Criticising the Theologians.
HENRY WARD BEECHER ILLUSTRATEB HIS TEXT
WITH AN EXPERIENCE 0E ms BOYIIOOD, ‘
“Throughout the teachings of our Lor ,"
said Mr. Beecher Sunday, “we find the char-
acter of God set forth to us that of a father
and our relations to him not that of citi-
zens or subjects, but that of children. Now,
did not the desire get into theologians when
they tried to-‘express God’s parents! love for
his own honor and glory? Parental love
when expressed from the standpoint of
the household is tlle most lovable thing in
the world. but from a dynastic standpoint it
is one of the crossest, ugliest. most hideous
things in the whole world. We are the sons
of God. What is there which can better ex-
press our dependence and relations to Him?
Whatever the child needs it runs .for
to its parents. One reason why men do
not love God is that He has been presented
to them so often as an object of fear. They
have heard of Him as abhorring sin and
sinners. I think very well of government. I
think very well of my old schoolmaster, but
I nev liked the rattan nor the ruler, and if
my sc oolmaster had been presented to me
all my life with a rattan in his hand I should
not have felt attracted to him. The idea
presented of God is that He is a God of
,justicc. “The soul that sinneth shall die.
It doesn't die, it never did die, and never
will; that is a falsehood to begin with;
but the theologians got around that state-
ment by saying that one God got another
God to die for all sinners. The view of God
to a large extent has been on the side of ter-
ror or fear. Certainly no man was ever
brought up in a household that had character
in it more than I, but I never, never, never
dared to look up to God and trust Him.
My God in those days always had a rattan in
his hand; he was my schoolmaster. I was
told if I could only get in with Jesus
Christ—but I could not get in; if I‘could
only lay down my Weapons of rebellion—I
didn’t have any weapons of rebellion to lay
down. And all this time God was love, and
Idid not know it. I could not take any
peace in Him. Shall I ever forget the spring
morning when the graves of the Bible gave
forth their dead, and Jesus came out of the
sepulchre to interpret to me that God was
love? I said, ‘If that is God, be is my God
forever,’ and He has been and shall be while
I have a being. I‘can love, love, but I can't
love hate.”

Good enough Weather.
“If along season of inclement weather is
not sufficient excuse for my failing to plant
more than four Sunday schools during the
past month, then I can offer no other,"-
writes a Southern missionary of the Ameri-
can Sunday School Unio'n. “No complaints,
however, about the weather," he adds, “for I
shall uots oon forgot a little rebuke I received
a short time ago, while stopping to warm
and take shelter from a storm in a freedman’s
humble home. '
"What a dreadful day this is,” escaped
my lips, as I greeted old Aunt J udy, on
entering her cabin door. ‘Bress de Lord,
honey,’ said she, ‘don't ebery ting come from
de Lord? Den if ye is a Criston, dc weddcr
is good ’nuff for yo, and if ye ain’t no Criston
de wedder is more’n too good for ye.’ The
harder it rained the louder did Aunt Judy
sing ‘Tank de Lord for ebery ting.‘ J,
“After awhile the storm ceased, and with
thanks for her kindness, I put a few dimes
into the band of the pious old woman to help
her get a pair of winter shoes. ‘Good-bye,
Aunt Judy, your short sermon is well worth
a colleétion.’ Soon the cabin door was out
of sight, but my pathway seemed to grow
brighter and ‘de wedder’ has been ‘good nuff’
ever since.
The balance of Power.
In a recent interview about the colored
men Colonel Bob Ingersoll says : _“Thcy
prefer to live where their ancestors were
slaves, where their fathers and mothers were
sold and whipped; and I don’t believe it will
be possible to induce the majority of them to
leave the land. Of course thousands may
leave, and, in the process of time, millions
may go, but I don't believe emigration will
ever equal their natural increase. Al the'
whites of the South beCome civilized, the
reason for going will be less and less. I see
no reason why the white and black man
cannot live together in the same land, under
the same flag: The beauty of liberty, is,
you cannot have it unless you give it away,
and the more you give it away the more you
have. I know my liberty is secure only
because others are frog. I am perfectly
willing to live in a country with such men
as Frederick Douglass and Senator Bruce. I
have always preferred a good, clever black
man, and I am of the opinion that I shall
continue in that preference. Now, if we
could only haves colonization bill that would
get rid of all the rowdies, all the rascals, and
't Iwould like to-sc’e it carried out“ ,

