Sermon at the Methodist Church.

A Sermon at the Methodist Church.
70 the Editor of THE News:
During the occasion.of the
18th quarterly conference for
the Morganton station, it was
the writer's pleasure to hear a
sermon preached by Rev. G.
c.. Little, Presiding Elder of
the Morganton district, on
sunday night from the follow
ING text: Rev, Doth chapter,
9th verse-''And l saw the
lead, small and great, stand
before God, and the books
we're opened, and another
book was opened, which was
the Book of Life, and the dead
we're judged out of those
things that we're written in
the books, according to their
works.
The preacher had the undi-
yided attention of the large
audience from beginning to
end. While discussing what
he understood to be from the
Bible, the awful and solemn
truths declared to His SER
want John, while banished up
on the Isle Of Patmos, his
theme was the Judgment, and
his description of the scenes
that will be enacted on that
day IN the presence of the as
Sembled universe rivited the
attention of everyone present.
1t is to be regretted that
more such plain, unadultera-
ted, gospel sermons are not
preached to the people in
this fast age, when men are
running to and fro, to palate
the denunCiatlonso of God Him
self upon the wicked, and as
sam Jones says, Many a lit
tie fellow has already scratch
cd hell out of his creed,' so
that eternal punishment for
the wicked is all a myth. We
can but think that Presiding
Elder Little is the right man
in the right place, and his
able gospel preaching will be
heard and appreciated wher-
ever he goes. X. A. Z.

oPERATIC CONCERTS.
Captain Berger's Innovation Meets
With Popular Approval

The moonlight concert at Makee
Island by the Government Band last
evening was exceptionally we'll attend
ed. For an hour before the concert,
and an hour after it, King street and
WAIKIKI road were the course of an
almost continuous procession of people
on bicycles and horseback, and in car
riages and automobiles, going to or re-
turning from the park. The lights of
the vehicles as they passed along made
very pretty picture.
Captain Berger has made hit with
his operate programs. Opening with
long orchestral selection from the
opera chosen for the evening, in an ed
ucational way, a better idea of the style
or the composer is conveyed than by
the usually short concert selections, and
at the same time pleasing introduction
is given to the vocal selections from
the opera At the same time Captain
Bergers selection and arrangement of
the orchestral portions given, has so
far, proven popular A large number
of people hope Captain Berger will con-
tnue his operate selections. BY re-
quest of many, the Bohemian Girl
program of Monday night will in large
part be repeated tonight at the EeXecu-
tive building grounds. The concert be-
gins at 1880. The following is the prog

CHEMISTRY IN MODERN LIFE.

The disinfection of the sick-ro

far toward the creation of modern sur
gerry all depend upon chemical pro-
ducts whose long list increases year by
year. Crude drugs are now replaced
by active principles discovered in the
laboratory morphine, quinine, and the
like-and instead of the bulky, nause-
Gus draughts of olden time, the invalid
is given tasteless capsules of gelatin
or compressed tablets of uniform
strength and more accurately graded
power. A great part of physiology
consists Of the study of chemical pro-
cesses, the transformation of com
pounds within the living organism, and
practically ali this advance is the Gre
alton OF the nineteenth century. Mod

teal applications, began with a chem

THE WEES ONE.


