As the overland express was snorting through Alraeda yesterday on its way to New York, the engineer suddenly whistled down brakes, the conductor frantically shouted and jerked the signal line, and with many a jar aud squeak the long line of cars was brought to a stop. The cause of this sudden "fetch up" was a fat old lady with a red face and a green parasol, who had planted herself squarely in front of the engine, and was making the most frantic signals for it to pause. "What's the matter; anything on the track ?" asked the engineer, excitedly. ""NTcfViinr* Knf ma " aairl tha rtlH lftdv. Stlfflv. JL.1 UbUiUg WUW UJVj wmw w??? w-j | ? ? ^ "Has there been a smash-up?

"Start her up, Jimmy ?" yelled the furious conductor; and if the old ladj hadn't hustled her skirts and humped herself she would have had a first-class case of damages against the eompauy. After that she stood apoplectic with rage, shaking her parasol at the disappearing train, and announcing her determination to go right over and see Governor Standard the very miuute the dishes were washed.?San Francisco J'ost. # A GOSPEL INFANT. There was a powerful revival the other night at Parson Bledso's Blue Light Tabernacle, and among those who experienced a change of heart was Jim Webster. Yesterday he met Parson Bledso, who asked Jim : "Is yer gwine ter stick, James ?" "Parson Bledso, ef anybody offers to gamble on my sticken', yer kin make money by taking 'em up. I'se gwine ter lead a new life till de lake whar de wum is nebber squeuelied is Inz over wid ice thick enough to bar a train of kerrs loaded wid railroad iron." "I'se glad to hear yer talk in dat strain,'' said the parson, gravely, "but kin yer pass by a yard after dark wliar dar is close hangin* out widout histin' yer leg ober de fence ?" "Look heah, you don't spect me to become a saint in less den two days ? I'se a gospel infant, what has ter be fed on light diet, but I tells yer I'm makin' rattling good time on de road to de New Jerusalem, when yer looks at my record foah de pass four yeahs." "How 'bout chickens?" "Last night after I had jiced de gospel baud, I started foah home, and I had to pass down de alley what leads by de backyard of Col. Jones' house. I hadn't moah den got pass his yeard when I found I was carryin' one ob his Spanish breed of roosters, wid big combs, in each hand. Satan must hab shoved dera fowls in my hands." "Jim Webster, you is gwine to bring de church into discredit. Don't you know Col. Jones is de only man what raises dem Spanish breed of chickens what kin be identified by der police ?" "Dat's just what my conscience tole me. I was filled with remorse as soon as I saw what kind of poultry I was totin' off. Besides, dem old roosters ain't wuff a cent ter brile, so I jest went back and put 'em right back whar I got era. "Brees de Lor'," said Parson Bledso. "I put 'em back and tuck two young pullets, what looks like any udder chickens and was jest de right size ter brile." "Don't add lying, Jim Webster, to yer udder sins." "I can't tell a lie, parson, but ef you bleeves I isn't one of de elect, jest come home wid me and hab some ob de breast and de stuffin'for dinner. I kin smell dera briled pullets now." He went.? Galveston New. Beg* A young lady who says she is young and handsome writes: "The man for me to love is vastly my superior; * * * a man who will compel my spirit to bend its knee to his; who will command my soul to stand still and shine on him, as Joshua commanded the sun; who can trample my will 10 the dust," etc. She should have no difficulty in finding such a man?one who will not only command her soul to stand still, but who will also command its owner to get up first in the morning to build the fire, split kindlings and carry up the coal, and whose language will make her hair stand on end when he comes home and finds dinner fifteen minutes late. There are lots of men who will bend her spirit for her, and also make her back bend over a wash-tub while they go down to the saloon and discuss the best method of saving the country from the hands of its political enemies. I'm Resigned.?It was a bad occasion. The doctors said the man couldn't live, and weeping friends surrounded his bedside. But he was not reconciled to depart. But he was young and there was much to hold him*to life. He struggled hard, mentally, to accept the situation, but he couldn't feel right about it. At length he opened his eyes and asked in a feeble whisper if the leader of the village band was at home. If so he desired, as a last dying request, that the band be brought out, and allowed to play under his window. The appeal was granted, and before the concluding strain was reached a submissive smile hovered about the shrunken lips of the departing one as he murmured: "Im?resigned. Nothing- worse?can?happen?now." Then jhis