Women as a Factor in the World’s Evangelization. BY MRS. FANNIE II. CAItlt. The late National Convention of the White Ribbons at Mineapolis, represent- ing a constituency of over 200,000. from Atlantic seaboard tci .Pacific slope, demon* r strated with tho ‘‘ stubborn logic of facts ” 'women’s eminent capacity for work re- quiring a high order of executive ability and business tact. The poet and novelist of a former period, who delighted to rep- resent woman as an interesting specimen of milk-and-water imbecility, or of the iyy- clihgipg-td-the-oak variety* would have been at his wit’s end to secure a woman “ after.his own heart ” in that unique as- sembly of women whose lines were con- secrated by a high ,and lioly calling, and bearing in their expression and demeanor .a consciousness of the grandeur of the truth that "in an age on ages telling,.to be living I? sublime.” . If one well-attested fact be worth those of mere theory! then the able manner In which the chairman of the various lines of work (embracing lit- erature, scientific, legal, preventive, etc.,) acquitted themselves, offered a most satis- factory; answer concerning women’s fitness for business. But the fact tlmt was em- phasized by this convention, (as, in fact,by all previous ones), was tlmt the pre-emi- nent qualification for. work was the bap- tism of the Holy Ghost. The question is often asked how can these quiet women, whose lives have hitherto been so shelter- ed and who until comparatively lately blushed at tlie sound of their bwn voice, have.the courage to speak with such self- possession and ability-in public, as well as act so efficiently ? If the simple truth was known (paradoxical as .it may seem) per- haps no one Is more surprised than them-, selves at their present condition. The se- cret is amopen one. Fully believing they were called to the work, and realizing keenly their natural weakness, they have1 sought with aii intensity and faith that ah ■ways secures the blessing and. tlie neces- sary endurement, and have had practical experience of what St Paul meant: when he said “ When I am weak, then am I str.ong,” “ and again. I can do all these things through Christ who strengthened me.” We believe that could men see as the Lord sees, that the work of the W. C. T. U-, from the Lakes to the Gulf,: and from the pines ,of: Maine to the Golden , Gate, both collectively and in detail, would furnish the grandest object lesson pf wliat God can do with those utterly surrendered and with many whose talents lind hitlierto lain dormant, and the lesson would be rich in suggestion to tlie Church of Clirist con- cerning utilizing the talents of her women along tlie various lines of Christian and philantrdpic endeavor. ‘"Women’s part in the diverse fields ofchurch or humanitar- ian work is no longer that of an experi- ment. The great practical results follow her. services for home and foreign mission work, as well as the largest organization for women thq world has.ever seen,, The White Ribbons abundantly illustrate her success in organized effort, requiring men- tal faculty and traits of character hitherto supposed to be almost if not quite the ex- clusive prerogative of man. In view of the fact that, iwo-thlrda of the church’s membership ate women wliat rapid strides in the world’s evangelization would be effected were a wise and diligent, use of her talents be encouraged by the “ powers that be.” ... The Conflic; with Sin. . BY WMl V. REID. . ' .It i‘s always well to be reminded, when the Lord’s ; people are engaged': in any direct conflict w ith the corrupt opposing influences of this , world, that:they can; claim an infallible assurance of success. As sure ns Clirist their head and Lord over- came, .although for a time it seemed that the issue trembled in the balance, so cer- tainly will; righteousness triumph in the end. y ’- : - • The proper equipment for, success is to be sought in triiceasirig/ prayer, • and .with the whole heart. Then'outof week ness we are made strong, and: although;, it; lie through fire or flood, there is no power to succesfully oppose our onward march to victory. The cause so dear to us often is hindered bv our own lack of. grace nnd confidence... Like Peter, when lie began to sink, and the.Master said - “ f), tliou- of. little faith: Wherefore didst thou doubt V” there lire occasions when we need a special uplift to keep us fro.m discouragement. Busy as are tke agencies in Oceon Grove and elsewhere to save the souls of men; Satan is just as active, yea, a thousand times more so, to ruin and destroy. . Look at the; liqiior traffic and .its endless train of vices and , evils'; gambling,:liceriteoushess and fraud in many forms, defeating human law,'and flourishing,'seemihgly .the. more it Is held up to public reprobation^ :What can be done to save our youth froiri its deadly coils V. . ’' ! : •It is no time, however,; to cease a single effort, for tiie moral and physical wrecks we see all around us should excite such pity and zertl, os,should constrain us to at- tack the enemy in every stronghold, arid never stop until in God’S own good time, he bri ngs the counsels bf .impi ety to n aught, and tbrbu gh whatever agency it pleases him to work, sweeps from the face of the eartli this.trinity of evils, strong dririg, li- centiousness and gambling, : Notice the literature spread before tlie eyes of the young, to pervert every moral sense, and the shamelessness of men in public places, to put up pictures; before tbe gaze of the lewd and profane, even in a barroom in our.county town, which ought to. send, whoever is responsible for such obscenity to the State prison. ; ':S'- '• }Ve must have moral courage to de- nounce vice In every gaise it assumes, and never blush to contradict the devil. • A9 the chief patron and promoter of everything low and mean, we arraign the liquor traffic, from the gilded saloons to the hotel barrooms, and on down to the lower groggeries; and clandestine; trade which without leave or license is seeking to demoralize the CQminhnity , frpm .Sandy Rook to Manasquan—even crowding the very gates of Gcean Grove in its despera-, tion to destroy. Men and britUren let us awake to these evils. If we do our duty. Almighty God will 6tand by us, nnd this unmitigated curse will yet be overthrown. m t m ------^—— . The Highest Motive. The hope of heaven is ihe most effect- ual inspiration to fidelity in all earthly duties, because such fidelity is the essen- tial preparation 'for:heavenly’felicity.; We are. not cailed; tq rob earth to enrich; a re- mote paradise, but to make a paradise of earth; atid- no man has, any guarantee of heaven hereafter who. hc&; hot ii lieaven begun in his heart here, and does not shed heavenly influences on all 'around Iriiii; “ That, then, is not the, =best; religion of hum unity wliicli simply teitclies the d ruth s of a brotherhood.;dbut'' that Is the:.bettei* fonh of faitii which^I in -(addition to rin in- culcation of those truths, pictures this brotherhood us. nil moving ou . toward, a world sublimer . than , this brief period. Those wlio deuy a God and a future state may confess that they move to the same morals as those which, surround- a heart full of the endless hope; but if these do thus march they march without.any.musie, and without a beloved leader, and without a grand destination. These troops of death and dust .have kept time, have often obeyed heroically tlie orders of a pitiless fate, .but theyjhave not advanced with a cheer, for their nVarch; is rendered a dead march by all back of it and all before k. Brighter tlie faces, loiider the shouts, more’ buoyant tlie step of .those ranks of men who, passing through the rich valleys of time, see before tiicm that blessed encamp- ment which is called -‘ heaven.’ *’ ,. FdthfotoeBB. Faithfulness means, to be true to one’s triiBt. But an older meaning throws great light upon the true way to be faithful. When Paul spoke of "the father of the faithful ” as fi faithful Abraliam,” the inci- dent quoted (Rom; 4 ;.10; Gal. 3: 7) shows that by "faithful” lie meimt full of faith. So, Paul speaks of ldmself os at once “chief of sinners" and as "faithful” (i Timl 1:12,13), He is deeply interested in the condition of tlie faith of tjiose dear disci- ples he had led to tlie Saviour. He telle the Tliesshlonians (all in one chapter) liqw lie had sent to .know, their faith, seut.Tim- othy to comfort theni in their faith, declftr, ed that their :faith in other, days lmd great- ly comforted hini; and;that lie; prayed ex- ceedingly tliat he niight be himself per- mitted to visit them and perfect thut which was lacking in their faith; . Now in this light just turn to ydiir.Bibles, and to the third chapter of Fkst -ThesSaidnians, ami first going over it to underline the word "faith” 'wherever it occurs* go over it again, and enjoy its precious and helpful suggestions. Of all the: apostles of Christ—Judas of course excepted—would you, dear reader, have considered Peter as. tiiefaithful disci' pU f- Yet: note—for several lights are. al- ways most iritei;esting,r— : ' ".•• .. 1. Peter*8 cMfcxsf ioiVoffaith. That was a thrilling moment when, Jesus having turned suddenly to ask, ” But whom say. ye- that I am Peter responded, .“ Thou art tiie Christ, the Sori qf the 11 ving God!” And the Master immediately followed: up this glorious confession with a remark which wns at once a commendation and a caution: “ Blessed art thou, Simon Bar- jona; for flesh and blood hath not revealr ed this unto thee.” 2. Peter's trial of faith. The disciple said, long after, in beginning a. letter: “ Sim on Peter; a servant and an apostl e of Jesus Christ; to tjiein that have obtained like precious faith with us.” He knew iiow precious his faith was, for it hod been tried! as gold witif fire. ^Well could he remember how he boasted once, and Jesus reniinded him, fi I have prayed for thee that tliy faith fail not, and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.” And it did hot fail in the Sense of dying out completely, since Jesus’’ intercession saved him, and so many of us, from total' loss. The loyalty of the magnet does not per- manently.. fall, providing; the magnet is removed from the presence of the disturb- ing attraction which diverts it from point-, ing to the north'. '.. • .v'. ." ': •3. Peter's use far faith. * .‘ Giving all dil- igence,” he said, Vadd to your faith virtue, and to virtue knowledge, and to knowr ledge temperance; -and to temperance pa- tience, and to patience godliness, and to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness charity.” Here is where the common Idea of faithfulness comes Into proper use. First u faith in tlie Lord J esus Christ; then using, exer- cising this new spiritual trustfulness in God. Would there not to-day be more fuithfulness among Christians if they were more careful of the life of faith ?—J/m- biah% 8 Ilerald.

