the Presbytery reports to tho synods and the synod to the Ahsouildy.It was this Qnal review of the state of religion in the church and community thut was presented last night by the Her.Mr.Kodgtrs,under these heads : Returns ; Conference?; Church Ordinances; Christian Liberality : Prayer Meetings ; Religion In the Home ; Sabbath Schools and Bible Classes ; Hlndcracces to Our Work; Revival.Under the head of \u2022* Religion In the Home,\u201d there were very clear and decided utterances by various ministers on the evil of allowing the house of God being made a place for amusements, and uio need of cultivating, what Mr.McDonnell very happily termed In a vigorous speech, \u2022\u2018domtstlcltv,\u201d or the habit of families finding their chief happiness in horns gattilr* Ingsand h> me joys, instead of the excitement of the church social, church opera, and church theatre.The following recommendations were (after van U terestingspeeches, which showed that the P, \u2022 ubyterlan Church has taken alarm at the tcnrithcy of church gatherings to run to fun, froth arid frivolity) unanimously agreed to: I.That n pastoral letter on the subject of Family Religion and of the Congregational Praxei-Meetings bo issued by the Moderator of this Atsembly, to be read by all Ministers and MUsionatles to their congregations upon the first Sabbath of October, or such time as may be deemed most suitable.IL That the same day be observed as a day of humiliation before God, confession of past short comings and united prayer for tho revival of his work among us, and to this end.for an abundant baptism of the Holy Ghost upon minister* and people alike.III.\tThat ministers and elders be enjoined to deal falthfu^y i.nd kindly with beads of families neglect!ug«ho Important duties of family religion.IV.\tThat instruction bo given to the Committee on tho state of Religion (to be hereafter appointed) to tske Into consideration and report to next Assembly to what extent tho system of deputations, so largely employed by tho Presbyterian Churches of Great Britain, In connection with this department, might bo bene-ficlallv introduced into this Church.V.\tThat In tho meantime Presbyteries be enjoined by deputation or otherwise, to do what they can, to awaken the zeal and to promote the life and vigor of congregations within their bounds.VI.\tThat every encouragement bo given to mlnlatet s and elders to assist each other in special services on all opportune occasions, so as to promote a healthy and lively spiritual Interest In all the congregations of tho Church, and If possible, to make inroads upon the careless, aud ungodly around ; and that in,these services special attention be given to the large propottlon of our youth still outwardly undecided for Christ and His Church.order, aud modes of procedure.A motion wa* made at last that the report be sent back to the committee with instructions to delete that obnoxious clause, hut.as tbs time wa* very late \u2014an hour.Indeed, beyond tho time of adjourn nitfnt\u2014a motion for adjournment was made will,-b.of course, slopped further discussion There may emerge dltfereuco of optulou in foil,la of detail, but latuona Imsxiue from this Itch that there Is any wavering in theadvanio) of the temperance sentiment lu a church which Is often slow to move, hut which, when It does move, seldom beats any retreat.HHEUBKOOKE STREET CHURCH.YYK1.COHE TUB ('OMISO;

and he would sit and tell about early days in that country, to a company of a dozen men, by the hour.He was sometimes a little uuerulou», and his stories grew stale after a wnilo ; but he held valuable property in his hands ; and Mr.Marsden had long coveted it, and looked upm John Mason\u2019s stubborn hold of it as in the way of the capital that he wanted to invest right there; and he had determined, that by some cuane, he wculd get tbo title to that farm transferred to himself.He was willing to pay a ipeculator\u2019s price, and he looked upon Mr.Monroe's brandy as a valuable auxiliary in this effort.Therefore while he drank little himself, he helped John Mason along the slippery path of moderate drinking, and listened to his stories, and flattered the old man\u2019s little vanity, until be esme to believe that Mr.Marèdtn was .his one appreciative friend ; and he went regularly to meet him, for a little while after supper, at the hotel.And thus Mary Maitn was alone; and a cloud rested open the light of the cheerful living-room of^ the farm-home.The boys were on time that night, excepting Harry Hiffeubaum.He had told his mother the whole story cf the excursion, and tho organization of the club; and *he had advised him to have nothing to do with it.Jimmie received the boya in the bar-room, and led tbe way to pleasant little parlor, fitted up for private parties, with a couple of small tables for cards or refreshments, easy chairs, and good picture*.The boys were followed soon by Mr.Monroe, who snook hands with each heartily, and bade them make themselves perfectly at home, and have a good time.The boys disposed themselves about the ublee, and began to talk up plans.