Gods Presence in All Events.

The providence of God is "a very
comforting doctrine to the believer.
He guides with His eye and holds IN
His hand the destinies OF men and or
nations; and His people have the
comfortable assurance in The words
OF prophecy and in the examples or
history that the eyes OF thG Lord run
to and fro throughout the whole
earth, to show Himself strong in their
behalf.
His eye directs His hand and the
arm OF His power. He governs the
world In unerring wisdom anu for
the good OF His people. He doeth
all in pursuance of the coun5els
OF His love concerning their sal
vation. Hence, they have all the rea-
son in the world for trusting in Him
and depending on Him, since wisdom
and might are His. Therefore, In
stead OF all this worry, this self-plan-
ming and sef-seeking, why not let
God into our plans and take counsel
OF Him2
He will keep and mould our lives.
His providence will end to the per-
fecting of our being according to
some one Of His standards of infinite
beauty, ii only We w hot, III VuA
self-will. disturb the process. Every
movement, every event, every trial
He will work into the marvellous har-
mony, so that by and by we may be
gems Of His crown of glory. IL we.
in our short-sightedness, cannot see
the end from the beginning, what
matters 1t SO long IS He sees it,
An affectionate. contding faitl in
God and His providence would save
us half the annoyances of life that
fret and worry us, for It would lift
us up above the reach of chem. The
promise to all of them that put their
trust in God Is, "they shall mount
up with wings as eagles; they shall
run and not be weary; they shall
walk and not faint. "-Christia In

Our Part and His.

Providence hath thousand keys
to open a thousand doors for the de-
liverance of His own when 1t has
come to the greatest extremity. Let
us be faithful and care for our own
part, which is to do and suffer for
Him. and lay Christ's part on Him
self, and leave IL there; duties are
ours. events are the Lords. When
our faith goeth TO meddle with events
and TO hold court (if | may so
speak, upon Gods providence, aud
beginneth to say. How wilt Thou do
this or that?" we lose ground-we
have no hing TO do there; IL Is our
part To let the Almighty exercise His
own Office and steer His own helm.-

REMscwABLE sAvAGEs.
From CarE<...lism to Citizenship in
Only Fifty Years.

The Maoris are in many respects
the most remarkable savages with
whom the white man has come in
contact.
Fifty years ago cannibalistic feasts,
at which the flesh Of their fallen en-
emies was served, were not uncon-
mon. To-day several members OF
their race are members of the New
Zealand Parliament anu Maori wom-
en-, as we'll as the white women OF
New Zealand. exercise the right TO
vote.
When the English first occupied
the islands, in the early part of the
nineteenth century, it is estimated
that there were about 100000 Ma
oris in New Zealand. They were di-
vided into tribes, each having its own
unwritten laws regarding land, culti-
vation and other social matters.
The English found that they had
a genius for war, showing unusual
ability in building, fortifying and de-
Tending stockades, and they expert
enced considerable difficulty in SUBJ
DUNG them.
The Maoris were also skilled in
several arts. They tilled the soil
with great care; as carvers and dec
orators they were unrivalled in the
execution OF rock paintings and in
carving the ornamental figures OF
their dwellings, their boats and
sacred enclosures.
But the Maoris were also noted
for their remarkable tattooing, which
was designed TO clothe as well as
decorate the body. The Maori artist
knew how to give endless variety to
the curves of his drawings; the nat
ural burrows, the movements of the
countenance, the play of muscles
everything was made to enhance the
charm OF the design; and a hale
young man certainly presented a fine
sight, draped only in this delicate
network Of blue lines on the ruddy
brown OF his skin.
Whoever refused to undergo the
protracted tortures of tattooing re-
quired at every important event OF
his life was regarded as a person by
his own consent foEedoomed to slav-
cry. The men were actually depilat-
ed in order to increase the surface
to be covered with ornamental tat
tooing. while for young women the
operation was limited to the lips,
whence the term blue lips applied to
them by the English.
There are about $4,000 Maoris
left. They have retired to the north
ern provinces of New Zealand, where
certain reservations have been set
apart as their exclusive property.
Schools have been establish ed
which the Maori children attend reg
ularly. 1t is said that such of them
as continue into the higher branches
OF learning are worthy rivals of white
students. Some of the Maoris have
become large landed proprietors;
they are proud of their right to vote;
and especially Of the fact that their
women obtained this privilege at the
same time that it was given to the
white women of New Zealand. in

A Man of Many Moods.

