This year the Swiss government has
made new departure in the way Of
monopolizing manufacture. 1t has de-
clared the making of matches a federal
exclusive right. The gains derived
therefrom will not go into the federal
treasury. but will be expended. first.
toward improving the manufacture Of
matches, and. second. to reduce as
much as possible their selling price.
The use Of yellow phosphorus In the
manufacture of matches Is prohibited,
because 1t is injurious to the health of
the workmen employed in match fac
tories. and because 1t is, In many ways,
dangerous to the public. The sale of
matches In a retail way will be open
to all. subject. however. to such re-
strictive regulations as will prevent
misuse. the government supplying .he
retail trade exclusively. Federal legis-
lstfoD will regulate the trafic.

will be through the same influence.
Hundreds of evangelistic meetings were
| held by ministers and others attending
the convention, in factories, workshops,
and on the Streets creeds were lost sight
of; the cry was, "work for the Master"
One of the topics discussed was "good
citizenship" Being a @. E. implies be-
ing good citizen. A native of India
said, "Indis never would be brought TO
civilization unless the level of Christian
ity was laid upon it." The missionary
was a strong feature. No one could help
being missionary to hear the converted
heather tell of the darkness and igno-
rance of their countries, and the pray
ers for help, and especially to the young,
as being the ones who have the power 10
help. While heather lands need our
help, there is much missionary work to
be done among our own people, by GO
ing in person to those who are needless
and unconcerned, trying to persuade
them 10 enlist for Christ. A captain of
the life saving service was introduced at
one meeting and told how those noble
young people made their hardships
lighter by visits and literature. He
showed how we might "throw out our
life line" and be in the life saving SER
vice.
The sociability of c. Els was ably dis
cussed. We cannot do good work un-
less social distinction is unknown. We
must be one. We cannot accomplish
anything by getting others into our So
cieties and then in everyday life leave
them to their own devices. A grand
feature was the singing. Songs of praise
were heard from every quarter of the
city; on the street cars, in the stores,
public gardens, wherever crowd gath
cred could be heard their voices. At
each meeting thousands were unable to
gain entrance TO other the hall or tents,
when open air meetings would be held.
The Q. e. society was called a meeting
against the wrong, which never adjourns.
Ministers say the society has been more
help in their work than anything ever
done in our churches, training the young
to work arousing the older ones.
Many of the delegates fingered after
the convention closed to visit the notable
places of Revolutionary fame. On Bun
ker Hill's once bloody ground the peo-
pie were addressed by an American and
Britain standing between flags of both
countries. After the addresses the flags
were pinned together, showing harmony
and love between the countries. Ply
mouth Rock was visited by thousands,
and the bicyclists wheeled over Paul
Revere's route to Lexington.
Altogether the convention was a grand
inspiration to all workers, and patriotism
was wonderfully aroused by visiting the
scenes of so much strife.
Many are already looking forward to
Washington in '96, which promises to be
even greater, in numbers, than the meet
ing of '95. But Washington or any other
city cannot excel the hospitality and wei.
come extended by Boston. May the
| good work increase until every country
on the globe shall know the effects of it,
and be brought to the Master.

The Christian EndeaVOr Convention in
Boston.

The fourteenth International Conven-
tion held in Boston was one of the grand
est meetings our country has ever had.
From one small society organized in
Williston Chapel, some fourteen years
ago, to thousands of societies to-day.
Father Endeavor Clark certainly could
not but feel proud of the vast army of
young people assembled in this Conven-
tion, which has been the outgrowth of
his effort. The one society has grown to
thousands and spread through every
state in the Union, aud but six countries
in the world where the magic words
"Christian Endeavor' are unknown.
The city of Boston cannot be excelled for
hospitality; the Endeavor seemed TO take
possession of the city. An army Of C.
Els, with white caps and crimson bands,
was scattered throughout the city waiting
To be questioned by the stranger and
anxious to give all information. Some
one remarked, Railroad officials and
hotel clerks might learn lesson in cour-
tesy from these ever-obliging young peo
pie" All the famous historical places, Of
which Boston is so full, were thrown open.
Three grand simultaneous meetings
were held, in Mechanics Hall and two
large tents on Boston Common. Some
of the ablest speakers of the day were
present, among them Father Clark, ID.
l.. Moody aud Gov. Greenhalge, of
Mass, besides hundreds of others. Any
one with any Christian spirit whatever
could not witness the earuestness and
zeal which characterized these seventy
five thousand c. Els without catching
the spirit Of the meeting. One of the no
ticeable things in connection with G. E.'s
is their Christian Fellowship. Denomin-
alton and creeds are unknown in Endea-
vor work. They are all one body work
ing for the Master. One speaker said,
al ever the world WAS christianized it
would he through Endeavor work" and
we might add, if ever the prejudice
against other churches is overcome, il
