ALL OF ONE FAMILY, fa UNCLE HIRAM ON HIGHER CRITICISM. Me and Martha heard the lecture At the church the other day, An' I'd really like to tell you, What the preacher had to say; For he talked in measured rhythm On the "higher criticism," An' he said, ole-fashioned doctrines Now have mostly passed away. " An' he said, the light o' science Had full many .converts won Since the higher criticism Had its noble work begun. Jest as if the light o man , Could illuminate God's plan; Jest as if a tallow candle Could illuminate the sun, An' he told how evolution Had improved the human face; How environment assisted To ameliorate the race, He harranged the congregation Over transsubstantiation, But he scarcely touched the topio Of the power o' saving grace. Me an' Martha sat an' listened, But we didn't understand What this high-toned city preacher Tried to figure out so grand. It was all too deep for me; For I really could not see How it helped us on our journey To the bright celestial land, Why this higher criticism? Why this theorizing crave? Prying into plans eternal; Doubting God's mysterious ways, When the Bible reads so clearly, Here's a sample I love dearly, . An' its got enough o' gospel For the balance of my days: "Come ye weak an' heavy laden, Come, an' I will give thee rest: Drop thy load of sin an' sorrow; Lay thy head upon my breast." Why don't every gospel preacher Try to follow the Great Teacher, Both in walk an' conversation, If they want their labors blest. I suppose the world's advancing At a very rapid rate; An' my pore old-fashioned notions, May be sadly out o' date, But I'll give this word o' warning, On the resurrection morning Higher criticism lectures Won't unlock the golden gate.

While the ChristiSn Endeavorers were in Boston recently holding their annual convention many incidents occurred pro vocative of mirth. Among the stories told to them was one concerning a peri patetic of the barefooted variety and a farmer, who was also a church deacon. Tbe deacon was taking lunob under bis own vine and fig tree and unto him the peripate said : "Sir, I'm very hungry." "You haven't boon shaved," replied the deacon. "No, but I'm very hungry." "You're very dirty into the bargain," "Yes, but I'm very hungry." Well, can you say the Lord's prayer ?" "No, I can't." "Will you say it for a pieoe of bread?" "I will." The deacon started in with "Our Father," at the same time cutting off a slice as he enunciated the words, The tramp repeated "Our Father," then sud denly asked : "Did you say 'Our Father?'" "Yes, 'Our Father. " "Step a moment," continued the dirty man, "Xou mean your tathur and my father." I do," answered the deacon. "Then we are brothers," triumphantly proceeded the unshaved. "We are." "Then, for our father's sake, cut that bread thicker and cut it quicker." PROVERBS FOR ADVERTISERS. The man who is above imitating tbe methods of others need never be afraid of beiog imitated.

Do we dread death on tbe same prin ciple that he'f a flock of sheep leap through a certain hole in a fence be cause tbe other hilf bss done so? For unions tbe fear be tradilionary and hered itary it is hard to account for it. Death is a chsoge, occupying a mo ment, fiom one form of life to another. Whether it oomes in tbe oourse of nature or by accident or design, it is seldom pain ful; never probably so painful as a bout of the toothache. It brings us from a condition of bondage and uncertainty at best to one of freedom and security. But often it is a chsnge from slavery, both physical apd moral, to emancipation com paratively perfect, or, if we hold the materialist view, to everlasting uncon sciousness. I be spiritual slate is eman cipated from the inertia of matter and the tyranny of space; therefore thought will be presence, and a man's surround ings as to both tbiog and person will be inevitably such as are most desirable to bim. The evil will be emancipated from the opposition of tbo good, and the good will not be grieved and hampered by the machinations of the evil. The whole chapter of accidents which here looms so large will there be eliminated. Time, whioh now makes us long for the arrival of an appointed hour and now dread its too speedy ooming, will be no more. But we sball measure life by its intensity and by its opportunities Io other wordi-, we shall be the makers of our own limes and seasons. Death takes us from a world of effects to one of causes. The soul is made of will and thought, aod, as we may daily peroeive, it is only the obstruction of material conditions that prevents us from immediately accomplishing our desires and beholding the realization of our thoughts. Again, death is inevitable to all and to any one who chooses is at any momont attainable. By what logio can our fear of it be defended ? Yet we fear it so much and so uni versally that our entire social fabric is built largely upon that fear. Our law makes death tbe supreme penalty. Our funerals are occasions of mourning, and the medical profession, one of the most numerous extant, spends its existence in combatiog death. We seek eagerly all nostrums or elixirs ihst promise us con tinuance of life. We ascribe Bupreme merit to the soldier who risks his life for is country or to the individual who sacrifices it for others. We laud the stoicism which affects to despise death, but which bases tbe virtue of that de spising upon the acknowledged terror of the event. Our humanitarians upeod sympathy and money in attempting to prolong the miserable oondition of the poor and diseased. We shudder to bear of a vast natural calamity like that of Martinique or of avoidable accidents such as are furnished daily by railroads and other instruments of civilisation. And 11 the while it is the survivors who suf fer, if any one does, though tbey, too, are soon eomforted by time or the insu rance companies, tbe dead man, tbe man wbo has entered upon the new and spiritual life, whom we absurdly pity, is free, and his troubles are over. Suicides, it is true, are said to increase with civilisation. But few philosophical auioifto. nnrn. The momrilv .rn injilivd by dread of life overcoming dread of That S What YOU need; SOMIC' death.
