Many imDortant teachings and miracles are omitted in their order from these lessons. The discourses containing great characteristic doctrines and those miracles connected with great events have been selected for our etndy. This marvel of stilling the tempest did much to arous the popular interest and to enlarge the faith of the disciples. It was most opportune-in confirming some very hold teachings as to his divine authority. APPLICATION. 1. The cost of being a Christian. 2. Life has its storms of sickness, disaster, financial ruin, when all that is dear seems about to be lost. 3. Christ sometimes seems to be utterly oblivions to our perils, and our faith is severely tried. . , . 4. The siloing or silent Christ is by no means an indifferent or forgetful f rieud. 5. Fear, not, doubt not, in any storm. He is with Ton, and nothing cau overcome Hia will and purpose. POINTS FOE ARROWS. L The first duty of a roan is to follow Christ All other duties are subordinate to this. 2. Sudden impulses are apt to bo mistaken for steadfast resolutions. Js.us tests those who would become His disciples. a Tn Savior offers no life of ease to those who would become His followers. 4. The Savior himself became poor that we roieht not fear poverty, and that we through His poverty might become rich. 5. By what unworthy motives are men kept from folio wiosr the Savior. 6. "An unwilling mind never wants for an excuse." 7. It may b more a man's duty to save the living than to bury the dead. 8. He who puts his band to tbo plow and looks back is not fit for the kingdom of God. 9. Even those who keeo company with Christ must ex doc t to encounter storms. 10. Fear and little faith keep company. There is a ereat calm always in the heart of the one who trusts in Christ as he deserves. 11. In storms Jesus is the one to whom we should turn, even if we have but little faith. 13. Jesus responds even to a little faith, and rebnkes the winds and the sea. 13, ne seemed like a man who slept while the storm was rapine, but it was no mere mrm who said to the winds and the sea: "Peace, be till!' 14, "What manner of man is thisr "What '' does your heart sayl Is your heart willing to listen to the gracious words: "Peace, be Still?'

"Warner: The Lord's call to the presence chamber means only that further work here was not ours to do. To simply work is nothing; we must do it for Jesus' sake.

San Aneelo (Tex.) Enterprise. The Enterprise continues to advance. Its reporter was called "brother" and asked to "pass .around the , hat" at the Bible Society meeting. The Enterprise bows its acknowledgement. The Journal and Messenger puts it in this way: "It bas been said, in behalf of the racecourse, that it has improved the breed of horses. That may be true: but it is equally true that it has deteriorated th.e breed of men." The colored Baptists of Georgia will celebrate In June, 1888. the centenary of the founding of , their first church, January 20, 1787. in that . State. The celebration is postponed till June in ' order, we suppose, that it may be held in a tent. The Roman Catholic Church has in Great Britain 1,600 ehapels, 224 monasteries, 415 consents, 29 colleges and 2,59!) priests.

