Temperance.
TEMPERANCE WORK IN THE
CHURCH.

If Christ church is unequal to the
task of graphing with the popular
sins, then let the church retire from
the field, and confess her failure.
But the church Is equal to the task,
if she will but carry out the princi-
pies of her divine Leader, and do all
the work He has committed to her.
This work of saving men and wom-
en- from drunkenness belongs to the
followers of Christ. They have no
more business to leave it entirely to
outside organizations, than they have
to leave the care of all Gods poor
to police officers and keepers of aims
houses.
Every Christian church ought to
have a temperance acheel in its ma
chinery as much as Sunday school
wheel. Every minister ought to
preach and to practice abstinence.
If alcoholic drinks poison the body
and endanger the soul, then the phys
ical and spiritual effects Of strong
drink ought to be carefully explained
from the pulpit. Teachers ought to
do this, too, in the Sunday school.
The temperance pledge might be
wisely used in every class where the
children are old enough to under
stand its force and binding conse-
quences. [ have always thanked
God that signed total abstinence
pledge in childhood. It kept. me
from tampering with the shot toddy"
in college, and from taking '.just q
little" when I went to a wedding or
dinner party.
A young man-the son of a godly
mother, now dead-came reeling into
my house, and wanted me to ssdo
suthin' for him." Now, it was just
as much my province to take hold of
that man as if he had come an anx-
ious inquirer seeking the way to Je-
sus. And if it was my duty as a
Christian minister to labor to save
that youth from drunkenness, it is
equally my duty to endeavor, by
plain preaching and by practice, to
keep young men from becoming
drunkards.
1t is prodigiously hard work to save
an inebriate. But Christian effort
relying on divine help, will save
many who will yet strike harps OF
glory.
A temperance association should
be organized in every church. Sucl
a society would be rich spiritual
blessing. Their labors might be tn,
seed-corn of precious revivals. Blu
no pastor should delegate the solemn
vital work of preaching Temperance
to others who should be invited from
abroad. Let him take the lead! Ev
cry Christian pulpit should be bat
terry against drinking, drunkenness

DURABLE WHITEWASH.

Every farmer has more or less out
buildings and fences that are built
of rough boards, which he does not
feel he can afford to paint with lead
and oil, that could be covered very
cheap with whitewash, and thus
greatly improved in appearance, and,
what to most farmers is important,
made to last twice as long as if left
exposed to the ravages of the wealth
er. The great drawback in common
whitewash is the lack of durability,
it being necessary to renew it every
year; but an improved preparation
may be made, at a very low cost,
that when properly put on will last
some years and look very well. 1t
is made as follows: For gallons,
slack 6 quarts good lime in hot
water, covering it up while in the
process of Stacking to keep in the
steam; when Stacked, strain through
a coarse cloth add l quart of salt,
prepared by boiling in water until
dissolved and the impurities have
been skinned off also add 1 pound
of alum, q pound of copperas, 81
pound of potash 4 quarts of very
fine sand, and coloring to suit the
fancy. This preparation should be
put on hot: if properly done, it
makes a durable paint. To make a
brilliant white: To the amount of
lime above mentioned, add II pound
of burnt alum, pound refined sugar,
pints rice flour, made into thin
paste, and pound dissolved glue.
This, like the other, should be ap-
piled hot. If the lime be good, it
will make very pure white that will
last some years

the last meeting Of the Genesee
Farmers Club all favored killing and
deprecated the Injurious effects of
too close and deep tillage with cul-
tivator in disturbing the lateral root
lets, retarding growth and diminish
ing yield of crop.
Ting labor of digging is greatly
diminished and the work facilitated
with most growers by using some
one of the many implements designed
for the purpose that have made their
appearance within few years past,
and it has been satisfactorily demon
strated that where extensively grown,
this method is far in advance of the
old custom of hand labor, though
lifting with the long-handled five
tined fork is still the favorite method
of many. In the former case it
would be well, after picking off the
tubers, to scarify the soil with a
spring-tooth harrow, when any re-
naming potatoes will be brought to
the surface. 1t is important that
harvesting begin soon as the tubers
are ripe enough to prevent ruffiing
the surface coating, and the potato
retains its smooth and perfect APP
pearance. If the weather be dry
and hot, as, during the past season,
the crop, unless intended for the
early or fall market, can be safely
stored in cellar or left in long pits,
first covering well with straw and
lightly with earth, and by subsequent
ly adding a similar covering they
can be safely carried through the
coolest winter.-Irving D. Cook,

CHRISTIANITY NOT DE-
Ginning.

There may seem to some to be a
steady growth of opposition to re-
.vealed truth, and yet there is not.
Men are but coming out upon the
side to which they belong. This is
by no means taking from the light of
Christianity and making it less, but
an elimination of that which does
not belong to it, and the loss of which
will make its bright shining only so
much the brighter and clearer Be-
cause Swing, and Smith, and Coll
yer have taken stand against ortho-
doXy, caunot be evidence of the decline
of the latter, but it is only removal
of Instructions that hide the light of
Christianity, and we have enough
confidence in God to believe that
this eliminating process will go on
until the dross is finally all separated
from the gold. The very doctrinal
looseness of such men as those men,
toned above goes far to establish
more firmly the light of religion, in
that it shows the weakness of man.
and the folly of breaking loose from
the shores of revelation. Mr.. Beecher
may be great orator, but when be
dies his congregation will be scatter
ed to the winds. Mr.. Swing. of Chi.
cage, has not even a church to preacr
in, and it is doubtful whether he vii
ever have. Collyer, seeing that he
was losing ground in Chicago, betooE
himself to New York, and finds tina
even there he is not building up. 1
is so everywhere. The great con
gregations of men of this stamp hav,
all been broken up and are goins
fast, while the Christian churches o
the world are as shining lights, grow
ing stronger every day.-Christia,

WHAT Is WANTED.

