What a foolish prayer ; how ((lad I am that the kind Father above taught me a better one and led mo into a surer, eafer trust in I lira ami a joyous conti icneo in His eoodnes and love. This brought a change that gladdens my heart every time I think of it. Now a I creation, tho words of Jesu, of prophets, apostles and saints of all afr'fs, stifftk to mo of (iod's hounillefglovi', inlinite wiKdom, und illimitablo power, so that it trivt-a hut lutlo pain or sorrow to five nil into Iiis care and say, "Thy will be done." I found my trouhio came iu the lirr-t ce from a lack of faith in (!od, and in the next for lack of patience and resignation, (iol whs not in a hurry and I wan, tnd the iint needed lesson for mo was to "L't patience huve its perfect work." It is a help to me to reflect that (iod has no nee 1 1 hi in a hurry. He has plenty of time in His ternity to lir.it-h tin an) thing that neevU doing and plvnty of room in which to do it, and it will be done for tho best to eveiy be'iur in existence. "If truth crushed to tho earth hall rie adin," and if there be one spark of it in mo, 1 shall ride nrnin and her eternal years be mine. Tis is t-imugh to satisfy man orauifl, when truth makes free ami lovu pires life, tho lifo of (iod, tbero is ii. ore f-r us tfnui we ctm ak, or think.

My Pemi Ibw.M:i) Finnvns This is May day, and oh, whut a lovely day it is; the breeze is a little ftrong, however, l'.l ii"t complain, for windy d.ivs meets the I approbation of "May Mel e," "K. IU" and "Ile'iotmpe." So depite th breeze, wt.icli is a little cruel at tinn-s, 1 have tha audacity to venture out to the May day picnic of the Ii. I.. C, and mv feeble forubodings prompt mo t') beiievo that many of the interested representatives ff the II. Ii. C will represent and take an active part in regard to who tdnil have tho lionor of being crowned queen of May. And now, I've learned to my surpn'so, that my forebodings on this coie have proved themselves true. Oh, the crowd i simply immcLXM', Hiid this larce, intelligent crowd cotnpois mo to believe that many of our members are fond of windy dayn. Ah, me, hern is a nunibt r ot our invalid friends, n.tmeiv: "Aunt Mie," "Aunt roily," "M. K. i;.," and "John." They are having n j.'krioiM oo.l tiuit. and I a:n exci edin:ly :e:ist d to f them enjoving themselves m) weil. Jud.n trum tho rapneity ot tho crowd, it represent many lir'mhtjrs from rjuito a ditan. e. Hero is "l aniier )oy" from Mas.-achueits. lie in not w hut ins num. iiid;iutf h, for he it a man ; h bar u j eculiur step evi-r riiu-o he collided with that locomotive, and tiiia is why I shadow him. Nt-xt is "Jes.-.ie Clyde" from New York. Me is accompanied by "Farmer Hoy,'' and the countenance that adorns her face indicates that she admires picnics. The next is undoubtedly an eastern lady, too; ho has an escort also, but he is a btramter to me, a.s well as herself. However, I'm inclined to believe tho laljr is "Little Ithoda" from Ilhodo Inland, for she is not very large, but nevertheless she is larce enough to be entertaining. Oh, me, I am astonished, perplexed and pleased to tee such a hoe display of flowers out today. True enough spring is here, and the soothing April showers have brought May flowers, for here is a "Peach Blossom," a "Ciilf Kose," a 'Trairie Lhy," a "Hyacinth," a "Sunflower," a "Heliotrope," "a Tansy." a "I'aisy," a "Iloraping liose," aod other Mowers that I can't name, for I atn not very well verged in botany, so I will pass on. Ha, ha, the next attraction that (ireets my optic orbs is brother "Hamlet" and his charming partner, "Tobacco I'.ill." Thev are rehearsing their recent dis coveries and pleasures, they enjoyed while they were sailing northward in tearch of the north pole in their bonny white bird, the Mayhorn. I roust refrain from mentioning several escapades that attracted my attention on the picnic ground duriutr May day, fur this verv reason, there is danger of you going to fdeep on my hands like Urother "Calic . I'.ill did about two months airo, Weil, I did not know that I possessed the power of a mesmerizer heretofore, and I don't know it yet, hut if you'll be bo kind as to permit rr e the pleasure of intruding on your good nature a few moments longer, I w ill return to my previous subject, for I have not related who was "crowned Queen of May." Tho contest was a lively one indeed. Two young gentlemen named respectively rompadoro and "Call co Ihll" endured a comical cpieodo in get ting two ladies to consent to enter tho arena and ri.sk the results of such an ordeal. "I'ompadore's" requests did not seem favorable, for they were rejected with thanks, until be entered the floral display. Then his a'most exhausted ellbrts were crowned a success, and you can imagine how overjoyed he was when he heard the words, "Yes, sir," in reply to his question. C. II. experienced no trouble whatever in ecuring a volunteer, hence the battle was soon fought and the victory won, for both of thom were pronounced queens. The timo for our departure came to pass, and the parting march was sung, with the chorus, with renewed energy. Oood-by greetings were exchanged with a feelina oi eadoeaf.

