CREMATION.
There has been a society organized here
for ‘tllept'trpOSO‘Of doing away with burying
the..l.d§ti'd—'burning the body instead. The
members pledge themselves to be burned as
'fast as they die, and, as if to show the world;
the value of the idea, One'inember died last
Friday and was burned- The coffin, we are
told was placed in an upright position inside
a tire-prodf'i'ec‘ep'tfaclc', throngh which artifi-
eiall y heatedfair was forced in acurrent, car-
ryiiigall the noxiousigases tip achimney,
andlea‘v’ing after the process a small residue
of snow-white ashes only. The precess was
completed in twenty minutes, at a cost for
fuel Of B2325 Thei'asbes weie-gathered and,
placed Cin‘aii m'n iu‘the‘ parlor of the father
of thejdeceased. .Those who‘are urging it
say that the cost of disposing of remains is
brought-to a very small point; that theidea
of consuming a body by fire is not so repug-
nant as .to put it into the ground ted-:cay ;,
and that as cemeteries are certain to be
crowded, cremutionis; butter :0“ sanitary

to the thief. They have a common interest

suspected people. For instance, if a bank
officer or merchant suspects ancmployc of
appropriating money, a detective is put upon
his track. Whereverhe’gwa fliers will be
behind him 31*génilériian y. moi-who, ever
loses sight of him. The numb‘e‘r of times he
goes into drinking places—the very liquor
he drinks, the kind of money he pays for it,
the gambling places he goes into, and the
houses of ill-fame he visits—all these are re-
corded, and so recorded that it can all be
brought home to him. They never know
they are being followed, for the detective is
too adroit for that. The result of his obser-
vations are given every morning to his em-
ployers, who have no difliculty in coming to.
Very accurate conclusions»! If the suspected
man has :1 Salary 'of $5,000persannhmhand'
no other'resources, find if he" is living at‘ther'
rate of $10,000, they have no difficulty in
coming to the conclusion that he is stealing
from them $5,000 per year. And then, just
when he fancies he is-all secure, he is taken
to task. ‘He‘ of course dt‘mies‘the charges;

" This is the"tOurte'cn‘thFanuivcrsary of the
Duriiig'iji‘irtedn years this Society has in-
vited this community to. come together,
from year togyear, to consider what. the
wants of ohif'iie‘bple are; what has been ac-‘
towns may take agreater interest in the
circulation of the Word of God.
Itini_ay;bermbst of those'ihere present have
hardly thought 'of. this society since we
came together a year ago in the First Bap“
tistehtirch. 'Its name may not have been
mentioned in the presence of but a few.
From the pulpits ofour churches no notices
of its meétiugsmay‘lla‘ve been given. Our'
churches may have passed'no vote in regard
to it. And yet, is this organization accom-
plisliingjnothing? Has eit no life or vitali-
ty? I-las it‘no mission except to come be-
fore our local churches oncera year and
make aipllblicxlisplay, take up a collection,
and then become inactive,—doing nothing
more till the year comes round again? Or,
if it been 'm'ission high and noble, which is
nothing less than the salvation of man, is
it doing anything to accomplish it so that'
this Society can properly ask for the sym-
pathy and co-operation of all true hearted
Christian: men ‘2‘ Of course its object is to,
distribute! the3Bible in this and'the adjacent
towns, among 'the rich and the poor, among
Catholic, and Protestant, to put it into the
handféipfi every one; who.will receive it.
“No thoughtful, right-minded man will say
Word of God. This is a common remark.
We all profess to believe this staetment.
But what,.do_ these words mean? They
mean that God, to whom we are all account-
able for'wh'at we do, and mor.e particularly,
AS I sometimes think, for what we fail to do,
g-Our Heavenly,Fatber, the Unseen One, who
'knows all about our thoughts and ways,
and all about our needs and necessities, has
seen fit to reveal himself to usin a book
we calltlte Bible, .- This .book has been in:‘
str'umental in impartinglifc in all its full-
ness and joy'to very many. Persons who
,read it for the information and beauty it
contains find very much in it to admire, and
"otheil bOOk in their library than‘this. "Those "
who haveoffoundiin it..what it was chiefly
given to impart, the way of life and truth
- ~b" fore-they wOUId part with it.
But the Bible is as important to the com-‘
munity at large, as it is to the individual.

