THE SUNDAY NEWSPAPER.

My convictions are decided against
the Sunday newspaper. In my judg-
ment, it meets no healthy demand of
the age or community. 1t is detri-
mental to the mental calmness and
sacredness of the Lords day. Men
are already too much worn and ex-
hausted by secular affairs six days,
and need to calm their minds and
bodies by reading the Bible and en-
gaging in the services of the church
whereas the Sunday newspaper units
the mind for the appropriate and pc
culiar duties of the Sabbath and con-
tinues the excitement and seculariza-
ton of the week. 1t introduces an
insidious and dangerous force in the
further secularization of the Lord s
day which is already seriously alarm
ing, Those engaged in getting out
the Sunday newspaper are deprived
of their right to the quietness and
rest of the holy day, which is already
abridged in getting out the Mondays
issue. And the newsboys, so otter
neglected and surrounded by tempta
tons, ought to be attending Sunday
school and the church, instead o
disturbing the quiet of the street
crying their papers. There is no de
mand for religious reading in tn
Sunday newspapers, as that deman
is fully met by the religious journal
published during the week and b
the large supply of religious books
Therefore, for these and other res
sons, can conceive of no good, BIT
of much evil, from the Sunday news
paper. In this statement I have lie
. entirely out of view the high and SUI
ficient ground of obligation to God
righteous commands and teaching
Remember the Sabbath day to ket
,r it holy. Req. W. II. d. Harper.

LONELY LABORERS.

Many Christians have to endure
the solitude of unnoticed labor.
They are serving God in a way
which is exceedingly useful, but not
at all noticeable. How very sweet
to many workers are those little cor
ners of the newspapers and maya
zines which describe their labors and
successes; yet some who are doing
what God will think a great deal
more of at the last never saw their
names in print. Yonder beloved
brother is Flooding away in coun-
try village; nobody knows anything
about him, but he is bringing souls
to God. Unknown to fame, the an
gels are acquainted with him, and a
few precious ones whom he has led
to Jesus know him we'll.
Perhaps yonder sister has class
in the Sunday school nothing strik-
ing in her or her class nobody
thinks of her as a remarkable work
err; she is a flower that blooms al
most unseen, but she is none the less
fragrant.
There is a Bible woman she is
mentioned in the report as making
so many visits week, but nobody
discovers all she is doing for the
poor and needy, and how many are
saved in the Lord through her instru-
mentality. Hundreds of God S
dear servants are serving him with
out the encouragement of mans ap-
proving eye, yet they are not alone 4;
the Father is with them.
Never mind where you work; care
more how you work; never mind
who sees if God approves. If he
smiles, be content. We cannot al
ways be sure when we are most use
full. 1t is not the acreage you SOW,
it is the multiplication which God
gives the seed which makes up the
harvest. You have less to do with
being successful than with being
faithful. Yonr main comfort is that
in your labor you are not alone. Fol-
God the Eternal One, who guides the
marches of the stars are with you.

Few orchards have the original
number of trees as planted without a
break. Nor is it generally best that
they should have. The vacant spac-
es are now probably so filed with
tree roots that young tree would
stand little chance. Instead of put
ting fifty cents IN new tree, draw
load OF manure where the missing
tree stood, so that its neighbors on
each side can get their roots at it
This extra attention will yield more
and better fruit from the trees nov
in bearing than can be got by plant
ing new ones. In fact, the creates
trouble with most orchards is tina
their owner has more trees than b
is able to properly care for.

"SEEK RELIEF IN PRAYER

In our troubles and trials we seek
relief but not all in the same way.
Some in them resort to the intoxi-
eating cup. A man of my acquaint-
ance, whose son was drowned, on his
home from the river from which the
llfeless body had been taken, called
at the public house for dram. He
sought thus to drown his sorrows.
Some seek to divert their minds by
foreign travel. Some fly to scenes
of pleasure to the ballroom or the
theatre. Some plunge more deeply
into the business and cares of life and
others engage more eagerly in literary
pursuits. Almost numberless meth
DDS are tried but the best of all is
that suggested by the heading of this
article. 1t is a resort to prayer. 1t
is in telling our griefs to God, and
seeking his grace. The little child is
an example to US in this regerd. In
its troubles, it runs to it's parent. 1t
flies to it's mother, and freely tells
her all its sorrws. The child of God,
in all his trials, should always resort
first of all to his Heavenly Father.
Turning away from all other sourc-
es of relief, he should go at once to
the " God of all comfort This is
his precious privilege. Here we are
all invited to come, and with the
assurance that we shall not come in
vain. " Cast thy burden upon the
Lord and he shall sustain thee. %
The Lord IS nigh unto all them
that call upon him, to all that call
upon him in truth" He is gracious
ly nigh unto them to hear their CRY
and to help them. Such has been
the experience of those who have
made the trial. Many can say with
the Psalmist: " called upon the
Lord in distress the Lord answered
me, and set me in a large place.
Such is the testimony of thousands.
They have thus tasted, and seen
that the Lord is good, and that bless
ed are all that put their trust in him
And so have they learned to make
him their "all in all" and to say:
"In every joy that crowns my days,
In every pain bear,
My heart shall find delight in praise,
| Or seek relief in prayer"

