 four walls of that sick chamber. Out of doors carries wealth of meaning to our souls, hungering and thirsting as they often are after nature's solace. Out of doors brings us visions of verdant turf, mo- saically wrought with starry gems of many hues from the laboratory of spring-time. Indoors ct all hours of day and evening, means sickness and pain. lameness and heart ache. It means infrmity of body so great that life loses it's sweetness. It calls upon us, who revel out of doors these laughing days of glorious summer, to bring sprays of outdoor richness and set vases of wild roses by those invalid chairs. Indoors, on sick bed, means no sight of birds winging around the treetops no sight of lush meadow, no sound of swirling brook waters, no odors of spice-bush or fragrant birch, no panorams of fields of biilowy grass. It means, s1 am sick. Will you, Christian woman, visit me, not only with prayers. but also with hands filled, with those beautiful, soothing smiles of love with which our Heavenly Father has sprinkted his acres" The mounds in Gods own aore are annually generously covered with bright 6owers ia precious remembrance of our soldier dead.

 CHICAGO, May 28.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Unusual activity characterizes political cir cIes here at present, and the National Repub lican convention, which meets on Tuesday of next week, is the absorbing topic. The delegates are gathering rather slowly, but by the end of this week large majority of them will be quartered at the various hotels where apartments have been engaged for them. The miscellaneous crowd of candi- dates, dark horses, managers, assistants, cu- riosity seekers and politicians generally will have no difficulty in securing Rccommoda- tions, for th @ hotels have made extraordinary preparations to provide for the great host of people. Since the last National convention here several new public houses have been erected, and some of the old ones have been enlarged, so that the hotel capacity has been nearly doubled in four years. There is scarcely any man or woman engaged in busi ness who has not erected a monument of cal- culations as to the profits and benefits to be derived from the gathering. The hotels, res taurants, printing houses, saloons, newspa- pers, theatres and railway companies, and many other lines will profit directly, while all business will derive more or less indirect benefit. Apart from the regular and legiti mate business, there are many temporary schemes designed to make money out of the convention. Every man feels that this sum- mer brings opportunities that do not come every four years, and that he must be in with the tide and catch the golden shekels Hence many mental fountains of ingenuity have been drawn on and the results will be complex and varied. There will be men with every conceivable ''scheme" to capture the dollars of the delegates and visitors
 The convention hall, which is now being occupied by the May festival, will with a few changes, be fully ready for occupancy by the monster meeting on Tuesday noon, when the convention convenes. The cham ber is considered by the members of the committee and others to be the best that he's ever been presented to. any convention. It IS constructed to occupy the northern DOT tien of the Exposition building and at either end, where the seats rise rapidly, it resem- hles an amphiEheatre. At the north end the seni-circular stage rises four feet from the floor, and will be occupied by the officers of the convention, the Associated Press report CTS, the members of the National Republican committee, the Illinois State committee and the distinguished guests who have been agreed upon. Tables will be placed in front of tho stage for three hundred working re- porters of the leading dailies throughout the country. Several of these journals will have from two to four representatives in attend ancs. The main floor will be occupied by

the $40 delegates, while the alternates will be seated to the immediate south. The north amph1theatre will be occupied bv distin- guished guests, and the remaining seats in the south amphttheatre, stalls and galleries will be given up to those who may be fortn. nate enough to secure seats from the dele gates. The citizens who have Contributed the necessary funds for defraying the expen- ses of the convention will be furnished with seats on the basis of one ticket for each S25 paid in. The sounding boards at either end of the hall, artificial free ceilings and tbe false walls shutting of the Hobbies, will rem der the acoustic properties of superior or der, and altogether the chamber is most com plete and acceptable.
 At the Blaine headquarters the managers of the interests of the distinguished quad rennial candidate are busy with correspond ence by telegraph, and freely express the greatest confidence that their chief will carrv on the honors not later than the fifth ballot. They add slyly that the entire Logan strength Will swing over to Blaine at an early period of the convention.
 The Arthur bureau is full of business and hls workers are in excellent spirits. They are preparing great scheme to issue an ex- tra edition of half million copies of one of the Chicago dailies the day before the conn vention, giving interviews with leading busi- ness men and setting forth arguments to show that the country has unbounGsd confs dence in the present administration. Arthur people also intimate that the Logan delegates are ready to go over to the administration forces at the proper time.
 The Edmunds headquarters are in the hands of elderly men who seem to have any amount of mysterious work to perform. They state that the Logan army will wheel into line for the Vermont leader at the word of command
 Thus the indications are that the Logan men have been telling sweet tales into the ears of nearly all the leading candidates and the probabilities are that the Illinois delegates will mass their strength where it will do the most good.
 The latest combination, developed to-day, IS HaUley of Connecticut and Oeles6v of Illinois, strictly war record, hurrah tick et If deadlock is likely to ensue in the convention the inventors of this combins- ton believe they can start in with I25 votes for Hawley, with the understanding that Uncle Dick Oglesby shall be nominated for second place

Against Anxiety.

