LOGIC AND BBLIEP.

II law be the creator, if law be mode.
then, before it created force, what was it a
mode of, Not of force" for, by the
argument, that did not yet exist in the
sense intended; nor of matter, because, in
the scientific sense, matter without force
is not matter at all. If, then, law existed
before the universe, and it must have done
in order to create the universe, it could
only exist in mind, and so we are once
more brought back to God. We need only
add that like reply may be given to the
notion that the universe created itself.
For, when we try to represent the thought
to our minds, we see at once that it in
wolves the extraordinary proposition that
the universe existed before it existed, in
order to make itself exist! 1t is said that
the Duke of Blankshire, on hearing DIR.
Chambers, remarked: "Monstrous clever
man that! Could prove anythingn' We
may truly say, leaving out the cleverness,
that the man who could believe such a prop
osition could believe anything. And the
Atheist, if there be any Atheists, must be
very credulous man. A dear old dame,
on being asked how she could bdlieve that
a whale swallowed Jonah, replied: IF the
Bible said it, l would believe that Jonah
swallowed the whale" Now, if the diff
culties of theism equal the whale swallow
ing Jonah, those of Atheism equal Jonah
swallowing the whale.-Angelicdn Church

The Rnrrns Laid In

The last pack train for the season has
been sent out of Warrens, Idaho, and the
patient beasts have gone into winter quar-
ters. The last shipment amounted to over
one hundred thousand dollars. There are
many who have great faith in the future Of
Warrens, and that belief seems to be justi-
fed by recent shipments.

FAITH AND THE UNEXPECTED.

The Lord leads every one Of US by way
we know not. The unexpected is what
comes to US all. Our nests that we had
made are broken mp. New influences flow
into our lives; delights to which we had
been accustomed leave us, never to return.
The goodly things that seemed to be within
our grasp slips away from US, and we are
forced to face new and hard conditions.
Here is where weak faith falters, and a
false faith breaks down. A sudden sorrow
dates an eclipse Of faith and loss of comfort
| for all the after life. An unexpected loss
embitters the heart, and henceforth all its
issues are mingled with gall A fragrant
act of injustice or ingratitude drives the
iron deep into sensitive soul, and it re-
mains there corroding until death What
these persons lacked was that true faith
in God that takes things as they come in
this life. True faith chooses God, and then
is glad to have God choose everything else
for it's possessor. The tests that reveal the
weakness and precipitate the overthrow of
the faithless bring to the faithful the real
opportunities of their lives. Success or
failure is pivoted upon what use may be
made OF things unexpected that comes upon
US. They reveal true manhood and true
sainthood The true blessedness of this
life is found in making 1t flexible enough
| to let God into every part and every mo-
ment of it, and to welcome the unexpected,
whatever it may be.-Nashville Christian

''cHURCHLEss DISTRICTS
There are in our large cities many
churchless districts. 1t is not unusual to
find densely populated sections without a
single house of worship. This gives occa-
sion for many complaints by critics of the
churches, and for still more sincere and
serious regrets by church people. But the
unhappy situation is not always due to the
willful neglect and Indifference of Chris

to maintain regular services in some of

Missouri is generally regarded as State
wholly given over to Boubon Democracy,
and many people in New England will be
surprised to know the size of the Republican
party in that State. Some of the Missouri
Republicans, who think their State has
been overlooked In the distribution of
offices have been making some inter-
esting comparisons. They show that
Kansas, for instance, with her boast
ed majority Of $4,000 for Harrison, cast
In all only 1884 Republican votes, whereas
Missouri cast 236,325 at the same election.
In like comparison with Iowa, there is an
excess of nearly $4,000 in favor of Missouri
The aggregate Republican vote in Nebraska,
Colorado, Nevada and Oregon at the last
election was not so large as that of Missouri
by upwards of $4,000. All of the New Eng
land States combined gave Harrison trifle
over 445,000 votes; and Missouri alone gave
him about $4,000 more than half as many
In short, only six States Of the Union-Illi-
nois. Indiana. Michigan, New York, Ohio
and Pennsylyania-cas as large Republic
can vote in 1888 as was cast by Missouri. 1t
is the misfortune of all these loyal Missouri,
Republicans, lhowever, that they are placed

Democracy is denser than in Indiana, and

twenty-five years ago Paraguay was one
of the most flourishing states of South
America, and possessed population of
million and quarter, mostly descended from
mixed marriages between Spanish colonists
and the native Indian race. Then came the
terrible war of 1865 to 1870, in which brave
little Paraguay fought, single-handed, against
the combined forces of Brazil, Uruguay and
the Argentine Republic The war ended
with the humiliation of the adult male
population of the republic. Indeed, FIVE
sixtns of the entire nation was destroyed.
for in 1871 the inhabitants numbered less
than quarter of million, while more than
million had persisted One strange result
of the war is still visible in the curious fact
that the adult female population Of Paraguay
outnumbers the adult males in the proportion
of three to one. In all Anglo-Saxon colonies
the reverse Of this is invariably the case, the
men showing an enormous prepOnderance
over the women. The Paraguayan women
are said to be very good looking, but they
can't get husbands. The government strong
ly discourages male celibacy, and there is
hardly bachelor to be found in thecountry.
The statistics of the Paraguayan registrar
general reveals some curious facts resulting
from this inequality of the sexes. Among
other things there are far more girls born
than boys, and only one-third of the total
number of births are those of children born
in wedlock.

musical and singing societies of New York
unite in arranging grand chorus, of per-
haps thousand voices, for the evening Of
April 80. They would sing patriotic songs,
either old or TO be specially composed for
the occasion. This would be an interesting
and memorable feature Of the occasion, and
would drown out, too. some unseemly bick'
erlngs which have taken place over arrange
ments and in which the New York Legisla.
ture has made good share of inharmonious
noise because it did not get as many tickets
