Inc Salvation Army has estab-
lished stations in all parts of New
York City where poor children can
get breakfast before going to
school. 1t is believed that seventy
thousand children in that city go
to school without breakfast.-Er.
If you want to make your relig-
ious meeting interesting, go early,
sing if you can, stay long enough
after church for some one to speak
to you, and you talk some to your
friends and strangers, it will help
you; do not forget to look in, if
you do not put in the collection
basket.
1t is very reasonable that a boys
education and usefulness thereby
will be commensurate with the
time and effort used to become ed
ucated. Now, if your happiness
in heaven amounts to the effort,
time and money that you put into
the church and it's work here, how
happy will you be? Let truth
answer.
If your child does not 60 to
school nor attend church services
because of your neglect or indif-
ference, do you not feel. ashamed
when you e other children being
educated and taught in the church?
Such children will be useful and
successful in life, but your neglect
ed one will be worthless-live and
die in ignorance.
During this winter a man more
than so years old told the writer
that he learned his letters after he
became a man of family; and now
he reads well, writes his own bus
mess letters, and has a religious
experience that he is not ashamed
of and is trying to lead others to
Christ. The Bible he uses was
bought of money earned at night.
Is that not heroism?
OF the danger of religious neg
lect, the N. Y. Advocate puts it this
way: "Parents who habitually
neglect family worship and the
proper observance of the holy
Sabbath are placing a powerful
temptation in the way of their
children. In most cases they de-
sire to have their children attend
church and grow up Christians,
but while they may go to church
for a time, when they grow older
they will remember the example
set before them in the home and
fall into careless and worldly hab-
its. The parents who love them
more than life will bear a large
share of the blame for the worldly
lives of their children"

l TAKE from the New Madrid
Record:
Rev. A. T. Osborn gave three of
his lectures, with demonstrations,
on "Spiritualism," at the opera
house this week. The demonstra-
tons accompanying his lectures
are entertaining and provoke con-
siderable mirth in the audience, as
he performs his "tricks' like a
true magician. The purpose of his
lectures is to explain and expose
these mysteries and show their
fraud to the people and strike a
blow to the medium and spiritual
seance, by convincing the people
that the disembodied spirit claimed
to be produced by the medium is
mythical and does not exist. The
last night of his lecture quite a
number in the audience expressed
themselves that there are no such
things as ''real spirits, or ghosts
If a man will explain away these
things he will have done more for
the Christian religion than all the
preaching in christendom.
How so, brother? Would not
the demonstrating of the reality OF
spirit-life aid Christianity by
forcing belief in its teachings rs to
the other world? Some years ago
an eminent divine who had
preached the orthodox doctrine-I
believe he was a Presbyterian-for
forty years, upon his death-bed
said in reference to the Great
Question, 81 would give the world
to know!" He didn't know, but
would not the establishment be-
yond cavil or doubt of the spiritual
existence for which longs every
soul, been a blessing to him?
Above all, how could it have
evilly affected his Christianity?

IF there is anything on earth OF
greater uncertainty in it's conclu-
sions-speaking from the view
point of justice and reason, and
law itself-than the average Su-
preme Court, it has kept itself
hidden from my knowledge. 1t
will, if the exigencies require it,
to-day write itself down wrong of
yesterday; no previous adiudica-
ton of a l%aw-point is worth so
much that tomorrow may not see
it banished, homeless and dis
graced. Theology may be specu-
lation, as Ingersoll said; medicine,
experiment; but law-li like the
wind, it is invisible, intangible and
desultory, changing to all the
points of the compass within the
twenty-four hours. So little de-
pendence have the knowing ones
upon the stability of the higher
courts that even of the Chief Tri-
bunal of this great Republic it is
the current saying that it "goes
with the Government''-and that
it changes with the government as
facilely as the stroke of a band
masters baton in an eight-page
overture. I am led to these re-
Elections through reading the de-
bate in Congress over the freight
rate bill. MI. Mccall of Massa-
chusetts is against the bill. He
maintained that it was incompat-
ible with the fundamental prin-
ciples of private property. The
granting of authority to the inter-
state commerce commission to fix
rates, he said, was crossing the
line between regulation and con-
fiscation in a manner that out
ragged the most patent principles
of justice, and he inquired if any
one could imagine a more ideal
method for the destruction of pri-
vate property and one more likely
to corrupt the American people.
The powers vested by the bill, he
said, were too vast and dangerous
to be welded by any political gov
eminent and were likely to lead to
the destruction of cities, and to
government ownership of railroads
over the pathway of confscation.
The very air, he said, vibrated
with the demands of an aroused
public appetite. "But who i'm
agines," he inquired, "that the SUI
preme court of the United States
will stand between the national
government and it's victim?" He
declared Immediately afterwards
that unfortunately there was a dis
position on the part of the courts
to uphold the policy Of the party
in power. He stated the general
belief in this, but how many peo-
pie stop to consider the danger to
the Republic if that belief be well
founded?
