against gambling be respected, he invariably shrugged his shoulders and intimated that the police magistrates, the police constables, probably the Mayor, or in fact any one except himself, were the

the most minute details as to where they are and by what subtle passages they can be reached, yet not one of them has been raided, although they exist expressly against the by-laws of the city and the laws of the country.Evidently there is a screw loose somewhere, and a \u2018Witness\u2019 representative set to work to find where it was.The peint to be decided was: On whom devolved the duty of seeing that the laws against gaming are enforced?It having been hinted that the Mayor was the one to blame, that gentleman was first interviewed.After the matter had been explained to him he said.\u2018The duty certainly does not devolve upon me.What can I do?The police are not under my control.When complaints are made to me against gambling hells I at once send the complainants to see the.Chief of Police; for certainly he is the proper person to see that gambling heHs are abolished, as is shown by the following city by-law: \u2018Sec.3.Every description cf gaming, and all playing of cards, \u2018dice, or other games of chance, with betting, and all cock-fightiig and doz- ng are hereby prohibitedzand x; An any hotel, restaurant, tavern, ian, or shop, either Ncensed or unTicensed, in this said city; and any person found guilty of gaming, or playing at cards, or any other game of chance, with betting, in any hotel, restaurant, tavern, inn, or shop, licensed or unlicensed, in this sald city, shall be subject to the penalty hereinafter provided.\u2018Sec.4 In order the more effectually to repress the offences above specified, every police officer or constable.is hereby authorized to enter such and cvery s1op.hotel, dram-shop, tavern, bguse, or place of public entertainment within the said city, and to arrest therein, on vew, any person or persons found guilty of the offences aforesaid.\u2019 Judge Dugas was next seen and did not mince matters Mn the least.He said, \u2018If the Chief of Police so desired, he could close every gambling house in Montreal and he would have law on his side in so doing.The law is very clear cn the matter and any one can understand it.\u2019 .The judge then read the folowing from the new Criminal Code: \u2014 ; \u2018If the chief constable or deputy chief condtable of any city or town, or other nificer authorized to act in his absence, reports in writing to eny of the commissioners of police or mayor of such city or town, or to the public magistrate >t any town, that there are good grounds for belleving, and that he does believe, that any house, room or place within the sald city or town Is kept or used as a common gaming or betting house as defined in Part xiv.sections one hun- ired and ninety-six and one hundred and ninety-seven, or is used for the purpose of carrying on a lottery.or for \u2018he sale of lottery tickets, contrary to the provisions of Part xv., section two hundred amd five, whether admission thereto is limited to those possessed bf entrance Keys or otherwise, the sald commissioners or commissioner, or mayor, or the eald police magistrate may, by order in writing, authorize the thief constable, deputy chief constable ar other officer as aforesaid, to enter iny such house, room or place, with such constables as are deemed requisite by the chief constable, deputy chief con- table or other officer, and, if necessary, \u2018à use force for the purpose of effect- ng such emtry, whether by breaking pen doors or otherwise, and to take ndo custody all persons who are found herein, and to seize, as the case may #2 (1) afl tables and instruments of gam- ng, and all momeys and securities for raney, or (2) all instruments or devices \u201cr the carrying on of such lottery, and bl lottery tickets found in such house Ww Dremises.\u2018The expression \u2018\u2018chief constable\u201d in- tudes chief of police, city marshal or \"er head of the police force of any LT, town or place.\u2019 \u2018Now what is simpler than that ?ask- rl the judge.\u2018It means that all the hief hag to-do is to send us a written Tro\u2018aint that he has reasons for be- leving that a gambling house exists in : certain place, then we issue a warrant Td the place is raided.No great anger in that.Any policeman could *nd a complaint.I assure you I am Zainst these brazen gambling houses,\u2019 \u201chinued the judge, earnestly.\u2018It is \u2018leed @ shame thatthey should be al- Uwed to exist as they do.\u2019 It will be remembered that when Ma- Oney¥ was hustled out of his den on St.\u201cawrence street by Detective Carpenter, Eh constable and others, he pron à Joud voice that his resort ad been entered illegally and that he * many hours quoting from books and tTy- ing Se convimce the judge that the arrests had been illegally made.The re- result of ell this plead ng must have filled the gamblers with apprehension, as the judge Handly ruled that an offence was #2id to Fave heen committed, and the supposed offenders were before him and all he hed to do was to try the case.The dire revenge that Maloney threatened to have on the city is yet in abeyance.What a lovely state of affairs it is when gamblers can terrify the Chief of Folice and th: 350 men he has control of by shouting, \u2018If you Touch me you will will sue the city.\u2019 À nen the Chief of Police of Chicago © few days ago raided the gambling dens he did mot instruct his men to first make gure theit none of the keepers would sue the city if they were made to stop their unlawful business.A well-known lawyer said yesterday.\u201cThe gamblers have got on to this racket that the Chief of Police wil not run the risk of raiding their pleces and they are becoming pole every day.en all know that gambling a { against the law and it should be stoped.It certainly is a remarkable sight to see the press exposing these places and then to see the podice pase them with the utmost unconcern.Something is wrong, eure.\u201d rer NOTES AND NOTICES.Miss Hollinshead will

