Science and Religion.
Ziop's Herald,

There is no conflict between science
and religion; it is only between certain
scientists and distorted view OF Reve-
lation. Science and true religion are
one and inseparable, born of the same
Omniscience and equally leading the
humble student back to the same
fountain-head of knowledge and virtue.
At Saratoga. last week, on the Sabbath
occurring during the session of the
American Association for the Advance
ment Of Science, number OF the mem
bers arranged q meeting for conference
and prayer. A very delightful and
profitable occasion it proved to be.
Professor Wilson, Of Toronto, who has
written upon prehistoric man, presided
at the service and earnestly affirmed
that truth in religion was necessarily
harmonious with all truth in science.
He made Psul's inspired chapter upon
the resurrection the subject of the
meditation of the hour, as the great
central truth of the gospel, and i'm
pressively discoursed upon Christ and
the resurrection from the dead. A
committee was appointed to arrange
such religious service for the meeting
of the Association next year. "Thus,
as ever, Christ conquers."

AGOOd Talker.

The really entertaining conversationalist

OF talking with people who are gifted with

We meet people. who have spelt years ia

lopedisc, but who are utterly unable to
entertain others with their conversation.
Many who are greatly their interiors In
education, shine brighter In society. These
latter possess the faculty Of imparting
what they kno Y, while the others do not
receive credit for knowing as much az they
do, simply because they have not cultirat-
ed their social natures. They find that
their society Is not SO much sought after

strange that II IL SO; We would all rather

Of telling. that makes our company des.

Facts About Flour.
American Miller,

Flour is peculiarly sensitive to the at
mospheric influences. hence II should
never be stored In q room with sour
liquids, nor where onions or fish are kept
nor any article that taints the air Of the
room In which 1t Is stored. ANY smell
percepdble to the sense will be absorbed
by flour. Avoid damp cellars or lofts
where free circulation Of air cannot be
obtained. Keep In cool. dry. airy room,
and not exposed to q free cling teupera-
ture nor to intense summer or 70 artificial
heat for any length Of time above 20 to
IS deg. Fair. II should not come In con-
tact with grain or other substances which
are liable to heat. Flour should be si!ted
and the PARTICLES thoroughly disintegratei
and then warmed before baking. This
treatment improves the color and baking
properties Of the dough. The sponge

Lady Census takers.

Lady census takers will be a novelty
OF the next census. 1t is thought they
will be peculiarly adapted to some of
the requirements of canvassers, but
what these requirements are is not
stated, If an inventory of personal
property was desired, we can easily
understand with what superior intelli.
gence the lady census taker would in
quire how many monte" cloth dresses
the female American citizen possesses,
and if that lace was real yalcncicnues,
or that crushed grape scarf or parole
belt ives tn only one in the house. And
then there would be no fooling her as to
the ages of the family, for if there is
any one thing q woman can do better
than another, it is to tell at glance
how old people are-especially those of
her own sex. The number of babies in
the family and the date of their advent
would also be one of the most correct
tables in the next census report. Other
advantages, too numerous to mention,
make it not only expedient but abso-
lutely necessary that lady census takers
should be employed for the canvass,

Dairy Notes.

The results OF late experiments in
England show that Is IA quarts Of the
milk of Short-horne is required for q
pound OF butter. The same amount was
produced from 10 1-2 quarts Of Ayr
shire milk, 9 IL quarts Of Galloway
milk and 8 IL quarts Of Kerry milk, the
milk being produced a nearly as posi-
BILE under the same conditions.
In order to keep their butter over
the period Of low prices and the hot
weather, California dairymen seal up
their products in tin cans and sink them
in the bottom OF cold streams. Butter
made in April comes out in October in
good order and continues TO keep fresh
in the cool weather Of winter. Forty
four pound cans are commonly used.
From all parts Of the Northwest We
have reports Of great shrinkage Of milk
enough to warrant the belief that
from this cause there will be . falling
off Of the cheese product Of fully Is per
cent. as compared With last year, while
the universal change from cheese to
butter in Iowa will still further reduce
the amount. There will be An increase
in the amount Of butter produced this
year over last throughout the North

