DOCTRINE AND WORK.


" The emphasis to-day is not on doctrine but
on the work and progress of the church, so
says of our Northern Presbyterian ex-
changes.
Yes; we have abundant evidence of this All
the churches are vigorously at work. Evangel-
ism, revival, extension, missions, the conquest
of the world for Christ are the great things in
which the great evangelical Christian bodies
are most deeply concerned, and most strenu-
ously seeking after. And we heartily rejoice
that there is so much zeal and energy in all the
service which the church of God must render
to the world. The enterprises of the large Pres
byterian Church of the North, for example, are
on large scale and are most commendable.
But we sincerely regret that it is also true
that g the emphasis is not on doctrine" The
Confession of FaitE has not only been revised,
but has been extensively laid on the shelf and
brief statement sent out to the church and
the world to explain. The union with the
Cumberlands, distinctly anti alvinistic body,
has been effected, each party to the union pro-
testing vigorously that it has not withdrawn
from its doctrinal beliefs Doctrinal preaching
is a thing of the past in great number of pull
pits Strange teachings are sent out in books
and papers. Young men are licensed and or
dained, who refuse to accept the teachings of the
standards on inspiration, the authority of the
Word, the atonement and the resurrection,
and declare that they have been taught to the
contrary in theological seminaries approved and
supported by the Presbyterian church. Verify,
" the emphasis to-day is not on doctrine"
Yet, has it not been cardinal principle with
Presbyterians that doctrine, the teaching of the
Word of God is fundamental to all Christian
life and service? Is it not the method of all the
sacred scriptures to teach doctrine in order to
duty? Is it no longer true that from belief in
truth comes obedience and all TIE service we can
ever render to God and to the world?
Moreover, what has the church to do in the
world but to be the pillar and ground of the
truth? What are Christian missions if there be
no proclamation of the truths Of the gospel?
What kind of evangelism is that which lays no
emphasis on doctrine? Can there be any true
spiritual revival where there is no divine truth?
Can there be any conquest of the world without
the sword Of the Spirit?
This disparagement Of doctrine should be left
to an unbelieving world. It is lamentably prev
alent to-day within the churches of Christ. IT

Speak Distinctly.

Why in the world more women don't
study the art OF articulation and learn
to speak go that the average. mortal can
hear without being screamed at is a
question which is agitating one wom-
ans club just now to great extent. 1t
is q subject which most women would
do well to consider, both as applied to
their own tricks Of speech and to the
training Of children. As frequent a
fault as a shrill voice or one that lacks
the soft modulations which, like the
'low voice." are excellent things in
women" is tho habit Of saying all your
words apparently in your throat, Of
mumbling or Of talking so rapidly-a
sign Of ''nerves"-that 1t is difficult for
any one to understand without asking
for a repetition-a thing every one dis
likes to do If mothers and teachers
alike insisted upon careful enunciation
Of words and sentences by children the
habit Of speaking distinctly would be
as easily established as its reverse =
hard to break.

THE DINING ROOM.

Hts Management In Homes Where No
Maids Are Kept.
In the many homes where no maids
are kept the daily care of the dining
room may be said to begin on the pre-
vious evening, says the Philadelphia
Inquirer. Following the evening meal
and dish washing, the table should be
set for breakfast, then covered with a
light cloth made Of two breadths Of
fine cheesecloth. This keeps of the
dust from fires or windows and is es-
pecially necessary during the months
In which fires abound.
After Strengthening chairs and draw
ing curtains the house mother need
not think of the room until a few mo-
ments before the morning meal. Then
1t = aired, the protecting cover re.
moved, and all Is ready. Following
breakfast the crumbs are brushed up
the table covered with a colored cloth,
the floor IL bare wiped with dry
cloth, the room busted and the shades
partly drawn.
Where there are children in the fam
lily it is well to have daily inspection
Of chairs and door knobs. With the
best of intentions on their part, little
hands may leave grease or stick on
one or the other. and such spots should
be wiped off while fresh with q clean
damp cloth. Once a week the room
should receive a thorough cleaning. The
chairs should be wiped and set outside,
the rugs rolled up and taken out to be
beaten or shaken, the sideboard and
other unmovable furniture covered viii
dust sheets. Open the windows, then
with q cloth or ruffied bag fastened
over the broom wipe down lightly the
side walls and brush or the backs Of
pictures. Brush out window stills and
inside shutters with soft hair brush.
If the door is carpeted sweep thor.
oughly, whisking out corners.
