1t is said some of the big corporations in
Pennsylvania have been so hurt by the
failure to overthrow Quay that they have
discharged a number of their employees
who voted for Quay delegates to the State
convention, and it will need only little
more of that kind of work to put an end to
corporation influence in the politics of this
country

RANDOM NOTES.
By JOHN MCNAUGHT.

"Man does not yield himself to death,
nor unto the angels utterly, save through
the weakness of his feeble will" These
words are used by Poe as the motto and
foundation of one of the most impressive
of his romances. There may be some dis
sent to the truth thus expressed in its
highest and most poetic form, but in
lower degree and with less exalted phrase
it has been known in all lands and in all
ages, and everywhere admitted as part of
the common wisdom of the world. Among
Notwithstanding people it has become so
familiar that it has long since passed into
proverb: "Where there is will there is
way" Such being the case, it is a more
than passing wonder in these days, when
education strives at everything and chill
dren are expected to acquire a knowledge
of all the fads and half the sciences of the
age before they leave school, that no ear
nest attempt has been made in any system
of school work to train the will and de-
velop in the young that power which alone
will enable them to overcome the force of
circumstance and make their lives some
thing more than a feckless existence.
The training of the will would at first
thought seem to be difficult and almost
impossible task, inasmuch as no one can
exercise his will without first willing to
exercise it. He must have the will before
he can start to will. To create will with
out having will to create it seems as
hopeless as an attempt of man to lift
himself over fence by the bootstraps
when he has no bootstraps. This seeming
difficulty, however, is only metaphysical
paradox. While the will certainly directs
everything it is itself affected by all things,
and there is way to get at it and compel
it to go TO work. A comprehensive system
of will training is therefore among the
possibilities of education. It might not be
within the reach of training to graduate
such resolute wills as those of PaIlisy, the
potter, and Peter the Great in every class,
but good deal might be done to make a
race of men more resolute, more efficient
and more masterful than any which has
yet been seen. Of what avail is it that we
teach our youth so much If we do not
teach them also to will the thing they
wishP Of what avail is it to say to a man,
"Be sure you are right and then go ahead :"
if his will is too weak to decide which is
right? 1t would be better to train mp in
him will strong enough to go ahead and
make it right.

KEEP THE CHURCH HOLY.

God never intended the church TO vie
with the world as an Observation-Disclosures
either in the way of raising money for its
needs or for attracting crowds upon its SER
vices. In His day there were those who
made His temple the seat of merchandise
and when Jesus came to it as its Lord and
Purifier He rose in his Indignation and PIX.
PEELED the desecrators with scouge of cords.
Were He personally to visit some of our
churches to day He might find occasions
to apply the lash to those who desecrate
His sanctuary by kissing plays, and raiiles,
and theatricals, and other questionable
practices. In their eagerness to increase
the church funds there is disposition
among too many persons to adopt and
countenance the principle that the end
ustifies the means, and so they sanction
almost any method that will attract the
multi lde and unloose the purse-strines
But certainly this subordination to the
worldly taste and appetite in order to fill
depleted treasury, or this rage for church
entertainments, has gone too far, and it is
/ ne reformation was being introduced
The craze in this direction is bringing the
Church into disrepute, and leading to ex
cesses most reprehensible Christ would
rather have the plain dwelling and pur
heart and life than the rich and costly
building paid for at the sacrifice of woman
ly modesty and through pandering to
worldly customs and qualifications. He
never asks for an editice which the people
cannot pay for by voluntary contributions
Let His ordinance be sustained as well as
HIS churches be built on Christian princi,
pies, and in way that neither our Lord
nor the world can take exception to.