\" Now,what are we going to do in our club r asked Willie Knowlton.\" Have a good time,\u201d said Jimmie.- Yes ;\u2014but what kind of a good time ?We mmt have some plan.\u201d \u201cI\u2019U uU you, boys,\" said Archer.\u201cWe must have.a constitution, and a plan, as Willie says.My mother asked me what we are going to do down here to night, and 1 told her I didn\u2019t know; but were going to make some plan.\u2019\u2019 \u201c Make it a sort of Lyceum,\u201d said Frederick; \u201cread, have essays, music, and 'spout,\u2019 as we do at college in our class societies.\u2019\u2019 \u201c I thitk that\u2019s a good idea,\u2019' said Roy ;

1 we'U none of us stand that.\u201d I\tdon\u2019t see what there is to get mad about,\" said Jimmie.»* WeU, we'U put it in the constitution somewhere, so you can find out,\" said Archer.\u201c You\u2019re to apt to do such things, for our good as a ship's company if you are captain.' \u201cI was only in fun,'' said Jimmie; \u201cbut Roy\u2019s mother is so careful of him, 1 really did not know but she would object to his staying ont late.\u201d \"Seme of cur mothers might object,\u2019 said Willie Knowitcn ; \u201c my mother is careful.\u201d \"We may just as weU have it undentood from the first, boys,\u201d said Roy, speaking for the first time, \" that we have mother?, and fathers, to report to\u2014and arrange accordingly.I shall not go into anything that starts out to ignore this ; and another thi:.sr\u2014aU that sort of banter is to be let alone; I won't stand it, for my part, from any feUow\u2014not s minute.\u2019 There bad been something peculiar in the attachment of Roy and Jimmie, for each other from the first ; they were alwavs sparring^nd yet wanted to be together.Roy was quick, and Jimmie rash and selfish, to a degree that made Mm constantly provoke those with whom he associated.And Fred had often acted as peacemaker between them.Jimmie was always the first offender.Roy never provoked people and he was magnanimous to an offender, if he oonld find any chance to be so.So he \u201c swallowed his anger,\u2019* after a moment, and reaching ont his hand said : \u201c And now, Jim, let\u2019s not quarrel\u2014but have a good time for a little while, and then go home.\u201d \" AU right, old feUow,\" said Jimmie, striking Roy\u2019s open palm with bis and then giving a grip toai almost made even him flinch, and a/kcdi: \" What shall the good time be ?\u201d \" A story,\u201d said Archer.\u201c AU right, a story let it be ; who shall tell itr \" Fred and Glande for a song,'' said Roy, \" for they will be gone next week.\u201d \" That's so,\u2019\u2019 said Captain Jim.\u201cAnd \"\u2014 They were interrupted by a Up on the door and tne entrance of a young man in a long white apron, bearing a tray of glasses and bottles.1 * AU right, Frank,\u201d said Jimmie ; \u201c pat it here on the table.Yon may draw the corks.Boys, this is Frank Benton ; hasn\u2019t been here long,bnt he'll know just how to poor ont a glass cf wine for you any time.BatheisanawtoUy sober boy,\u2014never langhs.and Jimmie slapped him on the shoulder.Tbe young man smiled, and drew the corks.\u201c You are a sober feUow now, aren't yon, Frank 1\" persisted Jimmie.The young man flushed slightly, and repliol : \"That dependson circumstances and turned towaid the door.\"Stay, Frank,\u201d said Jimmie, \u201cand have a glass with ua.You are agood fellow, anyhow they'Ugct along without you for a few minute» Take off your Lib, and join us for a drink.\u2014Nay, boys, we were cheated out of oar toast that bight on the island; and I propos» we have it now.\u201d \"Thought that wasn\u2019t to he taken from the table nil'll Christinas,\u201d said Roy.\"The toast isn\u2019t that,\u201d replied Jimmie.\" We\u2019ll drink tie toast,and ao go back to where we began in good fellowship.Drink standing to \u2018 the be«t mothers nine boys over had ;*\u2014I believe that was tho way that it was put.\u201d \u201c Kxcuse me, boys,\" *aid Frank hastily sating his glass on the stand ; \" guess they\u2019re calling me.\u201d And he picked up his apron and dashed oat into tho hall.\"Dear mel\u201d ejaculated Roy.\u201cDid you tee how white he was?\u2014wonder what\u2019s up with him ?\u201d \u201c Wi ll, never mind him,\u201d said Jimmie, impatiently.