Six Reasons why all Christians
should actively oppose war.
l. Because war is, in its nature,
contrary to the spirit and teachings
of the New Testament.
2. mo war can be reconciled with
the words of Christ, Love your ene-
miles,"
8. Because war appeals to the pas
sions of men, fosters a vindictive and
aggressive spirit.
"They who defend, war, must; de-
fend the dispositions that lead to
war.
4. Because the war system, as sup
ported by Christians, Is the great him
drance to the spread of Christianity,
both in civilized and heathen coun.
tries.
"If Christianity is to live and spread,
the war system must die."
S. Because war, in its best aspect,
is an attempt to overcome evil by
evil.
"How can Satan cast out Satan"
6. Because the war system habit
ually sets aside even the ordinary
rules of morality, and tolerates MUIR
der, lying, theft, rapine, and every
evil thing.
1T is never right for either nations
or individuals to do wrong; for "all
unrighteousness is SIM"
7. Because war is wasteful, beyond
description, of life and property;
while its decisions are in favor of brute
force rather than of right.

Shall We Meet Againa

The following is one of the most
brilliant paragraphs ever written by
the lamented George D. Prentice
"The fiat of death is inexorable.
There is no appeal for relief from the
great law which dooms US to dust.
We flourish and fade as the leaves of
the forest, and the flowers that bloom,
wither and fade in day have nofrailer
hold upon life than the mightiest mon
arch that ever shook the earth with
his footsteps. Generations of men will
appear and disappear as the grass, and
the multitude that throng the world
to-day will disappear as footsteps on
the shore. Men seldom think of the
great event of death until the shadow
falls across their own pathway, hiding
from their eyes the face of loved ones
whose living smile was the sunlight of
their existence. Death is the antagon-
ist of life, and the thought of the tomb
is the skeleton of all feasts. We do
not want to 60 through the dark val
ley, although the dark passage may
lead to paradise we do not want to 60
down into damp graves even with
princes for bed-fellows. In the beauti-
full drama of Ion the hope of immor-
tality, so eloquently uttered by the
death-devoted Greek, finds deep re-
sponse in every thoughtful soul.
When about to yield his life sacrifice

The Sabbath Stronger Than Armies.


Count Montalembert, one of the
most eminent statesmen, once wrote :
"Men are surprised sometimes by the
ease with which the immense city of
London is kept in order by a garrison
of three small battalions and two
squadrons, while to control the cap
ital of France, which is half the size
40, 900 troops Of the line and 10000
national guards are necessary. But
the stranger who arrives in London on
a Sunday morning, when he sees ev-
erything suspended in that gigantic
capital in obedience to God-when, in
the center of that colossal business he
finds silence and repose scarcely inter-
rupted by the bells which call to pray
er, and by the immense crowds on
their way to church-then his aston
ishment ceases. He understands that
there is another curb for Christian
people besides that made by bayonets,
and that when the law of God is full
filed with such a solemn submissive
ness, God himself, if I dare use the
words, charges himself with the police
arrangements"

by jury" as he calls it, was going on.
The eulprit, he says, "at first appeared
very perky and jaunty," though sur
rounded by some forty or fifty of his
evidently indignant associates, while
all outer ring of some hundreds were
incessantly and loudly cawing with
far greater indignation than was
shown by the more select number.
After few minutes, however, he says
the manner of the culprit suddenly
and wholly changed. He bent his
head, cawed weakly, as it were implor-
ingly and dropped his wings, as if
pleading for mercy. But it was use
less. The select circle closed upon
him at once, and, picking him to
pieces, left mangled carcase in less
time then one could write it. Then
they all flew away with sort of
exulting scream, some to the rookery
and some to the neighboring fields.
On picking up the remains, he adds,
IT found but a shapeless mass, but was
able to discern that it was male

Molly Malone, a worthy washerwo,
man in the West of Ireland, used to
say, and almost invariably after hear
ing a sermon on Sunday, that it was
mighty improvin'."
One day, however, her clergyman,
who was not quite content with this
generality, spoke to her respecting his
discourse, and Molly suddenly became
what they call in Ireland "a little
bothered" Nevertheless, she got out
of her difficulty with one of those
parabolic answers, which are such
favorites with her class, and which,
while it completely evaded the ques-
ton, satisfactorily replused to it.
"Well, Molly" said the clergyman,
"you liked the sermon, you say?"
20 yes, your rivirince," was the
reply; lit was mighty improin'."
"And what part of it did you like
best ?" he continued.
"When, sure sir, I liked every part, "
said Molly.
"But I suppose there were some por-
tions of it that you were more struck
with than you were with others?" per-
sisted the parson.
"In troth, phase your rivirince." said
the old woman, II don't remember any
part exactly, but altogether twas
mighty inprovin'."
"Now, Molly, how could it be i'm
proving if you don't remember any
part of it ?" asked the reverned gentle.
man.
"Well, your rivirince sees that linen
I've been washing and dhrying on the
hedge there ?" said Molly.
80 certainly" was the answer.
"Wasn't it the soap and, wather
made the linen clane, sir ?" asked Mol
ly.
"Of course they did," said the rec
tor.
"And isn't the linen all the better
for it ?n asked the old woman.
20 no doubt of that, Molly" was
the reply.
"But not a dhrop of soap and wat
her stays in it. Well, sir, its the same

What Others Say.
Le1id-d.Hdnd.

CARE FOR THEM.-There is need Of
the people who care. Many. young
man goes downward instead of up
ward in our crowded cities, not for
lack of religious privileges and oppor-
tunities, for empty churches invite
him at every corner, but for lack of q
friend who cares. Many s.iy0npg
woman in our kitchen deteriorates in
character and usefulness, because II
only her work is done. what she does
with her small leisure nobody knows
or cares. Absence Of genuine interest
is the worm at the heart upon fair
blossoms of charity. Every possible
substitute is offered suffering humanity
nursing, medicine, food, clothing,
advice-but nothing avails for general
uplifting without the heart of q friend.
No pretense of interest Is ever, mis-
taken for the genuine feeling. It. has
no counterfeit. Nor can its lack be
supplied by money, missions, or tracts.
We shall learn this as fast aud no fast
er than, we learn to care.

No Mistakes.

There is machine in the Bank OF
England which receives sovereigns, as
a mill receives grain, for the purpose OF
determining wholesale whether they
are of full weight. AS they pass
through, the machinery, by unerring
laws, throws all that are light to one
side, and all that are of full weight to
another. That process is silent and
solemn parable for me. Founded as it
is upon the laws of nature, it affords
the most vivid similitude of the GER
tainty which characterizes the judg-
ment of the great day. There are NO
mistakes or partialities to which the
light msy trust the only hope lies In
being standard weight before they &c
in.-Wa. Arnot.

Salt for the Teeth.

Millions of dollars are spent yearly
upon dentrifices. They lead to the
spending of millions more upon den
fists. A large percentage of this vast
outlay is unavoidable. The remain
der could be saved if mankind, after
reaching the age of reason and its last
teeth, would not persist in continuing
fresh. Common table salt is all that
is needed. There is no manufactured
tooth powder more harmless. There
is none so simple and efficacious. 1t
will actually retard decay after we
have filed off the enamel by using the
FOOLS toothpick, which is quill, in
stead of silver of soft wood-or bet
ter still, a thread.
