The Bells of Japan.

The bells of Japan are among its
loveliest possessions. One of the
sweetest of them rang out many
times every day into the waiting air,
in this PARKWAY little city. Its tone
was intensely thrilling and pathetic.
The bells are not sounded by clap
per within, but are struck from the
outside by a sort of wooden arm, or
battering-ram. Being withdrawn to
the proper distance and released. it
strikes the bell once-and the strokes
are allowed to succeed one another
only with a dignifed and stately reg
ularity. Tradition says the finest
bells have much silver in their COM
position, which may account for their
deep and wonderful sweetness.
whether this be so or not, the bells
make profound impression upon all
sensitive or musical organizations,
heretofore accustomed to the more
discOrdant church-be of a newer
civilization.
And never did the lovely temple
bell in Shirakawa ring out so sadly
and deliciousIy as one night when
great fire laid waste a portion of the
city. Thirty or forty houses made
fine blaze for two or three hours, and
we watched 1t from the castle wall
with pity and interest. The crack
ling of the flames as they licked up
one little matched roof after another,
was terribly audible; so, too, were
the helpless cries and shouts of the
surrounding crowd-while the red
cinders were whirled far aloft, and
fell even around us. But through
the confusion and tumult, the calm
bell rang out its indescribably beauti-
full note-in quicker succession than
usual, but losing none of its dignity
and sweetness, for all the discordant
sounds so near.

Injudicious Charity.

He who sells all he has and gives
to the poor, may, if he is very badly
eaten up with greed for money, disci-
pline himself in the right direction,
but in selling all he has deprived him.
self of the means of self-support in
sickness and endangered the care of
his family. But all this subjective
wrong might be perpetuated to curb
a grasping spirit through the loss of
property. That, however, which he
had no right to do he has done. He
has pauperized the poor. The evil
inflicted upon scores, and perhaps
hundreds, is in their lessening of
self-respect, the cultivation of indo-
lence, the enfeebling of their already
weak determinations, the putting fur
Their away of that day when the poor
shall be properly paid for their work,
and the fostering Of that reckless
spirit, 'sThe world owes me living,
and [ am going to have it, If the
next rich man does not sell out and
distribute soon enough, they will
thirst for his riches-perhaps for his
blood. If some of his wealth is i'll
gotten, as is the case with many rich
men, they will consider it all SO. In
such soil the seeds of communism
grow. The advocates of anarchy and
the haters of government are found
always among the poor.
Now note this most remarkable
fact-that every single precept point
| ing to non-resistance and self-abne-
cation, while subjectively attractive,
ignores the objective and ultimate
effect that is, they all seem to be of
| benefit to the doer, but make not an
| iota of discrimination as to the effect
upon others; while, in fact, as his
tory has shown, and as we are now
beginning to know, both are injured !;
but the greatest harm is done to the
supposed benefciaries.
UNABLE TO TELL.-Yes, that was so. For years
I suffered severely with scrofula; sores broke out
all over my body, and am unable to tell one-half
that suffered able to obtain relief until
I used Sulphur Bitters, which completely cured
me.-C. B. Dale, II Alston street, Boston.

Betting on Election.

The sermons by Rev. Drs. Phillips
and Lowell Sunday on betting and
gambling in regard to election were
both pointed end forcible discourses.
They gave the meaning and the
object of betting and then presented
the disastrous effect of it upon the
individual, society, the state and
nation. They referred to the heavy
penalty imposed upon betting on
election in this state, and yet it has
neither occurred to the states attor-
ney or the people to punish those who
are gross violaters of the law. Rev.
gentlemen said, this law against bet
ting was framed because the people
knew that it would undermine the
morals and dignity of the state and
would thus be a continual menace to
society. They further showed what
will be the disastrous effect of this
evil upon the people. That their
points were we'll taken and that there
is just reason for the moral part Of
society to be alarmed concerning this
evil is shown from the following
editorial note in the IN. " Tribune
of last Sunday, yet it has been sug-
gested by number in this community
that the Christian church organization
should expel from it's connection men
who are in the habit of practicing
such vices. Here is the clipping;
''Was there ever so much betting
upon an election as there has been
this year? the number of bets has
been legion, many of them jocose,
many of them for trifing amounts,
but great number for large sums Of
money, The humorous bets are only
a laughing matter, of course. If
Jones had faith In Cleveland and is
obliged to trundle Smith (who be-
lieved in Harrison) for mile or two
through the streets in a wheelbarrow,
or if Brown sits two hours on top of
a picket fence, OF if Robinson finds
himself compelled to cheer for Har-
rison a quarter of an hour every day
for a month on the main street of his
town, it cannot be said that anybody
is seriously injured.
'sBut the money betting has
assumed proportions that deserve the
attention of moralists. Is it right
or safe that Presidential election
should be made a gambling operation
as this one has been to large ex-
tent? The law which DISTINGUISHES

Evaporating Fruit.

