SUG AND RASPBERRY WILLIAMSON, while
ploughing one afternoon lately near b.
beyville, Ga, came across an adder
ference of the snake somewhere near
the middle of it's body being out of pro-
portion, the boys decided to make an
examination. They gave the snake a
gentle tap on the head, and large toad
was vomited from its hot, airless resting
place. To all appearances the toad was
dead, and was pitched into fence cor
ner. About shutdown, however, when
the two young men were preparing to
go home. they looked 10 see what had
become of their unfortunate victim. To
their surprise the frog was batting its
eyes and getting ready for lis nightly
hop, as if anxious to swallow something

A Sea Sick Passenger.

On the ocean, cares little about a storm. He is
positively indifferent whether he is washed
overheard or not. But, set right by a wine
glassful OF two of HoStetters Stomach Bitters,
he feels renewed interest in his personal safety.
This fine corrective ncutralizes in brackish
water-often compulsorily drank on shipboard,
to the grievous detriment of health-the per
nicious impurities which give rise to disorders
of the stomach, liver and bowels. 70 the mar
liner, the tourist, the Western pioneer and miner,
the Biters is invaluable as means ofprotection
against malaria when its seeds are latent in air
and water. To the effect of ovcrwork, mental or

He never taught" To His "Blessed
are the peacemakers, for they shall be
called the sons of God" 1t was some
times added. "But not unless they
deny this and war against such as do
not think Him the only son OF God"
Jesus statement that God would for
give all those, and only those, who for
gave others. is still so construed as to
mean that God will do no such thing,
but will pardon only those who be-
lieve that He was so unfOrgiying as to
want that vicarious atonement. Jesus
BLESSED are the merciful' was some
times amended with the proviSo that
they must now and then show their
mercy by free use of the rack: and
Jesus "Love your enemies" was eX-

going 10 burn His forever, and wanted
Ills church sometimes to adopt the prac-
tice. Such excuses have been only Oc-
casiOmal and are past. But doctrines
are still taught in jesus name that are
about as far as possible from His re-
ligiOn of forgiveness and love. Seeing
how far He carried those principles, one
is forced to say with Emerson, "ln

guage of common life, we say of the
brave man, ''he has good heart;" of
coward, we say. ''his heart has failed
him." At the center of courage Is the
heart, This quality Of the soul lifts
man and his actions above the ordinary
level of life. "IIeroism always runs
from the lower toward the higher"
The mean, the base have nothing heroic.
SelfishneSs is never brave. The COM
mon plane of our living is low enough.
We are sleek and cOntented; we are
drOwsy and Indifferent. The pulseless
monotony of the household or business
runs on. We are prisoners of routine.
We have enough to cat and drink. We
are decent in our behavior. We are not
disdained by men. But we do not think
much of our souls, our fellows, or of God.
We do not think much of what is rep
resented by that verse of scripture,
''The fruit of the spirit is love, joy.
peace, long suffering, gentleness, good.
ness, faith, meekness, temperance"
That there is world within us and
about US, and above us, larger and
grander than the crib at which we feed
and the pen in which we dOZe, we do
not seem to understand. BY and by
something rouses us. 1t may be the
trumpet of some tremendous duty.
Every great cause needs a champion

man, the work of temperance. the needs

being. 1t may be bolt in the shape of
some SANDER, or some agony of bereave-
ment. 1t may be some loss or disaster:
Whatever the occasion we are called
upon to leave the old level and take
new attitude. Let us see to it when the
blast of the bugle vibrates through your
soul and mine that our hearts fail us
not! Courage is the hearts response to
the higher force that touches it, and
that higher force is always some mani
festation of God! In the tones of what

Interesting studies at the L for the past
few weeks. All of the freshmen were
drafted, and with the exception of few
who were too delicately constituted,
have entered upon military duty with
all the ardor and enthusiasm character
istic of their kind. Most of them are
very quick to learn the marching move

awkward squad is by no means neg
iected, and forms conspicuous side
show to the regular drill. The winter
term will be devoted to target practice.
The veterans are a jealous and am
bilious crowd. The drill of last year
developed a remarkable array of COM
handing ability, and this year each one
thinks himself the best qualified
for a captaincy. All of the staff
officers and two OF the captains
of last year were reappointed this fall.

