Oh the faiatka transfer company, In

On Sunday night we understand that
the Rev. j. j. w. Place will give a very
interesting illustrated sermon on the
First Human Family after the fall. The
church will be darkend and the illustra-
tions will be thrown by a sciopticon
upon a screen in plain view of the entire
audience. Scientific and historical lee
lures have long since demon
strated the utility Of illus
trations and we do not see why re-
ligious thought can not be more inter
esting and profitable by the same means.
In fact some Of these most efficient pull
pit men in our large cities are appealing
to the eye as well as the ear by pictures
of Bible scenes introduced in their SER
mons or addresses. A full house and an
appreciative audience will doubtless
encourage additional efforts to photo
graph Gods truth on the minds Of our
citizens and strangers stopping in our
city.

said well-known lawyer, "the famous
backwoods preacher, Bascom, what was the
secret of his power, as an orator how he
contrived to sway large numbers ofmen to
his will. First he answered, Il bring
them close to me and to each other. Leave
no empty benches between you and your
audience. The electric spark will not pass
across gap from one man to another"
These ideas may seem fancful to some Of
our practical readers but there is solid
basis OF truth under them all. Physicians
usually bring all their skill to bear in curing
the ailments of the body, and neglect the
mind, which effects every part of the body.
There is a human magnetism which all are
apt to overlook in our materia medica.
Handwriting women in the lonely farms or
or isolated villages of this country often find
themselves growing irritable and nervous.
They donot need tonics or moral discipline.
They need friction with unfamiliar minds,
new ideas, novel scenes, just as their lungs,
after using upall the oxygen in close room,
need the air of out doors. Young girls are
too apt, voluntarily, to force themselves in
to this state, disappointed in natural long
ings for congenial companion, they resolve
to live alone, and shut themselves into their
own souls. The resources are not sufficient
to keep off famine. "Only God or brute
can dwell in solitude" says the wise old
German

an army of from 10000 to 100000 men.
Then, too, Wellington is said to have bla-
ted Cup guards, and at them" to his troops
on the field of Waterloo. The noise of bat
tie is terrific, and one human voice could
not make itself heard for any great dis
tance. Suppose Il battle is in progress.
The infantry is firing. The artillery is in
action. Solid shot and three inch bolts fly
screaming through the air. Shells are
bursting. The hum Of bullets is loud and
steady The men are cheering. The wound
ed shrek as they fall. The dying groan.
And we are asked to believe that a general
officer spoke to his men in the midst of this
deafening uproar, and inspired them. He
could speak, and speak, and if his voice did
not have the compass of fifty foghorns he
might as we'll whistle into his boot for all
the inspiration his troops could draw from
him.

"Suppose," he thought, II were really ly-
ing under here now would, it be best for
me-for anybody else in the world?" A
gread sadness filled his heart, which was
not wont to soften under mere sentimental
fancies. His remembrance flew to Susie,
his little wife, whom he so truly loved, and
fingered about her tenderly, yet with a
yearning pain. If she were standing in
this place now, as he was, and reading his
name, and the date of his death, not doubt
ing but that the record was true, how would
she feel about it? Would she be very,
very grieved, or would the tears she might
shetland she was so gentle and kind, he
thought that she would weep-spring less
from sense of personal loss than from
remorsetul pity for his fate, knowing that
he had died, as he had lived, unloved?
He sat down and reflected, with bowed
head. He was not without discernment,
this plain, quiet man, and had found out
long ago-or guessed at, praying it might
only be a guess-what his wife had hoped he
might never know. His deep tenderness for
her, undemonstrative, yet growing day by
day, made him forgive her short comings
and blame himself alone for the result
of their marriage. He knew her to be
innocent and good, without one thought
of guile. Was she to be reproached if she
had mistaken her duty and obeying its die
tates according to her belief, done him the
heaviest wrong it was in her power to in
flict upon him:
"It was all my fault-all my fault" He
said this to himself again and again. II
knew they were in trouble. / could have
helped them out of it could have been
generous-why did 1 demand reward ?"
And then he remembered how old Dean
had hnted at his willingness to give him
his daughter, almost before any advance on
his own part had been made. And it was
some comfort to recall the fact that he
himself had really supposed the girl to be
quite heart free, quite untrammeled, though
he had afterwards found out by chance
that in this he was mistaken.
He put aside the thought then of his
wrongs, and dwelt on his own misdoing.
"It was all my fault" he kept on saying;
and then arose the question, "How can 1
eXpiate this fault"