public memory.One or two good votes cannot be permitted to condone the evil done by a dozen iniquitous ones.A fow sharp lessons in the present campaign may save the city hundreds of thousands of dollars in the future.An for honest government, should feel that they will be rewarded when settlement day comes ; and those who are tempted to boodle must be made to understand that the public conscience does not sleep ; that their sin will find them out, and that the punishment for civic rascality is civie death.If the electors will but go to the polls and show their strength, they will deal a blow at boodledom which will be remembered for years to come.It is a curious comment om the wonderful systematizing of Bible study which is the fashion nowadays that children who are aecidentally kept from Sunday- school to-mogrow will lose the only chance in fourteen years of hearing trom their.\u2018teaçher the history of Noah and |i the flood.It 18 seven years since tals point was touched before, and it will be seven years before it will be reached again.The lListory of two thousand years is compressed into this one lesson, and the child that misses it in consequence misses a great deal.Seriously, however, the illustration which we have used shows clearly what folly it is to suppose that children can obtain any adequate knowledge of the Bible in the Sunday-school., The Sunday-school is a noble institution, with many uses ; but Bible stories must be taught in the home nursery or they will never be the force in the child\u2019s life that they were intended to be, or that they have been in past generations.to rls Only because it is demanded in the name of justice do we print to-day Dr.Chiniquy\u2019s hideous recital of the iniquities which, as he avers, drove him from the Roman Catholic Church.As for the truth of his allegations we would fain believe them works of imagination, but every word here told was, over and over again, during the lifetime of the persons involved, published as widely as Dr.Chiniquy was able to circulate them.They were, from a legal point of view, libels' against those persons of the deepest dle, yet no -legal or legitimate steps were ever- taken to prove him a slanderer.We have, in the mode of the attack upon Dr.Chiniquy, appalling evidence of the graceless and helpless malice which is to this day entertained in certain quarters t -ard him.If anything were lacking to suggest that the \u2018Minerve\u2019s\u2019 articles are of clerical origin, it is found in the strange delight with which a priest, writing from the west to the \u2018Minerve,\u2019 gloats over the garbage heap.On the other hand, it is fair to say that no Ône can believe that many priests are as nasty as that writer.The \u2018Minerve,\u2019 instead of publishing Dr.Chiniquy\u2019s letter of vindication against its former slanders, fills half a column with the most satanic and disgusting misrepresentations of it.\u2014 What can be more depressing than to have good laws unenforced by men who are paid to compel their enforcement ?If what Judge Dugas and the Mayor say is true, one cannot but be Impressed with the idea that the Chief of Police is \u2018largely, if not wholly, respofisible for the non-enforcement of the law against gambling.Owing to the lax administration of the law, gambling .houses openly flourish not a stone\u2019s throw from the office of the Chief of Police.It would be foolish for the Chief to say that he does not know of the existence of such illegal places ;.s0, to clear himself from the suspicion of neglect of duty, he gays it in dangerous to disturb the A honest minority in the Council, fighting | DAILY WITNESS.X 1 \u2018peace f, the, virer resorts lest \u2018the {Pets \u201cREbflers rise in \u2018thel¥ \u201cwrath and bring actions for damages against the city.Was there ever a more humiliating spectacle than to see keepers of gambling dens successfully holding officers at bay from enforcing the laws against them on the threat of punishing by law those who dare to do their duty ?Will .Chief Hughes .condescend to explain how the gamblers can do this ?It is im- \u2018possible that such a ridiculous reason \u2018can really be the cause why the head of police allows gambling to exist in the brazen manner that it does to-day.In Toronto such a state of affairs would not be tolerated.twenty-four hours, and there \u2018is no reason why it should in this city.In New York it has become intolerable, but there the explanation is simple enough.The gamblers bribe the police, from the commisioners down.It stands to reason that the Chief of Police must have some more weighty reason than the one stated for not taking some action against these resorts, and the public has u right to know wnat It is.\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE VOTERS\u2019 LISTS.The Mayor has pointed out an abuse which is on the very face of our voters\u2019 lists, to which no attention seems ever to have been paid.In fact, previous to the movement led by Mr.Ames there \u2018seems to have been no interest taken by \u2018anyone in having the voters\u2019 lists cor- .rect.or protected from probable abuse.It was, indeed, to the interest of those who scrutinized the lists most closely.namely, the traffickers in elections, that they should de as loose as possible.The defect pointed out by the Mayor is a very obvious one.A man ha® no legal -right to cast more than one vote for mayor ; yet, so far as appears on the ; lists, he may vote in every ward where he has a vote for alderman, apd we have authoritative assurance that there is -no way of striking off his name from the \u2018lists on which it appears.We need no lawyer to tell us this, so long as the same lists are used for aldermanic and for \u2018mayoralty votes.But why should, not \u2018the lists be so arranged that the place \u2018of a man\u2019s mayoralty vote will be indicated upon them ?It would ve a very simple thing, and, although it would.involve' a ood deal of clerical labor, -would be worth it, to indicate the mayoralty vote with a star opposite the name on the list.So long as this is not done good men can, by a little care, be prevented from voting twice, but there is little or no protection against dishonest Notes.Hitherto a still greater abuse \u2018has existed.Many a man was regis- \u2018tered at two different poll: in-one- \u201card, \"Hb could not, without incurring reproach, go and take out his ballot at both polls, even if he did not use ome, while if he neglected one he simply offered a premium for impersonation.Only a very himself at a number of polls for the purpose of having his vote expunged, and he had even then no guarantee that the assurance he thus gave that he was not going to take out the ballot would not be used to get someone else to do it.Mr.Ames has, we hope, succeeded in getting all this class of duplicates removed from the.lists.\u2014\u2014 .THE NEW FORCE.It is naturally a matter of speculation among politiclans whether the Protestant Protective Association movement will tell more against the Conservative or the Liberal party.It is\u2019 said to have drawn more members from the ranks of former Conservatives, from which it has also chosen its principal leaders.Mr.Dalton McCarthy is to be its leader in Domin- fon politics, and Doctor Ryerson in Ontario provincial politics.Mr.McCarthy has completely severed his connection with the Dominion Conservatives, and has declared war to the knife against the National Policy, or what remains of it.Mr.McCarthy declares that protection has worked evil and only evil all the days of its life.Then the policy, or lack of policy, of the Government in regard to the burning educational questions of the day is an abomination to Mr.McCarthy.The Third party leader, though avowedly opposed to the Liberal party, has-certainly aided them in, their fight against protection and for tariff reform, and as that is the leading practical issue of the day he will find it hard to defeat the Conservative Government at the polls without aiding the Liberal opposition, if the Government, as it seems determined to do, maintains protection, while merely pretending to reform the tariff.But the other leader chosen by the Protestant Protective Association, Dr.Ryerson, is in full accord with the provincial Conservative leader, Mr.Meredith, who is\u201d supposed still \u201cto be a supporter of the Thompson Government, in which he has been expected at times to accept a portfolio.Mr.Meredith is lying low and saying ne- thing at the present time, but whether this is because, while not prepared to head the new movement, he is not altogether in accord with the old party, can only be guessed.\u2018It is probable that the Conservatives hope that the Protestant Protective Association will spend itself in a successful effort in conjunction with the Patrons of Industry to overthrow that rock of twenty years, the Mowat Government, and that by the good citizen would go round and report\u2019 4 if it be the latter, 1s worth being practised.\u2018mage has never failed when \u2018York to keep his tabernacle full, and his SATURDAY, JANTARY 27.18071 Zz will be moribund.Its thorough organi- | zatibri Weems to discourage that hope.It is curious to notice, too, that the two provincial members elected are both old Reformers, more in accord with Sir Oliver Mowat's Government than with the Conservative Opposition in the Provin- clal Assembly.tlre , GO FOR THE MASSES.| How to bring the masses into closer | contact with the Church of Christ is problem that is always with us in there | days.Essays are written, discussions | held, sermons preached, and countless letters written with a view to solving the problem, but the solution seems as far away as ever.The importance and urgency of the problem keeps it prominently to the front, refusing to allow the consideration of it to sink into silence.We believe that the talking and writing has been out of proportion to the doing in the matter.There is a tendency in \u2018 our time to shelve troublesome questions: with ingenious theories and strong resolutions, without patient labor to test.the value of the theories in practice and to carry the resolutions into effect.A | little more doing and a little less talk- : ing on the part of members of the Church would help immensely in bridging the chasm between the Church and the masses.Mr.Moody is reported to have said, when appealed to for his opinion as to the best way of reaching the masses, \u2018Go for them.\u2019 His laconic response touches the root of the question.From a New Testament point of view it: is little short of folly to expect unregenerate men and women to rush in eager haste to our churches.The carnal mind is enmity to God and his Word.Loving compulsion is necessary to the overcoming of that enmity.The command of the Master to his servants is to go - out to the highways and hedges and compel the invited guests to come in to the Gospel feast.This command seems to be strangely forgotten in the babel of the controversy about reaching the: masses.A revival of remembrance\u2019 might lead \u2018to a revival of obeying.Dr.Chalmers, who was an authority in his day on means and methods to reclaim the lapsed, was always careful to divide churches into two classes.Some churches were, said he, merely attractive, while others were aggressive.By attractive : churches he meant those which drew to\u2019 them people suited by their services and teaching ; but the aggressive churches went out to the highways and byways, taking with them the message, machinery and organization best adapted for the ingathering of strayed sheep.The \u2018disfinction#has not lost its force in our day.Too many churches rest content with being attractive ; too few push out into the aggressiveness of endeavor which is baptized with the blessing of Him who came to seek and to save the lost.The first step in solving the problem of reaching the masses is to solve the problem of the purpose of the Church.Is it a kind of ecclesiastical club, or is it a missionary organization to turn human activity into the path of the highest endeavor ?If it be simply the former, it does well to cater to the wants of those drawn to its fellowship ; but it is recreant to its duty if it does not arouse in its members a sense of thelr responsibility in reaching the unreached.The trouble lies, to | a large extent, in the fact that the religion of to-day is too much a religion of proxy.We pay other people to do for us what we ought to do for ourselves.Miseion-halls, missionaries and Bible- women are good enough in their own place, but paying for them does not fulfil the emphatic and individual command, \u2018Go ye.\u2019 Personal service and contact | will tell far more powerfully on the men outside of our churches than the thousand and one schemes devised by ecclesiastical experts.The old way is far ahead of any new way,\u2014go out arfd compel them to come in.The loving compulsion of personal touch and invitation will succeed in winning the lapsed to church attendance when all other methods fail.It is too good a solution of the problem to be simply talked about.It Try it, and try it at once.The failure of Dr.Talmage's church to meet its expenses is a fine commentary on attractive preaching.No one ever succeeded in holding the popular ear like Dr.Talmage.His sermons are corrus- cations of brilliant fireworks, and they draw.For twenty-five years Dr.Tal- in New sermons are in demand the world over.We have been frequently found fault with and the \u2018Witness\u2019 has at times been dropped because we did not make a practice of printing these sermons.Surely, if ever a church did a flourishing business in the attraction line his has done so.Yet the result seems to be that at the end of a quarter of a century it cannot make both ends meet.Not only has it not been a centre from which rivers of wealth flowed out to the perishing world, it has not been even able to sustain itself.It has been a rendezvous of religious tramps seeking amusement, and caring so little for the cause of God that they have not only done nothing to help others but have been too mean to pay for what they got.We are not hers referring to the noble time the

J.P.Clarke, worthy foreman; B.Feeney, recording and financial secretary; C.Lauer, past master workman; T.Dixon, treasurer; J.Storey, almomer; M.Fallon, statistician; delegates to District Assembly 18, B.Feeney, L.Breen, and J.Storey.A vote of thanks was tendered the retiring officers for the able and efficient manner in which they had conducted the business of the Assembly.Through their efforts the assembly ranks as one of the foremost in the city, their motto being like their name \u2018Progress.\u2019 CHAMBRB DB COMMERCE.The Chambre de Commerce held {ts usual weekly meeting yesterday after- | noon.Mr.L.E.Morin presided and the other members present were Messrs.C.H.Catelli, G.Boivin, L.E.Geoffrion, A.Amour, J.D.Rolland, H.Laporte, J.B.A.Lanctot, J.X.Perrault, J.H.Peller- in, J.Forbes, J.Haynes.The committees on the settlement of insurance wsses and on the rental of \u2018the new chambre premises reported.Both were progressing, especially the latter, which had arranged for a new place of accommodation on St.James street, simi- \u2018ar to that of the Board of Trade.The Juestion of the city\u2019s assets and liabili- les occupied the council's attention, ana was discussed at length.Finally, the matter was postponed until after the elections.The law in connection with private banke was brought up, but it des was left over until after the elec- ona.AN ELECTRIC CLUB.A number of the youth of the electric fraternity met at Neo.6 Richmond avenue.on Thursday evening, the re- Suit being the organization of the Montreal Junior Electric Club.The young Men showed much enthusiasm in the matter and are worthy of commenda- ica in this effort to advance them- ves in the knowledge and practice vf electrictty.The election of officers resulted as follows: \u2014E.W.Sayer, president;