METHUS ELAH.
The Oldest Man and the Lessons
of His Life.

of His Life.
At Westminster church yesterday
Rev. d. J. Burrell preached a sermon
upon the life of Methuselah. "And all
the DAYS of Methuselah were nine hun
bred and sixty and nine years, and he
died" Genesis, v, q.
In our text four things are suggested
W it'll respect to this man.
First-He lived. If nothing were add
ed we should have enough to puzzle
us. For life is great mystery. The
speaker dwelt upon some of the popu-
lar theories respecting life, concluding
that none is satisfactory except that of
the Scripteres. And God breathed
into his nOstrils and he became living
SOUL"
Second-He lived almost a thousand
wears. The patriarchS were all long
lived. They were not far from the
wholesome regimen of Paradise. They
had not as yet ruined the universal
physique by long persistence in vicious
habit. We have been running down
ever since. In the meantime number
less methods have been proposed for the
prolOngatiOn of life, none of which is to
be compared with that of the Scriptures.
1.-The years of the wicked shall be
shortened, but the fear of the Lord pro-
longeth thy days"
Third-He did nothing worth mention
ing. His life covered period of dark
spiritual deClensiOn, when good man
might have had an inestimable power !:
but Methuselah seems TO have been a
nobody. Zone single hour of glorious
fame is worth an age without name"
Fourth-He died. And the prOba-
bilitv is that when death came 1t took
him by surprise. Let us be getting
ready. MAN gOeth to his long home,
Fifth-We know not what came after.
but of this we are confident, death does
not end all. After death the Judgment.
after Judgment eternity. If we have
any preparation to make let US be max
ing it: if our sins are unfOrgiven let US
come quickly to Christ. For as the tree
falleth so shall it lie.

"COURAGE.'
A Spirited Address Defining in
What Ii Consists.

Courage was the subject on which
Rev. Marion d. Shutter spoke yesterday
morning at the Church of the Redeemer.
He said:
We recognize and experience many
things VIC are not able to define. The
highest qualities are incapable of sharp
lines. Many an one knows and feels
what mercy is. what sympathy, what
love, what virtue, who could not put it
into words. They roll as an ocean in
hearts that can throw no coast-line
about them. Courage is the rousing up
of the heart, putting its mighty forces
in motion, It's higher forces, for
the accomplishment of some noble
end, or the endurance of some
great wrong OF crushing sorrow.
Courage is the heart girded for battle OF

A CONTRAS ST.
Religion Righteousness Rather
Than Rites.


H. VI. Simmons, In his sermon at the
First Unitarian church yesterday morn
ing. said there could be no greater con-
trast than that between Jesus divine
religion and the doctrines that have
been often taught in his name. Jesus
taught that life in the service of others
was the true religion, and compared
ascetic fasts to weak bottles and worn
out clothes: but for centurieSthe church
considered fasting more important than
charity, and sometimes regarded an
aScetic starving himself in the desert
or standing years on the top of pillar
or on one foot. as the noblest
eXemplar of a Christian saint. Jesus
taught that religion was righteousness
rather than rites, and did not
baptize,' the New Testament says:
And Paul once thanks God that he had
baptized so few" but baptism was long
regarded as more important than COM
mon morality, and even way of get
ting DardOned for immortality. Jesus
taught a god of love, who wanted
mercy and not sacrifice but the
church long taught, and sometimes Still
teaches, that this God demanded the
sacrifice of His own son before he would
forgive men for sin they had not COM
mitted, and for a depravity He had
caused, and that even then He would
forgive but a few, and would punish
forever the heather who had never
heard of it and the heretics who were
unwilling to believe that God was so
wicked. This doctrine also reversed
the mercy Jesus taught-fOr if heresy
was so dangerous as that, then extreme
measures must be used to keep it from
spreading and the most conscientious
believer would be ready to treat its teach
ers with a sufficient degree of that fire
which a wise God had chosen as the
true way of treating them forever. And
so Jesus sermon on the mount came to
be curiously interpreted. To His
BLESSED are those who hunger and
thirst after righteousness" it was
added, but not unless they keep the
sacramentS." To HIS Blessed are the
