One obvious consideration remains.
Jesus is increasingly saying, "Eph-
atha" to every human soul. He is
saying, "Be opened to those dor
mant faculties of our spiritual nature
which we have overlaid with the flesh.
The circumstances of the daily life of
each one of us provide the medium
through which the call comes. But we
are not automatic, we are not machines,
and consequently the sight of the di-
vine humanity is intensified by our
miserable human perversity, which en-
ables us to go on hardening ourselves
year after year against the influence
of the God within us. Human good
ness or character is like the beauty
that you admire in a flower; it is from
within and not from without. You
cannot make a flower beautiful by
paint and enamel; you cannot make a
lie beautiful by external moralities
and austerities and the like-the
beauty that is on the flower was IN the
flower first. -Archdeacon Basil Will
berfore, D. d., in Homiletic Review.
The great truth that man is a spir-
itual being with unseen relations of
grandest import is again to find priests
and prophets who will declare it with
voices of power. If the age is mate
rial, sordid, low in aim and purpose,
it is because the vision has been OBJ
scured, the heavens have fallen to be
merely a congregation of vapors; the
mystery has gone away from the stars,
wonder has faded from the soul, rever-
ence no longer presses men to their
the universe is looked upon as
mechanical, a contrivance left aside,
and perhaps forgotten by the machin-
list. But the mystic is ineradicable in

Social Dissipation.

A young woman from a nearby town. who was recently visiting friends in Cleveland, was taken sick at the the- ater. It became necessary to call a doctor from the audience, and one promptly appeared at the manager's of- fice to render her Asslstance. After learning her symptoms. he ordered her to take a Red Raven. She was sent home in her carriage. When the ex- citement was all over, the manager said to the doctor. T would serve Red Raven to every lady in my audience If I thought it would keep them we'll That is not exactly the idea" said the physician. 'eThis is a particular case. This young woman has been suffering from too much social dissipation. She has been going somewhere every night for the last two or three weeks. no doubt. A theater with refreshments af- trward, party, late dinner and de- cidedly too many luneheons. Her sys- tenn has became overtaxed. Had she occasionally taken a Red Raven she would readily have stood this strain. As It was, she allowed herself to break down. There is nothing like Red Aaven for people in her condition But the trouble Is they do not know it."

Out of it, in the same year. was organized the province of Manitoba, which was received into the union. In 1871 the province of British Columbia, between the Rockies and the Pacific coast, was also admitt- ed, and In 1878 the maritime province of Prince Edward island joined the federation.

SELLING A DAUGHTER.

Right-thinhing Americans find it very difficult to understand or appreciate the feelings sctuating Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany as exhibited in his anxiety to marry his daughter. Princess vic- toria of Prussia, to the disreputable young King Aiphonso, of Spain. Royal etiquette, we presume, demands that the Princess shall be sold to royalty. and possibly Alphonso is the most available party. She is yet a young girl. and of course is powerless to avoid the fate marked out for her. As the wife of one of the most absolute young reprobates in Europe she will be no more to him than will any one of the many other women who share his fa- vors. The young rake will get a Queen. she will get a life of shameful neglect. and her father will possibly by the bargain and sale We thought Wilhelm a man of more and better repute than to welcome this transac- ton with delight. as he Is said to do.
 The whole matter is revolting. but it seems to be the way of royalty. If the young girl should find the courage and oportunity to marry some reputable and virile tradesman or other member of the common people we presume there would be a terrible uproar over the event. The marriage would be an- nulled. no doubt. and the young woman locked up to keep her out of further mischief. Yet we cannot help think ing how vastly better it would be for her if she could exercise her own will and wed some good man outside the nobility who would be husband in fact as well as in name.--how. much better would such a marriage be than is this union with one of the most disreputable specimens of European royalty. But that Is one of the penalties of being the daughter of a sovereign.

SOME FAULTY REASONING.


