A FORCIBLE DISCOURSE.

al church enjoyed sermon of unusal from the new pastor, Rev Otis Barker. On account of our press of matter, last week, it was crowded out. Rev MT Barker chose his text from Eccle. , I,
 sKeep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God" Among the points brought out by the preacher were the following: Keep thy foot, that is, in en- tering Gods house, take heed to what you are going to do. Think what it means to approach the mercy seat, to worship the living God. Go not into Gods house as thoughtlessly and light ly as you would go into schoolroom, or as you would go into breakfast-room to take meal with your friend. Go into Gods house with considerate, cir cumspect, reverent feeling. This is
 A SERIOUS BUSINESS,
 no mere summer holiday excursion, take heed to what you are going to do. It is serious business because it is duty. God has given you an immortal soul, and this immortal soul must be fed or it will surely die. God has made your soul as we'll as your body and bids you feed them both. Can your body be warmed if you stay away from the fire? Can it be fed if you refuse to come to the table? Can it's thirst be relieved if you will not stoop at the refreshing spring?
 IT IS A SACRED DUTY #-- to clothe your body and nourish it with stimulating food; then how much more important the soul! This sacred duty of feeding the immortal soul cannot be fulfilled in any other way than by feed ing it at the table of the Lord, which is found in the Lords house. It is useless to try to find another way. No hone service with the newspaper can ever take the place of the old fashion of going to church. The religious paper, which we generally reserve to read on Sunday, is thousand times better than the mammoth so-called Sunday editions of our secular press, but the religious paper can never take the place of the Sunday services in Gods house, and he

 of it's rightful place and robs himself who tries to think that it can. This going to church is grand old fashion, | it dates in these New England states ! way back to the first Sunday that the | Puritans. unable to land at Plymouth, held services upon an island just of the shore, and this grand old fashion has come to stay. Let each and every one, who has found, through long years of ripening Christian experience, this privi- lege of worshipping in Gods house growing dearer and vet more dear, thank God right here this morning for this noble duty, this glorious privilege 1 OF GOING TO CHURCH.
 l Coming into Gods house is a serious matter, because it is the house of God. The true church is, in every sense, the house of God; but, we may ask, "Is it true that God dwells in His house as He l d,ualIo ;n nn othar nlace2 Is not God

Packages are divided by Mrs. Grun-
dy into three classes-genteel, vulgar
and nondescript. Genteel packages
are such is can be carried through
the streets by well dressed persons
without causing the slightest desire
to dodge around a corner or slip into
the nearest store when well dressed
friends are seen approaching. a
book neatly done up in brown paper
and surrounded by string of some
aesthetic hue or a magazine wrapped
in an united cylinder are eminently
genteel packages.
One is naturally rather proud of
them than otherwise. They argue
literary tastes and the possession of
a certain amount of available cash
over and above ones monthly sti-
pend to butcher, baker and raiment
maker. For a lady bonbon box is
very desirable package, or any
small, tissue covered purchase from
the jewelers., or cardcase from
the stationer's. Kate Fields Wash

ALettcr From I,adv some-.e,

Lady Henry Somerset, who reached
this country too late to attend the
worlds congress of representative
women at Chicago, wrote in answer
to an inquiry as to what she hoped
from the congress;
The outcome of the woman's in
ternational congress will be in part
tuch fraternity of good women as
the world has never seen. 1t has
been believed Ill the past that the
separation among the dependent sex
would be perpetual, but as an un-
natural and enforced Dependent
caused it, wise and thoughtful in
dependence, combined with the sys-
tematic organization of women for
purposes of the highest and best,
will be its cure. In the world Of
philanthropy and reform the com
bined energies of the leaders among
women can affect such marvels OF
amelioration as far outrun the power
of imagination or of prophecy. A
guild of women in each locality,
based upon the golden rule and in
touch by means of worldwide or
ganization, will become the rallying
point of those uplifting forces that
yet shall purify, protect and bless
the homes of every nation and urge
forward that universal brotherhood
for which all true hearts long.

The Cigar Was a Good One.

A man whose face was intelligent.
but whose clothes were shabby and
whose bearing was Enthusiastically that
of a man who had shed every respon-
sibility and was taking life as easily
as he could-a city tra1np-walked
comfortably along in Union square.
AS he walked he saw upon the ground
the discarded end of q cigar. There
was more of it than a smoker usually
throws away. While he made no
particular demonstration over it, the
tramp was evidently pleased to find
it. He placed it in his mouth and
walked on with just a trace of ella
ton added to his manner of habitual
unconcern.
After walking a few steps he
thought he would smoke, it. He
paused in front of a man who wa,
sitting on one of the benches reading
newspaper and asked him for a
match. He lighted the cigar carefully
And when he had it fairly alight and
going he took it from his mouth anG
held it up and looked at it calmly but
critically with the air of a connois
seur, and then he lifted his face slight
| ly and blew the smoke into the air
1t was clear that he enjoyed his enc
of the cigar and approved the taste OF
the purchaser,-New York Sun.

The Importance of a Decision.

The secret of getting through work
is method. Order, it has been said.
is Gods first law; let it be yours. Do
not let your work accumulate upon
your hands. 1t is not work that kills.
but arrears of work. Work put off is
work put on with heavy interest.
Sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof" 1t becomes intolerable if it
be laid upon tomorrow.
If | may recommend syou three
rules for saving time and economic
ing strength, they shall be these:
Answer letters, keep appointments,
make up your minds. In the affairs
of this life prompt decision is often
more important than right decision.
One man makes up his mind and acts,
it may be, wrongly, but if so he finds
out his mistake, corrects and retrieves
it before another man has acted at
all. 1t is possible to waste a great
amount of time by thinking, and
still more by talking over actions.
First thoughts are sometimes wiser
than second and generally wiser than
third.-Contemporary Review.

to be well adapted to the inspection
of mines and trenches at night. The
lamp or lantern is in the form of a

made of tin. Tiny cells forming a
battery are placed in this tube and
connected in special manner. The
light is inclosed in six plates of glass
at the top of the tube, and the bril-
llancy is regulated by a screw at the
lower end.-New York Telegram.
