Th shark and pilot fish are wca pionnlly found in Uie Southern Califor nia sea wa.er:-. The A fish is knowD As Namratc diiclor. Without the partnership of the shark it would die. Attacked to the k I; i 1 1 nf the shark's head it repays its Idg ami sava,' ally for its habitation there by piloting the nhark to food. How the little fish does that is one of the uukiov.-n things of our branch of science. '1 he pilot tish is about seven inches long and has the calibre of m man's wrist. It is Kiuooth and dark-skinned. It has an oval mouth under the head, and the mouth enables It to gel a firm hold by sticking. 15 v this means the pilot fish attaches itself at will to a lihaik, gen erally between the big fish's eyes, and when once fastened there it sucks it? sustenance from the ahark, and gets free transportation. This tish acts as a valet for deep .sea shariis. It is the pomilus of the ancients, who described It as pointing out the way to embar rassed sailors. They regarded it as a acred fish. Soldiers returning to the United States who h:tve served beyond the seas are sport Lig their foreign service 'stripes proudly. This stripe, as new to our army as foreign service is to our history, is a narrow bar of red worr low down o'j eat h sh eve. - r-r . M, . J ' 'ilfcfl KVwmM V. t ( 'f f w Excellent Combination.

C. Iu this st-rmon Dr Ta):n;i'v uh n5e.- a topic xvhioh will ia- tr'.st donir.sti circles everywhere. text is xiii., a: '-Jet there ie no strife, I I ray thee, between me and thee and between my herdmen nud thy herdaaen. Lj not the whole laud before tbee?; Undo and nephew, Abraai and Lot, both pious, both millionaires, and with such lar flocks of bleating sheep and lowing cattle that their herdaien got into a "gut, perhaps about the best pasture or about the best water privilege" or because the cow of one got hooked by the horns of tho others. Not their poverty of opportunity, bui their wealth, was the cause of con troversy between these two men. To Abram, the glorious old Mesopotamia sheik, euch controversy seemed absurd. It was like two ships quarreling for sea room in the raiddlo of the Atlantic Ocean. There was ;i vast reach of country, corntields. vineyards, harvests and plenty of room la illimitable acreage. 'Now,'' says Abram, "let us agree to differ. Here are the moun tain districts, swept by the tonic sea breeze and with wide reaching pro-peet, and there is the plain of the Jordan, with tropical luxuriance. You may have either." Lot, who was not as rich as Abram, aud might have been expected to take the second choice, made the first selection and wi;h a modesty that must have made Abram smile said to him: "You may have the rocks and the fiae prosp-et; 1 will take the valley of the Jordan, with all its luxuriance of corn fields und the river to water the flocks and the genial climato aud the vroalta i:a- ' measurable." So the controversy was I forever settled and great-souled Abram ! carried out the ruggcstlon of the text: "Let there bo no strife, I pray the;', bo tweea me nud thee, aud between my herd men and tl.y hcrdmen. Ia not the whole land before thee?" Well, in this the last decide ot the nine teenth century and in this beautiful land, which was ealled America, after Amerieus Vespueius, but should have been called Columbia, after its discoverer, Columbus, we have a wealth of religious privilege and opportunity that h positively bewildering. Churches of all sorts of creeps and of all kinds of government and all forms of worship aud all styles oT architecture what opulence of ecclesiastical oppor tunity! Now, while in desolato regions there may be only cue church, in the opulent districts of this country there is such a p:ofusio i that there ought to be no difficulty in making a selection. No light about vestments, or between liturgical or uonliturgical adherents, or as to baptis nal rnoaes, or a uanuiul or water as eompared with a riverful. If Abram prefers to dwell cn the heights, where he can get only a sprinkling from the clouds, let him consent that Lot have all the Jordan iu which to Immerse himself. "Let there bo no strife, I pray thee, between me aud thee and be tween my herdsmen and thy herdsmen. Is not tho whole land before thee?" Especially is it unfortuuate when fami lies allow angry discursiou at the break fast or dining or tea table as to which is the best church or denomination, one at one end of the table saying he could never endurotho rigid doctrines of Presbyfceri anism, one at tho other end respoudiug that she never could stand the forms of Episcopacy, and one at one 9ide of tho table saying ho did not understand how anybody could bear the noisein tho Metho dist church, and another declaring all the Baptists bigots. Thero are hundreds of families hopelessly split on eccleslasticism, and iu the middle of every discussiou on such subjects there is a kindlintr of iiidlir- I nation, aud it needs some old father Abram to come and put his foot on the loaded fuse before tho explosion takes ptae and gay: "Let there be no strlTe, I pray thee, be tween me aud thee aud between mr herd men and thy hcrdmen. Is not the whole land before thee?" I uudertakea subject never undertaken by auy other pulpit, for it is an exceed ingly delicate subject, and if not rightly handled might giveserious ofTense, but I approach it without ihn slightest trepida tion, for I am sure I have the divine direc tion in the matters I propose to present. It is a tremendous question, asked all over Christendom, often asked with tear and toba and heart b reiki and Invotviug tho peace of families, the eternal happiness nf many souls. In matters of Ajhncch attend ance should the wife go with the husband Cr the husband go with th. wife? First, remember that all the vangeilcat Churches have enough truth in them to save the soul and prepare us for happines on earth aud in heaven. I will go with you into any well selected theological library. I and I will show you sermons from minis ters in all denominations that st fortn tnan as a sinner and Christ as a deliverer from sin and sorrow. That is the whole Go.pel. Get that into your sou! and you arw !Utel for the here nud tho hereafter. Tacro are differences, we admit, and some deno n natiocs we lit Letter than ot'.ters. Cut euppose three or four of us make eotauxa agreement to meet each other a week Irom now la Chicago on Important business, and one goes by the New York Central Rail road, another by the Erie liailro.vd, another by the Pennsylvania Railroad, another by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. One goe3 this way because tne mountains are grander; another takes this because tho cars are is ore luxurious; another that br j c::use the speed is greater: another takes the other because he has iortg been a.vu j tomed to that route, and all the employe ! are f.tmiliar.

Or how k no west thou, O man. whether thou shalt save thy wife?' The iearost sacrifice on the part of the one is cheap if It rescue t'e other. Better -go to the smallest, weakest, most insignificant church on earth and be copartners iu eternal bliss than pass your earthly mem bership in most gorgeously attractive church while your companion stays out- side of evangelical privilege. Better have tiie drowning saved by a scow or a Bloop than let him or her go down while you sail by in the gilded cabins of a Ma jestic or Campania. Second remark: If both of the married eouules be Christians, but one in so natur aV.y constructed tnat it ts traps?lb9 t enjoy the services ot a particular denom ination, aud the other is not so sectarian or punctilious, let the one less particular go with the other who is very particular. As for myself, I feel as mueii at home in one denomination of evangelical Christians as another, and I think I must have been born very near the line. I like the solemn roll of the Episcopal liturgy, and I like t! spontaneity of the Met no ills ts aud I like the importance given to th ordinance of baptism by the Baptists and I like the free dom of the Congregational iatt and I Iik the government and tU sublime doctrine of the Presbyterians and I like many of the Others just as mu.-h a any I .have roo tioned and I coaM happily live aud preach and die and be buried from any of them.
