Sunday In London.

Talk about the Sunday law and its
compare TO the observance of that day
IN this great city. One hardly knows
London to-day, after the hustle and
whirl of yesterday. The stores have
closed, the wagons have disappeared,
the cabs seem to run more quietly, and
the people seem almost afraid to speak
aloud. What q contrast after a conti-
mental Sabbath l was hungry this
morning, and thought would go to
the Criterion and get lunch. Imagine
my surprise when / arrived at that res
taurant and found it closed, the Gaiety
and ST. James likewise. All down the
Strand, up in the West End. and even
in "the city" the restaurants were
closed tighter than the proverbial clam.
Not place TO eat on Sunday save the
houses, the "grill-rooms" and the
Bullets" are closed until 6 o'clock in
the evening, and even the drinking bars
and ale-houses-as far as exteriors are
concerned-are dark and uninviting.
Unless you know the proprietor, and
can enter by the family" or whole
sale liquor" entrance there is no use
irving to get in before o'clock. There
are plenty of churches TO visit and good
sermons are preached, and the people
seem TO take advantage of this and go
20 church. At Surgeons tabernacle
:he crowd is always great, and every
stranger pays it one visit at least.
When You approach the entrance you
are met by q verger or official who gives
you an envelope. This envelope re-
quests you to give contribution
penny or more-and drop it in the box
provided. The far-seeing. as we'll as
the charitable, do this, and to them the
side gate or door is open. The sexton
places you in back seat and requests
you TO wait until 10: 80 o'clock. The
rule is, pewhdders must be in the, r
seats by that time or lose their places.
When the hour arrives the sexton tells
you to go up the aisle and take any
vacant seat. When those who have
contributed are seated, the great doors
are opened and the crowd admitted.
Then the services begin.-Cor. BATH

LapaneSe Gardens.

The love of flowers, shrubs and trees
is widely spread In Japan; even in the
busy commercial quarters of the large
towns almost every house has its gar
den spot with its tiny dwarf shrubs.
These dwarf shrubs and trees probably
owe their origin to the narrow limits of
space, and their production is carried
on to such ridiculous degree that n
Dutch merchant was shown box three
inches deep, and with square inch of
surface, in which bamboo, fir and n
plum tree, the latter in full bloom,
were growing and thriving The price
asked for this botanical curiosity was
about s400. The method of dwarfing
is by checking the circulation of the
sap, cramping the extension of the
branches, chilling the roots III fiat,
porous pots, which are kept constantly
cold and wet. Many dwarf plants have
striped or variegated leaves, and the
production of such varieties, both
dwarfed and in the natural size, is n
famous hobby with japanese gardeners.
In the portions of TIE garden imme-
diately surrounding the house, no tree
or shrub is allowed TO retain its natural
size, but within one sees fans, ships in
full sail, round tables, candelaba, large
crescents and stiff, rectangular walls.
A soft, velvet-like turf covers the
ground, and the clean gravel paths are
bordered with gay stones, dwarf trees
and flower vases. From the artificial
rivulets rise messy little rocks to which
tiny bridges of every conceivable shape
lead. Such spots require too much
care and attention to admit of wide eX-
tention, and SO they generally occupy
but comparatively small space in front
of the mansion. High, pruned hedges
inclose these green boudoirs, where ma
ture is disguised aud culled as conven-
tional culture and the usage of good
society" demand. Without these lies
the larger part of the garden, where
nature is left more to herself. Japan
csc gardens look most beautiful toward
the end of autumn, when the foliage of
the maple assumes bright, purple hue,
and the azales and wax trees are
clothed in dark purple tints. About
this time, too, the winter chysa9t hem
mum is in bloom; it is the favorite Hover
OF the japanese, WHO possess countless
varieties of it, The size and splendor
of It's star-like flowers are often incredi-

The Education of Ministers.

President Eliot struck the note when
he claimed that ministers ought to be
educated to understand the social spirit
and forces of the age. The study of
sociology is just as important as the
study of theology. You must have
knowledge of both. Men who have
preached about God what they did not
know; they are preaching about man to
the ignoring of the divine revelation;
what is most needed is that they shall
put the Christian church before our
communities as the divine state of hui
man society. 1t is, doubtless, import
ant toswell the membership of churches;
but it is vastly more important to make
our American Christianity respectable
enough TO secure the assent and coop
Grafton and enthusiasm of the capable
young men of the community.-Boston

SIrOn Johns" Grief.

The tenderness Of Lord Lawrence to
his little children to all little children
indeed, was exquisite and unfailing.
The small Bertie, his youngest son,
born during his residence IN England
boforc his appointment as Governor
General, was especially dear to the
fathers heart. "The moment" says
the biographer chat Sir John returned
from his work at the India office he
might have been seen, if il was sum
mer's evening, tramping over the fields
with his young child over his shoulders,
and as the boy grew older, and was
able to walk alone, he would follow his
father about like q dog, trying to walk
as he did, with his hands crossed
behind him. In the winter evenings he
would keep a keen lookout for his
fathers arrival at the door, and follow
him into his room, where they would
play together 10y the. hour; and after
Sir John had been called away to India,
it was long before the child could he
persuaded that the usual hour in the
afternoon would not bring his father to
the door of the house again. OF all the
trials which the new Governor General
had to face III leaving his home, L am
inclined TO think that there was no trial
equal to that of leaving this child per-
Ihanently behind him. i shall never
rec BERTHE again ? he said, and, once
more tho strong hearted man burst into
tears. Not that he was looking forward
60 his own death in India, but that he
know that the child whom he did look
f,,.vord ono 1av tO SEQ aOaln in tlp
fiesh could not be the same child. The
infant would have grown into a boy i;
tho long hair. and the half-formed
words. and the simple child-like trust,
aud the hundred nameless charms
which go to make up a young child,
would bc clean gone. There was
something in the thought which was
almost as hard to bear as the thought
OF death itself. Life Of Lord Lac
