A. third writer attributes 1t to increasing insanity. a physician thinks much of the tendency is inherited, while temperance advocates lay the responsibil- ity upon strong drink.
 Free thinkers have committed suicide. but so have orthodox chuYchmen. Flnan- cial straits have beset many, but the wealthy have also taken their life.
 Insanity and dissipation have preceded suicides and family murders.

CHILDREN BY THE SEA.
BY JEAN INcELow.

Here comforted of pilot stars they lie In charmed dreams, but not oi wold nor
 lea. Behold ship her white yards score the sky i; She sails a steefblue sea. As turns the great amassment of the tide, Drawn of the silver despot to her throne, So turns the destined souls, so far and wide The strong deep claims its own. Still the old tale, these dreaming islanders, Each with hot SunderDunis somewhat
 owns That calls, the grandsire blood within them
 stirs-
 Dutch Java guards his bones. And these were orphaned when leak was Far out from land when all the air was
 balm; The shipmen saw their faces as they hung, And sank in the glassy calm. These. in an orange sloop their father piled, Deck laden deep she sailed from Cadiz
 town; A black squall rose, she turned upon her side, Drank water and went down. They, too, shall sail. High names of alien
 lands
 Are in the dream, great names their fathers
 knew; Madras, the white surf rearing on her sands, Fen they shall breast it too. See threads of scarlet down fell Roa creep, When moaning winds rend back her vapor-
 ous veil; Wild Orinoco wedge like split the deep, Raging forth passion pale; Or blue berg at sunrise gliuering tall; Great as town adrift come shining on, With sharp spires, gem like as the mystical Clear city of St. John. -ExehanPe.

Why the Pews Are Empty.
[St. Louis Globe-Democrat.l

It is beyond dispute that, generally speaking, the pulpit of the present time is not equal to the demands of true re- ligious enterprise. The sermons, as a rule, are wanting in force, in interest, and in proper comprehension of the spir itual needs, as we'll as the intellectual diff hculties, of people now living on earth. Among all the thousands of ministers who hold forth every Sunday in this country, there are probably not a hun dred who are always sure of satisfactory audience, or always able to bring people to church as pleasure rather than a duty. The great majority of them preach to small congregations, mainly composed of women and children and those to whom church-going is sort of social habit :; and the results of their labors at the end of the year leave them substantially where they were twelve months before, if, indeed, they always do as well as that. 1t is not the people who are to blame for the fact that so many empty pews are to be found in all our churches They would readily and gladly fill all the vacant seats if they were assured that they would hear enter taining and profitable sermons. But the time has gone by for expecting people to be content with commonplace and monot- onous preaching. They must be sup- piled with something more engaging and inspiring or they will stay at home, how ever kindly disposed they may be toward religion in the abstract, and however so- licitous to promote religious influences in the world. The people will go to hear ministers cheerfully enough and in flas- tering crowds, if they will make sure to provide discourses worth hearing.

 and they made the initials H. H." fa-
 nous among readers of discernment, and
 drew from R. w. Emerson high praise, as the most remarkable work in Ameri- can poetry. The recurrence of verses of this same strain, like those of no one
 else, in the "Saxe Holm stories, was
 the chief reason for attributing those re- markahle tales to her, and it was inevit. ably perceived that they were in perfect agreement with the genius of many of the stories themselves. The most mysti- cal of these were Draxy Miller's Dowry," 1" \" The Elders Wife," and Tourmaline," {" which have not been forgotten by any of their readers. The series also included many simpler stories, and some as finely sympathetic presentations of New Eng. land life and character as have been written.
