What would you think of Yourself if you
should allow visitor, whose presence you
desired to enter and leave your house. to
brush past you in the hall, without speak
ing word of welcome or friendlness tu
him But the church is your house as
hosts in Gods behalf aud YOU are glad to
have visitors attend its services Then show
them the pleasure YOU really feel at their
presence As host introduce yourself
aud make the visitors acquainted with 9th
ers, that they may feel that they are
welcome. Invite them to come again. Do
not give them occasion, from your manner,
tO think that your congregation is made up
Of cold or exclusive set. A church is not
"a club, where all but those who belong to
certain circles must expect to he snubbed
if they presume to intrude If you are too
high toned to exchange a word of Christian
greeting with the stranger who worships on
the same bench, or walks by your side down
the aisle, then you had better set up II
church of your own, and make sure before
hand Of having reserved for you little
corner IN heaven, where Christian brother
hood shall be prohibited
But there are some visitors, on the other
hand, who are chillier than all iceberg u
approach and their temperature always
runs down to the lowest point in church.
We have often tried TO give you a hearty
welcome, Mr.. Zero, when you visited our
services, but you always act as if You
thought us mighty presuming and impudent
If we were able to force a hand shake,
what limp, clammy, hyperborean grasp
you returned. 1t is even worse in the case of
your beloved better half and your charm
ing daughter, Miss Gingerly Zero. More
than once they have looked straight in our
face as they brushed by us in the aisle,
when we tried to welcome them but evil
IDENTIFY they are blind and deaf, else they
would not have been so i'll hammered as to
toss their heads as they did, and pass by
in silence with an insulted air And yet
we have heard some of your family com
plain about the unsociability of our church

AGRICULTURAL.
The Influence Of the Forest Upou the
Amount Of Rain.


Sixteen pages of the last annual report
of the department Of Agriculture are de
voted To a discussion Of the climatic inlu
ence Of the forest. its effect upon the pre-
cipitation Of rain being the principal point
of the discussion Mr. Fernow, chief Of
the forestry division, seems 10 consider the
data at present attainable rs insufficient TO
prove conclusively that the forest has or has
not an appreciable influence ON the amount
of rain fall His report contains sum
mary Of the principal facts relating to for
est influences collected 10y scientific observ
ers in this country, Europe, India and Aus
traia, and an abstract of a lengthy discus
sion Of the question by the Philosophical
Society of Washington, which was brought
out hv an article 10y II. Gannet, geographer
Of the l.. S. Geological Survey, claiming to
prove from the records Of rainfall in this
country the absence of any material iutiu
ence from the forest. MIR Fernow, though
inclined to favor the theory that extensive
forests increase the quantity Of rain, makes
an impartial summary Of the facts which
tend ~ disprove it.

SECOND PARISH CHURCH.

SECOND PARISH CHURCH.
Rev. j. G. Merrill, the new pastor of the
church, conducted services at the Second
Parish church yesterday. Mr.. Merrill is a
fluent speaker who is not confined to his
notes, but speaks rapidly and with effect. In
the afternoon his text was taken from Luke's
Gospel. chap. w., verse IS, HE hath anointed
me to preach the Gospel" Mr.. Merrill spoke
eloquently of Jesus, who is, he said, the
preacher of the ages. His mental generos-
ity, his perfect knowledge of men, his ac-
quaintance with nature, the fact that his
early life was spent at the carpenters bench
in hard work, all taken together contributed
to make the greatest preacher the world has
ever seen.
The church was tastefully decorated with
evergreens and flowers in honor of the new
pastor. ss
wILLIsToN CHURCH. a
! At Wllliston Church yesterday, Rev.
Charles L. Merriam of Patterson, N. j., the
pastor-elect, conducted the services morning
and evening. In the morning his text was
jeremiah XIV, 8: "And seekest thou great
things for thyself? seek them not" He said:
Here Is man whose acts and aspirations
centre altogether in himself. Everything re-
solves about self. Do not understand me,
friends, in repeating my text, to be teaching
young people that their ambition to make
place in the world is wrong; it is not, What
are some Of the great things that are sug
gested by the text? They are not necessarily
great in cost, but great in the expenditure of
effort In their accomplishment. The life of
Christ is constant example of the way in
which great things should be used. There is
no question but that his personality, his self
was instrumental in the results he wroupht
Things sought for the good of self are not
available for the good of soul. Remember
the ironical picture which Christ drew of a
selfish man, who, when the poor around him
cried for bread, pulled down his barns and
