MAGAZINES FOR JUNE. 1- I .overs of magazim r. hail with pleasure . the middle of each month. From the I.sth to the J-'d our magazines commence to bo laid upon our table and we know tin re is an intellectual treat in store for us. The temptation to lay down work ami take up a magazine is irresistible, mid lienee for a time one forgets the old adage. ‘ “All work and no play," and passes awaj' an hour or so. not in play altogether, but ’ in enjoying the thoughts and writings ot many of our most gifted authors. There is on our table now - the June numbers of Scribner. Harper. Home Com panion, Ladies’ Home oJurnal, Leslie National and several others, all filled. t with good things too numerous to rm n tion, but appreciated. It is of a new magazine that we would say a few words. The June number of the Book Lovers' Magazine comes to us (if possible) in a more attractive form than any of the former numbers. The out ; side cover catches the attention first—a rich brown cover lettered in gold and on a crimson ribbon that passes gracefully across the book is suspended a pictured face of a lovely girl in a miniature frame, ail so natural that one imagines a real ribbon and locket of gold. J’he covet only gives you a faint idea of the treas ures within. j The first article Is by Dr. S. D. McCon nell and exceedingly interesting in structive, “Beyond Three Score and Ten.'’ MISCEGENATION. Frank Orme says in the March num ber of The Alkahest that the miscegena tion of the black and white races, 'if not .the sum of all villainies.’ would be like giving of the franchise to the negro, the sum of all blunders ami disasters." He might have gone further and pro nounced it. an unpardonable sin of the white race; for an unpardonable sin is one that destroys an Individual or a race. From the best ethnological data., the negro was before Adam, mingling with superior races and always subordinate; and yet. Ilk" the saurian holding his own 1 throughout the ages, for the reason that tlie negro blood is able to reassert it.- If : in later generations, while the white ; grows yellow and dies. The Creator has given the negro the ; greater animality, and the Caucasian a superior intellect to protect itself from : the animal man—the hegots -the Loki of civilizations; but since antediluvim times the sons of G-od have taken unto them- j selves the daughters of men, and tie, auso j cf it nations have gone down many i sunk in oblivion The destructive principles of miscegena- i tfon Is better understood by the world of ! today; for it has not only the history of • past ages as illustrations, but scientific lore points out the peril of race amalga mation. According to a. scientific fact, I Ham could not have been black, unless I Noah’s generations were not as pure as I he thought, and the unnatural miscegena- | tion with a race of greater animalism was revealed in that offspring. “The white man's burden” of the present day was first caused by the igno rance and greed of nations, and as it grows heavier must at last bring disaster and destruction, unless the. white race can spttlo the question intelligently; ; otherwise unborn generations will neces- i sarily suffer and perhap* be less able to ■ cope with the destructive influences at I work. The race problem should be sot- ’ tied now and for all time, and colonization ' is the quickest and surest way, and the! only hope of Caucasian purity. When the white man found that the In- > diai. was treacherous rind worthless ho I sent him out; but the negro, who has not ! only caused the best blood of our land to ' flow. leaving thousands of desolate widows and orphans, but the mconstruc tb.n regime must heap indignities and glut Ils [lower by turning a smnl-bar barous people free to control and corrupt our political existence. With all this the south made the best of a bad situation, and endeavored to help educate this l.orde, even at the exuense of her own children, although reviled in the most in sulting manner by some northern writers. These evils raised a greater barrier be tween the sections. It Is lime now that “tlie twilight of the gods" were passed, tha.t tlie day may dawn for those who, pure and innocent, would not If they could, suffer such degrading influences in our national life. j Everyone knows that it is more neces sary that the United States preserve her moral integrity and racial purity than to extend her commercial interests, and that the safety of mothers and daughters is of more Import than political Interests; and ye.t we see the negro even more per verted by the pernicious Influences of Ig norant enthusiasts and unscrupulous poli ticians. The landed aristocrat hns not only placed his Italian tenants with the negro, but forces them to occupy the same house with only a. partition wall between them. This arrangement Is re sented by both the Italian and negro, who are helpless in the clutches of greed. Can we wonder that 'here are straggling • negro brutes? ; The white representatives of our coun try have shown their inability to protect the women of the white race, when in stead of removing the dangers that beset them, a howling mob tortures a. criminal at the stake, rakes the ashes for souve nirs and goes home content, when they could remove for all time the evil In our midst. The preamble of the constitution of the United States reads: “We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish Justice, insure domestic tran quility. provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution for the United State's of America.” | The lack of intelligence and benevo lence on the part of the legislators, the voters and the would-lte educators, have produced the reverse for which the con stitution was formed, and when one of the greatest' and most noxious agents, that is used to destroy out liberties, causing strife betv/on the sort ions and many other degenerating influences, is asked to bo removed the cry comes: “It cannot be done; it. is unconstitutional.” The w'hite man of the United States does not carry the burden of the race problem because he must, but because he THE WKEKLY CONSTITUTION: ATLANTA. GA.. MONDAY. JUNE 8, 1903. will. He fears chaos, while ho creates it. He claims to bo honest and chivalrous, when he does not know, nor cares for tiheir true meaning. But if the white rep resentatives cannot understand how the burden may bo lifted the mothers and daughters can teach them, just as they have ever done where mercy and justice are meted to the weak and helpless. The negro, as did the poor Indian, Is crying, “White man, let me go;" then why must this Internal strife continue its corruption of our national life, and mothers and daughters be sacrificed to lust and mammon?