In the “Memoirs of Count chur" there is
the following anecdote: ‘
“My mother, the Countess dc Segur, being
asked by Voltaire respecting her health.
told ,him that the most painful feeling she
had arose from the decay of her stomach,
and the difficulty of finding any kind of all-
ment that it. could bear. Voltaire, by way
of consolation, assured her that he was once
for nearly a year in the same state, and
believed to be incurable. but that, neverthe-
less, a very simple remedy had restored him.
It consisted in taking no other nourishment
than yolks of eggs beaten up with flour or
- potatoes and water.” Though this circum-
stance tobk place as far back as fifty years
ago, and respected so extraordinary a person
as Voltaire, it is astonishing how little it is
known, and how rarely the remedy has been
practised. Its efficacy, however, in cases of
debility, cannot be questioned, and the fol-
lowing is thcmode of preparing this valur.
ble article of food as recommended by Sir
John Sinclair: Beat up an egg in a bowl and
then add six tablcspoonfuls of cold water,
mixing the whole well together, then add
two tablespoonfuls of farina of potatoes; let
it be mixed thoroughly with the liquor in
the bowl. Then pour in as much boiling
water as will convert the whole alone or with
the addition of a little {milk in case of stom-
ache debility or consumptive disorders. Thll
dish is light and easily digested, extremely
wholesome and nourishing. Bread orblscult
may be taken with it as the stomach gets
stronger.

DON’T STAY LATE TO-NIGHT
__ .
The hearth of home is beaming
With rays of rosy light,
And lovely eyes are gleaming,
As fall the shades of night;
And while thy steps are leaving
The circle pure and bright,
A tender voice half grieving
Says, "Don't stay late to-night.”
The world in which thou movcst
Is busy, brave and wide ;
The world of her thou lovest
Is at the logic Sldc.
She waits for the warm greeting,
Thy smile is her delight;
Her gentle voice entreating
Says, “Don’t stay late tonight.
The world, so cold, inhuman,
Will spurn thee if thou fall ;
The love of one' true woman
Outlasts and shamcs them all.
They children will cling round thee
Let fate be dark or bright.
At home no shaft will wound thee,
Then “Don’t stay late to-night.”

The average salary of the 450 ministers
serving Congregational churches in Massa-
chusetts is $981. The average salary in the
298 parishes in Connecticut is somewhat
over one thousand dollars. This is thought
to be larger than in any state, and the
tendency here is toward an increase. But,
the support in the United States of the whole
clergy of all denominations is said to cost
annually $6,000,000, while the tobacco used
in the United States cost over $600,000,000-
The United States spends a hundred times as
much for tobacco as for clergy.

It is stated that during the year of famine
in Ireland, ihe people there consumed over
$50,000,000 in whiskey. In view of this
fact the National Baptist says: "It is not
the landlords or the land laws that keeps Ire-
land down, it is whisky, ignorance, and au-
perstition.”

