through Palmer house window to cool his brow. II don't see how you live un- der the artificial heat that find every where here. The New York hotels were ovens. If your meat was too rare all that was necessary was to let it stand on the dining room table a few moments. l ask ed the head waiter to bring me @ ther- mometer as sat sweltering at dinner one day. It registered S9o. With the heat that great in the summertime it would be quite intolerable. Here you sit sim mering in rooms that are guarded against any breath of fresh air from out doors, while you are dressed warm enough for an arctic. winter. What wonder you shiver and cough when you get out of doors. The magnificent train in which l came here from New York was steam heated, and heated like 8 volcano. The hotels here are just as bad. If every one lives in such & temperature what wonder is it that your complexion is baked and there is no color In your faces, and that you die of consumption and pneumonia"
 Dr. H. Peters, of Saxony, has publish ed some very interesting and careful ob- servations on the influence of the chief meteorological elements of climate on chronic diseases of the lungs, made by himself at Ottenstain, 400 feet above the sea, where A large nulnDer OI LuDeT- cular patients passed the summer under his care. The climatic clements of which notice was taken were the temperature, relative humidity and barometric pres sure. In chronic phthisis and chronic ca tarrh aggravation occurred on the colder days, and concurrently with a rapid fall in the mean daily temperature. It also occurred with high atmospheric humid ity. The days on which no aggravation took place were those with low relative humidity and a greatly diminished mean relative humidity, prevalence of warm winds and a low percentage of azone.

 What is the Relation of the W. c. Ts5 U. to
 the Church?
 Concluded from last week.3
 Granted that in the ages since the two characters have not always been com- bined in the one personality. There have been many reformers who have lacked the vital ife-principle, and there have been many more christians who have em- phasized the necessity of eternal life in the individual soul, and have, neverthe- less, failed to see that the logical out growth of that eternal life must be the de- struction of all evil, everywhere. There have been Boanerges, who tore down what they could not build up, ~and there have been rapt saints, so lost in the contem- plation of the heavenly Jerusalem, that they have failed to see that the first bush ness of Christ-like follower is to make this earth ready for the descent of that city. But the ideal is still the Master, who tore down only that He might build up, but who never for one moment ques- toned that the tearing down was as much the Divine province as the building up.
 Oh, if but His church through all the ages, had literally followed" Him what sad anomalies, what hideous contradic- tions we should be spared the sight Of to- day! The church and slavery side by side !. The church and the saloon side by sidat The church and social impnrity side by side: The church and political corruption side by side! The church and poverty ; the church and misery; the churais and wrong; the church and oppression; the church and greed of gain; the church and monopolies; the church and red -throated war the. church and the subjection of the weak to the strong. How ones soul sick ems at the record! Do we not recognize in each, and in countless other things toler- ated as necessary evils in the world to- day, the implacable foes of the chnrch of Christ, and is 1t not directly contrary to the Divine purpose that the lion and the lamb should thus lie down in peace to- gether, the lion still the ravening beast of prey, and the lamb only escaping it's rate as his victim, through meek acknowl- edgement of his necessary supremacy, not as 'tking of beasts" but as king, in the
