Earlier text: SUNDAY-KEEPING—IS IT OF ROME?A MAN was passing up State street one cool day, when he saw a little bare-footed girl trotting along the pavement. “Why are you bare-footed, little girl,” said he, “haven’t you any shoes?” “No,” she answered, “my papa dets drunk.” No further explanations were necessary. Given: a drunken father as a premise, and we have a bare-footed child as a conclusion. It is so everywhere. At all times and in all places, with the drunken father we find the neglected child. A mother’s love may shield, and a mother’s care protect for a while her helpless offspring from the calamities caused by intemperance; but as the current sets faster, and the father sinks deeper, the days of poverty and misery come slowly on, and woe to that child whose “papa dets drunk.” There is perhaps no cause so fruitful of children’s misery as this accursed crime which fills the land with mourning, lamentations, and woe. There is no day or hour or moment in the wide sweep of centuries that does not witness the sufferings of helpless childhood, caused by the use of strong drink. Hunger, cold, rags, nakedness, want, and squalor, haunt the drunkard’s home, and afflict the drunkard’s family. Out of the hovels of drunkards, children start on the race of life, burdened with poverty, burdened with disease, burdened with evil habits, burdened with disgrace, burdened with sins, and nothing but a miracle of mercy can save them from plunging downward into darkness and perdition. But while this tide of misery rolls on, the rum-seller grows rich by his traffic, the politician trims his course to win the dramaseller’s influence and the rumdrinkers’ votes; and the priest and the Levite too often pass by on the other side, leaving helpless infancy stripped and wounded in its anguish and despair. But though man may be indifferent there is One on high, whose tender mercies are over all his works. He watches the sparrow’s fall, he numbers the very hairs of our heads, and the convulsive sob or wailing cry of the feeblest child, has power to pierce the very heavens. And though the sword of wrath seems to slumber within its scabbard, yet the woe and curse of God pursues the men who engage in this terrible work, and will pursue them to the end. Meanwhile the pitying Christ looks down upon a lost world; and he who took little children in his arms and put his hands on them and blessed them, is not forgetful of the needs of these suffering, sorrowing ones. O that his sympathy and his love may so inspire our hearts, that we shall do what we can to stay this tide of human misery, and rescue the suffering and stricken little ones from the calamities which are brought upon them through strong drink.—Safeguard. WINE AND BEER LEAD TO STRONGER LIQUORS.
AND now comes a cry of distress from Germany—the land of wine and lager—a cry of alarm at the increase of drunkenness. The advocates of light wines and beer as substitutes for rum and whisky, have for years pointed to Germany as illustration. The advocates of the free sale of beer and ale have pointed to the same example. But now the Nation publishes a Berlin letter upon the alarming increase of intemperance, and the use of alcoholic drinks in place of or in addition to the use of beer. Belgium has, since 1840, more than doubled the use of alcohol, and the industrial counties have a dram-shop for every seven persons. In Germany the dram-shops increased in two years 12,261—about 10 per cent. The emperor of Germany in his late address to his Parliament, called attention to the serious increase of crimes and misdemeanors, committed by men in a state of drunkenness, and Parliament has sought to limit the number of licensed dram-shops. One great difficulty in the way is the fact that the Prussian aristocracy have a monopoly of distilling whisky. All the same it is apparent that wine and beer are not preventives of drunkenness. Rather they awaken and stimulate the appetite for stronger drinks. We commend these facts—coming as they do from a source not under suspicion of special favor for total abstinence—to those good men who defend moderate drinking, and especially the drinking of wines and beer. It may be suggestive, also, to the cider drinkers.—Northwestern Christian Advocate. A MINISTER'S DEGRADATION.
