Kvanpcliat Stuart discoursed ou
' Worldly Amusements" at the mornitij!
service at Kdcnton Street Church jester-
The theatre, dancing and progressive
euchre parties wire ciiticized in severe
language. The church was well filled,
aud the remarks of the divine was the
occasion of much comment during the
day.
"1'he Milk-White Flag," the attrac
tion at ihe Academy of Musie Wednes
day night, was arraigned as an immoral
production. Evangelist Siuart said lie
hoped the lime would come when Do de
cent woman would enter a theatre.
The evangelist took as his text the
second, third and fourth verses of the
fifteenth chapter uf St, John, which are
as follows :
"Kvety branch in me that beareth not
fruit he taketh away; and every branch
that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it
may bring forth more fruit.
"Now yo are clean through the word
which I have spoken unto you,
"Abide in me, and I in you. As the
branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except
it abide in the vine, no more can ye, ex
cept ye abide in me."
"My people were Presbyterians," the
evangelist declared, "and I am Presbyte
rian warp and Methodist filling.
"Move away from sin and let there be
no middle ground. Do like Moses did
move clear away, Be extreme in moving
away from sin. The devil doesn't want
you to move into the kingdom. Just be
an average Christian, is often heard; and
I want to say that most average Christ
ians are going to hell,
"When my children go aslray I'll quit
preaching. I got a letter yesterday from
Methodist preacher, who told me I ought
not lo make that assertion. Said he,
"There are some of the best Methodist
ministers who have wicked children.' If
we can't save our own families, then
whuse families can we save? If I can''
save my children, preaching, then I'll go
home. Methodists whu can't save their
children better give up. I an not going
to let my children live iu sin t single
day. If I had an unsaved child in my
h niie today I would continue crying and
praying until they were saved.
"The most consummate selfishness in
this life is the sight of a father grabbing
on to tilings of this world and allowing
his son to goto hell.
Have you got any dancing children
in the church? Is there any theatre
going childreo in your Sunday school?
God have mercy on the parents who
shove their children off to hell! I'd
rather cut my right arm off than to see
my child play cards,
Xo man's arm can go around my
daughter's waist until the is married.
I've got a contempt for that business.
Wheu so-called childten of God go at it,
I've got a Contempt that I can't express
If you want your wile to dance with
some man's arm around her waist, then
you urea different man from me.
I've got as much respcot for a black
let: gambler aa I have for a hifalutin wo
man who plays progressive euchre fur
piit. What's the difference between
playing lor a five-dollar bill aud cut-glass?
The ooe's dressed up and the other's not.
One is as good ts Ihe other, morally
speaking. I believe the gambler is the
better of the two, for he doesn't profess
to W anything. Society and folks get
so low snmuimes they don't luow where
to stop."
"Look at the pictures of that 'Milk.
White Flag' company," Ihe evangelist
said. "A picture of the show presents
three women standiug up with short
dresses lo their knersl Do you call that
a mural picture? Do you call it a virtu

Praisj for the goodness of Ood is
never out of place and never unseason

lays set apart by official appointment to
notice the mercies which have followed
us, the blessings which wo have enjoyed,
the kind interpositions which have been
unide iu our behalf, the bounties which
have been bestowed upon us in order that
wc may render again to Ood for all his
benefits with festive joy and heartfelt
thankfulness.
The establishment of a day of thanks
giving in the late autumn, after the in
ulhering of the fruits, was made by the
early settlers of Xew Kngland, in iuiila
tinn of the feast of tabernacles held by
the Jewish nation. It was a wise and
pious act, and its adoption by most of the
stales and at length by the general govern
ment of this broad laud is an evidence of
the diffusion of those religious sentiments
which were at the foundation of the settle
ment of this country.
We may welcome this annual thanks
giving today with the added interest
which venerable custom has thrown
around il, with the pleasing memories
which early associations weave about our
former celebrations of it, with the recol
lections of absent friends who have
it with us, the reunion of families, the
merry laugh of children, the pleasure of
parents and hail its advent as a day of
sacred and social joy.
It should bo observed with happy
hcartB and cheerful Voices, and for the
time at least the sigh of sorrow should
be hushed and the tear of grief restrained
Vihile full scope is given to all the kind
lier emotions of our nature. Let
crowd iulo its flying hours the pleasant
memoties of the past, the happiuess nl

Let us make il, so far as we can,
day of grateful n juicing, aud, while we
parluke freely of the bounties uf the year,
give loose rein to the sweet sympathies
f humanity and dispense with a liberal
hand and a benevolent spirit to those
that have need, so that (he voice of glad

imitation of the time honored custom
of our fathers and in obedience to the
language of Scripture, let us "eat the fal

