Music ought to rush from the audi
ence like the water from O rock-clear,
bright, sparkling. If all the other part
of the church service is dull, do not
have the music dull. With so many
thrilling things to sing about, away
with all drawing and stupidity. There
is nothing makes me SO nervous as to
sit in a pulpit and look off on an audi
ence with their eyes three-fourths closed
and their lips almost shut, mumbling
the praises of God. During my recent
absence / preached to a large audience,
and all the music they made together
did not equal n skylark. People do
not sleep at a coronation. Do not let us
sleep when we come to a Saviour's
browning. In order to a proper discharge
of this duty let us stand up, save as age
or weakness or fatigue excuses us. Seat
ed in an easy pew we cannot do this
duty half SO well as when, upright, we
throw our whole body into it. Let our
song be like an reclamation of victory.
You have a right to sing. Do not sur
render your prerogative.
We want to rouse all our families
upon this subject. We want each family
of our congregation to be a singing
school. Childish petulance, obduracy
and intractability would be soothed if
we had more singing in the household,
and then our little one would be pre-
pared for the great congregation on Sab
bath day, their voices uniting with our
voices in the praises of the Lord. After
a shower there are scores of streams
that come down the mountain side with
voices ripping and silvery, pouring in
to one river and then rolling in united
strength to the sea- So / would have all
the families in our church send forth
the voice of prayer and praise, pouring
1t into the great tide of public worship
that rolls on and on to empty into the
great, wide heart of God. Never can
we have our church sing as it ought I'M
til our families sing as they ought.
There will be a great revolution on
this subject in all u churches. God
will come down by his spirit and rouse
up the old hymns and tunes that have
not been nor than half awake since the
time of our grandfathers. The silent
pews in the church will break forth in
to music, and when the conductor takes
his place on the Sabbath day there will
be a great host Of voices rushing into the
harmony. Ny Christian friends, if we
have NO taste for this service on earth
what will we do in heaven, where they
all sing and sing forever? I would that
our singing today might be like the Sat-
urday night rehearsal for the Sabbath
morning in the skies, and we might be-
gin now, by the strength and by the
help of God, to discharge a duty which
none of us has fully performed. And
now what more appropriate thing can 1
do than to give out the doxology of the
heavens, Unto him who hath loved us
and washed us from our sins in his own
blood, to him be glory ~foreverl''

Effect of the Cars visit on Franc

l met the other day ON the Boulevard
DIES Italiens two friends, one of whom
is a monarchist, the other a republican.
Both were in high spirits. "Mon cher, -
exclaimed the first, monarchy is an
accomplished fact. Who will now dare
to tell us that the country wants a re-
public? Consider the enthusiasm excited
by the emperor of Russia's visit. At
sight of Nicholas II the monarchical
sentiment was reawakened in the breast
of the Frenchmen. / repeat, monarchy
is an accomplished fact" Thereupon
the second, holding me by the button
of my coat: mon cher, the republic
has, from now on, nothing more to fear.
1t is i~ndestructible. The homage of the
most powerful sovereign in Europe has
demonstrated its strength. Who will
dare to tell us that the republic has no
prestige?"
My friends were right, both of them,
and also wrong. The czar's visit has
done no good to the monarchical cause,
but it is not certain, either, that it will
do good to the republic. A republican
regime is a regime of labor, not of fes-
tivities; of reason and forethought, not
of enthusiasm and vivid impressions. It
must look to itself for stability, and in
this stability it must find its strength.
The capital of a republic cannot be-
come the favorite resort of kings and
emperors without an influence being ex-
erted on public and habits by
the fact. A people which has main
tanned the republican form of govern
ment perseveringly through innumer-
able dangers and difficulties does no
certainly revert to the principle of he
redity, but it is always confronted by
this temptation-to abdicate the liber-
ties of which it is every citizens duty
to avail himself into the hands OF
chiefs. Pierre de Coubertin in Century.

