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 Wo now have anew theology which has superceded the old the ology, and tho simple reason for that is, that God continues to reveal new truths to man, and consequently religious teachers now stand upon a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 Lis infinite in wisdom knows what THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, MAY 15, 1902. fiiUGura PILLS CUTICURA RESOLV ENT PILLS (Chocolate Coated, 60 doses, 25c.), are anew, tasteless, odourless, economical substitute for the celebrated liquid CUTI CURA RESOLVENT, as well as for all other blood purifiers and humour cures.

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.

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. Knew HU Bnilnru. “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.

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.
