the Editor of THE UNIvERsALIsT. 1T is
said, out of the abundance of the heart
the mouth speaketh." Judging from this
standard it is very evident that the spirit
of Universalism is rapidly finding its way
into the hearts OF the people. The marked
change in language used in prayers and
addresses in religious meetings is an evil
dence of this. 1 attended, June 10, the
first day of the semi annual session Of the
Champaign County Sunday School Con-
vention at North Lewisburg. This body
does not practice the exclusive spirit of
the State Convention, but accepts dele
gates from all Sunday schools. Be.
lieving it is right to join hands for the
spread of the gospel whenever possible,

felt the presence of the blessed Saviour
who seemed to say to us for these chill

forbid them not, for Of such is the King

thankful to our ladies and the BUSY

for the piece that was spoken.

New York Sun: College instruction
in journalism would be very much like col
lege instruction in agriculture. There
has never been an agricultural school in
any part of the world that was worth
laughing at, and there is not now. In
this country they have pretty generally
gone out, but we believe they still keep
one or two in Germany; yet they are use
less concerns doomed to early extinction;
and when they are gone, there will be no
reason to be sorry for it. And if schools
of journalism should be started, they
would come to the same end.

for the opposer." The proof-texts on
which the doctrine of endless punish
ment is supposed to rest, are here exam
med and shown conclusively not to teach
this dogma. The discourses of which it
is composed are twelve in number, and
devoted to the discussion of the most
noted texts which are adduced to support
endless punishment. In the opening
discourses the doctrine is shown to be
unreasonable, opposed to God, unscrip-
tural; and He'll, the Second Death, BIAS
phemy against the Holy Ghost, R;oh
Man and Lazarus, and Everlasting Dam
nation are among the topics discussed
To all who would understand the real
meaning of the old proof-texts, this sharp

prevails, it will do ready execution. Ad-

UNIvERSALISM OF THE LORDS
Prayer. BY Rev. J. G. Adams, ID. d
16mo. 133 pages. 30 cents.
This volume on the Lords Prayer diff
fers from all others on the subject in
making the Universalism of the prayer
the prominent feature of discussion. By
"Universalism" DR.. Adams means some
thing more than the adaptation of; the
prayer to ell classes and conditions of
mankind; he means, to give his own
words, "the principles on which the
prayer is based, the essential truths which
it involves, viz: the Divine Paternity;
the perfection of the Divine Law and the
righteousness of the Divine Administra-
ton; the allegiance which all souls owe
to it, and the assurance that, by the di-
vine power, and in accordance with divine
love, all souls will become the obedient
subjects Of this administration. The
central purpose Of the volume, therefore,
is to show the doctrinal teachings of the
prayer as in harmony with the principles
Of the Universalist faith. The several
sections of the prayer are taken up and
discussed with this purpose clearly in
view, it's divine statements illustrated by
other passages of Scripture, its principles
elucidated, and the prayer, as a whole,
revealed as a concise summary of the
doctrines on which our church is based.
DR.. Adams has done his work in an adj
mirable manner; and while enforcing our
positive religious ideas, he does not dog
matize Extensively. His book can be read
with pleasure even by those who dissent
from his conclusions. Address orders to

Miss Moore, of "The Makers OF Histo-
ry," said:
All nations are hero-worshippers. In
every age the great man stands tor the
people. The great man is a fact and
must be accounted for. Is there within
him some original power2 No. Before
the great man makes he must be made.
While we would not deny the influence
of strong individual character; while we
would not reduce history to an exact sci
ence of the masses, yet we hold that the
great figures of history represent the
character Of their own age, and embody
the spirit of their nations past. History
has its philosophy. Wars, deeds and
men-these are not the only facts. The
forces behind them are no less real. Such
hidden fact is the unwritten history Of

The Horseback Cure.

There is saying among the Russians that man who is fond of his horse will not grow old early. The Arab and tho Cossack are examples of the truth of the proverb. They generally live long, en joy robust health and have no use fo, liver pads and blue pills. That vigorous octogenarian, David Dudley Field, tells us that he attributes his remarkably vii tality to the habit of horseback riding, and if the truth were known, it would be doubtless appear that our sturdiest old men are those who have been fond oi the saddle. The taste for equestrian sports and exercise which has lately made such progress in Brooklyn is, therefore, hopeful and healthful sign. It is moi mere freak of fashion, but a develop ment in the direction of rational enjoy. ment and an assurance that the rising generation will be less of an indoor and more of an outdoor people. It means less headache hereafter, better capacities, stronger lungs, rosier cheeks, brighte, eyes, sounder sleep, happier spirits, and total oblivion of that organ which, ac cording to Sidney Smith, keeps men 6 good deal lower than the angels-the liver Brooklyn Eagle

 William Warren tells a delicious story about St. Louis man who went East last summer, and hunted up the poet Whittier. He found the quiet old Qua ker poet trying to hide from civilization in a farmhouse near Nahant. He had gone there to escape just such bores as the St. Louis man was.
 At first he declined to see the visitor, saying that he was not feeling strong, but the Missouri man was so persistent that at last Whittier yielded, and he was ad- mitted. He bounced upon the poet, and nearly shook his arm from the socket. He declared that he adored the poets works-in fact, he read nothing else.
 He asked Whittier to write his name 8 few hundred times on a sheet of note pa per, that he might distribute the auto graphs among his friends, and it was all the poet could do to keep the impetuous visitor from cutting the buttons from his coat to carry away as mementos.
 "And all the time," said Whittier pa thetically as he told his adventure, Che called me Whitaker. "-Y Youth's Conapaa,

'sI was tramp for several years" :" said O buggy washer at one of the livery sta, bles the other day, 'and might have been on the road yet but for the circum- stance which deprived me of this left leg at the knee. A tramp with wooden leg would be nowhere, while get around the stables at fair gait"
 "What was the circumstances2"
 ''Well, seven or eight of us were tramping together through the oil regions of Pennsylvania, and one day one of the gang stole can out of shed in the woods. It contained nitro -glycerine, but none of us knew the article then. He carried it for about an hour, when we all bunked down in the shade for noon- day nap. Some of us were half asleep, and we were all packed together under one tree, when the man picked up a stone and began hammering at the can. I was looking at him out of one eye, and I was wondering whether the can held oil or lard, when all at once the vaults of Heaven fell to earth with crash Half an hour later, when came to, I was lying in the bushes 200 feet from the tree, and my foot, ankle and leg were a mass of pulp"
 "There had been an explosion?"
 "You bet! There was hole in the ground into which you could have dumped cottage, and the big tree was heap of kindling-wood. Out of the eight of us five could not be found, and I suffered the least injury of any of the wounded. All that was gathered to- gether to represent five men were some bits of clothing and leather-not over two quarts. That was a corker on me. Whenever I see stray can lying around I lift my hat, take circle to the right ol left, and pensively observe: Not any to-day, thank you-Pve been therep "- Detroit Free Press.