ARE ALL LOVERS LIARS.
A MINISTER'S NOVEL THEME.
A l llT STONY.
Lovers everywhere are called to the
defense by the statement made in a ser
mon last Sunday night by the Rev. II.
Stephens.pastor of a Methodist church
in Washington, D. C.
Il is that more deception is practiced
between lovers than by politicians. Dr.
Slovens' flock was startled, even shocked
by his new pronunciarnento.
Strangely ctiough tha doctor's text
was: "It is not good that man should
be alone."
Here ia part of what the doclor said
in the course of his novel and interesting
iscourse :
"My object in selecting this text,"
said the niinistr r, "is to make a special
talk on the morality of courtship and
marriage. Some people think tins is not
a proper subject to be handled in the
pulpit, but I I hi nk it is, bio one it is a
subject that is handled in the word of
Ood. As to c ourlship I have only to
say that young people should be jmt ns
houest in courting as they are iu other
relations of life. As a neuoral thing,
this is not truo. There are many false
hoods told and more deception practiced
among courting people thau there is even
among politicians. X young man has
a moral right to pay any special attention
to a young woman without acquainting
her with the object of his visits, and no
young woman should encourage the seri
ous attention of a young man she would
not marry. If she does, she is not what
she should be. The affection of the
heart is too sacred to be trill d will), and
the professional flirt should be made to
feel that decent society has absolute con
tempt for her.
"No young man or woman who is
what he or she should be will try to pay or
accept the serious Attention of more than
oue person at a single time. Courting
outht to be a religious business, and if
there were more religion and common
sense used in courtship, there would be
fewer uuhappy marriages and divorce
suits and more happy homes. The
institution of marriage rests its founda
tion on the command of God and the re
quirements of our human nature. This
being the case, all men should marry ex
cept those who may be barred by some
mental or lawful cause. 1 bat it is not
good for man to be alone is proved by
the fact that the m.ijoriiy of criminals in
our jails are either old bachelors or spin
sters. Xeither is it good for woman to
be alone, for the same command that
Tit-liitB gives the world this story of
domestic felicity, a counterpart of which
is found in many a household :
"James, dear, will you biing mc up a
scuttle of coal from the cellar?" said a
busy wife.
"That's just the way with yuu," said
James, with a frown, as he put down his
book and rose from the armchair.
"Just the way with me?"
"Yen," lie snapped. "As soon as you
see me enjoying myself you have some
thing or other fm mc to do. Don't you
sen I was absorbed in my reading?"
"Well, dear, I will do it myself."
"Yes, aud tell everybody your moth
er especially that you have to carry
your owo coal up from the cellar. No,
I'll do it. Let mc mark my place."
So he marked the place in the book at
which he had cesscd reading, and when
he went down to Ihe cellar, grumbling
all the way, she picked up the volume,
aud found it was a love-story, and that
the passage that he bad been absorbed in
was as follows :
"My darling, when you are my wife
I will shield and protect you from every
care. The winds of beaveo shall not
visit your face too roughly; those pretty
hands shall never be soiled by menial
tasks; your wish shall he my law; your
happiness "
Just then he re appeared, and, drop
ping the scuttle upon the flour, said:
There's your coal I Give me my
book."

Henry Clay was at one time considera
bly distressed by a large debt due to the
bank. Some of his friends heard of this
and quietly raised the money and paid
off the debt without notifying Mr. Clay.
n utter ignorance of what had been go-

and, addressiog the cashier, said : "I

cht of miue to the lank."
You don't owe us anything," was the

Mr. Clay looked inquiringly and said:
You don't understand me. I came to

"You don't owe us anything."
"Why! How am I to understand
you?"
"A oumber of your friends have con
tributed and paid off that debt, and you
do not owe this bank a dollar."
The tears rushed to Mr. Clay's eyes,
and, unable to speak, he turned and
walked out of the bank.

just s drcsscd-up signboard that will flirt
for hours with an addle-pated masher in
a clean paper oollar, but if s young man
with a solid lining to his head starts talk
ing she'll give about two square inches
of yawn every five minutes. Of course,
we only write this out of spite, because
we are as homely as a used-up batb brick,
and the last time we engaged a pretty
eirl with our well-known brilliancy of
wit and conversation, she bad to own
that if she hadn't had her pug dog with
her she'd have felt quite lonely.
You cannot have much interest in
heaven when your principal is all on
earth.
It is bettor to make mistakes in trying
than to make the mistake of Dot trying
at all.