H Layne, Van, Vanyandt county, Texas? INFORMATION COLUMN. The best method of washing a large rug is to stretch and tack it upon a < lean floor, then scour it well with soap suds. After the scouring it must be thoroughly rinsed to remove all trace of tlie animal matter in the soap, after which it should not be removed until it 1s perfectly dry. Then it will not shrink, and will lie perfectly flat upon the floor. For an oily skin wash your face every night with warm water in which pow dered borax has been dissolved, the proportion being a half teaspoonful of borax to a quart of water. Use no soap. Once a week, after washing and drying the face, apply a lotion made of tincture of benzoin, ounce; orange flower water, one-half pint; rectified spirits, two ounces. For the red spots on your face stir two teaspoonfuls of flowers of sulphur into pint of new milk. D’t it stand fifteen minutes, and then rub the spots with it every night until a cure is effected. To remove mildew, mix lemon juice with .-all. powdered staiv-h and soft soap. Applj with a brush an| jay in the sun; or you may rub soap on the spots, scrape ! ( balk on them, moisten and lay in the ! sun. CORRECTION. The address of Miss Grace Smith should have been Fyff". Ala., and not Florida. I Miss Mary trdis. Sturlington. Ala.

Codner, East Nn hols, N. Y.— I have been a subscriber of The Consti tution only a short time and would like to tell the Kingdom sisters a little about the place where I live. We had the warmest March In the record of the state, but it has been very cold and windy ever since. May 1 the thermom eter stood at. .17 below freezing and May 22 it was 22 degrees below freezing. May 1 we had a small snowstorm, but to day, May 14, it is very warm and pleas ant. Cherry trees are now In full bloom but no gardens planted yet. There is no corn planted here yet. I will send a lobster cactus to all of the Kingdom sis ters that will send 5 cents postage and a self-addressed stamped envelope. I I like The Constitution very much and | hope it will live to a ripe old age. DR. BROUGHTON’S SERMON Dr Len G. Broughton continues his series of sermons on the representative women of the Bible. The character se lected Is “The Witch of Endor,” In treat ing her character he dealt, with the present day witchery. He placed Chris tian Science and spiritualism alongside of tlie witch. “Then said Saul unto his servants. Seek mo a woman that hath a. familiar spirit, that I may go to her and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor. ' 1 Samuel xxviii. 7. 1 make no apology for placing this old witch in the catalogue of the representa tive women of the Bible. Although her profession was a despised one and con demned by God. yet she stands for a type of people that have ever lived. It is interesting to see how many peo- i [>le th( re are today who can be influenced ; by witchery Some tlrm ago 1 bad a i talk on this line wlt/h a. very prominent ' and cultured man. A man. by the way. I who occupied a very conspicuous place in | Christian work. I was surprised to find that he bad consulted a spiritualist in Washington not long since. He had gone there to secure a ve.ry prominent appoint ment, and he was about losing hope wlr u he concluded that ho would consult this old witch. He said it was a very won derful performance she carried him through, but finally she came out. with the proper information. She told him that he might, go home, that it was very doubtful about, his appointment. He took her advice and went home. In a few days the appointment was made. .'.nd. sure enough, he was le£X out. “Now," said he to me. "how did she know that?” “Why." said 1. "I could have told you all that before you left home.” The spirit of witchery is by no means dead. Back in Ihe. law God declared against it. Leviticus xx, 6: "And tho soul that, turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them. I will oven set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.” God fearing people have gone right on with their spiritualistic practices. Great sys tems have be-n built on it. Upon it fortunes have been staked. Dejncsti" and social relations have beqn broken up. Only a short time ago I read of a fam ily that was separated forever by the mischievous meddling of an old gifisy witch. Os course, witchery Is more pow erful in some sections and among some people than others. Take the negro for example. He is more frightened by the apeparance of a witch in his house tbm by smallpox and yellow fever combined. I have beard of their staying up all night and burning rags, as they say, to stench the witches away. I sunpose, now they smoke cigarettes instead of burning ; rags. I nin sure it would be a more I stenching process. The Negro and Ghosts. Joe Price North Barulina's great negro orator, used to toll this story: He sai<j it ocurred in his neighborhood. An old colored man was employed to sleep at a white man's house during the family's absence. Some wild boys who know of the old man's opinion of ghosts went one night with white sheets around them and stood before the window. The old man broke the door down and ran for dear life. Tlie sheet ghosts ran after him. i Finjill.x. th" “Id mam's strength was ex- I hausted, and lie sat down on the roadside.

