A Diplomatic Clerqyman.

A COOL minister was talking to
a class of young people who had
become interested in religious mat
ters through the influence of the
Moody meetings. He was i'm

his business. "DOn't keep your

The minister was nonplused for
a moment, and the class evidently
regarded the question as a poser.

emergency, and replied: awhile 1

Where no Dude Could Live.

ATLANTA, GA, March 29.-The
penalty of wearing store clothes in
Robun county, Ca, is death. Some
time ago the murder of William
Thomas in that county was re-
ported. To-day one of the murder
ers, Joseph Hopkins, was brought
to this city, and he tells a curious
story as to why the murder was
committed.
"ThOmas came cavorting up to
the church, said he, "awearin'
store clothes. Us boys did not
like to see him taking the shine of
us, so we concluded to have little
fun. We axed him to take drink,
but he WAS too uppity to do 1t. My
brother than threw a stone at him
to see how he would run, and he
run sure enough. Then we both
run after him, throwing stones
after him, when suddenly he drop
ped down dead. My brother is to be
hung on May IL and / am going 10
the coal mines for life. But | never
did like a man what wore store
clothes"

Ssperstitions About Babies.

Hdrper's Bdzdr has collected the
following interesting superstitlOns
about babies: Some of them are
familiar sayings In every country,
others are new.
It is believed by many that if a
child cries at its birth, and lifts up
only one hand, it is born to CON-
mand.
1t is thought very unlucky not to
weigh the baby before it is dress
ed. When first dressed the clothes
should not be put on over the head
but draw on over the feet for luck
When first taken from the room
in which it was born, it must be
carried up stairs before going down,
so that It will rise in the world. lu
any case, 1t must be carried uT
stairs or up in the street, not down
stairs OF down the street the first
time it is taken out.
1t is also considered in England
and Scotland unlucky 10 cut the
baby's nails or hair before 1t il
twelve months old.
Born on Monday, fair in the face
Born on Tuesday, full of grace
Born on Wednesday, the best tC

Born on Thursday, merry and
glad;
Born on Friday, worthily given
Born on Saturday, work hard fol

Born on Sunday, shall neveI

This is known with very few
changes, all over the Christian
world. One deviatian from thu

THE FATE OF THE HEATHEN.

CHARLESTON, April 1.-Some-
thing of a sensation was created
here today by the publication in
the Neics and Courier of the views
Of leading local clergymen on the
fate OF the heather after DEATH
Eight clergymen were interview
ed, representing the Methodist,
Baptist, Episcopal, Unitarian,
Presbyterian, Hebrew, and Roman
Catholic churches. The question
asked was: "What is the fate OF
the heather after death ~ Metho.
dist, Episcopal, Unitarian, Catholic
and Jew express the opinion as
promulgated by the late Pope
Plus *, that those who are in.
vincibly ignorant of the truths re-
vealed by Christ or of the teach
ing of the true Church, and who
faithfully observe the Divine
natural law, aided by the light of
reason and the grace Of God, may
be saved.
DR.. Thompson, Scotch Presby.
terian, expresses the opinion that
all who die without conversion,
heather or Christian, are damn
cd. DR.. Bracket, Presbyterian,
thinks that the heather will be
judged by their own cOnsciences,
but doubts their salvation unless
conyerted. DR.. Ford, Baptist, ex-
presses the opinion that there is no
salvation out of Christ, and God
has done enough to leave the heath
en- without excuse.

Bringing up Children.
From Woman for March

1t is IA natural to child to be
happy as it is to a fish to SWIM
But tor this they need a certain
amount of dieting alone" 1t is a
great mistake forparents to hamper
their children with foolish restric-
tions. We pity the little BIS, our
next door neIghboTs children, from
the bottom of our heart. There
is a picket fence in front of the
house, and they are scarcely allow
ed to 60 near it, lest they should
climb and hurt themselves. They
cannot climb a tree for the same
reason. They may not SKATE or
SWIM, or have a gun. The conse-
quence of this training is that their
parents have made towards OF
them all, with the exception of
little Bessie, who is the most dar.
ing little mis- chief that ever wore a
sun. bonnet, and she has learned to
be deceitful and PLAYS all her mad
pranks well ont of sight of her
parents eyes. We caught her the
other day walking the railing of a
bridge that crossed the track of a
railroad a hundred feet below. The
railing was not a foot wide, and
she trIumphantly told us that she
had walked it while the train was
passing under. 1t was enough to
make one shudder. Don't fancy
your boy is made of glass. Grant
a reasonable request, and let him
feel that when you refuse, 1t is for
his own good. Between the Jelly.
bys and the Gradgrinds OF life,
children have hard time OF it,
The youngest child needs some
sort of agreeable occupation, and

dom. There is nothing more
painful to young people than to feel
that lite Is one duh routine, and
that "nothing ever happens" as we

DON'T, FOR A SICK ROOM.

