LIES STRUGGLE. 1t is the struggle
with lower nature, the fight between the
spirit life and the beast life that makes
man sublime. Evolutionists tell us that
it is the struggle for existence that has
made everything that is noble and beauti-
tul in the world. 1t is the struggle for
moral existence that proves man akin to
God, who lives, rather than to the beasts
that perish. The peace that comes through
giving up that struggle is the peace Of
moral death. Rev. w. P. Merrill. Pres
byterian, Chicago.

THE MYSTERY OF LOVE. The word of

God is love. Sometimes we think that we

before the creation, extending again down

ETHICS ABOVE CREED. What Christ
taught concerning character tells us of to-
day that only Christian ethics gives a
firm foundation and is superior to the
ology, which is only theory, whereas re-
ligion is life. The world selects men for
what they are. If we select a Receiver
for bank or guardian for an estate we
would not select a man because he was a
Unitarian, or Calvinist, or Trinitarian,
or an Armenian; we would select him be-
cause he was honest and true man before
men. Rev. 7. G. Dickinson, Methodist,

OUR NATIONAL PERIL. The great peril
threatening the country to-day is the in
difference to political duty on the part of
many good citizens The ballot box should
be guarded against the immoral vote and
the disloyal vote. America was founded as
an asylum for the oppressed, and she must
ever be refuge for all people. But there
should not be a welcome accorded to any
one who does not come to our land to be
an American. The preacher of revolu-
ton, the apostle of dynamite and the fol
lowers of the red flag should not be allow
ed entrance to our ports. Rev. J. +. Car
son, Presbyterian, Brooklyn.
Hope AND FAITH. Where there is no
hope there is no endeavor. No man would
nationally bestir himself in pursuit of
design of which he despaired. Unless we
feel that there is a future before us we do
not live earnestly and completely in the
present The man who labors with no
great end in view is ghost and relic of
man. The faith we have in ourselves to
which we hope to be is already a power in
us that determines what we shall be.
Mans aspirations are tokens of his great
ness. Our hope is an earnest and prophecy
of our future. 1t is a check on the bank

A NEW INTOxlCANT.
Latest Drunkenness Results from Inhal

The very latest sort Of drunkenness is
that which, it has been discovered,
comes from the constant inhalation Of
smelling salts.
So great a hold has the smelling
salts habit gained upon the modern
woman that when she is deprived Of
them she experiences ali the cravings
that afliict the person who dearly loves
liquor and finds himself deprived OF it.
Some of the salts are of excessive
strength and produce sort of stupor
most gratifying to the victim. More

drinking when really her inebriety has
resulted from too liberal use of the
smelling bottle.

BICYCLE "BINS" THE LATEST.
A New Scheme to Caro- for Numerous
Wheels in Great Cities.

The latest development in cycling
circles is the formation of company
which will establish bicycle bins" all
over the metropolitan district. With
in a week so of these establishments
will be in operation, and when the reg
ular season opens next spring that
number will probably have been in
creased ten to fifty fold.
The organization is known as the Cy-
clists' Protective league. 1t has been
Incorporated under the laws of New
Jersey, with capital stock of 100000,
with par value of $40 share.
The plan in contemplation is to estab'
lish from 500 to 5000 bicycle bins" in
and around New York city. At each Of
these bins members will be afforded
valuable privileges, such as storage for
wheels, arrangements for repairs, tot
let-rooms, etc, The charge to members
will be So month, or $40 year. This
will include an insurance policy cover
ing bicycle accidents, allowing $1,000
In case of death and SIS week indemnity
for injuries sustained while cycling.
These insurance policies will be issued
by an insurance company already in
business, and in issuing them the Pro.
tective league will act merely as an
agent.
"There is great need of for some sucl,
enterprise" said one of the officers, "and
we think we have good thing not only
for ourselves, but for the public at
large. We shall offer the same advan-
tages to transients that we do to regti.
lar members, only the rate will be lit
tie higher. That is, we shall charge
ten cents day for storage at any OF
the bins. With so many cyclists living
in flats, bins in residence localities
should be profitable. Nearly everyone
would pay So month for storage rather
rather than carry wheel up and down
stairs. Men who ride their wheels to
business can store them in bin conven
lent to their offices or shops during tie
daytime. Thus storing them at eacl
end of trip would cost less thai
two fares each day."
Should the plan prove profitable II
New York the business will be extended
to other large cities. Besides the ac
commodations outlined above, thu
league will sell and rent bicycles, fur
nish repairs, clean machines and do ,
general bicycle business, Some of tn,
bins will be connected with refresh
ment stands and restaurants, and 9th
ers will be run independently. Coupon
books will be issued to members Of tn,
league which will be good at any bin
Fifty of these bins will be in operation
during the present week, and other
will be established as rapidly as posi-
ble.-N. Y. World.

