THE SINNER’S HOPE.
ITS FOUNDATION IS LAID IN THE
WORK OF CHRIST.
Rer. Madison C. Fetors Says We Are Not
Simply to Frofess Christianity, We Must
Possess It—Open Your Ears to Woe
Worn Humanity.
Now if any man have not tho spirit of Christ,
ho is none of his.—Romans viii, 0.
Tho work of Christ is tho fonndatiou
of a sinner’s hope. Christ must he
known as Saviour before he can bo stud
ied as exemplar. But we are not simply
to profess Christianity, wo must possess
it. Conduct is tho best profession.
Creeds and churches are not Christian
ity. Christ is Christianity, and he is a
Christian who has tho spirit of Christ.
Christ’s was a humble spirit. Hu
mility followed him from his birth in
the manger to his borrowed grave. Wc
have just as much of Christianity as we
have humility.
Tho lesson of Christ’s humility is that
wo should bo willing to take the hum
blest place to serve others. Wo need the
John tho Baptist spirit, not envious of
tho success of another, saying with our
eye on the Lord, “He must increase, bnt
I must decrease.” A Christian minister
said, “I was never of any use until I
found out that God did not make me for
a great man. ” High trees are commonly
fruitless, and what grows on them hangs
high above our reach.
Christ’s was a compassionate spirit.
“I have compassion on the multitude.”
For the unfortunate leper he had a
friendly look, a kindly word and a deed
of tenderness. “Being moved with com
passion he put forth his hand and touch
ed him. ” Meeting the blind beggar on
tho Jericho highway, “Jesus stood, and
had compassion on him and touched his
eyes.” When the Lord saw the widow’s
tears at the gate of Nain, bewailing the
loss of au only son, ho had compassion
on her and said, “Weep not!” Do tho
compassionate words and loving deeds
of a tender Saviour find a transcript in
our lives?
Aro your ears open to the cries of woe
worn humanity? You pity the sorrows
of tho suffering. That is not enough.
Your hand must he taught to heed the
pleadings of your pitying heart. What
you feel you must do. What you wish
you must make au earnest effort to ac
complish. What you pray for you most
try to attain. Wo do most for ourselves
when wo do most for others.
Tho goods that God has given you aro
to be laid out for tho good of others—
sacred trusts not to be greedily hoarded,
lavishly squandered, or selfishly to bo
enjoyed, but generously to bo employed
^for tho glory of God. The most beuovo-
Jeut soul lives nearest to God. To bo
jood is noble. To do good is nobler.
FTho paramount aim of religion is not to
prepare for heaven, hut to make this
world better, wiser, happier and holier.
Heaven will not be a place of white
robes and golden harps and psalm sing
ing only, but it will also bo a place for
living, loving and doing. Bo not simply
good, be good for something. This will
make your life comfortable, your death
happy, your funeral sad, your account
glorious and your eternity blessed.
Christ’s was an unselfish spirit. “He
pleased not hi mse.lf. ’ ’ His entire! life was
a beautiful embodiment of that “love
which seeketh not her own. ” Aro you
dying daily unto self as unto sin? If
you should die today, could men, wom
en ami children look upon your quiet
face, lay snow white flowers .against
your hair, smooth it down with tearful
tenderness and fold your hands with
lingering caress? Could friends call to
mind with loving thought some gentle
word tho frozen lips had said or some
kindly deed the icy hand had wrought?
Would you be mourned? A dry eyed
funeral is a sad sight 1
Christ’s was a forgiving spirit. Jesus
said, “Father, forgive them, for they
know not what they do. ” With snHime
sweetness of soul, while treading tho
wine press alone, the divine Saviour
gathered his expiring breath to plead for
his foes. What a chaplet of forgiveness
he twined together in tho hours of his
darkness and agony and left bebina as a
legacy of loving patience to blush and
broatho upon our unforgiving spirits and
unrelenting words I Con yon, as a Chris
tian, on account of some petty grievance
unworthy of a calm thought, indulge
tho look of cold estrangement? “If any
man have a quarrel against any, even as
Christ forgave you, so also do ye. ” “Re
venge is sweet” only to a little, weak
and narrow mind.
Christ’s was the spirit of holy zeal.
“The zeal of thine house hath eaten mo
up.” What a power Christians would be
in the world if each one conld honestly
say with Brainerd, “Oh, that I were a
flaming Are in the hands of my God!”
We need at this time what tho Chinese
convert told the missionary his people
wanted, “Men witftMiufc hearts to tell us
of the love of Christ. ” Efc» yO” ' j »a
this world lukewarniAjOSS in any one de
partment of real life? Do yon find any
thing like apathy where men believe
their interests or safety are involved?
It is only skepticism that suffers en
thusiasm in the things of Caesar and
will not endure enthusiasm in the more
important things of God. We profess to
believe that the world of sinners outside
of Christ will be eternally lost unless
turned from their evil ways, and yet we
so live by our indifference as to give the
lie to such profession or else stamp our
selves without the commonest feeling of
humanity. It is impossible to believe
the troths of the gospel and yet be apa
thetic. I do not believe in religious ex
citement, but I do believe in excitement
in religion.
The whitest robes in heaven will be
found on those that have been baptized
with rnffering and bathed in tears.

