Mr.. Cleveland says there can be no OBJ
lection to giving instructions in morals
and religion to these wards OF the nation
in their oHn language, if they cannot I'M
derstand English; indeed, such a course is
necessary, and is to be encouraged. But
it is not necessary, and not desirable, to
spend the money OF the government in
teaching them their OWL language, as q
matter OF education, when the same time
and effort would be far better employed
in acquiring 4 knowledge OF English.
When they talk English, they have. if
other things are equal, made long stride
toward independence and true civilization,
and are in vastly better position than
their fellows who can talk only the Ian
guage OF a small tribe or group, and who
are consequently foreigners in their own
land. The Indian problem is SO difficult
of solution at the best that it is heartily
to be hoped that the friends of the Indian
may act in harmony, and may support the
government in 50 far rs il appears that its
efforts are wisely directed to the end OF
giving them true independence as basis
for true civilization. In the present in
stance the government seems to have acted
with wisdom and discretion

ALUM BAKING POWDERS.
Declared Adultcrated Food and Their Sale
Illegal.

Tire result of trial just concluded at Canton,
n. y, before Judge Kellogg will have a salu-
tary effect in checking the sale of one class of
adulterated food. Two men. named Moon and
Akerill, were arrested for selling alulterated
baking powder in violation OF the state food
adulteration act. The Indictment was Tor both
selling baking powders thatwere inferior adul-
terated and injurious to health by reason of
being made from alum, and selling them under
pretense that they were wholesome cream of
tartar baking powder. A stubborn defense was
made, the claim being set up that baking pow
ders were not articles of food and that the pow
der the defendants were selling, which was
known as tilletts, was a standard article of
trade, and that alum baking powders inferior
20 It, like Davis and others, were being sold by
other dealers in the same town without com
plant The court held that baking powders were
articles of food within the meaning of The law,
and the jury found the defendants guilty upon
all the charges The ease has attracted much
attention from being the first brought under
the state food adulterailpn act against dealers
in alum baking powders. The result OF the
trial is to class such baking powders as adulter-
ated.Wtcles of food and to make their sale IL
legal. There are many alum baking powders
PCT up in cans, under some name or brand in
addition to those sold in bulk the sale OF all Of
which cautious dealers will probably be un-
willing ~ continue.

Standing BY The Pastor.


There are churches in every denomina-
ton that need to be built up. They were
gathered, perhaps, around the personality
OF some strong man, who has been trans
ferred to some other field or changes in
the growth OF the city have reduced the
attendance and the revenue. In such cir
cumstances the church very naturally
seeks for a popular minister, and in three
cases ont of four it proposes to throw the
whole burden on his shoulders. Ii there
is anything that is surprising and discour-
aging, it is the GOODNESS with which some
parishes will call Il minister, and then
stand by with arms folded TO see him ac-
complish its deliverance. There are few
such examples OF miraculous energy.
There are Samsons to-day as in days OF
yore, but there are not a great many OF
them in the pulpit. And not even an in
stalled Samson could draw a stalled
church out of the mire of debt with an
inert congregation sitting in the wagon
when they ought to be Juggling at the
wheels.

Going To school.

The important matter to you in begin
ming school is not how this teacher OF that
one conducts himself toward you-wheth-
er he : partial, incapable, unjust, but how
YOU conduct Yourself toward 1lim-wheth-
err you are truthful, honest, manly. Forty
years hence what will his injustice or in
capacity matter to you? But the lie you
tell, the cheating to gain high standing,
tricky meanness shown to a weaker boy,
they will outlive you; you will carry their
marks with you when YOU lie stiff and
white in your coffin. In a word, boys and
girls, it is not parents or schools that are
making you; 1t is you who make your
selves 1t is not Legendre Virgil which
the world will see alive in you at middle
age, but the trifiing actions of your daily
life now-the little vices and unclean-
nesses, or the sweet, high courtesies,
kindnesses, and courage of your school
day lives.

its face. Its morality bears the stamp Of