IN an address Dr. Fulton recently delivered, he said: It is not two years ago since he was invited to preach in a certain church in Jersey City. While in the company of the pastor he noticed that the latters breath smelled of wine. He confessed that he had in obedience to St. Paul's injunction to Timothy taken "a little wine for his stomach's sake." He was a most brillant scholar and in every sense an ornament to the church. He had gone on from small beginnings till he had broken down the barriers of prudence and discretion one by one, and the end was not far off. He was soon reduced to a mental and physical wreck and went to San Francisco. Three weeks ago this unfortunate man called on Dr. Fulton begging for $5 to get his overcoat out of pawn. For months previously he had been sleeping in the very lowest and cheapest lodging houses in New York. Hundreds of other cases could be cited, Dr. Fulton said, were it not a work of superrogation. He did not think that any one was so inexperienced with the habits of man not to perceive the danger that lurked in the wine cup. The only safeguard to be found against its polluting power was to let it severely and entirely alone, and not by homeopathic and unfrequent doses at the beginning to familiarize one's system and constitution with its stimulating sway, and in that manner lay the foundation for a life of misery, degradation, and ruin. There should be no compromise tolerated with such a poisonous habit. A man should not tempt fate, and those who would lead abstemious lives should put the wine cup out of sight and out of mind completely and forever. Tobacco and Ministerial Character
The St. Lawrence Presbytery, at its recent meeting, expressed its entire disapprobation of the use of tobacco, and directed its Committee on Education not to recommend for aid, any candidate for the ministry, unless satisfied that he is, and will be thereafter, free from the habit. The popular opinion that smoking and chewing are incompatible with the highest exhibitions of ministerial character, is growing so rapidly, that, at no distant day, the pipe and tobacco-box will hold the same relation to pastoral proprieties as the wine-glass has come to occupy. WCTU Hygiene and Temperance Education
At the recent annual meeting of the National W. C. T. U., Miss Willard, President, in mapping out the future work of the society, suggested that a department of hygiene be established, with a lady physician as superintendent, and that the "laws of life and health," with special reference to the twin poisons—alcohol and tobacco—be taught; also the harmful effects of drugs in general, and alcoholic medication in particular. A Warning Against Appetite
Put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite. SOLOMON. The following true incident was brought to my remembrance while listening to the rebellious words of a man who could not see his father's wisdom in desiring him to learn a trade. "It will make a common man of me, father," he said, querulously. "I shall be as dirty as a blacksmith, and have hands like a coal heaver." "And if you think, Fred, that wearing fine clothes and having white hands makes you a gentleman, let me tell you, sir, that you are a very common man, to begin with. A good trade might help you to truer notions of gentlemanhood." Then I looked at the handsome young fellow—for he was handsome—and I thought just now of Steve Gaskill. Steve had made his mark now, but many years ago I heard just such a talk between him and old Josiah Gaskill, relative to the young man learning his father's trade of a wool-stapler. "It's a dirty business, father," said the splendid Steve, in full evening dress, "and I hate the smell of oil and the sight of those men in blue linen blouses. I hope that I shall do something better for myself than that." "Very well; what is it thou'd fain to be?"
"A lawyer, father." "They're naught but a lazy, quarrelsome set; but thou shalt not say that I stood in the gate. Be a lawyer; I will speak to Denham to-morrow about thee." So young Steve was articled in Denham & Downs', to study law, especially conveyancing. He had three sisters, and over them and his mother he exercised supreme influence. Whatever Steve did was right, whatever he said was beyond dispute. Even old Josiah, with all his sound sense, was in spite of himself swayed by the undisputed acknowledgement of Steve's superiority. He would not have advised his son to be a lawyer, but seeing that Steve was not afraid to be one, he was rather proud of the lad's pluck and ambition. It cost them a good deal. Steve's tastes were expensive, and he fell naturally among a class of men who led him into many extravagances. There were occasionally awkward scenes, but Steve, supported by his mother and sisters, always cleared every scrape, and finally satisfied the family pride by being regularly admitted upon the roll of her Majesty's attorneys. In the meantime, his father had been gradually failing in health; soon after this he died. Most of his savings had been secured for the helpless women of the Gaskill family. Steve now found himself with a profession and a thousand pounds to give him a fair start in it. People said that old Gaskill had acted very wisely, and Steve had sense enough to acquiesce in public opinion. He knew, too, that as long as his mother or sisters had a shilling they would share it with him. So he hopefully opened an office in his native town of Leeds, and waited for clients. But Yorkshire men are proverbially cautious; a young lawyer was not their ideal. Steve could not look crafty and wise under any circumstances, and the first year