We neat deliberately to free oMeelves from any such paralyzing prejudice, from the notion that there is an in- evitublo moral gravitation of human - toward the pit. There are two possible views of this word: One, that it is normally wholly bad, with occasional heaven sent gleams of goodness to throw its night into greater relief; the other, that it is nor- mally right, that wrong and sin are unnatural and that the trend of human- ity is upward and heavenward. The law of the moral world is such that neither of these views can be adopted as envoys absolutely true; there is no external law or force compelling tzs, In spite of ourselves, either TO BE GOOD Olt TO BE EVIL. Even more sublime limn the fact that the trend of mankind is forward and upward is the deeper fact that we aro kit ever free to choose what way life shall to. There is another natural law in mor- als that must be remembered; that is. that a man goes in the direction which he Is facing, he goes according to his faith. if he believes in the possibility et' goodness he perseveres In its way: if he believes in the inevitability of evil he submits to its way. \Ve are each making our own world, each determining whether it be letter o:• worse to -day than yesterday.

DRUG CURES ALL FAILED SAS'!S DR. J. C. DUNLOP. INSPECTOR FOR SCOTLAND. l:sperhnents Lit Institution for Inebriates -Delcitltou Has Reformed Many. .Drugs as cures for drunkenness are declared k) be useless, and even worse than useless, by 1)1.. J. C. Dunlop, in- spector for Scotland under the Inebri- ate., Act. "A specillc drug treatment," -.say's Dr. J)unlop, "was tried in one reformatory, llirgenti, but was found to be u com- plete failure. The experience gained by the trial of that treatment was c I value, because the re=sults were sullicl- e Tee conclusive. n 1t eptly definite to be drugs used were atropine, quinine, ei mnunium, sodium, and glome, a mix- ture much vaunted for the cure of in- ebriety. The Managers, desiring to try the effects of such treatment, ask- ed for inmates willing to submit to i1, and 22 volunteered rind underwent a full course. The result in every ease was failure, for everyone of the women Fc treated has since discharge selapsed into drunken habits. OTHER RESULTS.

Forty-seven per cent. of the patients discharged from the Invcrneith "licen- >'.ed retreat," where the inmates are all in good financial circumstances, rid self-supporting. have either given proof of recovery or promise to do so. and Dr. Dunlop regards this as very satis- factory. Results in the reformatories. where the Police Court habitues go, are not nearly so satlsfactory, however. Of all the cases That have completed their sentences and been discharged, rather less than one-fifth have been re - Seemed, and Dr. Dunlop Thinks that This rate is as high as ran be expected .so long as the cases dealt with remain o' the degraded tyle at present FOUND IN THE I4EFOR\iA'I'OBIC.S. where John seems to have spent the cksing years of his life. The passover here mentioned is the first of several specifically noted by John, and furnishes one of the important indications of lime from which, together with others, it is possible to ascertain, though with no great degree of certainty, the duration of Christ's public rnfnlslry as a whole, which is usually taken to have extended over the greater part of three years. 14.

Not only was the keeping of so many sheep and cattle and pigeons with- tu the outer enclosure of the eancluary out of keeping with the sacredness of the place, and ot.t of harmony with the spirit of worship, but the selfishness and c tetousness which had developed in (rennecllon with tliis traffic was such as to utterly secularize and vitiate the whole service cf religion which ostensibly was intended to foster. The evil was ugernvnled still more by the presence kit changers of money, who made a busi- -ness of cupplyin;f the Jewish temple coins In exchange for Greek and Roman money brought by worshipers from a d.slance, and who leek caro to make a profit on every transaction of this kind.

A piano is a very delicate instrument. anti requires careful treatment if its life is to be a long and useful one. A musi- cian gives our readers the following hunts, which are worth beating In mind: Never leave a piano in a damp room. Damp rusts beth strings and tuning - pegs. It also swells the felt on ham- sters and dampers, cat.sing the mechan- ism to move sluggishly. Do not place heavy loads of books or ornaments on top of a piano, otherwise it may retaliate by emitting dieeordanl sounds. For dusting the case use an old soft silk rag. Ruh the wood lightly, and in eno direction only. Polishing the keys with nlcohol will keep them clean. A piece of camphor placed inside the instrument will ward off the attacks of meths on the felt. In placing n piano in a room. the best way of tending its proper position is to move it about until the most satisfactory r'mults are obtained. There are no fixed riles on the subject. BROOD OF PYTHONS. Lively Young Family -First Instance of (latching in Captivity. Mose people know that vipers bring forth their young alive and that the corn - ,non English grass snake deposits its eggs to be hatched by the heat of de- caying matter, says the London Tribune.
