Self.Delusion.

The novelist, Mrs. Stowe, has some
where said that "self-imposition is
preliminary to imposing on others
The vital nerves OF truth are paralyzed.
Things are not seen rs they are. lsaah's
awful description is verified, "a de.
ceived heart hath turned him aside; he
feedeth ON ashes"
IL requires adrotness on the part of
teacher TO convince cayiller of his
self-delusion and TO show him the pau.
city Of his materials Of unbelief The
trouble is in the heart, not so much In
the head. "Ye will not come unto me-
A little sagacity will sometimes reveal
all this TO the doubter, if he be at all
candid. A gentleman once called on
DIR. X. $. Storrs, saying In substance.
"Will you allow stranger 10 ask adj

doP" DIR. Storrs begun by asking If he
would, for purpose Of conversation. al

thought that he might admit that sin

cluded that he did really believe that

difference in the act of coming here 10
converse with me and in coming TO as.

him how much he did really believe.
In the course Of one or two hours the
gentlemen was thoroughly convinced
that he was wrong in saying he believed
nothing. He said he had conscience.
He admitted not only the facts Of con
sciousness but the distinctions Of right
and wrong. In other words he had i'm.
posed upon himself. The materials ol
unbelief were more scanty than he had
fancied, and those Of positive truth
more abundant than his blinded heart

The Transforming Power Of Love.

A man who is upright in heart often
finds it hard TO maintain uprghtness
in life. 1t is not strange that he, when
asked to contribute to some reform
work, should accompany his gift with
smile of incredulity. The smile
simply means; If you and !, who are
bent on being good, find it hard work
to express our intention in life, what
can you expect of those whose bad
lives are the expressions of their cor
rupt heartsP'
The answer to such incredulity-it is
the only reply that convinces--is to
show him reformed person, one whose
desires and purposes have been changed.
Such presentation is made in the fol-
lowing anecdote:
Twenty years ago a gentleman Wis
tied the Massachusetts, Reform School,
and selected boy to take into his
family. The one chosen was a wild,
wiry fellow, who had been sent there
from the Boston streets. He quietly
accompanied the gentleman until they
arrived in Boston. While on the way
to depot, his old impulses to evil re-
turned, and he suddenly darted from
the gentleman's side and ran up side
street full Of tenement houses, the
abodes Of crime and dissipation. The
gentleman, being fleet Of foot, soon col
Jared the boy and forced him to walk to
| the cars.
Unpromising as was the beginning
Of the effort to make good man of a
bad boy, the gentleman determined to
persevere.
After few weeks, his kindness won.
the boys heart. Love for a good man
took the place of his evil desires. The
expulsive and impulsive power Of a
new affection caused him TO slough of
his wild influences and gave him a
new purpose. Then he began to show
himself tractable, obliging, steady and
gifted with unusual force Of will.
The love of agood person is a trans
forming power. 1t creates desire for
good; the desire inspires a right pur-
pose. One Of the most noble things a
good person can do is to often allow a
weak person to share his sympathy
and society.
One day the boy did not surprise his
patron by telling him that he would
like to go to school. He had been ex-
pecting it, and had formed his plans.
Instead Of sending him to an academy
and paying his expenses there, he
helped him to obtain work, by which
he paid his own bills.
He took a special course at neigh
boring academy, and as soon as he had
completed it, announced that he in
tended to be a lawyer. His foster
father, staggered at this rapid stride.
tried TO dissuade him from his purpose,
as he thought him untitled for that pro-
fession. But the boy, with characters
tic determination, persisted.
He entered = lawyers office, earned
a little money, and after a years study
went West.
He who few years ago was wild
boy, trying 10 break away from all good
influences, is to-day one OF the most sue
cessful lawyers in Minnesota, and better
than that, man whose influence in
society is elevating, Christian and help
full TO others.
Is il not thus that Christ transforms
life by leading us to love Him who is
holy, and bringing new purpose out Of

THE BEAUTIFUL.

Scatter the germs of the beautiful,
By the waysde let them fall.
rha. .he rose may spring by the cottage-gate,
And the vine on the garden wall;
Cover the rough and the rude OF earth
With vail of leaves and flowers,
And mark with the opening bud and cup
The march of summer hours.
Scatter the germs Of the beautiful
In the holy shrine of home;
Let the pure and the fair and graceful there
In the loveliest luster come;
Leave not trace of delormity o.
In the temple of the heart
But gather about It's hearth the gems
OF nature and of art
Scatter the germs OF the beautiful
In the temple of our God
The God who starred the uplifted sky,
And flowered the trampled sod.
When He built temple for Himself,
Ard home for His priestly race,
He reared each arm In symmetry,
And covered each line in grace.
Scatter the germs OF the beautiful
In the depths OF the human soul;
They shall bud and blossom and bear the fruit
While the endless ages roll.
Plant with the flowers of charity
The portals of the tomb.
And the fair and the pure about thy path
In paradise shall bloom.