‘iiir without oxygen. If not in a condition
of death, they are in a condition akin to it.

see and handle,‘what we can only gather by
the deductions of reason and instinct, are
the most potent: of all agencies. Who
knows how dependent we are for all the
,hgalthful conditions of life upon the-light,
the air and electricity? So the influence of
the Bible, whose foot-fall is not heard on
our pavements, so quiet and-.noiseless,_ is,
yet potent and sublime, and reaches into
eternity. _' i. ...
But isthis Society distributing this'gOo'd”
book or doing anything to keep alive an in-
terest in it? Perhaps-net all that it should
do, but it is dOIUg a good deal. The
churches acting with this organization in
Westport, Wilton, Darien and Norwalkhare
expeétcd from year to year to choose a oom-
mittee of twO;ivho, with the pastor of the
church, shall have the management of this
Society. Many. of these churches ’_ have
failed during the past year to appoint anew
such committee, and the Old committee
holding over both the churches and com-
mittee have taken less interest in our cause
than they would have. done had there been
a new one appointed.
It is hoped in the future that this will be
corrected, and an appointment made by the
churches associated together, each year.
But notwithstanding this, the committee
having charge of the affairs of the Society
has niet' from time to' time at the residence
of the President, Dr. Asa. llill;and each
town, if not each church,‘,has been repre-
sented. The good work has been discussed.
Plans of operation have been debated, and
the standingcommittee, after consulting
with theinmrespective Churches, have been
more and. more convinced of the great im-
portance blibhaving themerits of the Bible,
that mostgxfiitflfndert‘ul ‘of all books, brought
afresh, from time to time, before the minds
of the people. Having this in view, he-

Young Sprigglu and his Armenia Jane
had just been married, and were going upon
heir bridal tour. They didn’tknow wheth-
er, upon their return, they should board
H
the old folks” or take rooms at a private
hotel. Being onlya clerk, Spriggles’ means
were limited, and he could not expect much
at first in the- way of living.
“ Of course,” he laid to old Bolger, a
wealthy member of the firm,wh0 had kindly
granted him three weeks' leave of absence,
we must be in style, you know. I Inp-
pose you took a rushcr when you were mar-
tied."
" A rusher?”
“ I mean you took an extensive one, and
showed your wife the sights."
“ Yes,” said Bolger, with a nod. “ I’ll
tell you about it. I made long preparations
for my biidal tour, and the girl that was to
become my wife helped me. We had it all
fixed, and everything laid out beforehand.
I‘worked for it hard, and she worked for it
too. It was to be the grand event of our
lives, and we wanted it to be asuccess. We
felt that as tbe'new life Opened so should it
continue. I was earning five hundred dol
lars a year. That was good pay for a sales-
man five-and-thirty years ago—better than
three times that amount now as things go.
We were married in the morning at the
house of my wife’s father. Then we rode
two miles to the substantial cottage 1 had
secured for a home. My money had made
the first payment on it, and Mary’s money
had furnished three rooms in it. ,
“And we ate our first meal thereafter in
our own liouse;and I went thence to my
work and my wife set about her work. It
was the new life and we determined to sue-
ceed if possible. ”And in that effort was our
joy. And in the success that followed was
unalloyed happiness. In less thah three
years my house was paid for and my home
was my own. Come storm or come sun-
shine, we bad a roof to cover us—a root
from which the hand of man could not turn
us.
“ I doubt, young man, if ever a bridal
tour was happier or more profitable than
was mine; and lknew the exercise ofiiouse-
crating and healthful. But then we married
for real earnest living and loving. We be-
lieve we should find life’s purest joy in the
discharge of life's sacred duties.
“I declare," pursued the old man, with a
glistening moisture in his eye. “I should
like those first blessed days of home life to
live over again. But it may not be. And,”
he added, “ I fear the young men of~tlie pre-
sent day will not live them for my view-
ing." .
Spriggles- walked away scratching his
head. He wasn’t sure that he had caught
the drift of the old man’s remarks.

