t KAIIILnu THOrUHTH BT UIO. 1-orVKICillTKU. Penned hy a layman la the ttpr moiucnts of bu.-y career and dedi cated to a better understanding of life anl IU varU-d opportunities. A doctor finds it comparatively pleasant ami very eay to write a nauseating ireMcription, for to the pat ion t alone belong the distress and digu-.t at swallowing it. So it U a ttlmple matter to ait here In my arm elixir ar.d scrawl a moral prencription for thocj weak and failing ones who find thetinelve lucking in (root! In nufiiee over their fellowa. Hut the likem-tM to the dictor end here, for tli writer and the reader are both loterewtt-d in the remedy. The pny Hlcl iti-putieut writea it down, then, in one word, a comouud: "Self-con-mt." Such a elcarly dctlncd remedy. Al moit aa aimple aa bathing In the l'txil of Siloum for blindness, or in the Jordan for leproay. In that coin p ind word, however, Ilea an Infinitude--of in we;; juat- w iiiiiu tlte lifeleaa coal liea dormant the fiwiif of pre-hiatoriu aunahine,or within the aparkling water, the energy of steam; or witliiu the.aumroer icephyra, the murveloua disruptive foree of eleo tricity. To reloaae the power of of each, proper envirionment la need ed To aet free might which lurka within eel! -conquest, the suitable en vironment is a humnn heart; and that heart, yours. One la tempted to Indulge lu theatilted phraseology ol the quack-medicine purveyor and atyle this remedy a panacea. It la a heart tonic mj valuable and ao lack ing In harmful reactions that it can. not be abused by (no much use, mo unaffected by latitude that ita eurea are equally apparent in the anow hut of the Laplander and under the palm thatched homo of the Carili; ao adapt ive that both aexea, the old ami the young, the mighty and the humble, the well-fed and the hungry, the wise and the foolish, the aaint and the sinner all derive benefit from a free use of (his one unfailing remedy. With human beings, unlike the animals, obedience to the Instinct, Invariably leada astray, and exposes our natures to the virus of pride, selfishness, gluttony and sensuality. W'hilo these poisons are creeping through 1 our veins, and doing to death, aa it were, the warriors for good, the white, corpuscles of our moral blood we have no power. We may for awhile by our fair-appearing exterior deceive our neighbors as to our heart's condition; we may even throw convenient dust in our own spiritual eyes, but when some su preme moment of life comes then shall we fail, and ignomlnioualy. Just when failure la most serlons; the decayed inast snaps in a gale, the bridge yields at the moment that a human freight la trust lug to it. Reforms and churches one needs must mention both, since they are not synonyms are made up of In dividuals and the altitude or degra dation of those individuals la the measure of the Kwer of both the re form and the church. No wild yield er to lust is a gain to the member ship of the age-of-consent reform; no self seeker is of advantago to the bands of the wretched who are wait ing for their rights; no church mem ber who with one hand grinds the face of the poor, and with tho other applies the moral vaseline of a gener ous contribution to soup kitchens and missions, is of value to the church that throws its aimple, trusting, and atatistlcally-anxlous arms around him. Tho trite old illustration ol water being unable to rise alajve it level, and the chain beiug no strong cr than its weakst link, apply here, Let us not be deceived. It is charac ter that tells in this world and no character except that of the animate comes from yielding unquestioning obedience to our Instincts. On our human side we have the powers of reason, of aspiration, of develop ment, of growth . But so long as we grovel in mere physical impulses, w hether they be of acquisition, of In dolence, or of hedonism jleasur seeking of every kind we turn our backs upon every thing that la grand In human nature and remain on the level with the monkey, or the sloth, or the barn-yard fowl. In truth w are worse than they because our in st i nets are given us to la) placed un der our feet and used as stepping atones to iower. Instead of serving as mere run-ways to mire. The way to possess power without is to have it within. The way to la strong in sorties upon tho foes out side our walla, Is to bo sure of tin death of traitors Within. "But it is hard to deny and deny and still again deny oneself", says a quer ulous voice. Of course it is. So is it harder to liurht than to liend supinely to the blow; ao is it harder to force our way against the torrent than to yield to its onrush and perish; so I it harder to climb a steep ascent than to slide down it a corpse on the roar Ing crest of an avalanche. Yet who that claim kinship to manhood would cease struggling in these physical di rect ions, so long as a spark of life re umlnuil. Tli feeble pen that is fol lowed by ao many eyes, halts ami hesitates here, and qutwtiona wheth-' tr tbia may ml all be too serious and Im arranonic for a newspaper column. The answer comes: "Mo, for the press is called to be a power." And the negative is confirmed by a grow ing sound thar smites tit psyehle ear, a ruuruier that swells into an In finite agony of vain regrets; It W the voice of all, as one, -w hose brightest jrospecls have vanished, whose pow- era for good have been overcome by yielding to unholy ambition, to the mere making of wealth, to the kill ing of time, to the lowering of the human standard till it become a parody and caricature of all that 1 disgusting in the animal. These are they whose bod lea conquered their souls and permitted no deeds of val ue to our race. By their vain breath ings, by their chained and manacled bodice, by their ahrivelled souls, by their animalism, the sign la here erected, "The secret of power la Self-conquest." All sincere battling with self U lt some degree, self-conquest. The vic tory of one day renders more sure the basis of operations for the next. So vast becomes the growing power over self, that before it the trend ol heredity gKs down defeated, until out of the tilth comes firth a crealun aa pure aa the water lily. If by bat tling you gain the mastery of your instincts, you need uo longer yearn for power. You will have it. You need not blazon it from the house. toji,'for tfioae "who' "meeT "you" wTd' know you have it.