light went out.?Exchange. Jfam xvi^Mfle. BEEFSTEAK. The New York Observer says: If Miss Juliet Corson succeeds in teaching this generation how to cook a beefsteak tender and savory, she will deserve a monument more durable than bronze or marble, and every one who frequents a hotel or boarding-house, and every one who lives in a farm-house, should contribute liberally to it. If the following directions which she prepared for a meeting at Wilmantic, Conn., will produce the desired end?a tender steak?she will at least I have the gratitude of thousands, whether she j ever hears of it or not. We hope our readers will see what can be done in this way and so help on the desired reform: HOW 1 J PREPARE A STEAK. We hear a gireat deal about that "abomination called fried steak." I will tell you how to make tough steak tender, and how to fry it so that it will be juicy. Do not pound it, either with a rolliug pin or potato masher, or even with that jagged piece of metal crockery which house furnishing dealers will try to delude you into buying. If you do pound it you will only batter its fibres and let out all its juices. Pour into the bottom of a dish three tablespoon fills each of vinegar and salad oil, sprinkle on them half a spoonful of pepper (and a tablespoonful of chopped parsley, if you have it.) Do not use any salt. The action of the oil and vinegar will be to soften and disintegrate the tough fibres of the meat without drawing out its juices. The salt would do that most effectually and harden the fibres beside. You may add a teaspoonful of chopped onion if you like its flavor. Lay the steak on the oil and vinegar for three or four hours, turning it over every half hour and then saute, or half fry it quickly ; season it with salt after it is cooked, and serve it with a very little fresh butter, or with the rrravv fmm the "i-vintr r?Rl). If VOU Will fol ?1 " J - - "J " O I ? J low these directions and do not try to improve upon them, you can have tender steaks hereafter at will. HOW TO BROIL A STEAK. Do not season before cooking, as the action of salt upon its cut fibres is to extract their juices. Have the fire hot and clear, the gridiron perfectly clean, and after the meat has "been put upon it, tip it towards the back of the fire (unless it is provided with a ledge to hold the drippings ;) otherwise the fat droppings directly under the meat will burn up and blacken it with smoke. Expose one side of the meat to the fire, as close as it is possible to hold it without burning, until the surface is so completely seared that the juices do not escape, then turn the meat and carbonize or sear the other side; after that finish cooking it at a little distance from the coals, until it has reached the desired point. To ascertain this do not cut the meat, or you will let out the juices ; press your fingers upon its surface lightly and quickly; if it is quite rare, the fibres will still be so elastic as to spring up quickly the instant the pressure is removed; if it is medium rare, the fibers will be so far iKntr urt]] v\Qpflir rMlcf fVlP 1IUI UCUCU ttlUb l-UCJ mil J/UI 1 W.wv V..W pressure at first, aud when the fingers are removed, will rise again very slowly ; if it is well done, it will seem quite firm under the touch, and will not rise again when the fingers are lifted. In turning the meat do not stick a fork into it, because the holes made by the prongs aflbrd an outlet for the juices ; use a double gridiron or broiler, so that you can turn that and the meat at once; if the gridiron is one of the open kind, take the meat between the blades of two knives or spoons to turn it; or use steak tongs, if you have such an instrument. Position in Sleep.?A writer to the Christian at Work insists that position in sleep is of great importance. He says: The food passes from the stomach at the right side, hence its passage is facilitated by going to sleep on the right side. Water and other fluids flow equally on a level, and it requires less power to propel them on a level than upward. The heart propels the blood to every part of the body at each successive beat, and it is easy to see that if the body is placed in a horizontal position -the blood will be sent to the various parts of the system with greater ease, with less expenditure of power, and more perfectly than if one portion of the body were elevated above a horizontal line. If one portion of the body is too low, the blood does not return as readily as it is carried thither; hence there is an accumulation and distention, and pain follows. If a peison goes to sleep with the head but a little lower than the body, he will either soon wake up, or will die with apoplexy before morning, because the blood could not get roin 00 foof no if wqq UQV/Ai 11VIU kliv U1 UiU WO 4 WU W MO 4 V IIMO VMi 1 ?VM to it. The savage