WORRY.

Our modern life is full of worry-I
don't know but that of the ancients mad
its plaques, but ours is worry, worry all
the time. Even people away from the
centre Of our large cities with their noise
and hubbub-those away back on the
farms, that business men envy so much
even these feel the worry Of the times. A
man can't live, as his fathers did-he must
care more for appearances, he feels more
the pressure Of competition. His life is a
care-a struggle, and the odds seem often
quite against him.
Now this burden must be lifted-it
will not do to carry it like a knapsack on
our backs. We must get away from it.
And we must take life in more orderly
and quiet manner. We must cure our
selves Of this feverishness, and work with
self-possession and plodding patience.
Undue anxiety spoils more than it makes.
And the wish of our young men and wo-
men for fine clothes and other articles
spoils them for the good of life. Not but
what / love these, but hold that mind
and manners are above all outward
adornment-and we are worried about
the outside Of the cup and platter, and
are initiating some not overwise people Of
old who did this very thing. know the
value of tidy homeland l love to see
it made made neat and comfortable-but
the point is, we must not overurge these
things-wc must be willing to work and
wait for them. We can't get rich in a
few years-not in farming and not in
business, and SO we must change our pat
tern to the length Of our cloth.
am sure worry kills more than work.
"A wheel Will run all right TIL the axle
dries, and then you know what mischief
there is. Well worry plays the same
game on us-the wheel wont turn round,
we are stopped on the road. Sickness
overtakes US or something, and we are
put back years-and all through worry.
1t is said that Goodness with content
is great gain" And it is. Goodness
is q recognition of the Suprem Being
that placed US here-and it brings hu-
mility and service, and thankfulness and
content, and enables us to lead quiet
and sober life, to our advantage and his
praise. WI.

THE CERTAINTIES OF SCIENCE.

Mr.. Editor: Please insert in your
excellent paper the following extract
from an article, by DR.. Sherman Of Bos.
ton, and oblige Yours. y
Fryeburg, May, l6.
What glorious thing this is "exact
Science" How fortunate that it feels
authorized to formulate and announce
its conclusions in so positive and conf
dent manner When, it would be in
teres,ing to know, will its ever-recurring
mistakes, self contradictions, and cor
responding notifications of opinion be-
get in its bearing, little modesty-sug-
gest the propriety of tempering its con.
ceit, its arrogant, dogmatic tone, with
little wholesome humility:
A contemporary states that Professor
Thompson, the acknowledged master of
applied mathematics in Great Britain,
startled the geologlists few years ago
by affirming that the latter must greatly
restrict the enormously long terms in
geology, announcing his opinions for his
opinion. Professor Huxley and some Of
his associates protested that the mathe =
matician's conclusions could not be &C.
cepted as certain. More recently,
however, they have admitted their force !;
and the claims of untold ages for the for
mutation of single strata have been mod.
flied or abandoned.
The mathematicians meanwhile are
pushing their victories still farther, and
now assert that the so-called uniformita-
rian theory, which the great Lyell spent
his whole life in demonstrating, must be
utterly given up.
We hear great deal in these days,
on the part of certain class, about GER
tain alleged conflicts between Science
and Revelation. However the case may
stand relative to other issues, nothing
can be more manifest than that touching
the matter of the tremendous and appall-
ing consequences Of disobedience. Science
and Revelation are completely agreed.
Both conspire, in the most impressive
terms, to teach that "the way of the
transgressor is hard" that "the wages Of
sin are DEATH" There is no hesitation,
no suffering or stammering in the syl.
tables of either of these mentors concern.
! ing this matter. Stern and memorable

THE BOOK OF ENOCH.

OF all apocraphal books, none have
the interest or Importance Of the Book Of
Enoch. In Jude, verses ii and Is there
is quotation of a prophecy by Enoch of
the coming of the Lord with ten thous-
and of his saints to take vengeance on
the ungodly. The early church fathers
seem to have been familiar with the Book
of Enoch, as it is noticed by Justin Mar
tyr, Origen, Augustine and several others.
From the dark ages until the close Of the
last century it was a lost book and many
were the speculations as to its contents
and value. James Bruce the English
traveller discovered three copies Of the
work in Abyssinia, and brought them to
Europe in 1873. But little attention
was given to these manuscripts until
1900 when some extracts were published.
Not until nearly half a century after the
discovery by Bruce was there complete
translation into English. This was done
by Bishop Lawrence in 1921 book
long since out of print. Prof. Schoode
of Columbus University has conferred
great favor on all biblical scholars and
antiquarians by giving US new and i'm
proved traslation, accompanied by an
elaborate introduction and copious notes
which together make up three fifths Of
the book as published by warren Il Dra-
per, Andover, Mass. Price Sl.75 DR..
Ezra Abbott pronounces this "a work Of
great value as an original and scholarly
contribution to the illustration Of this
most interesting and important Of all the
books of its class"
The Book of Enoch is doubtless the
work of several authors and was probably
produced at about the beginning Of the
Christian era. 1t is Of pronounced Jew
ish origin. 1t is written in imitation of
the prophesy Of Daniel, and is chiefly
valuable as revealing the moral, religious
and social a;mospher Of the period Of our
Sayiours earthly life-the atmosphere
which he breathed, for it contains the
heart ut.erances OF the faithful Israelite
1t is an open question among bible critics
whether Jude quoted from this book or
made use Of a traditional saying of Enoch
which the author Of the Book of Enoch
also inserted, but as the book was then
doubtless well known it is most reasona-
bic to suppose that he quotes from it.
Some have rejected the epi.tle Of Jude
because OF the quotations from an I'M
canoncal book but this need not sta!tle
US since Paul was not afraid to quote
heather poets. The coming Of the Lord,
the certainty of punishment for the wick
ed and reward for the righteous are the
themts Of this old book which few OF
this generation have had the pleasure Of
looking into but who may all now be
gratifed by perusal.