Few realize the magnitude of the
business of the evaporating of fruit.
Within a radius of forty miles of
Rochester, n. Y. there are said to be
no less than l 800 evaporators rang
ing in size from the small drier hav-
ing capacity of twenty-five bushels
per day to the large steam or hot air
evaporators that can dry 900 bush
els of apples in twenty-four hours.
In and about these evaporators 3d.
900 hands find employment during
the apple drying season, each earn
ing various amounts, from 50 to S12
per week. Some of the largest evap-
orators are owned by the proprietors
of the fine large orchards of western
New York-and there are many of
them that cover from thirty to one
hundred acres each-while not few
have been erected and run by parties
who evapOrate apples for the orcha-
dists at a fixed rate per pound, OF
who buy the fruit outright. In the
latter case from fifteen to forty cents
per bushel is usually paid for sound
fruit, the last named figure being
rarely reached.
The parings and cores are not al
lowed to be wasted, but are dried,
sold and converted into jellies. Last
year was a wonderful apple bearing
year for this region, and no less than
3O,0O0,O0O pounds of dried apples
were produced within this radius.
The cores and parings amounted to
II, 100000 pounds.
Of the 100000 pounds exported
during the season over one-half of
the amount were shipped from Roch-
ester. Aside from the evaporation
of apples great quantities of raspber-
ries are also dried each season, ag-
gregating in amount some hundreds
of thousands of dollars.

the result of the election is based
upon the just principle that the man
who votes to help his bet is in reality
bribing himself. Men who have
enormous stakes upon the issue of an
election, which are said to have been
wagered in this campaign, may very
easily be tempted to some corrupt or
unlawful action in order to increase
their chances of success. 1t is a de-
moralizing practice and public senti-
ment should be invoked to check it.

Reflections.

Deep in the hearts recesses lie
Feelings that blossom into deed,
Which often doth the soul apply
In actions better than its creed.
The higher thought and inner sense,
Expressed through life in many ways,
Secures for us providence
That Heaven sends with worthy praise.
No man can frame his fellows creed,
Each heart its own true altar hath,
Each SOULS creator ofits deed,
And truth the lamp to light its path.
Our truer selves refuse to stay
In temples old with wreck of age,
For ours are new each coming day,
And new to life each op'ning page.
Thus grandly penned in holy writ,
BY seers, or saints or sages strong,
Whom natures flames of nobler wit
Inspire to sing its sacred song.
What men revere in church or state
Because of age, must fail at last;
The true alone is only great,
And wisdom holds to progress fast.
The worlds of nature meet in man,
The world abroad of earthly things,
And world of mind that makes the plan
OF better self's environings.
Therein the souls true temple found,
Where worship of the heart is love,
Where virtue doth the praises sound
That natures nobler laws approve.
Thus men of deep convictions take
The altar truth and justice find,
And then for love, or freedom sake,
Adore the good that saves mankind,
Life is a temple of our fame,
And He by whom we live and do,
Doth kindle in each heart the flame
That prompts us to be right and true.

In 1884 an act was introduced in
congress to construct ten states out
of the 'swestern" lands east of the
Mississippi and north and south of
the Ohio. These states were to have
the fantastic names of Svlvania,
Michigania, Chersonesus, Assenis-
ipia, Metropotamia, Illinoia, Sarato-
ga, Washington, Polypotamia and
Pelespia. Fortunately the ''ordi
nance," as it was called, was not
passed.

Americans are deeply interested in
the project that is being pushed in
London, with the encouragement of
the British government for the laying
of an ocean cable across the North
Pacific, from Australia by way of
New Zealand and Hawaii to Van
couver, in British Columbia. By
means of this cable and our lines on
the Pacific Coast, the American peo-
pie will be brought into telegraphic
communication with the populous and
progressive colonies of Australasia,
and there is no doubt that important
commercial advantages will thus
accrue to the United States. There
is reason for believeing that the
British government will give direct
aid to the project, and, in the event
OF its doing so, speedy success will

The American people will deeply
sympathize with General Sherman in
the saddest of bereavements that
comes to loving hearts. The part
ing with the lifelong sharer of ones
joys and sorrows, of deprivations
and honors, is an event that always
tenderly appeals to human sympathy.
General Sherman, the sole survivor
Of the great trio of the military he
roes Of the civil war, lies very closely
to the hearts of the people of the ma
ton, and his joys and sorrows are
theirs in no conventional sense.