 Referring to the efforts to re-estab- gish the army canteen, and the outcry against it by many weii-meaning peo- pie, The Chicago Tribune says:
 xatien do not live at army posts and do not understand the ways of the aver age soldier. They mean well, but the arguments they advanced for their mis- of sheer ignorance. erroneous hypothe- sis. and misguided enthusiasm.
 It is not charged or claimed that those who are opposing the canteens at army posts are ignorant people on gem eral subjects. They may be educated. cry question but this one. Nor is 1t charged that they are hypocritical, or insincere. for they may be thoroughly honest in their belief. and entirely sim cere In their opposition to the canteens If is claimed. however. that they are fin most cases ignorant of the conditions existing at the posts. Certainly they cannot be as well informed. either as to the conditions or as to what is best for the soldiers and the army as are the ofhoers who are stationed at the posts. and who keep themselves fully informed as to what is transpiring. It is reasonable to suppose that they know better what is best for the individual soldier, for the army as q whole and for military discipline than do those well-intentioned people. many of whom were never at an army post, but who reason and argue entirely from their own convictions of what should and should not be done or allowed.
 One over-zealous correspondent of The Tribune takes the position that one of the arguments used in favor of the canteens, namely, that they are or- deriy and we'll conducted. is really a strong reason for opposing them. He reasons that a nice. clean place where : drinks can be bought and indulged in, will prove an overpowering temptation to the soldiers. and that they will go there and imbibe a taste for drink. To carry this argument to its Legitimate conclusion it would be eEbetter to estab- . AASh h%4a @AA sAao dAAkAy POobp lnC ACWC5t and most disreputable saloons, with gambling-houses and brothels attached. SO that the model young soldier would keep away from them.
 We say this argument Is just as sen- sible and legitimate as the other. One main object of these ariny canteens if we have a proper conception of them, zs to protect and guard the soldiers against the evils of intemperance. If 1t were possible to keep all kinds of intoxicating drinks absolutely away from the soldiers. except as dealt out by the army physicians. we do not deny that 1t might be best for them, mor- ally and physically, but this is impos- sible and the opponents of the canteens know 1t. The most disreputable dens win be established near every army or part of an army and the men will re- sort to them, for 1t is impossible to prevent it.
 In short, if a properly conducted army canteen is not really in the inter- est of temperance. and in the interest of the moral and physical well-being of the army, we comics that we badly mfsunderstand it.

The sMnxne verdict.

Chattanooga Times.
 As it was a senatorial and not a ju- dicial inquiry that resulted in Judge Swayne's acquittal in definance of the proof, there can be no contempt of court in declaring the investigation a farce and the verdict travesty. In fact the senate has struck very severe blow at popular confidence in the puri- ty of tn bench and the integrity of the take this decision seriously. The hope is that they will just consider the source and let 1t go at that A lot of grizzled political sinners aren't compe- tent to form a judicial opinion of the the slightest political motive is in- volved.

TURNING ON THE LIGHT.

Bu6aio Bilrs divorce suit and the testimony in the case. Is bound to knock . big hole in the estimation in which that spectacular individual is held. To all the small boys and to a great many of the larger growth, he stands out as . hero of romance brought up to date. A great fighter. a great scout, great buffalo killer and various other things. without fear and without reproach. is about the way they look on him.
 If the testimony now coming out Is true. he escapes being a drunken brute by . very narrow margin. of course much of the evidence may be over. drawn. but there must be large grain of truth In 1t, especially that part al- luding to his absolute habits. Indeed, one of his own witnesses makes the rather reluctant admission that 'he came home sober quite few times to my knowledge" thus creating the im- pression that his normal condition was wearing jag along with his other adcrnments.
 Then we have the testimony of his wife that she had to support the family by sewing while he was carousing and blowing in his money. On his side he deposes that she treated him badly, and witness tells of hearing him de- clare that the only way to live with such woman was to get drunk and stay drunk. All of which Is mainly in- terestins for the light it throwss on the domestic life and habits of the idol of all lovers of spectacular showmen.