let me recite an incident which occurrei
some time after his death:
Twas passing the efice Of Fowler, tn,
phrenologist, in Fulton street, in who's,
window . plaster cast Of Burrs heai
had just been placed, and noticed tvt
ladies, richly dressed, standing befor,
it; one vas young, the other old. As
passed the young lady said impatiently
Grandma, Whist is there here to interes,
you SOP" why, said the other, ~hers
is cast of Colonel Burr" ~And whai
of that?" was the reply. "Ah. my dear,
said the old lady, in An Undesirable
tone, you never knew Colonel Burr.
met him often in society, and I am sure
he was the most lovable man I eve,
met"
Some assertions in an article on the
death of Colonel Burr, which appeared
in the New York Times during Last sum-
mer, are prejudiced and untrue. This
article speaks of his terrible outbursts
of profanity while on his deathbed, and
asserts that he died deserted by his
friends and bereft of human sympathy.
Now happen to know that the reverse
of this is true. Colonel Burr died, as
you know, at the Continental Hotel,
Port Richmond, Staten Island. His dis
ease was paralysis, . comparatively
painless malady. Judge Ogden Edwards
and wife. own cousins of Colonel Burr,
were then living in the old Dougon
Manor House on the island (Which, by
the way, has . history and devoted
themselves assiduously to the care of
their aged relative, and his friends in
New York were unremitting in their at.
tentions. During these last days Burr
lay every day in Q sort of stupor until
about three O'Clock in the afternoon,
when he would awaken active and viva
cious, attend to his business affairs read
the newspapers, and receive such visit
ors as might call. Many did call, and
among them the Rev. DR.. Vappelt, of
the Dutch Reformed church on the is.
land, who was frequently at his bedside.
Colonel Burr treated his visitor with
the respect and courtesy due his call
ing, and the doctor was much pleased
with him. They converted freely on re-
igious topics, and Burr expressed his
entire belief in the essential doctrines
of Christianity. At the end he died as
TRANQUILITY as q child sinks into slumber.
In conclusion, allow me to notice o
very pleasant aud mysterious story told
by Mr.. Parton in his Life of Burr"
the erection of Colonel
Burr's tombstone in the Princeton Col
lege churchyard. Mr.. Parton says that
this stone was not erected until some
time after the co'onel's death, and then
under the cover of the darkness, and
that no one knows to this day whose
was the hand that performed this friend
" act. But this story is untrue. The
facts of the case are these: When Colo
mel Burr's estate came to be settled
there were found large number of bad
debts, and some of these, after the es-
tate had passed out of the executors
hands, were paid, and the executors
came to Judge Edwards to know what
should be done with the money. He ad-
vised them to use it in the purchase of
. suitable monument to Colonel Burris
which was done, and the stone
was erected without any pretence of Sc
crecy. c. B. T.

The National Complaint.

Dyspepsia is the national complaint. AL
most every other man or woman you meet
has it, and the result is that the number OF
do-remedies for it is as numerous as Pha-
roah's host. They are for the most part
worthless. There is, however, a searching
eradicant of this distressing and obdurate
malady, one whose genuine merits long since
raised 1t to foremost place among the
staple medicines of America. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters extirpates dyspepsia with
greater certainty aud promptitude than any
known remedy, and is a most genial invigor-
ant, appetizer and aid to secretion. These
are not empty assertions, as thousands Of
our countrymen aud women who have expert
enced its effects are aware, but are backed
up by irrefragable proofs repeatedly laid be-
fore the public. The Btters also promote a
regular habit of body and give healthful
stimulus to the urinary organs.

"Pull Down That Dress"

If Irish wit is jolly and sparkling.
Dutch wit is none the less sharp and
pithy. The Rev. DR.. Samuel J. Mills
in historical address at the dedication
of beautiful chapel erected in mem
Cry of his wife, by Fl. "a. Farnum, Esq,
and presented to the Reformed (Dutch)
Church at Port. Jervis, N. Y, Oct. %,
1S7S-relatss the following incident of
Dominic Vas. of Kingston, who at times
from ITO to 1882 preached in the old
Dutch church then standing near where
Port Jervis is now situated:
His wife was Joanna Durland, the
daughter of rich merchant of Amster-
dam, possessing great beauty of form
and countenance, quiet in her manners,
well educated, and moving in the high
est circles of Amsterdam. The wife OF
Dominic Vas had acquired in her native
city love for display with the arts OF
social life, which made her the model OF
fashion for the ladies of Kingston in
her day, and at the same time an ex-
ceedingly useful woman to her husband
and those under his charge. Tradition
has handed down many testimonies oi
her exceeding great charms. 1t is said
of her that, when she had her recep-
tions in the old parsonage, as we'll az
when out to see her neighbors, this
good woman would coquettishly dis
play scarlet bordered petticoat, then
in fashion, by raising the skirt of hei
dress just little. The manners of the
town were SO modest and simple in those
primitive times that offense was taken
at it, and gossip began to say that the
Dominie's wife was not just what she
ought to be. The scandal was stopped
however, by the Dominie's advice, bu
not until his Consistory (Eldersl hat
requested him to "see that his wife d.
let her frock hang at full length" Ala
for that Consistory had they lived il
this degenerate day A sorry time o
it they would have in getting ladies
dresses to hang at full length.

The Old Days.
BY OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.

Yes, dear departed, cherished days,
Could Memory's hand restore
Your morning light, your evening rays
From Time gray urn once more
Then might this restless heart be still,
This straining eye might close,
And Hope her faintinS pinions fold,
While the fair phantoms rose.
But, like child in oceans arms
We strive against the stream,
Each moment further from the shore
Where life's young fountains glsam;-
Each moment fainter wave the fields,
And wider rolls the sea;
The ist grows dark-the sun goes down
Day breaks--and where are we?
