There is no better illustration Of the re-
serve, the passionless transparency and
natyette Of the classic style Of narrative
than that which is given us in tho Acts Of
the Apostles; not the work Of recognized
classic author, but beautifully classic in its
pure objectivity, its absence Of personal
coloring. In that wonderful narrative
of paul's uhipwreCk the narrator closes
hia account OF an anxious night
with there words; "Then fearing lest
they should have fallen upon rocks,
they cast four anchors out oil the stern
and wished for the day." Fancy Q mod.
ern writer dealing with such a theme !
How he would enlarge on the raCking sus-
pense, the tortures OF expectation, en-
dured by the storm.tossed company
through the weary hours Of o night which
threatened instant destruction How he
would dwell on the inomentary dread Of
The shock which should shatter the irail
bark aud enguli the devoted crew, the
angry pillows hungering for their prey,
ewes strained to catch the first glimmer Of
returning light, etc. All Of which the
writer Of the Acts conveys In the single
phrase, "And they wished for the day."
Clear, tinimpassioned, impartial presen-
tation Of the subject, whether fact or hC.
ton, whether done In prose or verse, Is the
prominent feature OF the classic style.
The modern writer gives yod not 80 much
tue thing themselves as his impression on
them. You are compelled 10 see them
through his eyes-tllat is, through his
feelings aud reflections. The anCients
present them In their own light, without
colofing. They would seem TO have Dos.
sessod other powers Of seeing than the
modern, who, as Jean Paul says, stands
with an Intellectual spyglaSs behind his
own eyes. Certainly they possessed the
ART Of 60 placing their object as not 10 have
their own shadow fall Upon 1t.

even two days, but one simple day,
and in the love of man, try to live
that day Alright. Ask God repeated
ly to help you live it to his honor
and glory, and be assured He will
help you. Try to hold in check ev-
cry word that would wound a human
heart, and every thought that is un-
kind or unjust. Aim to inspire all
about you with the love of goodness
and of God. Throw as much real
Christian sunshine on the path of
your fellow travellers as possible.
Be faithful TO your covenanted vows,
and to every trust reposed in you.
This l know is a very simple creed,
but if followed faithfully it will lift
the shadows from the soul; gradual
ly you will emerge into the sunshine
of a joyful Christian life. While
there are mysteries deep beyond our
fathoming, yet God has made clear
as the MONDAY the truths needful to
save the soul and develop it in right
eousness. We get clearer light, not
so much by speculation as by living
up to the light we have. We need
not trouble ourselves about all of
the to-morrows, for the Master gives
us but one day at time, and the
secret of truly successful life lies
in using that one day well.-Chrts-
tan at Work.

The truth cannot be too often re-
peated, that no home can be rem
dered permanently happy or wretch
ed by mere circumstances that it is
not wealth, nor style, nor learning,
nor leisure, nor labor, which gives to
the household it's saving or ruinous
influences over the young lives that
spring up in its sacred circle. Clone
and temper as wise man has
said-good sense, human love, and
the grace of God-these only can in
sure happy home.
A parlor may be neat and delight
some, and filled with innumerable
suggestions of domestic felicity, even
though its owners are ignorant of the
latest devices of estheticism. No
flowers are brighter than the common
"hardy' plants which are in the reach
of all. No books are so full of in
tellectual riches for sturdy brain as
the dozen antiquated volumes which
hardly any old family is without.
No music is so sweet as the artless
carol of a happy heart. No boys or
girls are blither than those brought
up perhaps, on homely fare, but into
whose souls there is continually pour
ing through the avenue of every
sense the inestimable blessing of a
mother and fathers love.

DISCOURAGED.

81 get so discouraged in regard to
my Christian life. / do not seem to
be making any progress" Such is
the complaint we frequently hear
from professed Christians.
We wish, if possible, TO speak
helpful word to them. The fact
that you realize you are not making
progress, and are panied at your low
spiritual estate indicates clearly that
you are not spiritually dead, for if
this was the case you would feel no
pain. Death, for this world, at least,
marks the limit of suffering. The
fact that our bodies suffer PAIN is an
indication that nature is making an
effort TO rid itself of some evil, At
death ali pain ceases, because nature
has given up the task of righting the
system. Pain can only be where life
is. So while we are sorry for you,
yet we also rejoice, for you are not
"past feeling" and there is hope of
your spiritual recovery.
Do not try to believe too much or
to do too much at once. Simplify
both faith and life as much as posi-
BILE. Do not sail. around among the
clouds after feeling, but come down
to the earth, and try and live sim
pie, sincere Christian life. Do the
duty that lies next to you, and do it
to the best of your, ability. Above
all things do it in sweet and gen.
tie spirit. AS to faith, there are
some things you do not and can not
understand, nor is 1t necessary that
You should understand Them Com
fort yourself with the thought that
you know as much about these ''deep
mysteries" as any one else, for after
all, the people who write so pro-
foundly about them are as much ir
the dark as yourself. They have
done some sublime guessing, that i:
all and they may be as wide of the
mark as the physicians were of thu
bullet that took our Garfield home.

PARAGRAPHS FROM SERMONS PREACHED
IN INDIANAPOLIS.

Here is my theology; it is all ]
need. If you want to do good God
will help you to do good, and if you
want to do bad the devil will help
you. That's enough theology for
any body.
/ have heard of churches which
claimed to be the only Church of
God. The old hard shells do 1t
believe. / don't know how they are
up here, but if they are the same as
they are down in Georgia, the Lord
has turned over the whole business
to mighty ignorant crowd.
Sympathy is much better than
dignity. Eve seen some old preach
er get up in his pulpit, and he looks
like he is five miles away, and he has
got dignity enough to fill two worlds.
Dignity is the starch of a shroud.
When 1 die and am lying stiff and
cold in my coffin, I'll have as much
dignity as any body, but l am never
going to be dlgnifed till do die.
We have got to learn that money
will help man to heaven just like it
will help him to New York. l can
get to New York city without a cent
but 1 will have to walk every step,
and beg my bread along the road.
You can get to heaven without a
cent, but you will find Jordan a hard
road to travel.
A man who lives under the cook
stove and sleeps in the pantry, be-
longs to the animal tribe. A man
who lives in the library, with the
finest authors, is an intellectual man.
A man who walks arm in arm with
God is a spiritual man.
1t is not the mysteries of the Bible
that bother me. 1t is the Ten Com
mandments. 1t is hard to live up to

The cabbage worm, the larvae of
the common butterfly, may be easily
destroyed in several ways. That of
manipulating, if begun before the
first brood has passed into it's per-
feet state, Is effectual. We have
also found that pyrethrum powder
mixed with five times its bulk of
plaster and busted into the center of
the leaves with sulphur bellows is
certain destruction to every one of
them. The application of insecti-
cides in liquids to the cabbage has
not been satisfactory on account of
the peculiar structure of the leaf sur
face, which allows the water to fall
off in drops and not adhere to any
part of it. Paris green is unsafe to
use after the leaves have become
over four inches in diameter.
T. S. Fletcher of Felchville, VT, has

at Columbus, Ohio. it was voted to
furnish. free of charge, to farmers
and fruit growers, specific directions
how to make Arnold's simple, cheap
fruit evaporation. This evaporator is
used in preserving fruit for market
or home use. Evaporated fruit holds
the highest position in market, and
commands more than double the
price of ordinary dried fruit. Apples
can be evaporated in two hours, corn
or peaches in about the same time.
The evaporation can be made by any
one at trif1ing expense, and is very

In the process of drying grass into