Don't weary your patient with
calculations indicative of a monen'
tary physical condition. If you
touch something hot, don't snap
your fingers; if you are cold, don't
shiyer; ifyou are sleepy, don't
yawn audibly; if you are tired
don't sigh and throw yourself
heavily into a chair. Don't show
in your face that a perfume or
odor is unpleasant to YOU. In
short, don't protrude yourself, or
your o VI personality, and the eas-
lest way to abstain from this is to
forget yourself.
Don't leave bureau drawers open,
not even crack, aud don't tuck
something behind something else
to be put in its proper place an
hour hence, the restless eye of the
invalid will find it. If she is
patient aud lOng-sufferiDg it will
cause her another effort of fOrbear-
ance if she is not, the result need
not be dwelt upon. Don't let fall
drop furniture handles and trunk
hasps, bat guide them noiselessly
to their places.
Don't shut a door with a slam or
a push, but keep the handle in the
hand until it Is latched. If the
hinges squeak, promptly oil them.
Don't rattle paper in the room,
and If you are reading, be careful
to turn the leaves of the book
noiselessly. These are all tri1es,
but "trifles make perfection" and
"perfection is no triae,' in nursing.
as we'll as in moulding clay.
No two things can occupy the
same space at the same tim
fpeace and quiet reign in the
mind of your patient, irritation and
annoyance cannot. The former
will aid recovery, the latter, i'm.

Increase of Heart Disease.

DR.. Mcconnell, statistician to the
board, shave increased in number
tOa startling extent Of late years,
aud no satisfactory reason can be
assigned for il except the general
one that we live faster than We did
quarter of a century ago. In
1850 the proportion of deaths from
heart-disease to the total number
was LAP per cent. In 1855 it had
increased tO2 per cent, in 1866 it
was over 3 per cent, in 1874 it had
jumped to over 4 per cent. 1t had
increased more than another | per
cent. in five years from that time,
and last year (lSSG) it was G.26 per
cent. These percentages are to the
total mortality, which is the only
true way to reach them. 1t Is quite
q popular notion that excessive
use of tobacco is the agglavating

The Remedy for e-Weariness

AS the man or woman leaves be-
hind the years of middle.age, he or
she begins to notice various
changes. Among the most import.
ant of these changes are those re-
lating to the brain and nervous
system. "My nerves are not quite
as steady as they used to be )" "My
memory seems to be failingw 81
have such a tired, weary feeling
after reading or writing for any
timer Such ordinations tell
their own story. They tell us that
the nerves are gradually losing
their strength and elasticity; and
the brain its power.
Nerve WEAKNESS mostly affects
the male portion Of humanity, as
their brain work is more arduOus
than that of the weaker sex. 1t is
always on the "gO' with Ameri-
cans. AS l mentioned in last
months Household Monthly, about
the stomach being constantly re-
Qnlred to labor without any ade-
quate period of rest, so is it with
the brain. The mental energy is
strained to the utmost during the
younger and middle years of life,
and when the fOrtieth or iftieth
milestone is passed, we find a vast
army OF weary brains; brains ia.
tIgued with the slightest effort.
What does the average man do
when he hnds himself in this statel
He rnshes to drink. Stmulants he
thinks are what the brains need
when, did he but realize the fact,
he is simply "heaping Goals of fire
upon his head.' Every stlmulat
ing drink be takes increases the
activity OF the nerve centre; urges
them on to faster and more con
slant work; and forces things to-
wards the consummation, complete
nervous prostration.
There is bat one remedy, sleep
not stimnlants, is the means to-
ward off the end. Sleep is the
only actual recuperative of nervous
energy the only true recuperatlve
of brain power. During sleep, the
brain Is at rest; and it is this very
inactivity that furnishes the blood
the opportunity of deposlting in
the encephalic structure, new and
fresh material and, on the other
hand, of gathering up and remoy-
ing the waste materials, produced
by the energy of the mental pro
cesses.
Sleep then is what everyone
should have; the child about ten
hours a day, the average adult
eight. Don't give every thought
to the present! Don't bend every
energy to the requirement Of
wealth. Remember, there is a
future before you; a future OF
bodily and nerve strength, or the
opposite, just as you choose to
make it.

Demand Of The Women.
THE CLOSING ANNOUNCEMENT OF
THE INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL.

The following official statement
has been issued by the Information.
al Council OF Women:
The International Council OF
Women, in session in the city Of
Washington from March 25th to
April |, inclusive, in closing makes
public announcement that fifty
three different organizations Oi
women have been represented on its
platform by elghty.seven speakers
and delegates from England, France
Norway, Denmark, Finland, India,
Canada, and the United States.-

four are of national scope and three
are of national value. The sub
jects of education, phiIanthrOpics,
temperance, industries, professions,
organization, legal conditions, So
cial purity, political conditions, and
religion have been discussed.
While no restriction has been
placed upon the fullest expression
of the most widely div ergent views
upon these vital questions of the
age, 1t is a cause for rejoicing that
the sessions, both private and pub
lie, have been absolutely without
friction.
IL is the unanimous voice of the
Council that all institutions OF
learning and of professional in.
strnction, including schools of
theology, law, and medicine, should,
in the interests of humanity, be as
freely opened to women as to men ;
that opportunities for industrial
training should be as generally
and as literally provided tor one
sex as for the other; and the rep.
resentatives of organized woman,
hood in this Council will steadily
demand that in all avOcations in
which both men and women en-
gage equal wages shall be paid fol
equal work; and, finally, that an
enlightened society should demand
the only adequate expression OF the
high civilization which it is it;
office to establish and maintain, an
identical standard of persona
purity and morality for men anC
women.