Iiow could she hold that little hand down, especially when the little one al- most struggled to free it, so eager, so anx- ious was she to raise her hand with the others! . It was in the children's meeting nt Ocean Grove. The boys and girls, each in a few words, hud been, giving in their testimonies, and then Mrs. Inskip asked # how many little ones want to give their hearts, to Jesusphow inaiiy w;ant a:new, cleiin h e a r d a n d v .this: little •;girl' had promptly and joyfully.raised her hand; : Imagine her surprise and dismay, when her own mamma took hold of her hand and tightly liqld it down. In a moment all,bowed in prayer, and down went the little one ou her knees, though no one near her wiis kneeling, and God alone knows what was the cry of that young heart to a loving, pitying heavenly Father. A few feet away oil that same .Saturday afternoon, there bowed with many others in the mother’s meeting, an aged woman. Her heart was breaking witli a-burden which it. had been bearing for many u year. Awriv back in the past her son came to her one.day saying, '■Mamma, I want to be a Christian, 1 want to join the church,'? and then, oh, .that mistaken answer: " My son, you are too young; some of these days .YOU shall be all this.” A few years after' this mother called her boy to her side und said: “ Charlie, don’t you think that it is time for you to give your heart to God.” " No, mamma," he said " I do not care anything for It now.” To^lay he Is a bus- iness man, and during'all these years his mother has plead with him and prayed for him, blit from tliat early: boyhood period, he has shown no desire after God, and what the result will be we dare not thinkl Newark^ N .