the responsibility is divided and the ease with which this is done encourages rather than checks maladministration.Upon the whole not much of positive value is to be learned from an examination of American checks.it {8 rauni tion i In Montreal it is quite clear that we have no checks whatever upon either the legislative or administrative acts of our Council.The Mayor has no veto, there is no second chamber, there tg no county council, no local government board, no direct veto by the people.We merely have the power to eject aldermen after,it may be, incalculable wrong has been done.The result of this complete absence of checks is geen in hasty and uncontrolled legislation and administration.Enterprises of great pith and moment and any one of which would consume weeks of deliberation on the part of any other | legislature are under the impulses of more or less secret influences rushed through with appalling haste.Let citizens roflect on the hasty manner in which the Street Railway contract, the Royal Electric contract, the incinerator deal, and latterly .the scheme for a new east end station have been rushed through the Council, and the need of a check upon reckless hasty legislation becomes alarmingly apparent.The brief sketch of Continental and British systems may furnish valuable suggestions if an attempt to supply -this radical defect is made.It is to be feared that neither dual chambers thor a mayor with vetoing powers will prove ade- | quate.If we turn once more to Europe we may find in the valleys of Switzer land a people who are sovereign and whose tranquil annals and orderly government, though they make no grea stir, may be studied with profit, a land where the people closely regard all ad- minitration and legislation, and themselves conserve and wield the veto power.France, Germany amd England ail |.possess systems of which central administrative checks are special features.It may be that the adoption of these, combined wéth the power of veto im thé control of the people, will supply the most effective control.ROBERT STANLEY WEIR.pe A WELL-KNOWN WRITER DEAD.New York, Jan.27.\u2014Private cable despatches announce the death in Venice on Tuesday of Miss Constance Fenimore Wodisen.She was born in New Hamp- ssire im 1848.Her mother was Hannah Cooper Pomery, a niece of James Feni- more Cooper.Miss Woolson removed in early youth to Cleveland, O., and was elucated at a seminary there.After her father\u2019s death in 1869 she began contributing poems, sketches and stories to various publications, her first story, \u2018The Happy Valley,\u201d appearing in \u2018Harper's Magazine\u2019 for July, 1870.In 1873 she went with her mother to St.Augustine, Fla., and remained five years.Her mother died in 1879 and in the same year Miss Woolson went to England.She vistted this country only once afterward, her time being spent mainly in Italy, Germany and Switzerland.Miss Woolson's first productions in book form were two collections of short tales, published in 1875 and 1880, entitled \u2018Castle Nowhere, and \u2018Rodman, the Keeper; Southern Sketches.In 1882 she pub-.l¥shed \u2018Anne.\u2019 \u2018For the Major\u2019 was published -in 1883, and was followed by \u2018Bast Angels\u2019 in 1885, and \u2018Jupiter Lights\u2019 in 1889.Besides these works, she was the author of a number of serial stories in the magazines.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 MORE SIBERIAN PRISON ABUSES.London, Jan.27.\u2014A St.Petersburg despatch to the \u2018Chronicle\u2019 says that fresh l'æht has been thrown upon the Siberian prison system by a visit of the Governor ~f the Amur provinces to Nickolaivsk.He found the condition of that prison :ndescribably bad and reports that the rrisoners never receive warm food, and \"hat the sanitation is deplorable.The inspector of the prison lives at Vladivos- \u201cxk and delegates his duties to a common soldier.If \u2018his state of things exists, says the despatch, in one of the \u2018Atest and largest prisons of Eastern Si- Héria it Is easy to imagine what happens in the mining districts of the north.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014r UNITED STATES PATENTS TO CANADIAN INVENTORS.The following list of United States patents to Canadian inventors, granted Jan.16, 1894, is reported by Mr.James >anzster, patent attorney, Buffalo, N.Y.: (ré-concentrator or mineral saving ma- \u201cene.Thos.Davidson, Mount Brydges, *nada;

I have known too many earnest people, Uving Christ-lives, who are no church-goers, or be- leng to some heterodox sect, and too many regular churoh-goers who.know nothing apparently of God, to make that a test.It is tha absence of any ideal, any real purpose, or atm in life beyond spending all their money on self-gratification that distresses me.Don\u2019t think they are dreadful.I daresay they are quite equal to the average young man.They like us both very well, I think; they are pleasant company at meals, especially Joe, who is fairly well-read, not deeply, perhaps, and has a quick appreciation of humor and good things in literature, that makes him a pleasant companion.But for ali that.I do not believe that either would put himself out a hair-breadth for any one living-\u2014es far as I can see.Some day a girl will come to each, for whom he will do mare Be he has ever supposed it possible, 1 hope.here's the problem: gre we influencing dom PERE IR TL { Only brightest looks and tendeÿest words were .dressed by their Christian name, and in guch wise in their case to touch on religious ! topics they are always out all evening and away all day; but, anyway, it would do no good.There's that theory current, you know (with another half-comical look), that if you just keep your drawing-room bright and warm, are not afraid of wearing out Your carpets, and have plemty of music and good reading, why the young men will never want to 50 out.Perhaps.But in our case they have all of thege in addition to Fred's and my 80- clety (the latter after he ohildren are in bed).Fred.thinks it 13 only natural, even with the best of homes, that a young man should want to see a bit of the world (Just how much that means I am not sure), and 1 daresay it ig true.Now al! this was in my mind when I wes reading ebout \u2018Gilchrist\u2019 and his sister, as well.as about \u2018Star\u2019 and \u2018Herbert.In each case, along with the desire to benefit, there was great Æffection, perhaps that is what is lacking in this case.I wonder what I ought to do, or whether I should feel anxious about them, and responsible for them.Anyway, I am glad to tell you all; it scarcely seems anything when said though.\u2019 I had no experience from which to answer my friend.I knew well that the young fellows, without being remarkable in any way, were far from being what one would hope one's sons to be, and I was inclined to think there is a limit to the extent to which we are our, brother's keépérs, but I am af«aid I am not taking a high view of things.Is it wonth while

simple gound of it, ana slips so giibly from the tongue, that perhaps it may s#em out of place in connection with the plain, common word \u2018every-day,\u2019 and, perhaps, that is shother reason why etiquette, meaning good mianners.is reserved for something better, shall 1 say, than every-day occuryences.But it i4- everyday etiquette as it should be observed\u2019 in every home that we are going to talk-abour now.And really, why should thery be any difference between our manners gt home, among our néagest friends, and thet which we assume towards strangers?Why this is I cannot tell, but most of you will agreb with me that it is very often sadly true; êur manner to those within the four wallg- of our home is different to that used among stra- 5s, #nd 1 am sure you wik quite as readily | agree with me when Y say this should not be.~ If there must be a better, gentler side to our pature; it should ba éhowt to those at home, end not whally reserved for those abroad.Take, for imetance, \u2018the opsidact of the average husband ahd\u2019 wife towatds \u2018each other.Not so many years agû the wife lockedl upon this man as the embodiméüt o£ her ideal.\u2018fhought good enough

\u2018he\u2019 or \u2018John.\u2019 Bo gommon has this mode of Address become, that we never question \u2018when we hear a woman say.\u2018he\u2019 gays this, or \u2018he\u2019 did that.We always know at ence that the \u2018he\u2019 refers to her husband.This custom is not conflneq t0 women who live in out-of-the-way primitive parts of the couniry, who have glimpses of the social life outside, or beyond their faraway home, only from an occasional magazine or paper, but we often hear women, moving in the best society, whose advantages and education, if nothing more, should insure better judgment, guÿty of the same thoughtlessness.A woman who values her hugband\u2019's dignity will not consider it a trifling matter whether or not she upholds this dignity with the most scrupwjous care by always addressing him with courtesy and speaking of him with respeot.Only to her brothers and sisters, and , most intimate friends should she speak of him as \u2018Henry\u2019 or \u2018John, to all

apd in placés where the usage will be in good taste.How very often we hear prominent business men, or men in high office in elty or government, familiarly, yes, vulgarly spoken of, or ad- cases, we almost invariably notice that this man does not receive the same respect from colleagues and Inferjors as another does who is always known by his surname.This error, though it may seem insignificant at-first, in later Ilfé proves a source of great annoyange to kay men, and it can invariably be \u201ctraced fo a \"disregard of everyday etiquette in the home, With equal thoughfulness should the

of husband and wife towards each other, which makes the home life so delightful.In oold, undemonstrative families, everyday etiquette is often ignored, and the pleasant custom of friendly greeting is something foreign to their lives.Only to strangers and those outside the home circle is the genlal good morning and tender good night spoken, while a cuaint or a half inaudible murmur 18 congidered

