An Important Circular Letter to
Physicians.

WASHINGTON, d. G., May |, 1885,
10 the Medical Profession The
various medical associations and the
medical profession will be glad to
learn that DR.. JOHN S. Billings,
Surgeon U. S, Army, has consented
to take charge of the Report on the
Mortality and Vital Statistics of the
United States as returned by the
Eleventh Census.
AS the United States has no system
of registration of vital statistics, such
as is relied upon by other civilized
nations for the purpose of ascertain
ing the actual movement of popula-
ton, our census affords the only OPP
portunity of obtaining near an ap-
proXimate estimate of the birth and
death rates Of much the larger part of
the country, which is entirely unpro-
vided with any satisfactory system of
State and municipal registration.
In view of this, the Census Office,
during the. month of May this year,
will issue to the medical profession
throughout the country "Physician's
Registers" for the purpose of obtain
ing more accurate returns of deaths
than it is possible for the enumera-
tors to make. 1t is earnestly hoped
that physicians in every part Of the
country will cooperate with the
Census Office in this important work.
The record should be kept from June
l, 1889, to May 81, 1890. Nearly &c.
600 of these registration books were
filled up and returned to the Office in
1880, and nearly all of them used for
statistical purposes. 1t is hoped that
double this number will be obtained
for the Eleventh Census.
Physicians not receiving Registers
can obtain them by sending their
names and addresses to the Census
Office, and, with the Register, an
official envelope which requires no
stamp will be provided for their re-
turn to Washington.
If medical and surgical practition-
ers throughout the country will lend
their aid, the mortality and vital
statistics of the Eleventh Census will
be more comprehensive and complete
than they have ever been. Every
physician should take a personal
pride in having this report as full and
accurate as it is possible to make it..
1t is hereby promised that all in
formation obtained through this
source shall be held strictly conf

Joy" in Believing.

Some people are afraid of anything
like joy in religion. They have none
themselves, and they do not love to
see it in Others. Their religion is
something like the stars, very high
and very clear, but very cold. When
they see tears of anxiety, or tears OF
Joy, they cry out, Enthusiasm En-
thusiasm! ~ 81 sat down under his
shadow with great delight" Is this
enthusiasm ? "NIay the God of hope
fill you with all joy and peace in
believing" If it be really in sitting
under the shadow Of Christ, let there
be no bounds to our joy. Oh If God
would but open our eyes and give us
simple, child-like faith to look to
Jesus, TO sit under his shadow, then
would songs of joy arise from all our
dwellings -MCHENNE.

ALESSONIN LIFE.

Weary aud worn at the close of the day,
A day full Of duties half done,
l yielded to murmurings, keenly felt
At the hardships under the sun.
At the burdened lives, and sorrowing souls
That are plodding along life's way,
At fate's cruel blending, the wide world DER
OF the coarser and finer clay.
AT life's inequalities strangely sad,
AT the woes we cannot escape,
Till it seemed to me that the whole, whole
earth
Should be dressed in cypress and Grape.

OF glory;" The words seemed of fire
That brought to my saddened, troubled
heart
ReprOcf for each sinful desire.
Then read of that bright golden City;
Its Jasper walls came to my view,
With it pearly gates always wide open,
To welcome the good and the true.
And it told me that sorrows and sufferings-
That partings and heartaches and sighs-
We're unknown in that haven celestial,
Where tear drops are wiped from all
eyes.
Where the rainbow is brilliant aud fadeless,
Where summer eternal holds sway,
And, in looking, and thinking, and longing,
| forgot all the cares of today.
For peace and quiet contentment
Hal fallen to soothe and to cheer;
| kRCp there were glories awaiting
The patient and faithful ones here.

The shadows less darksOme and great,
And the evening was turned into morning

Saved by a Cobweb.

The Talmud says that when Da-
vid was fleeing from Saul he took
refuge in the cave of Adullam, and
while there, a spider spun its web
over the mouth of the cave. When
Saul in pursuit came to the cave he
passed by without looking n,because
the spider-web seemed to show that
no one had recently entered the cave.
The same story is told of Mahomet
and also of st. Felix, who is some
times represented in art with a spider
spinning its web.

A pretty fan was presented to a lit
tie girl four years ago, and she, wish
ing to show her new treasure, hung
it on her finger and held it out at
arms length. A lady, on entering
the parlor, was attracted by the Pc
culiar attitude of the little girl, and
finally said to her: "Isn't it very
fatiguing to hold your arm in that
way so long," Said little Elsie with
a deep sigh: "Isn't it always fatigu-

Sweet Words.
Woman's Work .

Woman's Work.
Words that bring abiding comfort,
and give the most pleasant after-feel-
ing, are those that fall with gentle
cadence on our hearts, and are
fraught with love and kindness. The
quick and satirical retort, we may
admire for the moment, but it is
likely to leave sting and the re-
membrance of it will cause a feeling
Of discomfort. Booklore may inter.
est, and gay banter please while we
listen, but the loving words given us,
we make our own and put among our
heart-treasures. We count them over
to ourselves when we are sad and
lonely, and their memory is like the
cool and fragrant air that fingers
among the flowers and foliage on a
Southern evening in summer, and
touches the hot brow of the weary
passer-by as he seeks his home after
the days labor is over.

Make Believe Churches and Circuses

Christian Register.
Little children are sometimes fond
of playing church. They set up
pulpit and with "nake-believe"
minister and Il "make-believe" choir,
and very often "make-beieve" con-
gregation, 60 through all the form of
church service. 1t strikes us that the
children are not the only ones who
"play church." Are not many of our
churches conducted in an ameteurish
way? The minister, perhaps, is Il
sort Of "make-believe" man, the
choir sing "make-believe" music
which might answer as well for
concert as for church, and the con-
gregation never really take hold Of
things as if they meant business. Is it
not time that such societies gave up
the plan of playing church, and took
hold of their work in downright
earnest? A "make-believe" church
is of little more power in the world
than "make. believe" circus.
