1t is Just as bad to lose heaven by

Rome's Grasp on Our Cities.-Years
ago we heard Prof. Henry B. Smith
say in the classroom that the Roman
Catholics of New York City paid
count in New York shows that out ol
one-tenth of the city taxes and held
nine-tenths Of the city offices. The last
twenty-five aldermen twenty are
either Catholics or of alien birth. We
do not know where to look for a large
American city which is governed by
citizens born upon American soil.
Our great cities are practically foreign
colonies in the midst Of American
States with which they have little
community of faith, morals or social
habits.

Protesting christians sometimes at
tribute their spiritual poverty to Ma
ture. One is penurious, another pas
sionate, another cowardly, and they
say it is because they have been less
generously endowed by Nature than
others and cannot help it. 1t would
be quite as reasonable for one whose
fathers tai l., to which he has free &C.
cess, is daily loaded with wholesome
food to 90 about the streets with gaunl
bony fingers and CHASTITY copntenance
starving to death, and saying "I can
not help it," God is able to make q
-penurious man liberal, generous and
benevolent, or cruel man as gentle a.
lamb, or a passionate man as calm
and serene as the bosom of noun
tain lake when the winds are hustled
to rest. lie is able to make all grace
abound toward all His children.-New

Samuel WilberfOrce,

Samuel Wilberforce, Bishop o
Oxford, was commonly called "Soapy
SAM" One day, as the story goes, he
was guest in some great house, when
a forward child, all infant terrible, not
frightened by the great mans presence
trotted up to him and piped out in O
child's voice, "Why do people call you
Soapy Sam 81 Instead of standing on
his dignity, he appreciated the humol
of the thing, and seizing the little
creature he drew her upon his knees
and answered in his softest voice, 81

Master PIN and Lady Needle.

The test of a blessing is not in what
1t secures to US, but il is in what it
secures to others through us. God
does not give US any treasure to hoard
Ior ourselves, but he gives to us in
oraer that we may give to others.
w nether 1t ls the blessing of a new joy
or the blessing of a new sorrow, It
ought to make US newly sympathetic
with those who mourn or those who
rejoice, and newly tender toward all.
Unless we are made more Christlihe.
to our fellows through that which we
count a blessing sfrom God, we have
reason to question whether that which
mas been sent to us has yet proved q
blessing. Selected.

SOME THINGS MONEY CAN Nor Do
Money con not buy monument
that will keep an unworthy man from
being forgotten.
Money that has not been honestly
earned brings with it no blessing.
Money alone can not give honor
Jewels purchased by the wages OF
shame are badges of infany.
Money cannot give any man peace
of mind who does not respect him
self.
There is not money enough on earth
to atone for the wrong of making one

New Rules for Exerxbodx.

Rev: Charles Simeon, the dis
tingulshed preacher of the English
church, once said that the more he tried
the more he felt the importance of adj
herring to the following rules:
10 hear as little as possible what is to
the prejudice Of others. =
TO believe nothing Of the kind till I.
am absolutely forced to it. q
Not to drink in the spirit Of one who
circulates an i'll report. =
/, Always to moderate, as far as I can
tne unkindness, which Is unkindness
toward others. q
Always to believe, that if the other
side were heard, very different ac-
count would be given Of the matter. q

Very few people have any definite
conception of their own sins. They
discover them clearly enough in others.
it would be profitable to change iden-
titles occasionly.
A true faith can no more be seper-
ated from good works than the light
Of the candle from the heat, or the
heat from its light.

No two Christians have just the
same trials. This man fights his
battles on one field that one on
another. Some reach stable and
assuring belief only through al agony
of doubts and fears. Others appear to
have native capacity for believing in
supernatural things. The former
class, however, may find it compara-
lively easy to yield obedience to the
practical morality of the gospel
while the latter may be always in
danger of breaking through the
restrictions of Gods law. On the
whole, things are equalized. The law
of compensation reaches up even into
the highest ranges of religious exper-
ience.

Medical Science,

The Pail Mall Gazette tells OF a doc
tor on man-of-war who had very
simple method of treatment. He
would tie piece of tape around the
waist Of the complaining mari ner, aud
command him to him to declare wheth-
er his pain existed above or below the
tape. If above an emetic, and if be-
low dose of salts, followed as a mat,

When.

