People Who Lie About and Slander Their Neizhbors Obstruct ttfe Wire Between Themselvesand theThrone of Grace Piou Cheat and Play Cards and Swear and Urink Whiskey the Millstone About the Neck of Christianity. (Danville Daily Bee.) 'If you have lied, ,,r slandered any one you must undo the wron as far as possible." That is what h.yaii.-list .Schoollield said in his Winston sermon the other day when he was tellirif huw to irt-t. mcco,,.. to (ioil. " When ho asked the question how uanv could stand up and sav that here was nothing "on the wire" be weMi them and Right about titty in he audienee arose.

There are many good men within he church thousands upon thous ands but the LTeat tiouble in thes.- , " . - - lavs many men loin the. ehnreh f.,r ITect. The politician joins the hureh.the merchant joius the church -nut all of them for effect, but many of them go into it cold bloodedly and lenoeraiei v, and what hurts the church is that this fact is known. It is no uncommon thing to hear a church member swear; it is nothing uncommon to smell whiskey upon their breath but those same pious I retenders will get up with unblush- j ug effrontery and claim that in their ! souls they are as pure as light and as staimess as a star. The minister rebukes them and ad monishes them but his denunciation s mere generalities it consists of a broad shot into camp, and those hit know better than to siiuirui, and so thev let it go at that. Why, when the pteacher knows that some of his fold is straying from the pastures, he does not get up in the pulpit and say "John femith stand up. You are drinking liquor; you are swearing and you are lying and are cheating. ' lint the preacher dare not do that. Sam Jones will come along and abuse people at long range; tell what an onerv set some churches have in them, but even your Uncle Samuel never ."names his man. Why? He- cause the fellows who take license to do these things and still remain in the church are the big I'lins: the fel lows who pay the most pew rent; the ones who have the bank accounts and it would not do to offend them. Unlucklv preacher he, who would dare be guilty of such gross conduct. The preposterous idea of calling down the distinguished fellow-citizeu who has plenty of the long greeen. It would never do, for the preacher on ins limited salary would be in vited to receive a call to some other seaport. And when it comes to lying ami mi O slandering people, the woods are full of the slanderers and backbiters and many of them belong to churches and try to make out that they are little saints all by themselves. s we have said before we hope the Evangelist will do much good in his war on sin, but when he lays down the platform that men must not lie or slander or play cards or drink whiskey or dance well, he is going to have a slim audience if only those free of such vices are admitted. There will be plently of smooth fel lows come in chewing a clove and that they love their neighbors much as themselves; there will be all sorts of false pretense but the fellow with a bank account and the pull will do as he pleases, despite all warnings and all prophecies because the ministers have not the moral courage to church the black sheep. And as we have before insisted the minister is not to blame. Let him set out to sprinkling carbolic acid here and there and he would be a preacher out of a job. The whole trouble is that thechurcli the same as secret many benevolent societies, is used for an end. It is not what the creed promises nor is it for any good that may be rendered society-, that many people profess it is simply a cold proposition, How much will it bentit me? What is the programme? And men join church for what there is in it, and thus church members who aie honest and sincere and really good. must take the blame for har boring known scamps and tricksters. If there could be some way to weed out hypocracy; to kick out the dis sembfers; to black-ball the unworthy then the church would be a greater power for good than it is to-day and evangelists and preachers would not be troubled by as kiug men the ques tion if they had lied or slandered their neighbors. It is not to be sup posed that a man who really and trulv had the goodness of God in his heart would be suspected of slander in" his neighbors or lying to the harm of them. But it seemed at Winston that many church members could not sav that the wires were free so they went up and were prayed for. The orthodox preacher does not offer absolution for pay and he should be bold enough to have it un derstood that men could not belong to his congregation who felt that all thev had to do was to lie and slander their neighbors throughout the week and ak for forgiveuness and prayer on Sundav. Aud you will find as you go along the brier-grown path of life that many a good man and woman has been pulled down to degradation by the liar and hypocrite and slanderer who paid the biggest pew rent. This is a hard thing to believe but if you will sift the history you will find that it is a fact. Any young man can pay court to a firl. but its quite another matter to pay the butcher's bills afterward. a.

THREE LESSONS. There are three lessons I would write, Three words, as with a golden pen, In tracings of eternal light Upon the hearts of men. Have hope ! Though clouds environ round And Gladness hides her face in scorn, Tut thou the shadow from thy brow No night but has its morn. Have faith! Where'er thy bark is driven The calm's disport, the tempest's mirth Know this God rules the hosts of heaven, The inhabitants of earth. llave love! Not love alone for one, But man as man thy brother call And scatter, like the circling sun, Thy charities on all. Thus grave thess words upon thy soul llope, faith and loye and thou shalt Strength when life's surges maddest roll, Light when thou else wert blind. Schiller.

Simmons, chairman of the Democratic State committee, candidly admits that he would be pleased to ro to the United States Senate and I "But thero is now pending before j the people a question which over i shadows the question of who shall j till this office, or any offices, upon I which depends in a very large degree ; the future peace and prosperity of j the State: and until that question is j settled, there should be no dividing ! or distraetinsr scrambling over this office. To the success of this jrreat ! and beneficent measure I shall devote all of such time as I can spare from , . . . what is to me the necessary work of I making a living, and leave the people j to make their own selection of a Sen : ator and in such manner as they may j think wise and proper." 1 Good for Mr. Simmons. He de i serves well of his party and the peo ! pie won't forget him when the time comes. Few people can live without work ing. If they don't work themselves they usually work somebody else.

