TEACHERS INSTITUTES.
The Lansford Record editorially
commonti la l:sfc weeks issue on
the value of thS toaohora institute
iu that county to the touchers, oa it
was conducted. It saya the star at
' traotion was paid $150 'simply to
amuse the teachers, " and that a con
cert company costing 100 wna sim
ply a musical, feature, andpertinont
ly oska of that attraction told the
toachord anything about how to im
prove thoir school work. The arti
cle says "that an institute which
would give Priuoipals an opportunity
to exchange practical views on how
to handle scholars, and at the same
time impart knowledgo, would be
worth more to the cause of educa
tion than these high priced fun
makers, theatrical singors and Nor
mal school boomers."
It also doplores the injury to the
schools by the interruption in their
studies, and thinks it would bo hot
ter to hold the institutes during the
summer vacation. There is good
sense in all its remarks. The asser
tion is made that Pennsylvania witli
her muoh lauded school system and
her generous allotmout of funds
for tho support of common and
Normal schools stands the
twenty seventh down the list
of states in illiteracy. If this
is true there is something radically
wrong in the managoment of our
sohools, or the system on which
they are oonducted. We may well
ask do county Buparintondonts su
perintend, and. do directors direot ?
Is thora saffljioiit care exercised in

Cott of Crlns.
Few people perhaps realize the
cost of the system of punishing
crime in the United States. There
are fifty-two penitentiaries and
seventeen thousand jails which
cost in round numbers five hundred
million dollars. These institutions
contained in 1893 nine hundred
thousand occupants who were being
support! at an expense of urn
hundred million dollars per annum.
If the Oiwts of trial and other in
cidental! were added to the sum it
would make an aggregate truly
startling.

The manufacturing industries
which the protective system ban
brought to such perfection are still
Htoadily moving southward and
carrying with them the protection

country. Tho latest example of
this is found in the Indian Head

proprietors have just closed a con
tract for the sale of the entire out
put of thoir mills in China during a
five years' poriod.

tention to tho injustice and absolute
falsehood with which opp jii-mts of
the presont administration attack its
noasure3 rend operations. The Now
York "Journal," tho eastorn mouth
piece of tho silver party, on the
morning following tho presentation
of Presidont MoKinloy's message,
sai l spooifloally in its editorial col
umns that the "President finds the
Dingley bill produoing smaller rev
enues and greater deficits than the
miasurea which his platform de
nounced ever did." Of oonrse the
noasure his platform denounced
was the Wilson law, and the inac

mouthpiece of the silver party is
shown by tho oflloial figures quoted
above.
A revenue law which increases its
earniuga more than twenty-five per
cent. In four months and has a pros
spoot of continuing that increase for
evoral months at an equally rapid
fate ought not to be embarrassod by
suspicion or denounced by people
who profess to be friends of the
p irty framing it. The Dingley law,
which Btartod in under the embar
rassing circumstances under a con
dition in which the oountry has
been filled with foreign goods prior
to its enactmont, has increased its
earnings more than 25 per cent, and
there is prospect that the earnings,
which are now over $35,000,000 a
month, will be inoreased from 15,
000,000 to $7,000,000 per month
mortly aftomthe beginning of the
new year. It is thus apparant that
the people who are demanding that
Congress shall immediately legislate
to increase the revenue are doing an
injustice to the law and to business
interests which are, of course, dfs-
turbed by any proposition for f urth

Toplr, The Witness of the Spirit.
Rcriptijkk Rkawno. Rom. Till, 1-4, 15,
10; t, 1, 8; Xlv, 17; sv, 13.
It is now quite generally recog
nized among evangolical Christians
that a person may have cloar assur
ance that hia sins are forgiven and
be consoiona of the presence and
favor of God. This truth has not
always been held by tho Christian
ohuroh in full view. Multitudes of
earnest souls have earnestly sought
God and served Ilim faithfully ac
cording to the light they possessod
who yet nevor dared be sure that
God was ploased with them and
their labors.
It was the mission of Mothodism
to emphasize the Soriptural teach
ing that a man may not only be
saved from his sins by the grace of
God, but he may also ha ve the wit
ness of his own soul and of the Holy
Spirit to the fact of his salvation.
In recent years this "witness of the
Spirit" has boon made particularly
prominent in tho preaching of many
professional evengelists in all the
different denominations and is an
experience which is reoognized as
that which should be possessed by
every true Christian.
Before the days of Wesley and
Indeed until the Wesloyan teaching
had porvaded the church at large it
was generally supposed that all one
could be certain of regarding his
salvation was that it he was one of
the "elect" he would be surely
saved at last j if not one of the
"elect," he would bo surely lost
Ho could during life only
"hope ho might be saved. He
would nover bo certain that he was
saved till the day of judgmont.
it is now soon that Christ re
doomed every one of tho raoo, that
God offers eternal life to all. "The
free gift came upon all men unto
justirication of life." Evory one
enters this life saved and so oon
tlnuos till actual sin is committed
Even then he is not abandoned, but
the Holy Spirit witnesses with his
own Spirit that he is wrong, sinful
and oondemned and porsuados to 're
pentance and trust in God. If he
turns from the evil and chooses the
good, his conversion ia attested by
his own soul, and his pardon is testi
fied to by the Holy "Spirit of God
when In unwavering trustfulness he
accepts the offera of pardon and
peaoemade by God through Jesus
No one noed ever wander into
actual sin. It is possible though
sadly infrequent for one from earli
est childhood to remain innocent
and grow up in conscious virtue and
favor with God. This is the normal
Christian development. Years of
wickedness, remorse and bitter re
pontanoe is the usual but abnormal
course in whioh men find salvation
Too frequently after one has be
come a Christian neglect of duties
and privileges canses a loss of joy
and conscious acceptance with God.
Every one should occasionally ex
amine his own heart experience and
closoly question himself as to his
possession of the witness of tho
Holy Spirit. It is as unreasonable
and dangerous for a person to live
without this cloar evidence of God's
favor as for one to be careless of the
deeds which give him his titlo to
lands and houses and worldly posses
sions. "Have ye received the Holy
Ghost since ye believed."
All Up-to.Dit Fable.
A frog watching a nearby school
for young horses did not like the
slow progress they were making
under the instruction of an old
teacher.
He communicated his criticisms to
the owner of the school, who won
dering whether thore might not bo
some truth iu the frog's statement,
allowed him to take the placo of in
structor.
Installed in his new office Mr;
Frog straightway bozan to reform
all previous methods of horse train
ing. Instead of giving the horses a
steady amount of exercise aaily and
only now and then allowing them to
go at top speed he made them trot
as fast as they could from the time
they reachod the track until they
left it.
Tho result was that when the
day of the race came, on which they
were to bo tried, they were tired out
and found, wanting.
Moral : Do not reverse all previ
ous order of teaching, nor hold ex
animations nineteen days out of a
month and teach but one. Rather
dliere to the old rule of teaching
all the time and examining but twice
a year.
Note to the editor i The forego
ing is a fable which I am sure bos
never before been translated.