The Witch of Endor. Ail this is related to wttctiery. Toe witch of Endor made herself famous by working it. Many an old snake-eyed woman since has done the same thing. The witch of Endor had a good (flianee to get fame. King Saul, the once promts Ing young ruler, had by pride and power fallen Into sin and corrupted his eo.m try. He was guilty of almost every sin in the catalogue. The murder of eighty live priests was one of the sins that j stained his heart. He despised every i thing that was good, and honored every- I thing that was evil. He had run this I course until his conscience could stand |no more. He knew that the Philistines . were being marshaled to overpow '" him. ' He felt great jealousy concerning David, whom 11*? tried to Kill. In tills p< t*- dicament he grew desperate. He had called on God and felt that. His ears were closed.

Go where you please and you will find that the spiritualistic tads are championed by woman. Modern spiritualism, new thoughtism. Chrl.-tian Science and the like, are all headed by woman. This is a fact well worthy of study. Eating- His Own. Now it must be remembered that Saul had previously ordered all the tribe of witches to be put out of the country. But there were a few left who worked i their tricks on tlie sly. The witch of Endor was one of them. There Is noth ing known of her except in connection with this incident. She is called tlie woman of Endor, doubtless because she worshipped the God Endor. The servants I remembering tins woman referred tho I king to her. So it night when the armies | were quiet the king made his way over I to her place. In order to escape del'-'- I tion he di-giii- ' J himself.

The re quest Saul makes Is, "Bring him up whom 1 shall name unto thee.” Then the old witch said, “S.in. hath cut off those tha.t have familiar spirits.” But he assured her “no harm shall befall thee.” Then she said, "Whom wilt thou that I bring up for thee’.'” Saul an Bwercd "Samuel. ' Samuel had long lw u dead. JI" was a man greatly honored “1 God ami lowM by ail his people. No wonder how Saul turned to him. He had once despised him. His r. igu had mocked Sanin •! from the b-'giniiiup bu; now ho Is troubled and sees differently. Is it not a pity the world has to be carri-'-d through the school of trouble to learn the b st lessons. The Seance in Progress. But we are not yet through with that little seance Hi re In tlie room. The old witch ea Is for Samuel, and when she pi-etends to see him she turns to Saul and screams, "Why hast thou deceived me? Thou are Saul.” But Saul said, “Be not afraid. Who sawest thou" ’ She sitH. ”1 saw gads amending out tlie earth.’' Then Saul slid, "ATal form I- he of?' 1 She said. “An old m.iji with a i mantle.

G"t again the Ida-e I and the persons and the condition of 1 Saul's mind ami consemm-e. The ghost Samuel sp- ahs to Saul, "Why | hast thou di.-'i[uicte(l m to r; mg me up?” I Saul answers. “I am sor.- (listi'e.-sed; I for the Philistines make war :u; bust me i and G“d is - departed irom me, and an- ; swei rh me no mare, neither by prophets ■ ! tier by <1: arus: therefore 1, have called 1 i thee, that, thou maxes: make known, unto | I m" what I shall dr..

