PRACTICAL PREACHERS.

A Congregational minister in a let
ter to the Outlook" advances a very
plausible argument for the training of
theological students intending to en-
ter the ministry, in order that they
may be turned out ready to grapple
with real conditions. He very fitting-
" compares the preacher to a physi-
elan and says that Just as the medical
student has his clinic so the preacher
must have his special training. And
viewed from the point OF view that
the preacher L. to the human soul
what the physician is to the human
body. his analogy has some weight.
"The prospective minister must
know not only what the perfect Man
II; hs must be equally familiar with
imperfection. The time is past when
q minister can afford to ignore the
physical limitations OF the man he is
trying to help toward a better charac-
ter. He must take into account the
imperfect conditions of heredity and
environment to which the individual
has been subjected. He must consid-
er the effect upon character of bad
air, insufficient food or clothing, ar
rested development, deformity, dis
ease, lack of exercise. intemperance-
in the broadest sense, the use of stim-
plants and narcotics. It is simply
nonsense to say that a man who lives
under the above conditions is to be
dealt with in precisely the same way
Us one who has a more perfect set of
conditions about him.
1t is well to pause and reflect. Why
should not the preacher before he en-
ters into his life work have as thor
ough an understanding of the condi-
tions which make for sin just as the
doctor knows and must know the caus-
es OF disease? Disease is disease
whether it be physical or moral. To

CHAPTER V.

IN after years Philip never forgot
the shame Of that march through
the staring streets. The everlast-
Il ing idlers of London's busiest thor
oughfares gathered around the police
man and his prisoner with grinning
callousness
"Wot's e bin a-doin' of?''
"Nicked lydy's purse, eh?"
"Naw! Bin ticklin' the till, more
ike"
"Bli-me, don't e look sick,"
They ran and buZZed around him
like wasps, stinging most bitterly with
coarse words and coarser laughter. An
omnibus slowed its pace to let them
cross the road, and Philip knew that
the people on top craned their necks tc
have a good look at him. When near
ing the viaduct steps. the policeman
growled something at the pursuing
crowd. Another constable strobe rap

loafers, sternly advising them to find

Some constables lounging about the

The inspector was staggered by this

ing for some crushing legal threat that
would frighten the boy into state OF
due humility when Mr.. Isaacstein ell
tered.
The Hatton Garden magnate again
, related the circumstances attending
Philips arrest, and the inspector
promptly asked:
What charge shall / enter? You
gave him into custody. DO you think
he has stolen the diamonds:"
! Isaacstein had been thinking hard
during a short cab drive. His reply
was unexpectedly frank.
"He could not nave stolen what ney-
er existed. There is no such known

The special elections held to AL va
cancies in the legislature are signifi-
cant in the light they shed on the
struggle between the friends and foes
Of temperance in Indiana. The brew
cry and distilling interests are using
every means in their power to control
the legislature and their support falls
naturally in the democratic column.
The narrow margin Of 272 votes was
all that saved Cowing up at Muncie
in his fight against the saloon forces.
This is only sample of what is 60
Ing on all over the state and sample
of what the ticket will have to face at
the polls in November. The brewing
interests are fighting for their lives.
The proof of what We say is the fact
that the red light district of Muncie
went heavily, three to one, against
Cowing. What is the answer to this ?
1t means that the better class of citi-
Zens in Indiana, those who respect
and want better state of affairs must
band together to fight the liquor in
terests.
The saloon interests in politics al
ways mean corruption. They feed on
graft and special privileges and law
evasion. 1t is not only a question of
county local option; it is a question
of good government.

THE HEROES OF PEACE.

The sad accident which happened in
the trial of the Wright machine is in
dicative of the great perils which aer-
ial navigation presents. The Wright
machine is probably the most perfect
Of the heavier than air machines
which have yet appeared. But the very
problem of weight is still present. The
strength Of working parts OF the ma
chine have had to be sacrificed to
lightness. Therefore there will have
to be many experiments before sta
BILE machine with the required light
ness is attained. The loss of life
which occurred in the Wright tests is
only the first of many perhaps which
will have to be sacrificed. Many have
already been killed-Lowenthal was
not the first-they go as far back as
the time when Icarus sailed too close
to the sun.
In great discoveries human life has
had to be sacrificed before maximum
of perfection is attained. This is true
whether it be the discovery of the mos
quito theory of malarial and yellow fe-
yer incubation or in the exploration
of the far north. The discovery and
development OF any new continent
(witness the early history of North
America is analogous to what must
go on In the line OF the, aerial prob
lem.
All the innocent bystander can do is
to hope that the accidents will be few
The great achievements of Lasalle
were not minimized by his death in
his undertaking, and the western
trails are full of bones OF dead men.

things for the betterment of the hu-
man race are the heroes of peace

What a Ton Of.Gold is Worth.

morning at the top of the sixth column
was dispatch from Helena, Mont, az
-naIscing the discovery OF ore (gold,
supposed so per cent pure worth $780,
100000 ton. Now, gold is worth $40
q troy ounce. Its coinage value is
$40 67. A pound avoirdupois equals
ounces avoirdupois but only IA 7-12
ounces troy, the latter ounce being a
little heavier than the former. A ton
of pure gold $1,000 pounds avoirdupois
or 29, 1876 ounces troy is worth littl
over $5S3,O0O. A ton of ore so per
cent pure would be worth little over
$466,OOO. This s3O,0OO,OO0 is nearly 20
times too much. Does the mine yield
radium?
This recalls a wild rumor that got
into circulation during the Boer war
that President Kruger had left, TAX
ing with him over million sterling

Women Who Wear Well.

It Is astonishing how great change q

tho appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from q
peach which is rudcly handled. Tho
matron is only n dim shadow, a faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with me-
rage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
OF its freshness and the form Of its
fairness.
