IN an old geography printed in 1872 appears the following:
 California is a wild and almost un. known land. Throughout the year it is covered by dense fogs as damp as they are unhaalthful. In the interior are active volcanoes and vast plains of shifting snow, which sometimes shoot up columns to great heights. This would seem almost incredible were 1t not for the we'll authenticated accounts of travellers.

College Manners.

The conduct of some college men
boys, would perhaps be the better
title-is a matter calling for anx-
ious consideration by those who
are in any way responsible for their
guidance and direction. This is no
new theme. IT has always been one
which has exercised the attention
of college faculties
OF recent years, many concessions
have been made to the manly spirit
of the young men themselves and
to that of self-government, which it
was fondly hoped would prove to be
a solution of the vexed question
more satisfactory than any arrived
at by former methods. Nor has the
experiment been altogether unsuc-
cessful, having been fruitful of
much good, even if it has not ac-
complished all that was hoped for
by its advocates. 1t has facilitated
the internal government of colleges,
but not always improved the con
duct of the students abroad.
A notable instance of such mis-
conduct was afforded by some stu
dents of Yale i'm the early summer.

did their best to break up the pro-
cession by the free use of these
implements, and such a combina-
ton of yells and shrieks as only
college students can devise. Great
confusion ensued and there were
several narrow escapes from serious
accidents The frightened horses
were with great difficulty restrained,
and it required the application of
most vigorous clubbings to keep
the alarmed wild beasts within due
bounds in the cages Several of
the lady performers tainted from
fright and were only saved from in-
jury by the strenuous efforts of the
attendants
The affair was altogether dis
graceful and we hardly wonder at
the severe administrations of the
secular press upon the occurrence.

IL one GIRLS ENPERIENcE. BY Mary

In One Girls Experience" we find por-
trayed the experience of many girls-not
indeed in outward events, but in inward
struggles
Honor is a girl trained in fashionable
boarding school and graduating with the
usual amount of accomplishments snowy
rather than useful. She has really learned
nothing which can be turned to practical
account when she is left an orphan at the
age of eighteen. Her helplessness is pitt
able, but it is like that of many other girls
educated as she has been. She does not
have any branch of useful or ornamental
knowledge sufficiently at command to
teach it. She cannot sew, even to the ex-
tent of making a buttonhole. She knows
nothing of cooking, and when the question
of supporting herself must be solved her
first thought is to write for the press, but
of course does not succeed. At length
Honor finds snug home where she learns
to be useful. Frequent Quarrels with Janet
and Ethel exhibit disagreeable pride and
righteousness; but as Christian girl
Honor is sorry for her faults, tries to mend
them and nobly succeeds, until the reader
is inclined to love the character which at
first appeared so unlovely. And more than
that, another learns to love her too. But
this the readers must discover for them
selves. Mrs. Pennocks teaching is briefly
given in the following, which was written
upon a little white card, and handed to
( Honor, when she was about to leave foI
another home:

who carved the back of his statue as care

follower oTChrist; remember the old Jewish

quoted from, makes reference to the
fact which has attracted consider

decided that no more large bodies
of Harvard students will be per-

only does itinfringe upon the rights
of others, but it is too evidently
like the cracking of thorns under
a pot" mere hysterical giggling,
to be justified.
There has always been a wide
latitude accorded TO the escapades
of college boys, but there is danger
lest the free and easy manners
which are so often seen in young
people of the present day, and
which are considered quite the
thing in certain circles of society,
may rob those who adopt them of
much of their attractiveness.

couch on which they reclined, wash
ed their feet; Simon could not con-
sent. How characteristic of the
bold, impulsive Peter, self-willed
and outspoken? "Dost thou wash
my feet?" Thou, my Lord, wash
the feet of me? He protested that
he was not worthy of such a service.
But his humility was mistaken.
Jesus, without reproof, simply said,
what | do thou knowest not now,
but thou shalt know hereafter" Be
patient, and it will be made plain
to you. God is always dealing with
us in ways strange and inscrutable.
Thou shalt know hereafter" Nov
we know in part; but we shall know
even as we are known" eve know
that all things work together for
good to them that love God" When
Peter, with intense will, declared,
Thou shalt never wash nv feet"
What stubborn self-will i'm this?
Chou shall not ever Ito eternity
wash my feetl" Still there is no
reproof, only gentleness and pa
thence. Peter, don't you know, our
Lord would say, that greater sub
mission than this is needful to me?
"If I wash thee not" T. e., with my
blood and spirit, "thou hast no part
with mel" If you refuse to submit
to my washing, you will be forever
cut off, and have no part in my
cleansing and my kingdom. At once
Peter returns to his submission to
Christ, as impetuously as he had re-
nounced it. "Lord, not my feet only,
but also my hands and my head"
Anything, all things I submit to
you. | cannot bear the thought of
being cut off from you. Jesus said,
Gle that is washed needeth not
save to wash his feet, but is clean
every whit" Only the exposed and
soiled part needs repeated washing.
Once washed and made clean by my
saving power, you will but need dali
ly forgiveness for offences and fail
ures. Once we need regeneration
and Justification, and then daily we
need to come to the fountain, that
our daily sins and shortcomings be
washed away. If any man Ga saved

advocate with the Father, even Jesus

lowliest service. "The servant is

The Concealed Future.

Among many other foolish theo.
ries, is that which would have us
believe that as a result of repeated
and continued effort, has come not
only the development and enlarge
ment of our faculties, but that even
the faculties themselves, in their
very beginning, come to us as the
result OF wishing, and trying, and
endeavoring. That our eyes are the
product of our effort to see; that We
have ears because we have been try
ing to hear-and so on to the end.
If this be true, then in addition
to the faculty with which we re-
member the past we should long
ago have acquired a faculty by
which we might also foreknow the
future. Men always and everywhere
desire to know what the next hour,
and the next day, and the next year,
have in store for them but the future
still shut out from us.
When we take the higher Chris
tian teaching, that our faculties are
to US direct gift from God, it is
manifest that would have been Jus
as easy for God to have endowed us
with faculty with which we NIGH
know the future, as to have endowed
us with one with which to remembe
the past. But God has not seen fl
thus to make known the future to
us; and for very good and wise rea-
sons.
1t is not for us ''to know the
times and the seasons" and so each
day comes to us with newness and
freshness which could never be pos
sible had not God kept the times
and the seasons Sin his own power
A future which is concealed lends
to the present a zeal and an energy
which not only makes success pos
sible, but rewards every effort with
an immediate benediction
To foreknow the future would
render it impossible TO enjoy
the present Accidents and calanii-
ties which lie along our pathway
would confront us perpetually with
their terrOrs. Sickness which now
waits for us i'm our bed-chambers
would then dispel refreshing sleep
and Danish pleasant dreams. Pain
and petilence would stand perpetual
sentinels of the grave Of buried
hop g, and man himself would wish
to be dead
Ignorance of the future leads TO
humility. Eve has impaired to all
her numerous progeny the desire 10
eat of the tree of knowledge. This
desire to be oll-wise was then, and
still is, unwise. It is begottou of
self-exaltation and is devoid of bu-
mility 1t is better to humble our
selves and exalt God, that faith.
and hope and love may live.
In the uncertainties of the ptes-
emit and mysteries of the future we
find that largeness of possibility
