THE TIME HAS COME.

Under this caption the indianapolis
News takes the position that the time
has come when the Christian nations
should say that no power shall be al
lowed to put people to death simply
because they are Christians. And 1t
is right. The massacre of 500 persons
at Iiarport, Armenia. few days since
was one of the most horrible affairs yet
chr6 nicled. This was the oldest and
most successful Of the mission stations
under the care of the American board
in Eastern Turkey, and It's people were
happy and prosperous, but to-day not a
building stands to mark the place
No doubt the burning and looting of
this place will greatly intensity
American interests in the Turkish
question, as It should, and that too in
n manner to leave no room for misun-
Outstanding.
Every message which comes from
Armenia brings news OF new outragcs
and the cry for help goes on, and yet
no help is at hand. AS the Charleston
News and Courier says: Christian
people converted by our missionaries
are being killed by the scores and
hundreds by the barbarians and Turks
II is shame to NIL Christcndom."

ENDE. vORIHG TO ACETATE; THE
TAisIFF QUESTION.

1t is noticed that some few c:;trem-
lists In the Republican purity are ell
deavoring to agitate the tariff ques-
ton with view of having the McIiIm
ley duties restored by Congress, but
the New Orleans States very properly
says that 1t is quite clear that the
more thoughtful of Republican lead
ers desire the tariff question to rest
because they are aware of the fact
that If it is brought to the attention
OF Congress and there discussed the re
suit Will be general disturbance of the
business of the country. The Boston
Herald also says:
we apprchend, therefore, no turin
legislation in this Congress. The Dem
ocrats do not want 1t; the more dis
Greet Republicans feel that 1t would be
premature. IL it were practicable
The fact is that While there Will no
doubt be some who from time TO time
Will want to raise the question Of re-
storing the Mckinley tariff. yet 1t is
quite plain that the Mckinley tariff
as the people have known 1t will never
again be fastened upon this country.

In purple and crimson glory

In purple and crimson glory
The Easter sunlight poured
A flood through the chancel windows
In the temple of our Lord.
Its waves passed over the altar
To battle the cross with their glow
And stain the lilies with crimson,
Like sunset over the snow.
Till every fragrant chalice
Seemed filled to the brim with wine
Distilling there into vapor
And rising in clouds divine.
Farther and farther the incense
Its delicate perfume spread,
Like loving thoughts sent earthward
By souls of our happy dead
With prayers from our hearts uprising,
Which mingled and seemed to reach
Through the space 'tWiXt earth and
heaven,
So blending them each with each,
That my soul could feel the presence,
The smile and the tender eyes
Of one who gathers the lilies
In gardens of paradise.

THE HIGHER STOICISM.

That nothing matters; joy and pain
and woe
Are nothing but events in this great
whole;
And, since they never lie in mans
control,
They count for nothing and are
treated So
And as a star undimmed by cloud
below
Or sun above still shines beyond the
goal
Of sight, so, by light within, my
soul
Shall shine, nor grief nor sorrow ever
know.
And yet. dear heart, one day l
wounded you
By careless word although l loved
you 50;
l saw the dear eyes sadden and
knew
The heart-acha that your words would
never show.
All, can I say this does not matter,
too?
Thank God, I shall repeat it my life
through!

HER SOCIETY LOVER.

Benjamin Hackett knew how to read
and write after a fashion. How he
came by those accomplishments no
one was quite sure. 1t was a mystery
to himself.
Betsy was his Wifes name and his
wife had been plump, good natured
sailors daughter. When they were
married she felt quite content with
her little front room in a riyerward
street.
They lived in another quarter Of the
city now, and Betsy's daughter called
herself Elizabeth and had no notion
of being less fashionable than her
neighbors, and people said Capt Hack
EFT was immensely rich and would
leave his daughter an heiress.
Moreover, she had grown to be not
quite so well pleased when, following
in her fathers wake on his return
from any voyage, she saw that hand
some sunburned mate of his, Tom
HadaWay.
She had known Tom almost all her
life, and once she had been very fond
of him. She liked him still and knew
that he was manly and handsome and
well educated.
And there had been a time when
she had believed that her fathers wish
might come to pass and Tom Hada-
way become her husband, but with
the elegant house in the fashionable
square had arisen other ideas.
So during one Of her fathers long,
est voyages she permitted Melton Mel.
ton, who had by slow degrees become
her beau ideal of manly perfection, to
slip an engagement ring upon her slen-
der finger and gave him permission to
TASK papa" in the most approved
fashion.
why didn't you ask me frst?" said
the captain. THAT puppy! Lord love
you! What do you women see in a
fellow like that? They amt men &C,

wrong clothes! Him.
He adores me, papa" said Eliza
beth, melting into tears, "and 1 should
die if you were cruel. Do you con,
sent papa?''
And how about Tom Hadaway?''
asked the captain.
tom loves you better than his life
said the captain. 1--WE as much as
given him to understand that III make
no objections. As for this fellow, the
only use you could make of him in
| the time of a storm would be to
throw him overheard to tighten the
ship, and, by the Lord Harry, his
weight wouldn't make much difference.
Think it over, Lizzier'
But Lizzie was firm, and she was

it had only been one word-but no, it
was only for the kid she had sent a
| token of her love-nothing for him.
And all his old hard sense of injuries
came trooping back like restless spirits
to torment him and Cypress his mind.
one Of the men came down from the
end Of the cut and turned to call
out:
Better come down under the grade,
they're going to fire big blast thatIl
make it lively up here
jim came over the grade and paused
to see the little curl of white smoke
that was fitfully spluttering under the
ledge Of rock and earth at the end of
the work. He started to go down
after his cOmrade when he heard an
exclamation of fear and dismay break
from his lips.
There on the bank above the blast
among the soapWeeds and scanty
bushes, looking down on the work be-
low with curious interest was the kid.
Jim made a dash forward with the
rest of the boys, a cry of warning
dying on his lips, and then they saw
some one spring from the rocks and
swiftly grasp the little figure and rush
madly away from the fatal edge. The
white smoke puffed UP for an instant,
and then came the deep-rending sound
Of the rocks. A cloud Of suffocating
dust overspread everything, and the
boys shrank involuntarily back as the
fragments fell viciously about item.
Big Jim sickened for a moment and
some of the men were up on the
bnulders before his senses recovered.
When lie got up the boys were STOPPING
over something that was all but
buried by the debris, but Jim caught
sight of a blackened and torn piece of
red. Bridgers pulled down his hat
aud touched Jim on the arm.
"It's Their greaser that came into
camp this morning. He's done for,

Big Jim knelt down and touched the
tattered red jacket clasped tightly in
his baby's fingers.

RULES FOR STOUT WOMEN.

Firstly. Wear soft, clinging ma
terials; leave heavy stuffs and fluffy
stuffs to the slim.
Secondly. Don't line your skirts;
crinoline is for the willows.
Thirdly. Don't put balloons on your
arms; full dropping sleeves expose you
to less ridicule and are just as fashion
able.
FourthIy. Don't tighten the waist;
it makes you look stouter. Moreover,
it gives you tremendous hips and big
bust, and these this winter are out
Of fashion.
Fifty. Don't wear velvet bodice;
it increases the apparent size.
Sixty. Try satin; it lessons the
size
Seventhly. Wear dark colors.
Eighthly and lastly-for long SER
mons have gone out. Try always for
up and down lines; eschew cross eff
fects.
