Writing recently on the present dis
content among the working people of the
world, Mr.. Ruskin said: "There is no
remedy against this age of conquering
selfshuess, until it and all the thoughts
of this generation are swept away-ss all
sin and folly must be-in our ultimate
ruin. Live strongly and kindly; think
ing of the cause of the poor slwsys-all
victory Is in theirs"

whereas Edward only exceeded his half
century by lat days. The Queen has
about six years to make up to rival Henry

and there is no present apparent reason
why she should not do it.

INTEMPERANOE AND ITS OONSE-
QUENTS.
BY DR.. r. G. BAYLY,
Springfield, ILL.,
III.

IL intemperauce has power, taken as a
dynamic, to affect the soul, the body, and
society, reducing all these departments of
nature to an unstursl state, it should not
be Incredible that it may also have power
to produce like disorder in the mater
ial or physical world.
The immense power of the human will
over the material substances of the world
and the coDjunctions of its causes, is not
always adequately conceived. Almost
everything is capable of being in some
way varied or affected by it.
Being force above and outside, it is
continually playing itself into the chem
istries and external combinations of mat
ter, converting shapes, reducing or in
creasing quantities, transferring positions,
framing and Remembering conjunctions,
and turning poisons into medicines, and
reducing fruits to poisons, till at length
scarcely anything is left in its properly
natural state.
Many of these changes, which it is the
toll of human life to produce, are benef-
cent; and others represent too faithfully,
the prime distinction of intemperance;
the acting OF power against God, or as
it was not made to act. And il we could
bring together into complete inventory
all the new structures, compositions, in
ventions, shapes, qualities, already pro.
duced by man. which are the fruits or
furniture OF the excuses and perversions
of the thought and action of the will;
means Of self-indulgence, instruments of
violence, shows of pride, instigatiops of
corrupt pleasure-all the leprosies and
leper houses OF vice, the prisons of OPP
preston, the hospitals and battle-fields
of war, we should see face put on the
world which God never gave it, and
that only represents the bad conversion
it has suffered under the immense and
constant perversion of intsmperance.
But this distempsr, in its effects upon
the natural world, will appear by consid.
ering the complete and perfect unity of
natural causes; how they form a dynamic
whole, resting in an exact balance of
mutual relationship, so that when any
particle or world, starts from its orbit, or
position, every other particle or world
feels the change. What, then, must fol-
low when the given Incorporate force or
Substance, man begins and for long ages
continues to act outside of soberness and
good character, and breaking out on
every side from the general scheme of

The enterprising manager of a
Paris theater once called upon Meissonier
and asked him to paint drop-scene for
a certain thester and name his own terms.
You have seen my pictures, then?"
asked MISSIONER. "Oh, yes" exclaimed
the manager, "but it is your name-your
name want; it will draw crowds to my
thester." "And how large is it you wish
this curtain to be?" inquired the artist
"Ab, we'll, we will say fifteen meters by
eighteen" Meissonier took up pencil
and proceeded to make calculation. At
last he looked up and said with imper-
turbAble gravity, 81 have calculated and
find that my pictures are valued at $4,000
francs per meter. Your curtain, there
fore, will cost you just 21,600,0O0 francs.
But that is not all. 1t takes me twelve
months to paint twenty-five centimeters
of canvas. 1t will, therefore, take me
just one hundred and ninety years to fin
ish your curtain. You should have come
to me earlier, monsieur; am too old for
the undertaking now. Good morning.

Among the distinguished strangers
in Constantinople has lately been the
famous Kurdish amazon, Madame Kara
Fatima. Her military deeds date back
to the beginning of the Orimean war, when
she led large body of Kurdish volun-
teers, who fought with singular daring
for Turkey. The Ottoman government
remembers her services, and requites
these by monthly pension of 5000 pias-
tres. She is tall, thin, with a hawk-like
face. her cheeks are the color of parch-
ment, and scanned with scars; she wears
always the dress of the sterner sex, and
appears like man of forty, not wo-
man who will never again see seventy
five. Slung across her shoulders is her
long sabre, with it's jeweled hilt; decora-
tons shine on her breast; while the stripes
across her sleeve show her to be a cap
tain in the Ottoman army.

