AN IDEAL FRIENDSHIP.
1t Exists Between Enthusiastic Youth
and Contented Age.

It Exists Between Enthusiastic Youth
and Contented Age.
One of the pleasantest of friendships
is that between young and a middle
aged woman. (There are no old wom-
en- nowadays.) If the two women are
OF exactly the right sort, the friend
ship is almost an ideal one. There can
be no jealousy. The elder woman is
too old to be envious of the younger,
either of her loves or her companion
ship. The younger feels the superb
ority of her youth too keenly to care
for the regard cherished by the older
for her contemporaries. But each pos
sesses charm to which the other re-
turns with never ceasing delight
The older friend smiles over but re-
joices in the freshness and ardor, the
eager anticipations and daring impetu-
oslty, OF her companion. She speaks
no word OF encouragement. 1t is beauti-
ful, this demanding youth, this splendid
audacity, to which all earthly achieve
ments are possible. 1t is the highest
earthly wisdom to recognize that all
this enthusiasm is needed for the les
sons which Divine wisdom shall teach.
~Ah0 VIC youHR WOHldn, pouring out
her hopes and expectations, her pas
sionate longings and wistful imagin-
ings, feels strongly the mellow gra-
ciousness which experience has brought.
Dlmly she wonders at the content that
is always the most puzzling TO the
youthful heart Contentment should
only be found upon mountain peaks,
she thinks
Yet the large-hearted charity which
endures all things, believes all things,
and hopes all things is an ever-refresh-
ing surprise. Sometimes as she breathes
its fragrance the vague question stirs:
"Is it possible that this charity, this
content of themselves,ar are attainments?
Is it so? Can it be? Oh, nor
No. not yet. For youth is the long
ing; for age, the knowledge that the
longing was never meant to be satisfied
here. Each is best for its own time.
In such friendship each grace finds its
complement in the other.-Harper's
RaZar

NOT YET CHRISTIANS.

II We Cannot BE Christians We should Bs
Honest Enough Not to Call Ourselves
such.
The Christian Union, in an editorial
review of Goods Fool" in which the
Dutch novelist, Martin Maarten, satir-
ICES the hypocrisy of the professed
Christian civilization of the age, has
these striking words:
IF we cannot have perfect society,
he seems to say, let us at least have an
honest one; let us confess that we are
not yet Christian The constant use of
the word Christian to characterize
civilization still full Of barbarism Ia
misleading and dishonest When we
cease to think of ourselves as Christian
we shall have taken the first step to-
ward becoming in fact what we now
are only in name The conflict between
Christianity and barbarism is still in full
tide of battle; there have been great and
noble gains, but the fight is won only
in name. The old barbarism of selfish
ness, lust and cruelty lives under new
names There are thousands of churches,
but there are thousands of slums as
well; there are armies of professed
Christians, but too many act as If there
had never been a Christ, and as if the
brotherhood of man and the spiritual
unity of the race were myths"
This is an admirable idea If We
cannot be Christians, let us at least be
honest enough not to call ourselves
such. The real blasphemer of Christ
he who puts him to the most open
shame-is not the profane swearer, but
the man who, be he priest or layman,
pretends to be Christian while indif-
ferent or inimical to every earnest effort
to make the ethics of Christ the law of
the social and industrial system--New

PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY.

The Kingdoms OF the Earth Can Become

One sabbath evening, not long ago,
had the pleasure of listening to an
able discourse based upon the following
text from the book of Revelations:
And the seventh angel sounded; ani there
were great voices In Heaven. saying. the king
doms OF this world are become the kingdom OF
our Lord, aud of His Christ: and He shall reign
for ever and ever.

Days of Search for BIRD Lovers.

The army of birds in autumn in
measure escapes the notice of the casual
observer, because at this season birds
are wilder and less voluble than in sum-
mer. In autumn they congregate, and,
roaming about, seek remote and unfre-
quented places. In summer they are in
pairs, widely dispersed, indeed, but tied
to the spot that harbors the nest and
young; and, whether impelled by de-
sire to cheer the brooding mate, by wish
to distract the attention of enemies
from her, or by other emotion, the male
in summer utters songs of more or less
Importance.
So it happens that in summer birds
are noticed by all, while in autumn
they are remarked by him only who
knows where and how to seek them

GOLD-BUG LOGIC.
The Gist Of the Entire Opposition
Silver.

