THE Old STORY.

Ii would no. nave been orthodox II
the gentlemen who have Just been
holding a convention here for the
proper observance of the Sabbath, to
have adjourned without passing reso-
lutions against the Sunday paper.
The Sunday paper has been the never
failing subject of such attacks for
years, but instead of losing ground, il
merely gains, and is at present a fea-
ture in journalism which is bound to
stay, tho, every minister in the land
should denounce it. Just az it is with
certain forms of recreation, the Sunday
newspaper is an adjunct to the labor
ing man which he is not willing
to dispense with and which he vii
not dispense with. The man who
spends his every day at the forge,
pane, handling some intricate piece
of mechanism, in the thousand and
one industrial pursuits which to him
means bread and butter, looks for
ward to the Sunday newspaper as the
one medium which connects him with
literature, with science, with govern
ment, with the great throbbing ar
teries of the busy world and which
whets his intelligence, so that il will
compare favorab'y with those whose
coign of vantage has been far SUPER r
to his own. OF course, the sleek,
well fed, well cared for minister's.

laboring brother is welcome in the
churches and there we viii,
entertain him. much better than he
could be entertained BY reading th.

the laboring man is supposed to be p

the right to re in his own way af-

rest, he also adds the recreation Of the
Sunday newspaper, bad as his taste
may be, none may say him nay. a.

were the same publications made on
Monday and it is evident that it is
the Monday newspaper which should
receive the attention of the clergy
and other Sunday reformers. Be thi.
as it NAV, however, the Sunday news
paper is an established fact, which no
amount of quixotism on the part of
these same reformers will be able to
overthrow and instead of wasting time
nesdlessly. it would appear that if
the same effort were TO be directed
toward adding more attractive church
features to the churches, in the shape
of sermons, perhaps, which would
reach down and encourage and sus-
tain and comfort the great mass OF
toiling and sorrowing humanity. in

to walk in prescribed lines. the result

Tho "Sentence System"

Charles Dickens, while visiting the
Massachusetts school ship, was called
upon for a speech" He responded by
saying, "Boys, do all the good you can
and make no fuss about it."
Mr.. Dickens, as his novels attest, be-
lieved in the beneficial effect of pithy
saying and striking proverb-pointed
words which would fasten themselves in
the memory. The conductors of the
Netherlands Mettray," one of the model
reform schools of Holland, use this ''sen-
tence system" as means of moral edu-
cation. They hang on the walls such
sentences as these:
"He who seeks himself will not find
God;" "a poor man he who has nothing
but moneys" "He is fool who lives poor
to die rich;" Labor has a golden bot
tom;" Scare for the moments, and these
will care for the years."
Sometimes a boy Is made to learn
sentence by heart. One boy was over
heard using foul speech to comrade.
He was ordered to read to the boys every
morning for eight days this sentence,
"It is better to be dumb than to use the
tongue for filthy talk" 1t made him
clean in speech. Companion.