he did not make enough to pay his rent. Nevertheless he did not in any way curtail his expenses, and when the summer holidays arrived, he went, as usual, to a fashionable watering place. It happened that year he saw the debut of Miss Elizabeth Braithwaite, a great heiress, and a very handsome girl. Steve was attracted by her beauty, and her great wealth was not a drawback in his eyes. In a short time he perceived that Miss Braithwaite favored him above all other pretenders to her hand, and he began to consider the advantages of a rich wife. His profession had hitherto been a failure; his one thousand pounds was nearly spent; his three sisters were all on the point of marriage, a condition which might seriously modify their sisterly instincts, and his mother's income wouldn't support him a month—wouldn't it be the best plan to accept the good fortune evidently within his reach? Elizabeth was handsome and inclined to favor him, and though she had the reputation of being authoritative in temper and economical in money matters, he did not doubt that she would finally acknowledge his power as completely as his mother and sisters. So he set himself to win Miss Braithwaite, and before Christmas they were married. True, he had been compelled to give up a great deal more than he liked, but he promised himself post-marital compensations. Elizabeth insisted on keeping her own house, and as Steve had no house to offer her, he must needs go to Braithwaite Hall as the husband of its proprietress. She insisted on his removing his office to Braithwaite, a small village, offering none of the advantages for killing time which a large village like Leeds did; and she had all her money scrupulously settled on herself, for her own use, and under her own control. Steve felt very much as though his wife had bought him, but for a little time the éclat of marrying a great heiress, and the bridal festivities, and foreign travel compensated for the loss of his freedom. But when they returned to Braithwaite life showed a far more prosaic side. Mrs. Gaskill's economical disposition became particularly offensive to Steve. She inquired closely into his business, and did not scruple to make unpleasant witty remarks about his income. She rapidly developed, too, an authoritative disposition, against which Steve daily more and more rebelled. The young couple were soon very unhappy. The truth was that a great transition was taking place in Steve's mind, and times of transition are always times of unrest and misery. The better part of his nature was beginning to claim a hearing. He had now seen all that good society could show him; he had tasted all the pleasures that money could buy, and he was unhappy. She had no ennui or dissatisfaction herself. There were her large house to oversee, her gardens and conservatories, her servants and charity schools, her toilet, and a whole colony of pet animals. Her days were too short for all the small interests that filled her time; and these interests she would willingly have shared with Steve, but to him they soon became intolerable bores. Under such circumstances he might have found his work in the ordering and investigation of his wife's large estate, but Elizabeth was far too cautious to trust her business to untried hands. Her father's agent was her agent; her banker managed all her investments; her parks and farms and gardens were under the care of old and experienced servants, who looked upon Steve merely as "Missis' husband." In the second year of their marriage he began to have some thoughts which would have astonished his wife, had she thought it worth while to inquire what occupied his mind in the long hours when he paced the shrubbery, or sat silently looking out of the window. But Steve was now ready for any employment that would take him out of the purposely dependent life which he had so foolishly chosen for himself. One day, greatly to his surprise, Elizabeth said to him:—
"Steve, I have a letter from a cousin of mother's who lives in Glasgow. She is going to Australia, and wants me to buy her house. She says it is a great bargain, and I wrote a letter to Barret to go and see about it. I have a letter this morning saying he is too ill to leave his bed. I wonder if you could go and attend to it?" Anything for a change. Steve showed a very business-like interest, and said:—
"Yes, I would be very glad to go."
"Very well, I should think you knew enough of titles and deeds and conveyances and all that sort of thing. I will trust the affair to you, Steve." So the next morning Steve found himself on the Caledonia line, with £100 in his pocket and valuable business on hand. The first twenty miles out of Leeds he enjoyed with all the abandon of a bird set free. Then he began to think again. At Crewe he missed a train, and he wandered about the station, and fell to talking to the engineer of the next one, who was cleaning and examining the engine with all the love and pride a mother gives her favorite child. The two men fraternized at once, and Steve made a trip over the line in the engineer's small cuddy. He was a fine young fellow, "one of seven, all machinists and engineers"; he was only serving his time—learning every branch of the business practically. He had brothers who made engines, and he hoped to do so, too, some time. In spite of his soiled face and greasy clothes, Steve recognized that refinement that comes with education, and when his new friend called upon him at the Queens's Hotel he would not have been ashamed of him even in his most fastidious days. "Mr. Dalrymple, I am glad to see you," said Steve, holding out both hands to him.
