There is less personal interest now
than twenty-five years ago in the per-
sonal man. Then missionaries were the
heroes OF the world, but the idea now is
not so much the salvation OF the souls as
it is to Chrstianize the nation, to edu-
cate then, make their conditions better
The individual churches are becoming
more expensive, they are expanding. My
church is now larger matter than my
church OF twenty-five years ago. Again
we are getting more respect for what we
call national religion. There has been
comparison OF the religions OF the world.
We have had our religious parIlaments,
and 50 we have gathered the ilea that
we are to exchange among us that winch
is best instead OF having the great uni,
versal Christ. But over and against all
this come the words, 'Ye must be born
again. The words that come from the
lips OF Christ to every man and then
those words OF Christ: The world is the
field
Religion is the unity OF man and God.

achieved that unity, Jesus CHRIST

THE SHEATS LAW.

The executive committee of the Ameri-
can missionary association, after careful
consultation and taking legal advice,
has concluded to test the constitution
atty of the Florida "Sheat's law" for
bidding, under severe penalties, the CO.
education of whites and negroes. With
no spirit of defiance to the state authori-
ties, but by a friendly understa nding with
them it will seek, by a single violation of
the law, to have it brought to the tri-
bunal OF the supreme court OF the United
States for final determination. One of
the teachers will give instruction to his
own child in the same room and class
with negroes and suffer arrest, affording
an opportunity of bringing the matter
before the courts. The other white chill
dren will, for the present, be taught in a
separate building. The missionary asso-
citation, having planted itself on the
ground that in church and school no dis
tinction should be made on account OF
race or color, could not consistently do
otherwise than carry this question to
the supreme court for decision. In main.
tenance of this principle it suffered in
Georgia the loss of state aid i'll the At
lanta university OF $4,000 year. 1t is
hoped that now the question will be
finally settled by the supreme court. The
friends OF the association will support it
in taking this course VT. Chronicle.

Race Degeneration.

The characteristic Of what is call
ed in human races morbid heredity,
which is simply degeneration, is
an abnormal tendency to variation
in the posterity, which becomes in
consequence of physical, mental and
moral faults, progressively capable
of adapting itself. In the artificial
races of domestic animals the result
of degeneration is often reyersion
to a primitive type of the species
with capacity to recover the old
adaptations. The designation race
has in this case been really given to
variety, the hereditary qualities of
which had not the fixity that char
acterizes race. No reversions are
observed in the natural races. In
the human races in particular de-
generation is not manifested, what
ever some authors may have said
about it, by returns to ancestral
forms, but rather by evolutionary
disorders bringing on somatio de-
formities and functional perversions
incompatible both with the adapta-
tons now necessary and with ances.
trail adaptations Science

Home Training.

The youth who is launched upon
the world without the advantages of
good home training is placed at a
sad disadvantage to start with. He
will often give offense without in
tending it and cause embarrassment
when he means to please. And the
laws of etiquette are like the laws
Of country-every one is supposed
to know them and is punished if he
does anything to break them. For
this reason it is proper for man to
pay attention to acquiring the art of
etiquette, and in one way it is more
requisite for him than it is for a
woman, for man can never remain
passive in society, but has number
of active duties to perform.
Neither can he pick up so many
hints upon demeanor as a woman
can. He has not the feminine gift Of
seeing without appearing to look, of
covering a mistake almost before it
is made. He has no eye in the back
of his head. Neither does he appear
capable of carrying on a converse
ton while taking in everything that
is going on around him. Under these
circumstances it is plainly necessary
that man should study etiquette.
He cannot imbibe tho manners CT
society unconseiously, so his best
plan is to find out exactly what he
has to do. Grace should not be con-
sciously attempted, but VIXEN ease
of manner is once obtained grace
is likely to Observation-Disclosures

How . Woman swims.

There is this popularity about
woman s swimming-she will either
swim ''dog" or frog" fashion, the
former being the easier, the latter
the correct way.
A woman rarely If ever uses the
overland stroke to any advantage.
There are women known to have
done so, but they find it impossible
to keep it up or mako any progress.
All men use it to the exclusion of
other methods. That it is swifter is
shown, as swimmers all adopt it in
racing. This may be another reason
why all women swim slowly. The
arm in this stroke is brought back
ward, then over the head and plung.
ed forward, the shoulder being en-
tirely out Of the water at each stroke.
This motion seems to preoipitate the
body through the waves, the action
being rarely graceful, but forceful.
It is exactly as if one were pulling
himself through the water by means
of a taut rope.-Chicago Record.

Martha Washington Died In q Carrot.


Martha Washington did not die in
the same room as her husband, but
in a room in the garrett, under whose
sloping roof the heat was insuffer-
able in summer and the cold not
slight in winter, lighted only by a
dormer window.
The lower corner of the door of
this attic room is cut off. This was
done for the convenience of the cat
which was Mrs. Washington's sole
companion in her lonely vigil of
1S months after the generals death,
companion which the old general
himself had often petted.
