as careless speech. Parents who are am
bilious for their children's future should
consider that no charm surpasses a spon-
taneous but perfect articulation. The
training involves the discipline of both
ear and tongue. The simple attempt to
make perfect sound instead OF slip
shod one is an admirable means of quick
ening the powers of observstion-an in
dispensable element of education. This
leads naturally and surely to a better
choice Of words from vocabulary 80 rich
and varied as the English language.
Then there is, with people of fine sensi-
bilities, loyalty to the native tongue and
a sense of honor in maintaining its purity
that dignifies an honest effort to help the
children of to-day to attain a clearer
speech, richer and more melodious Eng
lish. One cannot help sympathizing with
the comico-heroic Frenchman who stood
ready to fight-a duel over mistake in
spelling. He said "The French Ian
guage is a well.beloved compatriot-s
lady of good family, whose honor must
remain unsullied." A last word from
Oliver Wendell Holmes " He who would
violate the sanctities of his mother-tongue
would invade the paternal till without re-
morse, and repeat the banquet of Saturn
without indigestion. Mus o. NJ. E.

The Jesus-Teaching.

At meeting in Japan where number
of Christian girls were gathered together,
the subject was I" How to glorify Christ
by our lives" One of the girls said: I" 1t
seems to me like this One spring my
mother got some flower seeds-little, ugly,
black things-and planted them they
grew and blossomed beautifully. One
day neighbor coming in and seeing
these flowers said, ooh, how beautiful l
must have some too; won't you please
give me some seed2' Now, if this neigh
Dor had only just seen the flower seeds,
she wouldn't have called for them twas
only when she saw how beautiful was the
blossom that she wanted the seed. And
so with Christianity; when we speak to
our friends of the truths of the Bible,
they seem to them hard and uninterest-
ing, and they say We don't care to
hear about these things; they are not as
interesting as our own stories.' But when
they see these same truths blossoming out
in our lives into kindly words and good
acts, then they say, How beautiful these
lives What makes them different from
other lives?' When they hear that tits
the Jesus-teaching, then they say, We
must have it, tool And thus by our
lives, more than by our tongues, we can
preach Christ to our unbelieving friends

Religion and Politics.

Some of our religious exchanges, which
are doing good work in their proper and
ostensible vocation, we think are making
a great mistake just now in this very
matter. 1t is really surprising to read in
the editorial columns of one of them such
utterances as these: /" We will not sup
port the ticket nominated at Chicago"
and Z" We shall this week hear from our
religious contemporaries" among whom
"a grand stampede" is expected-just as
though it were matter of course that the
"religious contemporaries would array
themselves on one side or the other of
the oncoming political contest Another,
following in the train, expresses itself
"sadly disappointed in the candidates
chosen, and speculates about the posi-
bility of their carrying the state of New
York. These are but samples of the
manner in which a number of our reli-
gious exchanges are uttering their battle
cry as they grid on their armor for the
political contest. While we maintain
that religion has right everywhere, and
that no Christian can safely 60 anywhere
without it, and that every man should by
his vote and influence seek to purify the
politics of his country, party politics
belong not to the domain of the pulpit or
the religious journal. Our country has
secular and political journals enough to
do that subject ample justice. For the
religious paper, the answer of Nehemiah
to the temptation of the crafty Sanballat
is just to the point: 81 am doing great
work, 80 that cannot come down. Why
should the work cease, whilst leave it
and come down to you ?"--Herald and
Presbyter.

Extravaganza In Living.

