ir you can prove an alibi In tho courts,
and yon ciui prove beyond doubt that
jou were in some particular place at the
tlmo you were charged with doing or
saying something In quite another place
you gain the victory, and Infidelity has
tried to prove an alibi by contending
that evunts and circumstances In the
BllileiwrtlHs! to certain tlmesmust have
taken placu at some other time, if they
took place at all, Dut this book's chro
nology has never iieeu caught at futilt
It has lieou proved that when the lie
brews went Into Ugypt there weio only
so veil ty ot tliuin, and that when thoy
came out there wen II, 000, 0(K or them.
"Now," says Infidelity, with a guffaw
that It cannot suppress, "what an ah
surdity! They wont down Into Egypt
seventy and came out ll.000.000. That Is
a ralKohood on the race of it. Nations
do not increaao in that ratio.' Dut, my

fnun seventy persons to ll.UOO.OOO, ror It
is uo more, hut rather less, than the or

Nothing Impresses me in this chrono
logical review more than the fact that
the regiments or year are Is'tter and
better regiments as the trwps move on
I thank (bid that you ami I weru njl
bom any sooner than we were Ixirn
iluw could we have endured the tll'iintcr
or Is'iug iHirn lu the Eighteenth or Hev
euuijuth or Bixtecnth century? (Dad am
1 that we are in the regiment now kim
ing the reviewing stand, and that our
children will pass the stand luastill bet
ter regiment. Uod did not build thia
world tor a slaughter house or a deu ol i
infamy.
A gissl deal or cleaning house will bo'
necessary before this world becomes as
clean and sweet as it ought to lie, but
the Orisons, and the scrubbing brnsho-. '
and the upholsterers and plumbers aro
aln.idy busy, and when the world getB
fixed up, iw It will bo. ir Adam nnd Cvo
ever visit it, as I expect thoy will, thoy
will soy to each other, "Well, this beats
parodise when we lived tlioro. and tho
peors and the plums ure better than wo
plucked troin tho first trees, uod tho
wardrols's are more complete, and the
climate Is better."
Since I settled In my own mind tho
tact that Ond was stronger than tho
devil I have nover lost faith in the
euiporodisotion of thin planet. With the
exception of a rotrogrebsion in tho Dark
Ages, the movement of tho world has
been ou and ou, and up aud up, nnd 1
have two jubilant hosannns ouo for
the closing year and the other for tho
now year i
ItraOTUAUTY. I
Dut tho other thought coming out of
this subject is that Dibllcal chronology,
and indeed all chronology, is urging tho
world to more punctuality and immedi
uteuitss. What on unsatisfactory and in
deliuile thing it muni hove been for two
buxliicsn men in the tlmo of Ahaz to
make an appointment, saying. "Wo will
settle tlmt business matter tomorrow
when tho shadow on the dial of Ahar.
reaches the tenth step from the top," or
"I will meet you in the street called
(Straight lu Damascus In the time of the
new iuimiii," or when asked in a court
room what time an occurrence took
placu should answer, "It was during
the time of the latter ruin." or "It was m
the tilue of the third crowing or tho
barnyard!"
You aud I remember when ministers
or the (lospel In tho country, giving out
u notice of un evening sendee, instead of
saying at 0 or 7 or b o'clock, would say,
"The service will begin at early candid
light." Thank Uod for chionological
achievements which have ushered in cal
ouilars aud almanacs aud clocks aud
watches, and ot so cheap a rote all may
possess them! Chronology, beginning
by appreciating tho value of years ami
the value ol days, bus kept ou until it
cries out, "Mail, immertal: wuuiuu, lin
mortul, look out tor that minute; look
out for tlmt secoud!"
We tolk o great deol obout tho vnluo
of time, but will nover fully appieclate
Its value until the last fragment of it has
passed out of our possession forever
The greatest fraud a man can commit U
to rob another of his tlmo. Hear It, yo
laggards aud ropeutt All the fingers of
chronology point to punctuality ns one
of the graces. Tho minister or tho lec
turer or business man who comes to his
place ten minutes after tho appointed
time commits a crime the enormity of
which can only bo estimated by multi
plying tho uumber of poraous present by
teu. It the engagement be made with
five Mraona, he has stolen fifty minutes,
for he Is ten minutes too late, aud ho lias
robbed each or the live persons ot ten
minutes apiece, aud teu times five are
Ufty
D there bo 600 persous present and ho
bo teu minutes too late, he bus commit
tod a robbery of 6,000 minutes, for ten
time 600 nrv 6,000, ami 6.000 minutes aro
eighty-three hours, which make more
than three days. Tho thief of dry goods,
the thlet of bank bills, U not hulr so bad
aa the thief or time.

Dut do not let us get an imprcssto
from chronology that because tho yea
of timo huvo been so long In proccssii
thoy aro to go on forever. iMnttcr is no
eternal. Nb, riot If you watch half
day, or a wholo day, or two days, ns
once did. to hco a militnry proccssioi
you remember tho last brigiulo, and tl.
lust regiment, nnd the last company final
ly passed on, nnd as we roso to go wi
said to each other, "It is all over."
Bo this mighty procession or earthly
years will terminate. Just when I have
no power to prognosticate, but scieuco
confirms the Dlhle prophecy that the
earth cannot always last. Indeed thert
has been a fatality of worlds. Tho moon
is merely tho corpso of what it onco was
and scientists havo again and again gone
up in their observatories to attend the
deathbed of dying worlds und have seen
them cremuted. So I am certain, both
from the Word of Uod and science that
the world's chronology will sooner oi
later como to its lust chapter.
Tho dual century will arrive nnd pas
on, aud then will como tho final decade
anil then the final year, and thu dim,
month, and tho final day. Tho last spring
will swing its censor of npplo blossoms
nnd tho last winter bank itu snows. The
last sunset will burn liko Moscow 'ind
tho Inst morning ludloto tho hills. The
clocks will strike their lost hour, und the
watches will tick their last second. No
incendiaries will bo needed to run hither
and you with torches to s.t tho world
ou tire. I

Tho whole answer to tho tiuestiou, Is
the health of tho nvcrago young woman
equal to the successful prosecution of
the work of a college course? may bo

Tho tast duty of tho college authorities
is to give just as careful a physical ex
amination for original eutr.inie as their
examination lulu tho applicant's scholar
ly proficiency, and tlieir next duty, tho
appllcnut having been admitted, is to see
that her advancement Is symmetrical
and that she is led across the threshold
or mature womnnhood as well equipped
