SYNOPSIS.
The idea that God can be made distinct to
the inauguration is wrong-we cannot know
God as we know man-our thoughts cannot
picture nor explain the things most precious
to us-Cbrist spoke of God as Father-fgura-
tive langusge-'Poor in Spirit''-''Except
We become as little children, SC. "-necessity
teaches many things-beauty, order, good
ness, love-spiritual reslities-the value of
the world depends on our capacity-our life
looks out through windows and doors-some
open to the good, Others to the evil-no expla-
of i.
In our care for others-"He that loseth his
life shall find it"--be patient.

A coroner's inquest over the case of John
Patten who committed suicide in Farmingdale
Thursday, by throwing himself in front of a
moving train, was held at Judge Andrews
office yesterday, at ten o'clock. The
following jury was empsneled by Coroner
Libby: A. G. Andrews, John Parsons,
NJ. w. Farr, c. S. Downing, Ersstus
Haskell and Geo. A. Cony The fol-
following witnesses testified: J. F.
Jepson, brakeman; f. F. Yosng, engineer of
the train; Levi Lancaster of Farmingdale,
Abraham Rich of Farmingdale and DR. B.
T. Sanborn of the Hospital. The evidence
was substantially in accord with the account
of the affair in yesterday mornings paper
Mr.. Lancaster is representative-elect of the
class towns of Farmingdale, Pittston and
West Gardiner. He was near Pstten when
the suicide occurred. The testimony show ed
conclusively that no blame rests upon the In
sane Hospital officials, as they used every
reasonable means to discover the lunatic af-
ter his escape. Railroad Commissioner
Wildes of Skowhegan, and a selectman of
Hermon were present in the room. The fol-
lowing verdict was rendered:
That the said John Patten came to his
death at about O'Clock and 80 minutes p
NJ on the 18th day of September, A. D..
1884. at point on the track of the Maine
Central Railroad, opposite Capt. Rich's ice

his body by one of the wheels of said engine,
and the jurv further find that said deceased
was insane when he committed the act, and
that no blame is attached to said railroad
company nor any of its employees.
Next Monday the Maine Central will sell
cheap excursion tickets to Aroostook county.
This will allow visitors to attend both the
Aroostook county fairs, as well as to attend
the Inauguration of the new Episcopal Sem
mary at Presque Isle. Persons who have
never visited Aroostook should not miss an
opportunity to see this magnificent region.
We would call attention to the notice of
Miss Partridges's School in kindergarten,

children whom they do not wish to send to
the public schools, will do well to patronize
this one. Miss Partridge's success the past
three years shows that she has special gift
for teaching and amusing children.

ONE THOUSAND ACRES OE LAND AND
"RIGHT SMART OF BEARS"

ONE THOUSAND ACRES OE LAND AMI
"RIGHT SMART OF BEARS"
On the deck Of big Mississippi steamboat
stood an aged southern planter. Indicating
| by sweep of his arm the waters the boat
| was passing over, he said to a passenger from
| the North "When | was twelve years old
| killed my first bear on a new plantation my
father was then cutting out of forest that
grew directly over the waters of this bend.
That was mighty good plantation, and
there was right smart of bears there, too.
But that one thousand acres of land went
into the Mississippi years ago."
II Is putting no strain upon the figure to
say that great forests of youthful hope, wO-
manly beauty and manly strength are swept
IN the same way every year into the great,
tuTbid torrent of disease and death. Yet 1t
should not be SO. That it is SO Is a dlgrace
as well as a loss People are largely too
careless or too stupid to defend their own in
terests-the most precious Of which is health
That gone, all is gone. Disease is simple,
but to recklessness or ignorance the sim plest
things might as well be complex as a prOpo-
sitiOn in Comic Sections. As the huge Western
rivers, which so often flood the cities along
their shores, arise in few mountain springs,
so all our ailments can be traced to impure
blood and small group of disOrdered organs.
The most effective and inclusive remedy
for disease is PARKER'S TONIC
1t goes TO the sources of pain and weakness.
In response to its action, the liver kidneys,
stomach and heart begin their work afresh,
and disease Is driven out. The Tonic is not,
however, an intOXiCant, but cures a desire
fore strong drink. Have you dyspepsia,
rheumatism. or troubles which have refused
to yield to other agentst Here is your help.

HERBERT E. CLARKE.

We stood for little together,
The water kissing our feet
Around us glowed glad, bright weather;
The morning and you were sweet.
| thought, as you stood there dreaming,
Twas you that lighted the day;
And the water, glancing and cleaning
And hurrying every way
Vocal with brief, light laughter,
As past you it fed to the sea,
Seemed to linger little, and after
think it agreed with me.
Flushed with the wind and glowing,
Silent you stood awhile
Hair in the sunlight blowing,
Smiling dreamy smile.
And 1 saw the wavelets glitter,
Glad but to kiss your feet,
And the wind sang, " Life may be bitter,
But loving can make 1t sweet"
And laughed and loitered around you,
Surely finding you fair;
And the merry sun kissed and crowned You
Queen Of the morning there.
Everything fair seemed to love you,
Seemed proud at your feet to fall
And the lark, singing high above you,
Sang you were the fairest Of all.
And scarcely u word was spokeG,
But our souls to each other spoke,
Till the dreamy spell was broken,
And we started and smiled and woke.
And so, in the glorious weather,
In the morning blithe and gay
Happy In being together,
HspRtlYNandereda away.

Oh,MyBack!

That's a common express
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occaSioned by so many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
negleet it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will so quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Browns IRON BITTERS, and
it does this by commencing

ing the blood pure and rich.

TIE SECOND SERMON
OF DE-. Smiths serIes-why Revelation
Il n Neeesstty,

OF DE-. Smiths serIes-why Revelation
IL q Necessity.
Summed up in very few words the SER
mon delivered by the Rev. J. z. Smith, in
the Fourth street NJ. E. Church, last even
ing, was a masterpiece Of logic, philosophy
and oratory. The subject Of the even 'ngs
discourse was: Revelation Necessity"
The text was taken from Paups first
spistle to the Corinthians, chapter /, %
verse:
but we preach Chris cruci6ed, unto
the Jews q stumbling BLOCK, and unto the
Greek foolishness."
In the course Of his discourse Dr.. Smith
dwelt at length upon the wonderful pow
ers and capabilities Of the Apostle Paul;
upon Greece and her litsrati upon the
splendors and glories of Corinth, aud the
progress Of Christianity in the past eight.
cen centuries.
That q revelation Of God to man is a
recessity, the following reasons were
iYen:
/. The argument of history.
2. The argument of reason.
In the beginning God walked and talked
With msn. What were bis reasons?
l. God must make a revelation to man.
2. IL must be so clean that il must be
acceptable to man.
In the conflict Of philosophy compan-
ions were made between Shakespeare and
Homer, Milton and Virgil and Bacon and
Aristotle. Touching upon the age OF sci
epce, the doctor gave his reasons why SCI
-ptists could not agree upon the subject of
religion was on account Of the chsngeable-
ness Of their theories.
History teaches us tina no nation ever
worShipped one God. Does nature teach
us futurity? Is material soul an i'm.
mortal soul? The Doctor gave it as his
opinion that the evidences were lacking
and said:
"As day follows night and night follows
day, so death follows life and life follows
death"
Lack Of space precludes a more extended
notice OF DR.. Smiths grand effort of last
evening. In his concluding remarks he
said: Religious may come and disappear,
but Christianity will stand secure forever"
