BIBLE THREATENINGS
EXPLAINED

Takes up every sO-called "orthodox" text and
proves that all the passages that are ever en-
poyed as missiles against Universal Salvation
are perfectly in accordance with the promises
OF the Bible. With bible Proofs" in one hand
and Bible Threa eniDgs'' In the other, any Uni
versalist will be armed 'cap-a-pie" and thus
armed lone can chase thousand and two put
ten thousand to flight" 1t is the most valuable
OF documents for distribution among those who
think the law contradicts the promises. 1t shows
c0nclusvely that there is not a text in the Bible
that sustains the doctrine of Endless Torment.

!, c1EReYMAN's aKNocK oUr."-

A c1ERGyMAN's sKNocK OUT."-
An Episcopal clergyman from Charles
ton S. G.. August D. Prentiss by name,
was found in the gutter on Spruce
street. New York, at an early nour
THURSDAY by Policeman 7. A. Logan.
Prentiss was lying in dazed condl-
ton and was unable to explain nus
trouble. so he was taken to the STATION
house. He revived later sufficiently to
tell an incoherent story of his trouble.
II seems that after the meeting OF the
Christian Endeavorers in Brooklyn; ne
came across the bridge and, it being o
fine night, started to walk uptown TO
see the metropolis by starlight: He
stopped in saloon and got drink,
and then another. He fell in with
talkative companions who were at
tiacted by his clerical attire and silk
hat. That is as far as ne can remem-
ber. He asserts that Knockout drops
were given him. His appearance bears
out the statement. He cannot remem-
Der the saloon ne went into. He gave
his name as Johnston, of Frankfort
street. New York, to the policeman,
but also gave his card, which bore MS
real name. When arraigned in the
Tomlas Police Court he was still In a
dazed condition. He was not put ID
the pen. out of respect for his clotn,
and spent his time making marks IN
small note book. He was fined $40
and discharged by Justice Mott.
while in Chicago Mr.. Charles l..
Kahler, prominent shoe merchant OF
Des Moines, Iowa, had quite serious
time of it. He took such severe cold
that he could hardly talk or navigate, but
the prompt use of chamberlain's Cough
Remedy cured him of his could SO
quickly that others at the hotel who
had bad colds followed his example and
half dozen persons ordered it from the
nearest drug store: They were proiu,sye
in their thanks to Mr.. Kshler for tell
inc them how to cure bad cold SO

shooting stars- OF Meteors.

When we get down to talking Shooting
stars, we begin to brush around in the
realm Of something which all know some.
thing about-at least, a great deal more
than we do about supposed fiery lakes in
such gigantic worlds as Jupiter. While we
may think that we known all about shoot
ing stars, the following will show that
there are bypaths in every branch Of
knowledge which even the wisest among
the common herd know but very little
about.
For an instance, Flammarion has an
nounced that the visible number of shoot
ing stars which go sizzling through the
upper strata OF our atmosphere every "a
hours is not less than Z, 500, 600, and that
the telescope nleteors increase this num-
Der to 100000, 900! Professor Hardness,
making calculations on the same subject,
estimates the average weight of these so
called burning stars to be only one
grain. Herschel says that their average
height above the earth is something like
% miles and that they disappear as soon
as they strike the dense portions of our at
mosphere.-St. Louis Republic.

Ancestors

The search after ancestors inaugurated
by the Daughters of the Revolution and
Colonial Danes has developed strange re-
lationships. A very high and mighty per-
sonagc, in tracing out the various descend
ants of a famous Revolutionary general,
whose collateral descendant she was proud
to declare herself, found that the direct
descent ended in Il poor charwoman whom
she had been in the habit OF employing by
the day. 1t was a lucky find for the latter,
TOR her large hearted and generous connec-
ton, exemplifying the old adage that
blood is thicker than water, proved a YER
liable Lady Bountiful to the family. She
educated the children, found a promising
opening for the son and pensioned off her
poor relation, whom the many reverses of
health and fortune had quite broken down.
1t was a great good to arise from what
many deem q useless fad.
Mrs. AS experience was still less salts
factory. Formerly a believer in the direct
transmission Of character, she has changed
her ideas, since she found in her pedigree
q declared criminal, proving that in Amer
lea it is not safe to place too much reliance
on ones ancestors.-New York Tribune.

THE EVILS OF ovEREATlNG.
Unless Neutralized by Exercise High Feed.
ing Is Extremely Harmful. H

Unless Neutralized by Exercise High Feed.
ing Is Extremely Harmful.
I assert that it is the duty Of the good
housewife to keep down the appetite of
her husband, writes the Rev. F. S. Root
In The Ladies' Home journal. Particular
~ is this necessary in the cases of we'll to
do professional and business men. In the
families of mechanics earning low wages
such a warning is almost wholly unneces-
sary, but 1t may be said Of most men in
good circumstances that they eat too freely
of rich food. If men would begin careful
and systematic physical culture in early
youth n continue the practice through
life, good health would be the result.
Beyond the age of 40-at a period when
SO many are physically lazy-the superior
value of exercise is apparent, but ordina-
rily this is just the time when the hygiene
of athletics is neglected. There is no rea-
son why a punching bag, rowing machine,
pulley weights and other apparatus should
be relegated to college boys and clerks.
But, having done good deal of work in
his time, it is almost impossible to per-
suade a business or professional man turn
Ing 40 to give any sort Of attention to
physical culture if such training has been
previously neglected.
Hence l say it is the duty of a woman
to keep from her husband all rich COM
pounds that will ultimately ruin his diges-
tion. High feeding is occasionally neu-
tralized by hard exercise, but in the alb
sence of the latter it is mischievous in the
extreme. If your husband will stand the
treatment, begin by switching off from
the heavy breakfast Of steak, hot rolls, po-
%tatoes, etc., and set before him eggs on
toast, oatmeal and coffee.
