The Herkomer collection of paintings and
etchings, which will be exhibited under the
auspices of the Portland Society of Art next
week, have arrived and are now being hung.

the public exhibition will be open on Monday.
OF course those members who cannot attend
tonight will have an opportunity to see the
collection next week.
At Hewes' art store on Congress street may
be seen specimens of the beautiful Volkmor
ware. This ware, with its secret of glazing
has always been confded to the Haviland' s
factory at Limoges, France. In order to &C
quire it Mr.. Volkmor learned the pottsr's art
in French pottery, and then secured work.
mans position in Haviland's factory where he
obtained the desired secret.
At Hewes' can also be seen Stanwood 8
painting of Peggoty's home on The sands at
Yarmouth. The old boat turned into dwell
ing where Mrs. Gummidge used to sit by the
chimney and call herself "a lone, lorn crea-
ture." The picture is we'll painted, but we
doubt if it will satisfy most of our ideals. 1t
rests too steadily, on even keel, on the beach,
and altogether is a great deal more stylish
dwelling than we had imagined it.

The Christian life is a copy Of
Christ's life; and Christ's life is to the
inhdels the most unanswerable proof
of His doctrine. He is the only
perfect character in history. To this
His enemies have borne uniform tes-
timony. While they have pro-
nounced His divinity myth, and de-
MED His miracles, they have cofessed
their inability to account for the un-
paralleled perfection of His character.
Those who have resisted all other ev-
licences have at length been convinced
by beholding the man. Every Chris
tan may give similar proof of the
truth he believes. Such a Christian
in his disposition, purposes and con-
duct resembles Jesus Christ. His
character and life are fashioned after
that perfect model; and though he
may never reach the perfection of his
model, he may become sufficiently
like HIM to convince the world. The
Christian life includes every virtue,
every excellence that is best in men
and women, every sweet and noble
quality that shines in life North
western Christian Advocate.

Miscellaneous.
In a Virginia church, while a
preacher was delivering a sermon on
the "Prodigal Son." a young man in
the congregation jumped up, and
pulling out his six-shooter, shouted.
Il will not stand these reflections on
me-" He threatened to shoot the
parson if he continued his remarks,
and pious members had to take the
young man in hand and lead him
gently to the door.
An antiquated preacher of the
Free Kirk of Scotland, in a sermon
referring to the introduction of an
organ into neighboring Established
church declared that "soon they
would get concert every Sabbath in
the old kirk. The devil would have
his bandmaster there to discourse
music to them on the organ, and the
captain, like a cursed pirate, would
hoist his false colors to lure souls to
destruction !"
This is the greeting which Texas
paper extends to a new pastor: "The
Rev. Mr.. Glass, the preacher for the
next year, has come. He has pretty
good clothes, doubtless purchased
with means saved by systematic star
walton from his salary of last year,
for he looks little lank. 1t is, per-
haps, quite proper that the world
and especially his church members,
should take his good clothes into con-
sideration and deadbeat the Lord this
year. There is nothing more to be
appreciated than free religion"
The Rev. S. Morals in The Jewish
Record says that the scheme of trans
porting all Jews to Palestine is i'm
practicable. 81 do believe" he says,
"that the outcastS of Judea will be
gathered from the four corners of all
the earth to their land. Had re-
nounced that doctrine 1 would look
for reading desk and pulpit in places
where the ancient Seers are consid-
cred Missionaries and their promises
impossibilities. Yet, implicit as my
trust IS in the Scriptures, hold that
an attempt to renationallze our, PEG
pie, placing the bulk thereof now in
the Holy Land, would be fatal er-
ror; a scheme retarding rather than
Fastening the fulflment of prophetic
aspirations"
Whether or not the Rev. Waldo
Messaros shall continue to be the
pastor of the Northwestern Presby-
terrain church of Philadelphia has
been for some time, and is now,
vexed problem. No one outside of
Philadelphia seems to know just what
the Rev. Waldo Messaros has or has
not done. But whether his sin be
one of omission or commission, he is
a veritable thorn in the side of the
Presbytery, which has recently tried
to cut itself loose from him. The
Rev. Waldo Messaros, however, de-
clares his intention to remain where
he is.
