ADVICE TO YOUNG GIRLS.

Every young girl, in the sweet fresh
ness of life's morning, should settle first
of all the question of what she owes to
Christ. 1t is personal question, which
should go home to every heart. COnse-
Grated Christian womanhood can do very
much for the Master. No loveliness of
face, no grace of form, no entangling
qualities of disposition, however amia-
BILE, are enough to make a girl really
beautiful. strong and winsome, unless
added to all there is the gentleness of a
holy life, the sweetness of an unfalter-
ing faith, and the benlgnity of full
surrender to the Lord. 1t is within the
province of young girls to set the fash
ion of sensible amusements. They should
not think it an unworthy vocation to
plan and carry forward pleasant parlor
entertainments, where charades are enac-
ted and tableaux are presented. They
should use their music, their wit, their
readiness in conversation, and their
graceful and attractive toilets, in pro-
noting the substantial good and the in
nocent pleasures of the place where they
live. A young girl whose home is love-
ly, and whose parents are we'll placed
socially, should consider it privilege
to extend helping hand to other girls
less favorably situated than herself.
Many an unobstrusive courtesy. a fow-
er, book, kind word, a call, an invi-
tation to tea, walk, pleasant recog-
milton when coming or going out of
church, may be given by this happy
girl, queenly in her gracious freedom
from care, to that other whose home is
dull. whose associations are uncongenial,
and whose range of occupations is mar

WASTED MEANS, THOUGHTS FOR
THE NEW YEAR.

The human race must be wonderfully
thrifty to stand all the losses it sustains
by wasted means. Among these we may
reckon all unavoidable losses, such as
those by storms, earthquakes, grasshop-
pers and other natural calamities, as al
so portion of those caused by fires and
shipwrecks. Among the self-inficted
losses are all those from wars, broils and
riots from fires caused intentionally or
by gross carelessness from shipwrecks
cause in either of these ways, and from
lnjudicious, improbable or mischievous
investments, of which latter long cat
alogue may be made out. Such, for in
stance, as injurious papers and periodi-
Gals which 60 on year after year., eqHr een,r
yielding no good return. In like man
ner, the whole expenditure on false re-
ligious systems, including the support
of their priests and cost of their places
of worship, is not only lost but worse
than lost to the human race. And so
with the halls, regalia, ETC., of all use
less or mischievous societies. A still
greater, because more general and con-
tinuous drain on the resources of the hu-
man family is the use of intoxicating
drinks and tobacco, together with opium
in China, bang in Burmah, and other
narcotics. All the money invested in
these indulgences is not only wasted but
far worse than wasted, seeing that it
causes great losses in many other ways.
If all the means uselessly or injuri-
ously expended could be reckoned up.
the sum would probably amount to a
third or perhaps more of the whole earn
ings and gains of the human race.
With all this enormous waste turned
into good channels, what extraordinary
progress might we not see in this world
With fifty per cent. more spent for good
objects than there is now, and the griev-
Gus drawback of bad expenditures re-
moved, would We not soon see the proph.
ecles fulfilled that the wilderness and
the solitary place would be glad, the
desert blossom as the rose. and that the
knowledge of the Lord would cover the
earth as the waters cover the channels
of the sea
Now it is the bene6cent mission Of
Christianity not only to regenerate the
human race spiritually, but to restrain
all the bad expenditures which drain its
resources and retard its prosperity and
usefulness. And it is a remarkable fac
that any nation or country or denOmina
tion or congregation or family or indi
vidual who will abstain from all foolish
wasteful and injurious expenditures will
at once reap the benefits of this eminent
ly Christian course.
Let all begin the New Year determin
ed to invest in nothing but what is fol
the glory of God and good of men, as il
the case with all useful expenditure

STEwED OYsTER.-The following IS
said to be Delmonico's method of stew
ing,oysters flake one quart of liquid
oysters put the liquor "a teacupful for
three) in stew-pan, and add half as
much water: salt, good bit of pepper,
a teaspoonful of butter for each person,
and teaspoonful of rolled cracked for
each. Put on the stove, and let it boil /;
have your oysters ready in bowl. The
moment the liquor begins to boil pour
in all your oysters, say ten for each
person, or six will do. Now watch
carefully, and as soon as it begins to
boil take out your watch, count just
thirty seconds. and take your oysters
from the stove. You will have your
big dish ready with one and half
tablespoonfuls of cold milk for each
person. Pour your stew on this milk
and serve Immediately. Never boil an
oyster in milk if you wish it to be
good"

row. How life broadens and brightens,
too, to her who regards it as a precious
trust from God! We are made glad by
what we give, and not by what we get.
She who has it in her power to begin a
pleasant thing, to set fair example,
and to inspire those near her to right
ways and generous works, wields wo-
mans royalest scepter. One difident,
shy, yet brave and womanly girl, can
renovate and revolutionize the society
in which she moves.

sympathy nor consideration. At Banty,
he was admitted into the hospital, where
for eight days the surgeon thought he
would never get over his wounds: but
thanks to a good constitution and exceed
ing care, he did so. In thirty days he
took his first walk in the yard of the
hospital, and so on the thirty-sixth day
he returned home convalescent.

MIR. MOODY LEAVING CHICAGO.

