NO MAN L1vETH TO HIMSELF

No man liveth to himself; he could
not if he would. The covetous man
has 4 miser for his son, the light wo-
man has daughter fastening towards
the ways of shame, the uncIean man
poisons a workshop with his lecherous
imagination, the drunkard infects
whole neighborhood with his vices,
the swearer finds his little child, scarce
out Of babyhood, uttering bestial
oaths, and shaping his tiny lips in the
blasphemies which are the common
speech of the house in which he lives.
Who knows how far word may
travel? When it leaves us it is gone
forever. 1t has aoated away into the
blue heaven on wings Of its own, and
we could not recall it if we would. 1t
has set new thoughts stirring in a
score of hearts, and will travel on in
multiplying influence till the ears of
men are full Of it. Each man lives
in a huge whispering gallery, and his
whispers travel round the world,
growing iouuer Hs they 60, until they
fall back upon him like the reverber-
ations of distant thunder. The word
spoken in the ear is trumpeted upon
the housetop; forgotten by US, it is
remembered by others; dismissed by
us, it has leaped into life elsewhere;
and ON the threshold of another world,
where every idle word is known, the
speech Of a lifetime rolls hack upon
the spiritual year. Just as the phono-
graph treasures up the most delicate
infections Of the human voice, and
can reproduce them at the will Of the
operator, so a thousand minds have al
ready received the impression of our
words, and, if they were evil, share
them with us.-W. j. Dc,cson, IN the
Threshold Of Manhood.

THE QUESTION.

The manner Of living Eas nothing
to do wit the question whether farming
pays. The question is simply this:
"Does farming pay interest on the
money invested, and fair price for
labor bestowed?" The farmer boasts
Of his independence, and may take
day off when he pleasss, and gets good
good food and plenty of it, and his
calling is respected, and if his farm
does not yield large profits, it gives
comfort and health and home; and
nothing pays better in this country
than to raise farmers sons and daught-
ers.-Cincinnatus, IN the Ne,o York
Evangelist.

Life is periodic. It is made up of
cycles, Of grand currents that sweep
all around and then come back again.
If angels go out, it is only that arch
angels may come in. There are trans
it, backward eddies in the stream, but
the general current is onward, if only
we ourselves will keep true, and prove
steadfast. All who live know life is
a conflict; it may also be a victory.

thought he would make shrewd de-

Perhaps it belongs to the coroner" he
said aloud. "Not probable" he added,
on another thought. "a coroner awak-

a body recently killed would hardly ar
ray himself with diamond buttons. At
all events suppose must turn it over
to the authorities. In the meantime

the moment Holbrook picked up the but
ton a young man of fashion, who had
just returned from his club to his apart

coat and discovered that the buttonholes
of his right cuff were torn out and his
cuff button gone.

oath and asked himself, "How was that
done?"

The Great Revival at Trinity M.
Church.

The Great Revival at Trinity M. Il.
Church.
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
The great revival ct Trinity ME-. church
under Evangelist Harrison is still moving
on. The attendance and interest at the
meeting yesterday afternoon showed
steady advance. The work of this revival
is not abated by election matters. Al
though the third week is well on since this
movement was commenced, yet the people,
pastor, and evangelist do not tire, and
their efforts do not wane. The vitality of
the leaders of these meetings is certainly
wonderful. This church, with its pastor,
are seeking after the largest possible re-
suits for themselves personally and for
their families, as this great work goes on,
and they will not be disappointed, for it
| is clearly evident that those who are in
the midst of this revival working for it's
| success, have already secured a great bless
| ing. Other churches are shar-
ring in these blessings and the
| spirit of revival is now upon them. The
results of this spiritual movement can
only be reckoned in eternity. All the
people are welcomed to these services, and
if those obliged to go away, not being
able to get in, will only plan to come
earlier, they can be seated, and get share
of the good to be obtained.
| Last night Mr.. Harrison preached from
the words: "Acquaint now myself with
God and be at peace with him."
He urged upon the people the impor-
lance of securing for themselves person
ally those things that would do more for
them than could life at its best do. No
need that the grace of the gospel cannot
supply. Freedom, happiness, safety for
time and eternity, poured out in great
abundance for our needs this hour. Salts
fed, satisfied, satisfied, even this hour.
His description of the rich man dying
who had gathered millions of money dur
ing life, now dying poor and needy, was
thrilling. At peace with God was worth
more than money. He did not ask them
if they read their Bibles or prayed, and
said that John Randolph read his Bible all
his life and the last word he wrote was
''Remorse;" but he asked them to be al
peace with God.
Many were converted at the altar service
that followed. Meetings to-day at usual
