JOYFUL, NOT AsCETIo.

The Friar's GirdIe and a Long
Face Not Christian Necessities.
Rev. c. B. Wilcox. pastor of the First
NJ. E. church, preached an interesting
sermon yesterday, taking for his text: ,.
This beginning of miracles did Jesus
in Cana, of Gaili!ee, and manifested
forth His glory."-John ii, IL.
Jesus Christ performed miracles
chiefly for two reasons. First, to prove
his divinity; and second. to show by.
his treatment of physical ills his method
of healing spiritual maladies. Both OF
these reasons are good. The case is
this: A man appears before this audi
ence to say. II am teacher come from
God. come to tell you of your origin,
the purpose of your being in this world,
what possibilities are in your natures
and how they may be developed. L
come to tell you that pardon of sin is
lasting life within your reach" In
these questions you are deeply inter-
,ested. But Immediately you inquire,
'.By what authority do you come?
" here, sir, are your credentials? How
do we know that you are not base
imposter? There have been such. aud
|. there may be again. You look very
much like the rest of us, and grave
doubts are entertained that you know
more of these questions. than we do.
And unless ne can furnish satisfactory
evidence, you refuse to accept his teach
ing. Now, Jesus Christ appears among
men to make the highest claims ever
made by any being on earth. either be-
fore or since. Other men had claimed
to be the subjects of divine coinmunica-
tions. They had prefaced their declara-
tons with thus saith the Lord, ac-
knowledging themselves to be but in
Struments. This was tue Of the

DRESS MAKERS BILLS.

Women Protest and Men Kick
Over the Mckinley Law.
Lucky the woman who has the re-
ceipted bin for her new autumn gown.
The Mckinley law will make a
mighty difference in the size of dress
bills.
Here is an illustrations:
A few weeks ago a clever woman,
who is good at drPSSmaking, could get
herself up very petty. stylish. Serv-
iceable gown for something like SO.
She could make neat comfortable
jacket for about S.. Then she could
make becoming hat for S2.75 or So.
Buy pair of tan-colored gloves for rs
cents. which would look nearly as well
as 50 -palr, and start out serenelv con-
scious of looking neatly and becom-
~ attirpd.
OF course this is reckoning from
very humble point of view. but that is
the point of view of the woman who is
most interested in the tariff iaw-the
woman who earns her own living, and
cannot afford 10 indulge in the poinpS
and vanities 10 any great extent Yet
she is usually Self-reSpectlng woman,
who takes good honest pride i'll her
appearance, and is willing to make a
great many small sacrifices in order to
look well dressed.
Look Over the Figures.
She does not buy a gown without a
great many QualmS as to its variability
ana its becoming qualities. She often
chooses her bit of material in a shop
window, and then goes to work to save
every spare cent she has until she can
get enough together to buy it. An adj
vance i'll price is very serious matter
to her, and ii often means wearing her
shabby gown a few weeks longer until
she can hoard up the extra ''only a few
cents a yard" as the clerk diSdainfully
remarks. But about the ten-dollar gown.
Here it is:
She could get ten yards of quiet
| check or aplain, Serviceable color in a
| pliable stuff, with at least enough wool
i'll it to make it soft and nice, for 80
cents yard. Her Innings would cost

ings for 1889. The gross earnings, January

were only s., $50, 774.92, showing an increase
during 1889 of 81, 1875, PAS. ~, enabling it to
declare a / per cent. half yearly bonus on
its bonds, the interest Of which is guaran-
teed by the dominion government, and
showing that during last year the road was
very prosperous.
The Burlington 81 Quincy annual state
ment. including the Burlington & Missouri

penses l6,569,3l4, and the net earnings
5000 $685.
The Cleveland Plaindedler says 1t will be
found necessary. without much doubt, in
the long run, to apply the per diem system
among the railroads themselves as well as
between the railroads and consignees. The
present rule of settlement fo~ borrowed
cars on the mileage basis-$$4cent per mile
hauled furnishes motive for expedition.
A road with loaded car belonging to an
ether on its tracts pays nothing for the use
OF it so long as it stands still. But let the
basis of settlement be changed to liked
rate per day and very considerable in
crease in the average daily movement may
be looked for.
