Mauy pereons io Auierica iinsgiue<br />
that the heathen are so stupid that<br />
they can never be BO enlightened as<br />
to adopt the biininoaa and literary<br />
habite of Christian nationo. The<br />
truth in, they were ahead of Christian<br />
nations in many of the customs<br />
of the trade. None know bettor than<br />
the Japanese and Chinese how to<br />
pufT their wares, none understand the<br />
value of printer's ink better, nor use<br />
it more freely than they.<br />
For the information of our skeptical<br />
readers, here is a Japanese<br />
book-seller's advertisement:<br />
" Books elegant as a singing girl.<br />
Print clear as cnrstal. Paper tough<br />
as an elephant a hide Customers<br />
treated as politely as by the ri»al<br />
steamship companies.^ Goods dispatched<br />
as expeditiouNly as a cannonball.<br />
Parcels done up with as much<br />
care as that bestowvd on her husband<br />
by a loving wife."<br />
Bamum in his palmy days could<br />
not excel that.<br />
During mr missionary life in<br />
China 1 found the Chinese had flaming<br />
hand-bills posted at prominent<br />
places. One medicine man advertised<br />
his all curing pills. After ex-<br />
hausting the catalogue of diseases<br />
lh«ie pills would cure, he wound up<br />
by saying: " The fact is, my pills will<br />
cnre some diseases that even the<br />
gods can't cure." As his gods were<br />
idol-false gods, this last assertion<br />
was probably correct, if his pills cured<br />
any disease at all.<br />
I visited the pill factory of one Dr.<br />
Lee, who was manufacturing his<br />
" Deer pills," which be boldly af<br />
finned in his placards would cause<br />
the old, the stifT and infirm to renew<br />
their youth and to become active<br />
again like the deer. As proof that<br />
his assertion was correct, ho showed<br />
me his sausage grinder, where he<br />
took the whole deer and ground it<br />
up, hair, hoofs, horns, skin and bones,<br />
all mingled together. In this way he<br />
said he obtained the very quintee-<br />
cence or true essence of the deer, anc<br />
he thought I could readily see his<br />
pills were no humbug, but genuine<br />
deer pills, which would impart to the<br />
user the nprightliness and activity o<br />
the daer. As he did not skin the<br />
animal, but went " the whole bog " in<br />
grinding It up, I had to admit that<br />
he made the Simon-pure article and<br />
no mistake about it. But whether<br />
these aforesaid pills would loosen the<br />
joints of stiff, old people was quite<br />
another thing.<br />
He assured me that his pills had a<br />
big run all over the empire, and that<br />
be received orders for them from all<br />
quarters. As for certificates as to<br />
their efficacj and wonderful cures, he<br />
hod them bj the cart load, if you<br />
wished to see them. Now, where is<br />
the patent medicine man, in anj<br />
ChrisUui oountiy, who has had the<br />
wit aud mgwrity to get up such a<br />
" taking " pill M this youthnnewing<br />
quintMoenoe thrown upon the market<br />
bjr the phllMithropIo Mr. Lee for the<br />
benefit of deorepid hunumitjT And<br />
where am tii« •drertlwm who o«n<br />
excel him in thdr •ppradation of the<br />
value of printor'ii inkt<br />
How can the iwpla know the value<br />
of wares of which they are ignorant T<br />
How can they patronize schuols of<br />
which they never heart and how cau<br />
they hoar without tlie preiisT<br />
If your goods are really worth buying<br />
or your schools flmt-claas ond deserving<br />
a liberal patronage, it is n<br />
reflection upon your sagacity and outerprise<br />
if you lot the heathen oicol<br />
you in the use of printer's ink in making<br />
those facts kno«vn.<br />
The BAPTIST ANI» REFLECTOH wt«<br />
offer you as a flrst-cift-.s iiiodiutii for<br />
making known nil facts, not only con<br />
corning your gotvls, but OMpociully in<br />

our enemies. We liear within our<br />
own natures so much to confuse and<br />
confound and entangle that if we are<br />
not taught pnidonco and understanding<br />
we shall certainly never escape<br />
from the mischief that is within us.<br />
We aro frequently<br />