Commendable in tone, spirit and purpose is an editorial iu this week's issue of the Christian Advocate upon the subject of "An Educational Re vival." It sounds the keynote to the greatest progress and the smallest friction in the great cause of educa tion, by commending the policy of Church and State joining hands in removing illiteracy and placing our people upon a higher piano of educa ted Christian citizenship. The Advocate refers to the success ful efforts have been put forth along this line and to the reports that nearly all the schools of all grades are full this year, while the State University, the Agricultural and Me chanical College and most of the denominational colleges report in creased attendance. The Advocate says: "Kvery loyal North Carolinian will rejoice in this fact. With more gen eral intelligence, with our people better educated, with Protestant churches dotting the State every where, we may expect such growth, in the next few years as we have never witnessed before. "The school house cannot take the place of the church, the teacher must not supplant the preacher, and edu cation can never do away with the need of religion, but education and religion ought to blend in teacher and preacher and the former ought to contribute largely to the resources of the latter. "But let us not slacken our efforts. Let our educational forces of the church and State and our ministers of the gospel join hand in hand and go forward in the great work of giv ing to our people an educated Chris tian civilization. If we will make the most of our opportunities, if we will rise above little thing and selfish considerations and witb the true Christ Spirit press forward in our great work, the future is bright with hope for the church and the State." Winston Sentinel. 'Such an insult!'1 she exclaimed. ' "What?" he asked. T Why, you know what long hair Brown, who married Mis3 Smith to- day, always has had?" "Of course.

CHEMICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF FOOD ADULTERATION. At Least Ninety Per Cent, of the Pre pared Foods and Liquids Used as Beverages Sold in this Country Jloreor Less Adulterated Many of These Adulterants Not Only In jurious but Absolutely Poisonous Verily we Know not What we Eat. ( Wilmington Star.) Investigations pursued by chemists in the service of the United States Government have revealed the fact that at least ninety per cent, of the prepared foods and liquids, used as beverages sold in this country are more or less adulterated, some with harmless adulterants, others with in jurious a.ud sometimes absolutely poisonous ones. As a rule the cheaper articles are nearly all adulterated. Flour is an article that offers line op portunities to the dishonest seller, and investigations show that an im mense amount of that is adulterated. Special investigations have been made in Chicago with the Hours that to t "He says a while, clay found near Greensboro, N. C, has bct-n exten sively used, the manufacturing com pany which introduced it advertising that f 400 to $6 0 could be saved on a ', car-load of llour in which this eco nomical ingredient had been judi ciously introduced. For a while a white rock was ground and put in the Hour with much success, but as on long shipments the adulterant would j sift to the bottom they had tj be abaiidoned. A glucose by product' containing 89 per cent, of pure starch j J .became so popular with millers that the price has advanced from f l.l'J a 1 j bag to $1.50. It contained a decided j percentage of sulphuric acid and was ! so devoid of nutriment that it would I Lrequire a consumption of 150 pounds ; a day to keep a man able to work. 1 ' Samples of the Hour containing this j ; ingredient in the proportion of 40 per cent, were discovered on the general t market. The adulterant most iu favor is corn llour, which is dillicult of de tection, but so very profitable that a 5 per cent, mixture in a barrel of $3.50 wheat llour with a corn llour at $2.00 will yield the miller a profit of seven and a half cents. The Gov ernment experts at Washington can not detect this precentagc of adulter ation, and it is even said that 15 per cent, of corn llour cannot be detected by ordinary chemists." This chemist says they have the art down so line that housekeepers and grocers cannot detect the frauds, which are sometimes very difficult for even expert chemists to do. When the circulars were lirst made public in this State, setting forth the advantages of this Guilford clay and what a bonanza it woul prove to the flour mixer, the hustler who was ruu uing the scheme was reminded that he was violating the law and laying himself liable to prosecution and to imprisonment, when he said that he had sent out but few of the circulars and that he would quit the business; but it is said that the shop is still running in Greeusboro, where samples of the stuff may be seen. Whether much of it is being shipped or not we do not know, hut we do know some thing about that clay, and have 110 hesitation in saving that if a man ate bread doctored with this stuff for about six months and fell overboard, a raft of life preservers couldn't ke p him afloat, aud yet this stuff is harm Jess compared with some of the vile decoctions used in food and drink adulteration. There are laws, both State and national, to protect the people from this imposition, but it goes on ami for all the good the laws do they might as well have never been passed. Il is not the fault of the law but the fault of those whose duty it is to see the law enforced but don't do it. PROSPERITY IN NORTH CAROLINA. There has been more building done in North Carolina during the past 6ix months than during any previous six months of her history. In every large town or city iu the State, during the past six months contractors have hardly been able to to get material or mechanics to do their work, so great has been the de mand for both labor and material. We doubt if there ever was a period in our Stale's history when a mechanic could more easily get work or buy more with his wages. And not only do skilled mechanics lind plenty of profitable work, but all kinds of laborers and workmen can get plenty of work at fair wages. This is easily proved by a visit to almost any town in the State. But while the above is true a9 to the towns, the rural sections have not heretofore been so blessed, but at last the country the farmers are feeling its effects and becoming more hopeful and encouraged. The great increase in the price of cotton ' is a great God-send to our country and to a class of people who need afl they can get. This increase is now fifty per cent, over price of cotton at this time last year, and it may be still greater. Our farmers have waited long and suffered patiently. For years they have been raising cot ton and selling it at a price that hardly paid expenses. Now, at last they can sell at a prolit and feel that their "labor has not been in vain."
