ULTRA MEN.

. In every Christian denomination and in
every political party, there are persons who
are properly called ultra men. Their ortho-
doxy consists i'm regarding the opinions of
all others as wrong. Usually the opinions
of these ultra men are nothing but bundle
ofundigested notions. Their motto is reign
or ruin," and as they usually are incapable
of reigning, their whole energies are exert
edain efforts to ruin everything socially,
politically and enthusiastically. Like GER
tain notorious King of England, 'They are
everything by starts and nothing long"
They desert and attempt to crush out to-day
the principles for which yesterday they were
avoWedl ly ready to die ,zs .mw.
These ultrM men are not to be Sdepended
on. They will desert any cause the moment
that it becomes evident to them that they
cannot have their own way about every
thing. Arnold deserted the American cause
mainly because he would not be allowed to
do as he pleased. Before this he was ultra
in his notions respecting the rights of the
colonies.
These ultra men are dangerous men. Ar
mold fought as bravely against the 'Ameri-
cans as he ever did for them. Unfortunate
ly, there are in the Church individuals who
too often, are found ready to play the part
played by the traitor Arnold. They are the
bold and fearless advocates of an orthodox
creed and practice so long as they are per-
mitted to have everything their own way.
But let their purposes be thwarted and then
then they are ready to pull downeverything
they have heretofore been attempting, pro-
fessedly, to build up.

AN EFFECTIVE CHURCH.


The great work of the Church is to Chris
tianize the world. That this work may be
successfully accomplished, the people OF God
must be thoroughly drilled. There is not a
single instance recorded in history where
raw militia withstood the attack of drilled
regulars.
The effectiveness of the Church depends
upon the effectiveness of it's indiYidpal
members. The whole must be what the
parts make it. The strength of wall is
what it's single parts makeit. In the Church
every member has particular work to per-
form. If this work is neglected or imper-
fectly performed the whole work of the
Church is so far defectively performed.
When every individual member of a
Christian congregation is faithful in dis
charging his duty the work of the congrega-
tion is light and easily performed. Unfor-
tunately, it often happens that while some
are pulling forward others are pulling back
ward. Under such circumstances the work
of the congregation is draggingly performed.
1t is to- be deplored that so many in the
Church refuse to do anything because they
cannot do great things. This renders the
Church less effective than it otherwise might
be. Many seem to have concluded that Goo
made them to be hones. This is not true.
They make themselves ,drones and charge
God with the sin.
Whenever every individual member of
the Church will have become a working
member, then the Church will be effectual
to the tearing down of the strongholds of sin
and Satan.

LUCERNE.-This grass has history en-
veloped in the mist of antiquity. 1t has
been sknoWmas Eva1pable aodden Rlant in
ancient Media, 500 years before the Chris
tian era. From Media it found it's way into
Greece, thence to the Roman Empire. Pro-
fessor McBryde tells that lucerne was among
the cultivated liguminons plants in the days
of Cato, Virgil and Varro.:
The Southern Planter says of lucerne: ut
has no superior for soiling purposes. on
the 11th and 18th of April it was killed
down to the ground by a severe frost, when
it was fully knee high and would have been
ready to cut in a few days. On the 22nd of
May it was first mowed sand again on July
yielded 1860 pounds fgreen food for soiling,
from one eighth ofan acre. or at the rate ;t+5d OF
meal, and salt sprinkled over it, it is a
wholesome and highly nutritious food for
horses and cattle of all kinds. ~.

COLD WATER DRINKING.-COldW water
baths of the skin are good, but it is doubtful
if flooding the stomach on going to bed and
on rising is not, on the whole, the most prof
liable form of cold bathing. Costiveness,
piles and indigestion are uniformly relieved
by this morning and evening cold douche.
The quantity must be- determtneds BY each
one for himself. Two or three Swallows will
do to begin with, but the quantity will soon
grow to tumblerful and l have known
persons to use much more with marked ben
eft. If wisely managed every dyspeptic
will be greatly improved by this cold stom-
ach bath.

THOUGHTS IN TROUBLE.
BY JOB.
There is one hope to cheer the breast,
When every other one hath fled;
1t is the hope that soon we'll rest
In peace and quiet with the dead;
Where al the generations past .ET
Nosgtfaef slambef triek ana ana POOR Nv
And will, till Gabriels sonorous blast
Tells to the world that times no more!
Oh then, when joys here take their flight,
And sorrows rend the bleeding breast,
Till every day is turned to night
And friends to graves all flee for rest
Where silence reigns with such a charm,
1t seems to say DEATHS powerMs
To bring to any mortal harm,
WHO comes to eaaths metropolis!
Why, then, should any fear to die
And quit this world? who rightly lives,
Or leave his flesh in dust to lie,
To win the bliss that heaven gives!
Why dread to leave this wicked cline,
Where love and truth as plants but grow,
To witheri in he course of lime iE.a
EXotics from their native shore!
Then let none fear ped OF clay,
Or dread the embrace of Deaths cold arms,
Where rest our friends who've passed away
From earthly turmoils, strifes and harms.
Nay, let none think that Deaths his foe,
When he but steals our breath away,
To 1St the weary sniritago q Z l8S8SsI 8
To the bright realms Of endless day!
But dwell, my soul, upon this thought,
That tbouuh Daafb Jara nm asnaot r,aar-
He yet to mortal hath never brought
A cause to shrink from him with fear.
He's but porter-nothing more
To pass us through old Charon's hands
Over the riysrstyx, to the golden Shore
To the Utopia of all lands -
Where the beautiful and good remain,
And Life's sweet river is flowing clear,
And no ones touched by grief or pain,
Or tortured by single fear.
And none are there with treacherous art
And furtive glances to lead astray,
With feignin9 loveto break thsheart
That lea1fs upon them for stay!
Nay there-all there-are true as steel,
Or as the needle to it's pole,
And when one loves, all others feel =
The same sensation of the soul.
While confidence and love fill every breast,
And endless tides of pleasure roll,
Giving each weary heart sweet rest, ,.,.,.a
'asAndlife eternal TO the sou"
But this bright land can never be won,
Until we've passed Deaths iron gate,
And thither thus all have to run
Such is the stern decree Of Fate.
Then, Father of my spirit, hear
And help me, drawing my last breath,
To haD inY grave withouta a fear, rt}.A
And meet with joy the monster Death!