When religion isn't used it is a hard
matter to keep it. .......
When you are tempted to do wrong
think.
Whenever you have chance, re-
turn good for evil.
When you feel discouraged, take
your case 10 the Lord.
When you feel weak, ask of the
strong Arm above.
When you want to hear a goo6
sermon, pray for the preacher.

We sometimes hear it said that pray
does not change God. In remote
sense 1t is not true. God sent Isaiah to
to tell Hezekiah to put his house in
order that. he should die. Hezekiah
prayed and wept, and God sent Isaiah
back to tell him he had heard his
prayer and seen his tears and would
add to his life fifteen years. God In
allhis plans has promised to .nswer
prayer. Prayers in one sense changes
Gods purposes, or the results of his
purposes. because to answer prayer is
Gods greatest plan, his strongest de-
cree. -

Here is suggestion for our every
day life. 1t is. sound to the core
"Pray when you feel like it; pray till
you feel like it. Deny yourself and
give when you are in the spirit; deny
yourself and give till you are in the
spirit" There is no other rule than
this for us. When we would do good
evil is present with US, but we are moi
on that account to defer doing good
No, the fight against the devil is in
doing our duty when not inclined
to it. Go to church when you feel like
staying at home and spending the day
in quiet reading. Got on your knees
when your thoughts are wandering tc
the ends of the earth, and stay there
till you feel the presence of God
Thus and only thus are we to become
conformed to the will of God. Thus
and thus only will duty become set
tied habit, and habit real delight.

The School Journal says: "Thirty
years ago William Crandall prepared a
book entitled Three Hours School a
Day. He wrote: 1T is to make men,
not to fill them, that we want schools.
Our public school, therefore, should
embrace the science of man, the
science of agriculture, the science of
mechanics, the science of housewifery,
anu the moment we enter the domain
of nature our range is unlimited
He was deemed "a crank man to
be avoided, because he proposed that
textbook learning should be set aside.
But those who knew him felt that lie
was an inspired man, who had but a
few years to live, and who wanted to
speak the truth as he knew it while
looking into the grave he was soon to
fill"

/ feel It to be unnecessary, but will never

that Is not absolutely necessary. l trust I
shall have presented for my signature an act
substituting salaries instead OF fees for coun-

decreased ability OF the people to pay. The

BRINGING THE MOON CLOSE.
A tic Crystal Mirror Proposed by =
French Scientist.

A Gigantic Crystal Mirror Proposed by .
French Scientist.
M. Francis Deloncle, a French savant
and deputy for the Bases Alpes, has a mar
velous project on hand. which he hopes to
see completed in time to astonish mankind
at the Paris exposition in 1900. Though
the moon is 24O, 600 miles distant from the
earth. nj. Deloncle thinks he can construct
an apparatus which will enable us to exam
ineethat luminary at very close quarters.
The idea has been ~expounded by the au-
thor before a French scientific society, and
M. Deloncle says. in substance. that the
only obstacle to q close observation of
celestial bodies is the relative i'm perfection
of instruments, and that all that is required
is an enlargement and improvement Of the
present instruments. Astronomers, says
III. Deloncle, have reckoned that the image
of the moon can be brought quite close to
the earth by means Of q crystal mirror
eight meters in diameter, but which, owing
to the thickness required. would weigh
about eight tons. He has consulted various
opticians in Paris, and they are prepared to
execute the work before the year 1900.
There remains, however, the question of
the structure which would be required to
hold this gigantic mirror, and upon this
point M. Maurice Loewy, a distinguished
French astronomer. says that, while in
principle III. Deloncle's scheme is possible,
there are enormous difficulties in the way OF
its realization. the chief OF which. 10 far as
the exhibition is concerned, ia that the ap.
paratus must be erected ON a mountain
about two miles in height in order to secure
the proper atmospheric conditions. If this
and other difficulties were s~urmounted,
says M. Loewy. there would be some very
remarkable results, for it would be possible
to clearly distinguish in the movement OBJ
jects about She size of a four-story house.