Then we departed henceforth to our sev

eral homes with that popular "feeling I cau't express," intending to meet again next May day n our all-wise providence permits. Hr'other "Calico Hill," I wish to inform yon, with true courtesy, that you are, indeed, sadly mistaken if you have i!n.igind that your remarks aroused a feeing of contempt in my own heatt toward "Hitter Sweet'' and you. You are also ejually mistaken when you derided that I was attacked by la grippe, I am not that fashionable yet awhile. I think 'tis you that missed the mrk for you misconstrued ny meaning. What I eaid to you was in tended lor a burlesque on your remarks. that was all. Tis timo as we livo wo learn, and if vou was acquainted with me you would underbtand just how to tako me. Where is that Texas lady? Will she not return to the naae soon or will she continue to remain on the background with "Staring Idiot" and "Sunset'." "Kowena" and all other new members, here is a heartr welcome for you. With greetings and a smile lor all, I remain as of old, Advance. May 1. AFTER TWO YEARS' SILENCE. "LttWJolne laaae Wlih"Mew4 Maple" and "Jay Mae." Pear Howard Fbiexds After waiting nearly two years, and having received my certiticato of membership, I come one more to visit you for a short tirco. The j ago has been interesting to mo all along, and I don't claim to be ablo to add anything to the thoughts already expreHed bv others. Neverthel-fS, being somewhat of a negative man and a lover cf bible truth and morality, I must differ with "Maud Maple" in part of her artitle in TiikSentinkl of Nor. 18, '01. Shosays: "Man's real entity, ego or soul, his real nolf is spiritual," and then tells us that Flato and other ancient philosophers de clare that oniv tho spirit is real. Next lr. Pewey, Pr. Fvans and I'rof. Prummnnd are quoted a oflinning that the essontial and real man is spiritual. Now, my dear sister, with all due respect to you as an able writer, I muet ay that 1 am surprised tha. you did not quote from the bible to prove your theory. Vhjr not hear what the Creator says on the subject, (lenesis, vi, : "And the Iord said, My spirit shall not always striro with man, for that he also is flesh.'" Again iioi paid unto them: "lis fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth," t-howing conclusively that the fleshly is the real man. Again, "And Fnoch walked with iod "iM) ycais an I bent sons and daughters. And F.uoch walked with (Jod and he was not, for (iod took him." Now why should wo dispute, tho bible and formulate a theory of our own us nome do, claiming that man in his present state has within an immortal entity called soul or spirit, that it is invisible;, does not occupy space, and lives forever. Tho pen that traces these lines is held in tho riirht hand of the Ueshv msn, tho mind that guides it is r ascd on the brain. Thoso who claim to huve a spirit within not bnsed on the brain ought to bo able t) tell what it is like, whether it has bodily shape, from whence it comes and when aud from whom. Wo ao find in tho article under consideration this statement: "Tho apostles taught that it is the spiritual man that is create 1 in th imnge and likeness of (iod." 1 am persuaded that this is not correct, fro;n the fact that 1 find nothing of tho kind tauirht in tho new testament; but wo do find whero an apostle isteuching Christians bow to conduct themselves at church, snys to tbeui ; "For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the imago ami glory of (Iod. I Corinthians ii, 7. Also, another apostle eys, speaking of the tongue: "Therewith bless we (iod, even tho Father; and therewith curse wo 'men which aro made after tho similitude of (iod, "Jeremiah iii, i. I am awaro of the fact that a laro majority of the religious world dill'er with mo on this subject, but I a:n content as lonir us Christ and his upo.-ah s nre on my side, or rattier that 1 agree with them. Now. a word to "Jay Mack," I cannot agree with you as to "how shall we appear," if you mean when we enter upon our future life beyond the eravo. You seem to base your hope of a future lifo on the sayings of Solomon, Med. x ii. 7 inpteadof Christ and his upostles and ignore the resurrection of tho body. Christ navs of them that bcliovo on him, "I will rai?e him up at the last day." John vi, 40 and Paul says, in speaking of tho resurrection of the body: "It is sown u natural body; it is raked a spiritual body," I Cor. xv:4l. Many other scriptures niiu'ht he given on this subject, but enough has been quoted for this time. I hopo Jay Mac will write attain soon and vivo Iiis viewn ruoro at length, and correct me wherein I am wn ng. (üve scripture, book chapter and Vt rte. to base your opinions on, anl we wi'.l have a nice friendly light. I am an old union soldier and have fought TenneseeaiiH down in (Jeorpia in ls'il. With good wishes to all the H. L. C. members, and success to TheSkntisel, I close for the present. Li ke. In the gas belt, May ft. FROM THh. X. PRESIDENT. oflowsrd" IHicimi Several Toplea et Hecent Appearance on the fage. Pear Brothers and Sisters of the II. L. C I will drop into tho parlor for a random chat with the members on a few topics which have appeared on the page of late. To tho question presented by "Ella Quent," "Shall intoxicants be sold at the world's fair?" I vote no. I fully agree that it would be a disgrr.ee to this country to allow it, and I hope it will not be done; and to further tho movement in this direction, I had the pleasure of signing a petition to this eflect, which was presented in one of onr churches a few weeks ago. If these petitions have been pretty universally presented in all the churches throughout the United States, it will make the most voluminous petition ever pre sen teil for any one object. But when it is presented to the world s fair commission era, with perhaps its millions of signa tures, as an honest expression of the de sire of the best citizens of the country, it is doubtful if it will carry much nioro weight than the avoirdupoiso of the paper upon which it is written, especially if it should go oelore rren who look more to the financial success or the revenue they may derive therefrom than to any princi ple it may involve. Sucn is the weight the considerations of money have over tho masses oi the people today that when any principle is pitted against it for supremacy it is too often money wins and principle goes down. This brings me to the words of "Fairv Preatrer. Trulv thou hast said it. mr friend "The dollar is mighty in our civil ization, llie mania for wealth has grown so strong within the past thirty years, and the temptation to speculate and re ort to dishonest means to get it hare become so strong and so frequent, that it has corrupted almost every branch of Lfuiuierg. It may bs concluded as right to make money honestly and honorably up to a limited point, but I doubt the right of any one to accumulate millions to the det riment of the masses, while there are million! oi Door men and women whose