whs cannot be sure where they are.<br />
It hap|ieneeen free, but have remained captives<br />
to their lusts, never knowing the liberty<br />
wherewith Christ makes them<br />
free. Call you such bondage lifeT<br />
But more, many men exist without<br />
peace, driven to and fro like a sere<br />
leaf by the tempest Never resting,<br />
they are as a rolling thing before the<br />
whirlwind. Call you thaf lifeT "There<br />
is no peace, saith my God, to the<br />
wicked." le that lifeT And then to<br />
have no grand object worthy of yourself—to<br />
be living in this world merely<br />
to get enough breed and cheese to<br />
eat, just keeping youreelf breathing<br />
and your family breathing—is that<br />
lifeT No heavenly object, no ambition<br />
worthy of an immortal spirit, do<br />
you call that lifeT Death before you.<br />
which you dare not think ofl No<br />
hope, unleae it be the ghastly figment<br />
of annihUatfoal Dreadful hopel To<br />
me a thought most horrible I To live<br />
without hope is not life; far rather<br />
call it death. Lord, give me underatandingof<br />
UIT everhwUng testlmo-<br />
niee, then I shaU Uve, but I shall never<br />
liv* till thou doet grant me this<br />
boon. .<br />
III. Now we will take the third<br />
step and go deeper, laying bare the<br />
argument of this prayer.<br />
WUAT DOES UB MEAN<br />
by saying, " The righteousness of thy<br />
testimonies is everlasting: give me<br />
understanding, and I shall jliveT" I<br />
think he means this—that the word<br />
of Ood when it is practically and experimentally<br />
understood by the mind<br />
is a pledge of life. Do you think<br />
that God would take one of us to be<br />
his child and teach us his word, and<br />
then after all permit us to bo condemned<br />
to diet Is that his fashion T<br />
Did you ever hear of a judge who instructed<br />
a criminal in the arts and<br />
sciences lalmriously for years with the<br />
view of executing him when the task<br />
was doneT Nothing of the sort. If<br />
the Lord has taught you it is because<br />
the Lonl has bought you. and he will<br />
not lose the purchase of his blood.<br />
If the Lord has taught you it is because<br />
he means to take you whoro<br />
your education will be completed, to<br />
take you to dwell with himself alx>ve.<br />
" Give me understanding and I shall<br />
live." I am quite clear about that.<br />
THE GROWN OF LIFE.<br />
Once more, the understanding of<br />
God's word is the very flower and<br />
crown and glory of life. When a<br />
man so understands God's word as<br />
to experience it, and to practice it,<br />
he has reached a high point of spir<br />
itual culture, and his life will Iw loaded,<br />
like Aaron's rod, with buds and<br />
blossoms and fruit unto God's glory.<br />
He will wing its<br />
head towards the earth as if it asked<br />
to be ingathered. Let us pray God<br />
to give us an underatanding of his<br />
blessed word, for then we shall be<br />
ripe for glory, and in the highest<br />
sense it will be true that we shall<br />
"live."<br />
I cannot make out the notion of<br />
certain professing Christians, that a<br />
change comes over Christianity as the<br />
ages move on; that there is a Christianity<br />
for the first century, and a revised<br />
Christianity for tho presont era.<br />
We have become very enlightened of<br />
late! You are aware that this is the<br />
marvellous nineteenth century. We<br />
have invented the electric light, and<br />
none can deny that we are the most<br />
enlightened people that ever lived on<br />
the face of the earth! It is not, of<br />
course, pride on our part to say so,<br />
for we are very modest. Among us<br />
there are men who are wonderfully<br />
brilliant—Paul was but a farthing<br />
candle compared with them. They<br />
understand by<br />
CULTDBB AND THODOUT<br />
SO much of these things that it is an<br />
honor to 8|ioak with them. The gospel<br />
that was preached to the poor, which<br />
childlike persons understood by the<br />
enlightening influence of the Holy<br />
Spirit, is in their eyes a veiy poor<br />
bu/Knees. Thoy sneer and turn up<br />
their oultured noses at what they call<br />
" the simple gospel," as if a simple<br />
gospel was meant for simpletons.<br />
Well, tiow, to my mind, this is the<br />
vary bliss and blessedness of the gospel,<br />
that the righteousness of Ood's<br />
testimonies Is everlasting, that<br />
though it has been tried by oriUoIsm<br />
and tested by experience, it romaii|s<br />
the same in its spofless purity and iu<br />
iUi divine infalUbUity to this day.<br />
Do jou want a better gospel, any,<br />
ofycml Qoaadflshfqrit,if youdoi<br />
but not in the waters of truth. Do<br />
you want any nobler promise, any<br />
surer covenantT As for me, I bless<br />
Ood that the righteousness of his testimonies<br />
is everlasting, and by them<br />
I mean to abide all my days, Ood<br />
helping me.<br />

