Church Courtesy.
BY LNKATI LUDLUM. '
[A 5friend (if mine from far back in the
country. visited me, not long ago; and of
course we went to church on Sunday. 0!!
our way home I asked -;her opinion of the
church and people, expecting an answer full
of admiration. to, say the least, for the church
was beautiful, for a country town ; cool
shadows, crimson carpets and cushions, high
7mm stained glass, crystal chandeliers
and an organ whose gilded pipes rOse to the
ceiling. The choir was a good one, the
.music grand—the fluttering fans—the rust-
ling silks and gsatins and velvets—the beauti-
ful fades—a minister considered one of the
best educated men of the day—the soft air
filled with the sweet fragrance that always
follows beautiful, fashionable, refined peo-
ple! What could my friend say against it-
she who had been accustomed to a simple
church and plain country people ?
“Yes, the church itself is very beautiful.”
shereplied, thoughtfully. “Dear friend, do.
not be angry with me—the lights and music,
the elegant toilets-and ‘Vperfume charm one’s‘
senses; but dear, there is a certain absence
of warmth and cordiality. The hearty hand-
'shelre.fthe kind :wishes and gentle words one
looks for in a church where most of the
congregation is acquainted—were not there!
In their": identifiers the'cool nod, or haughty
stsre rarity 'Onemon ~la lower level than
themselves; the stranger allowed to find a
seat for himself in the gallery, or be ushered
‘ to a seat it... he is met with supercilious
glances, and made to feel how utterly alone
one can be even in .the house of God, where
."all' ere-or lshould be—on equal, friendly
terms. fiHere and there, to be sure, were
faces where shone the light of love and good
willytda‘ll men, peer or rich, it made no
difference—but how, few they were! My
dear friend, your town church is beautiful-
, to-‘be. . .
“Would we have thought much of our
Saviour if He had'beenwilling to save only
the rich .’ If, instead of wearing the poorest
garments, 9nd living as the poorest of the
poor, He “had ‘riise'd purple robes from tbs
dust or drawn them aside from the
touch of some poor soul in rags—would we
have felt so‘sure of His sympathy i’ Were
not thepeordea‘r-éto 'Ei'm-?- Did He evcr
send one from His sight with harsh words or
haughty looks i’”
- "But,” I said, perplexed in spite of my-
self, “our rich people do do good—they give
moneyto the church and to missions ; they
build schools for - the poor- and furnish
teachers for them. It is only their way. ’_’
“ ‘Only their way' i” smiled my friend.
“Dss'rpif you were a poor girl, too proud to
go to ‘ but a refined church and shut out
from it y your poverty, would you be will-
ing to have the rich people build a place for
you, and such as you, to go to ? Would you
go! Would not you say that if they were
not “willing lto awciate with you, if you
could not be invited into their church and
treated as an equal child of God—then you
would not care for them, nor their religion ?
Oh, yes, the rich are willing enough to give
to the poor, but they must not touch them!
ffiionsble, but not what our Lord meant
For my part, I think the rich are greatly to_
blame for the ignorance and profanity of the
poorer classes. We are all possessed of
some pride-some more, some less, but we
all have some. I will take you to our church
next Sunday, and show you the other side.
Not but what there are some haughty, proud
people there, too, but the general rule is
God’s Golden Rule—‘Do unto others as you
would. that they should dq‘unto you.’ ” '
The next Sabbath found my friend and
myself seated in a small, square church, plain
and old and ’gray. but‘with the walls covered
with hardy English ivy. The seats and floor
were bare, and the only musical instrument
was a small meiodeon. Such a contrast to
our aristocratic church 1
I saw were as much in contrast, too !
pic, but there was such an expression of
pure content and love and fellow-feeling,
thatI hardly thought of their costumes——
though it was evident they did not come from
the deft, artistic hands of a Worth.
The minister was as plain as the congre-
gation, his language was suited to the plainer
tastes of the perple; but his face held such
a gleam ofldivine Love that if he had been as
hideous as “Uriah Heep" one would hardly
illavn neticed it. The congregation ,was at-'
Eentlve lid quiet—there were no rustling of:
iilki l _ ces,‘ no flutteringof jeweled fan's ;‘
but now and then a sunny smile to friends
across the aisles.
After the benetiction I was greeted and
welcomed as though we had been acquainted
for years. In all my life I think my hand
had never been touched so sincerely.
“Well,” questioned this gentle friend of
mine, “what do you think of it ?”
“But there are no grand music and soft
lights and beautiful people! " I answered, not
willing to give up the thought that our
church was the best and most desirable.
“Ah, .but the love and good-will make up
for all that, dear,”'she replied with a smile.
“Come, confess—your church with. its lights
and shades tind- colors, its perfume and
music, would be far more pleasant—more
church-likee—inore Chintz-like if there were
someiof this homely love and good will_in it.”
“Yes,T'I said,- not yet quite convinced,
“but our church is beautiful .I";
. “In, carvings and architecture and grand
‘sicf' I grant you that, dear. Ours is ;
plain in that, but beautiful in love. If your .
pretty church had as much We in it as beauty
—what a heavenly plea it would be, little f
friend!"
'The subject was dropped there. But
someway, for all‘myr arguments in favor of
the fashionable Church, '1 never after felt
quite so minh in the presence of Divine Love
there, {as-iii" that little country church full of
homely, plainly dressed people! Why P
'Oh,vdearfriends, shall We not bring some
of our blessed Savionr’s love in the midst of' .
our music and beauty and wealth ? Perhaps
our church is considered the house of God,
but out of all the congregation, how many,
think you, would" be willing to leave the
luxury and elegance to case, for a little time,
the dying’b'ed of some poor, unfortunate sis-
ter or brother who has been used to no such
beauties as these?
'Oh, we‘ could not soil our gloves for that I
We will hire some one to nurse them i"

