erage is far higher than the average Of
those. They are almost always interest
ing. They are never perfunctory. They
are completely iii earnest, laudably and
benevolently ambitious. They are elo-
quent in their sincerity, exalted in their
conscientiousness. They invariably
speak from the heart to the heart. They
are orators of the spirit. For dogma
they substitute sympathy and for doc
trine the affections They are born
members of the profession. They teach
the best, the most modern, form of the
ology by being NEUROLOGICAL.
The churches of the present steadily
bewail the deplorable absence of men
from their Sunday service. Would not
this be largely remedied by the copious
introduction of women as pastors? Many
men attend church now mainly because
their sisters, wives, sweethearts, attend
and only at their urgent solicitation. If
there were 90, 3d. 100 or even more
women i'll the pulpit where there is one
woman at present, would not the pews
be far better filled with men than they
are today? Where woman is the chief
attraction men will be attracted. She
is the universal magnet for them. They
are rejoiced to see her, to watch her, to
hear her speak. Abstract truths would
be made delightfully."- human falling
from her tongue. The driest precepts
would be clothed with charm. Church
going would cease to be simply stern
duty, would become source of pure
pleasure and genuine inspiration.
Ecclesiasticism, if it is to be revived,
must be associated with sentiment, with
romance, metaphysical love with con-
crete love. The principle of right must
be incarnated and rendered willingly
sensible. The day of intangible theology
has passed The era of Ineligible, emo
tional religion has como to regenerate
the world, to elevate the mind, to fra
ternize the heart. The full sharing of
the pulpit with women will greatly aid
in this contamination. Common justice
demands this. Enlightened policy will
insure it. Clerical egotism and tyranny
must give way. 1t is time the churches
thought not less of saving sinners, but
more of saving themselves. How can
they continue to reject woman as a
minister when she is the very foundation
and superstructure of the church? The
continuance is amazing effrontery, sub
lime impertinence. Would the church
still be existent had it not been for her?

Charles X, king of France. and which
cost 800, 900. 1t is made from the fur
of a certain species of Persian Cat, so
fine and elastic that single hair Of the
fur is scarcely perceptible to the naked

and yet is so fine and elastic that it is
possible to compress it into large cot

Dentists are always warning their
customers that frequent brushing of the
teeth is absolutely necessary to guard
them from decay, that the particles of
food which lodge between the teeth
must be removed after each meal, and
that the mouth must be thoroughly
rinsed, after taking anything acid into
it, under penalty Of the loss of teeth.
And yet another danger confronts one.
A pretty young girl lately was obliged
to visit her dentist who, after investi-
eating the condition Of her mouth, told
her that she was troubled with shrink
age of the gums and loosening Of the
teeth, and that i'll ten years time she
would find that they would all drop
out. He added that this was the result
of too much and too hard brushing of
the teeth.
This peculiar mouth affection, what
ever may cause it, is not so uncommon
but that the writer has known of some
half dozen friends who have been
obliged to wear false teeth from no 9th

In the average annual number of

nearly 5000, while Spain drags on a

Scotland provides less than her share,
according to the number of her popula-
ton, showing that time has ameliorated
the character of her people since the

LucOmoes, of Arno, and of the Bianchi

Professor Grafalo has recently been
lecturing on the subject in Rome and
attributes much of the tendency to
homicide to the existence of the ven
delta, which survives in full force in
Italy after its practical extinction III

some weight, no doubt, but an amplel
one is to be found in the fact that the
people there are bred i'll savage disre-

upon with some liberation as belonging
to the locality and the social habits OF
