Sympathy of Tears.


Again, 1t is the use of trouble to ca
pacitate us for the office of sympathy.
The priests under the old dispensation
were set apart by having water sprin-
killed. upon their hands, feet and head,
and by the sprinkling of tears people
are now set apart to the Office of SYM
pathy. When we are In prosperity, we
like to have a great many young peo-
pie around us, and we laugh when they
laugh, and we romp when they romp,
and we sing when they sing, but when
we have trouble we like plenty Of old
folks around. Why? They know how
to talk. Take an aged mother, rs years
of age, and she Is almost omnipotent
in comfort Why? She has been
through 1t all. At o'clock in the morn
ing she goes over to comfort a young
mother who has just lost her babe.
Grandmother knows all about that
trouble. Fifty years ago she felt it.
AT II O'Clock of that day she goes over
to comfort a widowed soul. She knows
all about that. She has been walking
in that dark valley 20 years. At
o'clock in the afternoon some one
knocks at the door, wanting bread. She
knows all about that. Two or three
times in her life she came to her last
loaf. AT 10 o'clock that night she goes
over to sit up with some one severely
sick She knows all about 1t. She
knows all about fevers and pleurisies
and broken bones. She has been doc
toring all her life, spreading plasters
and pouring out bitter drops and shak-
ing up hot pillows and contriving things
to tempt a poor appetite. Drs. Aber-
nethy and Rush and Hosack and Har-
vey were great doctors, but the great
est doctor the world ever saw is an old
Christian woman. Dear me, do we
not remember her about the room when
we were sick in our boyhood? Was
there any one who could ever 80 touch

Of the horrible Boxer uprising in Chi
IA and one Of the aids they invoked
in eoadlng the Boxers to violence was
hypnotism. These priests exercise q
great influence and are regarded In
the light OF miracle workers. Their
most extravagant statements are re-
ceived with implicit belief. They as
sured the Boxers that they were inTul-
nerable and that the BULLETS Of the
foreign devils could not injure them.
How they pat their knowledge Of hyp-
notism into effect is thus narrated BY

THE usual malicious stories were
circulated IN Boxers' plaeards Of for
eigners kidnapping children TO turn
them into soup or pound them into
