"THE AMERICAN Laired women read od expound It; the Tuljjar crowd atd unevantrt Hied nibM all practice It It atumea that mod em thought has pulverized the old KOt-pt I. The; do not teem to know ' that they are thrashing old straw; that I the multitudinous phaea of modern i Infidelity are nothing more than the ' galvanized ghrt8 of cecturks long since dead. The advocate of thtee skeptical doctrines gratify their vanity at the expense of truth. They are wielding the cast-off ard broken weap on of a defeated paeanli-m. Well ha Bancroft eaid: "Icfidelity gain the victory when he wrcttles with hypoc risy or eupertition, but never whin her antagonist la truth." Surpassing strange that each generation must pa rade the same dead things In nw dressee, and cot only affirm that they are alive, but actually affect many peo ple by sheer Impudence and sublime Ignorance. Its chief weapons are ridi cule and scorn, ry taking some half truth and making it the butt of just and jeer. A fool and a scoffer can pro duce a popular laugh; a coarse laugh or a distorted truth, a bit of sarcasm, will disfigure the beautiful face of truth to the unbelieving and Immoral. J When the French infidel said to the Verdean peasant: "We will pull don your churches, destroy your pictures, and demolish everything that reminds you of God," the peasant replied: "But you will leave us the stars." And long as the stars revolve and shine, so long the heavens shall declare the glory of God, and the firmament shall show his handiwork. Chiseled upon marble tablet in the wall of the obser vatory at Willlamstown College are the words of Isaiah: "Lift up your eyes o high and behold who hath created these things, that brlngeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his miht for that he is strong in power; not one faileth." Isaiah xl, 26. This was the prophet's call to the skeptics of his time, and it is as timely to day as it was then. The French officers could dia pute and deny the existence of a Cre ator, as they sailed down the Mediter ranean beneath the splendors of the evening skies; but when Napoleon, wearied of their babble, pointed up ward to the myriad stars above them and said, "And very well, gentlemen dui wno made au tneser' they were silent, as all atheists must be. Protestant Christianity embodies the august moral and spiritual verities of divine revelation. Much of modern skepticism is a revolt against the mon strous and blasphemous assumptions of . the Roman Catholic hierarchy. The whole system of the papacy is so mani festly unscriptural, unreasonable, in human, barbaric and diabolical that it can only thrive among the ignorant, superstitious and Immoral. The re sponsibility for the widespread infidel ity in France and Italy to day is di rectly traceable to the moral and spir itual blight of Romanism. Romanism can endure the light of neither reason, history nor the Bible. As a rule, infi delity and immorality go hand in hand. As Rome is responsible for 70 per cent of all our crime, she is likewise account able for a like proportion of popular and Ignorant unbelief. Thank God truth Is getting her boots on, and will soon chafe every papal and unreason ing lie back into its native hell, and at the same time emancipate man by the enthronement of Him whose truth Protestant Christianity seeks to em body. RITUALISM. Another peril Is also found in the growth of ritualism. Noticing with pain tne prevailing tendency in some of our churches to identify religion with attitudes, forms, ceremonies, v'glls, fe'asts, fasts, vestments, music, candles, colors, incense, sacrifices, and so forth, I cannot but raise my voice In protest against such outrages, justly contend ing, since "the kingdom of heaven is within us," that religion is not dept nd ent upon outward ecclesiastical observ ances, that all the sacred trumpery in the world cannot take the place of mercy, righteousness and truth. The religion of Christ, I need scarcely say, is not a religion of ru brics, rituals, creeds, surplices, or cere monials, but quite the contrary a re ngion so iree, so simple, so true, so natural, so.tender, so pure, so pleasant and so blessed in its unfoldinga that "a child," and not a parchment doctor of divinity, is the perfect pattern of its priesthood. B The life of Christ was a perpetual protest against the rigorous exactions of Pharisaical formalism, which, confounding the letter with the spirit of the law, made the "white sep ulchre" of death the mcdel of devotion for depravity. About the "meek and lowly" Jesus there was nothing of ostentation or dls play either in dress, In doctrine, in de portment, or in character; and, so far fi cm being a ritualist in the modern sense of the term, His mission was to put an end to ritualism, to abolish new moons, phylacteries and sabbaths, to give the finishing blow to Jewhh rites and ceremonials, 'and to make sacrifi cial offering for rain and sacrificing priests forevermore impossible. In His first miracle, by" turning water into wine, He gave to the lifeless, cold ob servances of " priestly ministrations an inward, reviving, spiritual application; and by His death, when the veil of the I temple was rent in twain. He Unshed : vne worn or man s redemption. He es- ' tahlihfd the brotherhood of the human ! race, He removed the distinction be- tween pries and layman, opening i by doing so the kingdom of heaven all believer. What Christ did In per son whiU on earth I now continued in His absence by the more pervasive In- fkeneeof the Holy Spirit, opcratin everywhere unseen within the sanctu ary of the human breast. And, Christ was opposed to ritualism In his day, the same may bo said of the Spirit under whose dispensation we are present living, whk-h, like tlm wind "blowing where It liteth," is no re specter of persons; and which may be said, acco-dingly, to have neither rite nor ritual, neither division nor distinc tion, neither posture, form nor color, i It comprehensive ministration. Christ the man of poverty was a reformer, the grandest that ever lived; and