t A Beautiful Thing.
The lady in her elegant victoria
drove up to the great dry goods store ,
and , stepping daintily out , she walked
into the busy place. Approaching a
weary looking girl at one of the coun ,
ters. she said :
t
"What time do you get off duty ? "
_ "Usually at 0 , madam , " replied the
p. astonished girl , "but to day at 5. "
"Don't you get very tired working so
long ? "
"Yes , madam , but I must work or
starve.
"Well , will you let me take you for
a drive of an hour after you are
through to-day ? I'm sure it will do
You good. "
The girl , knowing the wealth and social -
cial position of the lady , blushed withi
pleasure and she was only too glad to
accept the invitation so politely and
1 kindly extended , and the lady , with a
cheery smile and bow , walked out
? ? Then the man who dreamed this
woke up and wondered how the mist -
t chief people could dream such improbable -
able and ridiculous things.-1)etroit

African Linguul I'orerty.
Ur. Good , a missionary in the interior
of Africa says that the PavertY of the
native language is a serious hindrance
to missionary effort. In the Bule language -
guage , for instance , there is no word
fol' "thanks" or "thanksgiving. " "TO
believe " " " " have faith"
, "to trust , "t0
are all expressed by the same verb to
. m which there is no corresponding noun.
There is no word for "spirit. " The
Bulc have alwayb believed in an invisIble -
Ible God , but they have never given
such a being a name. With the Buie a
living man has a body and a shadows -
s the literal shape cast by the living per-
: son-which at death leaves the body
? nd becomes a disembodied spirit with
a new name which cannot be used to
1 apply to God and the angels. So 1)r.
Good is driven to say that God is a
"shadow" and thatChrist evilI send His
"holy shadow" into inen's hearts , etc.

Graveyard Soil.
I 11'hile cremation of the dead is nn
cloubtedly growing in favor it appears
I that the dangers attending the ordinary -
nary burial practice may have been cx-
aggerated. This is indicated by a
1 chemical and bacteriological examination -
tion ofrsamples of virgin soils , pure ag-
t rieultural soils , and graveyard soils ,
tiat his lately been made by a Scotch
q investigator , Dr. Jamcs Buchanan
Young. The proportion of organic
t matter , as judged by the organic car-
bun and nitrogen present in the samples -
ples , was found to be not materially
greater in soil that has been used for
burial than in good pure agricultural
soil. No pathogenic organisms were
discovered in the graveyard soil , and
the number of bacteria present , though
greater than in virgin soil , was much
smaller than one might expect The
resuitS , in fact , tend to support the
idea that properly conducted burial in
, suitable and well drained soils can
pause no riskto public health.

BU * REVIVAL IS NEAR ;
ALL MANKIND IS TURNING TOWARD -
WARD ISRAEL ,
Or. Talmage IC5IM the Signs of the
'l'imo's hi a Notable Sermon-Real
dleanhrg of Electricity , Steam and
Other Inrprovcutoats.
BRoori.YS , N. Y. , Dec. 2.-Dr. Tal
mage chose for the subject of his ser-
nlnn through the press to-day , the
' Onjeetions to Religious Hevivals , "
from the test : Luke yG , ' 'They in-
closed a great uutltitude of fishes , and
theft net broke. "
Simon and his coinralcs lead cxperi
eneed time eight before what fishermen
call "poor luck. ' ' Christ steps on board
the fishing smack and tells the sailors
to pull away front the beach , and directs -
rects their to sink the net. Sure enough ,
very soon the net is full of fishes , and
the sailors begin to haul in. So large
: t school of fish was taken , that the
hardy men begin to look red in the
fact ; as they pull , and hardly have they
begun to rejoice at their success when
snap goes a thread of the net , apl snap
goes another threacl , so there is danger
not only of losing the fish , but of losing -
ing the net.
' Vithout ouch care as to how mucli
the boat tilts , or how nincli water is
splashed on deck , the fishermen rushm
about , gathering up the broken meshes
of the net. Out yonder is a ship dancing -
ing on the wave , and they hail it :
'Ship ahoy ! bear down this way ! " The
ship comes , and both boats , and fishing -
ing sumacks are filled with the flotui-
dering treasures.
