Baseball,

The Reds play the Hartfords today
at the grounds of the former. There are
but four more League games to be
played here this season. Make the
most of your opportunities.
On account OF some mistake as to the
time at which the Columbus Buckeyes
and the Reds we're to play here, the
former club were on hand yesterday in
accordance with their understanding of
the agreement, but as Manager Keck
thought IL must have been later, the re-
suit was that the game not being adyer-
tlsed came of tor the especial benefit of
about twenty-five lockers on. But the
feeling of the usual baseball spectators
were saved laceration, as the Buckeyes
sat down on our boys to the tune of five
to one. But four base hits were made
by the Reds. 1t wasn't much OF game

This is no quack nostrum, but the
| prescription of a regular and successful
city physician Of extensive practice and
| reputation; the prescription has been
used for some years III our own families
with invariable success.
During the late war it was given To
many OF our friends and volunteers in
the army, who were suffering from Diar.
rhea, caused by change of water, un.
healthy and improperly cooked food.
and in every case it was used with the
best results.
1t is scientific prescription prepared
with the greatest care, and we recon.
mend it with the utmost confidence as the
best remedy known for the diseases
mentioned.
Every family should have bottle Of
this Cordial ready for immediate use. A
single dose of only few drops in the
early stage OF these diseases will often
check and cure the disorder.
Travellers, who are subject to so many
changes of water and diet, will find this
a valuable article. The Walls are small
and strong, and can be carried without
Inconvenience.

Some Questions Answered.
From the Christian Index.

From the Christian index.
EDrroRs INDEX -Query 1. Is is right
for ministers of the Gospel to drink ar
dent spirits as a beverage, or "take q
social glass with friend ?"
Query 2 is it right for deacon to
become so addicted 10 the moderate
use of liq Iors that yOu can not get near
enough to shake hands with him with
ont inhaiing the poisonous fumes of
the fell destroyer?
Query 3. is is right for members Of
the church to take u social glass at
fashionable bar, as you know the idea
prevails that one drink win do no harm
to any one ENQUIRER.
We arswer: /. Ministers of the
Gospel should be themselves ex-
amples to their flock, as well as
teachers. Public opinion, in and
out Of the church, condemns such
practices aud while there is no
declaration in the New Testament
against taking a social glass with
friend" there are many passages
which very clearly define his duty
on all such subjects. 1t is not
stated in the Scriptures, that the
Apostles and early Christians had
auy habits Of this character. If
they conformed to the customs of
those times they, doubtless, drank
wine at feasts and weddings, I'M
less they were members of some
Il importance society, Of which,
however, we have no distinct
account. In these times, and all
times, Christian ministers should
love so ardently their Lord and
Master, and the souls Of sinners
and the peace of Zion, that if "a
social glass with friend make a
brother to offend, they should take
no more social glasses while the
world standeth, etc. / Cor. viii 13.
2. Tt is not right. IA deacon 50
addicted needs to be " labored
with in meekness and Christian
charity. He il in great danger,
and has already caused grief to
his brethren.
8. This is clearly wrong Chris
tians are out of place when there
for such a purpose. By their
fruits We shall know them. Drink
ing in a saloon by i professor Of
religion il bearing evil fruit, and
leads to drunkenness 0ud All man-
ner Of sins.