Down at cur house Is wee one,
And nobody ever could see one
More sweet and complete from the
tirs Of his feet
10 the soft fluffy down on the tor of
his crown.
On, the hue of his eyes is the blue of
the skies.
And the guile of his smile like the
laugh of the day.
Merry and winning and gladstone and
gay,
While his cheeks are like clover, with
pink flushing over.
From the break of the dawn to the
set of the sun.
There is nothing you'll see that is
fairer than he,
Cur own little, dear little wee one!
Two fat little fists has the wee one,
And he always can show you a free
one
To tear at your hair and to make
havoc there.
And dimple he'll find you still fur
tner to bind you:
and he's two little teeth lately out
from their sheath
That will bite with delight on your
finger or knuckle.
Or make tiny dents on your watch or
your buckle,
While his feet growing holder will
drum on your shoulder.
But who minds the scars when they're
every one done
By that mischevous mite. that witch
ing young wight,
Our own little, dear little wee one!
All, many friend has the wee one,
And he knows if you happen to be
one;
He'll gurgle and coo and he'll frolic
with you.
Or stretch out his arms with his
prettiest charms,
And fret when you wake him to get
you to take him:
He'll hoax you and coax you and cut
up his capers,
Toss over your treasures and tumble
your papers;
You have to attend him, you have to
befriend him.
But who can help loving that bundle
of fun.
That giver of joy, that bright little
boy,
God bless him. our dear little wet

few steps further and at your feet
are the markings of Kadashman-Tur-
gu 1400 B. c. Down again, further,
and you are walking on a platform
laid in the time of Ur-Gur centuries
before Abraham, the founder of the
Jewish nation, was born. Down, still
further down, only few feet, and
you are standing on the temple plat
form laid by Sargon l. and Narim Sin,
$500 B. C.-Sargon whose existence
even Biblical scholars have said was
mythical-Sargon, whose name, never
theless, is stamped in every brick.
Finally, through hole broken in this
platform, you may look down past
thirty feet of debris to the site of
ancient Nippur or Calneh and see the
fragments of arches, sacrificial urns
and affairs built at least $500 B. G.
The Septuagint, written 250 B. c.,
places the creation of the world at
about $500; and with this in mind,
it is difficult in the nineteenth century
to gaze upon these evidences of mans
handiwork and realize that the work
men lived more than 1000 years ago.
And yet this is by no means the
strangest feature, for the records of
these workmen show that they lived
not within comparatively few gener-
ations of the beginning. of the world.
but that they were part of civiliza-
tion as highly developed as that of
the Greeks; that men carried on the
business of life in a manner and with
ambitions and desires not very diff
ferent from those of our time, and
that, most remarkable of all, this
state of affairs had then been going on
for many thousands of years. Evil
dence of all this Is found stamped on
the tablets and vases which are being
unearthed today from the ruins of
Calneh. 1t is wonderful story,

bearing on the beginning and end of

CONSUMPTION AND IT'S CURE.

A circular recently sent out by the
Maine Board of Health very usefuily
summarizes the present state of
knowledge in regard to consumption.
Consumption, it is shown, is infecti-
Gus. 1t is not, strictly speaking, her
editary, but is contracted from other
human beings or from the milk or
flesh of animals that have the disease.
The tuberculosis of mankind and
animals-cows, for examples of the
same nature. The main source of in
lection is the expectoration (sputum)
of human beings. The sputum con-
tains thousands of disease germs, and
when one takes these into the mouth
they develop within the body-in the
lungs or stomach-and produce the
disease. So long as the sQutum re-
mains moist it is not infectious, but
when it dries upon the floor. upon
carpets, handkerchiefs or clothing and
is scattered as dust which floats in
the air, it is exceedingly dangerous.
1t is breathed and infects the lungs.
L hS SdlCie9o is Il
focus of infection, especially to those
who occupy the same room with him.
Consumption, in brief, is house
disease and may be guarded against
by ventilation. Pure air is the de-
sideratum for living rooms, school
rooms and sleeping rooms. There is
tendency to recovery in the early
stages of the disease. Cure Is not
impossible under modern treatment.
A large percentage of cases, it is stated,
do recover. In any case there is no
reason for any one to think he is
doomed by heredity, 40 matter what
his family history may be. The con-
sumptive is urged to cough gently
with the mouth closed as much as
possible and never swallow the sput-
UNI, lest the disease be communicated
to the intestines. Living in the open
air is the best treatment The expert
ence of consumptives during the civil
war showed this conclusively. The
consumptive is urged to pass almost
the whole day in the open air.