Dear Uro.Fo/A:.—I trouble you with<br />
just a few lines, to say that I most<br />
heartily endorse the plans and suggestions<br />
of Bro. A. M. Johnson, of<br />
Waco Texas, in the BAPTIST AND RE-<br />
FLECTon of May '26th, except thot, instead<br />
of a cheap building made of<br />
rough lumber, let the building be located<br />
where stone cau tie quarried<br />
cheaply and let us build of stone.<br />
Let the roof be self-supporting aud<br />
the frame work of iron and then covered<br />
with copper, and we will have a<br />
structure that will outlast our greatgrand-children.<br />
Let us make it permanent<br />
and sulMtantial and locate it<br />
where all the buildings can be supplied<br />
with pure water, hot or cold,<br />
and then let each cabin or cottage<br />
owner put in bath tulw, water closets,<br />
wash basins, etc., as may suit 'his or<br />
her taste. Then let us put in a five<br />
hundred light or a thousand light gasoline<br />
gas machine and pipes to each<br />
cottage, and also to the restaurants,<br />
the main auditorium, etc. Let us<br />
make it a place of meeting for the<br />
Baptists for ages to come, where we<br />
can meet annually for a month's<br />
work for the Master and the advancement<br />
of His cause, and for the edification<br />
and enjoyment of ourselves.<br />
Let it be open to every Baptist in the<br />
South who wishes to come and<br />
build, and let the Convention then<br />
open its arms and take in one representative<br />
from each and every church<br />
in the South.<br />
Can't wo inaugurate this movement<br />
at the Convention in Nashville next<br />
year and have the auditorium ready<br />
for the Convention in 189i}<br />
Let us go to work at once and g^ve<br />
the matter a prominent phce in your<br />
paper from time to time.<br />
I want to live to enjoy such a meeting,<br />
at least a few years, before I am<br />
called hence. E. A. COLLINS.<br />
Milan, Teun.<br />
—Ethan Alien, the brave soldier<br />
of the Revolution, was an infidel, but<br />
his wife was a Christian. Ho taught hie<br />
daughter that the chief object of life<br />
is to shine in society and in the world,<br />
and made light of her mother's teaching.<br />
The mother with many team<br />
and prayers strove to impress relig*<br />
ious truth upon her daughtar's mind.<br />
Finally, sickness came to that daughter,<br />
and when tho physician pronounced<br />
her case hopeless, she sent<br />
for her father. "Now, father," she<br />
said, "mother tolls me to believe in<br />
Jesus and ho will save me; you say<br />
that is all foolishness—the doctor<br />
tells mo I am going to die and I<br />
want to know what I must believe,<br />
what mother says or what you say."<br />
For the first time in his life that<br />
brave soldier trembled, and^said with<br />
a faltering voioe, "believe what your<br />
mother tells you." So, we ,see^ that<br />
learning, as in the case of Hobbe and<br />
Hume, that viiutdiy and fame, as with<br />
Nelson and Ethan Allen, give^bot<br />
that light whioh illuminates the ^thway<br />
from time to eternity, v^ Wben<br />
the lamp of life 'begins to fiidbir out,<br />