Gess1p-There lis absolutely nos redeem;
ing feature in gossip. Even if. true; we do
not desire to know disagreeable facts about
any of our neighbors. Nothing is more
demoralizng to, a. man than to- lose faith, in
hisfeHows!a The man of@faith and honor
is not apt to be suspicious Of others, and
does not willingly believe evil. The lover
of scandal and the believer in it are alike
deficient in honor and morality, and are
the bane of well organized society. If all
gossips could be quietly killed some morn
f1gthe next generation of men and women
woulk be happier. A case of hydrophobia
now and then starts the cry of s'Muzzle the
dog" "Death on the highways" etc. There
is death and mystery in the highways and
by-ways and in the home from the poison
ed tongues of the ,gossips. Let the voice
90 up, aMuzzle the gossiips:" Teach the
children that gossiping is dishonorabie, and
that faith in the honor and virtue of man-
kind will build up society and add to the
sum of human happiness.

FARMING.-It seems to us the future OF
farming has never looked so prosperous as
at present. Agriculturists are realizing
more freely every day the fact that theirs is
the foundation rock of all prosperity; and
that they are the medium or anetive power
that runs and sustains all industries. Learn
ing and acknowledging the fact is long
step towards Improvement, and when they
come freely to realize the necessity OF edu-
cation and the assistance this will give them,
a marked change can be looked for in the
financial and social condition of the farming
community. 1t is not enough to know, how
to plough straight furrow, or swing a
scythe or cradle. There must be general
change of sOciallfe and INTEL lect4al culture,
broadening and xpahdingo Of mind, d bet
ter knowledge by reading, study and social
contact; not so much living alone with the
plough and the hoe handles as principal
Company, but seeking contact more with the
world. The welfare of this country is in the
hands of the farmers, if they knew it; it's
commercial as we'll as political management
might be subject to their will, if they would
only exercise the mind power, but in this
latter (politicaD condition there is no more
subserVient class to the will Of their mas
ters-political wire-puners-th than they. 1t
is the farmers votes that elect our legisla-
tors, but not their voice, for but few have
the courage to study and discuss questions
on their merit and without party prejudice.
If they did, different class of men would
rule the country, and the agricultural inter-
est receive more direct encouragement and
attention.-Fdrm and Workshop.

ACUREFoR CoRNs.-The Scientific AMER
lean, a very reliable paper, gives the follow
ing recipe as cure for corns. AS the reme-
dy is, very simple, if any of 9srs readers:are
we'll for them to give it a trial: "Take one
fourth cup of strong vinegar; crumble into
it some bread. Let it stand half an hour,
or until it softens into a good poultice.
Then apply, on retiring, at night. In the
morning the soreness will be gone, and the
corn can be picked out. If the corn is a
very obstinate one it may require two or
more applications to effect a cure.

THE COMING SOLAR ECLIPSE.-IWo little
islands in the South Pacific ocean, which
are entirely out of the pathway Qfcommerce,
and are known only to geographers, on the
9Th of next May will become the most i'm
portant points on the globe, as far asastron-
omers are concerned. The total eclipse of
the sun, can only be seen from these two
points. Despite the distance to be traversed
to reach these islands and inconvenience To
be encountered in the short stay upon them
one of them being uninhabited and the 9TH
er peopled only BY 2 score Or two Of Malays,
expeditions have Been prepared by French,
English and American astronomers. The
coming eclipse will be of fespecial interest on
the account of the unusual duration of the
period of totality-fve and one half min
utes. The eclipse of last year, which was
observed in Egypt, lasted but little over
minute, and it IS not singular that the pres
ent eclipse is awaited with unusual interest.
There are three points in particular upon
which astronomers hope to gain information
from observations of the coming eclipse.
One relates to the solar corona and the ques-
|tion whether its appendages are .depen-
dences of the coronal atmosphere, or sWarms
of meteors the second is the zodiacal light
and it's relation to the existence of small in
ira Mercurial planets. eff the weather is
favorable the observations may add consld-
erably to the present knowledge of the solar
system. The American expedition will sail
for the island on Wednesday.-1EnaeS- -Dena-

sci on the other side on the ground that the
matter was coming up in the court of chan.
Gerry, where the lien could be argued. "But,p
urged the embryo lawyer, "this will put my
client to more cost" "Just so," replied his
honor, "but you will get your costs in the
