Packing Butter for Winter.

There are a few requisites for packing
butter safely for winter use. The butter
must be good the salt must he pure
the packages must be clean and air-tight,
and perfectly well closed and the place
of storage must be cool, clean, airy, free
from mouldiness and not too dry. A
clean, well-aired cellar with cemented
floor, and in which vegetables are not
stored, is as good place as any for the
storage of butter for winter use. Pure
air is very important.-I6.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1879-12-03


The text Blessed are We when men
shall revile you and persecute you, and
shall say all manner of evil against you
falsely, for my sake, has received a new
illustration in modern missions Thorn
ton Sampson the young Virginia Presby-
terrain preacher who is working so nobly
in Greece, calls publicly for thanks to be
given for the prosecutions suffered last
year at Volos." 1t has increased the con-
gregation almost three-fold. The abuse
Of the priest at Athens has also been a
gratuitous advertisement, and brought
many people to see whether the Protes-
tant Christians were as bad as they Were
represented.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1879-12-03

A Roman Catholic writer says: "Who
will say that the uncommon beauty and
marvellous English of the Protestant
Bible is not one of the great strongholds
of heresy in this country? 1t lives on
the ear, like music that cannot be for
gotten like the sound of Church bells,
which the convert hardly knows how he
can forego. Its felicities seem often to be
almost things rather than words. 1t is
part of the national mind, and the anchor
of national seriousness. The
memory of the dead passes into it. The
potent traditions of childhood are stereo-
typed in its verses. The power of all the
griefs and trials of man are hidden
beneath its words. 1t is his
sacred thing, which doubt has never dim
med and controversy never soiled.