"Alm ' ' "how niuch
! says sonic one ,
better it would have been if they had
stayed on shore , and fished with a
hook and line , and taken one at a
time , instead of having this great excitement -
citement , and time boat almost upset.
and the net broken , and having to call
for help , and getting sopping wet with
the sea ! " The church is the boat , the
gospel is the met , society is the sea ,
and a great revival is a whole school
brought in at one sweep of time net.
I have admiration for that miian who
goes out with a hook and lineto
fish. I admire the way he unwinds
time reel , and adjusts the bait , and
drops the hook in a quiet place on a
still afternoon , and here catches one
and there one ; but I like also a big
boat , and a large crew , and a net a
smile long , and swift oars , amid stout
sails , and a stiff breeze , and a great
multitude of souls brought-so great a
multitude that you have to get help to
draw it ashore , straining the net to the
utmost until it breaks here and there ,
letting a few escape , but bringing time
great multitude into eternal safety.
In other words , 1 believe in revivals.
Time great work of saving men began
with : ; , Ooo people joining the church in
one day , anti it will close with forty era
a hundred million people saved in
twenly-four hours , when nations shall
be born in a day. But there are objections -
jections to revivals. People are opposed -
posed to tlteui because the net might
get broken , and if by the pressure of
souls it does not get broken. then they
take their own penknives and slit the
net. They inclosed a great multitude
of fishes and the net broke. ' '
It is sometimes opposed to revivals
of religion that those who come into
the church at such times do not hold
out ; as long as there is a gale of blessing -
ing , they have their sails up ; but as
soon as strong winds stop blowing ,
then they drop into a dead cairn. But
what are the facts in the case ? In all
our churches , the vast majority of time
useful people are those who are
brought in under great awakenings ,
and they hold out. Who are the prominent -
inent men in the United States in
churches , in prayer meetings , in Sabbath -
bath schools ? For the most part they
are time product of great awakenings ,
I ] tare noticed that those who are
brought into time Kingdom of God
tlim ougli revivals have snore persistence
and more determination in time Christian -
tian life than those who come in under
a low state of religion. People born
in an ice house may live , but they will
never get over time cold they caught in
the ice house. A cannon ball depends
upon the impulse witli which it starts
for how far it shall go and how swiftly ;
and the greater the revival force with
which a soul is started , the more far-
reaching and 'far-resounding will be
the execution.
But it is sometimes objected to re.
vivals that there isso mncii excitement.
that people mistake hysteria for
.
We must admit that in every revival
of religion there is either a suppressed
or a demonstrated excitement. Indeed -
deed , if a man can go out of a state of
condemnation into a state of accept-
.ance with God , or see others go , without -
out any agitation of soul , he is in an
unhealthy , morbid state , and is as repulsive -
pulsive and absured as as a mean who
should boast lie saw a child snatched
out front under a horse's ] roofs , and
felt no agitation , or saw a man rescued
from the fourth story of a house on
fire , and felt no acceleration of the
pulse.
Salvation from sin and death and
hell into life and peace and heaven
forever , is such a tremeudous thing
that if a man tells me he can look on
it without any agitation I doubt his
Christianity. The fact is , that sonic-
times excitement is time most important -
tant possible timing. In case of resusic-
tation from drowning or freezing the
one idea is to excite animation. Before -
fore conversion we are dead. It is the
1 business of the church to revive ,
I arouse , awaken , resuscitate , startle
into life. Excitement is bad or good
according to what it makes us do. if
'
it makes us do that which is bad , it is
bad excitement ; but if it make us agitated -
tated about our eternal welfare , if it
I make us pray , if it make us attend
upon Christian service , if it make us
- - - - - - - -
- - - - -
cry unto Gad for mercy , then it is a
good excitement.
It is sometimes said that during revivals -
vivals of religion great multitudes of
children and young people are brought
into time church , and they do not know
what they are about. It has been my
observation that the earlier people
come into time kingdom of God the
more useful they are.