MEMORIAL SERMON BY BISHQP LEE,:;■■ ' On Sunday evening, Nov. 7; the vener- able Bishop Lee having returned to Wil- mington, conducted a memorial service in St.. Andrew’s P. E, Church. I a the ser- mon preached qn the occasion'from Prov. li): 7, .‘‘The memory of the just is blessed,” the Bishop said, the human heart clings to itsjrensures, and when death takes them ■we ennnot fully reali.:e.that they arc,gone* or ;lost. to us forever. We reason within ourselves, was our companionship with our loved ones just for a day t and our in- stinctive, doubts/on this subject are a pledge of immortality—the finger that points toward a re-uninn in a happier and better land. / . - : * Therefore our former associates are not lostWhen the grave closes upon their forms, and hides them -from our view, and when we count over our families, or even our friends, we do not exclude tliose who have passed away, as we know’ that we shill meet them .agaiii beyond the burrow cOhfines of-dhe grcve. v;Death cannot Ter move, or the grave cover up a man’s Influ- ence, therefore “ the memory of the; just is blessed." ; Such:a memory is precious, and the light which once burned so iiriglitly is not quenched in death. The Bishop said these remarks would apply; to the late Gregg; Chandler, and proceeded to give a sketch of his; life, prefacing it by saying that he sought first the kingdom of Got), and other things were added unto him. Just before attaining his niajori^; he >vas. converted, and a few days afterwards con- fessed his faith in Clirist,. and become a member of St. Andrew’s Church. The great truths of the. gospel were to him grand realities, and this abiding sense of the Divine presence gave him a decision of.character which made liim successful In life. ; 5 e made eYerything else secondr ary to his duty'to God, nnd thus deserved, the confidence of the community, which was .freely extended to him! and which hG never betrayed; iiis.character wiis;above reproach, and bis'integrity was never call- ed In question; ; He; partook:: of his first communion on Cliristinus day,; 1832, and shortly afterwards became a Sunday-school teacher, and although others resigned when they felt age coming on them,,lie continu-- ed up to the time of his death, a period of oyer^p years:.-..,,,;'. *■ .' • .. . :• It w’as his great delight to point his scholars to Christ, and some have come from the Sunday-school who are now preaching the gospel, while others have passed away firm in the faith, and have no doubt greeted him before this. Not a few can trace .their conversion to his.efforts, and his burning desire tr> win souls to Christ caused him'to be pained when lie saw others Indifferent to their eternal wel- fare. In private, lie seconded tlie efforts publicly made by tlie minister from the pulpit, and his t-isk was not always a pleas-, ant one, as it is sometimes a very delicate thing to approach persons in regard to their eternal welware. Nearly 30 Years ago he became an officer of tlie church, and for the greater part of that time was warden und treasurer, lie was also chosen- for many years n delegate to the Dloceslan Convention, and wns entrusted with con- siderable funds belonging to the church. Shortly before his death lie was asked if there was anything he wished to .say or any directions lie would like to.give in reference to his accounts, and he replied no, that they were all correct. After his deatli, when his accounts were examined, they were all found to be; carefully bal- anced and fully settled up. ; lie wns nn active member of several socintions founded on the broad plane of charity, und consequently this made his death a loss to the.entire community. The nature of his disease forbade deatli-bed testimony, but even while his mind r wns wandering nnd he. was delirious, he was exhorting sinners to come to Christ and repeating texts of scripture. Just before his death he looked up and said, ".The gates are open,” and pronounced the bene- diction, and his last intelligible words were, “ I know that my Redeemer iivetb.” Orice during his Illness he'said, "All Is con- fusion around me,”,no doubt referring to the disease, " but all is peace within.” Such was his life and such his death; and it remains an example to all.; ;■ To the above tribute it may. not be out of place to’append the following lines, written by one of the members of Mrs. Chandler's Bible class:- • ' /V/' :' / . IN MEMORY OK (I REEO CliANDLKIt. ; " I K SOW THAT MY REDEEMER LlVETH.’!'' / know tbai iny redeemer Iivetb," V ."Dying, thus they heard him say; : Grander words conld not be uttered .. At the clo» of life’s short day. V i know that my redeemer Iivetb.” Oh, what comfort those words bring; , - Where now, grave thy boa«e<i victory t Where, oh, death, is now thy sting,? . Take me home." he gently murmured; V And the angels ho’vering near, ' .Rustling not their snowy pinions. Softly answered a We are here. ’ ’ Softly bore him from his anguish To those mansions fair and bright. • ; Where they know not death or sorrow, Where God’s 6mile doth banish night. But bis going leaves one lonely Who has loved him many years; Her stricken heart is almost broken, Swiftly, blindly, fall the tears. And 6be feels that for her ever Life will be a weary way, Without him whose tender guidance Smoothed her pathway every day. Bnt take comfort, stricken mourner, Not alone life's path you’ll tread: Let the«c words bring sweetest solace. “ Lo. I'm with youf” Chri*t has said. Oct. ly. 15*0. —Kra .'f. Pyle. " All Jc7.'! They live on a higher spirituiil plane who can feel these two words of St. James, chap. 1:2. It is one thing to hear what we cannot prevent, ancl quite another thing to find joy in it. A private letter brings these strong words from a much-tried Christian: “ Madame Guyon says, ‘ There is great peace in all accepted sorrow.’ I know this Is true,'-aad,:i dcfiire tc':receive all that comes into miv life; not only.in a resigned spirit, hut in a joyful spirit ; for certainly all God’s. dealings /tyiUi/ me in the past give me confidence;^pr the:future; Every sorrow I'have; had has: brought a blessing with it. I could not afford to lose any trial that lias yet come to me.” ' '' V This Is the heroic element in common life. It brings the nmrtyr-spirU far down from the martyr ages. It lifts everyday experience to a sunlit grandeur. To un- derstand this one must be. a firm believer In the providence of God.. No dreamy generalization will-vsustaln n triumph of this,sort. God must be yeiy* near, to>uch a life. His hand must be felt In' the deal- ing of every day. The mystery of God’s actual control I n 1 ife must be penetrated by the flash of faith’s headlight Trials must be taken .as loving appointments— not as slips and misfits, iis if G>k1 were unmindful.. They are the very plans of eternal love und thoughtfulness. Every man's life is a plan of God. No one can see this, no one can reason it out, no one keep tally of It as life goes along. But a childlike trust which mnkes faith its 1 ogic and accepts trusting In place of seeing, will discover the' "all joy” which hides itself iti every providence. It is a great thing to stand under fire because we have been led there.. It Is rioble to carry a hi gh.'.resolve never to be cowardly in life. But the grundest thing of all is to feel that every cloud holds refreshments as well as wind and hail; every trial is sent to enwrap a suriirlse of divine -goodness. Mere endurance may float distressingly in the trotigli oPtliesen, while heroic faith, wits its keel of " all joy,” cuts every wave and sails un grandly toward Its lmven. * Bass the word along the line of .God's marching host. Tell it iu the >iek:room, where faith is put to its mighty strain. Tell it in the vineyard • when \yorkers fall and fears come for tlie Cause of God. . Tell it in every night of toil wJiich settles down on human life.- Tell it -when.' the fig-tree does not blossom, when the- Jab-jr of the olive.fails; tell it in all* life's dark and lonely paths—every trial is a plan of God; and both men arid migeh wait- with holy curiosity to discover the *’ all joy” which God is pledged to reveal in his own time. —/Ac.

