Hereditary Taints.

One result of the labors of physiolo-
gists has been the clearing of the mental
vision, and the gradual comprehension
of the great, pervasive and potential fact
of "heredity." 1.-The sins of the fathers
shall be visited upon the children" said
Moses more than 5000 years ago. Proba-
bly, he comprehended in buta very small
measure the significance of his own
utterance. Not only do parents transmit
to children their mental peculiarities,
their moral tendencies, the features of
the face, the stoop of the shoulders and
the trick of the gait, but they pass on to
them their blood, their brain, their
glands, their very soul and life. We do
not mean to say that heredity is tyrant
from which there is no escape, and that
as is the parent in constitution and con-
duct, SO also must be the children to the
remOtest generation.
If that were one of the discoveries of
physiology, small thanks would be due
to the science from ovcrburdened man.
But it is not SO. The parent himself, as
is well known, can modify and make
worse or better both his constitution and
his character. Similarly, the child's
constitution and character may be
changed, until, by the operation Of the
law Of heredity itself, not very remote
descendant may be the antipodes of his
early progenitors. The discovery of an
existing inherited faint of disease or of
vice in child is not a cause for regret.
but for thankfulness. The disease faint
itself is, of course, to be deplored, and
so is the inherited vice; but its early dis
covery is to be hailed with gratitude as
pointing out lines of physical and moral
treatment which may lead to the prac-
tical enfeeblement of the faint or even
to its eradication. Hospital.

IN MEMORIAM,
Harden Paine.

Below we copy clippings from

the death of Harden Paine, which
occurred March 81, 1890. The
tenor of these clippings, the large
attendance at the funeral and the
decoration Of the casket and
grave which we learn were literal.
ly covered with the rarest flowers,
show the sympathy of the people
of Jackson for the bereaved fami-
ly and the high esteem in which
the deceased was held.
Only a few short months ago
Harden was in active business
in this place and looked the pict-
ure of health, but consumption
took hold on his body and its
work was rapid, resisting all med
ical treatment from the start. But
this afflictiOn he bore with pa
tience and when told two weeks
before his death that the end was
near, said, "I'm glad You told me,
/ do not mind it Bit" and from
that time never murmured, but
talked about his condition philo-
sophically without even the twitch-
ing of a muscle.
The news of this death was re-
ceived here with genuine regret,
and universal sympathy goes out
to the sorrow.burdened family.

1t is with the deepest regret
we write the above sad words.
It is always a sad duty to record
the death of those Just entering
into manhood but in this instance
it is particularly so. Only a few
short months ago he was in the
full vigor of Young manhood. En-
dowed with bright intellect, a
pleasing disposition, a strong NOR
al character and All energetic spir-
it, he had gone forth well equip.
ped to battle with the world, and
win the crown of distinction. To-
day he lies cold in death. The
fond hopes of the idolizing parents
are shattered; their bright visions
of his future are yelled in tears.
TO the stricken parents our
heart goes ont in utterable SYM
pathy, realizing only too we'll what
\
flower of promising manhood is
to bear. Such grief is beyond
power of mortal assuagp, and we
can but turn to Him "whO dOeth
all things WE'LL" and bow in hum,
bic resignation to His will, safe il
the promise that the journey il
not long, and that all will be again
united.