wish to\u2019 lecture about Jie sort of people we should have as friends.In @ great many cases we do not select our friends, we accept them, ready-made, and\u2014they love us, and we love them.I think that to one who has lived a true self-sacrificing, self-reverencing life, ready to do one's duty when that duty is recognized as such, suitable friends will be provided for them all the way through life.\u2018What we can choose and make, is, not the friend, but opportunity for contact.When the contact happens, something higher than our will chooses for us.\u2019 May I ask, what is our duty by those who seek our friendship?Am I right In suggesting that we abcept this desirè es a proof of disposition suitable for the foundation of an abiding friendship?I think in the vast majority of cases we might humbly thank God that he has judged us worthy.of this gift of tender hu love and sympathizing friend: ship.\u2018 These thoughts have been haunting me for tome time, and in studying my bible the other day, I paused at the words, \u2018Thine they were, and thou gavest them me.\u2019 If Christ could thus speak of his disciples, how much more should we appreciate God's gifts to us of friends and kindly aspociates.'We needs must love the lighest when we see it, Not Launcelot, nor another.\u2019 _ Ya it- the highest (best) we love, or is it that whioh is most in hermony with our own natures?The following sentiment is, to me, at least, peculiar: ° \u2018Had I a lover Who was noble and free, I would he were nobler Than\u201d to love me.I think it would he more natural te yi to be worthy of the noble loved \u2018by endeavor G 8° asc.than to shrink in weakness from the attempt.to be worthy of the nablest we may meet.\u2019 If there is sufficient harmony between fwo natures to allow the relation of lovers to be: assumed, there must alsa be equality dof mental capacity to ensure enduring capabilities of mutual appreciation and sympathy.To return to the subject under discussion.If there is no aversion on one .slde, and warmth on the other, the fact that a tender, loving soul cares for you, and thinks kindly of you, should rouse gratitude im you, and a warm emotion also.We, in this department, have talked a great deal about \u2018Woman's Work,\u201d and now I want to ask, are we doing the work which God would have ug do, as he would have it done?Is there no where some heart that, by silent bonds of sympathetic harmony between your natures, God has made dependent on you, that is waiting for you to do your duty by it?Are you ready in utter self-forgetfulness to do that which God means you shall do?\u2018What is the secret of your life?asked Mrs.Browning of Charles Kingsley, \u2018tell me, that I may make mine beautiful too.!

The girl was just twenty.She had been at school for the last ten years; had studied everything she wanted to, and several things she did not care for; had come with a trunk- ful df pretty gowns and half a dozen dainty hats and vells to spend the summer in a suburban town, far from her home, which was in the South.It had always heen enough for this girl to be allve and to be happy.Her sweet looks and hor sweet ways had been so pleasing to her father and mother, her brothers and cou- sing that she never felt the need of trying to do them any good.When at school, the same pretty ways and sweet looks had made her popular, and it did not occur to her that she was to exert an influence on her companions.It probably never does occur to a rose or a pansy that it has any duty in the matter of being fragrant and attractive.It simply JIves Its life.In the summer home, however, Girlie, as her father liked to call her, found that everybody was on the qu! viva to help everybody else.Her aunt and her girl cousins all had thelr work among the poor, or they read to sick people, or taught in Sunday-school.Two cousing were very much interested in a work- ing-girls\u2019 club, a hundred girls gathered from a factory in the hottest part of the town.\u201c The club met evenings, and the young ladies of the place, dressed in the severast possible gowns of calico In summer, of serge in winter, with white aprons and caps.like maids, took turns in entertalning their friends.\u2018It\u2019s surprising,\u2019 said one cousin to Girlie, \u2018that we can make no irnpression on those poor things, no matter how we try.Thay wear the same tawdry Imitation lace and \u2018baste Jewellery, they have tralling dresses in the street, and their hats are covered with cheap flowers.Our example does not count.\u2019 Girlle only laugh2d.Then she said, with her eoft Southern drawi, \u2018They don't care for your capsjand your aprons.It's all a sham, It doesn\u2019t impress them be- ¢ause It fsn\u2019t sincere.\u2019 It happened one evening that the programme Girlie veung solo, or give a recitation.It ended in her doing both.She went in her pretty white wool gown, with pale lilac hews here and there, her dress so rich, so maidenly, so pe- The girls clapped thelr hands and applauded her They crowded around her and begged her ta come and teach one of the elasses on Sunday.Girlie was persuaded.She said she knew 80 little herself that she would have to study very: hard, When Sunday came she dressed in her pretty, dainty tailor-made gown, her simple sailor hat, her gray gloves.From head to feet she was like gn exquisite flower, but not & puff, nor frill, mer ruffle wag su- perflyous, nor could one have been spared.The girls listened to her and looked at her.In six months you would not have known them for the same met; thelr taste was.quieter, thelr gowns were simpler, more refined, less pretentious; their hats lost the load of flowers and feathers.Girlle was imitated in her speech, her manners, her exterior; she had set \u2018a geod example, THE WOMAN'S.CAUSE IS MAN'S.There is no other proof so great of the good understanding that subsists between men and women 8&8 the voluntary relinquishment by men of powers hitherto unshared.It is the highest tribute that has ever been paid to woman, and yet one of the most unobserved, that nat à school has ever been opened to her except by the vote of men, nor has she been admitted to any learned profession, er to an enlarged sphere in the line of honorable occupation except by men; nor has any woman been made a voter, in greater or less free permission of \u2018Creatton\u2019s lords.\" They have clothed us with all power that they themselves possess,save in the highest ranges \u2014ecclesiastical and governmental.No magnanimity analogous to this has been witnessed since history began.But there are two oconsideratipns which, on thelr own temti- mony, have moved men to this bestowing of power upon the gentle comrade at their side.First, men are eonscious of being abundantly able to take care of themselves and their interests; and secondly, they have learned by centuries of observation and experience, that as a class, women (being the mothers of men), are, if possible, more pongerned to do them justice than they are to da justice to themselves.Every woman iz the daughter of a man, end every man le the son of a woman, In this organic\u2019 law is grounded the unalterable faith that cheers me on my way while I seek to multiply the topics of interest and thought between men and women, that home-life may be enriched and home- happiness rendered more stable.There are three strands in the atout cable that binds together the members of an ideal home, re- Hgion; affection and intellectual sympathy.The first and second.have held their own throughout the ages past: the third this age is forming, end no truer or more enduring tie has ever yet been forged.1 FRANCES NH.- WILLARD.\u2014\u2014\u2014 A WORD TO WORKING GIRLS.FROM KATE FIE D's WASHINGTON.A few months ago I wanted to get some typewriting done.\u2018I am too busy,' the young man & whom I appiled, said, \u2018but Miles.A\u2014\u2014 will do it for you.Bhe needs the work, too.I will send her up to your house.\u201d Pleased with the idea of giving work to.ome ef my own sex, I In due time, Miss A\u2014 eame, à tiny blonde in a pale blue dress, decollete, trimmed with coarge Ince, and a gweet, pathetic girlish face looking out from & too-much-trimmed hat.I mindfui äs:we shoutd be.is repeating or re- approval, and hoplag that all warm feelings \u2018 + .1 \u2018banded pi the M2., and asked her if my \u2018of their mental development for tHe sake of SATURDAY, JANUARY 27.180 {.rr TTT PS 7 - To Tous vor handwriting was legible enough for her to.«rn ways of gelling à bithrighe = nor undertake the copying.She glanced over .of pattage.\u2019 a the first \u2018page, and slid cheerfully, 'Oh, yes;

it seemed easier to tixe up a sicrner theme and\u2018 comment ypon the wickedness of disobedience and sccrecy.Yet all the time her words riissed the mark, because the true sin si these two pretty crimimals was utter faily.Surely if the world, and their fragment of it, had been what they tnought\u2014the youth a hero, and their narents wrongly proud\u2014thelr action had nat been 80 wholly evil!

