RELIGION NOT THEOLOGY.
People Impressed rs Never Before
with. of Life.

New York Herald.
1t might be safely asserted hat there
never was an age of such religious fervor
as this. We are not optimists. but imnar-
tial critics. when we say that the average
man Is more interested in finding out
whether or no he has a soul. and IL so.
what Is to become of IL, than ever before.
The largest hall in New York can be read
lily filled if the subject discussed is the GER
tafnty of two worlds and the possibility OF
communications between them. The OBJ
attractive quality of these and similar top
les, and is forced TO the conclusion that
the general appetite for Information con-
corning the future mas become almost alb
normally whetted. In some respects it is
the most devout and the most reverently
inquisitive age of which history bears
record. SkepticiSm wells it's face because In
is impotent; ridicule sneers in private. but
seldom openly; sarcasm has discovered that
the edge OF its sword is dulled. Right or
wrong, pleased with fables or not, this
teased and fretted world is looking anx-
iously for some light which the pupils OF
Christendom do not as yet furnish. n
greed for facts concerning Tomorrow, and
the solicitude with which men and women
watch for them are so pathetic that they
are almost tragic.
Accompanying this new phase of life IL
an indifference to theology and 10 conven-
tional worship. Preachers are not appar-
emily aware of the changes that are aking
place in the public mind. They wonder
why their pews are not filed and attribute
il to the Indifference OF the people 10 spir-
itual things. But when two tables are
spread. one with food that satisfies. the
other with food that falls to do so. IL is not
surprising that the hungry go where they
can get what they want; and it is mere
blindness for the preacher to declare that
no one is hungry because no one asks for
the food he provides. There is no love of
theology, no reverence for creeds in this
generation. but there is a longing for infor-
nation on the subjects indicated. And IL
the clergyman insists on theological discus
sion he simply imperils his usefulness.

Men or Women Nurses.

DR.. ]. NJ. Taylor. in Therapeutic Gazette.
There are very few good pen nurses to
be had, and perhaps IL is just as well not
i firmly believe that a woman can con-
troll a sick man better than a man can, at
least in the capacity of nurse. In most OF
the hospitals abroad men nurses are BAN
ished and only women used. Then, again,
the class OF men who will take up Lurs-
ing is, as a rule, very unloveiy. We all
know OF a few admirable exceptions TO
this, and some Of the best men nurses /
ever saw were colored or mulatto men. I
had occasion TO select a nurse for a pa
tient who was himself a surgeon In the
navy. When / asked him whether he would
prefer n man or a woman, he promptl
answered, "A woman, by all means; men
nurses always smell either of hairoil or
whisky" ana this is pretty much the case.
There are men who need a male attend
ant for special and particular reasons. and
Il is very difficult to get the right man, L
assure you. But wOman's special voca-
ton is to nurse, and If she has he'd the
right kind OF training. both mc~a'lv nd
technically, il produces an exceedingly
fine result, and II Is my pleasure ~ Jes,IIy
in behalf OF not a few splendid women
who have taken up this career and who
adorn Ii exceedingly. although their re-
wards. except in their own consciousness.
are few.

POOLING THE BARBER.
An Instance Where the Business
Proves Improbable.

view 1Ork Herald.
Now and then one comes across one Of
those genial, sweet-tempered people,, the
very contact with whom appears to la
the world run smoother and sends a glow
OF OF s bns : c4grslng along the veins; one
lures, you know. that have the effect of
pervading things wherever they happen to
be.
That was the kind of a man this was,
and he pervaded a barber shop at the time.
His nice, round body just filled the big chair
comfortably. His plump face was so full
OF dimples that it actually embarrassed the
man with a razor. He smiled so much that
he was in continual good luck not to have
a mouthful of lather.. Nothing saved him
provoked by the stories trickling into his
ear from the lips of the barber himself. 1t
was the first time / ever saw a man in a
chair laugh at the BARRIERS stories. Most
men grow suddenly deaf or CURLY resent

black regarded the pleasant intercourse
with plain disfavor. The process of being
barbered is an exceedingly solemn one.

proachable men become silent, moroSe, sus-

the case may be, while in the BARRIERS

humor of the barber and the wond arful
charm he appeared TO exert upon his jolly
customer / also remarked the universal
disdain and profound disgust on the faces
of the other men,.
Finally, as all nice things must have an
end, the last story of the humorous barber
had been duly laughed at, and the last
touch of the brush had been given 10 the
departing customers coat. When he
skipped lightly out, he seemed to leave a
great hole of silence and gloom behind him.
But this was only for the moment, then
the humorous barber, who had been silent
ly contemplating his own deep, facetious
nature for a few moments, got down to
earth by emitting a yell that made every
body jump.
He's got my watch and chain!" cried
the excited man, breaking for the door
without hat or coat.
The humor Of the barber was irresistible
this time. Those who had not smiled be-
fore laughed with q heartiness that would
have delighted the genial, whole-souled
rollicking gentleman who had just creased
the wheels of time.

miller; he opened the door and received
the King.
The latter Immediately wrote in French
the following note to General Couer, col
onel of his foot guards:
by a kind of miracle 1 have escaped
from my assassins, and am now at the lit
tie mill of Mairemont. Come as soon as
may be. to convey me from here. L am
wounded, but not badly"
The King experienced some difficulty in
f1nding a messenger to take the billet to
Warsaw, but at length succeeded. Without
a minutes delay. Couer. repaired to the
mill, followed by a detachment of guards.
On arriving there he found the King sound
asleep on the ground. covered by the mill
erS cloak. The reader can imagine all
that ensued-the surprise of the miller and
his family when they discovered whom
they had treated with such scant courtesy;
the delight of the King at the happy end
ing OF the night of peril; the rejoicings in
Warsaw when the citizens welcomed back
their sovereign. Ais we'll that ends we'll,
and so ended this strange story of TIE alb
duction of a King.
