keithley's lecture yesterday. The def
milton of the term theosophy offered by
the believers in the doctrine is wis
dom religion, which offers to the world
theory OF nature and life founded
upon the knowledge acquired by the
.sages OF the past. of all nations and Of
all times. AS gathered from Mr.. Keith
iey's lecture, the theosophists believe
that the spirit of man is the only real
and permanent part of his being.
Everything else in his composition
Is fieeting and transitory. Between
the spirit and the Intellect, below the
one and above the other, is the flame of
conscience, subordinate to the spirit,
yet ruling and directing the intellect.
The object of the religion is the attain
ment OF Spiritual culture. which is pos
sible only by the living down, the sub
lugation, OF all mans grosser instincts,
his desires, his passions and his worldly
aims. Men thus Systematically trained.
1t is held, become elevated above the
ordinary, and attain clear insight into
the immaterfal and spiritual world.
mastery over various forces in nature
which are beyond the ken of the ordi-
nary man. There is. the theoSophistS
believe, an all-pervading ethereal sub
stance-''the astral ight''-through
which the consciousness of the believer
becomes sensible of matters and forces
which ordinarily would be far beyond
his understanding OF the reach of his
perceptions. By means of this "astral
light theosophists, although widely
separated, may communicate with one
another-may even spy out and clearly
know even material substances which
are effectually concealed from the eyes
of persons in the immediate vicinity.
This Is, in brief. the belief of the the
osophists, and they believe that their
testimony to q supers ensuOus truth is
so clear and convincing that disbelievers
in its teachings should give it candid
examination before condemning it.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Crown Lots" opened to standing room
last night at the Bijou. The play is the
broadcast kind of farce-comedy, of the
Col. Sellers type. thrown together about
as Systematically as old shoes in a back
yard. Some members of the company
were fair, and Charlie j. Slime, as DR..
Surekll. was bright, spontaneous
comedian. Ross Snow, as Culpepper
Meek, the boomer of prairie
town lots, sustains the leading
part very we'll. Eloise Willard, the
star. dances gracefully, but. if she must
sing, she ought to learn some new songs.
A musical specialist, whose name was
not on the programme. gave pleasing
performance on the violin and banjo,
and some clever limitations. There was
much about the play that pleased the
large audience. Same bill ali week.
Tonight "Olivette" will be produced
at the Harris theater, and will be given
for the week.

whose heart was filed with pity.
All others had left the church, but that
one Christian assisted the unfortunate
girl to her own carriage and took her to
a comfortable home. There she was
revived, and, warmed 10y the influence
of that Christian spirit, told her sad
story as narrated above. The poor girl
longed to return to life of virtue. Her
father was telegraphed and he came
immediately, for there still remained a
corner IN his heart for his erring
daughter. The meeting between the
two was too affecting to be described.
The old man now lives on Prospect
avenue, in Milwaukee, and thither he
returned last night with his daughter.
1T sounds like romance, doesn't it"
remarked the lady who brought about
this meeting. when she had finished her
story. "but l wish there we're more To-
mances of the same kind"

BE A MAN.
A Strong Sermon Upon Charac
ter and What Constitutes 1t.


At Plymouth church yesterday morn
ing Rev. Charles Thwing spoke as fol-
lows; Matt. ", Is. Neither do men
light candle and put it under bushel,
but OH candlestick."
The candle, the bushel, the candle
stick-these are the three things before
us. The candle, which is Gods light,
the bushel which, put over the candle,
puts out the light; the candlestick,
which aids the candle in giving light;
the candle of Christian character,
putting out its light. causing its light to
shine far and wide. These are
the three thoughts which l would
put before you for this half hour.
Christian character is the light. Christ
calls His apostles the light of the
world. Christ'S life is the light of men,
Each Christian is a star to receive
hight and light to give forth. But, also,
the Master would not have you blow
your own trumpet of praise. Real
merit is usually silent; sometimes, /
think, too silent. Merit which is not
real is usually blatant, always too blat-
ant. We use the curb too much, the
spur too little. We are basnful about
making ourselves felt. We might pull
an oar in the boat of social order, but
we prefer to be passengers, watching
the dipping Of the silver blades. Many
of us. especially women, shrink from
publicity. Notoriety is evil and repu-
tation is a good, if only it is a good
reputation. A foul deed of shame is
committed in Minneapolis, and the next
day from New York to San Francisco
millions are reading of its horrible de-
tails. 1 he deed was wrong; the motor
riety of it is also wrong. A hOmOcide is
often less bad than the influence of the
shocking picrutes of it. Murderers and
adultererS do less to deprave the public
morals than the Police Gazette. The
Christian life and Christian character
should be known. Be sure your life is
Christian! Be sure your life is Christ
ian! Then make it felt. Your name
may do more good than your lips; your
character than your presence; your rep
utation than yourself. Some or US may
have a stronger influence in places
where we shall never go than we have
at home.
We young men want influence, we
want to make ourselves felt. The de-
sire is natural. One who lacks it is an
imbecile.- But to shine we must have a
light. One who rows must have good
mnscle, long wind. Young man, put
forth influence, make yourself felt.
But to put forth influence you must
have it. to make yourself felt you must
be power. Therefore, be yourself. be
genuine, be true, be man. Buckle
yourself down TO the girdle of hard
work. Be patient. Care nothing about
gold. care everything about duty. Be
not self-conscious. Lock your life 18th
Gods life. If you are selfish you will
have only self, you will be buried in
the narrow grave of selfhood. If you
are unselfsh. marble shafts on many a
Gods acre will be a memorial of your
character. Write glory on your flag,
and it will be trailed in the dust. Write
duty on its folds, aud it will go for
ward the banner of victory.

A soda-Fountain Novelty.

swedish drink. whferisbest describ ed
as tasting exactly as violets smell. The
secret of the flavor belongs to the man
ufacturerS.
1t is not derived in any way from vio-
lets-that is quite certain. The violet,
when crushed, gives forth none OF that
grateful perfume which is somehow
manufactured within the veins of the
plant and exhaled from the blossom.
None of the odor of viOlets is obtained
from the flowers. A distillation of
their juice gives an acrid compound of
no pleasant odor. The perfume is all
manufactured artiicially aud Otis root
is at its base.
Probably orris root is the base also OF
the f1avoring which enters into this new
drink.
