RELIGIOUS THOUGHT,
GATHERED FROM THE RELIC
IOUS AND SECULAR PRESS.
Words of Wisdom and Thoughts
Worth Pondering on Religious
and Moral Subjects.

Horace Bushnell: GO to God himself
and ask for the calling of God, for as
certainly as he has a plan or calling for
you he will somehow guide you into it.
And this is the proper office and work of
his spirit. By this private teaching he
can show us, and will, into the very plan
that is set for us. And this is the signifi-
canoe of what is prescribed as our duty,
namely living and walking in the spirit
for the spirit of God is kind of unver-
sal presence, or inspiration in the worlds
bosom; an unfailing inner light, which.
If we accept and live in we are guided
thereby into a consenting choice, so that
what God wills for us we also will for
ourselves, settling into it as the needle
to the pole. By this hidden union with
God, or intercourse with him, we get a
wisdom or insight deeper than we know
ourselveS-a sympathy, a oneness with
the divine will and love. We go into the
very plan of God for us, and are led
along in it by him, conserving, co-operat-
ing. answering to him we know not how,
and working out with incest eXactness
that good end for which his unseen coun-
sci girded us and sent us into the world.
In this manner, not neglecting other
methods but gathering in all their sep
arate lights to be interpreted in the
higher light of the spirit, we can never
be greatly at a loss to find our way into
Gods counsel and plan. The duties of
the present moment we shall meet as We
rise. and these will open n gate into the
next. and we shall thus pass on. trust
ing and secure. almost never in doubt as
to what God calls us to do.

If all the people in Salt Lake were
like Chief Paul in disposition and
character, like Othello-his occupation
would be gone.
There would be no necessity for
policemen if all were as willing
to mind their own business as this
man. He will make a peaceful neigh
Dor and a good citizen.
The size of his brain is well proper
toned to the weight of his body, but his
mentality is of that order that Will be
manifested more in the practical and
essential affairs of life, than in the
metaphysical.
Chief Paul cannot be written down
as a great man. The light he sheds
forth in this world will be more typical
of a fixed star than of a comet-re-
markable for its steadiness rather than
brilliancy.
He is relia Die, honest, persevering,
thoughtful and extremely firm. The
character is strikingly harmonious. He
is the same yesterday, today and to-
morrow. The writer never saw Mr..
Paul until this examination was made,
but there is no doubt those who have
known him for years viii testify that
MS habits and manners are fixed.
What would offend him a year or
ten years ago, viii displease him today.

q used often to read the newspaper
aloud to my wife, said Bert Robinson,
and once l was fairly taken in by a
patent medicine advertisement. The
seductive paragraph began with a
modest account of the sea-serpent,- but
ended by setting forth the virtues Of
DR.. Pierces Golden Medical Discov-
cry, which, it was alleged. was d cure
for all Bronchial, Throat and Lung
troubles, and would even cure con-
sumption, if to ken in time. The way
I was taken in was this: l had lung
disease, and l bought a bottle of the
remedy; l was a stranger to it, and
it took to me-and cured me" Rob
inson's experience is identical with that
of thousands of others. So true is this,
that after Witnessing, for many years,
the marvellous cures of Bronchial,
Throat and Lung affections wrought by
this wonderful remedy, its manufac-
turars feel warranted in saying that

cases of consumption. if taken in the

For the tones that we love, for the light
of the eye
That warns with welcome and glooms
with goodbye,
We praise thee, gracious God
That the desolate poor may find shelter
and bread.
That the sick may be comforted, nour-
ished and fed,
That the sorrow may cease of the sigh

That the spirit bowed down may be lifted
We praise thee, gracious God.
That brother the hand of his brother

From ocean to ocean in friendliest grasp
That for north and for south and for

An Impromtu Race.

Near Willow creek. Idaho. Newell
Brown. a young denizen of the district
had what he terms one of the most ex-
citing races of his life. As he sped along
on his bicycle over the rough highway
he suddenly encountered a deer standing
at the side of the road. At sight of him,
the animal started off as though terror
stricken, and soon proved to be an apt
Dacemaker. It bounded along in the
ditch at the side while the spokes of
young Browns wheel flashed along sim
ultareOusly. Mile after mile was trav-
ersed like lightning, when the deer, per-
ceiving d creek which crossed the road,
made for it, painting and weary, and
sought q place of protection beneath the
bridge A few feet remained for Brown
10 gain, but the deponent saith not
whether he elucidated the mystery of the
deer's disappearance, or whether he him
self vanished over the horizon with
bowed head and revolving pedals. At all
events, it was a genuine race between the
deer and the bicycle, and though the
latter proved its speed the former evil

Hanntedl

The human tenement is often haunted
to the grievous discomfort of its pos
sessor-by those malignant spirits, con-
stipatiOn and biliousness. But the
abominable pair may be speedily driven
out with the potent help of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. This genial altera-
tive, while it relieves the bowels and
regulates the liver, never, as a drastic
purgative does, produces violent eff
fects and weakens the intestines. On
the contrary, the action of the Bitters
is precisely analogous to an effort of
nature seeking to resume her proper
functions. This furnishes pretty con-
elusive evidence that it is better to
use persuasive means, so to speak, than
to endeavor to coerce nature to a re-
turn to duty. Violent remedies produce
only a temporary effect, followed by
a hurtful reaction. For Indigestion, ma
larial and kidney complaints, rheuma
tism and nervousness, the Bitters takes
highest rank among remedies of the
philosophic school

Private Morals in the Public Service.

The Christian Instructor: The way to
purify the public service is to improve
the private morals of men. The time and
place to begin is in childhood. Let the
home and the school be kept pure; ana
from these pure fountains will come forth
pure streams. They may become detiled
and unwholesome in spite of their origin,
but they are not likely so to do. Water
will become pure unless polluted by that
with which it comes in contact. As a rule,
when a child is trained up in the way he
should go, he will not depart from ii
when he comes TO maturity. But at the

great care should be taken to protect him
from communicating influences. Even

better not expose themselves to small

Fred Woolf, found guilty of burglary
on Wednesday, was sentenced by Judge
Norrell to three years Imprisonment in
the penitentiary. Woolfs crime was
in entering the house of Thomas F.
Tolhurst on West North Temple street
in the night time, and stealing there
from 500 in money and a pair of
trousers. When he was being taken
back to Jail after being sentenced yes
terday he became very excited and
acted more like a crazy man than
person in his right senses. He stopped
in the street protesting his innocence
and uttered maledictions upon the
judge, jury, police and everybody who
had a hand in cOnvicting him. He re-
fused TO proceed any further and Dep
uty Sheriff Gulbransen had hard
time to get him safely behind the bars.
