Stretehy Religion.

An old couple, man and wife, were
along the wharves day or tive ago
hunting for an up-shore boat, and the
woman explained 10 steamboat agent:
'.It is very stormy season and we ex-
pect to be seasick, and we'd ruther go
on boat where the captain is relig-
ious man."
"Well, that's all right" he replied.
We've got one very religious captain
on our line, and his boat sails to night. y
"Can we go down and see hlm?"
"Oh, yes. Keep right down the street
until you see the boat"
The couple walked on and finally
boarded the steamer. The captain and
all hands were busy with the cargo, but
the old folks walked up to him and the
woman said:
"Capting, you have been recommend
ed to Us as religious man."
1.-THE - havew he growled.
They looked at each other with con-
sternation depicted in the their face, and
then the old man said:

The social and domestic relations of
husband and wife were discussed by q
clergyman, who said that the Scriptures
make the relationship very plain. Hus.
bands and wives are fellow travellers on
life's highway, and they are brought
together by choice, not by chance. In
the presence of God and man they have
sworn to bear each others burdens. They
have not foreseen all the troubles and
responsibilities that await them they
will find defects in each other which can
only be rightly met by mutual consider
alton and forbearance. AS the husband
is the ruler of the family and sustaips
the same relation to the wife as Christ
does to the church, the hue band is first
in responsibility, and the wife, instead of
denying this responsibility, as some
women do, should force it upon the hus-
bands attention If he be disposed to for
get it. The husband is responsible for
the support of the family and no man is
Christian who does not do all he can
for his family.
If a man gives the reins of government
into the hands of his wife, and the family
carriage is wrecked thereby, he is re-
| sponsible for damages. Many men treat
| their wives like children. They regard
their views and opinions as of no value.
which is altogether wrong. The key to
happiness is mutual confidence. Have
no secrets from each other. But wives
are to submit to their husbands only s'at
| it is fit in the Lord" a woman is not *
give up her religion or her conscience
A good husband will nearly always
made good wife. A man does not take
wife because she is philosopher, bui
to satisfy his cravings for the beautiful
the good and the gentle. Hence it is hi
duty to furnish his wife with the means
of making herself as attractive after mar
riage as before. A neat. tidy house anG
a neat, tidy wife are bound to exercise g
powerful influence for good upon tbs
family. Wives should never be slovenl,
in dress, and should make themselves
and their homes agreeable. HON,
should be the dearest place on earth to .
man, and it generally is when it is mad

Chicago's Cable Cars.

Clangl Clang! The warning sound of
the gong, which in large cities means the
rapid rush of the fire lsddies and the
machine to a fire, smote sharply on
our ears rs on the evening of our first
arrival in Chicago we stepped from the
obsourity of Van Buren, into the glare of
State street. Clang! clang! clang! fiercely
rang out the bell. We stopped and anx-
iously scanned the sky, but as yet the
confagration did not appear to be much
of success. Yet from every direction
came the changing of the gongs, and we
stood expectantly awaiting what, next to
q charge on the field of battle, is the
most thrilling exhibition OF mans cour-
age-the charge OF the Fire Brigade.
But no one else in the throng seemed to
share our excitement; there was no turn
ing to right and left Of teams, no shout
ing of urchins, not even lone OF the
finest" in sight, not o ripple could
be discerned. "Well," said ! to myself,
"Chicago must be fire-hardened." And
on came the changing bells, and there
passed across our line of vision three
cars coupled together travelling steadily
and rapidly. No plunging eteeds, no
smoking tunnels, no shower of sparks,
no hoarse shouss-only three horse cars
swiftly and mysteriously bearing their
heavy freights up and down the busy
street. We had seen the cable cars! Blu,
on they ge-now stopping. now starting;
now slower, now faster; no motor in
sight, no cylinder, no escaping steam
no machinery; yet, under the perfect
control OF driver, they are as docile as
the fine ct Baldwin" What, then, pro.
pels these numerous trains? To say
simply an endless chain would convey

ping with scarcely q perceptibls jerk,
others with suddenness rather more
than perceptible. But as the road has
been in operation but little more than q
year. it is hardly just to criticize the raw
recruits.
But here we are at Twenty-second
street. Above the door of the building
an illuminated shield bearing the leg
and . Welcome. assures rs that w6 are
not trespassers; so we enter. The first
that strikes our attention is one of the
tgrips" with section of cable. This is
very simple contrivance; and (not to
go into detail too closely consists of two
parallel shoes of iron, shod with wood,
between which the cable is allowed to
slip either faster or slower or not at all
thus guaging the speed of the car.
For instance: At full speed the cable is
firmly grasped by the grip; at the slow
est it is merely pressed by the shoes. The
cable is of wire, six strands. with hemp
center. Next we lock at the en-
gines, built by Jerome Wheelock of Wor-
cester, Mass, two of which are busily
working. They are of $50 horse power
each. and work seven cables, four di-
rectly and three indirectly. These cables
move at different rates of speed. On
State street down town the rate is seven
miles, while beyond the busy streets the
rate is increased to eight miles. On
Twenty-second street, for two blocks,
the rate is but four miles an hour. One
of the most interesting sights is the
"tension carriage" a car confined by
heavy weight and chair, which allows it
to move in obedience to the demands of
the cable, keeping the latter at about the
same tension continually, and allowing
for any severe strain by yielding slowly
to the demand. While under the old
system the company could run but one
car, 1t can now run three, and the public
is given better accommodation ana more
of it, and the cable system is deservedly
q success

An Australian Walking Tour.

A walking tour of a very remarkable
character has just been completed by
Mr.. Ernest Morrison, son of Mr.. George
Morrison of the Geelong Scotch College.
He had already achieved some reputa-
as traveller, having few years ago dur.
ing holiday vacation, walked overland
from Queenscliff to Adelaide. On this
occasion, however, he undertook and has
since successfully completed, the ambi-
tious task of traversing the continent of
Australia from the gulf of Carpentaria to
Melbourne.
Leaving Normantown on the week be-
fore Christmas, he passed through Clon-
curry, followed down the Diamantina
and the Thomson, and struck the Bulloo
at Thargomindah and the Paroo at Hun
gerford. Following then the Paroo he
crossed the Darling at Wilcannia, the
Lachlan at Booligal, the Murrumbidgee
at Hay, and the Murray at Echuca. BE
walked the entire distance alone and un-
armed. generally sleeping in the open
AIR. He was caught by the heavy rains
above Thargomindah and for $50 miles
had nearly AS much wading through
water as walking. The journey of over
1000 miles occupied just 100 days. his
rate of travelling being greatly impeded
by the weight he had to carry. = Mel

REPUBLICAN papers slur the late con-
ventiOn of free trade refOrmers, whose
Offense is that they declare in favor Of
tariff duties simply for revenue, and OBJ
ject forcing man to pay higher price
to another than he can buy for In the
open MAJ ket. Senator Sherman in his
tariff interview, reported in the Cinein-
natl Commercial Gazette Of March 18th,
said the trouble In modifying the tariff
was caused by manufacturers, all Of
whom we're free traders in everything
they buyl When they, whose interests
are protected, are free traders in all they
want to buy, why not farmers who have
to sell in free trade marketp Accord
ing to Mr.. Sherman, all are free traders,
even the protected manufacturersl
Those want a fat bounty for them
selves, that is all.
