Forget Your Cares.


One of the most serious losses in life
is incurred by those who carry over
into the Sabbath the cares and perplex-
tiles and business interests of the week.
Every one knows the effect Of good
nights rest upon his cares and troubles.
A sound sleep will dissipate the half of
them and give strength to carry the
other half lightly. Let the business
man or the care-laden take two nights
and one day of rest from them, and on
Monday morning he will rise like q
strong man eager for the battle. Ii to
this he add the cultivation on the Sab
bath of faith in God and willingness to
abide by His will, and in the contem-
platiOn of his higher possessions in the
Kingdom of God, and of the unlimited
strength which await him in the end
less future, he will find on Monday
that his youth is renewed without its
inexperience-th that he is young man
with an old mans wisdom. He shall
mount up with wings like the eagle.
The prophet did not mean to refer to
the wings of an eagle that were frayed
and weakened with incessant flight.
When Saturday night comes cast of
the labors of the week, like the heavy
oil stained boots; cast them aside, and
along with the implements of labor;
put on a fresh train of thought along
with the clean linen. Try this once
thoroughly, and notice how you feel
on Monday. Interior.

Amusing as Well as Instructive

Mr.. Guthrie once told a story which
was as suggestive of moral as it was
amusing. A friend of his. questioning
little boy, said: "o hen your father
and mother forsake you, Johnny, do
you know who will take you up?"
"Yes, SIR" said he. "And whoP"
said the friend. "The police" was
JOhnny's answer. Parents will do
well to consider the truth there was in
this reply. The parent who is too
much occupied. or too selfish to look
after the training of his child, need not
be surprised to see the child come to
serious harm. Turn him into the street
to find his companionship and pleasure,
because it costs time and patience and
money to furnish him attractions at
home, and if the police do not take him
up, it may be owing to official negli-
gence. Society, also, and the churches,
may be reminded that ii the number OF
bad men and bad women is not to
multiply in the future as in the past,
somebody must care for the forsaken
children of unchristian households. -

TRUE RELIGION.
The Sphere Of Christianity COextensivs

with Daily Life.
True religion is diffusive and extern
sive in its operations. ! see people
drawing lines continually, and saying:
$50 far is religious, and SO far is secu-
lar" What do you mean? The notion
is one which suits with the exploded
notions of sacred places, priests,
shrines and relics. l do not believe IN
it. Everything is holy to holy man.
To the pure all things are pure. To ii
man who seeks first the Kingdom of
God and His righteousness, his house is
a temple, his meals are sacrame nts, his
garments are vestments, every day is
holy day, and he himself is priest
and Il King unto God. The sphere OF
Christianity is coextensive with daily
life. / am not to say: II serve God
when stand in the pulpit; for that
might imply that wished to serve the
devil when my sermon was over. We
are not only to be devout at church,
and pious at prayer-meetings; but tn
be devout and Cody everywhere. Re-
ligion must not be like fine piece of
medieval armor, to be hung on the
wall, or only worn on state occasions.
No; it is a garment for the house, the
shop, the bank. Your ledgers and
iron safes are to be made by grace
"holiness unto the Lord''. Goodness
is for the parlor and the drawing-room,
the counting-house and the exchange.
1t can neither be put off nor on. 1t is
of the man and in the man IL it be
real. Righteousness is quality Of the
heart, and abides in the nature Of the
saved man as a component part of his
new self. He is not righteous who is
not always righteous. -Spurgeon.

They came according to agreement.
and after the sermon on the general in
vitation the eleven came forward and
knelt with others. When the services
were to be closed the minister said;
snow if any one present has anything
to say for or against the religion OF
Jesus Christ, let him speak his mind
freely and without any hesitation.
Not one of them rose, but remained
kneeling till all were dismissed. Ten
of them were converted, and one Of

one half per cent; nails, one cent per

During the late wal there were about
4, 900 articles on the tariff list; now there
are about !, 800, and the duty ranges from
five to two hundred per cent. ThsaVerage
duty in 1885 was forty-seven per cent:
The first direct tax was in 1898, and lasted
two years; the next in 1918; and the next
in 1862.
Many leading Democrats and some Re
