Chamber Takes Action Against the
Governments fshes
Brussels, Feb. Sin the chamber of
deputies to-day a petition inviting Bel
gium to offer to arbitrate between Great
Britain and the Transvaal was debated
at some length. The foreign minister,
M. P. de Favereau, said the government
did not object to the petition being re-
ferred to committee but they consid-
cred the authors of the petition mistook
the meaning of article q of The Hague
convention, under which it was desired
to act.
M. Maenhout, reporter for the COM
mission, having the petition in charge,
said he would support a petition sug-
gesting Belgian proposal of arbitra-
tion in the South African war, deelar-
ing that Great Britain could not take
umbrage at the intervention of Belgium
because The Hague convention, to
which England adhered, provided for

SUNDAY OBSERVANCE.

The writer cares little how hi:
neighbor carries himself on sunday.
He may pick his cherries, his black.
berries. or dig his potatoes, and he
will never be interfered with by Hays
of Essex Junction, and Hays OF Essex
junction simply imposes upon his
neighbor the same obligations he
grants to him.
There is nothing prettier-no
picture was ever encased in brighter
gold-than to see people happy, and
sunday or no sunday, happiness is
what we should all aim for, not only
for ourselves but for those about us.
We have lived through too many
sombre ages. Its time we forgot the
solemnity of our fathers, and its time
that we were permitted to make OF
Sunday what our ideal pictures to
US Essex Record.
The worship of Almighty God, in
some form and accepted place. is a
duty that cannot lightly be over
ridden. After that a mans conscience
will readily dictate a just and proper
medium between the grim austerity OF
the Puritan sabbath and the roaring
Dissertation OF the Sunday''celebrator. 2
One rule seems to us memorable
No one has a right to compel others to
labor that his Sabbath may be made
according to his own peculiar ideas.
Neither must his amusements encroach
on the prerogatives of others. Others
have just as much right to sunday.
After that, it seems to US largely
matter between the man and his
inward MENTOR Vergennes Enter
prise.
Here are two ideas respecting the
observance of Sunday or the Sabbath
that are representative of those held
by very many people. One of them
leaves divine worship out entirely;
the other includes it. One idea makes
a person responsible only to himself
and only for himself; the other
recognizes that he owes an obligation
to God and that he is in a measure
his brothers keeper. The one
sacrifices everything to happiness; the
other intimates that there is such
hing as duty. One would make of
sunday an opportunity for each
person to follow those pursuits which
yield him the most pleasure; the other
would attend to worship and then
'ollow such forms of recreation as do |
him the most good without imposing
BURDENS on others or interfering with |
heir observance OF the day.
1t win be observed that neither of
he above excerpts contemplates a
'eturn to the time when Sunday was
lay of solemnity and unmixed piety.

his view of the day is extremely small

and growing smaller. Good Christians
do not complain if, having made some
recognition TO God OF mis- goodness and
mercy, the balance OF the day is spent
in rest or such forms of innocent
recreation as best satisfy the person,
provided they do not rob the day
of its primary significance. Walking,
driving. visiting. letter-writing,
reading or things of a kindred nature
are not ont of harmony with a proper
observance of Sunday, according TO
present ideas. There is a wide line
separating these things from boisterous
sports, bowling excursions and the
like. As to labor. the farmer who gets
in a load of hay on Sunday rather
than see it spoiled by rain is no longer
regarded a wicked sinner, but our
New England communities do not
look with favor on the farmer who
works and asks his help to work the
same on Sunday as on weekdays.
SO long as America continues a
Christian country, so long will Sunday
be something besides a day OF
lnbridled license-worse than other
lays, instead OF better. A safe rule 10
follow is to so observe the day as to be

three years ago. This year, Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont observe
it. Old Home Week is a bow to
sentiment, almost solely. II is time
when the natives of the state, now
residing in other states, are welcomed
back TO the ever-dear scenes of their
childhood. They are invited TO revisit
the old home, to linger over familiar
spots. to renew hallowed memories, TO
strengthen the bond that ties them TO
the land of their nativity. Special
ceremonies have been arranged in
many towns and a large attendance is
anticipated in the aggregate. 1t is a
time for the reviewing of state and
local history, too generally neglected.
The youth can learn more OF the
struggles, burdens and privations OF
the early pioneers. They can take
inspiration from them and from the
later pioneers who, having .journeyed
to other states and taken part in the
broadening of our great Union, now
return to pay respect and homage to
the mother state. The effect cannot
fail 10 be salutary. The observance is
fortunately rid of the speculative, mer-
cenary idea. To introduce that would
be TO break into the harmony of the
event and destroy its full meaning.

up its sleeve for Bro. Greene OF the
