The Church Fights.

| Rev. John L. Scudder, pastor of the Jer

DR.. Briggs. Hesaid:
"Once more the disciples of Christ are
preparing to do battle with one another,
and before this conflict is over I fear many
people will be seriously damaged. 1t il
with great misgiving that look upon the
coming trial of DR.. Briggs for heresy. This
is purely theological quarrel, warfare o.

New York is all astr now over these
theological fights. The interest is of the
kind with which men watch contests,
whether they be between horses or men.
Unfortunstely for the churches engaged in
these controversies, the ministers hauled
before the bar appear to the masses as per-
secuted; hence they have the popular SYM
pathy-at least from the non-professing-
Christian class. which class all churches
endeavor to reach. If these alleged heterc-
dox ministers we're in unlawful callings, &C
cused of swindling, immortality or other Of
fences, the drift of public thought on the
subject would be different, bnt they have
been actively following their ministerial
professions. They have all boon working
towards the same and main end. Their
various modes of theological opinion are
inc;dentals. Hence the attacks upon these
ministers place them in the light of martyrs,
according to popular comprehension, and
weaken the churches. es.-RichmOnd State.

Then, utterly hopeless and despaifing,

was terrible to witness.

then she placed his head in her lap, where

hot and burning, that come only from a
strong suffering man.
Not until tho torrent had imewhst SUB

her warm lips to his forehead.
'sMel, brother, am sorry! If could
only help you. I-Mel-" and her voice
trembled piteously.
No answer from the bowed head, only a

"But think of last night! Can you blame
her very much?" she ventured timidly.
"No, Dulce, no. I am to blame-the
miserable guilty wretch that am! But

"you did not turn from me, while she, my
betrothed wife, recoiled from me in horror

IT could never be otherwise to you,"
she answered, simply.
"God bless you, Dulce. You have been

''Nothing, nothing-oh, Nail" and his
name died away in low, piseous moan,
while he looked at her in amazement, a
faint hope kindling in his eyes. She flung
out both her arms despairingly, aud the
longing, passionate cry that escaped her
lips thrilled him through and through.
"Mel-Mel! Why won't you love me?"
One swift bonnd, and she was clasped in

was buried on his breast.

MORE ABOUT WoMEN.-A w,iter in the
Detroit Free Press has made some new dis.
coveries in the ways of woman.
She will marry man to "reform" him
and though clothed in rags declares she is
happy with the brute.
She can't throw stone because she
isn't built that way, but she can fire a
world OF pathos into an appeal for a new
dress that will burst the toughest purse
string asunder.
She is usually more adept in making
matches than at striking them, and while
she may not know how to sharpan knife,
she can in two minutes hone up her tongue g
in a way that will make it two edged
sword.
She may not be able to jump a four-rai
fence, but she jumps to conclusions, aud
nine times out Of ten she gets there while a
man is reasoning it all out.
She can quicken a mans ment | faculties
by giving him peces of her mind, She
doesn't seem to feel the loss, eithes.
Irus, she spends much time before the
glass; and SO does man. only his too otter
has bead on it.
According to some, she was called wo
man because che brought woe to man.
This Interpretation, however. is not only
scriptu,al, but is not borne out By the facts
She is called conundrum; but We viii
never give her up-never.
With all her faults, we love her still.

ANATTJRAL CONCLUSION.

1t is natural that those who have been de-
ceived by the various nostrums that are

mand more substantial testimonial than
the simple declaration of those who are in-

ing the justice of this demand, the Swift