uses a log of wood or a bunch of leaves, civilized man a pillow, and if this pillow is thick, raising the head too high, there is not enough blood carried to the brain; and as the brain is nourished and invigorated by the nutriment it receivea,from the blood during sleep, it is not fed sufficiently, and the result is unquiet sleep during the night, a waking up in weariness, without refreshment, to be followed by a day of drowsiness and discomfort, and general inactivity of both mind and body. flaT" The Country Gentleman says: "The real profit arising from farming consists in the attention to details. He who looks closely after small things is the one who finds farm- j ing pays, for neglect in small thiugs leads to j carelessness in large ones. It is the last item which is added to any given product that 1 yields the profit/' Yet it is not always ad-1 visable to strike for the largest crop which a j ; piece of land can be made to produce, for the j j exhaustion of the soil may be so great as to j I more than counterbalance the value secured, j Some of the artificial fertilizers operate upon | the human system, producing a temporary excitement to be followed by a corresponding reaction. Hints for Young Housekeepers.? j | Every closet and room in a house should be thoroughly inspected once ? week. Newly ground flour which ffas never been ! packed is very superior to barrel flour. | In roasting mt *ts do not salt before putting ! in oven, as salt extracts the juice. In warm weather put your eggs in cold | water some time before you are ready to use i them. Lemons may be kept fresh a long time in j a jar of water, changing the water every morning. A true test for eggs is to drop them in water, and if the large end comes up they are not fresh. fUading fat tht Jfttlwik. CONDUCTED BY REV. ROBERT LATH AN. [Original.] CHRIST OUR ADVOCATE. Jesus Christ came into our world to save sinners. The object he had in view was two fold. First, to show, in the future ages of the world, the exceeding richness of God's grace and, second, to redeem sinners from the curse of a violated law and reinstate them in God's favor and friendship. As a redeemer, Chris! executes the office of a prophet, of a pries! and of a king. As a prophet, he instructs his people by his word and spirit; as a priest, he offered up himself a sin offering for his people and makes continual intercession for them a! the mercy seat on high ; as a king, he rules hi* npnnle dfifpndincr them from all his and ...w J | > - O their enemies. Part of Christ's mediatorial work was de signed to be accomplished on earth, and pari in Heaven. On earth, he lived, suffered and died ; but in Heaven, at the right hand of the majesty on high, he makes continual interces sion in behalf of his blood bought inheritance, Evidently, when our Saviour died upon the cross, his work as priest here upon earth was finished. He then, after his resurrection, ascended to Heaven, where, according to the general scope of the'Scriptures, he will remain until his second coming, at the last day, tc judge the world in righteousness. In answei to his request, God the father, gave the church the Comforter, the spirit of truth, to abide with them forever, and to lead them into all truth. Such being the case, with eminent proprie ty, we, of the present day, may be said to live under the dispensation of God's holy spirit As a once crucified but now risen and glori ously exalted redeemer, Jesus Christ now appears at the throne of God as an advocate in behalf of his people. That this is the doc triue of the Scriptures, no one acquainted with their teachings will, for a moment, ques tion. It is true that the Holy Spirit is often spoken of in-the Scriptures as an advocate Both Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit art called by the same name and designated by the same title. Thus, in John, 14:16, the Saviour says: "I will pray the father and he shall send you another comforter," and in lsl John, 2:1, we have these words,'"If any man (meaning any believer) sin, we have an advo !./? T-.tliat. " Tlia \ur>rrl iiqpH in t.lif tutc nitu biic a nw ??v. ? ? ?... original is paraclete. In the first case it is translated comforter, and manifestly mearn the Holy Spirit; in the second instance, it is rendered advocate, and means Jesus Christ, because it is so said. With strict propriety and in full accord with the teachings of the Bible, we may say that believers have two advocates?Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. We shall not undertake to show wherein the pleadings ol these advocates, in behalf of poor, erring be lievers, may be distinguished. They do not differ. Still, they are not in every respect the same. The object and design of both advocates is the same; but they may be distinguished thus: The Holy Spirit pleads the merits of Jesus Christ, while Jesus Christ pleads his own merits. With regard to Jesus Christ as an advocate, the following particulars are worthy of notice, 1st. The advocacy of Jesus Christ teaches us that the only mode of approach to God, is through a mediator. This fact is demonstrated by all that Jesus Christ has done, and is still doing, as the Redeemer and Saviour ol sinners. When Adam sinned, all direct communication between God and man was forever cut off This is taught by the Psalmist, when he says : "There is forgiveness with thee (God) that thou raaye^t be feared." To fear 6od means to reverence and adore him as God, God does not propose that any of Adam's race shall worship in any other way than through a redeemer, and the only redeemer which God recognizes is Jesus Christ. No worship, no matter how devout, which is of fered to God in any name except the name ol Jesus, is acceptable to God. On the contrary, it issin. It is idolatry, or daring presump tion. Every acceptable prayer is offered in the name of Jesus. All the blessings of this life, and that which is to come, are granted bj God to the believer in answer to the intercessory prayer of Jesus. God proposes to dc nothing for any of Adam's race only on the application of his son. 2d. The intercession of Jesus Christ, in be half of his people, is of the nature of a demand founded upon right. Hence, in John 17: 24, he uses these words: "Father, I will that those whom thou hast given me may be with me where I am," and in this instance the mode or manner of intercession is by stating his will. "I will," he says. Jesus claims the salvation of his people as a right. He died for them, and for them he rose again from the dead. They are his by right of purchase. 3d. Jesus Christ never forgets his people. "He that keepeth Israel, shall neither slumber nor sleep." He is always at the mercy seat, ready to advocate the cause of his poor sinning people. He does not, like the High Priest of old, go once a year into the holy o! holies, but is continually there. Jesus, the advocate, never can forget his people. This is beautifully and strongly expressed by the prophet Isaiah. "Can a woman forget hei suckling child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb ? Yea, thej iimv foreret. vet will I not forget thee. Be tf ? ' ? ? hold I have graven thee upon the palms ol my hands." The allusion here, no doubt, ie to the high priest having the names of the twelve tribes of Israel engraved upon hie breast-plate, when he went into the holy place, Exodus, 28. In bis pierced hands Jesus bag the names of all his people written or graven, These he constantly presents to the Father. 4tb. The intercession of Jesus Christ in behalf of his people is all powerful. This follows from the nature of the contract between the Father and the Son. Jesus came into the world to do the will of his Father. This is stated in so many words by the Psalmist: "Lo, I come. I delight to do thy will, 0, ray God." God, the Father, gave his son, Jesus, a certain work to do. This work Jesus did. He finished the work which the father gave him to do. The evidence of this is the fact that Jesus was raised from the dead. It ie because of this fact that the Father always hears the Son. In behalf of his erring people Jesus can say: "Father, forgive them. They are mine. I bought them with my own blood, I wrought out and brought in for them a perfect righteousness. I suffered the penalties oi a violated law in their room. I was wounded for their transgression; I was bruised for their iniquity; the chastisement of their place was ' laid upon rne. I made my soul an offering - for their sin. Now, Father, let me see of the travail of ray soul and be satisfied." To which the Father replies: "Thou art my ouly son, in whom I am well pleased. I will grant thee thy heart's desire." i Finally, it is in.the intercessory work of Jesus, that the believer finds a never-failing 5 source of support and comfort. The faith of . all believers is very weak, but Jesus prays , that their faith fail not "Simon, Simon, beI hold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he i. may sift you as wheat; but I have prayed . for thee, that thy faith fail not." Every bej liever may rest assured that he has an advo, cate in Heaven who never slumbers nor sleeps. , Satan will never be permitted to get a decided . advantage over the believer. Satan will nevj er be suffered to sift the child of God as men I sift wheat. The compassion of Jesus for his blood-bought inheritance, is infinite. There is nothing like it in the universe. No crea . ture can comprehend it Compared with the I love of Jesus for his people, all other love , vanishes away. With all the vehemence of His incomprehensible love, Jesus advocates the cause of "his people. 1 ?otfcvUte (SNquim.
