The same kind of a divi don which will occur among world ly men to -day if the bombshell o consecrated, Christina testimony can be hurled among them, ARE READY TO GiVE TESTIMONY? A practical application of this principle is now facing us, ono and all. Are we Christian men and Wo num ready to give our gospel testi- mony wherever, we go? Are WO ready to tell What Jesus Christ has done for es? Ready, even though it may bring . upon us sneers and ritlicule? Ready, though it should involve persecutions and ostracianl? Ready, as 'the young xnan of old was ready, 'who stood up and witnessed before the priests and the phari- sees, when he made a division. among them? Would that the dumb spirit would eolne out of the lay members in the Christian churches! Everywhere we hear the queStion being asked: "What is the matter with our churches?" Oh, no; the pulpit is not losing its power. . There are more consecrated ministers to -day than ever before. More brilliant and well developed heads and hearts are year- ly being trained in our theological seminaries than ever before. More eloquent sermons are being preached from the sacred desk on. this Sab- bath than on any Sunday of any other generation that ever lived. What, then, is the matter? The pulpit has not lost its old power, but the pew has abandoned its duty. The great defect, of the church to -day is that the pew has relegated to the pulpit nearly all its public duties, of preac,bing as well as public praying, as it has de- pended on" the choir for its singing. The result is that when the pew ceases to spealx, the message.of the pulpit is neglected. The pulpit of the Lord Jesus Christ is to -day. groaning under the weight of the infinite load which the pew has piled upon it. No church is to -day a consecrated evangelistic church un- less it has in its pews men who by life and testimony. are 1i-ream/ling evangelists as well as gospel. min- isters who stand behind the sacred desk. jesets Christ', is to -day speak- ing to the silent pews in the Way as he spake unto the dumb devil of old that was cursing the life of a young child. He said un- to him, "Thou dumb and deaf spir- it, come out of him and enter no more into him!" It is not the pul- pit that is dead; it is the pew which refuses to speak and there- fore has lost its power to Lsien. I SAVE viz NEARBY SINNERS Would that we might be willing to enter the homes ot our neighbors in the serviee of Jesus Christ, Suck an effort on our part not only is es- sential to their salvation, but it affects our standing in the kingdom of Christ. Do you not remembet that be said. "Every breath that beareth not fruit he taketh away ?" Yet how indifferent most of us are • in reference to the salvation of those sinners who are nearest our own doorstep. Some years ago an Ara- _ erican missionary was preaching in _ the streets of Calcutta. As the Anti erican clergyman was talking a Mo- hammedan priest stood near and began to inveigh against the incon- sistencies of the professors of the Christian religion. Then the Mo- luunniedrui. priest opened the and wbile he read he pointed to a drunken English sailor near by. Ile read out loud those beautiful and solemn words of Corinthians, which we repeat at the holy coramunion, "And after the same manner also he took the cup when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testa- ment in ray blood ; this do ye, as oft as ye drinl; it, in remembrance of me." Then the Mohammedan. priest, sneeringly and tauntingly said :— "Tbere is the white man's religion. Thera is the white man drunk. Will ye Imre any such religion as that?" Oh, my brother, we rightly send forth our missionaries into foreign lands to testify of Jesus Christ. Shall we not also try to carry the testimony of Jesus eto the drunken and dissipated white men at our owe doors that they may be living witnesses,of the power of the gospel and not a reproach to it. Shall we not. also carry the gospel, to our neighbors, to those who may be living, farther away from Christ than the cannibals or the Eskimos ? Shall we not be willing -to kneel in prayer in our neighbors' parlors fits well as send missionaries to preach standing upon the muddy banks of the Ganges ? Would that the dumb lips of Chris- tian testimony might be opened in the store and on the street, in, the factory and by the cashier's desk ; opened when you are tying up a bundle ; opened when you are tak- ing CIOW12 the goods from off the shelf ; opened when you are bidding the little cashgirl good night ; open- ed when you are giving the ',last in- structiong to your foreman ; opened in the same way as were the lips of a poor old one arxned black man who, while he cleaned my shoes on Pennsylvania 'avenue, in our na- tional capital, taught me one of the mightiest lessons of trust and paith in God I ever learned ! TELL ABOUT THE HEALERS. Furthermore, you should not hesi- tate to testify for Christ in your place of business, beeause you would not have dumb lips in reference ,to any physical cure which you knew about as you now are silent in re- ference to the divine cure of sin.

This nmn was instructed in the way tif the Lord, and, being fervent in the Spirit, he slake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. He was filled with what be knew and did the best he could with what he had, urging people to repent and turn to God and bring forth fruits worthy of repentance (Luke ii, 8, 8). It was all goo(' and real as Ira - as it went, and such an earnest, faithful worker is sure of more light, for his heart was whole toward God, and on behtdf of such God will surely show Himself strong (II Chron. xvi, 9). 26.. Whom when Aquila and Pris- cilla had heard they took him unto them and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly. They had doubtless been greatly helped by Paul. at Corinth, and now they are able to help Apollos from Alexandria, So Alexandria in. Egypt and Corinth, or, rather, Italy, come together at Ephesus on the Lord's business, and thus ne works, send- ing Eis messengers hither and thither and causing lives to meet and touch for mutual benefit in His service. It is a great and comforting truth that His good pleasure which He hath purposed in Himself is ever bailee wrought out after the counsel of His awn will (Eph. i, 9, 11), and there is perfect peace to all who abide in that will.

Linder the auspices of the munici- pal authorities of Temesvar, in Hun- gorY, an. annual draw for ugly wives was wont to take place. The ladies were, • of course, well gilded, the amount Of money that each brought with her being in inverse proportion to her good looks. Thus extremely deformed, or exceptionally ugly, wo- men carried with them, sometimes as much as $250, while such as barely attained the requisite standard of hideousness had less than as many shillings with which to start house- keeping. These prizes, which were provided through the liberality of a nobleman living in the neighborhood, ceased, uufortunately, at his death. Before now a bride's dowry has been regulated•by her bodily weight; by which means a woman, whose ex- cessive avoirdupois would otherwise have precluded any chance of her being sought in marriage, has escap- ed the dire prospect of becoming an old maid. In the spring of last year a damsel living at lioniggratz, whose unpleasing person forbade all letee of suitors, was found a home and a husband through her father's pro- mising to dower her with her own, weight in silver currency, A young man came forward and accepted the offer, and, as the lady brought down the .scale at 1551b., received with hie bride 13,000 kronen ($2,810). To attract suitors for the hand of his daughter, who had the misfor- tune to possess but one leg, a Rouen manufactexer gave out that he would -peovicle her on her weelding,,- day with a golden limb.

Our world is spinning through settee at a speed of over 1,000 trines a minute, says an astrollOmer. Should it coma into collision. with a. globe of equal size going at the same rate At speed, what would he the result? The -very best thinkers of the, age tell us that heat enough would be generated 'by the shock to transfoim both of the Colliding bodies into gigantie balls of vapor many times their present circum- ferences. Some have thought that, in case the Center of the earth is composed of solid and colder mat- ter than is the generally accepted be- lief, this might not be the case; but after searchiag all the leading au- thorities.it must be adraitted that there cannot be found a more ap- propriate "finis" than the follow- ing, which is from an eminent scien- tist: Should such an unheard of event occur, the ,heat generated would be sufficient to melt, boil, and completely vaporize a mass of ice fUlly 700 times the bulk of both the colliding. worlds — in other words, an ice -planet 150,000 miles in diam- eter.