The Reformed Church in Hungary has 1,030 regular organized congregations, with 1,009 Sastors. Its schools contain 202,803 pupils, with 278 teachers. Its theological colleges are attended by 300 students. In addition, services on behalf of scattered Protestants are occasionally held in some 3,261 places. Phillips Brooks: It is always a choice of mas- . ters to which Christ is urging men. It is not by striking off all allegiance, but finding your Lord, and serving Him with complete snbmission, that you can escape from slavery. Then give yourself to Him completely. Let Him mark you as His by whatever marks He wilL Said Sam Small, at Worcester, Mass., the other day: "Since last summer I have been Tery ill. and very near unto death. During my ', illness I read the book of Job very freauently, and gained much comfort and good from it, leading to a deeper and more abundant blessing than I had ever known before. I recornmend it aa the very bulwark of God against infidelity, skepticism, and science, falsely so called." Waterbury American: Preaching is getting to be more and more on a business basis, and churches must compete in the world's market for brains if they want to get the best. Those which offer a bare subsistence, and that are often dependent on the liberality of donation parties can expect to get only men who are incapable of getting more in other occupations. And that accounts for mediocrity in the pulpit, a plaee where mediocrity is most conspicuous and where superiority is essential. Still thy love, O Christ arisen. Yearns to reach theso souls in prison! Throuoh all depths of sin and loss Drops the plummet of Thy cross! Never yet abyss was found Deeper than that cross could sound! Whittier. Tou hare lived and learnt this marvel, That the holiest joys that carce From its beantiful heaven to bless you, Nor Bended nor found a name. Lucy Larcom. WORTH'S FASHIONS. Designs for the Coming feeasoirf ndicate Many Chances in Styles. Lucy Hooper's Paris Letter. This year the styles of the house ate most enchantinglovelier, I think, than they have been for some years past, but perhaps this impression is simply owing to the fact of their novelty. A good many chancres are to be signalized during the coming season. Plaited waists will be much worn in soft, pliable materials. The basque will almost wholly disappear, corsages being cut pointed at the waist, or in some instances round with a girdle. These new styles are only suited to slender forms, so a very short basque will be conceded to the,corsage of any dress intended for a stout, short waisted wearer. Some of the new sleeves are laid in pleats in a round msloa shape to the elbow, finishing in a close-fitting coat -sleeve from the elbow to the waist. This style is especially advantageous when the dress is in two materials, the top of the sleeve being in the plain stuff, and the lower part in that which is figured or brocaded. Full sleeves, plaited at the shoulder and at the wrist, are seen on cashmere or crape dresses, but they do not seem destined to very widespread popularity. For demi-toilette wear, lace sleeves composed of rows of finger-wide lace encircling the arm, and having a narrow bias band of satin between each two rows, are decidedly in vogue and are exceedingly pretty. They are of the close, coat-sleeve shape and must fit the arm without being too tight. They have, however, the defect of diminishing the apparent length of the limb, and so are not alto

