EVIDENTLY IN THOSE DAYS

the casuist had not thought far enough to try to prove that the park and the pond were very holy places-es specially on Sunday. The prophets but echoed the voices of the law. Ezekiel gives the
 injunction land hallow my Sabbaths, and they shall be a sign between me and you that ye may know that I am the Lord your God" To this prophet the holy time was evidently for the purpose of revealing God to man. Jeremiah's mandate from God was Thus saith the Lord take heed to yourselves and bear no burden on the Sabbath day nor bring it
 in by the gates of Jerusalem, neither carry forth burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day, neither do ye any work but hallow ye the Sabbath day" For myself l have always enjoyed Isaiah's way of looking at the use of Gods time. ''If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, (that i8 if you do not tread Gods time under foot in con- tempt) from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath de- light the Holy of the Lord honorable, and shalt honor him not doing thine own ways nor finding thine own pleasure nor speaking thine own words. Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord, and will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father, for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.'' Therein the minister who wants to find arguments for 8 better observance of the old fashioned Sabbath will find ample arguments and blessed promises. But time urges me to pass on to the New Testament and to the example and teach ing of Christ. The question rises at nncR

Lovers of music now have an oppor- tunity to supply themselves with late and and popular pieces for less than whole sale prices. A special clearance sale of music that is sold everywhere for 25c to 50 is now being had at Northrop's, 6 Fairfield avenue, Bridgeport, for 10 cents a copy. Among them are the popular compositions of c. H. R. Miller who has been playing at Howland's. If you wish to buy for this low price do not delay. Mr Northr0p enjoys the reputation of selling music for less money than any other store in the state and if you will visit his store you will find that it is deserved. He carries a full line of banjo, violin, mandolin, and guitar strings, and musical instruments of all kinds, which he sells for popular prices. You will also find an elegant assortment of station ary. Automatic mucilage bottles, abso- Iutely non evaporating, saftey ink bottles, absolutely non spillable, costing no more than the ordinary kind, viz. 10 cents upwards.