lives are a constant struggle for maintenance, with poverty and suiiering on erery hand. How many men of fine intellectual powers and business capacity havo gone down under this mania, by gambling on the board of trade? F.ven we see members of our chuarhes indulging in this delusive dream of great or sudden gains, even at the sacrifice of principle. "Inez," tqis thought reminds me of your good letter of hist week on progressive euchre. I maintain that all card playing is bad, because it is tho door to gambling, anil progressive euchro when played for a prize is plain, simple gambling, just as much so us when n company of ineut.it around a tablo and eacli put up a sum of money and all play for tho stake, tb j winoor getting it, and all the rest arc "boobies." It docs not militato tho evil a w hit because the game is played in some church deacon's parlor, and his charming daughters lead the game with their smiles and winsome ways, or that the prize is a eilverpitcher instead of the "cold, clammy coin." "Jaclnta," how glad we all are to greet you among un again. Your letter was good. Truly, life is made, uo of. little things, and if those little things aro good thoughts and kind acts, the life will be one noble creed to shed its light and blessings to all. Hope your life is free, bright and joyous; come often. "Lilly Pale." if you change vour "mom" we lose your identity, and it is like losing a dear friend from our circle. Why don't

Hsllot whoarethoso around the tablo at tho head of the page this week? Tho president and his assistants? However, I move u vote of thanks for this appropriate representation. Mr. President, I havo had tho floor quite long enough, so give place to eloquence, logic and lore. Lver truly vours, "Howard." from ihk president. A Variety of SaKK'ailune nt Oneatlona to TlOak Abi Mkmkeks and Friends "Gie us time, and we will have a great club," said our very kind editor in a recent business letter to me. No doubt of it. Great in influence for lasting troo.l beyond the temporary entertainment of the reader; great as an opponent of our social and national disorders, which confound the sensen, astonish reason and almost subvert faith itself ; great in cultivating the spirit of deep research and careful study, the only path to the fountain of truth; great in purity und brightness; great us a means ot developing tlio four-fold energies of our natures. There is a wido ephero in which man is as free as (iod in his inexpressibly greater sphere. Siu makes man wrong in conduct and condition, but wo are conscious of causative energy. Man'a will-power uses tho intellect for light, tho sensibilities for motives. Tru st pieasuro is found only in the manifestation of tho pure spirit of true greatness, or correct views of subjects of tho grivest importance to all. Having no salaried officers, our club oilers no selfish benefits to anyone. Wo ever welcome, uh members, all who truly love truth and justice. I'roof to tho club of genuine interest in club objects, in the form of our application circulnr. furni.sheu on application by the recording secretary, is justly required of all applicants. To our ever increasing host of worthy friends, far and near, let mo again mv, kindlv entreating, "Come in." Club objects, as stated in standing mutter, are of the profcundest importance to mankind. Our purpose is to widen humiliatiug'.y narrow conviction of this fact. To pet people to think logically is, you know, one of the hardest of tusks. None heed entertain low thoughts, peculiar to the seltish gratifications of this life. Sincursed earth stiil plows with beauty and grandeur, that wo may not ceu.o to exalt and expand the mind and heart, but man cannot exalt abstract ideas of reform, leaving tiod out of tho account, everything must be judged from the standpoint of Christianity, the only vital ethical source. If "lives of great men" teach ns anything it is that they who think upon things true, lovely, just and good, soon