The Holy Spirit is able to make
the Word as successful now as in the
days of the apostles. He can bring
in by hundreds and thousands as
we'll as ones or twos. The reason
why we are not more prosperous is
that we have not the Holy Spirit with
us in might and power, as in early
times. If we had the Spirit sealing
our ministry with power, it would
signify very little about our talent.
Men might be poor and ungrammat-
ical there might be none of the
polished periods of Hall OF glorious
thunders Of Chalmers; but if the
might of the Spirit attended them,
the humblest evangelist would be
more successful than the most elo-
quent of preachers. 1t is extraord-
mary grace, not talent, that wins the
day. 1t is is extraordinary spiritual
power, not extraordinary mental pow
er, that we need. Mental power
may fill chapel, but spiritual power
fills the church. Mental power may
gather congregation; spiritual pow
er will save souls. We want spirit
ual power. Oh! we know some
before whom we shrink into nothing
as to talent, but have no spiritual
power; but when they speak, they
have not the Holy Spirit with them ;
but we know others, supplemented,
worthy men, who speak their country
dialect, and who stand up to preach
in their country place, and the Spirit
of God clothes every word with pow
er. Hearts are broken, souls are
saved, and sinners are horn again.
o Spirit of the living God we want
thee. Thou art the life, the soul.
the source of thy peoples success.
Without thee they can do nothing.
with thee they can do everything

If there was no other reason in the
world why man should quit his
drinking habits, he should do it to
take from his friends the burden of
sorrow and the sting of felt disgrace
that is weighing them down with an
almost overwhelming burden. To
him who drinks there may be no fear
of evil consequences, but to his
friends there is always great anxiety
lest a beloved friend may find a
drunkard's grave.

CAN ABUNDANT ENTRANCE.' .

Probably every reader of this pa
per has heard of the Fulton street
prayer meeting and knows something
of its history.
Near the very heart of the business
portion of the great city of New
York, every day at noon Christian
men. and a few women too, step
aside from the busy whirl and excite
ment of office, and store, and bank,
and street into the place of this meet
ing, which for twenty-five years and
more has been held with unremitting
regularity.
Requests for prayer from places
distant far and near are presented
and read. Short addresses are
made. Songs, spirited and familiar,
are sung. And prayers fervent and
to the point Tin most casey are Of
fered up. The influence of this
& meeting reaches worldwide.
4 To-day being the first day of the
week of prayer the subject of praise
and thanksgiving was placed upper
tlmost. Yet request for blessings,
both spiritual and temporal, were nu-
merous.
The leader, evidently a pastor,
spoke of a church upon whose roll of
members, numbering some thousands,
were at least a hundred wives who
had unconverted husbands. And
this is not an uncommon proportion.
Women flock to our churches, an6
read the bible, and praise, and pray
Their lives may be somewhat more
sheltered from evil than those OF
most men. Their temptations, I'm.
doubtedly, are not so great. But
I could not help thinking if all this
preponderance of women were ear

son and out of season, faithful tG
the trust committed to their care anC
earnestly seeking an abundant en-
trance, that someway their prayers
and efforts ought to bring in rich re

IS 1T RIGHT

Is it right for men who profess and
call themselves Christians to pray
LEAD US not into temptation" and
then heedlessly expose themselves to
the influence of drinks which have
tempted and ruined thousands?
Is it right for men to ask God to
''Give us this day our daily Bread"
and then support system which Ii
censes men to destroy the good grain
by converting it into body and soul
destroying drink?
Is it right to build churches, chap
els and schools to help to save the
people, and at the same time license
men and women to open shops in
which liquors are sold which will de-
stroy the people?
Is it right to license man to sell
drink which will make people drunk,
and then fine men and women for
getting drunk?
Is it right to license men to make
paupers and criminals, and tax sober
and yirtuous people to pay rates to
keep them?
Is it right to derive revenue out
| of a system which demOralizes and
degrades the people?
Is it right for people to wish the
temperance cause success, and the
same time to continue to drink and
support the liquor traffic?
Is it right for any man or woman
who wishes well to their country to
stand aloof from the only certain
cure for our national intemperance.
Is it right for Sunday school
teacher to teach scholars to beware
Of the dangers of the public house
with breath smelling strong of drink
which comes from such places?
Is it right for minister of religion
to preach against drunkenness, while
he continues to use the drink whlcf
alone produces it?
Is it right to admit into Christian
churches, as members. liquor-seller:
or persons in any way interested il
the traffic, who, by their business
are constantly hindering the spreat
of the gospel, and leading professor
of religion astray?
Is it right to expect God to he'll
Christians efforts when these effort
are tainted with the money whicl
comes from the ruin of souls?
Is it right to do wrong to produc
right?
Is it right to ask these questions
and if so, what answer can each read
er give to them?