John Q's Weakness.
its. wnorn A GREAT SPEECH AND KILLED A
MAN Wirn IT.
Had you looked through camp you would
have discovered that every. miner had his
weakness. In some it was whisky, in others
old sledge, in others lyingmnd boasting, and
so on clear around. 'A few were lazy, a few
more were too fond of argument. and the
weakness of Elder Watkins, in particular.
was reading Testament too much.
Which is to remark that one may be too
good in this world. . .
Among the other weaknesses which cropped
out in our camp on Grizzly creek that win-
ter was the weakness of John Q. Baker.
Mr. Baker had spent yearsin inventirg a
great 'speech. He had brought the pieces
together at different 'times, as if they had
been parts of a mowing machine, and the
work of setting up, tightening the bolts,
greasing the bearings and hitching on the
horses was all done that winter.
It was a great speech.
It began with the landing of the Pilgrims
and didn't end at any particular epoch.
It was rcligious,politicai, social, statistical,
philosophical, valuable, and interesting, and
every respectable family ought to have had a
copy.
When the speech was finished and polish-
ed and ready for delivery its inventor suggest-
ed that we take a holiday and hear it. The
suggestion was not seconded. We were
working hard to make an average of ninety
cents per day and no one felt like losing time
to hear a speech.
Then John Q. took his speech under his
arm and walked over to Turkey Bend to find
an audience, but the mayor of the camp gave
..him five minutes in which to get out of
shooting range. He then tried the camp up
the~ Little Trtiil, and there be was actually
shot at. He returned to camp somewhat
discouraged.
' A man who has a speech to deliver and is
choked off must feel rather uncomfortable.
Indeedkit is not serving him just right, and
no one can blame him for asserting that the
spirit of the country is degenerating.
When John Q. discovered that the fruits of
his toil were not appreciated he went about
like a man who had taken a solemn vow to
abide his time and get even in the end. That
was ‘where his head was level. Had he
raised any row over cur want of appreciation
he would have been tossed into the creek,
followed by his great American speech and
other personal traps.
One day the boys over in the Bend had a
hanging bee and invited us to come down
and see a chap swing for his crimes. The
invitation was accepted by all but two of
couldn’t go, and John Q. Baker was mad and
didn’t want to. It was therefore arranged
that he should remain to care'for the elder, a
proceeding to which he agreed with wonder-
ful cheerfulness, .
of his heart. .
Wei left our camp at noon. reached the
Bend an hour later, and as the man who was
to hang had a long confession to make, and
did not have a good command of language,
we did not return until about 5.
Had anything happened ? You can bet
your last dollar there had!
Nearly a mile away we heard the voice of
John Q. Baker. pitched at its highest key and
occasionally caught such words as “Wash-
ington," Independence,” “Magus Charts,"
and “glorious country.”
As we drew near we discovered him on a
rock beside Elder Watkins’ shanty, that
great speech in his left hand and his right
slashing through the air. He had then been
speaking for four hours, and he had only
come down to the war of 1813
We made a rush for him and at the same
moment made the discovery that Elder Wat-
kins was stone dead in his bed. Beside him
lay a piece of paper and a pencil, and in a
trembling hand he had written :
utes will finish me. Please bring drown
him in revenge for this cold-blooded murder.
The great American speaker was still de—
livering his great American speech when we
rushed for him.
stranger how he outran the flectest_of the
crowd, but he actually got away and carried
his speech with him. It ought to have been
a great moral warning to John Q, Baker, but
it wasn't. He brought up in a camp sixteen
miles away and resumed his speech just
where we had interrupted it, and they
suspected him of being i. Mormon missionary
and hung him.

