The Small industries Catching Them. Chautauquk, Tenn., Nov. 17, 1892. Mb Editor: I have seen your piper, in regard to small industries. 1 am a soap- maker and if your people will take hold and give me any encour Kgemeut will eome to Athens and manu facture all the soap the people of Athens and the surrounding country can use at a much less price than you are now paying for it. It will take at least twenty hands to do the work and they will all moyo to your city. I shall watch witb / interest how your people propose to manage it and think it will ba a success. Respectfuly, J N. W. "Hallo, Arthur!” cried Phil DeDt, meet ing a schoolmate one Saturday morning: "where are you bound?” “To the Professor’s library,” was the reply. "What have'yon on hand?” “A game of ball on the grounds; all the fellows are goiDg—no end of fun. Come on,” said Phil. ‘‘Can’t,’’ said Arthur, looking as if be A. D. 2,000. If we calculate correctly these United Spates will then have a population of over one billion and five hundred mil lion, or as many as are now in the whole world. “The only lamp I have with which to guide my feet is the lamp of experience,” and that is the rate at which we have been increasing in the past. Again, if we go on at the present rate of leaving the country and moving to the cities, everybody will then liye iD town and we will have no country pop ulation : and at tbe rate that farmers are now getting power, they will all have perished to death and there will be no more botherations with farm work. But it is so much cheaper to buy things than to raise them, we will be living so cheaply by the year two thousand that we will have no need to raise anytbiog. We will just buy it all. But where will we get the money to buy with ? Why, according to the pre vailing arguments the high tariff raises wages and lessens work, and the con traction of the currency makes money so plentiful that it is already a drug in the New Yo:k market. Hence by tbe year 2,000 we will have raised the tariff so high and contracted the currency so much that gold will be as the stones in the streets, and silver will be nothing acc uinted of, and we will have learned to live by taxation and have so increas ed he peneiou roll that all will live out of the income of ‘‘Ur.de Sam.” There is nothing fanciful or wild about these figures. They are only fol lowing tbe present way ef arguing and doing to their legitimate results, or as the logicians say, arriving at the ‘ Raduc .io ad Absurdum.” • But this is not all that will be accom plished, for this is a progressive age and all we will hive to do is to con tinue the same ratio of progress and by that eventful period wondeiful things will have been accomplished. Space and distance will become of so little importance as not to be leckoned. Travel will be so rapid that you can take breakfast in A thens, spend the day in New York, and enjoy the evening witnessing the cloeirg exercises of the Lucy CoDb Institute. Methods of com munication will have been so perfected that we will be able to converse with friends at any distance. And not only that, but we ce..i see the one we are talking to. But that will be a small matter, for all distinction of “race, color, and previous conditions” will have been done away with, by an Act of Congress and all of us will be just alike I do not think 1 would like that part of ir, but. according to the doctrines of the “Eternal fitness of tbiDgs” and ‘‘The survival of the fittest” as taught by our Evolutionists at present, it must come to that.

THE GALA DAY. Mr. R. E. Branch, of Trotting Hone Fame, Will Come. Meeting Mr. R. E.

In the past 100 years we have come from tbe cx cart to the el- otric car. In the uext 103 years make tne same stride and you r-u»have only to think of a place a<hat it will be there. So in the mattskYqd mind we must keep apace witlrmaterial progress. How recently have we measured tbe universe and weighed the stars. At tbe same rate of progress we will make Jupiter a neighbor, and his inhabitants close friends. But this is not an era of sober habits and steady methods. This is an age of activity in which things move with ac- cehrat* d velocity ana increasing mo; mentum. We have only to increase our calcula tions in Geometrical Progression and the achievements possible by the yeai 2,000 will present to our enraptured gaze a dszz'ing scene, at present utter ly lncnceivsble. By that period Geology will have so improved on Moses as to do away with that troublesome period, “The Begin ning.” . and that inexplicable affair, “The Creation.” • Eternal Evolution will have taken place of all facts and theories become realities, and all things all together lovely. That is what wonld be, if only one side were developed. But unfortunate ]y, the evil is progressive &1bo.

