ABOUT THE FOUR
GREAT PREACHER/
BY JONES HUSH.
In a recent issue of the Atlanta
Journal is an article over the sig
nature of Bishop Warren A. Can
dler, and in which the able and
noted writer refers to four great
preachers who lived and preached
in New York thirty years ago, and
then proceeds to give the charac
teristics of each one.
He designates Mr. Beecher us a
man of a colossal brain, and the
first preacher in point of intellect
on this side of the Atlantic if not
in the world.
Now, I very readily agree with
the Bishop in his estimate of Mr.
Beecher’s great talents. And I
wish to say right here that I was
not surprised when 1 learned that
Mr. Beecher did, during his last
years, dissent from some views or
opinions, which he may have en
tertained during his youthful days,
for a man of a gigantic mind who
accummulates knowledge rapidly,
an<l whoso judgement ripens as he
advances in years will, almost in
variably, change his mind on some
suujects. A man of Mr. Beecher’s
talent and information could not
conscientiously endorse all the
theological errors of the writers
contemporary with Luther, Cal
vin and Edwards.
Wo now have anew theology
which has superceded the old the
ology, and tho simple reason for
that is, that God continues to
reveal new truths to man, and
consequently religious teachers
now stand upon a higher plane,
mentally and religiously than
those who lived two or three hun
dred years ago.
Henry Warde Beecher’s vol
umnse of great sermons will be
read by thousands and even mil
lions of human beings who are
yet unborn. Even one single
volume of his prayers that are in
print will cause his name to live
during coming ages, and there are
thousands living who can never
forget the impression made on
their minds while listening to
the prayers of the eloquent divine
as they went up to the Throne of
Grace. For instance, one of the
most eloquent preachers that the
South has ever produced, had the
oppportunity once of hearing Mr.
Beecher preach, and though he
was unusually impressed with the
sermon, he was even more deeply
impressed with his prayer than
the sermon.
Even some of preachers ot Eng
land were compelled to hold their
breath, as it were, while listening
to the words of prayer as they es
caped from the lips of the great
American preacher.
After the 24thday of Oct., 1852,
when the great Daniel Webster
1 -- □" U’oml Ihmpluii*
Utility i%AV xsv y v-MVi
was regarded by competent judges
as the man of the most, lofty tal
ent on the American continent.
Though he was criticised by some
writers, it will never be known
this side of Jordan that he was
not orthodox in his religious
teachings.
This much is true, he was as a
preacher 50 years ahead ot his age,
and Henry Clay, as a statesman,
was liftv years in advance of his
age and every intelligent and well
informed man in our country is
obliged to know it. Beecher
was larger than the Congrega
tional church, and Talmage was
larger than the Presbyterian
: church. Neither one of them
would have been large enough if
he had not. been larger than the
church he belonged to.
The four great preachers,
Beecher, Storrs, Deems and Tal
mage have passed away, but not
until they had accomplished the
work for which they were sen
into the world to do. We have
no preachers now who possess as
lofty talents as they had: and the
| reason is we do not need them.
We have no statesmen who will
j measure up with the standard of
Clay and Webster. If we really
| needed such men, God would cer
| tainly give them to us: for He who

Is very careful about her churn.
She scalds it thouroughly after
using, and gives it a sun bath to
sweeten it. She knows that if her
churn is sour it will taint the but
ter that is made in it. The stom
ach is a churn. In the stomach
and nutritive tracts are performed
processes which are exactly akin
to the churning of butter. It is
not apparent then that if this
stomach churn is “sour” it sours
all which is put into it? The evil
of a foul stomach is not the bad
taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the cor
ruption of the pure current of the
blood and the dissemination of
disease throughout the body. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour stomach sweet. It
does for the stomach what the
washing and sun bath do for the
churn—absolutely removes every
tainting or corrupting element,
“Golden Medical Discovery” con
tains no alcohol, whiskey or other
intoxicant and no narcotic.

