Nkvkr Smiles.—The Christian Leader
presents a portrait for the contemplation
of the minister who “never stuiles
He is a man of ability and of no mean
acquirements. He preaches well, and his
life does not belie his doctrine. But he has
the habit of taking a severe view of near
ly all questions and of everybody’s con
duct. He is very serious. He maintaius
an impenetrable rigidity; an immovable
sobriety. The conviction grows on his
people that be believes mirth the unpar
donable sin. He sometimes preaches about
cheerfulness, but it is always in a way to
make it seem the most solemn of subjects.
In a word, he has allowed himself to be
come an embodied moral cloud, casting
an unwelcome shadow over every home
lie enters, and moving about his parish a
grim extinguisher of light and joy, when
lie should be the inspirer of both.
A Test ok Wheat as a Diet. — Dr
Bourne is an enthusiastic vegetarian. He
is sixty-four years of age, and has walked
from Portland, Oregon, to San Francisco,
California, a distance of 800 miles. The
doctor has written a long account of his
journey. And what does the reader sup
pose was the eccentric object of his little
walk ? We give it in his own words: “My
great object was to demonstrate, by so pos
itive a test, the value of wheat alone as an
article of subsistence under laborious and
exhaustive conditions. Therefore, in the
iuterest of humanity and dietetic reform,
he gives his record. He started from Port
land, Oregon, on the 27th of May, at 4
o’clock in the morning, and was thirty
four actual walking days on the road. Un
til the fifth day Dr. Bourne ate nothing
but unboiled wheat flour mixed with wa
ter, and stewed fruit. After the fifth day,
his food was only crackers, broken up and
soaked in boiling hot water. Subsisting
upon wholly, having walked 800 miles in
thirty-four walking days—that isexclusive
of ten for rest, making forty-four in all
he weighed within two pound of the one
hundred and fifty-three pound with which
he started. Such, he says, is the value of
a wheat diet,
The Unchangeable Love.— ln a re
cent discourse ltev. W. H. H. Murray
said:
We must learn to look upon the Lord
as unchangeable—the same yesterday, to
day, and forever. The effulgence of the
cross should shine backward as well as
forward, and light up eternity as well as
time, showing God ever the same. This
unchangeableness of God helps to explain
the cardinal facts of Christianity, such as
the incarnation. We need to take God in
this view to make our faith large. There
is plenty of doubting, trembling faith ut
tered in prayer and spoken from pulpit;
but we need more faith, so that we cau
take God at His word. When we pray,
too, we need to look at God as not only
now loving us, but as ever loving us.
Half our prayers are arguments, used as a
means of pacification to gain God's con
sideration. The true lover of God de
lights in prayer, and trusts his Lord
entirely. We must beware of making
unto ourselves a little, meager, minute
God. Our minds should he telescopic,
not miscroscopic in this matter. At the
heart of all God’s magnificence we find
the sole power to be love. John, in his
visions of God in the Apocalypse, saw,
first, HU colosal power ; second, His con
trolling wisdom ; third, the truth dwell
ing within God's almightiness as the soul
dwells in the body ; and fourthly, He be
held, above power higher than wisdom,
that crowning, attribute of Deity, love ;
so much above all the rest of God's attrib
utes that it alone could fitly characterize
Him.
HUMAN DOLLS.
We Bee by one of our English exchange
papers that the continued trade by the
Turk* in Circassian women is creating
some public remark. This modified form
of the slave trade in the East has been
carried on, as we are told, in a very quiet
and secret manner of late, out of respect
to the progress of ideas and the growth of
general civilization. The beauty of the
Circassian girls has passed into a proverb,
and has attracted a romantic interest to
their country. Of course it is no news to
our readers that the harems of the East
are mainly supplied with these beautiful
dolls from the region of country about the
Caucasian mountains, lying between the
Black and Caspian seas. The province
of Georgia, on the southern side of the
mountain range, is the section from which
most of these female slaves are brought to
market Modern writers have adopted
the Caucasian as the highest type of the
human race, and perhaps it is so in a phy
sical point of view, nnd under favorable
circumstances It may be also susceptible
of the highest moral and intellectual de
velopment In the home of ita birth,
however, it does not present any very en
couraging traits, either moral, social, or
intellectual.
There is a little disguise or secrecy
about the matter in Circassia ; its daugh
ters are very generally reared for sale in
foreign markets, and symmetry of form,
fairness of complexion, and beauty of
teature, are regarded and encouraged simp
/ “ aTa *{j*kle qualities for commanding

soil, plunder their neighbors whenever
this is live in ill constructed and
contracted hovels, aud cat only the
coarsost of food. The romantic vein of
their nature is thus cultivated to the neces
sary point which leads to their placid ac
ceptance of the situation, let it be what it
may. The singular results growingout of
these experiences lead to stories equaling
the Arabian Nights in vivid coloring anil
portraiture.
As we have already intimated, the trade
has long since been interdicted by the
Turkish Government under the pressure
of Western influence, yet it is known to
be carried on in a covert manner aud to a
very large extent. The price paid in the
market for these females, of course, varies
according to their attractions, but it is set
down at an average of four or five hundred
dollars each. Personal beauty is all that
is considered in this trade, intellectual cul
ture being not only out of place, but also
out of the question. What little is known
or professed of religion is Mahometan,
though the tenets of the Greek Church are
sometimes adopted. All must, however,
become Mahometan by profession before
sale and entrance to the barem, as the Turk
is always sensitive in all matters relating
to his religion. We had hardly thought
that this trade in human dolls was still
carried on in the East. —Boston Qlobe.

THE FKtllll.Tt WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising Is
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are tba best medium for reaching
ail parties whoa* trade Is desired.
THB MONROE ADVERTISER
reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than any other journal published in the
country; it la, therefore, the best medium of
communication with the planting Interests.
We will tie happy at any lime to furnish refer
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
who will testily to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties who rend
their cards in The Advertiser. In (set, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds thst of all
other journals in which they are represented.
The Advertiser has the freshness of youth and
the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly
successful.
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS.
No advertisements are admitted whish are
not believed to be above question and of real
value, and from parties so unquestionably fa
liable that the readers of The Advertiser will be
safe In ordering them from any distance. To
our readers, tbs fact of its appearance here has
all the weight of endoraemnat and authority.