Rabert Hall , time prince of Baptist
preachers , was converted at 12 years
of age. It is supposed he knew what
lie was about. Matthew Henry , the ;
commentator , who did more than any
inami of his century for increasing the
interest in the study of the scriptures ,
was converted at 11 years of age ;
Isabella Graham , immortal in the
Christian churcim , was converted at 10
years of age ; Dr. Watts , whose hymns
will be sung all down the apes , was
contorted at O years of age ; Jonathan
Edwards , perhaps the mightiest futel-
heeL that the American pulpit ever
produced , was converted at 7 years of
age ; and that father and mother take
au awful responsibility when they tell
their child at 7 years of age , "You are
too young to be a Clu'istian , ' ' or "You
are too young to connect yourself with
the church. " That is a mistake as
lone ; as eternity.
if during a revival two persons present -
sent themselves as candidates for the
church , and the one is ten years of ag (
and the other is 40 years of age , I will
have more confidence in time profession
of religion of time one 10 years of ape
than the one 40 years of age. Why ?
Time one who professes at 40 years of
age has forty years of impulse in the
wrong direction to correct , time ehihl
has only tee years in time wrong direction -
rection to correct. Four times ten are
forty. Four times time religious prospect -
pect for the lad that comes into the
kingdom of God , and into time churclm
at 10 years of age titan time man at 4i ; .
1 am very apt to look upon revivals
as connected with certain men who
fostere(1 them. l'eople who in this
clay do not like revivals , nevertheless -
theless have not words to
,
ecpress their acuniration for time revivalists -
vivalists of the past , for they were
revivalists-Jonathan Edwards , John
Wesley. George Whiticld , Fletclmer.
Gritim , Davies , Osborn , Knapp , Nettle-
ton , aid many others whose names
come to nmy mind. The strengtlm of
their intellect and the lmoliness of
their lives make me think they would
not have anything to do with that
which was eplmemeral. OlmI it is easy
to talk against revivals.
A nuui said to Mr. Dawson : "I like
your sermons very much , but time after
meetings I despise. 11'hen the prayer
meetings begin I always go up into the
gallery and look down. and I amp dis-
gusted. " "Well , " said Mr. Dawson ,
"the reason is you go on the top of
your neighbor's house and look down
his chimney to examine Iris fire , and
of course you ommly get smoke in your
eyes. Why don t you come in time door
and sit down and warm ? "
Oh ! I am afraid to say anything
against revivals of religion , or against
anything that looks like them , because -
cause 1 thin ! : it may be a sin against
the Holy Ghost , and you know the
Bible says that a sin against time Holy
Ghost shall never be forgiven , neither
in this world nor the world to come.
Now , if you are a painter , and 1
spealo against your pictures , do I
not speak against you ? If you
are an architect , and I speak against
a building you put up , do I not spealo
against you ? If a revival be the work
of the l Ioly Ghost , and I speak against
that revival , do I not speak against
the Holy Ghost. And whosoever
speaketh against the Holy Ghost , says
time Bible , lie shall never be forgiven ,
neither in this world norin the world
to come. I think sometimes people
have made a fatal mistake in this
direction.
1lany of you know time history of
Aaron Burr. He was one of the most
brilliant men of his day. I suppose
this country never produced a stronger
intellect lie was capable of doing
anything good and great for his country -
try , or for time Church of God had lie
been rightly disposed : but imis name is
: issociatcd with treason against the
United States government which the
tried to overthrow , and with libertinism -
ism and public immorality.
Do you know where Aaron Barr
started on the downward road. It was
when he was in college , and he became
anxious about his soul , and was about
to put himself under time influences of
a revival , and a minister of religion
said : Don't go there Aaron , don't go
tlmere ; that's a place of wildfire and
great excitement ; no religion about
tlutt4 don t go there. " lie tarried away.
His serious impressions departed. lie
started on the downward road. And
who is responsible for his ruin ? Was
it the minister who warncdltim against
that revival ?
