"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.

DOWNED THE SOUTHERN.
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

pleteness, symmetry, and beanty to life,
that alone invests it with its true signifi

suffer incalculable loss. The wasting and

A Bis Whisky Combine.
St. Louis, Nov. 18.—It was rumored
here that the whisky trust had pur

It was ascertained that the rumor was

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.