\u201c Let's drink the tosst before any-thing else happens.Frank\u2019s a queer feUow anyhow.\u201d The glasses were drained and refilled, and the boya seated themselves to listen, and drink at their leisure.Tbe story was told, and the song sung followed by riddles and conundrums, mingled freely wit h wine.And thus the evening passed, and the boys were &U more or less under tbe influence of the poison when they started for home, Archer and DiUie especially.Roy went homo with DiUie, after they left Archer and Fred.Fred w»m vexed that Archer should be so nearly drunk, and was afraid the fact would be discovered before he could get Mm into their room ; but ho was favored in this by the fact his mother was not well, and had retired ; and his father simply spoke to them as they pass ed up-stairs.Dulie\u2019s mother had always, from her chUd hood, been used to having the men of her home coming in with unsteady steps; and so he got in without much notioe.Roy felt the wiue, but did not show it cnongh to excite remark.Bnt ho feU asleep that night whUe his mother was talking with him.\" Poor boy,\u201d ihe said, \"ho is very tired.\u201d And eheki-t: d him and went down.(To L Ccnlmtud.) CLEANLINESS IN THE DAIRY.If there is one habit which any one who keeps a cow sbonld avoid incurring, it is a habit of uncleanliness in butter making.We are now speaking more particularly of uncle&nliness at the time of milking.Any imparities which may come in contact with the milk wiU so infect it with an offensive odor as that its presence may be detected in the butter product, although it has been strained and churned and worked and rinsed most thoroughly.This fact is generally known by farmers and dairymen ; but they do no; always attach to it due importance.In a largo dairy the milking must necesfarUy be done by \" hired help/\u2019 and it is a deplorable fact that the average hired man scarcely ever has sufficient interest in his work to take each care as is needed at milking time to keep the milk chan.Bat, of coarse, there are some exceptions to this rale.Even in a small dairy, where bat few cows are kept and no help employed, a careleaanees and nncleanUceis ia too often noticeable, and the good farmer has none bat himself to blame if there is astrange odor about his batter as ho spreads his bread or if he finds that his butter fail?to bring tbe best price in market.We were conversing, recently, with an exporienoed dairyman on this subject, who receives from twenty to thirty cents more per pound for his butter than most others get, and ho said that he never sat down to milk a cow, nor ever per.mitt:d ai y one else in hi?employ to do sol without having first thoroughly cleansed the cow\u2019s udder and teats, a* well as her body and land legs, from every vestige of impurity.We are fully aware that it is no pleasant matter to go through such a process of cleaning and washing on a cold winter\u2019s morning, when the \u2022Mnnomettr register?ten degrees or more below zero ; lut eternal cleanliness ia the priej (f pare tetter and it will pay in the end.A plentiful supply of bedding, either of marsh gr«»s or straw, should be given the cows every nikht, which will prevent much trouble on tho prit of the milkman \u2014N.F- Jndtj endtnt.TALK TO YOUR HORSE.Some man, nnknown to tho writer hereof, has given to tho world a saying that sticks.: \u201c Talk to your cow as you would to a lady.\" There is a world of common sense in it.There is more; there is good sound religion in it.What else is it but the language of the Bible applied to animals : \" A soft answer turn'th away wrath.\u201d A pleaeant word to a horse in time of trouble has prevented many a disaster, where tho horse has learned that pleasant words mean a guaranty that danger from punish-mi nt is not imminent.One morning, a big, mu?-cnlar grcom said to Lis employer: \u201cI can't exercise that horse any more.Ho will bolt and run at anything he sees.\u201d The owner, a small man, and ill at tho time, asked that the horse be hooked up.Stepping into the skeleton, he drove a couple of miles, and then asked the greem to station along the road each objects as tho horee was afraid of.This was done, ard the horse was driven by them quietly, back and forth, with loose linesslapping on his back.Tho whole secret was in a voice that inspired confidence.The man had been frightened at even thing he saw that he supposed tho horse wculd fear.The fear went to the horse like an electric message.Then came a punishing pull on the lines, with jerking and the whip.Ifelk to yonr horse as you would to your sweetheart.Do not fear but what he understand?and appreciates loving tones, if not the words, while it is by no means certain that tbo sensitive intelligence of many a horse does not compte bend the latter.