JEsop or not I am unprepared to

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.
Tople For IheWwIi Hnlnnln Dre. 18lli.,
Cnminvnt by R. S). II. Ix;ltt.
Topic Our sins nnd how to g-efc rid of
them Luke xlli, 23-80.
The lesson presonts Christ on His
Inst journey to Jerusalem. "He
went through the cities and villages
teaching and journeying toward
Jerusalem," saya the introductory
vorse. Christ taught not only in
the great confers of population, but
in the quiet, obscure villages.
Wherever there were human souls
there was work for Him to do. He
is asked whether many or fow will
be saved and answers by urging all
to ngonizo to enter in. Many, he de
clared, because of professions of re
ligion, would expect to enter in, but
would be disappointed. The reason
why they would not be saved was
that they were still in their sins.
They had not got rid of their sins,
and the gateway of heaven would
be too norrow to admit them. It
is vory important that we get rid of
our sins. We may have witnessed
the wonderful works of Christianity
in the world, we may have taken
some part in this work ourselvep,
yet unless we are cleansed from sin
whon we stand before the gate of
heaven we will be refusod admit
tance. Nothing that deOleth or
niaketh ashamed shall, enter into
the kingdom of hea ven.
HOW MAVWB GET RID OF OUR PINS?
1. To get rid of our sins we must
be convicted of our sinfulness. We
must first feel that we really are
sinners and that sin is an awful
thing before we will cry out to God
in sorrow for forgiveness. David
had to realize his sin bofore he re
pented. The dying thief realized
that he receiw-d tho duo reward of
his deeds befofc he turned to Christ
for help. So must all realize their
sinfulness beforo thoy will ever get
rid of sin. This should not be a
hard matter. "All have sinned and
come Bhort of the glory of God."
2. To get rid of our sins we must
ropont of our sin. Conviction should
lead to repentance and conversion.
Repentance moans to turn from sin
to God. If convicted of our sinful
ness, there should come into our
hearts a hatred and loathing of our
sin. We should turn from it in dis
gust. But we should not only turn
from sin, but begin at once to serve
God. We should "cease to do evil
and learn to do well." It is not
enough to give up evil ; we must
ear: estly do good.
3. To get rid of our sins we must
have faith in Christ. We must ac
cept the payment Christ has made
for our sins. V We must have our
sins washed !ray in His blood.
Convicted of our sinfulness, we
should be filled with sorrow for and
hatred of sin, turn to Christ, and in
His blood have our sins washed
away, and by hia help and strongth
give np sin. Then, rid of sin, we
shall be ready for heaven, when
Christ colls us.

The Chrlit-ntiss.
Next to Easter the Christmas fes
tival is the grandest and gladdest of
all the Christian year. Its return
should ever be made the occasion
for the rehearsal of the story of the
Bethlehem manger. No heathen
customs or stories should be allowed
to crowd back the Christ story. The
full significance of the advent of the
Saviour should be freshly set before
the minds ol old and young at this
time. The sacrifice of the Master,
the gift of the great God our Father,
should be so clearly understood that
all other giving of this glad season
should take its coloring from this
supreme offering.
Let every church make special re
cognition of the meaning of the
Christmas festival and use the oc
casion for some offerine for the
work of the church.
In our giving let us remember
Him who gave Himself for us.
' - How to Prevent Pnaumonis.
At this time of the year a cold is
very easily contracted, and if let to
run its course without the aid of
some reliable cough medicine is
liable to result in that dread disease
pneumonia. We know of no better
remedy to cure a cough or cold than
Chamber ain's Cough Remedy. We
have used it quite extensively and it
has always given entire satisfaction.
Oolagah, Ind. Ter. Chief.
This is the only remedy that is
known to be a certain preventive of
pneumonia. Among the many
thousands who have used it for
colds and la grippe we have never
yet learned of a single case having
resulted in pneumonia. Persons
who have weak lungs or have rea
son to fear an attack of pneumonia,
should keep the remedy at hand.