oan banish but the Light, Ohrlit<br />

tions and incidents from his own experience.<br />
He told of baptizing an<br />
entire Methodist chun*b, pastor and<br />
all, in Maryland.<br />
Koanoke is a new and clean city,<br />
but has a dc^l of vice. I counted<br />
in one place thirteen saloons out<br />
of twenty-five successive business<br />
places. Of course not all the city is<br />
so. Bro. Acree is doing great things<br />
here, and I heard large reports of bis<br />
work. A collapsed boom has hindered<br />
the profess of his building,<br />
t but I am told that a new church is to<br />
be up within a year.<br />
Booms are talketl of on every hand<br />
and the evil consetiuences of the mad<br />
rush to get rich in a month are seen<br />
on every hand, in laid off towns with<br />
no houses in them, unoccupied houses,<br />
I poor chun-hes and poor people. The<br />
people will be slower to invest niouoy<br />
in towns on paper hereafter.<br />
INH.<br />
Maryvillo, Tenn.<br />
— We closed a meeting here last<br />
Wednonday night which resulted in<br />
five baptisms nnd two other professions.<br />
Among the number baptized<br />
was our 13-year-old lx)y. Bro. T. T.<br />
Thorn pnon, agent of tho Orphann'<br />
Home, was with us and did the<br />
preaching, and it was dono with nat^<br />
infaction and profit to all. To the<br />
churchen wanting meetings 1 would<br />
nay you cannot do better than to employ<br />
Bro. Thompson, He preaches<br />
the truth in simplicity and power,<br />
leaving church and pastor in liettor<br />
condition for aggreenive work. And<br />
by employing him you will have the<br />
privilege of giving to the Orphans'<br />
Home. And what a privilege it is to<br />
" help the orphansSuch work has<br />
been loft to the Catholics too long.<br />
Our church hero gave him over f200<br />
for tho Home. E. C. FAULKNER.<br />
Now Providence, Tenn., June I3th.<br />
By invitation from Bro. Barnes,<br />
1 visited and preached for our Mission<br />
Church at Erin last Sunday and<br />
Sunday night. The congregations<br />
were good at each service. I was told<br />
by old citizens that Bro. Barnes<br />
' preached during last winter the first<br />
nermon over preached in tho county<br />
by a preacher of our denomination.<br />
The littlo church cousistsof ten mem<br />
bers only, but they are all intelligent,<br />
plucky, and stand well socially. The<br />
foundation for the house is now being<br />
laid and money enough in in sight<br />
to weatherboard, floor and cover<br />
the building. But the church will<br />
be obliged to have help in order<br />
to finish it. Sentiment in favor of<br />
the Baptists is rapidly increasing<br />
among other denominations and outbiders.<br />
Some among other denomitions<br />
are already seriously considering<br />
the question of joining them.<br />
J, H. ANDERSON.<br />
—Owing to a second attack of la<br />
grippe, I have been severely prostrated.<br />
Consequently the churches<br />
of my charge have kindlj granted mo<br />
a vacation. I am at Hygeia to-day,<br />
but learn that the hotel will not be<br />
open until about the 20lh. I will<br />
therefore go to Dawson Springs, Ky.,<br />
and remain a few days, and will return<br />
to this place or goto some watering<br />

—Sweetwater Seminary has just<br />
closed one of its best years, with still<br />
brighter prospects for the future. The<br />
Building Committee reports that arrangements<br />
are made to break dirt<br />
very soon for the new buildings. The<br />
yoar's work has boon very gratifying<br />
both to teachers and friends of the<br />
school. Tho Htudente are happy as<br />
they go to their homes, feeling that<br />
this ban been a profitable year to<br />
thorn. Lust week was filled with a<br />
high order of exercises, aud every<br />
student soemed to IM conscious of her<br />
responsibility, yet " I will do my best,"<br />
was the motto of each. And so tkey<br />
did, and reflected great credit upon<br />
the fai^ulty. The young ladiesshowod<br />
thorough, careful ttaining, and that<br />
high degree of culture and refinement<br />
which is so much admired in<br />
woman. ThtJ yeor has been a very<br />
harmonious one. The teachers have<br />
labored faithfully and the stodents<br />
hare applied themselves closely and<br />
their average grade is very high. The<br />
twelve essays read on Tuesday evening<br />
were superior productions, not<br />
borrotced material. So well pleased<br />
are studente and parente that nearly<br />
every student expecte to return.<br />

year's work for ministerial education.<br />
Twenty-three young ministers have<br />
been aided in whole or in part by<br />
gifts passing through the Ministerial<br />
Board. The good credit of the young<br />
brethren and the Board with our<br />
grocers has made matters move on<br />
smoothly. This credit must not suffer.<br />
We want to do a big year's work<br />
next year for the denomination. Have<br />
you or your church made a contribution<br />
for this Board this yearT Let us<br />
get out of our short-sighted selfishness;<br />
and if one of our Boards is in<br />
lack of funds lot us feel that its demands<br />
are as near and as imperative,<br />