Let the young people everywhere; send up their prayers that this.new build- ing. shall be the entrapce way both; for. themselves and their friends, to the King’s presence, and that the music.and spirit and life of former years shall bo.there in double measure. It is possible* that we may lmve some new and better features to add to the meetings, anti can now promise that if God shall keep us here till summer time ngain, Ocean Grove will liave such a winning programme for voting peoplethat- her borders will need to be enlarged to hold till who. will want to gather there.

Women as a Factor in the World’s Evangelization.

BY M RS. F A N N IE II . C A Itlt.

The late National Convention of the White Ribbons at Mineapolis, represent­ing a constituency of over 200,000. from Atlantic seaboard tci .Pacific slope, demon*

r strated with tho ‘‘ stubborn logic of facts ” 'women’s eminent capacity for work re­quiring a high order o f executive ability and business tact. The poet and novelist of a former period, who delighted to rep­resent woman as an interesting specimen of milk-and-water imbecility, or of the iyy- clihgipg-td-the-oak variety* would have been at his wit’s end to secure a woman “ after.his own heart ” in that unique as­sembly of women whose lines were con­secrated by a high , and lioly calling, and bearing in their expression and demeanor . a consciousness of the grandeur of the truth that " in an age on ages telling,.to be living I? sublime.” . I f one well-attested fact be worth those of mere theory! then the able manner In which the chairman of the various lines of work (embracing lit­erature, scientific, legal, preventive, etc.,) acquitted themselves, offered a most satis­factory; answer concerning women’s fitness for business. But the fact tlmt was em­phasized by this convention, (as, in fact,by all previous ones), was tlmt the pre-emi­nent qualification for. work was the bap­tism of the Holy Ghost. The question is often asked how can these quiet women, whose lives have hitherto been so shelter­ed and who until comparatively lately blushed at tlie sound of their bwn voice, have.the courage to speak with such self- possession and ability-in public, as well as act so efficiently ? If the simple truth was known (paradoxical as .it may seem) per­haps no one Is more surprised than them-, selves at their present condition. The se­cret is amopen one. Fully believing they were called to the work, and realizing keenly their natural weakness, they have1 sought with aii intensity and faith that ah ■ways secures the blessing and. tlie neces­sary endurement, and have had practical experience o f what S t Paul meant: when he said “ When I am weak, then am I str.ong,” “ and again. I can do all these things through Christ who strengthened me.” We believe that could men see as the Lord sees, that the work of the W. C. T. U-, from the Lakes to the G ulf,: and from the pines ,of: Maine to the Golden

, Gate, both collectively and in detail, would furnish the grandest object lesson pf wliat God can do with those utterly surrendered and with many whose talents lind hitlierto lain dormant, and the lesson would be rich in suggestion to tlie Church of Clirist con­cerning utilizing the talents of her women along tlie various lines of Christian and philantrdpic endeavor. ‘"Women’s part in the diverse fields ofchurch or humanitar­ian work is no longer that of an experi­ment. The great practical results follow her. services for home and foreign mission work, as well as the largest organization for women thq world has.ever seen,, The White Ribbons abundantly illustrate her success in organized effort, requiring men­tal faculty and traits of character hitherto

supposed to be almost if not quite the ex­clusive prerogative of man. In view of the fact that, iwo-thlrda of the church’s membership ate women wliat rapid strides in the world’s evangelization would be effected were a wise and d iligent, use of her talents be encouraged by the “ powers that be.” ...

The Conflic; w ith Sin. .BY WMl V . R E ID . . '

.It i‘s always well to be reminded, when the Lord’s ; people are engaged': in any direct conflict w i th the corrupt opposing influences of this , world, th a t:they can; claim an infallible assurance of success. As sure ns Clirist their head and Lord over­came, .although for a time it seemed that the issue trembled in the balance, so cer­tainly will; righteousness triumph in theend. y ■ ’ - : - •

The proper equipment for, success is to be sought in triiceasirig/ prayer, • and .with the whole heart. T h e n 'o u to f week ness we are made strong, and: although;, it; lie through fire or flood, there is no power to succesfully oppose our onward march to victory. The cause so dear to us often is hindered bv our own lack of. grace nnd confidence... Like Peter, when lie began to sink, and the.Master said - “ f ), tliou- of. little faith : Wherefore didst thou doubt V” there lire occasions when we need a special uplift to keep us fro.m discouragement.

Busy as are tke agencies in Oceon Grove and elsewhere to save the souls of men; Satan is just as active, yea, a thousand times more so, to ruin and destroy. . Look a t the; liqiior traffic and .its endless train of vices and , evils'; gambling,:liceriteoushess and fraud in many forms, defeating human law,'and flourishing,'seemihgly .the. more it Is held up to public reprobation^ : What can be done to save our youth froiri its deadly coils V. . ’' ! :

•It is no time, however,; to cease a single effort, for tiie moral and physical wrecks we see all around us should excite such pity and zertl, os,should constrain us to at­tack the enemy in every stronghold, arid never stop until in God’S own good time, he bri ngs the counsels b f .impi ety to n aught, and tbrbu gh whatever agency it pleases him to work, sweeps from the face of the eartli this.trinity of evils, strong dririg, li- centiousness and gambling, :

Notice the literature spread before tlie eyes of the young, to pervert every moral sense, and the shamelessness of men in public places, to put up pictures; before tbe gaze of the lewd and profane, even in a barroom in our.county town, which ought to. send, whoever is responsible for such obscenity to the State prison. ; ': S'- '•

}Ve must have moral courage to de­nounce vice In every gaise it assumes, and never blush to contradict the devil.• A9 the chief patron and promoter of

everything low and mean, we arraign the liquor traffic, from the gilded saloons to the hotel barrooms, and on down to the lower groggeries; and clandestine; trade which without leave o r license is seeking to demoralize the CQminhnity , frpm .Sandy Rook to Manasquan—even crowding the very gates of Gcean Grove in its despera-, tion to destroy.

Men and britUren let us awake to these evils. I f we do our duty. Almighty God will 6tand by us, nnd this unmitigated curse will yet be overthrown.

m t m ------ —— .The Highest Motive.