THE AFTERNOON TEA.
Tills English Function Ha* Latterly Ma
terially Chanted.
It is the general complaint that both
at afternoon teas and at homes tho tea
is made disagreeably and j orniciously
strong. Formerly such a ccinplaint was*
never heard; a strong cup of tea was
the fashion; all liked it, ami thought
themselves ill treated if anything else
were offered them; now it is quite the
other way, and a hostess who stud it
the fashion erf tho day and tho taste:: ot
her guests makes a rule of a: king
whether weak or strong tea i ; preferred
before pouring it ont, and thin adding
hot water to taste, while others train
their servants, at some trouble to them
selves, to bring in tho tea ihe moment
it j.s made.
Now is tho time for some spirited
patentee to produce an invention that
could bo applied to our dear old silver
teapots or to modern china ones to hold
the tea leaves and prevent their sinking
to tho bottom of the teapot, and thus
brewing tho harmful solution that is ac
credited with bringing about such ill
effects. An approach to something of
this sort has bci n attempted in tho lit
tle Japanese teapots with china strain
ers, but these arc too small for largo
teapots, and something further, which
could bo adjusted to any sized teapot,
ia required.
Half past 4, or even 4 o’clock, is now
tho regulation tea hour, and when peo
ple a;:here to the old fashioned custom
of giwng 5 o’clock tea their friends re
gard it in the light of a grievance, es
pecially in . tho country, when, after a.
long drive or bicycle ride, the half
hour’s delay iu the accustomed tea hour
makes all the difference to exhausted
nature, for tea is allowed, oven by its
opponents, to have a “stimulating and
restorative effect on the constitution”
iu spite of the “subsequent depression”
and the “deleterious” results
Afternoon tea is now very justly
styled a meal, as so many substantial
things are given iu tho way of sand
wiches of many varieties, of petted
game and chicken, potted fish; also of
tomatoes, cucumber and cress, etc., iu
addition to hot scenes and tea cakes, or
muffins and buttered buns, rich cake,
iced and ornamented cukes, etc. Nut
oulv at large at homo teas are these
given, but at the usual afternoon draw
ing room, and, as a rule, the appetites
of tho guests are found equal to tho oo-
casi u.
The lateness of tho dinner hour is
doubtless tho excuse and the reason for
tho readiness shown to cat and enjoy
these dainties thus early in the after
noon. Bo this as it may, substantial
afternoon tea has become tho fashion,
and few wish it otherwise; occasionally
one comes across a man or a woman
who avers that lie or she never "touches
tea.” which in this case bears out the
medical strictures upon this beverage;
to some it is almost a poison, and to
others it is an unneces: ary luxury, not
to bo indulged in.—London Qu* ui.
Koiiir.ii Taste For the Country.
Hadrian’s “villa,” m ar Tivoli, which
was seven miles round, and D.u detian 's
“retreat,” tho ruins of which form the
town of Spalato, show the Homan taste
for the country run wild and grown
monstrous. After tho empire fell, for
awhile terror and iiiM emity drovv men
to slay iu towns when they could not
build for themselves fortified castles;
the antithesis of the villa. But with
tho first opportunity the old love reap
peared. In other countries the castio
gave birth to the exclusive country seat,
where tho great noble lived as a king
The town house, if there was one, was
a secondary affair; often tin re was none,
as is tho case to this day in Austria and
Hungary. In Italy, on the other hand,
there was a reversion to the Roman ar
rangemeut; tho house in the city was
tho most important, but it was supple
mented by more or less numerous, more
or less splendid, villas. Not to have
two houses was destitution; hence the
crown of villas around any eharaeteris-
ticully Italian town—Brescia or Vicenza
qr Trento.
Theuntravcled Italian looks in amaze
ment at tho well to do Englishman who
admits that ho has only one home. An
Italian “person of quality” who was
obligtd for the sake of economy to spend
all the year at his villa might complain,
as Drowning makes him complain, bnt
were he forced to pass la months in the
vaunted city square there would possi
bly bo suicide instead of sighs. This
tii;no tho poet, who dived deep in the
Italian mind, only brings to the surface
hi^lf a truth.—Contemporary Review.
j ' Faying For tho Honor.
I In China it is believed that people
flliould pay according to their means.
®he one barber in Peking who under
ands tho foreign mode of hairdressing
barges a foreign minister half a dol
lar, a secretary of legation tjf) cents and
an unofficial foreigner 10 cents. Natives
pay about half u cent for the same sen -
ice. So says Mr. Holcombe in his book,
"The Real Chinaman,” and he adds
his bit of personal experience:
In passing through Japan I once had
casiou to employ a Chinese chiropo-
ist residing there. His charges, so he
eclared, were cents to his fellow Chi
esc, 10 cents to an ordinary Japane-c
d half a dollar to all other foreigi
In the course 1 of tho conversation,
bile ho was at work, he said:
“I hear that our Chinese minister

horn he came to see?”
“Oh, yes,” said I, “ho came to call
I me. ”
“Then you must be an official,” said
e Chinaman.
■ I modestly admitted sucli to bo the
fyet, and tho conversation drifted to
other subjects. When the man’s labors