gether liked by ladies who are so fortunate as to possess plump and well-moulded arms. Here is the latest wrap designed by Worth. It is a long Directoire coat, with a full skirt, and is made of black peau de soie, lined with golden yellow satin. It is plaited at the shoulders to a yoke of silver gray satin, figured with large leaves in gray and brown velvet At the back rises a ruff-shaped collar of the aJln The sleeres are melon-shaped, that is to say. lull and plaited, in the blaek silk in a round form to the elbow, from which point a coat sleeve in the gray figured satin extends to the waist. Another wrap is a redingote in velvet in 'ter nate of pin stripes in deep pink and royal blue. It is trimmed with chinchilla fur. and is lined throughout with pink satin. Short wraps of the dnlmin shape, but with loose fronts and set sleeves, are braided with gold and silver to the height of the shoulder, a round tippet or boa passing around the neck af the back and banging in front in two long ends. A most charming traveling dress is in dove-colored cloth, ornamented with brandebourgs in very narro w silk braid of the same color, wich are fastened with oblong buttons in passementerie. This trimming goes down the front of the corsage and also down that of the skirt to th hem. The corsage is plaited in front, and is finished at either side with a double bias band of silk, forming a long end terminating in a bowknot, which hangs over the skirt front. The skirt is caught up at the right si2e so as to show an underskirt of the same material, barred with bands of plush-finished dove-colored cloth. The jacket is in the same long-napped, silkv-nuished cloth, of which the bands are made. The whole costume is in precisely the same delicate shade throughout, and is extremely .tasteful and refined of aspect. BITS OP FASHI0X. Military styles will rule in the jackets of the season. Brocaded velvet is in great favor for wraps, long and short Pearls seem to be the favorites among precious stones just now. , The new sashes are7 very wide, very handsome and very expensive. Plaids are still worn, but only in combination with plain dress goods. Parisian authorities say that bright colors will rale in dress this fall. The fur shoulder capes, modeled on those worn by coachmen of distinction, will be fashionable again next winter. Straw hats will be worn until quite late this season. Black, rough straws, properly trimmed, will not be out of place until the holidays. Loose blouse waists of the "Garibaldi"' faphion, and. indeed, of the "Garibaldi" color, red. in soft silk, are enjoying great popularity in England. Be rreful of your old parasols. It does not cost mush to cover them, and it will be de rigeur next spring that the parasol shall be of the same stuff as the gown. The Greek styles of coiffure do not become popular. The fact is, they require more hair than most "modern women of these degenerate days" either have, naturally, or feel like buying at present high prices. Fnristobea popular trimming the coming season for indoor and morning dresses. Chinchilla fur is also to be popular for trimming gray velvet, with which it forms a graceful contrast Bands of beaver or skunk form artistic trimmings for morning dresses of pale blue or white cashmere. Green in many distinct tints, from golden green to the dark moss and myrtle shades, is a conspicuous color in autumn millinery. It is used in conjunction with black, white, jonquil yellow, pink, Persian lilac, terracotta, certain shades of blue, Roman red, Venetian bronze and many novel neutral tints in plush and velvet shot with a contrasting color. Colored chemisettes of old rose, primrose yellow, or cream white gauze, or India silk, or surah, are made pleated below a high collar, and used to put inside the open neck and revers of house gowns of various colors, as old rose with brown gowns, primrose or lavender with heliotrope, pongee or Tossah silk with green gowns and cream white with any color. A little feather stitching may be of velvet or of moire. New York Post: For home wear are simple and pretty dresses of camel's hair, serge or cashmere, with a pointed bodice, to which a single straight skirt is closely shirred, this bordered with braiding, moire, velvet ribbon in a number of rows, or a passementerie of applique silk cords. Sometimes there is merely a wide hem turned up on the right side and finished with a line of brier stitching in silk. The bodiee is trimmed to match the skirt, and at the back is a wide sash of watered silk, or of a fabric like the dress, finished with a broad hem pressed to lie very flat The fashion of wearing tea-gowns has so increased within the last two years that a number of these picturesque and graceful dresses find a place in the most modern wardrobea These gowns are made in a much more elaborate fashion than was at first the ease, when they presented the appearance merely of an improvement upon the robe de chamber, and were simply donned between the time of changing an afternoon toilet and dressing for dinner. French and English designers now. give special attention to the tea-gown, and vie with each other in producing striking novelties and effects. The original intention of usefulness and comparative ease is lost sight of, in many instances the figure being so closely fitted that the gown may be worn at a dinner party by the hostess, or at auy informal social gathering. Giddy Gossip. New York Mall and Express. The jet or beaded cape does good duty now as a sort of between-senson shoulder wrap. New soup toureens of silver have an arrangement underneath for a tiny spirit lamp. An absurdity In plated ware is a crane that does duty for boiled milk at the breakfast table. There is an increased demand for all old furniture, especially of the revolutionary period. They call the new gold girdles happiness belts, because they make bright the waist places. Imitation palms in pots for the hallway and staircase are hard to detect from the genuine. Small monograms for note-paper have come back, and are stamped in upper left-hand corner. New fashions in kid and other kinds of gloves for women are quite numerous and very beautiful. It is to be noted that girls of the period have taken up the stub pen for their social correspondence. Clucks made of the feathers of different birds are a novelty in time's flight that comes from Paris. Women who wear diamond bracelets in traveling are usually the ones who eat peas with a knife. Glass buttons to imitate emeralds are new and are said to be very effective on black silk dresses. The colored masked veil is more or less worn by women who want either to hide or protect their complexions. A Uoom for the Bible. Boston Transcript Bible readings in parlors will be a feature of society diversion, shall il be said? this winter, and wrll take the place among some of the intellectual that Browning recitals occupied last year. Readers who may conclude from this preface that society is becoming pious will be disappointed when they learn that the new movement finds its supporters among the agnostics, and that the old Bible will be selected solely with the rhetorical 'and oratorical possibilities of its stately language in view. It is understood that a young society man, who quite distinguished himself as an amateur reader of Browning, has studied the Psalms this summer for the purpose of reading them to the ears sated with "The Flight of the Duchess" and "Rabbi Ben Ezra," and is very eager for the opening of the reading season, which usually dates from about Nov. 15. From the Psalms he hopes to progress to the Book of Job, should society graciously smile upon the bold experiment in its first phase. Perhaps to a portion of his hearers the Rig Veda is mure familiar than the Holy Scriptures. How a Texan Bought His Cow. Bandera (Tex. Bugle. We now sport a nice milch cow. now did we get her? Bought her. Paid $10 for her, the whole amount being ten ce&ts per day. saved since March 6, 1SS3. On that day a friend of ours insisted on treating us to asmoke, as it was our birthday, but we refused the kindness, informing him courteously that we never smoked a cigar, to which he replied that he averaged from one to three per day. at a cost of five cents to twenty cents each day, and that be never missed the small change. We told him then that from that day on we would lay away ten cents per day as long as we were able to do so, and see how much it would amount to each year.

