CHANGES.

The last century has been prolific of
changes. The face of the American conti-
nent has been so changed that it's original fea-
lures are almost wholly effaced, In agricul
ture, the country has made great changes
Socially, the inhabitants the country have
undergone great changes. The inhabitants
of North America certainly enjoy more
comforts and have to struggle with fewer
disadvantages to-day than they had one
hundred years ago. The greatest change
which has taken place in America during
the last century is in the church. Christi
anity has spread in a most wonderful man.
ner. The growth Of the church, in some
respects, has been like Il tree planted by
rivers of water.
There are many of the changes which
have taken place in the external aspect of the
church which are exceedingly gratifying.
There are, on the other other hand, some
changes which do not indicate state of
great prosperity in the Church. Some
phases of piety are fast disappearing from
our country. Parents are certainly not as
particular now as they once. were to in
struct their children in the primary princi-
pies of the Christian religion. The Bible
has been thrust out of our common schools
and largely out Of the family.
If these things are true, and we think they
are, although we would hope they are 9th
erwise, they omen no good. Any individ-
ual who will cast his eyes abroad over our
country, will discover that in every section
there is united effort to secularize the
Church. This evil begins in the pulpit and
descends to the pew. Ministers of the gos-
pei preach that gospel SO as to make them
selves popular. The great duty of instruct
ing the people in the plan Of salvation, and
the way of recovery through Jesus Christ
is, in all our pulpits, largely neglected: The
result is that many congregations in our
country know comparatively little about
Jesus.
Another unfavorable sign is the almost
universal desecration of the Lords day.
The Sabbath, as day kept holy unto the
Lord, has almost ceased to have an existence
in our country. We generally entirely cease
on that day to follow our secular employ
ments; but we devote the day not to the
Lord, but largely to our own carnal pleasure.
Another bad change is the contempt with
which professed Christians treat church dis
cipline. The binding and loosing power
which Jesus Christ gave to the officers of his
church is treated very frequently with scorn.
Because the Church cannotput man in jail,
it's power is despised and its laws tramped
under foot.

A CORREcTIoN.-Over the great Los An
geles earthquake the communities down
South are excessively proud. They claim
that man at San Fernando was actually
thrown out of his bed by the shock: That
this is untrue can be seen by perusing the
following dispatch:
'sEtlitoy: Please correct the statement in
daily papers. My husband was not thrown
out of bed by any earthquake. l threw him
out of bed myself, and I'll do it every time
he comes home intoxicated, and lies down

WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO.

She can talk faster than man can hear.
She can say "No" and stick to it for all
time.
She can also say 'No" in such low, soft
voice that it means eyes"
She can eat her breakfast in bed and en-
Joy it. This is something that no man
can do.
She can sharpen lead-pencil if you give
her plenty of time and plenty of pencils,
qualities which he does not and never did
possess.
She can dance all night in pair of shoes
two sizes too small for her and enjoy every
minute of the time.
She can pass display window of dry
goods store without stopping-if she is run
ming to catch train.
She can appreciate kiss from her hus-
band seventy-fve years after the marriage
ceremony has taken place.
She can walk half the night with colicky
baby in her arms without once expressing
the desire to murder the infant.
She can suffer abuse and neglect for years,
which one touch of kindness, or cOnsidera-
tion will drive from her recollection.
She can 60 to church and afterwards tell
you what every woman in the congrega-
ton had on, and in some rare instances can
give faint idea what the text was.
She can look her husband square in the
eyes when he tells her some cock-and-bull
story about being detained at the office"
without betraying in the least that she
knows him to be a colossal liar.
She can rumple up $4,000 worth of dress
goods and buy a spool of thread, with All
order to have it delivered four miles away,
in style that will transfiX the proprietor
of the establishment with admiration.
She can 60 into convulsions at the, sight
Of mouse, and five minutes later she can
listen to her husbands story of his financial
ruin with loving smile on her face and
with courage in her heart that comes not
within the knowledge of men.
She can-but what's the use! A woman
can do anything and everything, and do it
well. She can do more in minute than a
man can do in an hour, and do it better.
She can make the alleged lords OF creation
bow to her own sweet will, and they will
never know it. Yes, woman can do
everything, with but one exception: she
cannot climb tree.