The hope of heaven is ihe most effect­ual inspiration to fidelity in all earthly duties, because such fidelity is the essen­tial preparation 'for:heavenly’ felicity.; We are. not cailed; tq rob earth to enrich; a re­mote paradise, but to make a paradise of earth; atid- no man has, any guarantee of heaven hereafter who. hc&; hot ii lieaven begun in his heart here, and does not shed heavenly influences on all 'around Iriiii; “ That, then, is not the, =best; religion of hum unity wliicli simply teitclies the d ruth s of a brotherhood.;dbut'' that Is the:.bettei* fonh of faitii which^I in -(addition to rin in­culcation of those truths, pictures this brotherhood u s . nil moving ou . toward, a world sublimer . than , this brief period. Those wlio deuy a God and a future state may confess that they move to the same morals as those which, surround- a heart full of the endless hope; but if these do thus march they march without.any.musie, and without a beloved leader, and without a grand destination. These troops of death and dust .have kept time, have often obeyed heroically tlie orders of a pitiless fate, .but they jhave not advanced with a cheer, for their nVarch; is rendered a dead march by all back of it and all before k. Brighter tlie faces, loiider the shouts, more’ buoyant tlie step of .those ranks of men who, passing through the rich valleys of time, see before tiicm that blessed encamp- ment which is called -‘ heaven.’ *’ ,.

FdthfotoeBB.Faithfulness means, to be true to one’s

triiBt. But an older meaning throws great light upon the true way to be faithful. When Paul spoke of "the father of the faithful ” as fi faithful Abraliam,” the inci­dent quoted (Rom; 4 ;.10; Gal. 3: 7) shows that by "faithful” lie meimt fu ll o f faith. S o , Paul speaks of ldmself os at once “chief o f sinners" and as "faithful” ( i Timl 1:12,13), He is deeply interested in the condition of tlie faith of tjiose dear disci­ples he had led to tlie Saviour. He telle the Tliesshlonians (all in one chapter) liqw lie had sent to .know, their faith, seut.Tim­othy to comfort theni in their faith, declftr, ed that their :faith in other, days lmd great­ly comforted hini; and;that lie; prayed ex­ceedingly tliat he niight be himself per­mitted to visit them and perfect thut which was lacking in their faith; . Now in this light just turn to ydiir.Bibles, and to the third chapter of F k st -ThesSaidnians, ami first going over it to underline the word "faith” 'wherever it occurs* go over it again, and enjoy its precious and helpful suggestions.

Of all the: apostles of Christ—Judas of course excepted—would you, dear reader, have considered Peter as. tiie faithful disci' pU f- Yet: note—for several lights are. al­ways most iritei;esting,r— : ' ".•• ..

1. Peter*8 cMfcxsf ioiVof faith. That was a thrilling moment when, Jesus having turned suddenly to ask, ” But whom say. ye- that I am Peter responded, .“ Thou art tiie Christ, the Sori qf the 11 ving God!” And the Master immediately followed: up this glorious confession with a remark which wns at once a commendation and a caution: “ Blessed art thou, Simon Bar- jona; for flesh and blood hath not revealr ed this unto thee.”

2. Peter's trial of faith. The disciple said, long after, in beginning a. letter: “ Sim on Peter; a servant and an apostl e of Jesus Christ; to tjiein that have obtained like precious faith with us.” He knew iiow precious his faith was, for it hod been tried! as gold witif fire. ^Well could he remember how he boasted once, and Jesus reniinded him, fi I have prayed for thee that tliy faith fail not, and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.” And it did hot fail in the Sense of dying out completely, since Jesus’’ intercession saved him, and so many of us, from total' loss. The loyalty of the magnet does not per­manently.. fall, providing; the magnet is removed from the presence of the disturb- ing attraction which diverts it from point-, ing to the north'. '.. • .v'. ." ':

•3. Peter's use far faith. *.‘ Giving all dil­igence,” he said, V add to your faith virtue, and to virtue knowledge, and to knowr ledge temperance; - and to temperance pa­tience, and to patience godliness, and to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness charity.” Here iswhere the common Idea of faithfulness comes Into proper use. First u faith in tlie Lord J esus Christ; then using, exer­cising this new spiritual trustfulness in God. Would there not to-day be more fuithfulness among Christians if they were more careful of the life of faith ?—J/m- biah%8 Ilerald. •

Two Mothers.Iiow could she hold that little hand

down, especially when the little one al­most struggled to free it, so eager, so anx­ious was she to raise her hand with the others! . It was in the children's meeting nt Ocean Grove. The boys and girls, each in a few words, hud been, giving in their testimonies, and then Mrs. Inskip asked # how many little ones want to give their hearts, to Jesusphow inaiiy w;ant a: new, cleiin h e a r d a n d v .this: little •; girl' had promptly and joyfully.raised her hand; :

Imagine her surprise and dismay, when her own mamma took hold of her hand and tightly liqld it down. In a moment all,bowed in prayer, and down went the little one ou her knees, though no one near her wiis kneeling, and God alone knows what was the cry of that young heart to a loving, pitying heavenly Father.

A few feet away oil that same .Saturday afternoon, there bowed with many others in the mother’s meeting, an aged woman. Her heart was breaking witli a-burden which it. had been bearing for many u year. Awriv back in the past her son came to her one.day saying, '■ Mamma, I want to be a Christian, 1 want to join the church,'? and then, oh, .that mistaken answer: " My son, you are too young; some of these days .YOU shall be all this.” A few years after' this mother called her boy to her side und

said: “ Charlie, don’t you think that it is time for you to give your heart to God.” " No, mamma," he said " I do not care anything for It now.” To^lay he Is a bus- iness man, and during'all these years his mother has plead with him and prayed for him, blit from tliat early: boyhood period, he has shown no desire after God, and what the result will be we dare not thinkl

’ The Late Gregg Chandler.M EM ORIAL SERM ON BY B IS H Q P L E E ,:;■■'

On Sunday evening, Nov. 7; the vener­able Bishop Lee having returned to Wil­mington, conducted a memorial service in St.. Andrew’s P. E, Church. I a the ser­mon preached qn the occasion'from Prov. li): 7, .‘‘The memory of the just is blessed,” the Bishop said, the human heart clings to itsjrensures, and when death takes them ■we ennnot fully reali.:e.that they arc,gone* or ;lost. to us forever. We reason within ourselves, was our companionship with our loved ones just for a day t and our in­stinctive, doubts/on this subject are a pledge of immortality—the finger that points toward a re-uninn in a happier and better land. / . - : *