Editor of Evening Press:
Dunn SIR, —Feoll n g deeply grateful for the great
benefits which I have received from the use of a
very valuable article which has its origin and
home in our beautiful city.and hoping that others
who are afflicted as! have been may find like rc-
llef from its use. I beg the indulgence of a few
lines in your valuable paper for the“ privilege of
communicating to you a brief statementoffacts,
for the benefit of the multitude oi sufferers to be
met with on every side. Many of myfriends well
know that I have been very severely afflicted
with heart disease for a number of‘ years, and
have sufi’ercd from it as only these can sufi‘er
who have that disease ; it reduced my strength so
low that I could scarcely walk across my room,
and the least exertion» rendered me so short-
brenthed thatI dared scarcely move, and life
seemed very burdensome. I was treated for my
malady by the best physicians, and derived no
benefit from their treatment or prescriptions un-
til I was advised by my family physician to use
Hunt’s Remedy, as my trouble was caused by in-
action ol the kidneys, which affected very scri-
ously the action of the licurt.- I commenced tak-
ing it (having little faith in it or any other medi-
cine), and it has helped me wonderfully, and I
am now a great deal better, and have been ever
since I began its use. In fact I have taken no
medicine that has bciiefittcd me so greatly. lily
breathing is easy, and i have gained in strength
so much that I am able to do my housework. I
cheerfully recommend llimt’s llcmcdy to all who
may be afllicted as I have been,or who are sulfur-
ing from general debility and nervous prostra-
tion. Respectfully,
MRS. A. O. ROCKWELL.

“Please, mamma, what are you thinking __
about ?" said Ernest to his mother one day,
when she did not answer one of his many
questions, but appeared to be lost in very
deep thought. '
“I am thinking about who murdered Wll.
lie." said his mother.
“Who was Willie ?" and who murdered
him i" and “Why did they murder him 2"
were questions all asked in one breath by
Ernest. '
“I'll tell you about it, Ernest. There is a
little green grass mound in the churchyard
of a village on the hills, where the stone
quarries are. The little fellow who now lies
in that humble grave was the sweetest and
best beloved boy in that rude place. He was
the son of a poor but decent woman, whom
you know very well. Shelled other children
who were all very dear to her, but she had
none so lovely as Willie. ' He was ‘tho flower

gentle, and affectionate, and obtdicnmhut all
who knew him loved him. One day he was
sent to the stone quarry with the dinner of a
man who was working there, and when he
got there, one of the men gave him a glass of
die. He might as well have giqen him a
glass of poison. Pour child 1 His father
had been n druulimd, and find killed himself
with drink, and yet—can it be believed f—
Willie's mother had never told him there was
any danger in tasting, and so the poor, un-
warned child tasted that one glass of almond
it was his last. As he was returning from
the quarry hc‘felt the poison running through
his limbs, making them tremble at first, and
' tlicn bO-J beneath him; so be got on the
cart, with which lie was going back to the
village. They were expecting him at home,
and wondered why he stayed so long.
Little did they think that they should never
bear little Willie’s voice again. The cart
went rattling on over the rough road, then
jolt, jolt, over a large tree, which, as Willie
could not steady himself, threw him off.
Again the broadwheel jolted—crash. It had
crushed little Willie! Poor. murdered Wil-
liel There he lay, the curls and the blue
eyes, and the pretty dimpled mouth, and the
rosy checks, were all crushed in the cart cut.
There lay one of the many victims of strong
drink! Strong drink murdered Willie!”
The Great Salt Lake.
Four barrels of water of ,the Great Salt
Lake will leave, after evaporation, nearly a
barrel of‘salt. The lake was discovered in
the year 1820, and no outlet from it has yet
been ascertained. Four or five large streams
empty into it, and the fact of its still retain-
ing its saline properties seems to point to the
canclnsion. that there exists some secret bed
of saline deposit over which its waters flow,
pad that thus they continue salt; for, al-
though the lake may be but the residue of an
immense sea. which once covered the whole
of this region, yet, by its continuing so salt
with the amount of fresh water poured into
_ it constantly, the idea of the existence of
some such deposit from which it receives its
supply seems very probable. ,
For many years the lake gradually rose,
but in 1879 it receded some two or three feet
—-a most unusual occurrence—owing to the
exceptionally warm summer.
There are no fish in the lake, but myriads
of small flies cover its surface. The buoyancy
of the water is so great that it is not at all an
easy matter to drown in it. The length of
Salt Lake is eighty-five miles, and its breadth
forty-five miles. Compared with the Dead
Sea, the Great Salt Lake is longer by forty-
three piles, and broader by thirty-five.

”’Hovv' WATCHES ARE MADE. '
In a Soul) GOLD Warren, aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, a large proportion of metal is
needed only to stiffen and hold the engrav-
ed portions in place, and supply strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless. In
James 3083’ Patent Gold Watch Clues this
wss'rn is saved, and 30mm: and
STRENGTH increased by a. simple process,
at one-half the cost. A plate of SOLID
GOLD is soldered on each side of a plate
of hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steelrollers. From this the’ cases, backs,
centers, bezels, etc, are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. The gold is thick
enough to admit of all kinds of chasing,
engraving and engine turning. These
cases have been worn perfectly smooth by
use without removing the-gold: 17:12? is
file only case made under this process. Each
case is accompanied with a valid guarantee
sigmd by the maufacturers warranting it to
wear_ 20 years. 150,000 of these Cases