The second proposition relative to
the endless punishment of the wicked
was then taken up and discussed, Mr..
Nelson affirming that the punishment
of the wicked will be eternal, and that
eternal as applied to their punishment
meant endless.
In Br. Streets first reply he gave a
clear exegesis of the English terms
"eternal" and everlasting" showing
that the original Greek from which
they were derived had no such meaning
as is given to the English words eter5
nal' and /" everlasting"
2. That the adjectives eternal and
everlasting derived their force from the
nouns to which they were applied; eter-
nal God and eternal hills gives two re-
spective meanings to the word eternal or
everlasting. Eternal when applied to
the happiness of the righteous has a diff
ferent meaning to that when applied to
the punishment of the wicked, for the
reasons that the happiness of the right
eOus is bounded by such expressions as
" the power of an endless life" "im-
mortal life," and the like, while the
punishment of the wicked is bounded
by no such expressions, but, on the con-

Queen Victoria has great fond
ness for pearls, and has taken special care
that all her daughters shall have fine
pearl necklaces for their adornment.
One of her first purchases after the birth
OF each has been two or three pearls, and
every year until their marriage she has
added a pearl or two to her stock, until
the necklace she required was ready.

Nine. CarDot had great success with her

We should have parted and kept true
faith with each other if my strength

ICE THAT NEVER MELTS.
Heavy Mosses Which Make Alaska q
Natural Ice-House.

1t is remarkable, indeed, that so
much of the surface ground on the
Yudon is frozen solid to depth of
several feet. 1t is all the more SO when
we come to realize the fact that during
the summer it gets as hot there as in
the South. During the heat of the past
season the miners found it a great con-.
yenience to 60 in bathing in the streams
at least twice day, and to seek the
shady places in which to rock the gold
out OF the gravel. At the breaking up
of winter the hours of sunshine are
rapidly increasing, and continues SO
until midsummer. when the sun beams
forth twenty-five hours out of the
twenty-four, while on the high noun
tain peaks it is for period of several
days in June not entirely out of sight
during the twenty-four hours. But
during all this heat and long days of
continuous sunshine. the SUMS rays do
not penetrate the heavy MOSES that
cover nearly the entire surface of the
country, and, consequently, the frozen
ground underneath lies in that state as
if packed in an ice-house. After It
once becomes frozen, as any damp
ground will do in the winter time, it
rapidly becomes covered with this
moss, which is of remarkable rapid
growth, and attains depth of some two
feet or more. During the heat of summer
this moss becomes dry to the depth OF
several inches, and the miners think
that by continuous burning of it as
fast rs it dries they will soon have
the gravel bars along the creeks. at
least, cleared off, being of the impress
sion that when the gravel deposits are
exposed to the scorching rays Of the
sun, and rains and atmosphere, they
will readily thaw out. When winter
sets in the hours of sunshine gradually
decrease until during the shortest days
the sun shines but four hours out Vt
the twsnty-four. But at this period
the aurora is most intense and helps
very materially in driving darkness
from that dreary land. The ther-
mometer goes down to seventy degrees
in winter. but the atmosphere Is very
dry. and consequently, the cold is not
so perceptible as one would imagine

fTOILER'S CHRISTMAS HYMN.

1bave faith that holds my life
Above the slough OF sin;
THAT stills the angry waves Of strife,
And gives me peace within;
It is the story of the morn,
From Heavens inspired pen,
That tells to all how Christ was born
To walk the earth with men.
The shepherds meath the starry sky
Heard, tar beyond their ken.
The glory sung to God on high,
Good will and peace to men;
They saw the dawn in roseate light
Sweep back the ages gloom,
And Heavens love cleave pure and bright
The pathway from the tomb.
Not for the mobiles purple clad,
Mo- for the kingly crowned,
Carae Christ from God, with tidfngs glad
That our salvation found;
He sought the lowly, poor, oppressed;
In howell, hut and cave:
And made the toiling millions blessed,
In triumph DER the grave.
As Moses smote the rock Of old
He touched the human heart,
And from its center, hard and cold,
Saw loves sweet waters start;
His emblem was the palm, not rod,
And, OH He taught us then,
The way to win the love of God
Is through the love Of men.
OH brother toiler, lift your head,
Nor heed earths cruel blows;
The Christ who ate our bitter bread,
I And sorrowed DER our woes,
is yet our friend Of humble birth,
I And holds His blessings nigh,
For He who shared our homes on earth,
Has homes for US on high.