THE PILLAR OF LOVE.

In certain district in Russia there
is to be seen, in solitary place,
pillar with this inscription "Greater
love hath no man than this, that
man lay down his life for his friend"
That pillar tells a touching tale,
which many have heard. 1t was a
wild region, infested with wolves,
and as little party travelled along,
it soon became plain that these were
on their track. The pistols were
fired; one horse after another was
left to the ravenous wolves, till, as
they came nearer and nothing else
remained to be tried, the faithful
servant, in spite of the expostulation
of his master, threw himself in the
midst of them and by his own death
saved his master. That pillar marks
the spot where his bones were found !;
that inscription records the noble
instance of attachment. But there
is another, nohler still. There is
another pillar, and on it 1 read ::
"Herein is love, not that we loved
God, but that he loved us and sent
his Son to be the Precipitation for our
SINS" That pillar is the Blble-the
noble pillar of Scripture-written all
over with loving words and telling of
salvation. -Selected.

A little street waif was once at
the house of a great lady, and the
childish eyes that had to look so
sharply after daily bread were daz-
zled by signs of splendor on every
hand. ''Can you get everything you

of the mansion. eyes. [ think So"
was the reply. ''Can you buy any,
thing you'd like to have?'' The lady
answered, eyes" And the child,
who was of a meditative turn of

and said. wonderingly, "Dont you

found life ''dull," and pronounced
in the midst of luxery that all things

1t is recorded that there was once
a poor woman who greatly desired a
bunch of grapes from the kings con-
servatory for her sick child. She
took half crown and went to the
kings gardener and tried to purchase
the grapes, but was rudely repulsed.
A second effort, with more money,
met like results. 1t happened that
the kings daughter heard the angry
words of the gardener and the crying
of the woman and inquired into tho
matter. When the poor woman had
oil dher story, the princess said: "My
dear woman, you are mistaken; my
father is not a merchant but king
his business is not to sell but to
give" whereupon she plucked the
bunch from the vine and gently
dropped it into the woman's apron.
So the woman obtained as a free
gift what the labor of many days
and nights had proved unable to pro-
cure her. If it COMFORTS with the
character of an earthly prince thus
to give, how much more the Prince
of Glory to place in our hand the
gift of eternal life. Have you re-
ceived it ?-SeIected.

AN IMPORTANT LIQUOR LAW De-
cIsIoN.-The supreme court of Wis
consin has lately rendered decision
which has significant bearing on
the liquor laws. An agent for a
brewing firm in GAINESVILLE took or
ders for beer in local option county
and the circuit court convicted him
of selling liquor against the law. On
appeal, the supreme court reversed
| the court below and held that the
sale was not complete until the beer
was delivered to the railway compa-
nv in GAINESVILLE. The substance OF
the decision is that the sale was not
made in the county where the order
was taken. but in GAINESVILLE, where
the liquor was delivered, and that
therefore, was no violation of law
The effect of this decision is simpl,
to nulify the principle of local optior
and open the way for condition o.
affairs under which a brewer or dis
tiller. in single license county nigh
sell beer or whiskey by order al
over the state, even though the othe
counties had voted for prohibition.

THE STREET DIFFICULTIES IN DOVER.
The suit of J. Alex. Fulton VS.. the

decided that the town had the authority
to open the street free of damage from
Mary to Clara street, and that the
town had not allowed the proper dam
age or given the proper notice in rela-
tiOn to the condemnation of the other
land. The injunction prayed for by
Mr.. Fulton is made perpetual as far as
the land between Mary and Cecil street
is concerned Both sides will be dis
satisfied with the decision, and we
have no doubt that the case will be APP
pealed to the court of Errors and Ap-
peals. The town has to pay the entire
cost of the suit, having been beaten in
part, in the suit. The parties to this
suit, the town and Mr.. Fulton, had
better compromise this suit, or the
probability is, that the cost will be i'm