Therefore our former associates are not lostW hen the grave closes upon their forms, and hides them -from our view, and when we count over our families, or even our friends, we do not exclude tliose who have passed away, as we know’ that we shill meet them .agaiii beyond the burrow cOhfines of-dhe grcve. v; Death cannot Ter move, or the grave cover up a man’s Influ­ence, therefore “ the memory of the; just is blessed." ; Such: a memory is precious, and the light which once burned so iiriglitly is not quenched in death. The Bishop said these remarks would apply; to the late Gregg; Chandler, and proceeded to give a sketch of his; life, prefacing it by saying that he sought first the kingdom of Got), and other things were added unto him. Just before attaining his n ia jo ri^ ; he >vas. converted, and a few days afterwards con­fessed his faith in Clirist,. and become a member of St. Andrew’s Church. The great truths of the. gospel were to him grand realities, and this abiding sense of the Divine presence gave him a decision of.character which made liim successful In life. ; 5 e made eYerything else secondr ary to his duty'to God, nnd thus deserved, the confidence of the community, which was .freely extended to him! and which hG never betrayed; iiis.character wiis;above reproach, and bis'integrity was never call­ed In question; ; He; partook:: of his first communion on Cliristinus day,; 1832, and shortly afterwards became a Sunday-school teacher, and although others resigned when they felt age coming on them,,lie continu-- ed up to the time of his death, a period of oyer^p years:.-..,,,;'. *■ .' • . . . : •

I t w’as his great delight to point his scholars to Christ, and some have come from the Sunday-school who are now preaching the gospel, while others have passed away firm in the faith, and have no doubt greeted him before this. Not a few can trace .their conversion to his.efforts, and his burning desire tr> win souls to Christ caused him'to be pained when lie saw others Indifferent to their eternal wel­fare. In private, lie seconded tlie efforts publicly made by tlie minister from the pulpit, and his t-isk was not always a pleas-, ant one, as it is sometimes a very delicate thing to approach persons in regard to their eternal welware. Nearly 30 Years ago he became an officer of tlie church, and for the greater part of that time was warden und treasurer, lie was also chosen- for many years n delegate to the Dloceslan Convention, and wns entrusted with con­siderable funds belonging to the church. Shortly before his death lie was asked if there was anything he wished to .say or any directions lie would like to.give in reference to his accounts, and he replied no, that they were all correct. After his deatli, when his accounts were examined, they were all found to be; carefully bal­anced and fully settled up. ;

lie wns nn active member of several socintions founded on the broad plane of charity, und consequently this made his death a loss to the.entire community. The nature of his disease forbade deatli-bed testimony, but even while his mind r wns wandering nnd he. was delirious, he was

exhorting sinners to come to Christ and repeating texts of scripture. Just before his death he looked up and said, ".The gates are open,” and pronounced the bene­diction, and his last intelligible words were, “ I know that my Redeemer iivetb.” Orice during his Illness he'said, "All Is con­fusion around me,”,no doubt referring to the disease, " but all is peace within.” Such was his life and such his death; and it remains an example to a ll .; ;■

" All Jc7.'!They live on a higher spirituiil plane

who can feel these two words of St. James, chap. 1 :2 . It is one thing to hear what we cannot prevent, ancl quite another thing to find joy in it. A private letter brings these strong words from a much-tried Christian: “ Madame Guyon says, ‘ There is great peace in all accepted sorrow.’ I know this Is true,'-aad,:i dcfiire tc':receive all that comes into miv life; not only. in a resigned spirit, hut in a joyful spirit ; for certainly all God’s . dealings /tyiUi/ me in the past give me confidence;^pr the: future; Every sorrow I'have; had has: brought a blessing with it. I could not afford to lose any trial that lias yet come to me.” ' ' ' V

This Is the heroic element in common life. It brings the nmrtyr-spirU far down from the martyr ages. It lifts everyday experience to a sunlit grandeur. To un­derstand this one must be. a firm believer In the providence of God.. No dreamy generalization will-vsustaln n triumph of this,sort. God must be yeiy* near, to>uch a life. His hand must be felt In' the deal­ing of every day. The mystery of God’s actual control I n 1 ife must be penetrated by the flash of faith’s headlight Trials must be taken .as loving appointments— not as slips and misfits, iis if G>k1 were unmindful.. They are the very plans of eternal love und thoughtfulness. Every man's life is a plan of God. No one can see this, no one can reason it out, no one keep tally of It as life goes along. But a childlike trust which mnkes faith its 1 ogic and accepts trusting In place of seeing, will discover the' "all joy” which hides itself iti every providence.

It is a great thing to stand under fire because we have been led there .. It Is rioble to carry a hi gh.'.resolve never to be cowardly in life. But the grundest thing of all is to feel that every cloud holds refreshments as well as wind and hail; every trial is sent to enwrap a suriirlse of divine - goodness. Mere endurance may float distressingly in the trotigli oPtliesen, while heroic faith, wits its keel of " all joy,” cuts every wave and sails un grandly toward Its lmven. *■ Bass the word along the line of .God's

marching host. Tell it iu the >iek:room, where faith is put to its mighty strain. Tell it in the vineyard • when \yorkers fall and fears come for tlie Cause of God. . Tell it in every night of toil wJiich settles down on human life.- Tell it -when.' the fig-tree does not blossom, when the- Jab-jr of the olive.fails; tell it in all* life's dark and lonely paths—every trial is a plan of God; and both men arid migeh wait- with holy curiosity to discover the *’ all joy” which God is pledged to reveal in his own time. —/Ac.

Let us hoist over ohr new Young Peo­ple's Tpmple before even a stone is laid for its foundation, our banner for soul- winning. Let the folks know, east, west, north nnd south, that we rebuild for ono purpose—to get more people into tlie kingdom of God.

If I had my way I’d dip every nail and board and shingle that goes into the struc­ture into a strong solution of “ Zeal: pre­servative for soul-saving;” Its.a compound. that can be taken inwardly by /Christian people with much .profit to them and to others! Let the young people every where; send up their prayers that this.new build­ing. shall be the entrapce way both; for. themselves and their friends, to the King’s presence, and that the music.and spirit and life of former years shall bo.there in double measure. It is possible* that we may lmve some new and better features to add to the meetings, anti can now promise that if God shall keep us here till summer time ngain, Ocean Grove will liave such a winning programme for voting peoplethat- her borders will need to be enlarged to hold till who. will want to gather there. Begin now to work and pray, talk and plan for these meetings.