To get subscription from Stephen
Girard, founder of Girard College in
Philadelphia, was not an easy mat
ter. 1t required tact and the right
introduction. and many failed while
few succeeded. It is told, by the
author of The French Blood in
America" that Samuel Coates. a
genial Quaker, was one of the few
men who knew how to approach the
eccentric millionaire.
He was a manager Of the Pennsyl-
vania Hospital, and called on Girard
for the purpose Of raising money for
the support of that institution.
We'll, how much do you want,
Coates?" asked Girard, in his usual
brusque tones.
Just what thee pleases to give,
Stephen" replied the Quaker. Gil
rard wrote out a check for two thou
sand dollars, and handing it to Mr..
Coates. was surprised to see that
gentleman pocket it without looking
at the amount.
What! You don't look to see
how much I give you?" cried Girard
incredulously.
"Beggars must not be choosers,
Stephen" replied the Quaker.
Give me back my check and l
will change it," said Girard, after
a moments pause.
"A bird in the hand Is worth two
in the bush. thee knows, Stephen IS
mildly replied the Quaker. Without
another word Girard sat down and
wrote him out second check for
five thousand dollars.
His farm on the outskirts of Phila-
delphia was one of the best in the
country. and while living in town he
often drove out before breakfast TO
see that all was going well. He was
very exacting with his hired hands.
and never trusted the management
OF his farm TO any one else. but ran
IL himself. as he did all his affairs.
Arriving one morning a little earlier
than usual. he was greatly annoyed
at not finding his man at work on
fence that he was building. The
mans wife, noticing Girard APP
preaching the house, hurriedly
awoke her husband and sent him
10 his duties by way OF the back
door. After visiting the house Gil
rard returned to the fence. and see
ing the man at his post. reprimanded
him for being late.
I'D been here. sir. but went back
for a spsde.s said the workman.
NO. you hadn't. =. went and put
my hand IN your BED and found IL
warm.h replied Girard. and he dis
charged the man on the spot.

Hand That Receives Gods Gift.

II is very plain that what is now
most wanted in the Christian world
Is more faith. We too little respect

Keep Hoping Always.

We are saved by hope. Never man
hoped too much. The plague is that
we don't hope in God half enough.
Hope never hurt any one-never yet

duty. gives courage, and clears the
judgment. st. Paul says we are
saved by hope. Hope is the most ra-
tional thing in the uuiverse-George

STATE OUGHT by DR.. Andrew
TO RULE Christian, one of
MARRIAGES. the most promi-
nent physicians in
this city. Furthermore, the doctor
advised that there should be Gov
ernment control Of marriages, re-
quiring clean bill of health Of every
man and woman before they might
approach the altar.
The world would be better" said
DR.. Christian, "if mothers would con-
sent to have their deformed or men
tally deficient children quietly put to
sleep. If | myself had little child
born and it was deformed or showed
that it would be mentally weak l
would be willing that it should be
put to death with no suffering, and 1t
would be the prudent thing to do.
because it would save ii from untold
suffering later. This may seem
harsh, but it really isn't.
"A board of overseers of marriages
appointed by the State Is what we
want. The race is degenerating and
some radical change must be made
soon or we will in time have only
idiots and imbeciles. Just take, for
example, what Luther Burbank has
accomplished with the flowers. Even
more can be done with human beings
and greater results obtained.
"Only the fit should marry, only
those who are mentally and physical
ly normal and sane, those whose an
cestors were clean of life and well
balanced mentally. To be born un-
der right conditions with as nearly
perfect mother and father, mentally
and physically, as possible, is tie
heritage of every child, and the man
or woman who cheats child Of that
heritage is committing a double
crime, one against the child and one
against society.
The board Of overseers | suggest
should understand thoroughly physi-
ology, psychology and sociology. |
should think doctors, appointed by
the State, would be best. These
could have lists of people in that
State and so far as possible Of their
ancestry. They could fix period Of
time to look the individuals up be-
fore deciding whether two persons
were fit to marry"