The Chicago Tribune has the follow
ing account of the farewell services of
Mr.. Moody in that city, on the 18th,
and of the results of the meetings:
Mr.. Moody has for long time re-
fused to give the number of hopeful
conversions resulting from his meetings,
but the following facts and figures may
serve to show the magnitude of the sue
cess over which 10000 or $4,000 of
the Christians of Chicago and vicinity
met to rejoice last evening. There are
4,5O0 chairs on the main floor of the
Tabernacle, all of which were occupied
by persons who came in on young con-
verts' tickets. There were also many
of the same class in the galleries, be-
sides those who, being late, were not
able to gain admittance at ALL 1t is
safe to say that 1900 new members
have already been received into the
churches of Chicago and vicinity, with
perhaps an equal number known to the
pastors, who are expected to join at
some future time. ,v.ra o,ven ont
for the farewell meeting, Of which
careful record was kept of the name,
residence, and church-membership of
every individual and the names sent to
the pastors of these churches, into whose
care they appropriately fall. Every
one is to be looked after, and as, accord
ing to the proportion of several lists
already examined, not more that one in
ten of the professed converts have yet
joined any church, the whole number of
conversions, and of persons reclaimed
from backsliding, cannot fall short Of
5000, besides uncounted multitudes
who have come from other places and
returned with a blessing on their souls,
whose names, of course, did not appear
on the record.
The rush for admission at the Taber-
nacle last evening was immense, at times
seeming likely to break down the doors
and precipitate the crowds outside upon
the densely packed audience within.
The exercises opened with singing,
We're going home tomorrow : then
there was prayer by DR.. Evarts; then
another hymn, What a friend we have
in Jesus ; after which Mr.. Moody made
his appeal for the thank-offering, asking
for $4,000 to pay the expenses of the
revival meetings, the $67, mortgage
on Farwell Hall, the floating debt,
and to leave balance in the Young
Mems Christian Association treasury
for prosecuting the further work of that
Society. He then read a list of sub
scriptions already received, which, with
the collection, amounted to between
100000 and $4,000. After the thank
offering, the Hallelujah chorus was sung
right heartily, and Mr.. Moody preached
his farewell sermon. He then led in
closing prayer full of love and tender
ness; parting hymn was sung by Mr..
Sankey. commencing Shall we meet
beyond the river?' then the vast con-
gregation joined in singing the doxology
and the benediction was pronounced by
the Rev. Mr.. Thompson.

A DOUBTING HEART.

Where are the shadows fed?
Frozen and dead,
Perchance upon some bleak and stormy shore.
o Odoubting heartl
Far over purple seas,
The balmy southern breeze,
To bring them TO theii northern home once more
Why must the flowers die?
Prisoned they lie
In the cold tomb, needless Of tears or rain.
o Odoubting heart!
They only sleep below
The soft ermine snow,
While winter winds shall blow,
To breathe and smile upon you soon again.
The sun has hid its rays
These many days;
viii dreary hours never leave the earth?
o doubling heart
The stormy clouds on high
Veil the same sunny sky.
That soon Qor spring is nigh)
Shall wake the summer into golden mirth.
Fair hope is dead. and light
is quenched in night.
What sound can break the silence of despair?
doubling heart!
The sky is overcast,
Yet stars shall rise at last,
Brightest for darkness past,
And angels silver voices stir the air.

rmr CHISHOLM TRAGEDY.

When the Chisholm tragedy was pub
iishsd to the world there vas . howl Of
indignation in the North; bot the indis-
nation ended with the howl. Nothing
has been done by the Federal Govern
msut to bring the perpetrators Of the
crime to justice. The men who killed
Judge Chisholm and his daughter are
roaming evsr the vast fields Of Missis-
sippi. a. free to-day - their fathers were
n hundred years ago. In this nation
crime seems to Be issalizsd BY Political
clubs, and no matter where the crime Is
committed the political club in whose
intsrest IL Is done endorses and gives
immunity TO the criminal.
They do these things differently in
Great Britain. Great Britain 10 q mon-
arehy, hut some Of its laws are far in
advance Of those Of y much soastsd
R-public. Queen Victoria protects her
subjects. and when she cannot savs the
lives Of her people she avsnsea their
deaths. In the Chisholm tragedy q
sco,cbuau was killed. and Gre,t Britain
now proposes. through her consul. 'o
investigate the killing. Tho result Of
this investigation may b. a war between
England and America. IN any even, it
will he a disgrace to the great Republic
Z, have a foreign nation step In and do
what it il the bouhden duty Of this great
nation 10 do.
The Chisholm tragedy 10 u oil the
most dastardly murders on record. The
Judge who laid down his life had son.
mi,,.i In, one crime. the crime OF being
"A Republican. Of course In the soon
eilia,ed'' South this Is the crime OF
crimes. Bat to kill q man in cold blood
for expressing his opinions and voting
in accordance with his ideas, In not
sanctioned by any Law which has been
brought to our notice In this broad land
OF Freedom" Judge Chisholm may
have erred in his opinions. We do not
think he did. But supporting that be
wa. wrong. is that any justification Tor
deliberate assassination Hs had CON-
mitted M crime against the laws OF his
State or his country. Why. then. should
h, be shot down. with his daughter and

Since the American Republic cannot,
or will not. reach this case. u Is well
that England steps to the front, and In