The truth of the Gospel--the truth as' to the pardoning mercy and renewing grace provided in Jesus, was as a very , little seed, planted io the earth by the Messiah./aml that so.quietly tlmt.the'act . hardly attracted the attention of the world.

from Bro. Yntmun. Head whnt he hns-to suggest about the enlarged Temple, astliat work Is now dotermined upon.

We shall ns far ns possible revise our mail lists during the month of December,

. • We appreciate such pleasant recognition . as comes to us ia the letter of our old

friend Mr. Gorsuch, of Baltimore City. If this paper is of any use to its readers, its chief value is in the form of a weekly re­minder of blessings enjoyed at Oeenn Grove, and its continuous incentives to an active and consequently joyous religious life., . ,

The Ocean Grove workmen made a gen- eral raid on the Young People's Tern pie on Wednesday. The seating was removed under shelter of the Auditorium and all trees standing in the way of the proposed

' terson’s plan. ,As we write (on Thursday) the steadiest

An automatic box is-being put up on the lamp posts in Brooklyn to supply the pub- bic with postage stamps, postiil cards, a

jjencil.aml postal letter envelopes. At any Ihour of the day or night a citizen iiiay go to one of these boxes and drop a penny into It at which there will appear a postal, card nnd a pencil with -which to write a letter. I f he has a letter already written nnd merely wants a postage stamp.to mail It lie may drop two pennies in.the box at which, presto, a two cent postage stamp

• will come out of tlie box. These conven­ient boxes arc ul ready In use in London and are much liked there. The boxes in Brooklyn are an improvement oirthosein London. Tliey look like writing-desks and arc 75 inches high b y 17 inches deep. Each box is divided into several drawers— one for stanips, one for postal cards, one for stamped envelopes and one for letter paper. There is a slit for dropping a coin over each drawer. When the proper coin drops in it seta in motion a bit of machiu-

Editor's Tablo,General Wm. Booth.Immense posters around Asbury Park

This fact is already recognized in Eng­land, where tlie standing of Gen. Booth and his evangelistic family—his wonder­fully gifted wife, at whose feet the nobil­ity of ten sit to learn gospel- truth, and his intrepid sons and daughters, all imbued, with the spirit of self-sacrifice shining out in the character and-work of their parents, enjoy a degree of popular respect hardly second to the royal family, itself, by tens o f thousands of the people, and where the Established Church Inis been trying to take the whole movement under its fostering wing.

Booth is a name which has become, a Shibboleth as powerful as thut of John Bright or Gladstone, .but Wm. Booth, as we believe, disdains worldly pomj> or ap­plause.

The Departed. •Two hretheren'quite prominent in for­

mer years at Ocean Grove have, during the past week, died in Philadelphia.

William A. Leary was among tlmse who hc-gan among us with tent- life, and subse­quently owned tlie handsome cottage in the rear of tlie Young People’s Temple, fronting, on Central avenue nnd Ocean Pathway, wldch lie subsequently sold to Al rs. C. C. Sisson, lie wus among tlie best known citizens of Philadelphia, having been the founder of thut popular establish- ment' kuowu as “ Leary's Book Store.” Of late years ho had almost entirelj\given up ail active business, and failing health con­fined him to Ids home for several months before his death. lie.made a short stay ut the Grove last .Summer, hut was unable to take his accustomed walks, on account of paralysis, uud growing feebleuess. On last Subhuth the expected chnugc came. Tlie writer of tlds calling at Ids home, 1312 N. 13thSt.j.to make him a visit, found crape on the door, lie Imd peacefully passed away tliat morniug in the 73d year of his age. • .

About the same age, but vigorous and; strong up to tlie hour of liis unexpected attack, was Air. William Matthews, 2022 Alt. Vernon Street. 1 Ie erected ;two • cot­tages, one fronting Wesley Lake and tlie other bn the. rear of Ids beautiful grounds fronting.on Ashury avenue. These he oc- cupied .for a mtmbi‘r,of years, until lie was attracted |o Florida, where he purchased property.at Arlington, on. the St. .John’s river, contiguous to Jacksonville. lie spent Ids Winters there chiefly of recent years, and was preparing to start again, when on Nov. T), without premonition of any fatal result, ho was stricken down. His deutli is widely lamented, for in business circles, as well as the-church and society, he was. universully esteemed for his high character, benevolence and amiability.

The scope of tho volume may bo partial ly apprehended by a glance at tiie well ar­ranged table of contents—which include under the head of Alatter, relating to or- ga'nlc bodies, their; vital elements-and forces. “ Mind,” with its faculties and powers, nnd “Life" iu the definition of which, uinn is shown to bo a physical unit, and materialism a tissue of absurdities.

The author does not hesitate to arraign Prof. Bowue for certain mistakes that master metaphy sician lias fallen into; uud makes out a system of consistent philos­ophy, in which the power of conscience, and tiie departments of sensation', reason and religious faith are logically and sug. gestively presented.

exhibits a degree of energy .and 'activity quite on a par with liis chosen profession of an evangelist• at large, spending the greater part of his time in tlie moral nnd spiritual harvest field, where he bus met with a large and substantial measure of success. This work, however, has only broadened his. sympathies until they com* puss the whole world lying in the dark­ness of ignorance, heathenism uud sin. For Bishop Taylor and liis mission Bro.

AIu. E ditoh:—Th e ; R ecoiid in its weekly visits stirs up afresh my pleasant recollections of last Summer’s visit to Oceun Grove. Aly sojourn there was passed so delightfully that its memories can never be effaced from my mind. Even in the smallest details of my intercourse and association with the preachers and people assembled from all parts of the country, so endeared the place to my heart that I have no greater comfort than' in sitting down, to retrospect the whole scene, which presents to my view a strik­ing confirmation of the w ords of the Psalmist, “ Behold, how good and pleasant it is for-brethren to dwell together in unity.” I t gave me such an insight , as I never had before, into the character and spirit of the people of the eastern part of­the country; who were just as. kind aud cordial as any I had ever known.

I t is remarkable how much of the spirit and genius of the. place,:SO fraught with joyous associations, you' can get. into the pages of T ue Recohd, which as I read refreshes my soul every time.

