The next day the sick man again

only very impatieAt because neither

had barricaded the doors that no

evening she went to her attorney and
ascertained that on the morrow they
were to come again, and that with

The Date of the Creation Of
Adam,

Of all who gave themselves up to
the chronological studies, the man
who exerted the most powerful inhu-
ence upon the dominant nations of
christendom was Archbishop Usher.
In 1850 no published his "Annals of
the ancient and new testaments.'
and it at once became the greatest
authority tor all English-speaking
peoples. Usher was u man 0! deep
and wide theological learning, pow
erful in controversy; and his careful
conclusion, after years of the most
profound study of the Hebrew script
ures, was that man was created 1904
years before the christian era. His
verdict was widely received as final;
his dates were inserted in the mar
gins of the authorized version OF the
English bible, and were soon prac-
tically regarded as equally inspired
with the sacred text itself; to ques-
ton them seriously was to risk pre-
ferment in the church and reputation
in the world at large.
The same adhesion to the Hebrew
scriptures which had influenced Ush-
err brought leading men of the older
church to the same view; men who
would have burned each other at the
stake for their differences on other
points agreed on this: Alelanchthon
and Tostatus, Lightfoot and Jansen,
Salmeron and Scaliger, Petavius and
kepler, inquisitors and reformers,
Jesuits Jansenists, priests and rab-
bis, stood together in the belief that
the creation of man was proved by
scripture to have taken place be-
tween $500 and 4,OO4 years before

Wife-BeaterS in the CITY,

A detective at the police station
said: 1T is not often that YOU hear
of u man in the country beating his
wife. That pastime seems to be re-
served for city men. The public
doesn't know one third OF what is
going on in this line. We don't give
all of the complaints away. OF
course, the harder cases get into the
police courts, and the reporters air
them; but there are so many cases
which are hushed up only TO break
out again. There are women who
occupy good social positions whose
husbands, from some cause or other,
become brutal and beat them like
slaves. The woman doesn't make
any complaint herself, tor she is
ashamed to. Butsome OF her friends
stand it as long as they can, and
then come down here and report.
An officer is detailed to go and see
the family Nine times out OF ten
these women. who are black and
blue, appeal tor the brutes who made
them so, and the man plays the baby
and begs. Any man who will whip
woman is coward, and as soon
as he sees an officer he weakens. The
best remedy, in my opinion, for wife
beating is the whipping-post. But
you would open your eyes if / told
you some OF the names We have on
our books who are in the habit of in
dulging in this pastime."
