TEMPERANCE AND INEBRIETY.

DIR. Rush, of Philadelphia, in 1870,
urged that inebriety is disease and
should be studied as such. In 1926, a
temperance society was organized in
Boston, followed by similar organize
ticn in New York in 1928. The Wash
ingtonian societies sprang into existence
in 1910. This movement was greatly
promoted by the labors of Father Mat
thew, john B. Cough, and Neal Dow.
The Maine liquor law was enacted in
1851. In 1852 the first asylum for the
medical care and treatment of inebri-
ates was projected by DIR. 1. Edward
Turner, whose efforts eliminated in
the opening Of the New York State
Hospital, in which, during its brief ex-
istence of fourteen years, 2,344 inebri-
ates were treated. In 1859 a similar
hospital was started in Boston, of which
DR.. Albert Day is the superintendent,
and it is now known as the Washing
tonian Home. In the past twenty i've
years, it has cared for 5000 patients.
The Binghamton asylum, in fifteen
years, received 1000 cases. An inebri-
ate asylum for women in the State of
Connecticut will, when completed, con-
tain 800 rooms. In 1870, the Ameri-
can association for the care of inebri-
ates was organized. OF thirty asylums
for inebriates in the United States,
twenty-six survive; and under the in
spiration of a Christian civilization,
over 1000 temperance coffee and lodg-
ing-rooms and sailors homes, where no
liquor is sold, have been opened in this
country-most of them under the au-
spices of the Women's Christian Tenn
perance Union.
For the above facts, we acknowledge
our Indebtedness to the paper of DR..
Frederick Homer, of Marshall, Virgin
ia, read before the Naval Medical So
ciety.
DR.. Horner advocates the establish
ment of special hospital for the treat
ment of inebriates in tie navy. He
says: cat least one of the various naval
hospitals now appropriated for the treat
ment of the sick and wounded might
be jldiciously set apart for the special
care, relief, and cure of the unfortunate
victims Of inebriety of the American
naval service. Journal of Charities.

STUDYING THE CLASSICS.

The opposition to the study of the
ancient classics, so far as / have been
able to read the essays of recent writers
on the subject, is in reality an opposi-
ton to certain unhappy methods of
teaching them. No man who has learn
ed to read Homer or Demosthenes in
any measure as he would read the best
English or German authors, has ever
regretted it. No man who has ever
learned, through the knowledge of the
Greek language, to appreciate in any
measure the poetry or oratOry or phil
osophy of Greece has grieved over the
hours spent in gaining that knowledge
do not myself believe that any such
man to the end of time will ever have
such grief or regret, or will be other
wise than thankful that his mind was
thus lifted above the one work of his
daily life. The disputes about educa-
ton which have filled the air for the
last few years, we may well remember
are not yet ended. 1t will be a strange
thing in the worlds history if in this
regard the permanent future does not
find its fountain of life in the perma-
nent past.-President Dioigh.

cEL1BAcY IN THE RoM1sH PRIESTHOOD.

CELIBACY IN THE R0MIsH PRIESTHOOD.
In the primitive Christian Church
the state Of celibacy began to be extoll-
ed as holier than matrimony as early as
the second century. The early fathers
especially commended it, and cited the
example of st. Paul as showing that it
was, for the clergy, the better condi-
ton. StfIl there was no law or uni
formity of opinion on the subject, and
it was not until the fourth century that
even the higher clergy began generally
to live in celibaey. Near the close of
this century Pope Siricius forbade all
priests to marry, and all who had mar
ried previous to ordination were COM
manded to put away their wives. The
council Of Tours, 566, ordered that all
priests and deacons who persisted in
retaining their wives should be sus-
pended from Office for year, and the
Emperor Justinian declared all chill
dren born to clergyman after his ordi-
nation to be Legitimate and incapable
of inheritance. The Eastern Church,
on the other hand, always opposed this
doctrine, and the council of CONSTANT
nople, in 692, condemned it as hereti-
cal. The orthodox Greek Church has
therefore always sanctioned the mar
riage of priests. The opposite doctrine,
however, was only established in the
Romish Church after many orders and
interdictions, extending over several
centuries. At last, in the eleventh
century, it was ordered that any priest
living with wife should be excommu-
nicated. Even this not being regarded
as sufficient, Pope Gregory VII. finally
carried the point by deposing all mar
ried priests, and accommodating all
laymen who upheld them in the exer-
else of their spiritual functions. This
decree met with violent opposition in
all countries, but Gregory succeeded in
carrying it out with the utmost rigor,
and thus the celibacy of the Roman
Catholic clergy was at last established,
and has since continued, both in theory
and practice. Inter Ocean.