As you were pleased to insert my former communication, *. wliich I am pleased to notice, was widely copied and read at tho time, I will now give you a few items in regard to this e itj\ especially what is going forward of interest to our King, Jesus, whom wo acknowledge to be the riglrtful Lord and ruler, of this whole earth.

The churches, as a general thing, arc moving on the enemy’s works without any sign of fear or defeat. Revivals broke out in many of them early in the Fall, and hundreds have already been gathered into the Great .Shepherd's fold, who were wanderer!s from Gotl in tho broad road of folly. Among Alethodists, where I am best acquainted, tlie old-fashioned class- meeting has not yet fallen into disuse. This is an institution which acts as a kind of spiritual thermometer. Wliere.you see warm and joyful class-meetings you will always find religious prosperity. . / ••

It is a wonder that Air. Randall, with his Appropriation extinguisher watching for somebody trying to reduce the tariff, has not served for a cartoon. In a nation of politicians who divide themselves under the banners of Democracy and Republl- canlsm, Air. Randall enjoys the unique dis­tinction as being classed as a Republican by many Democrats, and as a Democrat by most Republicans. He has claimed to ex­ercise in his committee room more power than the Chief Magistrate in the Executive Mansion, and to have made Presidents, even if lie bus never himself occupied the White House.' Ain Randall’s Washington residence is on Capitol Hill, only u few squares from the Capitol. Tliis he occupies during the sessions of Congress, but when they close he goes with his large family to his coun­try home near Paoli, about seventeen miles from Philadelphia, where lie leads a quiet, domestic life.; The President is in close retirement now. lie sees ho unimportantcallers, and is busy at work on his niessage.to Congjess, Each of the Cabinet officers iias laid before him .the advance-sheets of their annual reports, and Col. Lnmont luis been assisting him in arranging the matter. But now'the Pres­ident, is dbing double duty, as his faithful secretary was. summoned on Saturday to the bedside of his father; who is seriously ill- . • ,

The President’s country, home, which is no longer “ Red Top,” but “ Oak View/ after the owner’s own christening, is ex­pected to bo ready for occupancy in about two weeks. The President and Airs. Cleve­land do not intend to reside there uow, nor do they contemplate living tliere perma­nently at all. For the p re sen tO a k View” is to be the residence of Mrs. -Cleveland’s mother, nml i t will always be available for the President and liis wife to go and come as they like. It would be an admirable resort for tlie President how, while lie wants privacy for the preparation of his message. lie could .shut‘himself up there without being intruded upon,'us the place is four miles from tlie Whito House.

The ups and downs of life find many illustrations in tlie Government Depart meats here. I u the past few days a grand­son of President Tvler entered on duty as a watchman at the. Interior Department. He is forty-six years old, was educated nt the Virginia Military Institute, and served in tlie Confederate army as an officer in Gen. Jackson's corps. The reverses that como to the fortunes of men ure facts of everyday experience, of course, and it is not surprising to find men who have held high positions under the State and Nation- al goveniients discharging in their old age tho rather humble duties of watchmen here. But it.is rather a remarkable thing when a number of such cases may bo selec­ted from.tbe personnel of the watch forco of one department, its. in this case.

Riddleberger, the erratic Senator from Virginia, they ndmit tlm tIt will be extremely uncomfortable. The Senate is now composed of thirty-seven straight-out Republicans, arid these two above mentioned Senators, who vote with either party as it suits thorn. . Consequent­ly tlio issue iu Nebraska will lie watched with very great iuterest. Tliero are now aS many Senators as Representatives in the city, although there are .but seventy-six members in a full upper House, while tlie lower consists of. three hundred and twenty-five. .

He was in tbe 24th year of his age, a graduate of the Peirce Col­lege of Business, who gave evidence of more than ordinary business ability. Ho was converted when quite, a lad and sus­tained to tho time of his death nn unblem­ished Christian character. Several days before his departure lie told Ids parents that his end was near, but all was well.

O .L .S .O .Although the severity of the storm nec­

essarily caused the reception to be a-fail- ure as regards numbers, the few wlio did venture out—those feeling the responsi­bility of the affair—are inclined to look at the result from an optimist’s point of view. Tho home-like and cheery parlors of the Atlantic House., looked all the brighter from contrast with the surrounding dirk-

. ness, and the hospitable greeting of Mr. Hunt; who kindly opened his house for the occasion, was all the more appreciated. A very enjoyable evening was spent with the president; who camo all the way from Philadelphia to meethisC.L.S.C. friends. Disappointment was of course felt in not being able , to greet our friends from tbe Park, who have recently started, in the good way,-but We may gather inspiration from the little verse quoted last week, and “try again" under circumstances more favorable.

UTTERLY DISCOURAGEDexpresses the l’eelin^ of many victims of rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica .and . nerr vous or sick headache. Having tried numberless so-called remedies,, nnu^physi- cians of all schools, witliout relief, there seems lo be no hope. Mnny such -liave as a last resort tried AihlophoroSj and to their surprise and joy have found that it was a, safe, sure Und quid:cure. -Athlophoros isnot an experiment; * thousands have been cured by its use and they testify as to its value. Shekomeko, Dutchess Cp. N. Y. Aug. 20,,SG 7 I took Athlonhoros according to direc­tions; it caused a ringing in ihyear that , was not pleasant, it operated on my heart causing a slower and fainter throb, arid constipated my bowels. When the last dose was taken X. did not think much of the medicine: tlie next tiny my. lameness* was better, and continued getting less until it left me. My lameness wns in my hack, shoulders and neck,and had been for eight months. I was advised to try Athlopho­ros by my .neighbor, W-nv.Jackson, who' had taken a bottle of it for a severe attack of lameness in his shoulder.and arm. lie said “ it drove the lanieness right out of me; my head felt strong, nnd my heart almost stopped beating ; 1 thought I would die, but I came out all right, and havo n o t. had any lameness since.” A m o n B r i g g s .

Phelps,N .Y ;, August 13, 1880.I am a practicing physician; I pre­

scribed Athlophoros in a ease of inveterate rheumatism of the right shoulder and arm. This case had been of weeks standing—yes months—and resisted medicine carefully selected, also the use of electric treatmoht. One bottle removed all the trouble; The case remains well, now oyer a year since using the medicine. •