* EVADING THE LAW.
The Picture* of Flylnie Bird* In a
Mohammedan Moiyae.
According to one of the tenets of the
Mohammedan religion, it is a sin to
make a picture of any living thing. The
elaborate decorations of the palaces
and mosques of the east are almost ex
clusively made up of ingeniously inter
laced geometric designs, arabesques or
flowers, intermixed with sentences of
the Koran.
There is a belief among Mussulmans
that at the day of judgment Allah will
demand that the artist who has made
the image of a living thing shall endow
that image with life and that, failing to
do this, the artist Will be sent to perdi
tion for liis sin.
A gentleman who visited a mosque in
Algiers found that the tiles with which
the building is decorated, which are
very old and beautiful, are adorned
with flights of birds. He expressed sur
prise at this and asked if the command
against such representation were a
modern edict.
“Oh, no,” answered the pious Alge
rian to whom he addressed the ques
tion. “These are not pictures of living
birds.”
“But they are painted as if flying
across the tiles,” the other said in some
astonishment
“l'es,” the Mussulman replied, “but
do you not see that about the neck of
each there is a fine black line? That is
to show that the artist painted only
dead birds, and the command of the
Koran is not violated.”
Patchwork of Picture*.
Of all the quaint and varied sights
shown to the passing stranger, says
Navy and Army, perhaps there is none
more attractive than the officers’ quar
ters in the main guard of the citadel of
Valetta. Long ago some officer, find
ing the time hang heavy on bis hands
and having in him besides a turn for
sketching, bethought him to draw upon
the bare yellow washed wall of his un
garnished room a picture in colors.
The next officer probably thought he
could do as well or better, and he, too,
left his handiwork upon the walls, and
as years rolled by there grew up a
custom, now firmly established, for ev
ery regiment, serving in Malta and do
ing main guard duty to leave behind a
remembrance of itself in the shape of a
sketch on the walls in pencil, chalk or
paint. Thus now, instead of plain, un
lovely walls, exists this quaint irregu
lar patchwork of pictures, well known
throughout the services and to those
who use tliis highway to the east.
Overreached Ilerelf.
Some time ago in Devonshire there
were a pair courting named John and
Mary.
They had been courting for several
years, when Mary began to think John
was rather backward in popping the
question, so she, being anxious to get
married, thought she would try a
scheme of her own.
While out walking one day she said
blushingly, “John, what do you think
all the people in the village are say
ing?”
"I don’t know,” said John.
“Well, they all says that we are go
ing to get married.”
“Ah, ah,” said John. “Now we’ll
show ’em they’re mistaken, and we
won’t get married.” —London Answers.
A Matter of Name*.
A prominent New York lawyer, occa
sionally heard of in connection with
divorce cases, told the following:
“Some years ago I was retained by
an Australian banker’s daughter to se
cure her a divorce. After having ob
tained the decree I delivered it to her
and was surprised when she burst into
a roar of laughter after reading it.
“ 'What is so funny?’ I asked.
“ ‘Why, look here,’ replied the di
vorcee. ‘Look at the names—“Dono
hue.” justice; “O’Byrne,” referee;
“Keenan,” county clerk. Why,’ she
mirthfully added, ‘when I return home
to my parents they’ll say, “You went
to Ireland for your divorce, not to
America.” ’ ’’
Game Dock.
Game duck of all sorts should be
roasted quickly in a hot oven and are
considered best when very rare. The
blood should always fallow the knife
when carving the breast of n duck. It
is not possible to limit the roasting of
a duck to any number of minutes; it
depends entirely upon the temperature
of the oven. If a game duck is being
roasted for men. it should be much
rarer than when it is to be eaten by
women.
The Happy Fnmlly.
The proprietor of a German menag
erie keeps caged together a lion, a ti
ger, a wolf and a lamb, which he la
bels “The Happy Family.” When
asked confidentially how long these
animals had lived together, he an
swered:
“Ten months; but the lamb has to be
renewed occasionally.” Philadelphia
Times.

“If I were the mayor.” remarked the
stranger who had attended a meeting
of the city council. “I wouldn’t permit
the aldermen to waste so much time in
useless wrangling over trivial matters."
“The mayor knows what' he is about,”
replied the citizen. “When they’re
wrangling, they’re not doing any mis
chief.”—Chicago Tribune.