it was a long, low, stone \u201com, with two doors opening on the %reen yard.\u2018The roof of it was shaded hy a tree planted for that purpose, and pot many feet from its end wall the cool lue river ran.A queen could not have had a sweeter place for an audience \u201chamber, albeit there was need of paint and repairs, and the wooden doorstep Vas almost worn away.Sophia, churn-handle in hand, greeted her visitor without apology.She had PXpected that this churn-handle, the evidence of work to be done, would aet as x | at home in that house to whom his pres- THE a check upon feeling, but she saw.with little more than a glance that such check was superfluous ; there was no sign of intoxication from the wine of graclous- ness which she had held to his lips when last she saw him.As he talked to her he stood on the short white clover outside the door\u2019s decaying lintel.He had a good deal to say about Bates, and more about Sissy Cameron, and Sophia found that she had a good deal to say in answer.The churn was a hideous American patent, but light and very convenient.They talked to the monotonous splash of the milk within, and as work was not being interrupted, Alec was at length asked to sit down on the worn doorstep, and he remained there until the butter \u2018came.\u2019 He had gone up in Sophia's esteem many degrees, because She saw now that any escape of warmer sentiment had been involuntary on his part.She blessed him in her heart for being at once so susceptible and so strong.She fancied that there was a shade of sadness in his coolness which lent it attraction.With that shadow of the epicurean which is apt to be found upon all civilized hears, she felt that it did her good to realize how nite he was, just as a fresh flower or a strong wind would have done her good.She sald to him that she supposed he would not be staying much longer in Chellaston, and he replied that as soon as Bates would go and his brother was on his feet again he intended to leave for the west.Then he begged her to lose no time in seeing Eliza, for Bates had taken to hobbling about the roads, and he thought a sudden and accidental meeting with the girl might be the death of him.Now this assertion of Alec's, that Bates had taken to walking out of doors was based on the fact told him by Mrs.Martha and his brother, that the day before Bates had wilfully walked forth, and after some hours came back much exhausted.\u2018Where did you go ?Alec had asked him fiercely, almost suspecting, from his abject looks, that he had seen the girl.He could, however, learn nothing but that the invalid had walked \u2018down the road and rested a while and come back.\u2019 Nothing important had happened, Alec thought ; and yet this conelusion was not true.That which had happened.had been this.John Bates, after lying for a week trying to devise some cunning plan for seeing Sissy without compromising her, and having failed in this, rose up in the sudden energy of a climax of impatience, and, by dint of short stages and many rests by the roadside, found his way through the town, up the steps of the hotel, and into itk bar-room.No ene could hinder him from going there, trought he, and perchance he might Bee the lassie.Years of solitude, his great trouble, and, lastly, the complaint which rendered him so obviously feeble, had engendered in his heart a shyness that made it terrible to him to go alene across the hotel verandah, where men and Women were fdiing.In truth, though he was obviously ill, the people noticéd him much less than he supposed, for strangers often came there; but egotism isa knife which shyness uses to wound itself with.When ha got into the shaded and comparatively empty bar-room, he would have felt rore at home, hadi} not bien for the.disdoNsolite oR Tus FRS one| ence would be terribly unwelcome.It was with a nightmare of n and desolation on his heart that he laid trembling arms upon the bar, and began to chat with the landlord.; \u2018I'm on the lookout for a young man and \u2018a young woman,\u2019 said he, \u2018who'll cere and work on my clearing ;' and so he opened talk with the hotel-keeper.He looked often through the door into the big passage, but Sissy did not pass.Now Mr.Hutchins did not know of anyone to suit Bates's requirements, and he did know that the neighborhood of Chel- laston was the most unlikely to produce such servants, but, having that which was disappointing to say, he said it by degrees, Bates ordered a glass of cooling summer drink, and had his pipe filled while they discussed.The one tasted to him lke gall, and the fumes of the other were Powerless to allay him growing trepidation, and yet, in desperate adventure, he stayed on.Hutchins, soon perceiving that he was a man of some education, and finding out that he was the oft-talked-of guest of \u2018The Principal,\u2019 continued to entertain him cheerfully enough.\u2018Now,\u2019 said he, \u2018talking of people to help, I've got à girl in my house now\u2014wall, I may say I tell on my feet when I got her.\u2019 Then followed a history of his dealings with Bliza, including an account of his own astuteness in perceiving what she was, and his cleverness in securing her services.Bates listened hungrily, but with a pang in his heart.\u2018Aye,\u201d said he outwardly, \u2018you'll be keeping a very quist house here.\u2019 \u2018Yau may almest call it a religious house,\u201d said Hutchins, taking the mea- aurea ef his man.\u2018Family prayer every Sunday in the dining-room for all who likes.Yea,\u2019 ha added, rubbing his hand en his lame knee, \u2018Canadians are plows for the most.part, Mr.Bates, and I have the illeet of two eities on my baleonies.\u2019 Other men came in and went out of the room.Women in summer gowns passed the Joar.Still Bates and Hutchins ed.At last, because Bates waited long enaugh, Eliza passed the door, and, cateh- ing sight of kim, she turmed, suddenly staring as if she knew not exactly what she was doing, There were two man at the bar drinking.Hutching, from his high swivel chair, was waiting upon them.They hoth looked at Eliza ; and now Bates, trembling in every nerve, felt only a weak fear lest she should turn upon pra in wrath for being unfaithful, and summoned all his strength to show her that b which he had bound himself he would abide.He looked at her as though in very truth he had never seen her before.And the girl took his stony look as if he bad struck her, and fell away from the door, ra that they saw her na longer.\u2018Looked as if she'd seen someone she knew in here,\u2019 remarked Hutchins.complacently.He was always pleased when people noticed Eliza, for he considered her a credit to the house.The others made no remark, and Bates felt absurdly glad that he had seep her, nct that it advanced his desire, but yet ha was glad ; and he had shown her, too, that she need net fear him, And Pliza\u2014she went on past the door to the verandah, and stood In sight of the boarders, who wore there, in sight of the open street ; but she did not mee anyone or anything.She was tao common a figure at that doer to be much noticed.but if anyone had observed her it the promise with MONTREAL ing stolidly, not taking-part in-what was before her, but that her white face, which never colored prettily like other women's, bore now a deepening tint, as if some pale torturing flame were lapping about her ; there was something on her face that suggested the quivering of flames.In a few minutes she went back into the bar-room.\u2019 \u2018Mr.Hutchins,\u201d she said, and here followed a request, that was almost a command, that he should attend to something needing his oversight in the stable- yard.Hutchins grumbled, apologized to Bates; but Eliza stood still, and he went.She continued to stand, and her attitude, her forbidding air, the whole atmosphere of her presence, was such that the twd men who were on the eve of departure went.some minutes before they otherwise would have done, though perhaps they hardly knew why they went.\u2018Mr.Bates ! You're awfully angry; with me, Mr.Bates, I'm afraid.\u2019 He got up out of his chair, in his petty vanity trying to stand before her as if he were a strong men.\u2018Angry !\u201d he echoed, for he did not know what he said.\u2018Yes, you're angry ; I know by the way you looked at me,\u2019 she complained sul- Jenly.\u2018You think I'm not fit to look at, or to speak to, and\u2014' They stood together in the common bar-room.Except for the gay array of bottles behind the bar the place was.perfectly bare, and it was open on all sides.She did not look out of door or Windows to ses who might be staring at them, but he did.He had \u2018it so fixed in his faithful heart that he must not compromise her that he was in a tremor lest she should betray herself.He leaned on the back of his chair, breathing hard, and striving to appear easy.\u2018No, but I'm thinking, Sissy\u2014\u2019 \u2018You're dreadfully ill, Mr.Bates, I'm afraid.\u2019 \u2018No, but I was thinking, Sissy, I must ses you again before I go.I've that to say to ye that must be said before 1 go home.\u2019 \u2018Home I\" 8he repeated the word like the word of a familiar language she .had not heard for long.\u2018Are you going home ?, ; \"Where will ye see me ?\u2019 he urged.\u2018Anywhere you like, she said listlens- ly, and then added with sudden determination, \u2018I'll come.\u2019 - \u2018Hoots !\" he sald, \u2018where will ye come?\u201d \u2018Where ?\u201d she said, looking at him keenly ax if to gauge his strength or weakness.\u2018You're not fit to be much on your feet.\u2019 \u2018Can you come in the bush at the back of the college ?It would be little harm for you to speak to me there.When can ye come ?\u2019 \u2018To-morrow morning.\u2019 \u2018How can ye come of a morning ?Your time's not your own.\u2019 x \u2018I say I'll come.\u201d She enunciated the words emphatically as Hutchipa's crutches wers heard coming near the door.Then she left the room.: (To be continued.) _ CHLDREYS QORNER.red \"OT\" ÉAPFAIN ARCHIE.(Florence Wilkinson, in the \u2018Independent.\u201d) (Concluded.)