The noullh ofli'onlieu.
Farmers have unequaled natural advan-
tages for health, strength and longevity.
The statistics of diseases and the tables of
mortality, however, are against them.
This is due not to their ’vo'cation, but to
their misuses of it. No class, as a whole, is
probably so utterly reckless ofbealth condi-
tions. So far as our acquaintance with the
habits of farmers is concerned—and it has
,becn extensive—it compels the conclusion,
as a rule, that the dietie habits of farmers
are worse than those of any other class
.who have the means of choosing for them-
selves. Fricd dishes several times a day,
with several fried articles at each of the
meals, is one of their common abominations;
dried beef, and old cheese and pickles {are
among the common relishes, while lard and
saleratuc make their richer dainties infec-
tions and caustic. We have seen on a
farmer’s table fried pork, fried eggs, fried
potatoes and fried griddle cakes for break~
fast; fried ham, fried hominy and fried pars-
nip: for dinner;’and fried sausages and
fried doughnuts for supper—all the frying
done in lard. N 0 class is so troubled with
7
tumors as farmersmnd the excessive use
of pork, lard, fine flour, rich cakes and
greasy pastry are enough to account for it.
In dietie habits our farmers are sadly mis-
led by the agricultural journals, nearly all
of which pander to their prejudices, and
flatter their morbid appetites by recom-
mending and commending swine breeding
and pork eating, while they fill their kitchen
column with receipts for making “rich and
palatable" puddings, pics, cakes and other
complicated dishes, which no stomach ever
carried inside a human body could long
tolerate without death or dyspepsia. The
essential need of our farmers is plain,
wholesome food, properly cooked. This
would give" them much more available
strength for work, relieve them of many of
the distresses and expenses of sickness, add
many years to their lives, and render ;old
age f‘green” and normal, instead of dry and
decrepit, as it is in most of cases under ex
isting habits,
Clara Loni-e Kellogg.
The following comes from a very grace-
fully written sketch of the great American
prima donna, from the pen of Lucy Hamil-
- ton Hooper: “ A singular and mournful lit-
tle romance is connected with the earlier
portion of the fair singer’s career. During
the last year of the war, and'after one of the
last great battles, the chaplain of one of the
Massachusetts regiments was engaged in
rendering the last services to the dying,
when he came across a young lieutenant ly-
ing by the rpadsidemnd evidently desper-
ately wounded. The chaplain proposeddo
summon medical aid,hut the young man
and that he preferred to be left to pass away
without further suffering. Atler doing what
he could to make the sufferer more comfort-
able in his last moments, the chaplain asked
the dying man if he wished to send any
messages to his relatives and friends. “No,
he had neither—he was alone in the world.”
“ Was there no one” persisted the chaplain,
“ to whom be would like to sends word of
farewell 1’” “ Yes” he answered, “ there is
one—Miss Clara Louise Kellogg,.theprima
donna. She does not know me, nor have I
ever met her Or seen her off the stage.- But
she is the one—the only—woman that I ever
loved. I saw her in opera repeatedly when
I was last in Boston, and the effect she pro-
duced on me wasintan‘t'sneousand inefi‘ace-
able. And I should die happier did I know
that she would one 'day learn that I had
once existed, and that I loved her.” A few
brief lines were penciled by the falling hand
on. a leaf of the chaplain’s note-book, a sin-
gle dark curl'was severed fromthe locks al~
ready growing (lamp with the dews of
death, a word or two of thanks were faintly ‘
spoken, and then the dim eyes closed, and
the brief romance and the young soldier
had ended together.. In due course of time
the letter and the lock of hair were placed
in Miss Kellogg’s bands, and if the spirit of
the sender, at the moment of receiving them,
was hovering near, he had at least the joy
of knowing that, though unknown to his
fair lady-love, he had not died unwept by
her. ‘

A farmer reading a journal to his wife in
which was the sentence: “ The President
was received with three huzzas,” pronounc-
ed the last word “ bussies." “more shame
or him,” exclaimed the indignant and scan-
dalized lady. »
A few evenings ago a certain young man
went to spend the eveningwith his atlianced.
During the eveninghe told a few stories and
called them tales. The lady reproved him
and told him he should say “ anecdotes.”
After a short time he went to see his horse.
When he returned she asked him how his
horse was getting along. “ 0h,” he said,
‘ he’s all right, only the calves have chewed
off his anecdote.”