A more ridiculous method of curing a
man who is suffering from nervous exhaus-
ton and is threatened with nervous pros
tration could not be we'll conceived. A mar
who has overworked does not need more
work, but less work and more rest. The
man who has lost his appetite needs some
thing to restore it. The man whose nerves
are shattered needs something to tone and
strengthen them. Get the nerves right and
sound, and refreshing sleep will follow. A
man who sleeps well and eats we'll, and
digests and assimilates his food will not
remain i'll.
In cases of this kind DR., Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery goes to bed rock to
first causes. 1t creates a hearty appetite
it makes the digestion and assimilation
| perfect; it invigorates the liver; it purihes
the blood and fills it with the life-giving
elements of the food. 1t builds VI new
| flesh, new muscle and new nerve fhres. It
is an unfailing cure for nervous exhaustion
and nervous prostration, and the best of
all medicines for overworked men and wo-
men. An honest druggist won't urge an
inferior substitute upon you, thereby in
| sulting your intelligence.

you ask for-not what he prefers for selfish
profits sake to sell.

A Place For George.

One day we were at luncheon, al
though it was 6:15 p. m. when a lady
was announced and ushered in at once.
She was apparently al old friend of the
family, and she opened fire without los
ing a moment. II am SO glad, M. Ralli,
that you are prime minister Of Greece,
and my George, won't he be delighted
too! You remember him, don't you? He
is at the front, you know, working won
ders. Now, | wan you to do him a lit
tie service. You can do it with a stroke
OF the pen, you know, and we shall all
be SO grateful"
Here the minister looked at the lady
from above the rim of his spectacles.
and, with a humorous twinkle in his
eyes, asked her what the service was.
She c%opiously explained it. "And do
you know what the law says on the sub
ject?" he inquired when she paused to
draw breath "Oh, of course l do, but
then you know that the law has often
been disregarded, and besides, you''-
81 am very sorry to have to refuse
you anything" exclaimed the minister,
laughingly interrupting, "but you might
just as well ask for the moon. 1t is alb
~solutely impossible. If the law were
the embodiment of injustice, it must be
administered till it is changed by par
lament" but won't you listen to
reason and argument?" mo, madam,
it is useless. | am very sorry, but the
law must take its course" The lady
ROSE in dudgeon and left in haste, and
her Georges anticipated delight lost
its raison d'etre. She is not likely to
interrupt his luncheon again in the
hope OF inducing him to suspend the
law for her son.-Contemporary Re-
view.

CHARLIE MARRY

His head and body were a mass
of sores, and his nose was swollen to
several times its natural size; to add to
his misery he had catarrh, which made
him almost deaf, and his eyesight also
became affected. No treatment was
spared that we thought would relieve
him, but he grew worse until his condi-
ton was indeed pitiable. A dozen blood
remedies were given him by the whole
sale, but they did not the slightest good.
l had almost despaired of his ever being
cured, when by the advice of a friend we
gave him SIS. (Swift's Specifc), and
at first the Inflammation seemed to in
crease, but as this is the way the remedy
gets rid of the poison, by forcing it out
of the system, we were encouraged and
continued the medicine. A decided i'm
provement was the result, and after he
had taken a dozen bottles, no one who
knew of his former dreadful condition
would have recognized him. All the
cores on his body have healed, his skin
is perfectly clear and smooth, and he
has been restored to perfect health"
Mr.. A. 7. Morgan, one of the promi-
ent druggists of Macon. and a member
of the board of aldermen of that city,
says: ~ am familiar with the terrible
condition of little Charlie Mabry, and

blood diseases, such as S~crofula, Rheu-

To Change a Current For climates Sake.

A Tokyo journ Il is responsible for the
following: "Vladivostok, being the
terminus Ct tile Siberian railway, is a
most important port in Russia. Not
withstanding this fact over four
months during the cold season the port
is blocked with ice and spring traffic is
entirely impossible, and therefore the
railway loses much of its advantages.
The Russian authorities have endeavor-
ed for many years to conquer nature,
and seine years ago ice breaking ships
were introduced to break open the ice,
but it has been found that the operation
is useless.
"a certain engineer has hit upon the
rather wonderful idea OF retaining the
narrowest part of the Tartar strait, be-
tween Saghalien and the Russian main
land. He is of opinion, if this is done,
the cold current that enters the Japa-
nese sea from the arctic via Bering
strait will be checked and the passage
of the warmer tide, coming from the
south through the Suyshima strait,
will make the water on the coasts of
Japan as we'll as at Vladivostok warm
er, and the latter will be warmer all
the year around. This scheme was pre-
sented to the Russian government foi
approval, and it is now engaged in its
Investigations. There is a probability
of this piece Of smart engineering being
entered upon after tie completion Of
the Siberian railway. Portland Ore
