A Horror of se1f-Deceptio N.

John Fiske said that Mr.. Huxley
had a great horror of self-deception.
Above all things, he desired to be
entirely candid with himself. 1t is
a trait that every one of us should
have. But the outcome of honesty
with ones self cannot be other than
a clear submission to the God of all,
who knows us better than we do our
selves. The standing warning to
every man in the Scriptures is not to
deceive himself. 1t is certain, tbs we
cannot deceive God; it is easy to de-
ceive ones self. When a man says he
has no sin, he deceives himself. When
he says he has no need of God or of
Christ he deceives himself. Self-hon-
esty demands candle of stronger
power than the poor blind light of
perverted human nature. You ought
to have horror of self-deception.
That man whose candid spirit leads
him to turn away from Christ is the
most wretchedly deceived man in the
world.-Baptist Union.

TRAIN 2s7 MILES LONG.
Freight Cars Enough to Make 1t Up
Handled In One Day In Pitts
burg Recently.

Some idea of the magnitude of the
congestion which has interfered with
the freight traffic of the leading rail-
roads can be gathered from the infor-
nation given in the dispatches from
Pittsburg, telling of the efforts of the
railroads centering in that city to clear
their terminals of accumulated cars,
of late, reports the Cleveland Leader.
According to the figures given there
were moved in and out Of Pittsburg in
a single day on five different roads,
total OF 927 trains, consisting of 46,225
cars, with an estimated freight ton
mage of 1,756,55O tons. This resulted
in relieving the blockade temporarily,
but it is said that all sidetracks within
30 miles of Pittsburg are yet filled with
cars destined to that city, and when
these are moved there will be re-
newal of the congestion.
It seems almost incredible that so
much work could have been done in the
freight yards of single city in one
day. Some of the largest freight cars
are 60 feet in length. If the average
length of these cars were 35 feet, all
Of them put together would have
made train 1,517,s75 feet, or more
than 2s7 miles, in length. This means
| that the average length of the 927
trains moved was almost third of a

fire of life; it is the light of eternity.
Rev. Dr.. West.
Society depends upon mutual hon

The sinner suffers because he
chooses to sin; he will suffer as Tonga as
he sins.-Rev. DR.. Holderby.
1t matters not how faith comes.
whether through the intellect, as in
the case of ST. Thomas, or in the heart,
as in the case of ST. John, or as the re-
suit of long education, as in the case of
st. Peter. God has many ways of
bringing different characters to faith;
but that blessed thing which the Bible
calls faith is state of soul in which
the things of God become glorious cer-
tainties.-F. w. Robertson.

DEFENSE OF THE ONION.
Would he No Gastronomic Art,
Says This Writer.

The onion is one of those strenuous
vegetables about which one cannot be
Indifferent. One either yearns for it
with a passionate longing OF else ut
terly repudiates it and everybody who
has any trafficking with it.
If one never had to take ones on
ions at second hand it would not be SO
bad. If the law would only set apart
one day week for the consumption of
onions and forbid it, under penalty of
fine and imprisonment-preferably i'm
prisonment-at all other times it
would be boon to the world. The
onion hater would at least know when
to take to the woods and how long to
stay there, says the Providence Jour
nal.
As for banishing the onion from the
kitchen, that would be crime. There
have been poets who sung its praises
but perhaps some of the prose rhapso-
dies are just as eloquent. For in
stance, if you want to crush your
neighbor who regards your dish OF
onions with a supercilious eye just ask
him if he knows that the onion is called
"the rose among the roots.''
| Ask him if he knows that without
it there would be no gastronomic art;
that It's presence lends color and en-
chantment to the modest dish, its alb
sence reduces the rarest dainty tc
hopeless insipidity and the diner to de
spair."
1t is quite possible that your Taught,
neighbor may decline to follow Thu
hint and may show signs of not being
plunged into despair pending the ad
dition of onions to his own menu. Tn,
antionionist is stiff-necked party.

be dug the night before the funeral.
The grave under no circumstances
must be allowed to stand open over
night, says the Chicago Tribune.
In the small cemeteries the grave
digging is often done by friends of
the family of the deceased, and to
ask them to dig the grave the night
before the burial would be looked
upon as nothing short of a personal
offense. 1t would mean sure death
for the digger within the year, and
it would mean that the dead would
not rest in the grave SO dug contrary
to all tradition,
Among many the idea prevails that
it means bad lucE to the family of
the dead person and would be no less
an offense than to leave the dead
body exposed in the same way all the
night.

More than century ago the fear Of
being buried alive led to the establish
ment in German cities of mortuary
chambers, in which a bellrope is placed
in the hands of each corpse. In his ra-
cent volume on death and Sudden

there is no case on record of that bell
having ever been rung anywhere.

STILL BARRED FOR NO REASON.

Senator Bailey, of Texas, says, II
have always considered the presidency
beyond me and beyond any other
Southern men of my generation. )"
The Senator seems to be reconcil-
ed to the situation, too. More than
third of century has elapsed
since Appomattox. AS Bailey is still a
young man he is likely to live more
than a third of a century longer. When
is this presidential interdict against
Southern men to end? The South
furnished the bulk of the electoral
votes which the Democratic party polls.
1t supplies most of the brains which the
Democracy has. But it is shut ont
from the prizes of the national eonven-
tons Just as effectualIy as 1T was while
the war of 1861. 80 was under way. The
Texas Senator appears to accept this
state of things. There are many South
ern Democrats, however, who are not
so docile. Some of them may be heard
from on this point before the delegates
to the convention of 1904 are chosen.

STILL LAUNDERING IN ISLANDS.

The President at first countermanded
General Chaffee's orders virtually de-
claring war against the Mohammedans
of Mindanao, one of the southern is
lands, and after Luzon the most popu-
lous; but he was little too late, as a
part of our troops had already advanc-
ed, and the military authorities were
cabled to go ahead. The Moros of Min
danao are the people with whom Gen
eral Bates negotiated a treaty early IN
the war, paying the chiefs a subsidy
and allowing them to continue slavery
and polygamy. That was supposed to
fix the Moros all right, and in the war
with Aguinaldo's people they were
either neutral or sided with the Ameri-
cans. They are bold and warlike, and
the movement against them may mark
another and more protracted chapter in
the needless, laundering Philippine
war. In this business we appear to
stumble from bad to worse Naturally
the military leaders in the Philippines
welcome fresh collisions, for it brings
more troops, more war and promotion,
and a greater outflow of money.

recently estimated the number of peo-
pie who come into California this
season on coIonlsts' tickets at $4,000,
an increase of 90 per cent, over the
number last year. Traffic managers of
Western and Southwestern railroad
lines have evidence to convince them
that during the season just past over
million Americans went home-seekIng
westward from the Eastern and Mid
die States. Every State and Territory
west of the Missouri River has received
some portion of this horde. And there
is every reason to believe that the tide
of home-aeeklng IS not ebbing, and
that 1t will continue to tnundate the