The philist Ines did rise up ami over- i power him; tuid "ather than endure de- ; feat, Saul took his own life. Poor man! i How a great life is ruined by sin It j should be a great warning to us today. The Merits of Witchery. But wliat of the merits of witeiiery? Was this case a genuine communi ation between spirits? Did the vja h bring Samuel up and did Saul actually talk with him To both of these questions I must. ; answer, no. First, 1 do not belierye that any human poxver can call a sou! froth the other world. This does not im-an that departed spirits may not, in a sense, com municate with tlie earth, but it is not for a human being, whetlier spiritualist, or wit« h, to command such spirits. Again, if it is argued that, the witch of Emior ami her successors today who go under different mimes have divine poxver imparted unto them so that they may command spirits, we must remember that God has forbidden spiritualism in the laxv already quoted Is it like God to forbid it and then aid it by turning ote-- to them tlie spirits in the s[Arit world'? It only needs a. little Bible knowledge and "otnmon s— rhe folly of such a tiling. But how about Saul's conversation with Samuel'.’ I don’t beli'-x’o be ev.-r ha.l any. The whole tiling is the Holy Spirh's r.-<"- ord of a spiritualistie seam.-". The truth Is there, but it is left for us to work it out. First of all. it is not stated that Saul saw Samuel. The witch said site saw ‘an ; old man with a mantle." It was Saul who said, "Samuel. ' Why did he say this? First, !>■ -a us- It-- l ol Samuel on th" brain. Second, the description which she gaxe was like Samuel. The cltaraetor of the. ghost's instructions also xvas contrary to Samuel. Th“ com plaint which he made xvas nothing new. Samuel himself had made all this com- i plaint at tile time xvlten Satti disobeyed God in the matter of protecting Amelek and sparing the best sheep and gor ts to be of ft .-(I -is . acriii"-. t God had d 'cftired that everything should be destroyed. Saul, hoxvever. like many of us today, thought ho could improve on ' Gori'S plan', so he kept back a part. Samuel xvas God’s instrument in giving Saul the commandment, an so he xvas ’ God's instrument in [ironouncing lodgment ' upon him. This had all been previous!." gone over, and Saul knew it, and therefore could easily have supposed, under the mesmer istic influences of the old witch, that Samuel, who she had said was there, was saying it all. Again Saul’s future home, as declared by the ghost, xvas incompatible with the teaching of Samuel. Samuel is credited with saying. “Tomorrow thou and thy sons shall be with me.” Samuel was in heaven. Was Saul and his wicked sons to be with him? Certainly this is read into the whole slorv by the witch her self. Mind and Matter. There was no God in that seance. I do not say that II" is not in any psychic phenomena. 1 thoroughly believe in the laws of psychology. Tho influence the mind has over th" body is a xvonderful fact. Physicians and publi- men every where recognize this fact. This is hoxv under hypnotic influences a patient, xvid have a tumor extracted without knoxvlhg it. Thousands of people have been cured b.\’ the same laxv. They have imagined themselves sick ’until they are si<-k, and then they imagine thems(?lves xxell until they are well. Christian Science Imagination. This is the basis of so-called t’hristian Science. They get people I > believing a thing is so until in some instances it is so. The sad part of this practice ts that they offer no solution to the man whose imagination is not lik" a chameleon— fits aiiyxvbere and any thing Again they pretemi to build at mud tlii- little frag ment of science which they haw, the church of Jesus Chri'fi. Christ xvas never intended to (l ister His religion around healing “f any j'"''. xvln ther psychic o- by i>ra;.‘ i- ami mith or by the scion ■■ of drugs. The r< 'igi 'n of Christ clusters around .in ami the sinner. That is the first great, fact in His religion. Everything el:— is inci dental. Spiritualism, Christian Science imagination, you are ami you ainl.ism, new thoughtism, card tricks, palmistry, gi[>s\- fortune telling, table walking—ail Hies'’ and other kindred phases of xvitch ery are .only a part of tlie great laxv of psychology, to be explained by the influc-ne'’ of the mind over matter. Anx r one of them has just as much right to be called a religion as another. There is not erne of them that can penetrate the beyond. None of them ian foretell. It is'only the thing that is already in mind that can be read ->r t id oven in p.-nt. This is xvliy the seeking of sir'll things is forbidden by the word of God.
