Each bottle of
this invaluable medicine is accompanied by full d.
rections. DR.. Schenck is professionally at his prin-
cipal Office, corner Sixth and Arch Streets, Phila-
delphia, every Monday, where all letters for advice

THE almost universal testimony of
men and women who have undergone
great fatigue, such as riding long journeys
without stopping, or sitting up several
nights in succession, is that they could
do it best upon an occasional cup of tea
and nothing else. But a little tea or
coffee restores quite as much as a great
deal; and a great deal of tea, and espe-
cially of coffee, impairs the power of di-
gestion.
ALL do not know that lemons sprinkled
with loaf sugar almost completely allay
feverish thirst. They are indispensable
in the sick room. Invalids affected with
f~eyerishness can safely consume three or
four lemons a day. Alemono or two thus

entire substitute for the ordinary supper
of summer, and will often induce a com
