the world, and a history loo, that datet
back over five thousand years, and a re
ligious teaching, that began over two
thousand years before the Christian
era
Tit said that Kngland first commenced
her wonderful missionary work, near
fifty years ago, combined wltb tbal ol
others, and has only made christians, of
a few thousand Chinese heathens. Hence
how long time will it require to Chris
tianize four or fi e hundred millions of
that people? The idea of tuch an ac
complishment is simply absurd.
One notable point presents Itself in
this connection, 'lis the cootllcling
views of the various religious denomina
tions, who send missionaries to many
parts of the heathen world Each teach
lug their peculiar doctrine, that surely
must be perplexing to all. Yes, even to
civilized people they are perplexing, and
with many doubtless they engender
scepticism. There are countless relig
ious denominations. The "Roman Cath
ollcs," the "Unlversalists." the "Unita
rians," the "Laying on of hands," the
"PredestinationisU," the "Immerslon
isls," etc., to say nothing of the millions
of Jews scattered all over the world,
(who never proselyte). May I ask why
preach to the Chinese, or to any people,
thai the moment the breath of libels
breathed into the nostrils of a new born
infant, It is predestined for Heaven, or
to the tenable realms of the damned ?
Upoj this point, wa read that the
S.iviour said "Suffer little children to
come unto me. and forbid them not, for
of such is the, Kingdom of Heaven." He
did not say some little children come
unto me. leaviug the inference that oth
ers were doomed by a Divine decree, to
regions of "Fire and Urimstone."' And
just here let me ask, who can tell how
deep thewster was in which ''the jailor
and his household were baptized at mid
night?"
There arc many points that learned
D. O.'s do clash upon, touching the final
destiny of mankind, yes, there aru mauy
mysteries that Die human mind, has not,
nor cannot solve
In the wonderful age of "isms and
ologys," there arc some who pretend to
bo aided by a Divine power, "Christian
healing," and many other fallacies. As to
foreign missions, 'tis notlcalilo that as
y et Christianizing work has not reached
the poor Hindoos or KsiUloio, they have
nol had missionaries. The climate per
haps is too bol,in ono country, and too
cold in the other, hence these poor
heathens escape bewilderment hy the
many different doctrines, of so-called
Christianity,
.lust here memory calls up a discussion
made in my bearing, lunching the many
religious characteristics of the great city
of Bo3ton. One of the party claimed as
a fact and offered ft wager, that no man
can number, or call the names of the dif
ferent religious organizations in that
city, based upon Bible teaching, and the
variouB interpretations of It. An Irish
man who heard the discussion said "Oh
begabers this is a wondeiful country,
peopled by a wonderful peoples."
Is it not strange indeed, that the most
learned men, do not work in accord, as
to matters of highest import to mankind
In religious teaching?
Touching England, anil her move

Mr. DeWitt, resigned-aome months ago,

have reached back to the year 1553. "The

I sliun't begin now. If you'd ml her
I'd die In the daytime. I'll try nnd hold
ou. though I h pose one ought to die
when the hour conies. Mobbe you've
blu thlukln that when I died you'd
bev to pay out a great lot of money
over tbe funeral, but I want you to
know different. I've never bin an ex
tra.vagant woman, nnd I kin git along
with a cheap funeral. I was reckuuln
It up t'other day. and I was surprised
and pleased with the Aggers. Do you
know, Samuel Gallup, that the hull
thing, from fust to last, won't cost a
cent over $30?"
One of Mr. Gallup'H eyebrows was
slightly raised In a questioning man
ner, but he made no verbal reply.
"Only $30, Samuel, nud that Includes
one of the best lots Iu the graveyard.
If you wauled to bury mo out Iu the
back yard, the cost would be reduced
to $25, and I don't think any husband
on earth klu complain of that. There
are wive who'd kick agMn lieln burled
Iu the back yard, but 1 shan't say a
word. And I've arranged other things
fur you, Samuel. While you've bin
busy with politics and lawsuits I've
bin arrangln fur death. In about an
hour from now, when I breathe my
last, you'll go over and rap threo times
ou Mr. Wntklus' door. Three raps
mean that I bev soared away, and
she'll be over In ten mlults to take
etiarge. Then you kin go right to bed
nnd go to sleep, same ns usual. The
funeral will take place the day after.
Mrs. Green will lend you 14 chairs, and
Mrs. Taylor will pick out the hymns
to bo sung. Mm. Jordan will milk
our cow and strain the milk, and Mrs.
Johnson will come over and git your
meals. Are you Ustenlu to me, Snm

with bated breath..
"All you'll bev to do," she continued
fter a sob or two, "Is to move about
kinder sorrerfulllke and shed a few
tear. I've bad 32 fits of sickness
since we was married, and sometimes
you've had to hire the waahtn done
fur me; but, after all, you'll be kinder
sorry when I'm gone. You'll remember
bow I made one teakettle last 14 year
and how I alius made tho tea and sugar
last louger tban any other woman In
town. I shan't ask you to break down
and weep, Samuel, but It 1 wns you
I'd bed tem. I not only deserve 'em,
but all th folks will tw watchln you
to aee If you ore ffpctel. You've got

you tblnk Pm right, Samuel?"
Bbe wiped ber tear and held bark

none cam. Mr. Usllup waa reading

any praise fur It, but when your second

Mr. Gallup yawucd and stretched aud
Hi i list out his legs, but be had nothing
to say.
"Mrs. Itoedeckcr says you'll probably
marry it young chit of 17. aud Mrs.
.Inekson says you'll probably look fur

bin 1 ain't goin to tind no fault in
either case, on the contrary, I kinder
pity you. Second wives alius smash

say anything they'll sass back and pull

Samuel, but there'll be times when
you'll sit down on the wash bench out

She stretched out on the lounge and
folded her hands and closed her eyes,
and for ten minutes then; was silence.
