Of Importance to Mariners.

The Lighthouse Board gives notice
that on May 7th, 1886, the following
changes will be made in the lighting
of Delaware river:
New Castle Range Lights-The front
beach of the New Castle range lights
will be moved thirty feet to the west
ward of its present position and on Il
line at right angles to the present range
line. The effect of this change will be
to throw the range line farther from
the shoals off Finn's Point and nearer
to Fort Delaware. The range line can
be followed safely, but must be closely
held. If necessary to leave it there is
more room on the westward side, above
Fort Delaware. As Il day-mark the
tower will show detached from the
dwellings. This tower, with the tower
of the rear light marks the range line.
Reedy Island-The red cut of the
Reedy Island light will be extended so
as to come in sight sooner than hereto
fore. This gives more room for turn
ing before reaching the intersection OF
the Port Penn and Finn's Point ranges
To vessels bound up, with the Port
Penn ranges ON, Reedy Island light will
change to red when three-quarters of q
mile below this point of intersection
For vessels bound down, with the
Finn's Point ranges on, Reedy ISLAND
light will change to red when five
eights of mile from this point. The
red sector covers the eighteen-foO
ridge shoal Inpassing from one rang'
to the other the edge of the red sectO
marks the best water.

customary upon such occasions. The
happy couple took passage on the Nor

Episcopalian Railroads.

Rev. Sam Jones, in his sermon on
" Religious Railroads gives an anus
ing hit on EpiscOpalians. He says:
"There is a little branch road that
starts out to Desire. 1t is a nice little
town-a pleasant little place; but it is
at the end of that little road. You can
get on at Desire, and it's about an
hours run to Confirmation and you
get off there, and you do not go any
where much. You can walk back
next day and you've not been any
where much. Or, there is another lit
tie branch road. 1t is a sort of little
short affair that don't go far. You can
get on at Resolution. That is a right
nice little tOwn-a great many live
there; and you can get off just this
side of Repentance; you have got to
walk across there apiece it don't con-
meet with the main line. Brother
whenI start for glory, I want to get on
God Almighty's grand old trunk line
and check my baggage clear through
on a limited ticket, and run square
Through to glory"

The Great Question.

The New York Sun estimates that
there are $4,000 workingmen now on
strike in this country, and says:
1.-The most remarkable fact about
these strikes is that they occur at a
time when the wages of labor are very
much better than they have ever been
before. There has been no reduction
of wages, and the wOrkingman who
earns 81, 80 or 50. a day, as we'll as the
skilled workman who earns 50 or 81, is
able to procure for himself more of the
necessaries of life than he has ever
been able to procure for his wages be-
fore. All articles of food and of appar-
ell were never so cheap as now, and
they seem to be gradually becoming
cheaper. Thus wOrkingmen are really
better Off than they have ever been, and
as for actual pressure and destitution
they have never had less apparent
cause to demand higher wages or tC
strike work for any other reason thar
they have nOw."

He thought if his mother could make
a needle out of a crOwbar, he could
learn the Chinese characters.
The pronunciation is very difficult
for foreigners, on account of the differ
ent tones and the aspirated sounds.
Several characters may be represented
by the same letters in English, each
having a different meaning, according
to its tone. We missionaries all have
more or less trouble in giving the
tones correctly. We have heard of
one gentleman who had so much diff
Guilty that he got down on his knees
and looked into his teachers mouth, to
see how he did it.
The peculiar language is only one of
many obstacles to the spread of the
gospel in China but, in the face of all
these, the truth is making sure, if slow,
progress. There are earnest Christians
here who will brave persecution and
death rather than renOunce the doc
trine of salvation through Christ.
The field of work in China and
other foreign lands is ever widening.
The suffering of millions, so needy that
/ they do not even feel their need, is
calling loudly upon those who have
the Light. Can any one afford not to
have a part in the great work that
is to be done in the coming years?
But some one asks, How shall
know if l am doing my part? More
and more it seems to me the answer tC
that question is, Do faithfully, cheer
fully, ioyfully the work to-day, be
lieving with childlike faith that it i:
God-given work, and he will tell you
when he wants you to do other WORK
or 90 to other lands. Do not let the
enemy of souls entice you to think yoI
will be richer for Withholding anything
for Christ. He gave his life to pur
chase eternal life for you, and in hi
: great battle against sin, he will gladl.
welcome every volunteer, and give t.
F each a place in his army either a
home or in foreign lands. The riches
earthly treasure or the rarest persona
gift can never yield their pOssessOrs 5
much pleasure as when they are laid
without reserve, at the Saviour's feet
Praying that God may lead each on
of you into the JOY and freedom c
fearless trnst,
, / am sincerely yours,
KATE G.. Woodruff.

An idea of the relative frequency of
labor disputes and strikes can be form
ed from the censusreport on that subject
by Joseph d. Weeks. In the 1880, the
numbers of strikes and lOckOuts in the
United States was 762. But this year
a mere review of those mentioned in
the newspapers shows that the number
was much greater during the first four
months of the year. In 1880 about
100000 men appear to have been en-
gagged, estimating the strikes of which
the number was reported, and the loss
to the men in wages was over Sl3,OOO,-
600. This year things are moving at
rate which involves to the working
population loss of over $40, 900, ,OOC
yearly, distributed among 6OOIOOC
| workers.

The great remedy known as Celery,
Beef and Iron, is a gentle stimulant as
nutritive, and all who have used it pro-
nounce it to have been taken with ex-
cellent results, especially when taken
for brain trouble, nervous prostratiOn,
or disorders of the stomach. Celery as
a cure for nervous affection is invalu-
able. Beef is the most nutritious and
invigorating to all meats, and as tonic
for the blood and food for the brain,
there is nothing better than pyrOphos-
phate of iron.