Such crimes as those of Ferdinand
ward, while they spring often from de-
pravity, are oftener the result of mere
weakness of character. Thackeray in
many of his minor sketches constantly
draws the portrait of the man and woman
whose means are not equal to the style of
living which they desire and they desire
it not for itself, but only because others
have it. They are not strong and steady
enough to be content with that which
they can command and afford, and the
means to secure the other must somehow
be obtained. Thackersy puts the fact in
the simplest and most amusing form.
The young couple must give dinner,
and instead of the joint of lamb and the
glass of beer which is the only repast to
which they have the moral right to invite
friend-if, indeed, the beer may be
morally permitted-they must needs pre-
pare feast which they cannot honorably
afford, and for the sole reason that other
people who can afford it give such feasts.
1t is this doing little more, or a great
deal more, than the doer can honestly af-
ford, which leads to the swindles of Wall
street. Living in house too expensive
for his means, maintaining it accordingly,
dressing as his richer neighbors dress, do
ing in all things as they dot is this
weak compliance which is hidden in the
fine houses, drives to the park in the fine
equipages, which presently ends in Lud-
low street Jail and hopeless disgrace. Yet
it is the poorest kind of competition, be-
cause the little imitator might see, even
with his dull eyes, that there must always
be few persons who can edo the thing"
better than all the rest, and without feel
ing it. The bullfrog may swell until he
bursts, but he cannot rival the OK. This
is the tendency which all sensible people
and a great many otherwise sensible
people are swept away by it-ought
quietly to resist. The power of individual
example is immense, but it is often I'M
derestimated by the individual. "My
vote is of no consequence, but, since you
wish it, will VOTE" said man to his
neighbor, and the right candidate was
elected by majority of one. The fam.
lily which, in the midst of a saturnalia of
luxury and extravaganza, refuses to take
part in it, and holds to a simple, moder-
ate, temperate way, is diminishing the
supply of Ferdinand wards and Wall
street panics.-Harper's Magazine.

Reading Aloud.

If you ask eight people out of ten now,
they will tell you that they hate being
read to. And why Because from their
childhood they have been unused to it, or
used only to such monotonous drone as
robbed even the "Arabian Nights" of
half their charm. The husband, at the
end of hard days work, returns home to
pass the evening absorbed in his book, or
doing over the fire, while the wife takes
up her novel, or knits in silence. If he
read to her, or if he could tolerate her
reading to him, there would be community
of thought, interchange of ideas, and such
discussion as the fusion of two minds
into any common channel cannot fail to
pro duce. And it is often the same when
the circle is wider. 1 have known large
family to pass the hours between dinner
and bedtime, each one with his book or
work, afraid to speak above his breath,
because d" it would disturb papa" Is this
cheerful, or wise, or conducive to that
close union in household which is q
bond of strength through life, which the
world can neither give nor take away?
/ cannot blame them, for they all read
abominably ; and it is enough to have
endured the infections of family prayers,
gasped and mumbled by the head of the
family, to feel that listening to such
delivery for any length of time would
exasperate one beyond endurance. But
it was not always so. In the last century
even as late as fifty years ago-reading
aloud was regarded as an accomplishment
worth the cultivation of these Especially
those who lived in the country with pre-
tensions to taste and it was, consequently,
far more frequently found enlivening the
domestic circle. There were fewer books,
fewer means of locomotion, fewer plea
sures of winter nights, outside the four
walls of the country parlor. The game
of cribbsge, or the sonata on the spinet,
did not occupy the entire evening after
six o'clock dinner and Shakespeare and
Milton were more familiar to the young
generation of those days than they are
now-mainly, l feel persuaded, because
they were accustomed to hear them read
aloud. The ear, hsbituated to listen, is
often more safe conduit to the memory
in youth than the inattentive eye which
rapidly skins page.-NineteenM Century.

Queen RavanarOla Ill.

The coronation services of the new
Queen of Madagascar-so recently hea-
then power-were very beautiful in their
Christian simplicity. Nine hundred chill.
dren from the schools in her capital were
her escort to the place of her coronation.
On the canopy, under which she was
seated, were the words "God is with u.s."
On table at her side lay very hand
somely bound Bible. In her address to
her people, she expressed her earnest
desire for the vigorous prosecution of the
teaching in the schools and churches, and
quoted from the Bible the passages (;