1t is distrust of God which lies at the
root of unlawful anxiety. A feeble ap-
prehension of God as the agent who over
causes which lie outside of our reach, and
those events which escape our foresight
this it is which shakes the soul with vague
uncertainty, and fills with causeless alarms
the darkness of tomorrow. The doubt
whether God, who counts for 30 much in
the contingencies of life, be one whose at
titude to us may be wholly trusted, or the
suspicion that we may have really as
much to dread as to hope for from his
superintendence-this it is which cannot
but unsettle mans steadfast outlook
into the coming days, and toss his spirit
to and fro in the restlessness of distrac.
ton. Because we are "of little faith"
therefore are we not content to plan and
work, and having planned and wrought,
to sit and wait; but must fidget ourselves
about that which may be, until impotence
gnaws us like worm, and our imagina-
ton, picturing disasters in the dark, burns
US like fire. Why is it that popular prov
cribs attest how much worse are fancied
ills than real ones, and how the evils
which we most dread never overtake us
1t is Just because this distrustful human
heart of ours is so prone to prophesy, and
so lively to exaggerate, misfortune ?
Like soothing, cooling breath from a
serener world, there comes down upon the
feverish, selftormenting spirits of men
this word of One who was the messenger
of him whom we distrust I" Be not snxi-
GUS about your life; be not anxious about
to-morrow."-Rev.J j. OSWALD Dykes

What Upon the Lord.

hearts, not one of US has yet seen his best

but spiritually we may win our greatest
victories actually on the day of death.

How Watch Cases are Made.

This process of manufacture was invented
by James Boss, who started in business in
1854, and the methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. This is he only watch case made
under this process. For many years the in
PRODUCTION of these goods was slow, owing
topopular prejudice against "plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that the
James Boss Gold Watch Case was not
cheap sold-wdshed or electro-pIated article,
but was made of genuine gold plates Of
standard quality and thickness. Conscientious
adherence to the determination to make
the best watch case ever put on the market,
and the adoption of every improvement
suggested, has made the james Boss Gold

1t Never Grows Old.

Many years ago, when some of us were
mere boys, we listened to the Gospel of
Jesus, and our hearts leaped as we EN-
braced it; it was the life and Joy of our
spirit; now after to-day, after having ad-
vanced far in the divine life, if we hear
one of those simple sermons that first
brought us to Christ, concerning the
precious blood of Jesus and child.like
faith in him, it suits us quite as we'll as
in those early days. have noticed with
regard to well grown Christian people,
that when have given purely evangeli-
cal discourse, meant only for sinners, and
not at all designed for the edifying and
comforting of fullaged saints, they have
sucked 1t In with as much delight as If
they were themselves newly converted
After all, though you and are not now
fed upon milk, yet draught of milk is
still most refreshing. Though we can
now digest the solid meat of the kingdom,
yet the children's bread has lost none of its
relish in our esteem. The elementary
truths are still sweet TO our hearts ay,
sweeter than ever they were.-Spmgeon.

"CaIl the Next Witness !"

There is not more common offense
against the laws of common courtesy than
is practiced by a certain class of lawyers
nowadays in the examination of wit
nesses upon the stand. Now and then,
however, an important lawyer "gets it
back " in such way that he is fain to
"call the nert witness" OF such was the
following: At late term of the court
of sessions a man was brought up by a
farmer, accused of stealing some ducks.
"How do you know they are your ducks p
asked the defendants counsel. ooh,
should know them any where" replied the
farmer; and went on to describe their
different peculiarities. why" said the
prisoners counsel, "those ducks can't be
such rare breed; have some very like
them in my own yard" "That's not I'M
likely, sir" replied the farmer they are
not the only ducks have had stolen latelyp'

Easter Reflections.

So, while the grasses are springing fresh
in the fields and on the lawns, and the
buds are swelling and the flowers are
opening, and the forests are using the sub
tie chemistry of light and warmth and
April showers and softened earth, to re-
create waving foliage, and the birds are
coming back to sport and sing on every
branch, it may well be ours to roll back
every stone, and let the Christ, too deeply
buried, we may be sure, in the unbelief
and GOODNESS of our hearts, come forth
into newness of life. At the glad Christ
mas time we think not only of how he,
the Son of God, came to us, clad in the
robes of the flesh, to be at once our Brother
and Redeemer, but we think how, in every
human soul, this same Son of God, with
his light, and purity, and love, and Joy,
ought to have re-incarnation, so that he
may be seen walking still among men and
in men. At this glad Easter time it is
well for us to think not only of that far
back morning which was lighted up for
all the world when the divine Sleeper
arose and came forth because there was
no power in the grave to hold him, but
of the many ways also in which he can
come into new resurrection in US. He
wants to rise in us, and be our life. Let
him forth. Roll away the stone of sin
Roll away the stone of doubt. Roll away
the stone of indifference. 1t is not good
it is infinitely bad-to have the possible
Christ who might be in us, making and
keeping US forever, ennobling our thoughts
and our lives, inspiring US with sublime
homes and filing us with great iOva saD
ulchral in our souls, and this stone against
the door sealed with selfshness and scorn
Roll away the stone-Dr. F. A. Noble.
