Some men whine and cry like whipped
dogs if religious man presumes to call
in question some crude nonsense that they
call science. But Christians do not whine
and cry when their thought is opposed.
Let thought meet thought. What is
thought worth that will not stand the cru
cible? Every generation is bringing forth
its stuff against the Christian laith-but
what does it amount to? The world rolls
on, and the rocks stand, and the sane
heavens are above US, and the same God
above the heavens! We expect to meet
false thought with true thought-and then,
if any body chooses the false and the shall
low, on him be the result. Now, mark
you, do not say there is any collision be-
tween religion and science; far from it.
The leaders in science are usually pro-
foundly relig, Gus. The greater includes
the less. But there is IA kind of thin skin
ned creatures that cry out like whipped
spanleS if We propose to investigate what
they say. believe in free thought Chris
tianity is the great defender of free thought.
At the same time thought has its laws,
and no thought deserves TO stand that can
not defend itself (Freedom is not the chief
thing to be desired, but rectitude.) Free
dom is only II means to in end. Suppose
think that every rich man ought to be
knocked down and robbed, and his money
distributed to the poor. Perhaps have
right to think so; but have [ II right to
preach it? And. if so, has not another
man right to reply? Suppose l think
that all the people in this city. who are not
worth at least hundred dollars apiece,
ought to be reduced to slavery. Perhaps
| have right to think so but have right
to preach it?
Suppose think marriage IS all wrong,
and there ought to be perfect free love,
so called. and write book to bring it
about. Have | right to send it through
the mails and distribute it among your
sons and daughters? Uncle Sam does not
think so, and will not allow me so to use
the posL-office. Is Uncle Sam a tyrant?
The fact is. thought has its laws, and the
general sentiment of the community must
put some restraint on eccentricity and
what it believes is dangerous to society.
There is no land where the expression of
thought is so free as in this land. There is
no religion that tolerates freedom of
thought rs much as Christianity. Still
there must be. in times of danger especi-
ally, some restriction. Just how much
and how applied is one of the deepest
problems of government My convictions
are in favor of freedom, the largest posi-
BILE freedom; still have reason enough to
see, and honesty enough 10 say, that free
dom of thought is not the principal thing
desired. but correctness of thought, and
approve freedom because that is the best
method of obtaining right.-Dr. E. 0.

TINE FOR ECoNoMY.-A man from the
lower walks of life entred drug store in
Detroit. and inquired the price of an ounce
of arsenic. Being informed, he drew
paper from his pocket, consulted some
figures, and said:
That's two cents more than they asked
me in Chicago.
Well, these are my lowest figures, re-
piled the druggist
The man took out stub of pencil,
figured for three or four minutes, and
sagely observed:
It's time to practice economy, and
might as well begin here. Two cents on
an ounce is thirty-two cents on pound.
Thirty-two cents on pound is $32 on
hundred weight, or S6400 on ton.
Great heavens! but do you think | would
recklessly throw away $640O?
The druggist could make no reply. and
the man looked terribly indignant as he
went out.

Mind your stops. A compassion, in
setting up the toast: Woman--without
her, man would be savage got the
punctuation in the wrong place, which
made it read; Woman, without her
man, would be savage"

1t is reported by member of the COM