many have testified to blessing through our meetings held at home and through our publications, and we have been prospered in more ways than we can here enumerate.The way in which funds have been supplied in answer to prayer, from month to month, has strengthened our hearts; outfits and passages, too, have been provided as the need has required; and safe journeys owt and home have been vouchsafed in answer to many petitions.The work at this time urgently needs a hundred men\u2014men of unreserved consecration, men who mean to Hve for Christ and not for self, for eternity and-not for time, men who are fuit of faîth and of the Holy Ghost, who feel that Christ 1s worthy and who are utterly devoted to him.Qur dear brother, Mr.Cecil Polhill-Turner,thinks that p.m.\u201c a Jr Ti we Cou dente for twa hun- = + Day, 11 a.m., the Lord's Supper for Believers | CHURCH, Wellington : dred such men; and who that takes part in the consecration meetings at Keswick and elsewhere can doutt that Britain has the men and would be blessed in giving them?Personally, however, we feel that we must watt upon God for fuller light as to the exact form that our forward movement should take.When we sought for \u2018the seventy' we were assured of the will of God that we were able to praise him for them before we wrote to England to ask for them.And when we appealed for a hundred workers in a single vear.we knew before the year began that we had the petition, and the additional 110,000 necessary for outfits, passage-money.and first year's suppont, while as yet none of it was given.We now see with joy God's hand preparing for greater things.A kind friend desiring to assist in building without delay our missionary home, and also the new offices so urgently needed, wished to put at our disposal money at a low rate of interest for the purpose; we have thus been enabled to begin, and the excavators are already at work.The building now commenced will contain a large praver meeting room and rooms that will be used for the present offices; bedides a residential part for the accommedaition of returned missionaries and of candidates.We are now ereoting only three-fourths of the proposed building, but believe that the Lord will in his own good time supply what is requisite for the whole.When this building is compieted and occupied we shall have room for an enlarged number of candidates, as well as for the returned m'ssionaries, and also facilities for carrying: on together the various branches of the home work more efficiently than is now possible.to the value of gome hundreds of pounds has already been promised.There will be over thirty bedrooms.\u2014\u2014 nm A NOVEL CHARITY.The novelty is a sewing-school for boys, started in a tenement-house neighborhood in one of our large cities.The school meets on Saturday mornings from ten to twelve.It is opened with singing, and a little speech from the young lady who acts as superintendent.The boys, most of them C(ermans, come very willingly, and being required only to bring clean hands, they show great aptitude in learning how to mend renta, put on patches, and replace missing buttons.It would be a very desirable accomplishment for many boys, not merely the children of the very poor, if they would obtain some skill in using the needle.A young man should be independent of feminine help when there is a little job in the line of repairs to done, and one wise mother, who means that her girls shall know how to drive in a nail and put up drapery or bookshelves as well as their brothers can, insists on \u2018the boys learning how to sew on their own buttons.Each boy in the family has his own supply cf needles, thread, and tape, and proudly declares, himself prepared for any emergency.The poor overworked mothers in the tenements need every moment of their time to keep their rooms clean, cook their meals, and attend to the babies.Often they have to go out to work as laundresses or char-women, amd- it is no light lift they receive when thelr growing boys can lend a hand in the house-work or in the sewng.To do this will not make the boys less manly; on the contrary, it will develop in them a regard for their mothers and a tenderness toward them which does not always manifest itself in rough growing lads.The little men who gp to the boys' sewing-school are impressed by the gentle manners and refined voices of the young women who teach them\u2014 \u2018young women who insist on good manners, and set the lads a beautiful example.This novelty In charitable work bids fair to be popular in the city where it is already successful.As boys of all classes are usually hollow pipes for the reception of supplies, a big basket of sandwiches, which are dealt generously out to the pupils as they leave, is a favorite feature.These boys have a good excuse for being hungry, for in these hard times their fathers are out of work, or working at reduced wages, and this practical offering of food makes Saturday morning very attractive.\u2014 \u2018Bazar.\u2019 _\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 YOUNG PEROPLE\u2019S SOCIETIES.A unique society is the Ladies\u2019 Christian Endeavor Society, reported from Angola, Ind., as designed only for those ladles tha: before their admission had never taken part in a prayer-meeting.\u2014\u2014A potato rally is one of the latest novelties in Christian Endeavor work.Its introduction is credited to Cleveland, Ohio, where it resulted in the contribution of g large quantity of vegetables of all kinds and a good amount of clothing, to be distributed among the poor of the city.\u2014 The Epworth League of First Church, San Jose, Cal., has 200 members.Work is being done in the hospital, almshouse, jail, and the homes of the poor.Forty families were supplied with food and clothing last month.\u2014\u2014The Epworth \u2018Herald\u2019 announces that Bedford Street Church, New York City, is the first church to regularly employ an assistant dril master for a company of Epworth Guards, fifty in number.In addftion to the Bedford street company, he drills several other companies of Ep- worth Guards and Boys\u2019 Brigades.\u2014 Several of the state Christian Endeavor conventions have adopted distinctive colors for the easy recognition of their delegates at International conventions and elsewhere.Pennsylvania has selected red and blue, Delaware has adopted red and white, Philadelphia has chosen blue and white.Cleveland's colors,which will be the colors of next year\u2019s convention, are white and gold.eee THE HINDU'S HOPE.Dr.Clark, of the Amritsar Medical Mission,\u2019 says:\u2014Look at this old dame with hair like driven snow, tall and erect as if she had but lived some score of years, instead of near to the fourscore years of man's allotted span.\u2018Son, I will give all I have, bear all pain, do any-thing, if thou wilt give me my sight but for one single moment,\u2019 and then she tells us she lost ser slght some years ago \u2018Grandmother your days on earth cannot be many\u2014 the shadows are lengthening into night, why undertake all this pain and weariness for a fleeting good?say we.\u2018Son,\u2019 she replies, \u2018since I became blind, a little grandson hag been born to me.He is the only dne I have, and I have never Furniture | ;

but,- from what we know of this particular segtion of Canada, we are inclined to accept the story as handed down to us.In this issue of our paper we are permitted (for the benefit of our readers) to give in a condensed.form, a wonderful history or story as related by a gentleman, well and favorably known in Hamilton and in many other cities and towns of Ontario.: Mr: John R.Long, of 19 Burlington street west, Hamilton, is a gentleman who has \u2018come very prominently before Hamiltonians this year, as the publisher of.the.first.guide book ever issued for the purpose of advertising the \u2018Ambitious City.\" In this work Mr.Long has scored an immense success, and given such \u2018a degree of -satisfhction, that he hay been prevailed upon to publish an eflarged addition in May of the present year: Now for Mr.Long's interesting story, true in every particular.and, detail, and related with a view of' dénefiting thou- Sands, in eyegy .section- of \u2018this Dominfon.We may remarK .that \u2018this brief story has a \u2018wpecial reference to a critical period in Mr.Long's 1ife;: it refers to a \u2018time When his life was\" in- danger and despaired - of; when .the: grim reaper stood ready with outstretched arms to claim his life.- From Mg.Long's letter we give the following extracts: \u2014\u2018I was so terribly afflicted wikh-dyspepsia that I dame near dying.\u2018When sick with \u2018this awful disease, T had constantly a heavy load on my stomach which was as sore as d boil, - \u2018I «ras continually gasping for breath, sick all over, my system and mthd run low, my kidneys were out of.order, palns \u2018everywhere, costive, always tired and weak, indeed, so weak at intervals, that I had to leave my duties to rest; and, as a consequence, I lost my situation, .a light, but responsible one.I could not sleep at nights, I rarely ate anything, though always hungry, and what little I did eat, nearly drove.me crazy.- I had no desire for life in this condition.Those around me .book, \u2018who are sick and diseased that should BR.LONG.often spoke of me and wondered how I lived., Several different advertised medicines were recommended to me and tried, but with no.beneficial results! 1 was simply throwing money away.Finally, I regplved to try Paine's celery compound, which was the last medicine I had decided to buy, as I was tired of trying so many.After taking nearly two bottles of this wonderful Paine\u2019s celery compound, I began to feel improved, and regained color and flesh.I cotinued its use for five moniths, taking five bottles, and at the end of that time I was completely cured, and have never been sick since, When I commenced with Paine's celery compound I weighed 123 pounds, at the end of the five months I had gained twenty pounds, a pound a week, and now weigh 143 pounds, the most I ever weighed in my life; and the result is, that to-day I am strong, healthy, and as vigorous as any man, and enjoy my regular meals.Before, life was a burden .to me, I was always cross and cranky, and enjoyed no pleasures as others could, and was in a melancholy mood, and people around me often heard me remark, \u2018I was tired of living.\u2019 Today, I thank God and the makers of Paine\u2019s celery compound that I am free from trouble, that I enjey life, and have a .desire to live long.that horrible and life-ruining disease, and I testify to the merits of Palne's celery: compound, because I know there | are\u2019 hundreds of cases like min2; and I trust this testimony may fall Anto the \u2018hands of many suffering men and \u201cwomen.Every word I have written is God\u2019s truth, and cal be.vouched for by those who know of my case.\u2019 0° \u2018What a history of suffering! What a wonderful history of cure! Can the records of the many common advertised medicines of our day furnish proof like Mr.Long's ?No other can do so reader; it is only Paine\u2019s celery compound that can give satisfaction, relief and cure.If Mr.Long had continued with the medicines that aggravated his troubles, he would not have lived to :publish his handsometnd valuable gulde There is a rninæ here to all not.be unheeded.When

sufferer keener anguish, and few are more persistent and more difficult to eradicate from the system than that nervous disease known as sciatica.The victim of an aggravat- od form of this malady suffers beyond the power of words to express.Hearing that a resther remarkable cure had been effected in the case of Mr.William Baptist, a respected resident of the township of Culross, a \u2018News\u2019 reporter called upon that gentleman to ascertain the facts.He received the \u2018News\u2019 representative cordially, and cheerfully told the story of his restoration to health.Up to the fall of 1893 he had been a healthy man, but at that time he was attacked by sciatica.Only those who have passed through a similar experience can tell what he suffered.The pain was almost unenduçable and would at times cause the perspiration to ooze from every pore.Sleep forsook his eyelids.His days were days-of- anguish and night brought no reltef:.Reputable physicians were côn- sulted without any appreciable, benefit.The limb affected began to decrease in size, the flesh appeared to be parting from the bone and the leg assumed a withered aspeot.Its power of sensation grew less and less.All through the long winter he continued to suffer, and towards spring was prevailed upon to try Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills.He commenced using them and soon felt that they were doing him good, and hope began te revive.He conftinued the use of the remedy until he bad taken twelve boxes.In course of time he was able to resumé work and to-day feels thel he is completely cured.Remarkable success has -attended the use of Pink Pills in cases of sciatica, rheumatism, etc., and hundreds of grateful people bear witness to their efficacy and recommend them to : other sufferers.If.not Kept by your | pachel dealer they will be sent post-pafd on receipt, of 60 cents a box or 81x boxes for $250 .by addressing the Dr.Willams\u2019 Mediciie Co., Brockville, Ont., or