from these noble Baptists have lately<br />
been received. This is the last appeal<br />
for tho rear 1891-2. The credit<br />
of our boys and of our Board must<br />
be saved. Are you going to force<br />

mending Bro. Manard and his family<br />
to tho good people of Tonnessoo<br />
le has been in Arkansas for tho past<br />
two or three years and cloNoly on<br />
gaged in our State Mission work; and<br />
a more indefatigable worker I hav«<br />
never known. I dare sny that ho<br />
has traveled as many miles and made<br />
as many appeals in liehalf of his<br />
work as any other man ever did in<br />
the same time. His labors have been<br />
incessant and unflagging; and Hon.<br />
M. F. Sacke, President of our State<br />
Mission Board, says that Bro. Manard<br />
can do more work than any man ho<br />
ever saw. Aud he is a man of ability<br />
and culture, having been educated at<br />
the University of Virginia, and is a man<br />
of good literaiy taste. He will Im*<br />
missed in Arkansas, and his place<br />
will notlfeeasily fillotl. Mrs.Manard<br />
is an excellent lady, and will make<br />
many friends wherever she may go.<br />
She and the children will be missed<br />
by their largo circle of friends hero<br />
at Little Rock, all of whom join<br />
In heartily oommending thsm to the<br />
friends in Tullahoma, where thoy<br />
will doubtless find a cordial welcome<br />
and a charming home. Bro. Manard<br />
baa had considerable experience id<br />
educaUonal work, and I predict for the<br />
new and promising school under his<br />
management a bright and prosperous<br />
future. The locaticHi and surrounding<br />
country, are certainly all that<br />
oould be asked or deairad, and there<br />
are no good reaaoUa wbj the school<br />

BAPTIST AKJI AlDtLHOl^OA, JtJNB 10. 189U.<br />
Firih Hnuday MccUnr.<br />
At th& last session of the Tennessee<br />
Association it waa decided to divide<br />
the Association into two diatricta,<br />
id each of which a Fifth Sunday<br />
meeting would be held. It was<br />
thought best to do this because of<br />
tho groat size of the Association.<br />
Both divisions are, however, under<br />
the direction of the Executive Board.<br />
But in view of the Centennial movement<br />
it was thought best to have a<br />
Joint meeting of both districts, in the<br />
May meeting, for the discussion of<br />
mission work. The place selectod<br />
was Thorn Grove, 16 miles above<br />
Kuozville, where one of our best<br />
country pastors Rov. A. P. Smith,<br />
exercises the ofhiight of the Baptist<br />
flock. When tho delegates from<br />
Knox ville reached there on Friday<br />
morning the horses, wagons and buggies<br />
about the tasteful new church<br />
indicated a large attendanoe on the<br />
first day of the meeting. We were<br />
not disappointed, for the weather on<br />
Friday and Saturday was perfect and<br />
the people came in crowds.<br />
The program hod been arranged,<br />
and while the brother who was to<br />
preach the introductory sermon and<br />
two of the principal speakers on mis<br />
sionary topics were absent, others<br />
spoke on the subjects assign^ them<br />
and Rev. W. W. Bishop preached the<br />
sermon. The meeting was missionary<br />
from beginning to end and the intense<br />
int«r88t of the people in what was<br />
said is very encouraging for the future.<br />
On Sunday by previous appointment<br />
I preached the sermon of dedication<br />
of the new church at Thorn<br />
Orove. Tbo membera had provided<br />
for all indebtedness but about $10,<br />
for which a collection was taken,<br />
which amounted to, including good<br />
subscriptions, $61. So the brethren<br />
said they would have enough left to<br />
paint the inside of their house and<br />
supply two additional lights, which<br />
will enable Bro. Smith to take better<br />
aim at his night services. Rain on<br />
Sunday interfered with the att«ndance<br />
at night, though a goodly number<br />
were there. Ninety-four State<br />
Mission boxes sent by Bro. Snow<br />
were eagerly taken.<br />
