1t is possible to know great deal
about Jesus Christ, and yet not to know
him as our Saviour. This secondhand,
and as It were, arm's-length knowledge,
will not save us. You must come closer
and take hold on him by living and
appropriating faith.

Praise Of Women.

Says Jared Sparks: II have observed
among all nations that the women orha-
ment themselves more than the mem
that wherever found they are the same
civil, kind, obliging, humane, tender
beings; that they are ever inclined TO be
gay and cheerful, timorous and modest
They do not hesitate, like men, TO per-
form a hospitable or generous action;
not naughty nor arrogant, not super
cilious, but full of courtesy and fond Of
society; industrious. economical, in.
genuOus, more liable in general TO ere
than man, and performing more good
actions than he. l never addressed
myself in the language Of deoency and
friendship 10 a woman, whether civil;
lied or savage, without receiving de-
cent and friendly answer. With man
II has often been otherwise. In wan
dering over the barren plains Of inhos-
pitable Denmark, through honest
Sweden, frozen Lapland, rude aud
churlish Finland, unprincipled Russia
and the widespread regions OF the
wandering Tartar, il hungry, dry, cold
or sick, woman has ever been friendly
TO me, uniformly so; and 10 add TO this
virtue, so worthy Of the appellation Of
benevolence, these actions have been
performed In so free and so kind a
manner that, II was dry, drank the
sweet draught, and II hungry, ate the
coarse morsel, with q double relish"

Parasites in Food and Drink.

NJ. Milne-Edwards has recently eX-
pressed some interesting views sug-
gested by the discussions concerning
trichina, respecting the hygienic ques-
lions which are connected with the es-
tablishment of colonies OF intestinal
worms, or microbes, within human
bodies. He believes that certain re-
ligious precepts and certain established
nsages, among people whose civilization
Is very ancient, are based upon ac-
quaintance with the Inconvenience
that may result from the alimentary use
of particular meats or waters. he thus
doduces, from the aptitude OF the hog
10 transmit his parasites 10 man, the
reason for the prohibition OF pork among
the Israelites and Mohammedans, and
for the Biblical distinction between pure
and impure animals. He also attributes
TO the very ancient recognition OF anal
ogous facts the general use OF hot
drinks, like tea In China and other
countries Of the extreme East, where
the natural waters are often charged
with noxiors animalcules or polluted
by unclean animals. AS bearing on this
point, he cites the ravages caused In
Cochin-China by a microscopic eel
which produces persistent endemic
dlarrhna. These animals have facul
ty of MULTIPLICATION In tho human inees
tine, that Is illustrated by the fact thai
a single patient is said 10 have evacuated
more than hundred thousand Of them
within twenty-four hoursl The simplest
prudence should suggest the expediency
of boiling the drinking-water wherever
they abound. RepuIdr Science Aoattly'
