grasshoppers can easily be driven like

A REMARKABLE CASE.
How Man Whose Throat Is Closed i,
Kept Alive.

How Man Whose Threat Is Closed IL
Kept Alive.
There has been for some months in the
Emergency hospital at Detroit man who
is unable to swallow, and yet seems to suf-
fer no particular inconvenience therefrom.
The patients name is Martin Hannenberg,
and the doctors are watching his case with
great interest.
Hannenberg's throat is INSTRUCTED, and
when he arrived at the hospital he had eat
en- nothing for couple of weeks and was
in a starving condition. The physicians
were not long, however, in devising plan
Tor enabling him to take sustenance The
success of this was SO great that Hannen-
berg now looks as well as any one. Heis a
great smoker and ayers that his pipe never
afforded him more solace than at present.

the apparatus which has prevented the pa
tient from dying. At one end of the tube

The Old Theology.

While rejoicing in much that
may truly be called progress in the
spirit and the method of the church
es, we love the old time theology.
because it makes more of the Word
of God than it does of human rea-
son. Doubtless it is an "a priori'
method of reasoning, but if God
created world and pronounced it
"good," when he gave his Word, we
shall not need to qualify too much
our appreciation of it. In the lines
of Homer we read of shields and
weapons which the gods gave their
favorite heroes; and such equip
ment is the only one the bard deems
it worth while to infinitely describe.
The gifts of heaven are not subject
to such heavy discounts as the New
Theology seems to assert. What if
upon the outer rim of our grand
mothers best china, presented to
her by loving friends upon her we'd
ding day, there be here a nick and
there crack in the enamel, we will
do her friends the justice to assert
that they were not there when first
spread upon her board. Granted
that we cannot produce the teapot
and sugar bowl in their original
state, we can produce some
pretty good reasons for believing
what their original state must have
been from the known character and
intent of the givers.
We love that preaching which
makes much of the Bible and little
of human substitutes, which quotes
Moses oftener than Herbert Spencer,

For the Central Presbyterian.
Augusta One Hundred Years


Mr.. Editor,-Particular accounts
of past times are always interest
ing. 1t does not comport with the
scope of general history to descend
into the minutia of personal mar
ratives and private life. Did it do
so, the world could not contain
the books that would be written"
The most entertaining history which
has been published in recent times
is Maculay's; and its great charm
arises, not only from the exquisite
skill with which it's style has been
wrought, but also from its embrace
ing special matters of information
which are not usually found in such
works, such as sketches of persons,
descriptions of scenery, references
to family affairs. Put while he
designed to extend his account to
the period of living memory, it so
grew upon his hands that it con-
sumed his span of life, and yet,
vastly to the worlds loss, failed to
finish the first great reign he sought
to portray.
For this reason diaries and fami-
liar letters have always been
favOrite kind of literature. By the
minute occurrences of which they
take note, we are enabled better to
understand how our forefathers
lived, the nature of their intercourse
with one another, the things they
regarded of greatest importance,
what they thought of the times
which we're passing over them, what
they hoped and feared respecting
the future in short, we can more
readily enter into their experiences,
whether of sympathy or aversion.
When composed by persons of in
telligence and judgment, they are
of the highest value also to the his
torian. For the small scale on
which they are graduated, they
present to him a more complete
picture of events. BY their refer
ence to the conduct of individuals,
the fluctuations of public opinion,
and the strifes of parties, they assist
him in judging of the motives of
men. 1t is often a matter of regret
that the visions Of happiness which
fioated before the eyes of our ances-
tors, were never realized but it is o.
matter Of consolation too, that
many of the dismal representations
i'm which they INDUCED, have never
come to pass.
l give below a letter of Rev. Will
liam Wilson, former pastor of
Augusta church. Thinking it might
excite pleasing emotions i'm the
minds of descendants of his old
parishioners, and of others dwelling

work have recently appeared in the
papers"
Since the inception of this great
movement, the Synod's Committee
has never held a meeting which
was not seen reported by some men,
Der in our church papers.
Words and IJorks is also referred
to the Minutes of the Synod of
Virginia, which met in Roanoke,
October, 1891, where full report
of the Synod's Committee for 1890
81 is given, compilation of in
teresting facts which Words and
Works is necessarily anxious to OBJ
tain.
Another surprising statement is ::
" That sooner or later an appeal
must be made to the churches for
means to carry this work on"
Further reference to the Minutes of
Synod will reveal that the evan
gelistic committee recommended to
Synod, to wit:
LIST. Synod prosecute this work
and pledge itself to raise from its
churches during the next year C91 =
1927 the sum of $4,000.
End. "Synod direct ITS committee
on Synodical Evangelization to APP
portion this amount among it's
different churches, and suggests
that collection for this object be
taken up on the third Sabbath in
November
These recommendations were
adopted, and the whole report APP
proved. minutes of Synod of
Virginia, page 1879.
In the Central, April 9th, 1892,
DR.. J. H. Rosebro, chairman of
Synod's Committee, publishes list
of the churches that have contri-
buted to the Evangelistic fund. At
the conclusion, and there is a long
list of churches, the chairman says
"We make no appeal except to
those churches which have sent us
no contribution" From this con-
clusion, and Words and Works ignor-
ance of and apprehension about
an appeal" we are constrained to
believe that whatever church Words
and Works adheres to, has promptly
and handsomely contributed to the
Evangelistic fund.
A careful reading of the Central
and Christian Observer would, we
doubt, add such knowledge to the
evident zeal of Words and Works, as
to further impress it with the "noble
work" which it is quite sure Synod's
evangelists are working in her
bounds, and enable Words and
Works if necessary, to make an in
telligent appeal" ***

Thy VIII, Not Mine.

it were mine to choose in life place,
Dear Lord, twould be
A quiet corner where, like dew, Thy grace
Might fall on me-
Not in the ranks of those who glory win
In battles front;
The tumult and the strife the deafening
din
OF wars fierce brunt;
Not in the crowded mart of pomp and
Midst life's unrest
But in the valley where cool waters flow
Serenely blest;
Where day by day my life might, like the
flowers,
Thy love unfold
Which turn to Thee in sunshine or in
showers
Their hearts of gold,
Decked as the spotless lilies of the field
In beauty fair;
Like themmy joyful worship to Thee yield
With naught of care.
But, Lord, Thou knowest best Thy chill
dren's need,
And Thou alone
Their steps can guide, and onward safely
lead
Ger paths unknown.
The place Thou givest me, then help me
fill,
dare not choose
Content from day to day in Thy blest will
Mine own to lose.

The Gospel Of Forgiveness.

On looking back upon the Valley
of the Shadow of Death thro' which
I passed so short time ago, 7 feel
my mind grasping with frmer grip
than ever that everlasting Gospel
which for 50 many years I have
preached to you. We have not been
deceived. Jesns does give rest to
those who come to Him. He does
save those who trust Him. He
does photograph His image on those
who learn of Him. I hate the
Christianized infdelity of the mod
ern school more than ever, as 7 see
how it rends away from sinful
man his last and only hope. Cling
to the Gospel of forgiveness through
the substitutionary sacrifice and
spread it with all your might, each
one of you, for it is the only cure
for bleeding hearts. Peace be unto
you as a whole, and peace be to
each one.-Spurgeon.