TOBACCO AND ITS NIRTUEs.-ln spite OF
all that has been said against it by fervid
anti-tobacconists, pure tobacco is an excel
lent remedial agent; but it must be abso-
lutely pure. No poisonous decoctions must
eat into its substance or change its nature.
Used in proper way, to relieve neuralgia
pains, or applied in various affections under
the advice of skilled physician, it is
valuable medicine. Care, however, is to be
taken that the patient is not nicotized. To-
bacco also acts, when pure, as among the best
of sedatives; and the Indian weed, in spite
of the diatribes against it, forms valuable
addition 10 the pharmacopp. 1t has the
authority Of great names. Milton solaced
himself ongoing to bed, with pipe and
glass of water. Sir Isaac Newton smoked.
Burton, in his ANATOMY of Melancholy"
pronounces the weed "a sovereign remedy
to all diseases-a virtuous herb, if it be we'll
qualified, opportunely taken and medicinal
ly used"

TO BE CONTINUED.

A HOPELESS MISUNDERSTANDING the
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher's many accom-
plishments, not the least is his ability as a
story teller. 10 much amused listeners he
recently told this one about New York
drummer. a typical "knight of the grip
sack" was detained at q small town in west
ern New York awhile ago where revival
meeting was in progress. He had met a
party of convivial friends during his stay
there, and had what is popularity known as
"a load on" Nevertheless he drifted into
the revival meeting and took seat we'll up
in front. 1t was rather close in the church
and the warm air was conducive for sleep.
The drummer yielded to the drowsy god
and after nodding little sank into a pro-
found slumber and slept through the minis
ter's rather long and dry discourse. The
audience sang a hymn and the drummer
slept on. Then the evangelist began his ad-
dress, and wound up his tervid appeal with
this request:
"Will all of you who want 10 go to heav-
en- please rise?"
Every one in the church except the sleepy
drummerarose. When the evangelist asked
them to be seated one of the brothers in the
same pew as the sleeping drummer acciden-
tally brushed against him as he sat down.
The drummer rubbed his eyes, and parti-
ally awake heard the last portion of the
evangelist's request, which was:
"Now l want all of you who want to go
to hell stand up"
The drummer struggled a little, leaned
forward unsteadily and rose from his seat in
a dazed sort of way. n sort Of suppressed
laugh he heard from some of the younger
people, and an expression of horror he
noticed on the faces of some of the older
ones. Steadying himself against the rail he
looked at the evangelist an instant and
then said:
"Wcll, parson, l don't know just exactly
what we're voting on, but you and l seem
to be in hopeless minorty."- York

KEEPING A GOOD NAME.--Folly has
hardly another form so Objectionable as that
ofcarelessness, real or apparent, about ones
reputation. When young man behaves AS
if he were willing to be believed ''fast," he
may be guitless of any real disposition to-
wards dissi patton, but he cannot complain
if the more desirable of his associates grad
ually withdraw themselves from intimacy
with him. When young lady, no matter
how innocent of anything worse than de-
termination to amuse herself at all hazards,
condescends to tlirt with gentlemen, or to
indulge in bosterous behaviour in public
places with other girls, she must not be sur
prised if, before long, she becomes aware of
less heartiness in the greetings Of the &C.
quaintances whose society she prizes most,
receives fewer invitations from anybody,
and at last perceives with painful clearness,
that she is actually, even if undemonstra-
lively avoided, except by them whom she
now does not wish to meet.
Parents are often to blame for not guard
ing their children more carefully from un-
desirable companions, and from forming
classes and dangerous social habits, but in
many cases their remonstrances are in vain,
and they have the grief of witnessing the
evil which they cannot help. Young men
and women must be allowed to decide many
things for themselves, even if they choose
wrongly. If they will not heed good ad-
vice, they must be taught by bitter expe-
rience; and the saddest fact connected with
the subject, is that it is so hard to recover
ones credit, even after one has seen the
great blunder which has been made, and is
heartily in earnest to correct it. 1t is no
easy matter for young man to live down
a bad reputation, and it is far more difficult
for a young woman. Time and patience
and earnest endeavor usually will do it,
however, although memories of it and allu-
sions to it may rise up to plague one occa-
sionally for many years.
BALKAN CAVE DwELLERS.-Inhabi
cave dwellings are found in the Balkan
Peninsula, and also in such a cultivated
place as Saxony. They are in the neigh
borhood of Haberstadt, quite close to the
village of Langenstein. Here in a sand
stone hill about a dozen caves have been
dug which are used as dwellings. They
have different rooms, light and dark, as
we'll d. chimneys, windows and doors, and
are said to be very dry and habitable. The
writer of the account, physician, says
that he found tire inhabitants quite COM
Portable, and that some of them had lived
there for more than 80 years without suffer-
ing from any evil effect to their health
