Only One WAY.

God is Infinitely various. His great
arms can hold the itfant like mother
and build a strong wall about the ma
ture man who is fighting the MONDAY
fight of life, and lay the bridge of sun
set over which the old man s feet may
walk serenely into the eternal day
How shall the soul carry with it the
sense of safety and assurance in God
which it has Won within his earthly
care. forth into this unknown, un-
trodden Vastness whittier it now must
go? Only in one way: only by deepen
ing as deeply as possible its assurance
that 1t is GOd-not accident. not its
own ingenuity, not its brethrens kind
ness-that it is God who made this
earthly life so rich and happy. God is
too vast, too infinite for earth He is
too vast Tor time, and needs eternity.
Wrapped into him the soul may be not
merely resigned: it may be even i'm
patient to explore those larger re-
gions where the power which has made
itself known to it here shall be able to
display to it all the completeness of
its nature and its love. The child of
God may wish for eternity. sure that
there upon the vaster fields he shall
see vaster exhibitions OF that power
and grace whic he has learned COM
pletely to believe in here.-Phillips

A Prayer.


Give me. dear Lord, the sweet phiioso-
ply
That will enable me with friendly eye,
To view the things that have no joys for
The ways of other men that pass me
by.
I would not frown at jolly, solemn wise,
And be content shrewdly to criticise.
Give me the wide philosophy that finds
In each poor jest and antic something
good;
Show me the tie that to others binds,
That makes men lovable. when under
stood.
Too long rye had the narrower wish to
be
clad in the garb of cold austerity.
Give me a faith. just for each common
day,
Not in vague things beyond my ken and
care:
Let me believe that down life's darkest
way
The CRIME and dust hide something
sweet and fair.
Let me find something in each sordid
OF hidden good that is. or might have
been.

brigade meet the charging rebel lines
in a crash well calculated to develop
all the ferocity in soldier nature.
Il remember that as l looked at the
faces of our men as they went over
the first rebel line and into the second,
1 had a feeling of dismay at what
might happen. Every face was ablaze
with fury, and the men as they sprang
forward into the melee looked like so
many demons. That was time for
cruelty. That was a time for brutal
thrust and merciless stroke. but in an
instant, it seemed TO me, two or three
hundred confederates threw down
their rifles. unbuckled their belts, and
threw their cartridge boxes to the
ground, and there, in the midst OF the
battle, saw our men offer their can
teens to and shake hands with the
men who, ten minutes before. they had
been striving to kill. Chicago Inter

Count Douglas, descendant of a
Scotch soldier of fortune has pro-
posed a resolution in the Prussian diet
asking the ministry to bring in a bill
imposing more rigid restrictions on
the liquor traffic. All parties except
the Radicals supported the measure.
and the Radicals did not speak against
it. The resolution of Count Douglas
set forth that he was no abstainer him
self, and that. on proper occasions, he
liked a good drink. But he was deep
ly impressed with the injury inflicted
in Germany by excessive indulgence in
drink.
The Germans. he added spend
3 3,OO0,O0O.0 900 marks ($75O, ,OO0,OOO per
year in drink, twice the amount of
the army and navy budgets, and $780,
600 persons were brought before the
courts through drink. The number Of
criminals was increasing by 10000 an
nually. and the number of convicted
persons had increased from 2992 249 in
1882 to 47S,139 in 1899. III the insane
asyfums intemperance furnished 80
per cent of the inmates, and so per
cent of Germany's idiots were the chill
dren OF Incorporate people. The loss
TO industry through excessive drinking
was lncalculable. Germany while
leading the world in social reform leg
lSlauon, had done practically nothing
against drinking. The United States
was far more advanced than Germany
IN this respect. He cOnd emned the
drinking cult in the universities, say
ing 1t was jolly life while it lasted,
but it had many tragical sequeIs.
Two practicing physicians followed
with statements drawn from their own
experience. DR.. Endemann asserted
that alcoholfsts succumbed to tubercle
BACILLUS much more easily than others.
and DR.. Martens said the mortality in
all diseases was three or four times
greater in the case of alcohOlsts than
among abstainers, comparing persons