vintication.I then demand of you fthat you, who have re- peatd these slanders to the world, will not refuse me the justice to publish my reply.C.CHINIQUY.(To the Editor of the \u2018Minerve.\u201d) Sir \u2014You expect, no doubt, that 1 will not let your article against me, in your issue.of yesterday, be left unanswered and you wiil be satisfied.You can not find words vile enough to express your contempt for my priestly life.Well, I must confess before God and man, to-day again, what I have confessed a thousand times before the disciples of the Gospel, not only on this continent of America, but all over Great Britain and in the Australian colonies, that during twenty-five years I was a priest of anti-christ, when it had been my intention and the ardent desire of my heart to be the priest of Christ.I had ta learn by heart the infamous questions which the Church of Rome forces every priest to learn by heart.I was, in conscience, as all your priests are, bound to put into the ears, the mind, the imagination, the heart and the souls of females, questions of such nature the immediate and Qirect tendency of which is to fill the minds, the memory and the hearts of both priests and penitent with thoughts, phantoms and temptations of such a degrading nature that there are no words adequate to express them.Pagan antiquity has never known any institution more polluting of the soul and body than the Roman Catholic auricular confession.No, there is nothing under heaven more corrupting than the law which forces a female to tell her thoughts, desires, and most .secret feelings and actions _ or, an unmarried man.Let him be called priest or monk, it makes no difference.Your priests aay deny that before you; they will never dare to deny it before me.Now, my dear sir, if you look upon me as a degraded priest,because my heft, my soul, my mind, as those of ail your priests, were plunged into these bottomless waters of iniquity which flow from the confessional, I confess gufity.I was polluted, and 1 was polluting the souls of my female penitents Just as every priest has to do every day.It has required the whole blood of the great vietim, who died on Calvary, for you amd for me, and for all the sinpers, to purify me.And I pray that you and all your priests who, are required to live in the same pestilential atmosphere may \u201cbe purified through the same blood.- But now that, by the great mercy of God, I have been \u2018taken away from the ways of perdition tn which Rome was priests, 1 have.me fear to be coufronted with you &r any of my other: small or big} \u2018I slanderére.© Many times.since that I have challenged may bittetèst eneinies to find anything in my life for which an honest man must biush.= Without any boasting, I cen say that there has never been any priest In Canada so constantly cherished, honored and respected by -he priests, the bishgps and the people as I was.It is a public fact that I was brought in triumph from one parish te the other from the remotest part of lower Canade to the! shores of Lake Huron.There is not a great city\u2019 not a small town, not a cathadral in the province of Quebec or Ontario, to which the bishops have not invited\u2019 me to.address the people; and the churches, even your immense Notre Dame Church, ¢f Montreal, were never large enough to receive the people who wanted to hear me.I do not say those things in boasting, but only ta show to you and your readers how our dear countrymew, people, priests, and bishops, were kind to me., The power given to me to hear the confessions and to preach everywhere were greater than those given to any dther priest.In 180, after I had been a priest seventeen years, two years after I had left my parish of Kamou- raska, in order to establish the teraper- ance soclety all over Czpada, when my bishop of Quebec, the Right Rev.Balllargeon, went to Rome, he came to meet me in Longueult and requested me to address a letter with my book on temperance to the Pope, through Nim, that he might pFesent it himself to the sovercigr pontiffi\u2014and@ when he had presented it he wrote me a letter, which fs still in my hand, and.which I will be much pleased to shaw yom, if you desire to ses it.In this letter my bishop telle me these very words: + Rome, Aug.10, 1850, Sir and Dear Friend,\u2014It im only this th that it has beéa given me ta have a vate

which you preach, I esteem myself happy to have had te offer, on Your behalf, to the Wi of Christ, a book which, afjer &t 4 done s9 much good to my countrymen, has been able to draw from his venerable mogth such solemn words of approbation\u2019 of the temperance society, and of bldesing on those who are fts apostles; and it fe also, for my heart, a very sweet pleasure to transmit them to yoi.\u2019 Your friend, CHARLES T.BAILLARGEON, Do your really believe that such things could have occurred from my bishop if, as my slanderers say, to-day, my previous conduct had been that of a vile man when I left my dear parish of Ka- mouraska, in order to spread the principles of temperance, the blessings of the temperance all over dear Canada.Then, that bishop would have been the vilest of men.\u2019 But you will ask me, with many of my other slanderens: \u2018Have you mot been interdicted in 1851 by the Bishop of Monitreal, & few days before you left Canada for the United States .I

life, and one for which I must bless God for ever.For my integrity has never been more clearly shown than in that circumstance, That sham mnterdict, which was a nullity by {tself\u2014for its want of form, of justice and of foundation, had been kept by the Bishop, and for good reasons, a secret in Canada as \u2018well as im the United States.By his immediate and subsequent acts the Bishop had given me evidences that he was regretting his error, and was trying to repair it and make me forget it.But not long after I left the Church, to my surprise, the Bishop of Montreal said that he had interdicted me, and that he was inviting me to publish the reasons of my inter- diat.t was the best opportunity that the providence of God had offered me to prove my innocence and the incredible, excess of folly and tyranny of this Blsh- op of Rome.Without delay, I accepted.the challenge, and published through the French-Canad.an \u2018press the following letter, which forever confounded the poor Bishop.He has never been able to reply, though itwas so important for his honor, and the interests of his Church that he should have replied to i: ; To Moaselgnor Bourget: St.Anne, April 18th,

that sentence.I will satisfy you.On the 28ta September, 1851, I found a letter on my table from you, telling me that you had suspended me from my ecclesiastical offices, on account of a great crime that I had committed, and of which I was accused, But the name of the accuser was not glven, nor the nature of the crime.I imtnediately went to see you, and protesting my innocenge, 1 requested you tot] give me the name of my accusers, and tg; allow me to be confromted by them, promising that I would prove my innocence.You refused to grant my request.Then I fell on my knees, and with tears, in the name of God, I requested you again to grant me to meet my accusers and prove my innocence.You remained deaf to my prayer and unmoved by my tears; you repulsed me with malice and airs of tyranny which I had thought impossible in you.During the twenty-four \u2018hours after this.gentiments of an inexpressible wrath crossed my mind.terrible hour, I would have preferred to he at the feet of a

