SCIENCE A1'D DEITY.
That there should be any sup
posible conflict between the belief
in the existence of an intelligent
power that hoias me universe in
the regularity of its mighty sweep
through space, and science, that
can really only interpret a few of
the most apparent laws of that
power, is strange to conceive, yet
discussion, pro and con, upon that
subject continues. The Christian
Union savs that natural theo'oav
has attempted to prove too much,
and therefore has brought itself
under the suspicion of being
unable to prove anything. Science
is the recognition of an intellectual
order in the universe. If there
were no such order there could be
no science. This, true in theoretic
science, is still more evidently true
in what we call practical science.
"What is our civilization but the
discovery of ends and objects and
purposes before unsuspected? We
have made nothing; we have
simply found what existed. We
have not created steam ; we have
imply discovered in steam a latent
force, discovered its end and
purpose, and set it to that for
which it was made. Edison did
not put illumination in electricity;
he found it there and showed us

Photography is beng utilized
::i various ways, but the latest is
by an Iowa constable who turned
his amateur skill in the art to
account in taking a through back
window a drinking scene' behind
a druggists prescription case, and
presenting the photograph in
evidence in a trial for violation o
the prohibitory law.
New York now has a law that
abolishes hard labor and ail manu
facturing, in the prisons and
reformatories in that state. That
will give a trial to the plan of
niaintaiying convicts without labor
and thus avoid the unfair competi
tion that the convict work brings
against honest labor.
As a cure for a disease that is
alarmingly prevalent, and generally
accepted to be incurable drunk
eness it is said that the Russian
physician and publicist rortugaloff
declares that strvchnine in sub
cutaneous injections is an
immediate and infallible remedy.
The craving of the inebriate for
drink is changed into positive
aversion in a day, and after a
treatment of eight or ten days the
patient may be discharged. Even
should the appetite return months
after.vard, the (irst attempt, te
res am e drinking will produce such
painful and nauseating sensations
that the person will turn away
from the liquor in disgust. The
strvchnine is administered by
dissolving one grain in two
hundred drops of water, and in
jecting rive drops of the soluti"n
every twenty-four hours. Dr.
Portugaloft" recommends the estab
lishment of inebriate disi jnsaries
in connection with police stations.

Since the death of Ernest Ilacc'iel
in Germany and Professor Clifford
in England, there is not a well ed
ucated scientific atheist in the
world. There are agnostics, men

kind of a power this is that lies be
hind nature; but net an intelligent,
well-educated student of science,
of public repute who doubts the
theism of Herbert Spencer and
the theism of Paul, that behind
nature there is an eternal Power
and an eternal Godhead ; that we
stand forever in the presence of an
Infinite and Eternal Energy from
which all things proceed. And it