When I am speaking of excitement
inrevivals , of course I do not mean
temporary derangement of time nerves ;
I do not mean the absurd things of
whichm we have read as transpiring
sometime in time church of Christ , but
I mean an intelligent , intense , all
absorbing agitation of body , mind and
soul in the work of spiritual escape
and spiritual rescue.
Time difficulty is that when a revival
begins in a church it begins at so many
points. that while you have doused one
anxious soul with a pail of cold water ,
there are 500 other anxious souls on
fire. Oh ! how much better it would be
to lay hold of time chariot of Christ's
gospel and help pull it on rather than
to fling ourselves in front of the
wheels , trying to block their progress.
We will not stop time chariot , but we
ourselves will be ground to powder.
Did you ever hear that there was a ;
: onvention once held among the ice =
bergs in the Arctic ? It seems that they i
summer was conning on and the sun ;
was getting hotter and hotter , andi
there was danger that the whole ice
field would break up and flow away :
'
so the tallest , and the coldest , and time
broadest of all time icebergs , time very ]
king of the Arctics , stood at the head'
Of the convention , and with a gavel of
ice smote on a table of ice calling the
convention to order. But the sun
kept growing in intensity of heat , and
the south wind blew stronger and
stronger , and soon all the ice field began -
gan to flow away. Time first resolution
passed by the convention was : "Re-
solved , That we abolish the sun. "
But the sun would not be abolislmed.
Time heat of the sun grew greater and
greater until after awimile the very
king of time icebergs began to perspire
under the glow , and the smaller icebergs -
bergs fell over , and the cry was : "Too
much excitement ! order ! order ! " Then
time whole body , the whole field of ice ,
began to flow out , and a thousand
voices began to ask : "Where are we
going to now ? Where are we floating
to ? We will all break to pieces. " By
this time time icebergs had reached time
gulf stream ; and they were melted into
time bosom of time Atlantic ocean. Time
warm sun is the eternal spirit. The
icebergs are frigid Christians. The
warm gulf stream is a great revival.
The ocean into which everything melted -
ed is the great. wide heart of time pardoning -
doning and sympathizing God.
But I think , after all , the greatest
obstacle to revivals tdmrougholtt Christendom -
endom today is an unconverted min-
istry. We nust believe tlmat time vast
majority of those who officiate at
sacred altars are regenerated ; but I
suppose there may float into time ministry -
istry of all the denominations of Christians -
tians meu whose hearts have never
been changed by the grace of God. Of
course tlmcy arc all antagonistic to re
rivals.
Suppose by snme extra prolongation
of human life , at the next fifty years
you should walk around the world.
you would not in all that walk find
one person that you recognize. Why ?
All dead , or so changed you would not
know them. In other words , if you
postpone time redemption of tiiis world
for fifty years , you admit that time majority -
jority of time two rlmole generation
shall go off time stage unblessed and
unsaved. I tell you time church of
Jesus Christ can not consent to it. We
must pay anti toil and have the rc-
rival spirit , and we must struggle to
have time whole world saved before th , '
men and women now in micidle ] if :
pass off.
' 'Ohm ! " you say1t is too vase aim u -
terprise to be conducted in so shr
time. " Do you know ! mow long it
would take to save the whole world if
weir man would bring another ? It
would take ten years. By a calculation -
tion in compound interest , each man
bringing another and tlmat one another -
other , and that one another , iii ten
years time whole world would be rayed.
If the world is not saved in the next
tee years , it will be time fault of time
Cimurch of Christ.
It seems to me as if God is preparing
the world for some quick and universal
movement. A celebrated electrician
gave me a telegraph chart of time world.
On that chart the wires crossing the
continents and the cables under time
sea looked like veins read with blood.
On that chart I see tlmat time headquarters -
ters of time lightnings are in Great
Britain and the United States. In
London and New York time lightnings
are stabled , waiting to be harnessed
for some quick dispatch. That shows
you that the telegraph is in possession
of Christianity.