Tax~Payers —Wake Up 1
To the fact that a large part of. taxes goes
to defray expenses that should be met by
others—under the dollars from the drinker
which should have brought food and clothes _
for him, and Without which he has to go
"over thc'hills to the poor house,” to be kept
by you—when sick, the doctor’s bill is paid
by you, when dead, the undertaker is paid
by you, or if his reason is taken before death,
he is taken to the asylum built by you, his
care: paid for while there by you, or if, as it
often is, while under the excitement or drink
he committs crime, for his arrest and trial
you are made to foot the bill, while you and
others are compelled to leave your homes
and work to sit upon the poor fellow’s case
at trial and pay your own expenses. And
what is all this for; that a few persons may
get their living without the hard work that
you have. _ They sell their two cent’s worth
of rum for ten cents, or what costs them two
dollars they sell for ten dollars. Your corn
that you sell for fifty cents a bushel cost you
-—-ought you to bear the expense of keeping
and caring for the drunkard after he is
500 per get. while you only get ten per
cent. profit on your produce? Now this is
one of the things to think about until next
election. Consider whether this is right and
‘if wrong, what is the remedy? .
Then if you choose you may take upa
worse phase of this subject; try to figure
up, if you can, what the brutality and devil-
try of the man costs his family and friends
while he is on his way to your poor house,
and you will find they have a harder row to
hoe yet than you have. Tax-payers, wil
you remedy this state of things? or will you
sweat under the load, and while doing it,
cause others to suffer still more than your-
selves ? - .
Tm: INFLUENCE or W mum—No influence
in promoting moral and social reforms at the
present day is greater than that of woman.
In the temperance reform her influence has
been powerfully felt. Prof. Tyler says :
Gentle manners come from the gentle sex.
Pure morals from purity and propriety in
woman. She is the atmosphere with which,
public sentiment rises or sinks, like the
barometer, and the very element in which
public morals live and move and have their
being. If women were only sufficiently en-
lightened, united and decided; if women
would always frown upon those habits of
eating, drinking and smoking, which lead to
intemperance and minister to licentiousness;
if women would never walk or ride with a
smoke-stack, or keep company with a beer-
barrel or a bottle of champaignc—I repeat it,
if women were only sufficiently enlightened,
united, and decided never to smile, but al-
ways to frown on these and similar habits,
from which they themselves are the greatest
sufferers—they would soon be banished from
.dllzidecent society—they would vanish away
.__.,_._..___
Home Atmosphere.
Nobody must be morally the worse for
living ’under our roof, if we can possibly
help it. It is the minimum ~of our duties to
make sure that temptations to misconduct
or intempera'n'ce are not left in any oue’s
habits of moroseuess or domineering formed
or quarrels kept hot as if they were toasts
before the kitchen fire. As much as possi-
ble, ‘on the contrary, everybody must be
helped to be better, not made better by set
of the drawing-room. remember; that is im-
possible, but helped to be better. The way
to do this is not to scold or exhort, but
rather to spread through the house such an
atmosphere of frank confidence and kindli-
ness with servants, and of love and trust
with children and relations, that bad feeling
and doings will really have no place, no
temptation, and if they intrude, will 'soon
die out. .

Gambling- Hells Afloat.
’St. Louis Republican.
The gamblers are already planning to cir-
cumvent the law justadopted by the Missouri
legislature making gambling a felony. The
law, they say, does not reach the middle of
the river. It has been suggested that a pool
be made up and a boat chartered for short
trips up and down the river, to leave every
night and return by morning. As soon as
the boat would get away from the levee faro,
keno and roulette tables wordd be brought
out, and the night spent in gambling. Pas.
sengers would be charged, say. 31, a part of
which would be returned in checks that
would be good at the gambling tables. There
would be a bar and restaurant on board. and
everything to make things comfortable!
Some of the biggest gamblers in: town have
been talking about the ,mattcr. Something
will be done, ’and just now this seems to be
the only thing to do. If one of these boats
should be rigged up, it may give a start to
river gambling again. At present all the
regular boats on the river have very strict
rules about gambling; but if it were profit-
able boats could be easily found to go into it.

If a person of fair complexion exposes
himself to the electric light for some time in
examining the action of lamps the hands and
checks will show all the symptoms of
“sunburn,” even in mid-winter, and he will
develop freckles on his countenance as quick-
1y as when he goes about unprotected by a
sun umbrella in midsummer.

boy, “If a carpenter wants to cover a root

“Where are you going 2” asked the'teacher.

M. Trecul hasydescrlbed'a mmgghnblc phe-
nomenon, of the nature of ,flohglggg__llght-
ning,observ_cd by him during a thunderstorm
last August. A very bright ball, somewhat
elongated, passed out of a dark cloud ‘ and
into it at another place; but. just before
disappearing, it gave off a little of. its sub-
stance, which fell vertically, like a body
having weight. The falling body, which
left a luminous track, divided, and was ex-
tinguished a little above the tops of the
houses.
M. Treve recently made the singular ob-
servation that the flame of the lamp appears
brighter, and that a vertical shaft, a post, or
mist is seen more distinctly through a vefti—
on! than throughajhorizontal slit; while a
house, a landscape or the disc of the sun or
moon is perceived-idiom. clearly through a
horizontal slit. He findsi'similar differences
in photographs according lasfthe light passes
from the object to the plate through a verti-

to the action of diffused light. ‘
It has been proven by experiment that the
tarring of ropes slightly diminishes their
tenacity against a pullinggstrain,‘but preserves
in them a high. average of tenacity much
longer than in the untarred ones, on account
of. the protection the tar affords against‘
the destructive action of the air and mois-

