EASTER TRIUMPH.
4 Fresh Impetus Given 10 the Upward
Aspirations of Mankind.
WILLIAM RossER coBBE.


The passing of the severe season is
the signal for undisguised triumph i'm
external nature. sky and sun, and
mead and crag, are lighted up with n
new fire. II is the feast of the sun, the
yearly awakening of the myriad sleep
ing beauties-thc running of the sap,
the coloring of the leaf and the flower,
the return of life and strength and myr-
lad activities.
Mans Easter is at one with that of
nature and with the Divine who is risen
The ancient church ranks the resurrec-
tion as the first and primal basis of her
claim. For il He is not risen there is
no shadow of right in Christianity as II
Divine institution. But, on the other
hand. all men are risen with Him. The
world rose very great and strong on
that Easter morning when Love came
back from the tomb with IA message of
hope and T. proof and assurance of the
faith of the chosen few.
Ever since Easter triumphs have
multiplied, rising is the new order. En-
celsior is the schoolboy's motto. Full
grown ambition sees nothing in the
way of his attaining the greatest honor
or the highest station-~eNcept lack of
opportunity and unfnvorable circum-
stances. The primeval downward in
man comes back now only as an atav-
ism that is out of place and out of date.
In the aspiring of an ill-judged pur-
suit of greatness or success, the bad
trait of some long dead ancestor comes
back to pull down, instead of building
up. The general tendency. however. Us
upward. We believe a fresh impetus
was given 10 it on the first Easter when
the women waited for Him tn come
back-the Light of Hope from the
sightless eyes of death. There is no
more darkness or death, but light and
| life.-Collicr's Weekly.

For going on, our life grows gray
In shadow OF the passed away:
The things We had, and have not, seem
The fading vision of a dream,
Dear voices hushed. dear hands ungrasped
Dear household broken, links unclasped
That late were binding kith and kim
such winds of sorrow have swept IN
That wide, waste spaces everywhere
Leave empty silence, bleak and bare
Not now with starry lilies dight
We greet the Casters morning light
Our lilies bloom beyond the tide,
Sweet fields are on that other side,
Here meet we pain and fret and loss
And heavy weight of rouCh-hewn cross.
When Easter breaks, thank God, we say,
For strength still equal to our day.
For hopes that span the road before
And love that climbs to Heavens door.
IT'S much, If but, serene and still,
We can accept the Fathers will.
And comforted, upiift our psalm,
ana feel, through tears, the Easter balm
And now, by every lowly grave,
one tender thought our fond hearts crave,
That He whose outward grave-clothes lay
Folded and fair on Easter day
May come so much our own to be
That aye His blessed company
May light like sunshine all our gloom,
And make our Easter lilies bloom
In hearts that Join with full accord
The anthems to the risen Lord

THE CULINARY ART.

The princess of Soubise invented the
soup nov called after her, while the
princess of Conde gave her name to a
particular mode of serving breast of
mutton. The duchess Of Mailly, vying
with her, invented n special way of
dressing leg of the same animal.
Louise de la Valliere was skilled in the
culinary art.
Nine. de Maintenon became so
alarmed at the delight of Louis NV.
over the breast of mutton n la Conde
Pere Douillet, and the trio evolved the
duck au Douillet; this dish is famous in
history as the means of weaving the
susceptible monarch from Princess de
Conde to the triumphant Maintenon.
Some 200 or 300 years ago Italy led
in cooking and France laughed and
mocked at the Italian devotion to the
in France when masters in the art OF
cooking, such as Bechameil. serving
Louis The Magnificent, and Natel. the
famous steward of Prince de Condo
ruled over the dinner table, and great
ladies thought it no indignity to pre-
pare a flvorite dish.
Moderation in manner of eatihg1NEd
choice of food has not always cEmac
tcrized men of history. Both Napoia1n
|. and Carlyle are said to have ruined
their digestions and tempers by rapid
eating. On the other hand, the care
with which Gladstone partalies of the
yiands set before him has been nc
knowledged over and over again as one
of the greatest factors which has
worked TO prolong his life.

Onium and whisky Habits.

The letter quoted below, written March
%, 1896, by the editor and manager OF the
Sh' field, Ala, Standard, leaves no room
TO doubt that successful treatment for
the cure of the liquor habit exists:
"Dr. B. NJ Woolley, Atlanta, Ga: Your
antidote for the liquor habit will do ~ you
claim for it. After drinking WHISKY for
more than twenty years | find myself en-
tirely relieved Of the aecursed appetite

THE KAvA-KAvA SiJnuB ana PROBABLY was
(Piper heihvaicuml used for centuries
by the natives before its extraordinary
properties became known to civilization
through Christian missionaries. In
this respect it sembles the discovery
of quiuine from the peruvian bark
made known by the Indians to the early
Jesuit missionaries in South America
and by them brought to civilized man.
1t is a wonderful discovery, with rec
ord of Iaoo hospital cures in 80 days. II
acts directly upon the blood and kid
neys, and is true specific, just as qui-
nine Is in malaria. We have the strong
est testimony of IN any ministers of the
gospel, we'll known doctors and business
men cured by Alkavis, when all other
remedies had failed.

the testimony of Rev. W. b Moore. D. D., OF
years OF suffering from Kidney disease and
rheumatism, aud his RAPID cure by Alkavis.
Golden, Illinois, passed nearly one hundred
gravel stones after two weeks use OF Alkavis
Rev. John II. Watson, ofsunset, Texas, minister
of the gospel of thirty years service, was struck
down at his post OF duty by Kidney disease
After lowering between life and death for two
months, and sll his doctors having failed, he
took Alkavis, and was completely restored to
health aud strength, aud is frttllng his duties as
minister of the gospel. Mr.. X; c. Wood prom,
inent attorney OF Lowell, Indiana. was cured of
Rheumatism. Kidney and Bladder disease of ten
years standing, by Alkavis. Mr.Wood describes
himself as being in constant misery, oftcn com.
pelied to rise ten times during the night on
account of weakness of the bladder. He was
treated by all his home physicians without the
least benefit and finally completely cured in a
few weeks by Alkavis. The testimony is un-
doubted and really wonderful. Mrs James
Young, OF Kent, Ohio, writes that she had tried
six doctors in vain. that she was about to give
up In despair, when she found Alkavis and was
promptly cured of kidney disease and restored
to health. Many other ladies also testify to the
wonderful curative powers Of Alkavis in the
various disorders peculiar to womanhood.
So far the Church Kidney Cure Com
rsny, No. ara Fourth. Avenue, New
York, are the only importers of this
new remedy, and they are so anxious to
prove its value that for the sake of intro
duction they will send free treatment
of Alkavis prepaid by mail to every
