Beauty and Talent.

All women, even the ugliest, feel that
beauty is weapon on their side in the
battle of life; like to see it exert force
and when it is great, and, so to speak
beyond criticism, admire it with genuine
Observation-Disclosures as real as that
which men show in their admiration for
strength manifested in any conspicuous
way. Let any one of the thousand cynics
now leu lging In London ask himself
whether an English Prince who made a
mes-alliance for money or for beauty
would be sooner forgiven, or whether the
owe match of Napoleon I'LL was not one
main cause of that popularity with Eng
I'sa women which outlasted everythin ,
but his surrender. They thought he
should have performed the impossibility
of cutting his way through"
To this very hour the deep feeling OF
English women for the French Empress.
though founded, of course, on pity, is
greatly assis ed by the ,ecollection among
the middle-aged of a triumph 80 conspicu-
Gus and so visibly owing to personal
charm. This kind of female interest is
universal, and extends in more languid
degree to the men, who find in any ma
tional appreciation of beauty not only
the charms which spring from any kinship
in taste, but an excuse for a secret i'm
becility-a powerlessness in presence of
the attraction which they all resent and
feel. We wonder if, besides all this,
there is any residium of the old Greek
feeling that beauty was a clear good in
itself-,a harmonious something which
indicated that the gods of nature were
essentially, and at heart, hostile to man.
The next prince who ascends throne
anywhere will have his praise and quail
ties hymned on the European wires, but
if he were an Apollo or Jove the bull
letin-makers would feel instinctively that
to say so would be regarded not as adula-
ton, but as ridicule. tits for women to
be beautiful, for men to be dignifed-the
latter credit arising from a different
order of ideas, the idea of harmony he
tween place and appearance in the world.
We should doubt if beauty were admired
IN the abstract very consciously, but that
the interest excited by beautiful women
rivals heinterest excited by beautiful
scenery, and this among those who never
see either, except in pictures, we have no
doubt whatever.-London Queen.

The Secret Strength.

We have wondered at the lowlness OF
man who stood among his compeers
like Saul among the people-to find him
simple, gentle, docile, humble as little
child-till we found that it was with
great men as with great trees. What
giant tree has not giant roots? When
the tempest has blown over some such
monarch of the forest, and he lies in
death stretched out at his full length
upon the ground, on seeing the mighty
roots that fed him-the strong cables that
moored him to the SOLVE cease to won
der at his noble stem, and the broad
leafy, lofty head he raised to heaven
defiant of storms. Even 80, when death
has struck down some distinguished saint
whose removal, like that of a great
tree, leaves vast gap below, and whom
brought down now, as it were, to our
own level, we can measure better when
he has fallen than when he stood-and
when the funeral is over, and his reposi
tories are opened, and the secrets of his
heart are unlocked and brought to light
ah now, in the profound humility they
reveal-in the spectacle OF that honored
gray head, laid so low In the dust before
God we see the great roots and strength
of his lofty piety.-Guthrie.

Street Indecencies.

Whether God or Satan shall have com
plete possession of these cities is the ques-
ton OF the hour. Never so many church
es. Never so many reformatory institu-
tlons. Never SO many good men and
women. Never SO hopeful a prospect
But do not think that righteousness will
triumph without many rebufs and ter
rife and long-continued struggles
Take the one fact that many of the
streets of our cities have become depraved
picture galleries, by reason of the I'M
clean figures represented in show win
dows and on board fences Many of the
theatres and opera houses. are, by their
mode of street advertisement, practicing
an indecency that ought longago to have
met the interdict of city authorities
Twenty-Five years ago such pictures
would not have been allowed. The
manager who ordered them and the bill
poster who carried them and the mer-
chant who allowed them in his show
window would have been hauled up in
police court to answer Would you allow
in your parlors and in the presence of
your family on the part of any one such
a lack of apparel? No. Then why allow
tin the presence of the whole city?
| denounce this wholesale immortality
of show-windows of our American cities
as an appalling education in the wrong
direction. Let the merchants of Brooklyn
and New York forbid such insult to pub
lie virtue hanging in their windows. Let
the Mayors of these cities walk through
the streets and see the damnabe spectacle
on Fulton street, Atlantic street, and in
all the prominent streets of our cities,
East, West, North and South. Here is a
practical reform that / demand in the
name of God and of all decent citizens.
If these pictures that present the actors
and actresses unappareled are intended
as specimens of the reformed American
theatres, then they are being reformed
into a Sodom.
In Southern Europe the immoral pic
lures of Herculaneum and Pompeii are
kept under lock and key as specimens of
a polluted age, to be looked at by severe
antiquarians. But New York and Brook
Ign, Philadelphia and Chicago Cincinnati
and New Orleans, and all the cities, put
the pictorial indecencies in show win
dows, on board fences and bulletin
boards for men and women and children
to look at as they go to church or school
or social call or business The stipend
Gus nuisance is getting to be unbearable.
While there never has been an age since
the world stood in which the agencies for
good we're so potential as now, there
never has been an age in which the forces
for evil were so unblushing and blatant.
While we are toiling on toward universal
victory, we must have an intelligent view
as to what the dangers really are.-Dr.

Look Unto Jesus.

There are certain people who look
across the way at their neighbors and
say: If l were as well off as they, how
would help on with the work of the
Gospel !" They then drop down to not
helping at all, which also is their char
acteristic habit There are others who
take up peevish disposition, and Guilt
vate kind ofenvy toward those who do
more than themselves. The root of the
difficulty with all such people is that
they do not want to work, but try to find
excuses for their idleness. 1t their hearts
were in the cause of Christ, they would
do what they could, which is all that he
requires OF any one and, finding pleas
ure in it, they would grow up into dis.
position of brotherly communion with
their fellow-worshipers, and experience
the enjoyment of hearts free from ieal-
@ousy. 1t is always safe to look, reverent-
1y and gratefully, at the Saviour. II
along with this there is a determination
to do his will, there will be healthy, hap
Ply living. 1t is when men quit looking
at him, and selfshly or spitefully look at
each other, that they decline from fruit
full piety, and lose the blessedness of the
Gospel United Presbyterian.

Gods instantaneous Action.

The conversion of sinner is the exer-
else of instantaneous, almighty power.
1t Is effected in a myment. A man can
not be in death and life at the same time.
If he is In death he is not in life if he is
in life he is not in death. When the
quickening power of the living God,
through the Word and by the Holy
Ghost, is applied to the soul, then, at
that moment, the sinner is translated out
of death into life out of the power OF
Satan into the kingdom of Gods beloved
Son. Another instantaneous act of God
is put forth when the believer departs to
be with Christ. I know of no interval
between absent from the body" and
present with the Lord" 1t is a mo-
ment, it is an instant, and before that
departing spirit is aware of the fact the
Lord has the is absent from the
body" he is at home with the Lord.
There is third instantaneous action of
God. The shout that quickens, the see
ing Jesus, the change of the body, and
the being caught up, are momentary and
simultaneous--efected in the twinklinp
of an eye.-SoHau.
