Corporal Piety.

We like the phrase. We believe in
the thing. We consider that mans re-
ligion to be of superficial and i'll
instructed sort which does not include
a careful study of, and close obedience
to, the God-appointed laws for the
preservation of health. There is di-
vine order to be observed with refer
ence to the body as well as to the soul.
A large part of sickness is proof Of sin,
not because of lack of faith or wrong
beliefs, as 30 many vainly talk, but be-
cause of lack in the matter of right
works. Sometimes, of course, it is the.
PERSONS parents who have sinned,
rather than himself. But it ought to be
more generally understood than it is
that all avoidable sickness is sin, and
all attainable health is duty. Many
good people seem utterly oblivious to
this fact. They prefer to have good
time, they say, to being bound down
by such strict rules about diet and exer-
else and similar matters. But after a.
while, when it is too late, they find that
the pleasures of sins against the body
are but for season, and that the viola
ton of these laws written in our physi-
cal constitution is visited with very
strict penalties. He has the best time,
in the long run, who observes the
rules.-Zion'S Herald.

Forgiveness of Injuries.

An old clergyman of considerable
and varied experience once expressed
the opinion that the point of Christian
morals in which even good men most
generally failed was in the forgiveness
of injuries. They were prone to re-
taliate whenever opportunity offered,
or if they forebore so fragrant breach
of the law of love, yet they rejoiced in
the calamity of those who had injured
them, thus transgressing a principle OF
Old Testament ethics prov. xvii:5).
Such persons should remember that the
true heaping of Goals of fire upon the
heads of ones enemies means the sub
iecting their enemy by assiduous kind
ness. 1t requires grace to persevere in
a course of this kind, but if asked for
from on high it will be given. DR.. T.
L. Cuyler, in one of his papers, puts
the matter in very striking manner,
and we are quite sure that he does not
overdraw the picture. Hear him !.
"There is your neighbor B who
has wronged you, and in way not very
easy for human nature TO bear. There
is only one style of revenge that Chris
tianity sanctions. The very next time.
that man gets into trouble, go and give
him a helpful lift. If he is sorely
pinched in purse, offer him loan; if
his business runs ow,lsend him some
customers; if you see a bit of Grape on
his door-bell, hasten there to offer him
your sympathy and your service. Do
that, and you have killed an enemy and
made friend at one shot. No weapon
has such 'sure fire , as the weapon OF
love. "-ISelected.

Jeremy Taylor on RecreatiOns.

In his essay upon Scare of Our
Time" under the head of " Rules for
Employing Our Time," Jeremy Taylor
gives the following wholesome advice:
Let not your recreationS be lavish
spenders of your time; but choose such
as are healthful, short, transient, recre-
alive, and are apt to refresh you; but at
no hand dwell upon them, or make
them your great employment; for he
that spends his time in sports (amuse-
ments), and calls it recreation, is like
him whose garment is all made of
fringes, and his meat nothing but
sauces; they are healthless, changeable
and useless. And therefore avoid such
games as require much time or long at
tendance; or which are apt to steal thy
affections from more severe employ
ments. For to whatsoever thou hast
given. thy affection, thou wilt not grudge
to give thy time. Natural necessity
and the example Of st. John, who rec
reated himself by sporting with tame
partridge, teach us that it is lawful to
relax and ,unbend our bow, but not to
suffer it to be unsteady or unstrung.''

And the song melodiously

"Nearer, o, my God, to Theel"
In my eyes the tear.drops glistened
As 1t stirred the twilight dim,
And wondered as listened
If 1t brought them nearer him.
Were they like the wanderer, weary,
Song and life in sweet accord,
Resting in the darkness dreary
In that nearness to the Lord2
Had his spirit ever sought them,
To be sighted or denied2
Had that dear song ever brought them
Closer to the Savor's side2

Felt its meaning deep and sweet,
And my weary heart would soften
Singing at my Masters feet

Nearer Thee in gain and loss
Nearer Thee when l am kneeling

Nearer Thee when love- descending,

FOUR MASKED BANDITS.
They Commit Daring Bank Robbery
at TescOt, kansas-The Cashier
Is OyerpOwered.

SALINA, Kan, Sept. 1.-Tescott,
a small town on the Lincoln branch,
had an experience with bank rob-
bers to-day which rivals the most
daring exploit of the Dalton gang.
At the usual hour this morning
Cashier Scidmore opened the Bank
of Tescott, and a farmer entered
with 4 roll of bills amounting to
81 600, and made deposit. Fifteen
minutes later four masked men,
heavily armed, appeared at the bank
door. Two entered and began firing
revolvers into the walls and ceiling;
one advanced with a cooked pistol in
his hand and demanded the cashier
to hand over his cash. The vault
having time lock was not open yet,
but the money which the farmer had
just left was lying on the counter.
This was given to the robbers, and
they backed out into the street.
/ The noise of the shooting attracted
what few citizens were about, and
securing all the available guns they
opened fire from the opposite side.
\ lively battle ensued, and many
shots were exchanged. John Swar:z

medical aid reached him he was ex
hausted, and will perhaps die before
morning.
| Having completed the robbery
the robbers mounted their horses
and started in a southerly direction
The robbers were first seen under :

bank. a small boy saw them mask

CLARKE elected.
The Democrats Make II Clean sweep
I'm Arkansas.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Sept. 4.-Unot-
ficIal returns from forty counties show
that the Democrats have carried every
county by majorities ranging from $50
to 800. Carroll County, the home of
Powell Clayton, went Democratic by
$50. Gen. Clark returned this morn
ing from Helena. He estimates the
vote in the State to be about 135, 900
and says he is elected by over 10000
majority. All river counties. where
there Is II large Republican vote, went
Democratic. In Clepurne County the
vote is very close between the Demo-
cratic and Populist ticket, with the
chances that several candidates on
the local ticket of the latter's will be
elected. In Clark County the Popu-
lists voted for Remmell, the Republi-
can candidate for Governor, while the
Republicans voted for the Populist
candidate for the Legislature. The
vote is very close and will require the
official count to decide the contest
The vote throughout the State will be
about sc, 900 less than it was two years
ago, and at the same time the Demo
cratic majority will be larger. In this
county the entire Democratic ticket is
elected from 1000 to ] 800 majority. In
the country precincts the vote is three
to one for the Democratic ticket. In
Desha County, heretofore a Republi-
can county, not a single Populist vote
was polled, and the county returned
a Democratic majority of over 500.
Two amendments to the constitution
were voted for, one authorizing coun-
ties to levy a 3-miil tax for road pul-
poses and another authorizing the
Governor to fill vacancies in office by
appointment. Many counties voted
against these amendments, but it is
believed at State Central Committee
headquarters that both will be adopt
ed by small majorities.
A telegram just received from Craw-
ford County, where the Populists and
Republicans had out fusion ticket,
announces that returns from all the
precincts but one had been received,
and that all the Democrats on this
local ticket are elected by majorities
ranging from so to 200. Democracy
has made n clean sweep of Arkansas.