become imbued with the sarao sweet spirit. This is' a moat consoling thought a wonderful stimulus to resist the evil forces within and without, which seem necessary to the full development of a well rounded Chrifctian character. Delay in answering many kind letters from members is owing to the fact that I have totally failed to recover my health. I know you will excuse me, friends, and remember I hope to fetill be cheered by all who have a kind word. Congratulations to "FdUh Bolle," with the hope thai her little "dark-eyed etranger" may long; continue with her and husband as a deep sourco of joy and a blessing to the world. I regret to state that a majority have failed to respond to my request to know their wishes about a badge. 1 respectfully repeat the request, which I am not awaro is out of order.

If our ambition leads us to excel or seek to excel in that w hich is good, the currents it may induce us to support will bo none but legitimate ones, but it it is stimulated by pride, envy, avariciousnchs or vanity, wo will conlino our support principally to tho counter-currents of lifo and thus leave behind us misery and destruction. An ambition to be thought great in noble qualities may lead us to appear good, but when w only act from ambition und not from nspiration we re eubjct to fall at any moment sinco it wen vain to expect selfishness to long Continus in any right action.

She Describes In Pleasant Language What the Wind Whispered. Dear II. L. C. Friends I will try to entertain you for a few minutes only, on a subject that tho wind whispered in my ear. The beauties of nature in living colors and beautiful forms are spread everywhere around, the pencilings of her deft and skillful fingers are so delicately and so exquisitely performed that we are entranced in admiration. Now in the merry pring time the air is redolent with the ougs of birds and reviving nature, after a season' repose, is clothing all things in liveries of green. How we love and delight to commune with her in her happy and peaceful moods. Nothing so pleases the eye and delights the ear as beholding the budding leaves and blossuins, this tlitting songsters and the sparkling sunlight, clothing all in the most delightful colors. Aa the genial rays of the morning sun gild the tree topi and Tales with an effulgence brilliant and sparkling in tho extreme, we see the penciling of nature spread out in panoramic view before us; but when she has oue of her sorrowful moods and weeps in sympathy with her surroundings we see her no lees beautiful and gay. As the clouds disperse and tho tears are wiped partially away and the sun bends forth her gladdening beams wo seo asinile gently stealing over her face and tho remaining tear-drops pendant from every twig and bough and hanging from every leuf and blade of gra-s presents the splendors of that arch whose bow spans the heavens and whose glory is beyond the power of pencil to paint. Now, before I go I want to introduce to you my cousin ''iirown Eyed Olive," hoping you will make her welcome, I would like to call you all by your names and bid you come again to tho page, but space forbids.

As this is somewhat a mere introduc tory I will not appeal to your reasoning and inductive faculties, but plainly give my opinion of the literary and social benefits of the club in a conversational way. I have read the productions of the society in the State Sentinel for almost a year and think them ery good. They are not letters, but lessons. Not only do they impart knowledge to the reader, but also to the writer; for him he learns th harmonious and applicable use of rhetorical diction; the reader is stimulated by the desire to gain celebrity and popularity, and thereby gives to both "valuable instruction and benefit. 1 would like to see the II. L. C crowd all advertisements from its pago and make a page of uninterrupted literature upon whose standard is inscribed the enduring davico of "IIonok, Love and Charity."