THE CITY OF CAIN.

The Signs of the Zodiac have come
down to us from the very earliest times.
We know now from a very valuable
tablet in the British Museum, that the
Chaldeans received the names and the
signs of the Zodiac from peoples still
more ancient than themselves. The
sign of the third month, as with our
selves, is 1.-The sign of the twins" the
Gemini, but the Chaldean word by
which it is known means "the month of
brickmaking." At once the meaning
and the sign are connected by the Bible
narrative, which associates the build
ing of the first city and the murder of
his brother by the man who built it.
This notion is far too unnatural to have
any origin other than historical. The
murder of brother and the building
of city are two thoughts too far apart
ever naturally to have come together.
1t could only have been an actual occur
renee which brought them into coinci-
dence. Not only do the Zodiac sign of
the third month and its Chaldean name
bear witness to the truth of the Bibli-
cal narrative, but, as NJ. Lsnormant has
pointed out, the voice OF this witness is
heard speaking often from the earliest
histories of most peoples, just where
the phantom forms of myths begin TO
mix with the more solid personages who
people the domain of history there
you often find a city founded by hero
who had taken his brothers. life. Ro-
mulus killed his brother Remus as he
laid the foundation of mighty Rome.
Similar stories are connected with the
foundation of the Temple of Capitoline
Jupiter, AID of the Citadel at Argos.
But all these stories are more or less
envelOped in the garments of myth.
But read the same story, only put at
date still farther back than any of them,

WHAT THE LORD WILL NOT DO.

HE retaineth not his anger forever,
because he delighteth in mercy" Mi
cab vii, IS. "He will not always chide;
neither will he keep his anger forever. !"
Ps. Gill, 8. ''For the Lord will not cast
off forever; but though he cause grief,
yet will he have compassion according
to the multitude of his tender mercies;
for he doth not affljct willingly, nor
grieve the children of men," Lam. iii,
81. "For his anger endureth but a
moment" Ps. Xxx, s.. 81 will not
contend forever, neither will l be al
ways wroth, for the spirit should fail
before me, and the souls which have
made" lisa. lviii, Is.
Such is little of the evidence in the
Scriptures against the doctrine of end
less misery. When men say that God
will always bs wroth-that he will con-
tend forever-they contradict the plain
teachings of the Bible. 1t is high time
men had ceased to make void the word
of God through their traditions. But
the time is coming, when they will not
have the hardihood to array themselves
against the promises of the Almighty.
How impious to affirm that God will
always chide, when he declares repeat
eddy that he will not ! Let Universal
lists still persevere in indicating the
character of God from the foul asper-
sions of misguided men. We have a
great work to perform; thousands are
groaning under the CALLING chains of
errors cropping their way mid the dark
ness of heather superstition. Shall we,
that have the glorious light of the Cos
pei, be lukewarm and Indifferent =? New
er neverl
"Shall we whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high
Shall We to men benighted,
The lamp of life deny?
Salvation salvation!
The joyful sound proclaim,
Till earth's remotest nation
Shall hear Messiah's name."

This wonderful man went with such a

The man Goethe was more wonderful than

himself.

every man not to worship him but to
execrate him. He would not be God,
but fiend, and it is hoped there would
always be
rant in
His everlasting face and tell him that

But such, friends, is not the character
of God. God is love, and because he is
love he has decreed that inevitable hell
of consequence which no man can es-
cape until he give up his wrong doing
and seek the way of life eternal. That
is the hell of reality-the inward hell of
remorse and fear that for the guilty
soul fills the daytime with dread and
the night with unrest.
Rejecting the vindictive hell of the
ology, we affirm this inevitable hell of
consequence, because it is the teaching
of the New Testament f; because it is
in harmony with that law which is at
the basis of all true philosophy and
science. Although we believe it will
continue beyond the grave, we cannot
think it will last forever, for we have
faith to believe that in the great strug-

awaits the good, and the promise is
given that at the last in willing obedi-