“Night falls, but it doesn’t break,” ob

BRAINS AND BEVERAGES.
Famom literary Light* "Who Rev
eled la Coffee aad Tea.
Famous literary men have all had
their favorite beverages.
Tea and coffee, however, head the
list, and these two drinks, which the
famous William Cobbett denounced as
“slops,” have been the means of spur
ring many a drowsy journalist to re
newed energy.
Voltaire, the king of wits and littera.
teurs, was a confirmed coffee drinker.
In his old age he often took fifty cups
a day, which sadly hurt his digestion
and hastened his death. Balzac never
drank anything else but coffee, and
during the early hours of the morning,
for he began at 12 o’clock midnight, he
used to take copious drafts of this
stimulating drink.
Sir James Macintosh was so fond of
coffee that he used to assert that the
powers of a man’s mind would gener
ally be found to be proportional to the
quantity of that stimulant which he
drank. Cowper pays a tribute to tea in
the “Task” when he says “the cup that
cheers, but not inebriates.” He was
very fond of the Chinese beverage.
But the king of tea drinkers was Sam
uel Johnson. On one occasion Sir Josh
ua Reynolds reminded the great man
that he had drunk eleven cups of tea,
whereupon Johnson retorted: “Sir, I
did not count your glasses of wine.
Why then should you number my cups
of tea?”
A Protest That Failed.
“During my stay in the City of Mexi
co,” says a well known Philadelphian,
“I went out one Sunday to see a bull
fight It’s the proper thing to do, you
know. All the American tourists go.
Seated very near to me in the raised
benches of the amphitheater was a Ger
mantown woman whom I know by
sight as an enthusiastic member of the
Society For the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals. She is one of those who
insist upon showing a badge every
time a driver uses a whip on a balky
horse and demanding an arrest
“Well, she had her little badge on all
right, and when the fight between the
bull and the picadors became pretty
hot she jumped up in her seat and de
manded that it be stopped. ‘Stop this
at once,’ she shouted, waving her arms.
‘Sit down, Maud, and don’t make a fool
of yourself!’ exclaimed her husband.
But she insisted upon having her own
way. ‘I am a member of the Penn
sylvania Society For the Prevention o(
Cruelty to Animals,’ she declared, wav
ing the lapel of her coat that contained
the button. ‘I demand that this butch
ery shall cease.’ Everybody laughed at
her, and after awhile she went out,
taking her husband with her.”—Phila
delphia Record.
Cloth* or Clothe*.
One learns many strange uses and
misuses of things at country inns, but
let us hope that the following expe
rience related by a friend of mine as
having happened to himself is a rare
one: He had gone to bed in an Irish
inn, bidding the landlady to have him
called at 8. At G, however, next morn
ing, she knocked at his door.
“Ye’ve to git up,” she said.
“What o’clock is it?”
“Six. surr.”
“Go away. I am not going to get up
till 8.”
At 7 she reappeared. “Indade, and
ye must git up now. It’s 7.” Finding
him unmoved at her next return, she
said: “Git up, there’s a sweet gintle
man. There’s two commercial gintle
men waiting for their breakfast, and I
can’t lay the cloth till I have yer hon
or’s top sheet.” —Cornhill Magazine.
With All My Worldly Good*.
A minister whose first parish was in
the backwoods of the west some years
ago says that he ouce married a very
seedy looking bridegroom to a buxom
girl of perhaps twenty years. The cere
mony was performed in the log cabin
home of the bride’s parents, and there
were many guests present. When the
bridegroom repeated the words, “With
aii my woridiy goods I thee endow,” a
tall, lank fellow with a huge tobacco
cud in his bulging cheek drawled out
nasally:
“Thar goes Hank’s bull terrier, by
gum!”—Lippincott’s Magazine.
The Death Chair.
Doubt is often cast upon electrocu
tion as a system by the fact that per
sons may survive an accidental shock
of 2.000 volts. The Electrical World
and Engineer points out that the condi
tions of a chance contact are entirely
different from those provided in the
chair, it says. “There can be no ques
tion that the subject dies by the effects
of the electric shock and is dead be
yond all hope before the autopsy takes
place.”
Pare Blood.
If infectious disease is in the vicini
ty, it should be remembered that pure
blood contains bodies that will combat
disease germs. These bodies are the
white corpuscles, and they will en
wrap and actually devour the fatal
bacilli of fevers and similar diseases.
So it is well to keep the vital fluid in
health.