Truth Is Mighty. Concord Monitor. This is the composition a new teacher had the pleasure of bearing read in a school cot far from Coneord: "Going to school I like to go to school when we bave a good teacher. 1 don't like to go to school this term."

The Wild Ride. I hear in my heart, I hear in its ominous pulses. All day, the commotion of sinewy, mane-tossing horses: All night from their cells, the importunate tramping and neighing! Cowards and laggards fall back; but alert to the saddle. Straight, grim and abreast, vault the weather-worn, galloping legion. With a stirrnp-cup each to the one gracious woman that loves him. The road is thro' dolor and dread, over crags and morasses: Theie are shapes by the way, there are things that appal or entice ns: What odds J We are knights; and our souls are but bent on the riding. I bear in my heart, 1 hear in its ominous pulses. All day, the commotion of sinewy, mane-tossing horses; All night, from their cells, the importunate tramping and neighing! We spur to a land of no name, out-raoing the stormwind; We leap to the infinite dark, like the sparks from the anvil: Thou leadest, O Godl All's well with thy troopers that follow. , Louise Imogen Guiner. in October Centnry.

The Way to Falry-IaacL What is the way to fairy-land! Which is the road to take? Over the hills, or over the sand Where the river ripples break! The hills stand listening night and day As if to a wonderful tale; The river whispers along its way Secrets to every sail. Thev must be listening and whispering there With th fairr-folk, I know: For what but this is the sound in the air So sweet, and soft and low? The sound that floats o'er the misty hills. And runs with a little shiver; As of a thousand musical thrills. Over the sunning river. O hills that stand so lofty there. Listening night and day. Listen to me and show me where The fairy-folk do stray! And river, river, whisper low, Whisper me low and sweet Tell me the secrets that you know Of the fairy-folk's retreat Noah Perry, in October St Nicholas. ' Advertise Well. Advertise well! 'tis the secret of glory, stick to this principle fast as a leech; Think of the names that are famous in story; advertise well is the lesson they teach. How have men compassed so wide a connection, made the world swallow their nostrums at will? 'Tis that by constant and serious reflection, advertise well is the principle still. Advertise well! you will never repent it; nothing more wise can a business man do. Stick to this motto, and never forget it; advertise well it will pull you safe thro a eh. . Advertise well; do not think what 'twill cost you; publishers' bills are but friends in disguise. How do you know what your caution has lost you! Would you be wealthy, you must advertise. Advertise well! though business bo waning; those who spend freest must win in the end. Up and be doing! no need for complaining; act for yourself, and be your own friend. Advertise well! all lanes have a turning; nothing pays better than paper and ink. Thousands who daily this motto are spurning, find that it brings them to bankruptcy's brink. Yonkers Gazette. "Wlil He Come?"

A man with the Loyal Legion button on his lapel inquired the way to the Illinois Central Depot yesterday afternoon. "I thought at first," he went on to say, "that I would n t go to St Louis, but when I heard that old Tecumseh was there for certain, I packed up, and hope I shan't be too late. He did something for me once that I never forgot It was on the march to the sea, as you folks call it, though when we were going over that country we didn't call it that I was footsore and shoeless. I had dropped out of the line, and was trying to take a rest Sherman came along, and says be: 'Where are your shoes?' I told him I bad none. "Why don't you get a horse or a mule and ridel' he says. I thought that was a queer question, and asked him where I eould get one. He looked around him, and then says: I see lots of niggers riding about here on mules,' says he, 'and maybe you might persuade one of them to get down, as you have your musket' With that he rode off, and I laid for a nigger on a mule. Pretty soon one of 'em showed up, and I leveled my musket. I persuaded him to get down, and I took his place. Later on in the day I met old Tecumseh again, and for a wonder he knowed me. 'Got your mule!' says he. 'Yes, general,' says I. 'Where's the nigger?' he says. 'Don't know,' says I. He looked at me a minute, and says: 'You didn't kill the nigger?' And I says: 'No, General, I just persuaded him. I think the suggestion saved my life, and I would go miles to see the old General once more. That's why I'm hurryin. Good-day, sir, and thank you." The Sly Commodore. New Tork Mail and Exp-iesi. A rather amusing story is told at Commodore Batsman's expense. He stepped to the telephone one day and, calling np the captain of his yacht, began to give orders concerning the vessel, and asked if his instructions of the previous day bad bean followed. Tb,e captain's replies were unsatisfactory, and the naval training of the Commodore became manifest when be discharged an electric flash of profanity along the telegraphic wire at the head of the old sea-dog. He was not aware that there were ladies in the next compartment of his offices, but one of his clerks slipped a note through a crevice readine thus: "There are ladies in the office." The Commodore stepped out quickly from the little telephone closet, and in a tone of highly-offended virtue addressed the young man who handed him the note: "Mr. So-and-So, I never wish to bear you use such language again in this office. See," he added, very severely, "that it does not occur again." Then, with a cherubic smile and the odor of sanctity hovering over him as a cloud of incense, he stepped into the adjoining apartment and greeted the ladies like one who had just been leading a class-meeting. Fattening Turkeys. Lsbouchere's Letter. I stated last week that in former days tame turkeys were fed with walnuts in order to give them a taste of wild turkey. In Italy, turkeys are always fattened with walnuts. Thirty days before the turkey is to be killed, one walnut is stuffed down bis throat Each day he is given an additional walnut and on the twenty-ninth day he has twenty-nine walnuta He is then immenselv fat I have often wondered why our turkey-breeders do not adont this plan.