\u2014QantU.LIGHT ON THE DAILY PATH.Jvn 22.Where is tby God f-P*.xlii.3.If we love cne another, God dwclleth in os.\u2014 1 John, iv.12.Know ye not that ve arc the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you f\u2014 1 Cor.ill.1C.Fo» Evert Good Deed of oars, the world will be the better always.And perhaps no day doea a man walk down a street cheerfully, and like a child God, without some passenger# being brightened by his face, and, unknowingly to himself, catching from its look a *j me thin g of religion, and sometimes, not impossibly, what just save* him from some wrong action.PRACTICAL COOKERY IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.We are beginning to see that the modern neglect (for it is only modern) of the practical teaching of domestic economy ha* left a sal blank in the training of girl* for home life, a blank wbioh affecte more eeriously and more distinctly the homes of the working olaases, bat whtch is felt in other ranks also.To the growing conviction of this need we owe the existence of our schools of cookery, which began with the Netional Training School of Cooktry at South Keudugtun,and have quickly spread all over the country.Training aud other schools of cookery are now astabllahed in many large towns, such as Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds,Leamington, and Liverpool,and all these act as centres from which teachers cau be sent to smaller town within their several districts.The most satisfactory results havt attended the teaching of oookery in Hospitals, Training Colleges, Induetrial Schools, at Temperance meeting», night Ragged Schools, for both hoys and girls, and sometime» also at mothers' meetings.But the i xperlsnce of all the Hcbooli of cookery has pointed to the same fact\u2014that however successful tho artisan clasne» hold for women had proved in attracting the public they were a failure as reg«urded the pîmanen1: iroprevt ment of tho houicsof tho poor.Wivei and mothers were found to be too confirmed in their own thrift less ways, and too idle, to take up now one» that involve thought aud iudu»try.Tney talked of dicent cookery as something more costly than their own wasteful extravagance ; end in abort would not be troubled.But tbo schools girl» of to day will become the wives and mothers of to-morrow.If we teach them, while »till at school, they will carry into their home» a knowledge, which daily use will not only keep from rusting, but which will improve with the using, and be a power for gcod in health aud in bicknes» all thci.^ Tq the elementary school#, therefore, tho ad-vccatea of cookery have turned as the best field for their efforts.The manager» of those school», both Board and Voluntary, undertake the education of the working classe», and aro, therefore, bound to comider the position in life occupied by their schoUrs, and to provide such au education a» will best enable them to fulfil the demande of that position.Nocdle-work is recognized as necessary for every girl, and the art of providing nourishing and whole-seme food can scarcely bo regarded as a matter of less importance in her home life.To those who object that children of thW age are too young to learn cookery, and that it can bo of no ub© to them, lot the following incident be a reply.A few weeks ago the writer of this paper was visiting a poor shoemaker in a low part of one of our large cities, who had just been left a widower with eight children, from two to fourteen years of age.He was very hopeful of being able to take care of them all himself, but owned to one weak point, \" I am but a poor cook,\u201d he said, \"can only manage potatoes ; bat if my girl Maggie (aged 10) can learn cooking at school we shall do finely, for she is quite strong enough for that.\u201d Happily for the comfort of that family, Maggie attends one of the schools of the Liverpool School Board, which more than two years ago introduced Practical Oookery into its time table.\t.The question of Government grant being settled and managers able, in April, 1883, to claim fonr skillings a head for Practical Cookery, as well as the four shillings for Domeitic Economy, tho diflioulty a?to accommodation and plans may next be dealt with.Several of the largest schools of cookery have employed the experience of the last three or four years in working out schemes for elementary school lersonr.As the Liverpool Training Sihoot of Cookery has been largely instrumental in obtaining the Government grant, we will give details of the plans which have been adopted in several Voluntary schools, and which served as proofs to the Lords of the Privy Council on Education of the feasibility of the oookery echeme.