It is a significant fact that time man
who invented time telegraph was an
old fashioned Christian-Prof. Morse.
and that the man wlmo put the telegraph -
graph under the sea was an old
fashioned Christian-Cyrus W. Field ;
and tlmat time president of the most
famous of the telegraph companies of
country was an old fashioned Chris-
tian-William Orton , going straight
to his home in heaven. What does all
that mean ?
I do not suppose that the telegraph
was invented merely to let us know
whether flour is up or down , or tvlmicli
filly won the race at the Derby , or
which marksman beat at Dollymount.
I supposed the telegraph was invented
and built to call the world to God.
In some of time attributes of the
Lord we seem to share on a snmall
scale. For instance , in his love and in
his kindness , But until of late , fore-
knowledge.ommniscicnee , omnipresence ,
omnipotence , seem to have been exclusively -
clusively God's possession. God desiring -
ing to make time race like himself ,
gives us a species of foreknowledge in
time weather probabilities , gives us a
species of omniscience fn telegraphy , .
gives us a species of omnipresence in
time telephone , hives us a species of
omnipotence in time steam power. Discoveries -
coveries and inventions all around
about us , people arc asking what next ?
I will tell you wiiat nest. Next , a
stupendous religious movement. Next ,
time end of war. Next , the crash of
despotisms. Next , the world's expur-
gation. Next , the Christlike domin-
ion. Next , the judgment. What becomes -
comes of the world after I care not. It
will have suffered and aehfeved enough
for one world. Lay it up in the dry-
docks of eternity. like an old man-of-
war gone out of service. Or. fit it up
like a ship of relief to carry bread to
some other suffering planet. Or , let
it be demolished. Farewell , dear old
world , that began tvitim paradise and
ended with judgment conflagration.

T AID EMPLOYES.
A NEW SCHEME OF THE VT. I. .
DOUGLAS SHOE CO.
will Furnish Their Help With Medical
Attendance.
William L. Douglas , the president of the
rorld-famed W. L. Douglas Shoe Co. , has
always had a great personal interest in the
army of men and women who inhabit the great
factory at Montello during the working hours
of the day , and who make the greatly adver-
Used$3 simoc.
He is a great believer in the idea that manufacturers -
facturers should have this pcronal Interest in
the condition of their employes , and feels that
if the idea is carried out to the extent that is
possible. that It will result ultimately in time
breaking Iowa of the barriers which have been
built up between employers and timoso whom
they employ , as it would convince the workingmen -
ingmen that their employers were not their
enemies , as some of them seem to drink now'
but their friends , with : r desire to do all for
then that was in their power.
having strong feelings upon this point , it is
only natural that Mr. Douglas should give the
matter some study and acquaint himself with
the result of the trials of similar plaits in other
places. He is satisfied that the scheme he lmus
originated is a good one. and he has now put it
to practical test.
Ile has handed to every person in his employ
-and they form a small army-a card which
will enable them to secure free medical attendance -
ance-
This is a practical illustrationof Mr. Douglas'
idea , and will surely be appreciated by the
hundreds who receive the cards.
The plan is a ; rood one.
Speaking of the W. L. Douglas Shoe Co. it
may be said that their factory is time only one
in Brockton where the principle of arbitration
is recognized and has full sway. Mr. Douglas
is a firm believer in the principle and has been
since the establishment of the state board of
arbitration. He claims that labor troubles
! mould not be as frequent as they are if manufacturers -
facturers and help would recognize this great
principle and adopt it.

To Stop Counterfeiting.
A scientist suggests the use of an alloy -
loy of gold and aluminumn for the mnak-
ing of money. lie says that counterfeiting -
feiting would be almost impossible , as
the only alloy which can be made successfully -
cessfully consists of"seventy-eight parts
of gold and twenty-two of aluminum.
The product is said to be of a beautiful
purple color , with ruby reflections that
cannot be imitated.
Deafness Can Not be Cured
by local applications , as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness , and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed , Deafness is the
result , and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tithe restored to its normal -
mal condition , hearing will be destroyed
forever ; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh , which is nothing but an inflamed -
flamed condition of the mucous surfuchs.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness ( caused by catarrh )