because He was no less opposed to formal rites and ceremonies than U the tyranny of the priests who proflte J by them, that was just the very reason why the scribes and pharisees of Hi day, whose vicious practices He condemned, could not endure Him. Carnally minded men, puffed up by insolence and pride, and living more in the outer than in the inner man, require a sensuous serv ice to beautify corruption and hide the deformity that lurks within; and be cause the glamor of smoking altars, by holy tallow caudles decorated, is to them more edifying than the religion of the heart, by the seven fold gifts of the Spirit of God illuminated, the lights above to the lights beneath must be subjected; in other words, the blessed light of day must be excluded to cole brate the funeral of God in pantomime. There are many roads that lead to Rome, but none is more popular in England and America than the one called "Ritualism." The substitution of form for faith, ceremony for Christ, rubrics for religion, a wafer for God. Candle and clothes are innocent in themselves, but when they become the sign of p-inclples and practices un primitive, unscriptural, dangerous, false and sacrilegious, they are matters of grave concern. All such Romish tendencies are to be repudiated with every nerve and fibre of our religious conviction; for Romarism is simply a galvanized paganism, a counterfeit Christianity. All know the similarity of Romish and Buddhish worship. The worship is similar and equally imposing. One eye-witness describes the sight he saw in a Buddhist temple: There stood fourteen priests seven on each side of the altar erect, motionless, with clasped hands and downcast eyes, their shaven heads and flowing gray robes adding to their solemn appearance. The low and measured tones of the slowly moving chant they were singing might have awakened solemn emotions, too, and called away the thoughts from worldly objects. Three priests kept time with the music, one heating an immense drum, another a large iron vessel, and a third a wooden ball. After chantirg, they kneeled upon low stools and bowed before the colossal image of Buddha, at the same time striking their heads upon the ground. Then, rising and facing each other, they began slowly chanting some sentences, and rapidly Increasing the music and their utterances, until both were at the climax of rapidity: they diminished in the same way until they had return to the original measure. In the mean time, some or tne number could not restrain their curiosity, and even while chantirg and counting their beads, left their places to ask for book The whole service reminded me forcibly ot scenes in Romish chapels the shaven heads of the priests, their long robes, mock solmnity, frequent prostrations, chantings, beads; yea, and their idols, too, all suggest their types, or their antitypes, in the apostate church. v hat real difference exists between our advanced ritualistic church service and that of the church of Rome? It reminds one of the story told by a Ro man Catholic priest at Clifton, who asked one of his friends why he did not attend the Catholic chaoel. He re plied that he bolonged to the Anglican church, and worshipped at , naming a well-known Protectant church. The priest smiled: "Now, my good friend," e said, "you only have mock-turtle at your hybrid place of worship; come and have the real turtle in mine." The friend reflected, and took the priest's advice. Protestant Christianity stands as an emphatic protest against sacerdotalism, or a sacrificial priesthood. It repudi ates as unscriptural the vicarious sacrifices and pardoning powers of mere men. It also stands to resist the doc tri nes of transubstantiatlon and auric ular confession. Better that our people reel back Into barbarism and savagery than to be led back into the intolerable tyranny of an unscrupulous and las civious priesthood. Our times demand a church with deep doctrines, wide sympathies, keen appreciation of Chris tian virtue mand unselfish service; a church which embodies the Caristianity of Christ; such is found alone in the Protestant religion. God save us from the fatal folly of flirting with the holy mother of harlots, the church of Rome? ProUistant.'sm failing? One of our exchanges says: "Just before leaving for h! summer vacation, Dr. R. F I lor too preached to his London con gregation a set mon on, "I ProU stant ism Decaying?" "The answer," he al'l, "if we are candid, if we are de termlncd to face the simple facts In our country, Is this: In England, for a time, It certaln'y Is; not by the acces sion of large number at present to the papal church, but by the progress of the Catholic principle Involving the Catholic claim in the church of Eng land itself. In many hundreds of parish churches in Englard today, almost all the practice which occasioned the reformation are restored. Prayers are i lreb.-f, at any rate in private, to the saints. The mass Is a sacrifice again. Solemn strain of the Aynus Iki fill the tmo'pbere as the lamb I offered on the altar by the sacrifice of the priest. The claim of the priesthood are lderi' tlcal with the claims of the Catholic HOT SI'ltlMiS, S. 1. If Indication count for anything, the Hot Spring of South Dakota are des tined to b coma the most popular resort between Chicago and the Paclfl j Coat. Thty are situated in the gentle and beautiful canon of Full River, and are thecentor of a splendidly built little city of three thousand ermanent in habitant. The tfficacv of their water for rheumatism, dypepU, and, in fact, almost every chronic disorder of the system, is too well known to require statement. It Is testified to by the an nual arrival of thousands of invalids, and the departure of these same per son, after a few week, in much Im proved or wholly restored health. The Springs are surrounded by many ob ject of surpassing natural Interest, as Wind Cave, equal in extent to the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky, and far more wonderful Information, filled with priests of the sixteenth century.

