announcement was given. but Mr.. John

but lately recommended its mission.
The work that was so warped and dis
figured and shattered in the days Of the
apostasy, must be brought out of its tan
gle and Strengthened and started again
on its forward march for Christ and
the Church. In those far off days when
our Master ordained his disciples for
their work, the great command was
"Preach the Gospel to all nations and
all people. beginning at Jerusalem"
That command in yet to be obeyed.
How many nations have had the Cos
pei preached to them? How many peo-
pie understand it? What is the Gospel?
1t is the glad tidings of great Joy that is
FOR the entire world. Salvation from
sin. Christ the judge of all things, who
is to draw all men unto himself. God
the Father of the Universe whose ma
ture is love; the Holy Spirit which
must awaken our spirits and open our
understanding.
The mission of the Universalist Church
will not be accomplished until the Cos
pei has been preached to all people and
all nations. Not long since I heard an
Episcopalian minister say from the pull
pit, and he is good man and Christian
too, that in Japan alone there we're
nineteen different missions, yes twenty;
there are good Christians and bad Chris
tians there"
How any one can be Christian and
be bad have no means OF knowing, but
felt certain that the bad mission must
be our own. Perhaps l am over sensi-
tive; but constant association with or
thodoxy has shown me just how the Uni
versalist Church is esteemed among
other churches. No, it's mission is not
yet accomplished. 1t has scarcely be-
gun. After nearly nineteen hundred
years, the command Of the Lord has net
been obeyed. But we must begin at
Jerusalem, and tarry until endued with
the spirit from on high, just as the dis
ciples of old did. How we rebel some
times against the waiting and feel that
we are moving SO slow! Dear friends.
as soon as the work of the spirit is felt
the understanding will be opened that
the real, true Gospel may be received.
The purse strings will be loosened that
there may be means to carry on the
work.
Let us work with will for the ac-
complishment of the things we have
been set to do, and at the same time
wait upon the Lord.

Spelling CHILDREN.

A mistaken fondness for her children
is often at the root of a mothers failure
to teach them how to work. She wishes
to spare them the drudgery which has
fallen to her own lot, and she has vague
notion that if she does not teach them
how to perform it, they will, in some mys-
FERROUS way escape it; or she fancies that
they will love her better for her leniency;
or she glories in the martyrdom of her
self abnegation;" or she wishes to aave
their hands from the marks Of labor,
and may even surmise that a certain
aristocratic delicacy may be impaired to
their features by keeping away from the
heats of the kitchen. Whatever her
theory may be on the subject, when a
woman is seen to make a household
drudge of herself while she has children,
be they boys or girls. who are old enough
to learn to help her. she subjects herself
to proper criticism. She is kind neither
to them nor to herself, and she is dis
tinctly to blame if stepmother has to
take care of them in the end.
In the first place, the training of a
child to do some drudgery every day as
part of the regular work for which he

THE UNIVERsALIsT MISSION
BY ERMINA C. STRAY.

Rev. Howard McQueary's sermon in
The UNIvERsALIsT of June %. needs no
comment and no explanation; yet
would like to emphasize the thought he
has 80 plainly set forth, as to how the
orthodox body regard the little fiock."
who have been so long and so valiantly
standing for Christian principle and
Gods eternal truth.
He very truly portrays the fact that
only those who have been in some way
associated with the great orthodox
bodies. can understand the feeling that
they cherish toward the Universalist
church; and this feeling is the direct off
spring Of prejudice and ignorance.
If the Universalist church stood only
for universal salvation, We might truly
say that we had accomplished our mis-
sion among the churches; we had set
them lesson that they had learned and
profited by; for the latter day clergy of
orthodox churches rarely dwell upon
everlasting punishment. The latter day
clergy are educated up to higher and
nobler standard of Christianity, and
though they may not like to own that
they owe it to the great principle of Uni
versalism, yet the fact remains.
The Universalist Church has not &C.
complished it's mission so long as an or
thodox minister, stands up before the
people, and tells them that God wants
them to be saved. but they are continu-
ally thwarting him in his desires. and
Satan is constantly overturning his plans
and hindering their accomplishment.
Average intelligence demands a more
infinite God than this, and the God of
the Universalist can neither be thwarted
nor hindered.
In fact the Universalist Church has

is responsible is a valuable means of
discipline to him. Whatever knowledge
he has to acquire in learning it is no
despicable addition to his information,
and il he is doing his work in order to
spare his mothers strength, the con-
seriousness of that alone is calculated to
awaken the noblest emotions within
him; while the fact that he does not
know how to work will never save him
from poverty. 1t is much more likely
to bring poverty upon him.
In the second place, mother has no
right to Systematically spoil her children
in the hope of winning more love on &C.
count of her indulgence. 1t is some
times necessary to sacrifice ourselves for
others. and no soul which has spark of
noble fire will hesitate in such an emer-
gency; but it is doubtful whether it is
ever right to do this in order to make
ourselves beloved. Is it not a higher
principle to do what is right and noble
and to let the consequences take care of
themselves? Especially should it be
the first aim of every mother to SO train
her children that they shall be unselfish
and helpful to others. and that their
best powers shall be most highly devel-
oped. The dread that their children
may not love them is at the bottom of
much of the lax discipline and foolish
fondness of mothers She would be a
monster who woul / not desire her chill
dren's love; but unworthy and time
serving expedients will not gain the love
best worth having.-Kate Epson Clarke.

THE former teacher of the present
Czarina says that she was brought up
almost entirely as an English girl. de-
spite her German birth. The family
spoke English exclusively. their plays
were English and the governess of the
Princess was English. Her German is
consequently spoken with foreign &C.
cent. The teacher thinks the Princess
will make an excellent wife for the Gear
and one who will never bother herself
about politics. She has no interest, she
says, in politics and was not educated to
have any interest in it. She was brought
up, in fact, as the daughter of family
of the middle classes. Until she was
sixteen years old she devoted much time
to playing tennis and croquet and to
riding, rowing. and skating. All her
clothes were purchased in Darmstadt
until after her confirmation. Not un-
til then was she allowed to go to the
theater or balls. make formal visits. or
sit at the table when Queen Victoria
visited Darmstadt. Before her confirm
alton she only received from twelve to
twenty-five cents week spending money
and for some time after it not more than
80 cents. She speaks English and
French perfectly. is good musician, and
can paint, cook and sew. She is said to
be an extraordinary, good cake baker.
Her teacher declares that she is almost
too modest, and will do anything rather
than hurt the feelings of fellow mortal.
