Grumblers exert a good religious in flueoce. It people ail looked on the bright aide, and talked about pleasant things, this world might seem to be a very good kind of a world to be in, and people would be in danger of being Wiling to stay here too long. But a first-class grumbler, or few of them, will eerily bring out, clear as the sun at noon-d»y, foults In the general make up and condition of affairs here, so many and so great, that heaven will become very attractive. There is perhaps a little danger that it may be carried so for that even the other and warmer region may loee its terrors. In fact T.

And they do ail they can to make tt aa bad as they represent tt, and deserve credit for their skill and diligence.

They may be a bad Job, bat they didnt make themselves. And if they are only put to good uses they may be of some little value. And it is a commit to know that by and by they will go where, with all their native and acquired skill at grumbling, it will be difficult for them to do full justice to their surrou^hig^

Notwithstanding the thunders of tbe pulpit, the Jeers of the press and the contumely heaped upon it from every quarter, the doctrine known as Spiritualism la unquestionably making progress, and. what is more, many of Ua latter-day converts are claimed from tbe ranks of Intelligent aod thoughtful people, suppose we should not be surprised at the mysterious I® the progress of any religious foith, for religion and the oMunreloua have always been closely asaodated, but there dues seem to be something singular and unaccountable In the way spiritualism gets on. There $s no denying the foci that many of its believers ace among the best odocafced and most respectable people In the country—people who one at first hears with genuine sstontshment areprofoaaontof a&lth which he has been used to sneer eta* the superlative of absurdity Net that the cardinal doctrines of splritttaliaui are absu«l but the Juggiertsh Mappings through whioh It man! ftaeff.

It is tbe s*edws (yetf of spiritualism which puts oar crrdnlity to the test. The manner Omm revelations and the results of them are what surprise tt*.

V^lth the manner of their recepuoh moat of |ti am ajorc or less fiuxtiliar. There is a dark rooin eontaining a small cloeet or cabinet in-which the medium is pisood. 'She speotators sit In abalfclrcio ip front of it holding oach otbore' hands, Various niajioal Instaumenla aiwhui§ inside ^ie cabinet, from which sounds are frequently produced during th§'prqgress of the performance. Hands to&ii taom aroshown at a curtained opening in the cabinet which are said and supposed to be those of persons fomlHar with certain of those present. These are indications of materialised spirits snd they deliver their unimportant messages through the mouth of the medium. On very successful occasions the spirits sre able to manifest themselves In the full dress which'thoy were accustomed to wear on earth and are thus easily recognised. It Is said that during the visit of the Russian Countess, fllsvataky, roeently, to the house of the

Eddy Brothers in Vermont, which has beta the seat of marvelous spiritualistic proceedings for some months past, there sppesred on the first evening an apparition wearing a lull oriental dress, which the Countess recognised sa* a fkvorite servant of her sister, living in Caucasus, She spoke to him In Georgian to which he made no reply. Then she spoke to hint In Russian, "If it be you, knook five times." There came five strokes on the guitar. At her request several of the Russian national airs were correctly played. On subsequent evenings the Countess was privileged to see several other Turkish people whom she knew in the flesh, among them Safer All Bek Ibraham, a Kourd warrior, who bad been one of tho body guard of the countess* husband. He was in complete uniform "and picked from the bare floor, in fall view, a peculiar weapon which she recognised as the Kwurdlsh lance." All of which is very strange if true. But these things are so different when one comes to sfle them from what they are represented to be by those who have witnessed them through credulous or prejudiced eyes! I have been witness of a fewseanoeswhich gave mean utter disgust for the evening's perform ance, while others who were present went away impressed with the marvel ous character of the revelations and half-converted to tho religion of spiritualism. There is something in these darkened rooms and closets with only a little curtained aperture, in this beating of drums, ringing of bells and thrusting out of phosphorescent hands and feces, so suggestive of the tricks of the coajurerl Still, if a Kourdtoh offlcxv should come out in full uniform and piek up a Kourdish lanoe from the bare floor In foil view of the spectator" ho would be another Thomas who oould doubt. But then you and I, reader, have never beheld such a teat of spiritualism and we must doubt ©r believe accowUng to that we have seen. Far my own part I may have bean exceptionally unfortunate in my efforts to in vestigate tbe phenomena of spiritualism, but ao for my endeavors have led to awrih barren rasulta that I am ready to confens to having little intewat remaining in the xutyoct. if there *r® aplrlta, and if they live near or around as, and If they have anything to communicate to mortals either of interest or value, why can't they come to us in tbe silence of our chambers whea we would be in a fit frame of mind to reeeive their visits and heed what they have to say Why these gew-gaw trapping of tho Juggler through

A Baltimore groom, of high social standing, "smiled" so often on the way to the wedding that he got discouraged and was carried home to rest.

The words were few, but they worked a great change in the wife's feelings, and the husband doesn't go out any more evenings unless she goes along,—[Detroit Free Preas,

Dr. Holland says "Whenever any pure, true, good woman marries a man whom she loves, she gives himself to him. She belongs to him. He owns her as no other man on the face of the earth does or can."

She owns him as no other woman on the face of the earth can own him. That is my theory of marriage. {Mrs. Livermore