\t*\t.\t\u201e\t.- The time allowed by the Government for this subject is forty hours\u2014that is divided into twenty lessens of two hours esch, which, taken once a week, can be included in a school half-year.Two hours uives time for the completion of the dishes cooked, and for cleaning and putting away the utensils used, which lust ia a very important pyt of the lesson.A practice class of children doing all the cookery tbemselves should not consist of more than twelve girls, if possible, and for such a class a vrry moderate-sized class room affords ample accommodation, the tables being formed of boards placed on trestles or across the backs of derks.Tho Uenty lessons comprise tho ele-mintary knowledge of the nat ro and preparation of the various classes of fooo\u2014as vegetables, meat, fi*h, soup?, puddings, and bread\u2014and invalid cookery.They ore alternately demon-Etraticn and practi:e lesïons: i.e.at one lesson the explanation is given of the nature and use of one class of food, and tho various ways of cooking it, while the children look on and see the work done; at tho next lesson the children themselves cook tho food.For this lattar purpcio they are divided into three sets, each eet of four working together.Each girl is provided with a printed recipe of what she is to cook, and the«o recipes aro taken home, to bo put into a book, with notes of the theory taught.The recipes are of dishes suitable to the varying means of working men, such as cottsgo pie, haricot beans, scrap-bread pudding, Exeter stew, poor man\u2019s goose, and many others combining economy and paint-ableneas.One or two, given in full, will s'.rve to show the average cost of each.UBGWN LENTIL SOUP.d.ia lb.Drown LsntiU.1\tCarrot, 4 cloves 1 *a oz.dripping.1 *a 2\tquarts water, small bunch *weet herbs, 3\tonions, pepper and salt totacte.1 Wash the lentils well in several waters ;

and a teacher residing in tome convenient centre esn undertake ten neighboring school?a week, and complete the course of twenty lessons m each school within tho half year.To make sure of satisfying tfce requirements of H.M.\u2019s Inspectors, it is most imporUnt that school managers should in future take care to engage tho services of a teacher well trained in the art of teaching cookery to children, and holding a diploma from seme efficient school of cookery.Thus wo see that the expenses consist of the primary ontlay for stove and utensils [which will not recur], and tho recurring cost of fool and instruction.Against this outlay we have three sources of income\u2014the children\u2019s pence, the sale of food, and tho Government grant.In addition to those I will quote tho opinion and experience of tho manager of a large Reman Catbolio school, who, at a meeting of the delegates of the Northern Union, held in Liverpool, speaking of the introduction of cookery into his schools, said\u2014 \" I wculd hardly hesitate to say that not only will a class of cookery in elementary schoclt pay itself, but will even become a pecuniary advantage, and for this reason\u2014 parents look with much favor upon tho teaching of cookery ; and whereas it is toq often tho case that they withdraw their children from school tbe moment they are freo to do so, and so prevent a school from receiving a grant by their being present and passing an examination,! can say from experience that my class of cookery has been tho means of retaining at school several children who would otherwise liave left, and for each of them I expect a substantial grant.I have also observed that since the introduction of this subject the children who constitute this das* attend much more regularly.I am convinced that nothing ia better calculated to lessen the rooted prejudice which many parent# have against education.\" Considering tho nâturo and extent of the work that baa been accomplished by the schools of cookery, it leem* by no means too much to expect that liberal and efficient aid should be accorded to them, and that they should bo regarded aa important institutions in the cause of social progress.QUESTIONS & ANSWERS.I Wi invtU MUMtioiH on aUytoiMt wb}*cUof intrrnt, tv ithith ut *KaU do vur best tv vUtum Correct uneven.Cvmtytrudsnte are invited tv tend in re.vtiee tv t/uetlivue ukuh at e nut tatie/acturily aneurered.Ihie muet nut be used ae un advertUinj column or at an (injulry bureau /or mature not oj public mterttl.l KKMfDY FOR BOUND KUOULDICKS.fiiu.\u2014i'lesiu lufvnu wo llirouslitbu Weekly IV.hue» wtiai 1» *ootl fur u buinii-back uuj rouud slioutSer».I \u2022w rigliucu >v»«olil.1 would like to kuow if I can xvt anything tueur* It f\tCamukiuuk.Dr.Fultuu of UiucUy,kludljr furulsUM 1I10 following!