What the Standard Oil Company Is.

The Standard Oil Company, which is
so much talked about and so little un-
derstood, has its headquarters in this
city, and its executive board is said to
hold meeting on every business day in
the year. The capital of the company is
not very large, perhaps three or four
million dollars, but the capital Of the
Trust Company. which manages the
fiscal affairs of the Standard, is snid to
be as high as seventy millions. What
ever he the capital, it pays six per cent.
and the stocks sell in the neighborhood
Of par. The men considered in the oil
regions to be the master spirits Of this
company are both very young, Mr..
Rockafeler and Mr.. Archibald; the lat
ter is hardly thirty years Of age He is
the son Of a Methodist preacher in the
oil regions, and dcve oped a genius for
commerce and executive work when a
mere lad in a country bank, ant his en-
ployer gave him the capital to start an
oil refinery. He attends to the details
of this huge company, which has hardly
parallel on the globe for breadth OF
conception and inGnitude of particulars.
If this were an English company it
would rank always with the East India
Company Of the time Of Warren Hast
ings. II is 10 be observed that the chief
operators against il are themselves
spectators. Mr.. James Keene was
one Of the leading spirits in the rival
pipeline. The Standard pipe is a sep
arate corporation known rs the Nation
al Transit Company, and its pipes lie
buried side by side, and are six
inches in diameter, and il is said that
the right of way was acquired for about
$500 mile. Their telegraph is an enor-
nous concern also The low OF oil Is
about 10000 barrels n day, | under
stand, and this company keeps in its
tanks or pipes or relineries from 30000,-
900 TO $4,000 100 barrels at time.
Its profits are derived from storing and
forwarding the oil, which pays lilIe9n
cents barrel per apnum for storage
and twenty cents q barrel for trans or
tation TO the seaboard They are al'o
the greatest exporters in the United
States, and often send out ship full of

Society In washington.

Leaving aside the question of political
morality, few people who have passed a
winter in Washington will deny the
charm o its society. Acknowledging
all its faults, its crudeness narrow
ness, perhaps and its lack of form, it
must yet be acknowledged that it diff
ers rom all othe American society in
the fact that it is not founded ON wealth.
Il is the only society which is really
republican, though it has tile resem-
blance to the "Republican Court Of
tho first Admni;tratiOn--the only one
in America which has II wcll-delined
basis. And that basis is public station,
temporarily conferred, whether directly
or indirectly, by the expressed wishes
of fellowmen. The holding of such
public station necessarily implies intelli-
gence, and thus it is intelligence, as dis
tnguished from lineage or wealth.
which is the fundamental basis in
Washington society. Such n society
does not feel obliged to adopt certain
customs because it is reported at second
hand that they are good form in London.
Its opinions are robustly Independent.
its information is extensive, and its
subiecss OF conversation are many and
varied. 1t is not to be imagined that
such society is well defined, or that
its rules are clearly established though
it is true that the etiquette Of Social
Life in Washington" has been most elab-
orately formulated in a little pamphlet,
OF which fresh edition is perennially
produced, and which is said to sell in
great numbers. 1t is undoubtedly open
TO the criticism of being raw, to the
same extent-but no more-that society
in London is subservient and snobbish,
and in New York illiterate and com
mercial Nothing can be more ridicu-
lous than the public levees of the Pres!-
dent, where the doors are thrown open
that every person in the street may en-
| ter them In crush, and stand in a
slowly-moying procession Tor two hours,
In order that during half Il minute Of
that time the President may be seen and
his arm may be wrenched. But this Is
not peculiar to Washington alone. such
"public receptions" are inflicted upon
Presidents in all cities which they
visit. Hardly less incongruous are the
Wednesday afternoon receptions OF the
wives Of Cabinet officers; when the r
doors are also thrown open and hundreds
of strangers tramp through their parlors
"to pay their respects Tho wives of
Judges and Senators and Represent
atives have to endure the same thing on
other afternoons of the week. 1t has
come to be considered as part of the
price of public station But no matter
what office a man may hold, no one may
come TO his dinner table without an in
vitation. And it is in dinners that
Washington society excels. Diplomats
and travellers from every part of the
world; men distinguished in political
life, on the Bench, and in war; men Of
science and men of letters; women of
intelligence and culture, with the native
grace and beauty for which American
women are Justly celebrated-there is
no such wealth Of choice in any other
American city, and there are no other
dinner parties $50 entertaining as those
Of Washington Century.
