RELIGION AT HOME.

At the Congregational Union Mr.. Jowett
deli}ered a capital address on piety at
home. He said: 81 am in no mood to
Gie arage the ministries of the schools,

Their ministries are secondary, and that
If make them primary we are disre-
garCi e the fountains. The natural and

ADVICE TO CHOIRS.

DR.. George Bell formerly of the Irish
Church, now of the Church of Scotland)
has given some excellent hints to choirs.
1. Be regular in attending all the SER
vices. What would happen if the minis
ter or the organist came to church only
when the whim to do so might take hold
of him? 2. Be constant at the choir
practice. 1t is absolutely impossible to
sing in a satisfactory way if this be neg
lected. 8. Be careful in attending to
every direction given by the choirmaster
or teacher 4. Be discomfort with your
attachments until you have mastered the
best formation of the voice, the best
breathing, and the most correct pronun-
citation of the words. 5. Be careful to
preserve the utmost kindly feeling in the
ranks of the choir; never on any occa-
sion either give or take offence. 6. Be
careful to remember the object of the
church choir; the choir is a religious So
ciety, for the holy purpose of leading
and adjoining Gods praise in the church
of your parish.

DANGERS OF THE TRAIL

From the heart of the Sawtooth range comes the sad tale of the finding of a lone corpse on the mountain side. How long it has lain thereeis merely a matter of conjuucture. The story, as told in the Nome Nugget, says that from the advanced stage of decomposi tion in which the body was found it had apparently lain there for year at least, if not longer. The lone musher had brayed the terrors of the arctic blizzard during long mush over the divide from Stewart river, and was mak- ing his way, probably, down to Oregon creek and on to Nome when the storm in which he perished overlook him. It is needless to dwell on the pitiful struggle fought out all alone, amid the bowling blasts of the northerly gale, laden with it's death-dealing icy partl- cles. in a temperature thirty-f7e to forty degrees below zero. There are hundreds of men iu Nome who know what such night means.
 Alone iu that spot, so little frequent ed that the body may have been GOV cred and uncovered by the suows of two winters, the unfortunate musher came to his tragic end. No que missed him. Like many in this far northland, he had left his friends behind to seek the elusive gold in the barren creeks. Doubtless in some spot of this small earth there are those who think of the unknown dead and his hopes and griefs and who would mourn his solitary tragedy if they only knew.
 It is miserable climax to the career of one who doubtless had dreams of a happier ending amid friends, who,amid disappointments and losses, still had hopes, the long struggle for wealth sue cessfuIly over, to return and live at home at last. With all its amenities the arctic life has its forbiddinG side. The fate of the unknown has often come near being the fate of some who live and work among us. The men who face these dangers are forgotten, but their works will live after them, and, having labored, others shall enter into and enjoy the fruits of their labors.
