parochial paro-chial schools in the United States with 49290 pupils in attendance in 1S90 the number of schools had increased to 3203 with 1x54838 pupils One hundred years ago when thin Catholic hierarchy was established es-tablished in the United States the Catholic population of the country numbered 44500 Catholic UoiW Conscience Is the memory of the soul It is the shadow of our moral nature And duty performed or neglected must be the ultimate source of happiness or of woe To have an intelligent perception of truth and duty and a conscience that responds quickly to their appeal is to possess the highest elements of moral nobility A hundred years ago the number of professing pro-fessing Christians of alHtho three great sections of the Christian church were less thai 200000000 now they are over 430000 JuOO and of this great increase in a hundred years by far the larger share falls to the Protestant church While the Roman Catholic and Greek churches only doubled their numbers the Protestants multiplied nearly fourfold Being tired of life is always a selfish feeling for no man is tired of living on the ground that there is nothing to be done lay him for others Ho who lives wholly for himself may indeed feel that ha can no longer pleuso himself but he who lives for others is sure to see so much yet to bo done in the line of his lifework that heis not ready to atop living by his own choice sUNDAY GAMES Prebendary Eyton writing in the Eng land lltustratfd Magazine says The distinction dis-tinction between Sunday games and weekday week-day ones or Sunday tunes and weekday tunes is a relic of that hateful system which cut life in two and left the thought of Gods service out of work and play alike I should be glad to see a cricket match on eVer village green on Sunday afternoons and the games of every institute as freely Tiseftason weekdays There can he no better relaxations tdan our ordinary Eng lish games and it is a thousand pities to prescribe them as unfit for Sundays A curn POSt POVERTY A surs cure of poverty about which wo are hearing a good deal is primarily u cure of character la free countries certainly most of the poverty wo find is the neat result re-sult of a wculc intellectual or weak moral character or both Confessedly the poverty pov-erty of the colored population ot thin South will bo measurably cured by the education and training of the intellect and morality of the mass of them The moment people are relieved of their ignorance and bad morals which is the best prosperity they begin to prosper in a worldly way also No matter wnat social llnancialor governmental govern-mental changes we make for the removal of poverty and these are possibly cuangcs for good let us get them none of them will intro but a transient success if any until character is renovated Cure poverty pov-erty Cure character Pacific Sun Fran cfsco THE UGLY SPHHT His work is of greater variety and extent than many suppose who seek his direction and inspiration Ho not only descended on this disciples at Pentecost to kindle their speech but he equipped Berated ES a manufacturer man-ufacturer of tabernacle furniture and gave Otlmicl courago and wisdom to lead an army aud furnished to David plans for constructing die temple Not in a revival only may we expect the quickening of the Holy Spirit but in wise planning in financial finan-cial management in the work ot the sexton sex-ton and the choir and the prudential con nritteo in all that pertains to the affairs of tile church Prayer for the bestowment of the Holy Spirit on these persons and for his guidance in theso matters may often be answered by such gifts as lead to the spiritual renewal of the church and the conversion of sinners Conarcaationaltot IIOW TO HC SAVED The ConorcaaHnnaltst says There are those who say they think the world is to bo saved by some other means than Christianity Christian-ity hut such persons believe that the only choice is bctweer acceptingthe whole gospel gos-pel or rejecting it altogether This is the way the New Ideal an organ of what is called free religion puts it Who really doubts 10 day that Congregationalism and Episcopalianism are broader and more progressive pro-gressive than Unitarianism or Universal ion If religion alone could over really save the world would be saved by active wideawahe orthodoxy and not by a dead or only halfalive heterodoxy V WUAT SHOULD A SHJTISTEU aol Farmton says in the Advance I always al-ways feel a sense of gratitude when a family asks me to go with them upon the sad drrand of committing precious dust to dust I often question with myself as X staaa beside the open grave as to a matter of duty in that simple act of uncovering Shall I with the winter snow lying about me the mercury below freezing and the wind blowing hardremain with my hat oil for a half a dozen minutes Every occasion occa-sion on which I do it I think I am tempting Providence to dig also my grave and yet somehow I never feel like saying the blessed words of hope of the resurrection without showing whatever respect it is possible to show This may not be a wise dictate of the head but it is surely the impulse im-pulse of tho heart What should a minister minis-ter do under such circumstances XOVEL THEOniES The Clirttlan Intelligencer Refd says A great many novel theories and disputed questions about Daniel and his prophecies have been raised by Biblical critics and advanced ad-vanced thinkers of the rationalistic school in our times But this which follows and ° VV e56 V which beats the freethinkers out of sigh is from tIe article Daniel in the Sctmff Herzoj Cyclopedia by Prof Dclitzich who says Ho was fhrowu into a furnace for disobeying tho royal command to how dowrCto a golden imago Dan 4 Who is responsible for this amazing latterday newS Isit the author or the editor Even the reference is wrong for the story of Nebuchadnezzars fiery furnace is not in the fourth but is in the third chapter of the Book of Daniel |
