The Worth CT His Money.

Not seldom in highland districts the
attendance at church during unpropi-
tious weather is but scanty. One min
lister, finding himself on Il bosterQus
Sunday confronted with but one soil
tary auditor, who happened to be a
gruff, outspoken character, took him
into his confidence, with a view to
propitiate him. 'Will l go on with the
sermon, John?" John answered gruff-
~, "Of course" Getting into the pull
pit and leaning over it, he asked, "Will
l give you the Gaelic sermon or the
English One?" "Gie's BATH Ye're
weel paid for IT," said John, more
gruff1y still.-Dundee Advertiser.

Home MISSIONS.
MANNING AUXILIARY

An immense field for Home
Mission work lies waiting for
the church among the foreigners
who in large numbers are COM
ing to our country An oppor-
tunity is given for evangeliza
tion and Christian education that
we must not, dare not neglect
at our own peril. Christ looked
upon the fainting hungry null
titude and had compassion upon
them. We must look through
his eyes today upon this multi
tude of people who have come to
US and having compassion upon
them. heed his command: "Give
ye them to eat" When. where,
how? Now is the time, while
the number needing help is un-
der control; the where is to be
found in the city, town, or rural
district that has claimed them as
it's citizens; the how will doubt
less vary from many causes
differences of need, nationality
and location-all calling for diff.
ferent methods and measures.
but all with the same purpose
to lift up the Christ that all may
be drawn unto him.
The NJ. E. Church, South, has
or should have, large part in
this work, and the Home Mis-
sion Department of its general
board and the Woman's Home
Mission Society should be plan
ming jointly and wisely for in
tensive yel widely extended
missionary work for foreigners

Drunka1d Making.

Artemus Ward and Mark Twain
once called on John 3. Cough. One
of the jokers had given directions in
the barroom before going to Coughs
room, and accordingly every FIVE min
utes during their visit a boy appeared
bearing tray with three glasses OF
brandy. Cough stood 1t for while,
but when the fourth tray appeared he
excused himself, saying: ''It may be
joke to you, but cannot smell or see
LIQUOR without the appetite for it being
aroused"
Just now the Indignation of the pub
lie is awakened against those who have
been introducing cheap whiskey under
the guise Of medicine, and making
drunkards OF men surreptitiously.
Many man has thus learned the drink
habit whose principles would have pre-
vented his tasting alcoholic beverages
had he been aware of their nature.
! There are men to whom the slightest
flavor of alcohol by taste or smell IS
enough to arouse the demon OF drink.
There are many who may acquire the
taste for such beverages from the ply
sician's prescriptions Of alcoholic drugs.
There is no argument against alcoholic
nostrums as awaking such appetltes
unconsciously to the patient, that does
not hold good against these forms OF
medicines as well. What virtue is
there in Doctors prescription to make
such poison not poison?
The really active part OF a drug con-
sists of the active principle, which
forms but a trife of its bulk. The rest
lis useless and encumbering dirt, the
alcohol employed to prevent decompo-
sition and sugar and other substances
to disguise the taste, most OF which is
due to the dirt Nowadays the ac-
tive principles are extracted aod dis
ipensed in the form OF minute granules
each containing the virtues of spoon.
full of the ancient mixtures. These
may be dissolved in plain water, hot OF
cold, when it is desired to administer
them in solution.
| Physicians who habitually employ
these active principles avoid the dan
ger of unwittingly making drunkarcs
by neglecting in their hurry to ascer'
tain whether there exists hereditary
impulse in that direction. No man can
insure himself against occasional Tor
getfulness: and it is better to walk IL
wavs that are safe, even if We do forget
and the night is dark. No one acquires
taste for alcohol from little granule
containing simply the medicine ano

PIE AND THE PRESIDENCY.

Presidential candidates on the Re
publican side cannot fail to note the
eagerness with which the Boston
Transcript and other New England
journals seize upon the fact that the
Hon. George B. Cortelyou Is regu-
lar and discriminating consumer of
pie at luncheon. Since the publica-
ton of details concerning the lead
ing factors in Mr.. cortelyou's mid
day repast, the press Of New Eng
land has been teeming with COM
ment upon the psychological and po-
litical questions involved. Some Of
the Yankee papers insinuate that
the publication of the Cortelyou
luncheon menu meant the launching
of the Cortelyou presidential boom.
while others think the revelation of
Mr.. Cortelyou's pie-eating proclivi-
ties makes him, ipso facto and par
excellence, the New England candi-
date. From either point of view
the pie discovery assumes political
Importance.
"There may be much in tnis APP

Boston Transcript, with typical con-
servatism. Much? Decidedly much,
when the truth is grasped that it is
mince pie that attracts the secretary
of the treasury. From an apparent

sumes aspects extremely complicat-
ed, obscure and potential. The Bos-
ton paper does not fail to note that
Mr.. Cortelyou was a New Highlander
in the most plastic period of his
life, where he absorbed not only pie
itself, but the history and influence
of pie IN character molding and ma
ton building. The clam pie Of Mar
blehead, that great breakfast food
that has made its survivors indie