"I thought you would be, sir; it is not often I make mistakes in my likings. I will go with you now to see my father's works if it suits you." Never had such a place entered Stephen Gaskill's conception. The immense furnaces, the hundreds of giants working around them, the clang of machinery, the mighty struggle of mind with matter was to him a revelation. He envied those cyclops in their leathern masks and aprons; he longed to lift their heavy hammers. He looked upon the craftsmen, with their bare, brawny arms and blackened hands, and felt his heart glow with admiration when he saw the mighty works those hands had fashioned. The tears were in his eyes when Dalrymple and he parted at the gate of the great walled-in yard. "Thank you," he said, "you have done me the greatest possible service. I shall remember it." That night Steve formed a strange but noble resolution. First of all he devoted himself to his wife's business, and accomplished it in a manner which elicited Mr. Barett's warm praise, and made Elizabeth wonder whether she might not spare her agent's fees for the future. Then he had a long confidential talk with the owner of the Dalrymple iron and machine works, the result of which was the following letter to Mrs. Gaskill:— MY DEAR WIFE: I shall not be at home again for at least two years, for I have begun an apprenticeship to Dalrymple as an iron-master. I propose to learn the process practically. I have lived too long on your bounty, for I have lost your esteem as well as my own, and I do not say but that I have deserved the loss. Please God I will redeem my wasted past, and with his help make a man of myself. When I am worthy to be your husband you will respect me, and until then think as kindly as possible of
STEPHEN GASKILL. The letter struck the first noble chord in Elizabeth's heart. From that hour not even her favorite maid dared to make little compassionate sneers at "poor master." Steve, in leather apron and coarse working clothes, began laborious, happy days, which brought him nights of sweetest sleep, and Elizabeth started a series of letters to her husband, which were soon imbued with the tenderest interest and respect. In a few weeks she visited him, of her own free will, and going to the works she saw her half-banished lord wielding a ponderous hammer upon a bar of red-hot iron. Swarthy, bare armed, clothed in leather, he had never looked so handsome to Elizabeth, and her eyes revealed this fact to Steve, for in them was the tender light of love founded upon genuine respect. Steve deserved it. He wrought faithfully out his two years' service, cheered by his wife's letters and visits, and when he came out of the Dalrymple works there was no more finished iron-master than he. He held up his head frankly now, and looked fortune boldly in the face. He could earn his living anywhere, and, better than all, he had conquered his wife—won her esteem, and compelled her to acknowledge a physical strength and moral purpose greater than her own. Between Leeds and Braithwaite Hall there have been for many years gigantic iron works. The mills and railways on the West Riding know them well. Their work is famed for its excellence, for the master is a practical machinist and overlooks every detail. Their profits are enormous, and Stephen Gaskill, their proprietor, is also the well-beloved and respected Master of Braithwaite Hall. The Home Circle.
By Carlotta Perry
The earth gives us treasure four-fold for all that we give to its bosom;
The care we bestow on the plant comes back in the bud and the blossom.
The sun draws the sea to the sky, O, stillest and strangest of powers,
And returns to the hills and the meadows the gladness of bountiful showers.
The mother regains her lost youth in the beauty and youth of her daughters,
We are fed after many long days by the bread that we cast on the waters.
Never a joy do we cause but we for that joy are the gladder,
Never a heart do we grieve but we for the grieving are sadder.
Never a slander so vile as the lips of the willing rehearser,
And curses, though long, loud and deep, come home to abide with the curser.
He who doth give of his best, of that best is the certainest user,
And he who withholds finds himself of his gaining the pitiful loser.
The flowers that are strewn for the dead bloom first in the heart of the living,
And this is the truest of truths, that the best of a gift is the giving.

The text is in Great Primer type, and is printed on heavy, calendared paper, making a large and elegant volume, royal octavo size, of 838 pages. While the Bible is a book for all, there are some parts of it which are as milk for babes and some as strong meat for men. The publishers of the "Child's Bible" have endeavored to put in consecutive form such portions of the Holy Scripture as seem best adapted to the wants and capacities of childhood, in the words of the Bible text. And where the sense requires it, words and clauses have been inserted in brackets, sometimes as summaries of what has been omitted, and sometimes as connecting links. Believing that the youth should know at what cost the English Bible was won and preserved for them, there has been prefixed to this edition an account of the Sacred Scriptures from the time of their origin to the present day, prominence being given to the struggle of the Reformers for its translation into the English language. The numerous engravings were executed by the best artists of this country and of England and France. They will assist in interesting children in the text, and will aid in the instruction of those too young to read.