Numbers Do Not Count.

All history teaches that in war for
Independence superiority in numbers
does not count. For instance, the little
republic of Switzerland, surrounded by
Kingdoms and empires in arms, won its
independence upward of GOO years ago,
and is independent to-day, yet it has,
and has always had, only an army of
militia. The little principality of Mon,
tenegro has been fighting the Turks
since the fall of Constantinople, even be-
fore the discovery of America. The
Dutch republic, and Scotland under
Wallace and Bruce, and Prussia under
Frederick III. in the Seven Years War,
and America in the revolution, all suc-
ceeded with greater odds of numbers
against them than were opposed to the
scceding states. And to-day Cuba, with
only 100000 of population, seem to be
successfully fighting Spain with nearly
20,000000. No; in a war for indie.
pendence numbers do not count, and il
has not often happened in the history
of the world that people who have
fought with such desperate valor as
the confederates displayed have failed
to win independence. duncan Rose, in

FARRAGUT AT THE BOSPHORUS.
No Sultan Could Stop Him from Going to
COnstantinople.

The refusal of the sultan to allow the
Bancroft to sail up to Constantinople is
not an unprecedented occurrence, and
it is strange that Minister Terrell did
not remind the Turkish government of
former experience it had with an
American shipe of war.
In October, 1868, Admiral Farragut
visited Constantinople. He was in the
old Franklin, 50-gun ship, now en-
ployed as receiving ship at Norfolk, and
in reply to his application for permis-
sion to enter the Bosphorus with her,
he met with prompt refusal. He was
told that the treaty of Paris expressly
provided that foreign vessels of war
should not enter that sea. Instead of
acquiescing as the Bancroft seems TO
have done III the like case the hero of
Mobile protested and informed the
grand vizier that it was his purpose to
anchor his flagship off the city of Con-
stantinople. The Turks were shocked,
and a council of foreign ambassadors,
representing the nations which had
been parties to the treaty of Paris, was
called to rebnke the impudent Amer
lean.
Neither Farragut nor our minister to
Constantinople, Il. Joy Morris, "scared
worth cent" Farragut declared that
in the Biographies he had studied il
was nowhere stated that the Creator
had bestowed OH Turkey exclusive do
minion over the arm of the sea which
divided Europe from Asia. Z. Joy
Morris reminded the divan that the
NevslSi, a Russian 50-gun frigate, had
been allowed to sail up to the city. To
this last argument Sultan Abdul Azia
replied that the Nevski was command.

all the difference. To this Farragut
reterted that be commanded 700 sailors
who were al princes of the blood in the
United States, end he emphasized his
purpose by lowering his royal masts
and all his upper spars. This done, he
politely informed the port warden that
he proposed to do himself the pleasure
of calling, in his flagship, on the follow.

and the sultan informed Mr.. Joy that sc

Lots of Trouble Saved by n Little Fore.
thought and Method.

thought and Method.
The great point of good management
n the kitchen is to clean things away
as you go on, and to be one day ahead
IN ordering necessaries. For instance,
take the everyday want of tea and
sugar. At starting, order in two pack
cts of each, and as one paclset is cleared,
order in another, so you will always be
prepared for an emergency, and the
servant will not be called away from
her regular work to run to the gro
GERS" The kitchen, managed by some
cooks, is eyerlastingly il. a muddle, be-
cause things, after they have been
used, are left here, there and every
, here, instead of being washed and put
away in their proper places. The mis-
trcss of the house should insist upon
order in the kitchen, and also that her
cook should get ahead with vegetables
at least in preparing them-beforc
they are wanted; that is TO say, with re-
gard to potatoes, try to get them pared
early in the day, and don't leave the
Smelling of peas when in season until
the last moment. A dinner is often
spoiled through vegetables being in
sufficiently cooked. 1t is the fashion in
some houses to put kitchen clock on
at least ten minutes, a plan that Is
worth following when the cook has
tendency to be late. 1t is wonderful
what lot Of trouble will be saved by
Il little forethought and method in tho
kitchen; and how time is economical
If every vessel is in its right place.
Sometimes one sees the sink laden with
dirty pudding basins, milk jugs, knives
and forks and other things besides,
Cooks will leave stale pieces of bread
about, and choppers and boards with
fragments Of meat still clinging to
them. This is all very untidy and very
unnecessary. One great secret of sue
cess in cooking is to have everything
clean and fresh; another is: Never
put off till the last anything that can
be done beforehand" thirdly, keep
wary eye upon the clock.--Madame.
