respondent of the Liverpool Courier says :
8 Assurance is given me to-day that the
statement of the intention of the Baroness
Burdett-COutts to devote $500, 600 to the
amelioration of the distress in Ireland is
true. Contradictions of this statement
have been made in most of the
London daily papers, but the fact is in
controvertibie. The money will not be
given in aims, but will be invested in the
purchase Of land in the district of Come

to small tenants at long leases and mod

Dampness and Diphtheria.

The opinion that close connection
exists between diphtheria and damp
ness of site, is confirmed in some En-
glish reports recorded by DR.. Wood
fOrde. In an outbreak of diphtheria at
Purley in 1873, the cottage in which
the earliest cases occurred was much
shut in by trees, and, although it was
very clean, it was damp and INSULT
GENTLY ventilated, especially in the
sleeping-roOms, it was exposed to the
emanations of the cess-pit, and the wa
ter was not pure. At Ramsbury, where
diphtheria was unusually fatal in 1877
and 1878, the ordinary sanitary defects
were not much worse than IN other viii
lagos, but the sites of many of the cot
tages were almost level with the river,
and damp, with subsoil water very
near the surface. At Clifton Hampden,
where diphtheria had occurred for sew
eral years IN suCcossivu, tho ordinary
defects of porous cess-pits and polluted
water were noted, though not to SO
great an extent as in other places where
there had been no diphtheria, but the
village also appeared damp, and stag
nation of air was evidently occasioned
by the number of trees adjoining the
cottages. Sanitary improvements were
instituted, the trees were thinned out,
and a gale took away some that had
been left, and the disease has not an
peared in the place since.-TPopular

The Vice-President.

Chester A. Arthur, the republican
Vice-Presidential candidate, is the son
of Rev. VIM. D. Arthur, D. D., who
was born in the county of Antrim, Ire
land, in the year 1896, and was gradu-
ated from the college at Belfast, at the
early age of Is. Not long after he de-
termined to make his home in the Unit
ed States, and sailing from Liverpool
reached New York, and went directly
thence to Bennington in this state,
where he became principal of the Ben
nington Academy. The study of the
law commenced at this period, was sub
sequently continued by him in the Of
flee of Gov. Van Ness. But he eventu-
ally turned his attention to theology,
and in due course of time became a
minister of the Baptist church at Ben
nington, and subsequently was settled
at Hinesburg, Fairfield, Milton and Will
llston in this state. 1t was at Fairfield
that Gen. Arthur was born, in 1881.
He received his education at Union
College, Schenectady, where he excell-
ed in all branches of study. After his
graduation from the university he en-
tered the Albany Law School. Mr.. Ar
thur commenced his business life by
becoming associated with Mr.. E. d.

Mammals Beautiful Parlor.

Mamma, Kitty go in the parlo' lit
tie while; Kitty so tired"
Mrs. Bowman had been very much alb
sOrbed in the planning of new polo
naise, all the morning, and the little
four year old Kitty had seemed unusual
ly annoying to her, and hard to please
Irritated by the constant prattle of the
child, she now answered sharply, "No
you can't go in the parlor at all, parlors
are not made for children to tear round
imp
"Pease, Mamma, dest one little min
nte, Kitty, won't tear muffin, Kitty is
SO tired and wants to see the bOotiful
angels, with wings in Mammals nice
parlo'. Kitty'll lie right on the sofa,
and never do muffin, only look at the
boOtiful, white angels"
For answer, the harsh, unmotherly
hands grasped the slender, white shout
ders, and with rude shake, seated
the frightened little one, with deal of
unnecessary physical force, in a chair
at the other side of the room.
"Now sit there until / tell you to get

fOrting mOther-arm to rest upon, sank
down instead upon the broad arm of
the great cushioned chair, while smeth-
ering sobs shook the baby frame.

Not With Them.
BY ABBIE MILLS.

Thomas was not with the other dis
ciples when the risen Saviour came to
them, and though they told him of the
Oy-bringing visit, yet what a week of
doubt he had before he was afforded
the privilege of beholding Jesus and
putting his finger in the print of the
nails Why he was not with the 9TH
ers at the time of worship can only be
a matter of speculation, but many have
dared to follow his example in this re-
spect, and, as consequence, sceptical
doubts have darkened a multitude of
souls. Some of these modern disciples
of the Thomas class may say, "When ]
go to church do not find Jesus there"
And yet ''the Lord is in His holy tenn
pie" The golden candle-stick may be
covered with the dust of wOrldliness,
and the light be Obscured by formality,
but it has not yet been removed, and
the command, "Not forsaking the as
sembling of yourselves together, as the
manner of some is" applies to the busy
multitudes of earth in these days.
This habit of remaining away from
church service is easily formed, but
many of the excuses that seem valid
are not such as those making them
would utter if they realized that they
were making them to God and not to
their fellow-men.
In the morning, instead of yet little
sleep, and prolonged folding of the
hands to sleep, because the factory bell
is silent and the shop closed, it would
be as it is when an eagerly sought holt
day dawns. All is glad promptness, in
anticipation of pleasure at hand. So
the one who can truly say, Chow amia-
BILE are Thy Tabernacles, o Lord of
hostsl" will covet each sacred hour for
nobler purposes than mere physical
idleness or disqualification.
81 cannot get my work done and my
self ready for the morning SERVICE" we
heard one plead, and yet on any other
time the necessary Homework was out
of the way long before half-past ten.
The morning hours having thus slipped
away with self in the foreground and
God dishonored, the afternoon is easily
given to dress, riding, or writing letters,
but semi-religious, if at all tinctured
with piety. As the evening comes on,
the same spirit of drifting lazily with
the current may bear them to church,
but what wonder if, under the circum-
stances, they do: not find Jesus, or if
they do hear his voice, it is in tones of
rebuke sharper than those that Thomas
heard7
There may be thrift, order, punctual-
ity, and much more that is commenda-
BILE, without that state of heart that
will recognize Jesus when lie comes,
and cause the adoring exclamation,
"My Lord and my God!n But these
habits under the control of grace are a
help, and the want of them, even where
there is much devotion, is hindrance.
There are often valid excuses for alb
sence from the place of worship, but
even the world about us knows wheth-
ell they are real, or assumed from luke
warmness of spirit.-Christian at Work