“DIED OF CHOLERA."
The History of Eighteen Graves In the
Country Churchyard at Sandy Hill.
In tho old graveyard of the Sandy
Hill district, iu the town of Dansville,
aro 18 graves, tho time stained stones of
which, below tho names and dates in
scribed thereon, bear the words, “Died
of Cholera.” Tho time covered by the
dates is from Aug. 24 to Sept. 5, 1834
—12 days. Tho settlement thereabout,
in 1834, was an isolated one among the
pines that then covered northern Steu
ben county, and composed of not more
than threescore souls. The story of how
it fell victim to the scourge that carried
one-third of its population away is told
by an old resident.
Among tho earliest settlers iu the
Sandy Hill district was John Brail, who
came with his wife and seven children in
1817 and began clearing up a farm. Ho
was a Pennsylvania German, eccentric,
but kindly and lovable. A physical pe
culiarity of this pioneer was that his
teeth were all double, every one of them
being sound when he died at tho ago of
‘JO. In 1834 a great many Germans be
gan settling in that part of Steuben
county. They came from New York up
the Hudson river to Albany, thence to
Buffalo by the Erie canal, and the rest
of tho way as they could.
In the su’: nu r of 1834 five Germans
came to tb 1 , ndy Hill district, where
they had purchased land of agents and
became guests of Brail. They had
walked from Buffalo, where they had
left their families. In the kindness of
his heart Brail sent teams to Buffalo to
fetch the latter in. Ho had a vacant
loghouso on his farm, which he placed
at tho disposal of tho emigrants until
they could put up houses on their laud.
Mrs. Brail helped some of the women
in washing clothes tho day they arrived.
That evening she was taken violently
ill and died in great agony tho next day,
Aug. 24. Doctors had been summoned
from Dansville. They said Mrs. Brail
had died of cholera morbus. Some of
her neighbors insisted that it was a case
cf malignant cholera and forbade a
public funeral. Mrs. Brail was buried
on Thursday. On Saturday two of her
daughters were prostrated with the dis-
or.:'.'. One of them died the same night.

as dizzy spells would cause falling. I had
severe palpitation, shortness of breath and

A Double Dinner.
A distinguished judge frequently
bring.-; f; i< nd,; home to dinner quite un-
expeeicdly. This habit is eertainly hos
pitable, but it is not popular with wives.
Guo court day tho genial judge in
vited a number of bis legal brethren to
rtino with him, serenely oblivions ot
the fact that his wife was totally un
prepared for such an incursion. The la
dy, however, was equal to the occasion,
bho did not fuss ami frown and make
things unpleasant all round. On tho
contrary, rhe accepted the summon
with a good grace and made the best
of it.
Tho modest meal was served ns
promptly us possible, and though itv, a-
not a sumptuous banquet it was at
least agreeable to gu» sts and host. Whc n
diaiier was over, just before leaving
the gentlemen to their wine and cigars,
tho lady rose and said:
“Gentlemen, I wish to say one word.
You have dined today with the judge;
will you do me the honor of dining to
morrow with me?”
A chorus of applause greeted this
speech, and next day the lady welcomed
her huisbaml’s frit mis to a dinner wort liy
of such an uccumplishertfcho.stcsB.—Lx-

Unciinvcnlloaal Trencher of St. Alban*.
The unconventional preacher at St.
Albans, llolborn, has been giving his
congregation some seasonable advice as
to tho kind of dinner parties they should
give. “Do not,” Father hi tan ton said
tho other day, “give dinners at 2 guin
eas a head to rich people who have
plenty of food at home and do not ap
preciate your attentions, but spend the
£’50 which tho dinner would cost you
on a feast to tho poor, who aro in want
of tho necessaries of life and who would
not say at tho end, ‘How thankful wo
are that this is over.’”—Westminster
Gazette.
Churches and Electric Light.
The congregation of sacred rites in
Romo was recently asked to decide
I whether electric lights could bo used
"for dissipating darkness and for in
creasing the exterior attractiveness ot
churches.” Its answer was us follows:
“For worship, no. Bnt for dispelling
darkness and illuminating churches
more brilliuutly, yes; with caution,
however, so that tho manner may not
j produce the appear unco of u theater.”