AS the One Hundred and Forty-sev-
enth New York was making its glo-
rious record. the Iron Brigade swept
forward and entered the woods just
as Reynolds was being carried to the
rear dead. The West had in that line
it's noblest sons, there to defend and
to crimson the soil of our state with
their blood, and what a fight they
made on that July morning, OF this
brigade the Twenty-fourth Michigan
lost 60 per cent killed and wounded,
and. in addition. SO missing; the
Nineteenth Indiana lost So per cent
and so missing; the Second Wiscon-
sin 43 per cent and 20 missiHs: the
Seventh Wisconsin Al per cent and
43 missing. This regiment had 10 Of
ficers and 271 men killed in battle
during its term of service. Taking
the five regiments of the Iron Brigade
as a whole, we find the killed and
wounded to have been 49.5 per cent,
with 249 missing, many of whom were
among the dead.

When you come to Jesus and rest
in Him you discover how God loves
you. not because He made you, not
with love that depends upon your
goodness, but with the everlasting
love of a Father, a love so great
and wise that He would not if He
could make your sins be less a bur
den to your souls, but would increase
that burden that you might be driven
to be rid of your sins. And, when
you come to Him and find how He
loves you and takes the burden from
your soul. you will love Him. That
is what you want. Your sins are great
ly aggravated by the stony hardness
of your hearts toward Cod. Jesus
takes it all away. Your mind has the
repose of faith, your conscience the
repose of forgiveness, your hearts the
repose of love.

Col Walter H. French, tlS clerk
of the House, has. perhaps without
exception, the finest collection of
scrap books of any public man in the
country. says the Washington Times.
Not only scrap books, however, but
autographs of statesmen long since
passes away, and rare old public doc
uments, the history of which is most
fascinating.
Among his collection is the original
petition of Mrs. Lincoln, widow of the
martyred President, to the Congress
of the United States, asking for pen
sion. The petition is signed Mrs. A.
Lincoln"
A copy of that petition was printed
a few years ago. Just now it is of
peculiar interest, the statement having
been recently made that the widow of
no President had ever applied for a
pension.

Henry S. Carr, now a deputy at the
county Jail, was one of the youngest
spies in the service Of either side in
the war between the North and the
South. At the age of 10 Mr.. Carr re-
ceived his first instruction.
1t was the year that the Louisville
forts were built. The order for all
able-bodied men of certain ages to as
sist in the construction of the forts
had been issued, and many Southern
SympathiZers were looking about for
some way to evade the edict, says the
Louisville Courier-Jour Judge S.
A. Carr, father of the deputy jailer,
openly declared that he would do no
work for the soldiers from the North.
He also declared that his negroes
should not help build the forts, and
the officer in command of the federal
troops heard OF it. A squad of soldiers
was dispatched at double-Quick time to
the Carr homestead, which was with
in a hundred yards of Western Park.
When the soldiers arrived they
found a barefoot boy sitting upon
fence post. He was swinging his legs
and whistling as only some boys can.
A lieutenant was in charge of the SOL
diers and he drew rein when he saw
the boy. He inquired for Judge Carr.
The boy shook his head and answered
that he did not known him.
The soldiers passed. An hour later
they returned and the boy was still
upon the gate post All day the SOL
diers searched in the woods and all
day the boy sat upon the gate post.
The following morning the soldiers
returned and again the boy was upon
the gate post.

The Point OF View.

The good and we'll meaning people
who are always troubling themselves
about the religious consistency Of their
neighbors can spend their time much
more profitably by setting their own
spiritual household in order One
must not inquire too closely into the
motives OF our fellows when their pro-
fession and their practices do not seem
to us in close harmony; for after all
the man who processes nothing and
does nothing, and is. therefore. from
his point of view entirely consistent,
is not quite as useful in a religious
sense as is the man who processes a
great deal. and, although seemingly
falling short of his professions, still
does something and tries to do more
1t is very easy to say that the latter
is a hypocrite: but the truth of that
assertion depends on whether his
shortcomings are matters of choice or
Of necessity.