The Gist of the Entire Opposition to
Silver.
A Boston dispatch says: president
II. NJ. Whitney, of the West End Street
Railway Co., mailed a letter to the
presidents of all the street railway
companies in the United States setting
forth that if silver should become the
established currency O. the country the
effect would be to advance the price of
nearly everything that railroads pur-
chase, while fares would probably not
be increased He, therefore, requests
that those addressed will use their in
huence with the senator's and repre-
sentatives in their states and districts
for the repeal of the purchasing clause
of the Sherman act"
Here is the gist to the entire opposi-
tion to silver. These eastern moneyed
men understand perfectly well that an
increase of currency will increase the
value of labor and all its products.
Prices will be advanced, money become
plentier and cheaper, the people will
pay their debts and thus get out from
under the financial thumbscrews of the
past In the Chicago Herald of January
-' 10 SnC oACAdA report OI the oOutn side
street railway lines The president
saws: The cost of operation was 81
500, 431, leaving net earnings of 81 ,59I.-
511." In other words out of every dol
lar taken in by the company 81 cents
was clear profit The other 63 cents
paid operating expenses, repairs, taxes,
etc. 1t would indeed be too bad if the
value or prices snould advance and the
poor street car companies not get more

7 benefit the party? There are mere

then do saloon keepers become officials?
Christianity has its deadly foes, but
Christians have themselves to blame

policy of their government
Finally. remember there are but two
sides to all questions 'He that is not
for me is against me-" Governments
must either progress toward Christ or
retrograde toward the evil one. The

INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM.
steps Are Being Taken to Organize a Ma
tiOnal Direct Legislation League.
Certain prominent reformers in the
east have inaugurated a movement look
ing to the advancement of the cause by
direct legislation. They have. with that
end in view, issued call, from which
we clip as follows:
The rapid progress in this country of
the idea of direct legislation has prompt
ed the undersigned and associates. act
ing as voluntary and provisional COM
mittee, to suggest the formation of a
national direct legislation league.
We propose that the league, strictly
non-partisan organization, shall have
as its sole object the incorporation OF
the initiative and referendom in law
making In the furtherance of this
end, while establishing bond of union
among its members, the league would
naturally adopt all possible worthy
nneans-such as systematizing the work
of advocates and spreading informant
concerning the movement. Far from
detracting from the efforts of friends of
direct legislation in any political party,
the league would extend to them the
aid arising from the united strength of
the many members of various parties
who regard putting an end to our unre-
stricted representative system as the
essential preliminary step toward all
other reforms We, therefore, extend
an invitation to men of every party and
to those of no party to join the league.
Upon application, by mail, there will
be sent to all interested, who may ap-
ply therefor, copies of proposed con-
stitutional amendment for the state of
New Jersey, with statutes providing
for the referendum and the initiative
The document will answer as a help for
friends in other states. In itself it
stands as an argument for the practical
bility of the system of direct legisla-
ton. Address, with stamps for reply
and for the leagues fund,

GOVERNMENT RAILROADS.

An Object Lesson Teaching What the Rail-
roads Could DO II They Would.
While it is true that the nationalist
tion of the railroads is not yet an &C.
complished fact, nevertheless the travel
ing public is sometimes treated to a
taste of the benefits that would accrue
from transportation at cost, based upon
a large volume of business
Just at this time the Kansas CITY,
Fort Scott & Memphis and the Yazoo &
Mississippi Valley railroads have pooled
their issues and combined to give the
public an opportunity to visit New Or
leans during the Mardi Gras festivities
at cost which approaches the rates
paid by the travelling public in Austro-
Hungary where, under governmental
ownership, the celebrated zone system
is in operation. The cost for the round
trip is almost exactly one and one half
cents a mile each way, from Kansas
City to New Orleans
In Hungary, the cost for the zone
from 149 miles to 454 miles, in first class
compartment, express train. is s.. 81,
being 2.51 cents per mile for 149 miles;
2 cents per mile for 1872 miles, and Os4
cents per mile for 454 miles In Aus
tria the cost for from 155 miles to 1856
miles, is 2.09 cents per mile.
1t must be borne in mind, however,
that the Austro-Hungary rates are for
a continuous ride over one road, while
the trip to New Orleans is over two dis
tinct roads, with Mississippi river
bridge and much costly engineering
construction Then the accommoda-
tions and equipage in Europe do not
begin to compare in point of comfort
and elegance with those of the United
