Moody ON Sunday Labor.

"rherc are one or two principles
which apply directly to the frequent
difficulties which meet the Christian
young man." writes Dwight l.. Moody
of "a Young Mans Religious Life" In
the January Ladies Home Journal.
I'm Sunday labor there is certain
amount of work that must be done on
Sunday, both for the needs and health
of community. But in necessary
work II should be dispatched as quick
ly ms possible. and not he used as an
excuse for unnecessary work.
when the Lord ordained Il day Of
rest it was for mans best interests,
physically, mentally and spiritually,
and any man who barters the day of
rest to crafty the selfish interests of
another is always the loser. Man needs
for the welfare of his soul. as well as
his body. at least one day in seven to
devote to its special needs. l know,
from personal experience. that no man
can work seven days In the week, not
even in religious work, and do the best
work he is capableof either for God or
man. And have no right TO take from

Turning to China, he said their in

,aosTErrER co. WINS A CASE.
Infringsments on Their Bittors Not Toier-

ated by United states Court.
The United States circuit court for
the southern district of New York,
Judge Townsend presiding, handed
down an opinion December %, 1887,
granting injunction and accounting, In
the suit of The Hostetter Company
against Isaac Sommers and Louis Jo-
seph, for infringement Of Its trade
mark. The jurist states, in bold and
clear language, the rights accruing to
the Hostetter Company, and the liabil-
ity incurred by all who would rob
them, by fraud or misrepresentation,
of the well-earned reputation and
profits of business built up by the
efforts of half century. The julge
says, in part:
1.-The complainant Is entitled to pro-
lection against the appropriation Of Its
trade mark, by any and all unfair and
dishonorable means, and a court OF
equity has power to grant such protec-
tion whenever 1t is satisfied that an
attempt has been made by ingenious
subterfuges, to invade the rights of an
owner of trade mark. In
the sharp contest between the individ-
ual manufacturer, who strives to ac-
quire and retain the fruits of indus
try and honesty, and the field Of keen
rivals. seeking to wrest from him the
prize OF the public goodwill. the in
ventive ingenuity Of the infringer has
conceived great variety OF devices
for evadng the established rules OF
fair dealing. Courts of equity
finding that their ultimate object and
effect were to enable and induce the
retail seller OF fraudulent Imitation
to palm 1t off on an unsuspecting pub
lie for the genuine article. and thus
to contribute to the infringement upon
the rights of the original owner. have
not hesitated to apply the remedy"

The diabolical assassination of Will
liam Terriss, the distinguished British
actor. by a worthless crank with n
homcidal mania. brings up before us
again and in most urgent form the
question of dealing with this class of
pests. There is no law for Furnishing
or even locking up crank, no matter
how dangerous he may notoriously be.
Justice waits until he commits muir
der, and then offers to society the beg
gardly rcparation OF the gallows, The
peril is one which the individual must
meet for himself, Government avenges

his family desolated.

Two policemen in Boston are hard
at work trying to prevent the students
of medical school and those OF a
young ladies' seminary from looking at
each other. The schools are close to-
gether and the students are let out at
the same time every day. If the plan
worked the young persons would be
less or more than human. 1t won't.
There is only one sure way of stopping
the mischief. and that is to abolish the
