tainment in legerdemaln Oh Tuesday
night to Il crowded house. lie drew Il
crowd by advertising IN exposure of
Spiritualism. lie showed how fraudu-
lent mediums perform their tricks and
did it cleverly. But just us we said
last week that lie would not, so he did
not attempt to show how genuine man.
ifestations are produced. The table
manifestation was genuine, and the
Professor put that aside by saying it
was electricity. The Professor knows
better than that, however. He is too
shrewd to admit that spirits do the
work. lie knows how to catch the
gudgeons. The weakest of all dupes is
the one who thinks there is 10 genuine
dollar because some counterfeiter has
produced Il bogus one.

for business of that kind.

we were afraid to face the music.

diences even in Worthington and

any need Of it. If there is anything
in the world that we are not afraid of,
it is a Worthington blackguard.

selves for their important work, as we'll as to contribute to their owD happiness, the speaker advised every young lady to culti- vate the mind, the a.tections and the heart There is nothing inconslstant with your sphere and work, and the highest intellect ual culture. Your school days are to be improved if they are not ended. Cultivate love for books. do not tell you to dis card all fiction if did, I should have to tell you to discard much of our Sabbath school literature. Discard such reading as 'Dlme Novels" winch only degrade, bu, such works as those of E. P. Roe are pure and eleVating, assumed characters it is true, put true pictures of the struggles and tri umphs of human life. No one can con demn them. But this should not be your only call of reading. Read something sol i'd. something that will require thought to digest. ln your reading don't forget lh. Bible, make it your daily companion. Cul tivate the affections. By thls we mean loveliness of spirit. This Is woman's bes, sceptre. Ii you lack this, that which will rost surely melt aud move aud hold hearts, IS wanting. Finally, cultivate the heart as your spiritual nature. This includes all we have said about the affections, but il means much more. Woman's obligations to Christianity are great. It is our Christian civilization that has made her what she is the companlon, the partner, the tQaai oI man. No matter what other adornments you may possess, you never assume the beauty ot perfect woman until you alc clothed in the heaven-given graces of pure Christianity. This too will sustain you ip the storms and trials that must come to you in life. You will nut only be u blessing to others, but will be blessed yourself, and lying st last, your name will not only bt cherished by those upon whom you have left your impress, but you will be saved for.