The hotels and the bathing aocom The A. P. A. Magazine. Protestant America many are drifting in like manner toward the church of Rome. It has recently boen asserted that during the past twenty years Protestantism has been a failure in New York city. Among the Episcopal churches of this city (Chicago), troubles are brewing over rapid and radical Romish tendencies. In the church at Ravens wood the worshipers bow to the altar and address the rector as father. On the walls of St. Lukn's and the Church of the Ascension, pictures portraying the stations of the cross are displayed. The auricular confessional Is also a feature In the Church of the Ascension, and Is practiced in a quiet manner In other churches. The early celebrations in these churches are qi'iet and plain, and are attended by the faithful. The 11 o'clock service on Sunday Is designated as "high mass," and is celebrated In All Saints', Ascen slon and St. Luke's parishes, with all the pomp and display of the Roman church. In some of the churches priestly absolution is taught, and mass for the souls of the departed is said under the auspices of All Souls' Guild From what has already been said, it must be apparent to all that Romanism is the supreme peril to American Prot estantism. It is remarkable that the second step in the investigation of im migration, intemperance, Immorality, infidelity or ritualism, brings you face to face with the papacy. All menacing powers find hospitality here. That a crisis Is pending between Protestantism and the papacy Is the deenest convic tion of the most careful students of our times. This collision Is not arbitrary or capricious, but natural and Inevi table. It originates in the fundamental antagonisms between the principles, spirit, purpose and plan of Protestant Christianity and the Romish hler- rchy. Beyond a certain point these two sets of principles cannot live at peace in the same country and among the same people. That point has been reached. Wise and patriotic men see the Incompatibility between our free institutions and this papal hierarchy, ana are determined at all hazards to preserve the Institutions which were bum, nurtured and matured by E'an geiical Christian ttv. Romanism is the religion of a church: Protestantism is the religion of a baok. Infallibility of the church means the slavery of the individual; but infallibility of the Bible means personal liberty and growth. Protestantism is a revolt against the absolutism of Rome. The papacy de thrones both God and Ciesar by declar ing that it is both church and state. Protestants refuse to believe that this pitiless despotism has been metamor phosed into republicanism. Is Protestantism anarchy? A sharp editorial in the Catholic Mirmr for Jan uary 6th, 1894, gives a list of prominent anarchist periodicals now published: In France nine, one in Algiers, three in Belgium, six in London, three in Buenos Ayres, ten in Germany, four in Holland, seven in Italy, two in Brazil, seven in Spain, one In Chill, one in Bohemia, three in the United States; a tHal of fifty six. The reader may be inclined to think that the above indicates that anarchism thrives best under Roman Catholic Influence: but such is not the opinion of the Mirror, as the following from its editorial will show: "These publications are only the feeble indica tion of the widespread evil which is threatening our modern society with ruin, but they are a powerful means of diffusing socialist and anarchist ideas (i m (Mi i 4V.A - " uus mo masses, jnce more we stand upon a volcano which threatens to explode with a formidable outburst. awaken society out of its lethargy. That same society has sowed the seed, it will reap the harvest. Trace back that anarchy, that subversion of everv order, social, moral and religious, and you will find its parent in Protestant- Ism, which itself was an outcome of previous errors. Protestantism is a protest; so Is anarchy, hut the latter goes further than its parent. Protes- modations for guests are unsurpassable, and nothing Is loft to be desired by any grade of people, from the nabob travel Ing for amusement to the poverty stricken Invalid In search of cheap and speedy restoration to health.