The United States Express Company Osins Another Strong Southern Line. Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 18.—From sub rosa but reliable sources, it has been learned that the United States Express company has secured the express privi leges ou the Louisville and Nashvfie railroad and all its branches, and the operation of the same will commence January 1, 1893. It has been kept se cret, bn' it leaked oat by the express company trying to secure entrance into Knoxville over the Knoxville, Comber- land Gap and Louisville railway from Middlesborongh. “Casting all your care upon Him; for He oareth for you.” (1 Pet. v. 7) If there is any way by w ticta the chil dren of God can get rid of anxiety and cease to be burdened with its crushing weight, the revelation ought assuredly to be made. Believers ought to know it. Well, such provision has been made in the gospel of onr Lord Jems Christ. He, in fact, is theiburden-bearer ot his people, if they will cast their burdening cares, anx ieties, upon Him. Bat the trouble is, most, perhaps, of God’s children do not live as in the presence of the Saviour; and hence, when trials come, they sre forced to hunt Him up, before they can, as it ap pears to them, get near enough to give Him your burdens. Many go, from week to week almost crushed beneath some great anxiety, which they uot only need not bear, but which it is, iu fact, sinful for them to bear. Christians are expressly commanded to “be anxious for nothing” (Phil. iv. 6;) and it must be sinful to disobey this command "But,” you ask, "how am I io avoid anxiety, when the,occasion thai natural ly produces it arises?” The answer You have an omnipotent Sa\ iour with you and in you, see (Rom. viii. 10, 11, also 2 Cor.'.xiii. 6), “unless you are a “reprobate” disapproved as backslider. Gun'a wWl gives no countenance to tny believer whose body is not a temple of the . Holy Spirit (1 Cor. iii. 16, also vi. 19.) Have you fallen below Ibis standaid? If so, you should get back as soon as possible. You most believe God’s word, oi you will, ol course, be the loser. Perhaps about the best the average be liever does ou this subject is to bear bis burden of anxiety until it becomes too ,vy for him, and then, alter a long straggle, casts it on the Saviour, and then finds partial or temporary relief, because bis faith is feeble and inconstant But their is a much better way than this; and this is suggested by a proper rendering ot the text quoted at the begining of this ar ticle. Literally rendered, the text reads thus: "Having cast (once for all, so as never to have any occasion to repeat your every anxiety on Him, for be carelb for you.” That Is, tbe believer should cast bis whole being upon Christ for time and eternity; and when this is really done, and be lives day by day in harmony with act of consecration, no burden of anxiety can while living thus, ever press bis spirit again. True, tbe occasions which tend naturally to produce anxiety may be of ten repeated in bis life; but they utterly fail to excite anxiety because bis heart under the dominion of Christ who dwells therein by faith (Epb. iii. 17), and keeps in perfect peace, for the reason that it stayed on him (Isa. xxvi. 8). Now, where there is “perfect peace,” there can no anxiety. Try it,reader. -Give your whole being to Christ, who has purchased yon with bis own precious blood; and then live in daily communion with him; and God word for it, yon will be kepi in perfect peace; and you will be kept thus till the end of life, if your mind is perpetually “stayed on Him.” God’s children are all invited to such a life as this. How strange that so few discern and walk this narrow, but blessed «i) I—Christian' Index. true to themselves, afford to dispense with tbe aids religion affords. Apart from the blessed after-life so clearly revealed, it the crowning glory of a noble character bpre. It is that alone that can give com pleteness, symmetry, and beanty to life, that alone invests it with its true signifi cance. If the young men desert the Ohuich, then social and national life will suffer incalculable loss. The wasting and destructive evils under which society now staggers uneasily will become greater and more burdensome If young men merely occupy a negative attitude in tbe strife be tween good and evil. Bat in that stern conflict there is to mutual standing ground He who knows what is in man said, "He that is not with me ii against me.” Oui young men, then, impelled by tbe loftiest considerations ought to ponder earnestly the question of their relation to the Church It has claims upon them.

St. Louis, Nov. 18.—It was rumored here that the whisky trust had pur chased the Central Distillery company of this city, the Dudson Distillery com pany of Cincinnati, the Star Distillery company of Pekin, Ills., and the Cres cent Distillery _ company also of Pekin. It was ascertained that the rumor was correct, and that the tftist had also pur chased the Nebraska Distillery compa ny of Nebraska. The purchase of the five concerns is said to be about one and three-quarter million dollars. Restriction* In Plato Glass. Pittsburg, Nov. 18.—The plate gin— manufacturers met again and doridnd to restrict their production. The dele- K tes stated that no combination had en formed and that no change wonld be made in the rate. “Aren’t yon ever going to grow old, Ilk. the rest of us?” asked a mao of an ac quaintance he bad n'l seen for some time. “Well, not so long as I can purify mi blood with Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,” was the apt reply. Tote man knew what he was talking about. WORK FOR ALL. Follower of Christ, is there not much for you to do? Sorely yon are not to be a mere lookerfon, like children and idlers watching a procession. Not to every man his, to every womman her, work. Do yon ask, "What shall I do?” Begin with wbat is at hand, and that done straightway something else will challenge you. The Sunday-school has need of yon and yon have need of it. The prayer-meeting has need of all, and who that wishes to grow in grace and render service in the king dom, can do Without the prayer-meeting? And there are tbe regular services of the sanctuary. What stimulus to CbriaUan activity, and tospiritnal fruitfulness would be tbe result of faithfulness here. It each man, each woman, would pray for and at tend these services only astbey might,what power would come to the churches! How the waste places wonld begin to blossom and yield as a garden. Faithful ness in these will not only afford opportu nity for other work at once, bnt quality for its experience. The time for rest gone by* Life never was so solemn and earnest. The world never was so needy. Oh for the spirit of fruitful work among us!—Exchange. YOUNG MEN AND RELIGION. Phil But Arthur had settled that questioL earlier in tbe day.
