The Return Tide of Faith.

During tho last twenty years, how
ever, very decided change has come
over the religious convictions of the
German people. We can plainly see
the progress of a reaction toward belief
from this reaction toward unbelief. The
reaction from an extreme conservatism,
not wholly unmingled with supersti-
ton, drove the nation to infidelity; and
the reaction from that infidelity is
gradually leading them back to a
Christian faith corroborated by scien.
tific investigation. Inidelity, as dom
mating order of thought, has lost its
crown and its throne, and rational OBJ
servation, freely conceding the super
natural as component part of Chris
tianity .lise gradually taking possession oil
the national mind and heart. Not only
are Strauss and Bauer dead, but their
influence, if not quite dead, is so weak
that it need awaken no alarm.
Parker is also dead, and he left so lit.
tie behind him in the way of vital
doubt, that New England is swinging
back to the faith of the fathers. The
authority of all these men is a thing OF
the past, and their arguments against
the supernatural have been buried I'M.
der mass Of still stronger arguments
for it.
In proof of this are innumerable
facts; but we have room for only one;
Twenty years ago the theological de-
psrtment of those German universities
in which rationalism was taught were
crowded with students, while the few
conservative universities had little
more than an array of empty seats.
Such, however, is the change effected
in public opinion during the last twenty
years, that to-day the successors of the
great teachers of doubt find it difficult
to gather an audience to lecture to,
while the more conservative professors
deliver their lectures to scores instead
of tens. The catalogues:of the renowned
seats of learning show how surely Ger
many is finding her way back to be-
lief in revelation. The tide of infidel-
ity has had its period of flood, years
ago reached it's high-water mark, and is
now, at the very least, at the half ebb.
On the other hand, the tide OF faith.
which reached its low-water mark with
the last generation, is on the food, and
is likely to reach higher point than
ever before. 1t is q great satisfaction
to know that rational conservatism
which accepts the great dogmas that
have been tested by centuries OF expe'
rience, includes not alone that class
which is governed by tickle emotion,
but the large body of the worlds best
and profoundest thinkers, who have
dug through the stratum of doubt, and
are building on the solid foundations
of faith.-New York Herald.

The Gentle Face of War.

| During our civil war, the depot of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in
Philadelphia was the frequent stopping
place for few moments of regime ts
going South, and of large bodies OF
wounded men on their way home.
A good woman who lived near, when
ever she heard of such an arrival, was
in the habit of making pot of coffee,
and taking it to the tired and wounded
men. Some of her neighbors Joined
her in this good work.
After few weeks, other persons,
finding how grateful this simple refresh
ment was to the soldiers, asked leave
to contribute to it. Then mechanic
who owned an enormous copper-shop
near the depot offered it for their use.
The kindly work grew. Money came
in. Willing hands were ready. In the
vacant shop great tables always stood
laden with plates, cups, etc.; stoves
with fires always burning were in the
adjoining kitchen, and great stores OF
cold meats and bread were kept at hand
for immediate use.
A cannon was fred ten minutes before
a regiment arrived, and when the cars
full of the wounded and sick rolled
into the station, not only a comfortable
meal awaited them, but there was O
temporary hospital ready. and doctors,
and tender motherly women to DIRE So
their wounds.
"Nobody asked me-" said South
ern soldier, If I was rebel. Nobody
seemed to care for anything but that
was suffering. I had lost my arm, and
I was on my way to prison. But when
I said goodbye to these women, I al
most forgave the North"
The death of one of these good doc
tors week or two ago has recalled
these facts. He had charge of several
large hospitals in which were men from
both armies. On every Sunday, differ
emit clergymen Of the city came to
preach, some of whom were thought
less enough to take advantage of that
occasion to try and convert the rebels to
patriotism. The doctor interfered.
"This is not the place for politics, "
he said. "These wounded and dying
men need Christ and Him crucified
now. This, and nothing else, gentle
men,"
On one Sunday the venerable Bishop
Potter, who was very much beloved by
the soldiers and prisoners, preached u
sermon which drew tears from many of
these rough men. One who, it is stated
was an old man Of great learning, had
become an intidel, and had drawn many
others into skepticism. He heard, and
with Gods help was brought to see the
truth. A few days later, knowing that
he had but few days to live, he sent
for the bishop and told him what he
owed to him in the sermon he had
heard. Soon after he folded his hands,
and repeated in clear but feeble voice
hymn which his mother had taught
him fifty years before:
"Not in my innocence trust,
/ bow before Thee in the dust.
Through my Savior's blood alone
Hook for mercy at Thy throne"
He died that night.-Kouth's COM
panion.

How to be Handsome.

To be beautiful in person we must
not only conform to the laws of physi-
Cal health, and by gymnastic arts and
artificial appliances develop the ele-
ments of physical being in symmetry
and completeness, but we must do more
we must cultivate the mind and de-
velop the affections to the highest pos
sible degree.
To be beautiful We must feed the
spark of intellectual fire by reading and
meditation until it burns in steady
flame, irradiating the face by its bril-
liancy, and suffusing the countenance
with calm and steady light; also. we
must fill the brain with sublime
thoughts, and live surrounded, as it
were, by an atmosphere of ideas.
To be beautiful we must put great
organizing and enrolling purpose into
the will, and concentrate our thoughts
and affections upon the accomplish
ment of it, until enthusiasm wells up
in the heart, sutfusing the countenance
and rebuilding the body on its own d.
vine plan.
10 be beautiful we must cherish
every kind impulse and generous dis
position, making love the ruling affee-
ton of the heart; the ordering princi-
pie and inspiring motive of life; the
more kindness, the more beauty, the
more love the more loneliness.
And this is the beauty that is abiding.
Mere physical good looks fade with the
years, bleach out with sickness, and
yield to the slow decay of mortality.
But the beauty that has its origin in
kind dispositions and noble purposes
and great thoughts out-lasts youth and
maturity, increases with years, and,
like the lucious peach which comes to
us in autumn ripeness, covered with
tine delicate flush Of purple and crimson,
is never so beautiful as when waiting
to be plucked by the gatherer's hand,
silently witnessing to the full the rich
PROJECTIONS time works out.

How the Savages Live.

The Utes live principally on bread
and meat. When they can't get bread
they live on meat, and when they can't
get meat they live on bread. When
they have great quantity of provisions
on hand they eat it all up before get
ting any more. The same is true when
they have small quantity on hand.
They are dirty. They are even very
dirty. Their meat is generally per-
mitted to lie about on the ground or
any place. Each Indian family posses
SEES any number of dogs from eight to
fifteen; and these animals help them
selves to the meat. After they have
satisfied themselves, and when tho In
dams become hungry, they cut off this
same piece on which the dogs feed.
They generally boil their meat, but
sometimes they broil it. They put it
into water and let it remain only few
minutes, just long enough to heat,
when they take it out and begin to eat.
They use the same water and the same
pail for boiling over and over again un-
til the water becomes perfect slime of
&th. One pot generally does service
Nbr the entire family. This particular
pot Is lrylpg-p8n. when the Utes
get out OF bed they wash their faces
and bathe the baby in it, after which
they bake the bread and boil the meat.
Then they eat out of the vessel, and
then the dogs lick up the leavings.
They clothe themselves with skins of
animals or with blankets. They gen.
orally tak3 q blanket or skin and cut
hole in the middle of it and throw it
over their heads, cutting arm-holes and
fastening the garment at the waist with
wide belt, while they close up the
neck with buckskin string. When
the garment wears out they cut the
string and let it drop, but not before.
Sometimes the Indians will wear as
many as five Of these garments at a
time, always keeping the cleanest one
on the outside.