Miss CAREY.-A few months ago an
enterprising Chicago paper published an
account of Miss Cav's alleged betrothal
to Mr.. Lorillard, the millionaire tobacco
manufacturer of New Y ork, which ac-
count gave very minute details Of Miss
Cary's family relations. The rumor or
iginated through q reporter overhearing
Miss Cary jokingly tell Mrs. Osgood,
the soprano soloist, some chatty gossip,
in which the name of Mr.. Lorillard was
mentioned. Miss Cary has never met,
nor even seen, Mr.. Lorillard. 1t is true,
however, that Miss Cary is engaged to
be married, and the fair contralto, who
has grown so close to the hearts of the
American people, is now wearing the be-
trothal ring, which will soon be ex.
changed for the wedding emblem. 1t is
definitely known that the lucky gentle
man is a Mr.. Raymond, a New York
broker, and gentleman of wealth and
refinement, and the highest social stand
ing. 1t cannot be ascertained just when
the marriage is to occur, but all indica-
tons point to its consumation at time
not further distant than the coming sum-
mer or fall. 1t is also reported by those
who are in position to know, that Mr..
Raymond is exceedingly, and quite pro-
perly, jealous of the lavish affection of
the public for Miss Cary, and it is through
his most earnest entreaties that she has
decided TO permanently abandon the ly-
ric stage during the present season.

is the voice of each to the effect that
Whatsoever q man soweth that shall he
also reap" that while if she ows to the
Spirit, he shall of the Spirit reap life
everlasting if, on the other hand, he
SOW to the flesh, to appetite, to lust, then
of the flesh shall he, sooner or later, reap
undiluted corruption.
Let those wiseacres who are so intent
upon preaching Science falsely so call
ed to the discredit of Revelation relative
to this matter Of sin and its reward only
have the grace to stick honestly to their
text, and from its stony lips they shall
derive quite all the condemnation they will
know what to do with.

THE Fox KILLS THE DoG.-John
Mitchell, of fremont, lost large New
foundland dog last winter in nov e
manner. The dog was on the track of
the fox, and the fox seeing no other es-
cape, took to the water. The dog, being
an expert swimmer, also took the water,
and was not long in overhauling the fox,
and seized him by the tail. The fox in
his cunning, instantly turned, set his
teeth in the dogs nose, and placing his
fore feet on his head, held him under
water until he was drowned. Mr.. Rey-
nard soon paid the penalty of his crime,
for on his nearing the shore, the sure aim
of Mr.. Mitchell "fixed him."

People are very fond Of comparing
some old and healthy-lookins drinker
with some delicate and sickly abs.ainer,
to show that drinking is not injurious.
They might as we'll point to an old SOL
der without wound, as a proof that
war is not dangerous The only way to
find out the truth would be to compare
the number of deaths in a regiment dur
ing campaign, with the number of deaths
among the same number of soldiers dur
iss peace. So we must compare large
number of drinkers with large number
of abstainers when we dc that, we find
that in every 900 larger proportion
of drinkers die than abstainers. In the
United Kingdom Temperance and Gener-
al Provident Institution, moderate drink
ers and total abstainers have insured
their lives. In fourteen years-from 1866
to 1879, inclusive-3, $50 of the moder-
ate drinkers were expected to die, and
3,444 actually did so /; while of the total
abstainers 1902 deaths were expected,
and only 1888 really occurred.

Nor LrrERAruRE.-walt whitman's

Nor LITERATURE.-Walt Whitman's
memorandum in the North american Re-
rieto, it appears, was suggested by the
Attorney General of Massachusetts, who
has notified Messrs. J. R. Osgood & Co.,
Whitman's publishers, that they are La
BILE under the statute to prevent the cir
culation of indecent literature. The pub
fishers might have defended, perhaps, on
the ground that Walt Whitman's "yawps'
are not literature, but they chose not to
become involved in a lawsuit and have