AMUSEMENT NEWS AND GOSSIP.

"Across the Continent" at the Museum Notes About People of the Stage. Neither the Grand nor English's will be open this week, on account of one of those unforseen emergencies which frequently arise in the theatrical business. An old dramatic friend will put in its appearance at the Museum in Oliver Doud Byron's exciting play, "Across the Continent," which is now in the eighteenth year of its success. The play-bills announce that it contains "seven hundred laugh," and while this may be an exaggeration, there is enough fun, and certainly enough sensation, to please the patrons of this house. The comedy element is in the hands of representatives of various nationalities, a negro, a German, an Irishman and a Chinaman, and there are enough exciting scenes to cause a gallery to get up and howl with enthusiasm. Among these are the railroad and fire scenes. Notes of the Stage. Verona Jarbeau has made the greatest hit among the new stars this season. Robert B. Mantell is actively rehearsing 'Monbars," the new romantic play in which he stars this season. Conrad's "Gypsy Baron" Company are also playing a new opera, "The Vice-Admiral," by Millocher. It is a success. The announcement that Mestayers "Tobogganing1' would be at English's this week, which was made a few days ago, was a mistake. The show will not be here until November. Mrs. Theresa Vaughan, who plays a leading part tn Mestayer's "Tobogganing," is not only a clever aetrees! but one of the sweetest singers on the stage. She was educated for grand opera. Charles H. Hoyt's latest skit, "A Hole in the Ground," is a financial hit at the Fourteenthstreet Theatre, and people are being turned away from the box office nightly, unable to sesure seats. The season of Messrs. Booth and Barrett bas opened in an unusually successful way, and the enthusiastic admirers of this rare combination prop'ofesy something like a half a million of dollars profits. Swestrain, Rice & Fagan's Minstrels are doing a large business throughout the East Tbey are said to actually have that which has been so long sought, a first-class minstrel show, with everything in it new. The tour of the Edwin Booth-Lawrence Barrett company for next week includes engagements of one night in Duluth, Minn; Eau Claire and Oshkosh, Wis., and three nights in Milwaukee, for which they are to receive $3,000 fcr every performance. On Oct 3 the distinguished tragedians begin an engagement of three weeks at the Chicago Opera House. A tenor singer has just made his appearance at Berlin in Bellini's "Norma." His nom de theatre is liiccardo, but he is a Hungarian by birth, and his real name is Palik. He is said to possess the much coveted C sharp. He, was a very successful animal portrait painter, but one day he discovered that he possessed a voice, and, as he believes, dramatic talent He made his first appearance at Breslan, whence he received an engagement for the Opera House in Berlin. Friends of Mme. Modjeska, who have visited her during her period of summer rest, assert that the actress looks forward with emotions of deep contentment to her final retirement from the stage at the close of the present season. She says she is satisfied with her achievements as her record now stands, and can give way with grace, and without regret, to the army of more ambitions aspirants for stage honors. The actress has been prudent as well as successful, and will carry to her San Francisco bankers quite enough of this world's goods to keep the wolf from the door of the famous California ranch.