I had asked the whole people of Canada to go to the Rev.Mr.Schneider, and to the Rev.Mr.Brassard to know the truth.The Bishop remained confounded.It was proved that he had, committed against me a most outrageous act of tyranmy and perfidy; and that I was per- feotly innocent and honest, and that he knew it, in the very hour that he tried to destroy my character, sending this wicked woman to corrupt me.Probably the Bishop of Montreal had destroyed the copy of the declaration \u201ccf the poor girl he had employed; and thinking that this was the only copy which he had taken of her declarætion of my innocence and honesty, he thought he could speak of the so-called interdict, after I was a Protestant.But in \u2018that he was cruelly mistaken.By the great mercy of God three other authenticated copies had been kept, one by the Rev.Mr.Schmelder himself, another by the Rev.Mr.Brassard, and another by another one wham it is not necessary to mention\u2014and then he had no sugplecion that the revelation of his unchristian conduet, end of his determinn- tion to destroy me with the false oath of a prostitute, were in the hands of too many people to be denied.\"The Bishop of Chicago, whom I met a few days after, told me what I was well aware of before: \u2018that such a eentence was a per- \u201cfect nullity im every way, and that it was a disgrace only for these who are blind enough to trample under their feet the laws of God and men \u2018to satisfy their bad passions.\u201d And no doubt you will be of the same mind, if you are an honest man.But to show you that the Bishop of Mantreal himself never thought that his unjust sentence had any effect, and that he himself never lost his good opinion of ine, I also publish for your perusal the letter he gave me the day that 1 left Canada.These are his words: October 13th, 1851.\u2018I cannot but thank you for what you have done in our midst, and in my gratitude to- \u2018wards you I wish vou the most abundant .benedictions ot heaven.Every day of my life I will remember you.You will always be in my heart, and I hope that in some future day the Providence of God will give me some opportunity of showing to you all the {gratitude I feel for you.Sk » :\"I ask you will ever & bishop say to a priest, in a written document, signed with his own haads.\u2018I eannot but thank you for what you have done in our rhidst\u2019\u2014i£ that priest has been an immoral, a bad priest?\u201c Does not the Bishop who writes such words acknowledge that he was wrong in his previous hasty and unfavorahle Jylement ?\"Would the intelligent editor of the \u2018Minerve\u2019 if he were the Bishop of Montreal write to a priest, \u2018I cannot but thank you for what you have done in our midst.In my gratitude towards youl pray God to pour his most abundant blessings upon you,\u2019 if he knew that that priest is an Immoral and \u2018wicked man.No, never; nor will you give a chalice to an interdicted priest to say mass the rest of his life.Is it so that 48 long as a priest 1a in your midst, he may be the most depraved man, a public scandal, a murderer of souls, yet the Bishop will Hke him, honor him, and overload him with every kind of public and private marks of respect.But when he leaves them to become a Protestant, then they pour out on him their scorn and abuse! By their own confession have they not done this to me ?If 1 was an immoral man when a priest of Rome, how is it thaë the bishops have known it only after I had left their church?And if I were an immoral man\u2019 when In \u2018their midst, why is it that the bishops from the beginning to the end of my career, gave me s0 many public and private marks of esteem amd respect ?If they had done so, are they not confessedly worse than what they call me?In 1835 the Blshpp of Quebec gave me the important parish of Beauport.In 1842 he placed me at the head of a still more important parish of Kamouraska.In 1849 the Bishop of Montreal, in a public document, puts me in the most exalted position that g@ priest has ever got, he calls me \"the Apostle of Temperance of Canada.\u2019 and one of his best priests.The same year he induces the \u2018Pope to send me a magnificent crucifix.In 1850 he Invites the people of Montreal from his pulpit, in his cathedral, to come with the Hon, Judge Mondelet, to present me a golden medal, as a public token of his respect and gratitude for me.In 1851\u2014the day that I left Cama- da\u2014he writes me \u2018that what I have done in his âtocese, when working under his eyes, has filed him with gratitude ! And the same, man, after I had left the -Church of Rome, says that I Was an im- | moral priest\u2014en interdicted and, suspended priest!\u2014and that on the testimony of a prostitute, who afterwards declared that she had made a false oath to revenge herself; because she had not been ablé to persuade me to commit a crime with her! If what I declare of the infamous conduct of the Bishop had not been correct, and if the recantation of that unfortunate female, in the presence of the Rev.Father Schneider had not been cor- reet also, how easy it would have.been for the Bishop to confound me forever, by bringing that superior of the Jesuit College gs a witness of my imposture ! And how it would have been an Imperious duty in Father Schneider, when he saw his name publicly and on the papers committed with a fact so degrading to the Bishop, to come forward and pub- lsh that what I had sald was forgery! Then Chiniquy would have been for ever and so easily confounded.But such has not been the case.The poor Bigh- op had to pay publicly for his infamous conduct towards me, and he was left without any means of escape; and If you ate honest it is not on Chiniquy that you will turn your scorn; it is on the man who, forgetting all the laws of justice, of God and men, had united his efforts to those of a perjured prostitute, to destroy his innocent victim.Ana if you are not honest enough to see and understand this, what have I to care about your scorn ?w let us say another word about thè other interdict by Bishop D'Regan.\u2018And I tell\u201dyouw'boldiy, that îf-anytäing \u2018can _be conaidered asi honor by any Ît is to heave deserved the wrath o Bishop will never give a chalice to a priest A publicly depraved a man.Though he EEE \u201cever interdicted me (he only threatened letter 2 SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 874 to do it) he found fit to publish that he had dome it.But m his letter of Nov.20, 1856, where he publicly gives the reasons of that so-called sentence, he somewhat deranges the plan you have, my dear sir, to make people believe that 4t was on account of immorality.In that letter ithe Bishop eays: \u2018His obstinate want of submission\u2014hig excessively violent language and conduct\u2014obliges me to suspend him \" I thank and bless God who gave me the strength to say some great truths: to that most immoral and \u2018tyrannical bishop.He was such a wscked man that several priests, among whom I was one, wrote \u2018to the Pope about lis bad conduct; and the Archbishop of St.| Louis, and many other bishops, having brought also serious complaints against at man, hs dlocese was taken away from kis hands, and he got a bishopric in \u2018part!bus infidedhum, which, you kaow very well, means a bishopric in ihe moon \u2014end the place was just tit for the man.The sentence was never served on me in any way.The Church allowed me to pay mo attention to !t; end the subsequent excommunication having been brought by \u2018three priests, who at time were beastly drunk, and not being c:gned by the Bishop nor any of his ' lene Inside as well as the our srand vicars or known deputies, 1 was hound by the laws of the Church not to pay any attention to it.The Rev.Mr.Desaulniers and the Rev.Moses Brassard having come, some time later from Canada to enquire about those matters and reconcile us to the Bishop.declared before more than five hunderd people that we \u2018could not be blamed for having paid no attention to that sentence, which was evidently and publicly agalnat all the known laws of the Church.\u2019 But I \u2018have no bad feelings against that unfortunate man, who died five years after.It is the contrary.His abominable life, his vices, his complete want of principles, which forced the lshops of the United States to denounce him to the Peope\u2014who condemned him at he end\u2014have helped me much, by the mercy of God, to know what the Church of Rome has been, what she is, and what she will be till the great day that God will open the eyes of her poor slaves and bring them to the feet of Jesus, who will make them free with his words and pure with his blood.Read the following declaration of that same Bishop to four deputies sent to him by the people of St.Anne just two days before our excommunication.That declaration, signed by four Roman Catho- les, is under oath, before the civil tribunal of Kankakee;\u2014it 1s the best refutation of your slanderous article against me.Bishop O'Regan gave the deputation a written response, which was published in Canada, at the time, in the leading ers.s Phe Bishop was waited upon, on the 27th day of August, 1856, and presented the following reply :\u2014 1st.I suspended Mr.Chiniquy on the 19th of this month.24.M Mr.Chiniquy has said mass, since, as you.say, he is irregular; and the Pope alone can restore him in his ecclesiastic and \u2018sacerdotal functions.3d.1 take him away from Ste.Anne, despite his prayers and yours, because he has not heen.willing to live In peace -and in friendship with the Revs.M.Lebel and M.Cartevel, although I admit there were two bad priests, whom I have been forced to expel from my diocese.4th.My second reason for taking Mr.Chi- niquy away from Ste.Anne, to send him in his new mission, south of IHMmois, is to stop the lawsuit Mr.Spink has instituted against hiin; though I cannot warrant that the lawsuit will be stopped for that.bth.Mr.Chiniquy is one of the best priests of my diocese, and I do not want to deprive myself of his services; and no accusations against the morals of that gentleman have been proved before me.8th.Mr.Chinigquy has demanded an inquest to prove his innocence of certain accusations made against him, and has asked me the names of his accusers to confound them; I have refused it to him.7th.Tell Mr.Chiniquy to come and meet me\u2014to prepare himself for his new mission, and I will givé him the letters he needs.to go and labor there.Then we withdrew and presented the foregoing letter to Father Chiniquy.FRS.BECHARD.J.B.L.LEMOINE, BASILIQUE ALLAIR, LEON MAILLOUX.Now, my dear sir, before taking leave of you allow me a little friendly advice.When you argue with a Protestant, even one whom you call an apostate, never made a personal question of a principle, if you wish to make people think that you have \u2018the right side, and that the irrefutable arguments are in your favor.For the very moment you give up the arguments on the question, to drag your adversary on the ungentlemanly and unchristian ground of personal injuries and slanders, you lose your cause in the mind of an intelligent people.A man who has good reasons to support his cause, and strong arguments has never recourge to those personall- ties and hard mes which you have used.The question is not to know who has committed most sins against the decla- bogue, but whether 1t 48 true or not that the Church of Rome has forsaken the word of God, the Gospel of Christ, in order to preach her lying traditions.If you could prove that when I was a priest of Rome Iwas as criminal as David, and as weak as Samson; a perjurer as Peter, or a blind persecutor as Paul, this will not at all prove that I have not done well to leave the Pope in order to follow Christ.It is just the contrary.The more wicked I was im the Chureh of Rome, surrounded as I was, d as you are to-day, by the most pestilential atmosphere, and having before my eyes \u2018the example of a concealed, though most horrible corruption, in high quarters, as well as among my equals, the more imperative was the duty for me, as for you, to go out of those ways of perdition.Do you know, my dear sir, to what I have been \u2018tempted when \u2018writing this The thought has come to my mind to publish, not all (for it would be too terrible, but a part of what I know of the inside, and almost ncredible ecer- ruption of Rome ! To give, for instance, a part of the history of that Grand Vicar who was guilty of an unmention- \u2018able crime, and was never interdicted; of that \u2018other dignitary whose conquests were s0 numerous in Moatreal thatthe ground became too hot for him, and who was not interdicted but kindly invited {0 go to another place.\u2018The his- .tory.of that good bishop also who, for five.years, kept a fine young man in his san his confidential friend, and er] :Iouse who had to send that faithful servant, with £500, to the United States, when a many of ; and depraved.| have found among then: \u2014 2 ry Very Viteéresting circu oc that the fine young young gir.\u2019 Hon, sa, I! was also tempted ta some very Interest ne d- memoirs, not of poor Fi.(though he has gomme Tu.+, from ithe mem dra of an.ar spectable bishops or Ron Riccy, where it jg often sn! \u2018that the nuns «ff Ja v oar priests.\u2019 Happy cel dv non had same very interesting which ve have knour those three good priesis an miles very intereatfi 7 VV uTa young Jadies, vd Were ithe Holy Char h of 1» them is na sean oo of the oad nuns of + 1e 1 tue twa oo hers prition othe 1 eos fF My intention, #f ro nn, correct hosoary © fc a!
