Dr. Ross Taylor proclaims that the great Dugfermline Andrew--with his millions, has put a spoke in the wheel of the Sustentation fund. He crippled subscriptions. By his © or- gans he had led congregations " on to the ice" By his benefactions" he has induced congregations to forego their old percentor and set up a 'kist of whustles," which means a large expenditure for choirs and organists, paralyzing the general ins terests of the church by restrictive growing in other directions enn i. 3H Baneful Literature. "The character of English fiction seriously deteriorated, Books which have 'a distinctly immoral tendency, or the writers of which seem to gloat over incidents foul in their sugges: tions, are freely circulated, and read even by the daughters of Christian homes." That is the indictment of modern in his charge®at: the inauguration of the Synod of Bleemfontein. A month- ly review shows that out of eighty- seven recent novels seventeen spoke of marriage as a thing played out, eleven' glarify 'co-réspondents, twen- ty-two practically advocate the in- fidelity of husbands, seven ridicule the woman who is true to her vows, afd twenty-three speak of the be- trayal of young women unreservedly.

The strongest proof of the church's divine origin and power is that it attracts women. A Dog that Reasoned. An English mastiff had a cataract growing over one eye and was taken to an oculist, who removed it. Months later it was noticed that it was grow- ing again and ought to be attended to. A few days after, the dog came home with his head bandaged, and to the astonishment of the family, who inquired of the oculist, it was found that the dog went to his office and that the doctor, finding another operation necessary. performed it without the least resistance from the ecutive committee of the steel trust, built a $100,000 church at Wheaton, Il, in memory of his parents, devout Methodists, and has recently given a valuable business block for endowing the church. A learned Englishman who has been studying Babylonish - records, especially the inscription of Narboni- dus, finds they report the flood about 2345 B.C., which agrees closely" with the Biblical date, and also with Chin- ese and Hindg reckoning. The central 'éommittee, represent- ing the World's Sunday School Con- vention, in charge of the interests oi 250,000 Sunday Schools, with an en- rollment of 26,000,000 members, has voted to hold the world's fifth con- vention in Rome, May 20th, coming. Dr. August Schmidt, physician, St. Louis, has given money for the erec- tion of a church in that city, in which all denominations will be'free to 'wor- ship. There will be no sermon, no choir and no collection. An organ op- crated by electricity will furnish sa- cred music, The parishioners, Poles, of St Cassimer's church, St. Louis, object- ed to the priest sent to take charge of the Church by Archbishop Glen- non, therefore they locked the edi- fice against him. A protest meeting ended in a riot, a police charge and seven arrests. Mrs. Burnett's story, "The Dawn of a To-morrow," concluded in Scrib- ner's, should interest every one who believes in Faith as an essential in- fluence in everyday life. It pictures a 'slum of London revolutionized through the intensity of faith in one poor woraan, In Ponce, Porto Rico, a prophet has appeared, representing himself let to working girls at trifling rents. ---- Perhaps You Don't Approve? The church and stage have been drawn closer by the efforts of Rev. J. Greathead, rector of Corringham, Essex, England, and his wife. The latter, a daughter of late Dr. Gaunt- lett, of musical fame, has written a "romantic play, founded on fact," "The Master Carver," in which her husband plays the part of the hero. The play was produced at Southend, in the parish room of All Saints', of which Dr. Lang, an enthusiastic de- votee of things theutridal, is the vicar. There was a crowded audience which showed appreciation. The other: characters were taken by vil- lagers of Corringham. Mr. Great- head has had an amateur dramatic company in 'connection | with the church for "twelve years, and never found any prejudice against his well- selected plays among church people. In Saxon Times. In the old times the Saxons used to dance around an apple tree on New Year's eve, singing a song. This |. was supposed to insure a good crop. Bells were rung to notify the Tn of the going out of the old and the coming in of the new year. Another ancient custom in England was the opening of "the house doors that faced the west to let out the old year, while the doors .on the oppo- site side were opened to usher in the new year. In the sixteenth cen- tury pins, newly invented, were pop- ular as New Year's gifts. In London you can have your boots made while you wait.

The Tribune calls attention to the extent to which the American Sun- day has been succeeded in Chicago by the Continental Sunday. It names twenty-five theaters open be- sides various sports and amusements in the parks and elsewhere; labor meetings are usually held on Sunday; the saloons, 7,000 or more, are wide open.