If caught in the track of a sun tempest a

Some interesting statements concerning
early dentistry have been lately made in a
discussion in the British Medical Journal.
Sir Gardiner Wilkinson declares that teeth
stopped with gold have been found in Egyp-
tian mummies-a thing which others pro-
nounce impossible. ‘ Dr. John Gaigor aflirms
that he has seen in several museums teeth
bound together in skulls of ancient date by
threads of gold twisted around them. An-
other gentleman‘ once saw in a Liverpool
museum the jawbone of a mummified Egyp-
tian in which.a number of teeth were se-
cured‘by gold wire. These" statements seem
to show the cxistcncc'of some sortof dentist-
ry at a very early date. The art: of binding
teeth together was, it is claimed, practiced
by the Hiudoos about six hundred years

gBy means of the “detective camcra”—a
new feat in photography—photographs may
be taken in the street, or in any other place,
without the knowledge of the individuals
being photographed. The apparatus appears
externally like a book or small box.
The museum at Boolak, in Egypt,contains
what has been called “the oldest picture in
the world”—a fresco from a tomb at May-
doom, representing six geese.
The desert interior of Australia probably
affords the hottest climate in the world. A
thermometer graduated to 127 degrees Fahr.
was hung in a shaded place, and the heat be-
came so great as to cause the expansion of
the mercury to burst the tube—indicating a
temperature of not less than 128 degrees in
the shade.
Two naturalists have found that the trunks
of trees undergo daily changes in diameter. -
From Early morning to early afternoon there
is a regular diminution, followed until twi-
light by an increase. This is repeated at
night.
Some of the remedies adopted by modern
medical science are peculiar. Fuchsine—a
bright aniline dye—was, not long since, rec-
ommended in Bright’s disease, and now the
use of nitro-glycerine in minute doses is ad-
vised for certain chest affections.
The following curious optical illusion has
been described by Dr. Candeze, of Liege.
Take a sheet of paper eight or ten inches in
length, and having rolled it into a tube, ap-
ply it to the right eye with the left hand.
Keep both eyes open, and look at an object a
few yards off, say a small statuette. It will
appear that the right eye, imprisoned by the
paper tube, does not see the object; but that
the left eye alone perceives it, and seems to
distinguish it through an orifice open in the
left hand. The left hand holding the cylin-
der appears very distinctly perforated. An—
other very interesting experiment consists in .
holding the paper tube in the right hand,
and applying with the left to its exterior sur-
face a small square of paper, in the middle
of which is drawn a dark circle; the latter
will have the appearance of being suspended
interiorily in the center of the cylinder.

The Power of a. Snow Drift.
Appleton Post. .
The Northwestern railway company has
spent over three hundred thousand dollars in
the fight against snow since October last.
Thirty-four immense snow ploughs have had
plenty of work,-and these have been backed
up tremendously by from two to six locomo-
tives each. The might of these ploughs and
the great power of a snowdrift may be esti~
mated from the facts that one plough weigh-
ing 48.000 pounds,ballasted by 80,000 pounds
of railroad iron and driven by six locomo-
tives, attacked a snow-choked cutting, but
was defeated. The drift» was 52 feet high.
‘When the workmen, after the tremendous
charge, caught a glimpse of the immense
plough, they found that it, with all its 128,
000 pounds. had been repelled as if it were a
feather, and that it had rolled disconsolately'
over the drift and had lodged against some
forest trees, where it. proposes to remain
until summer. From one cut 324,000 cubic
yards of snow were taken, but in eight hours
llle wind had piled it up full again. Nine
thousand men have been employed from time
to time during the winter as shovellers.

Three recipes to cure cor-us.
1. Bathe the corn with strong borax water
then shave it closely, but be careful and do
not make it bleed. Place over the com a
white felt corn plaster, and wear it constantly
until the corn has disappeared. Ever night
and morning wet the small cavity over the
corn (and the plaster) with a little borax
water, or, if preferable, the pulp of a lemon.
The corn plaster can be obtained at any
druggisls’s. Keep the feet clean by frequent
ablutions with warm water, and wear easy,
soft boots or- shoes., Without the latter
precaution, corns will generally return even
after they appear to h‘ave been perfectly
removed. 3 After soaking the feet in warm
water fora few minutes pare the, cornas
close as possible with a sharp knife, taking
care not to make them bleed. Place upon
the part affected a small, circular piece of
leather or buckskin, spread with some
emollient plaster and having ahole in the
centre corresponding to the size of the cams.
They may now be touched with nitric acid,
by means of a small glass rod or wood
toothpick, due care being taken not to allow
the liquid to come in contact with the
neighboring parts. Repeat this process daily
until the offender be sufficiently softened to '
admit of removal.