WHERE OLD PIANOS GO. Mm Thasa, It Is Said. rtad a Market la tlia Uuakar CUj. "What bueonie of old pianos?" was the question pat to a large New York manufacturer the other day. "Well," was tho rather unexpected reply, "the moat of ours go to Phil adelphia." The nnuiufiicUirea-eould not explain this fact exactly to bis own satisfaction. He thought per haps it was because so many persons owned homes in Philadelphia) or possibly boeause the good poopla of the Quaker town are much given to attending concerts and love tnusio more than New Yorkers. "There ought to be several hun dred thousand old square pianos atowed away nmnv,H"i in the United States." enid a uiannfacturnr In ejKJaking of tho subject "I have been in the business 20 years, und personally have seen but tbntu of them out into kindling woo. I. It is indeed a i are occurrence that one of these nmaaive old rosowoxl affairs meets with such an nn worthy fate. "A biography of a good piano ia sometimes very interesting. They generally start off in liw gnyly, hav ing the most conspicuous position in iiio pitrlora" of 'Th'O' weuiliiy' aia'l re ceiving courtoona treatment. Thirty years ago it good square piano was an objoct of much greatur impor tance and commanded vastly more rospoct than any piano nowadays. This is still 1 1 bo soon whon we go to remove an old piano to exchange it for a now ono. It is purely a mut ter of mercantile interest to us, but not bo with t'uo owners. I have soon old folks who had botiilit a piano in tlm days of their l-oneymoon fairly lvorcuiiio when they s.jw tho famil iar o'd instrument, which had been with t'.iem through il.iys of joy and sorrow, hustled cut of tlio house by irreverent hands nrd convoyed to tho warehouse. It is the custom for piano firms now to take away the old instruments and allow a fair price for them, deducting tho amount from tho price of the new ono. It ia nn absolute, loss to us, for we hnvo tho greatest difficulty in disposing of theso landmarks which have seen hotter days. "A great majority of theso old pianos find their way to tho homes of comparatively poor iieopla They may bo bought for a more song. Thero is a class of men who make a living by disposing of those old pianos. A aocondhand dealer drop ped in here the other day and said he had just bought six for $50. Some firms are almost willing to puy for having thorn taken away. "Those old pianos aro by no means worn out after going through throo or even four hands. New strings and new hammers aro put in, and the old instrument is tinkered 'up, so thatit will oftentimes have a bet tor tone than the cheap piano of to day. City honrding houses, where the only objoct is to have an instru ment 'capable of omitting noiso, are extensive harboring jilaoos for these old 'has boons.' Many are shipped to tho west and to country towns. A number find their way to muso. nms, where thoy aro exhibited na tho piano on which Ooorge Wash ington was wont to play. Through out New England, Ohio and in Now York city I have soon them used as tables for kitchen purposes, the works in many oases being removed to allow a place for stowing away jars of fruit Many aro disposed of at nuothins, too, and somo very good bargains are to be secured in that way." New York'Timos. THEY BURY THEIR SICK. 4 thm Shacking Cuituin of a Malay Trllis Called tba A beta. Thore is a ghastly horror in the mere mention of the fact that n hu man boing has boon buried nlivo, and yet, shocking as it is, there is a tribo on ono of the Philippine islands known ns the Ahetas who have tho cruel custom of burying the sick be fore death. Unfortunate indeed is a person among tho Ahotns who is afllicted with a serious illness; for ho is almost certain to bo consigned to the gruve alive. As soon as n high fever sots in the patient ia ta ken out of his hut, wrapped iu his old clothes and rudoly deposited in a gravo. But no sooner has tho body been placed in the grave than it be comes at onoo apparent to bis rela tives, according to their traditions, that his death (which should bo more properly tormed mnrder) must bo avenged. Accordingly, tho war riors of tho tribo sally forth with lanoonnd arrows to slay tho ilrst liv ing creaturo thoy encounter whether it be man, woman, child or wild beast. When thus in quest of nn expiatory victim, thoy take tho pre caution of breaking oil young shoots of the shrubs as they pass hy, lonv ing tho broken ends hanging in the direction they are going as a warn ing to travelers and neighbors to shun that path. Even should oun of their own pooplo bo tho first to meet the avengers thoy daro not suffer him to escape. Whether nn Ahqtn is buried nlivo or after death his kinsmen at once assemble and destroy all tho gomls and chattels ho had accumulated during his lifetime, oven breaking his gong in pieces. Tho curse of the tribo would fall tipon any ono who should attempt to make usn of nny articlo left by tho buried person. After the destruction of tho property has taken placo tho hut is filled with fumes of burning dammar or rosin. The guests sit in tho perfumed at mosphere drinking largo drafts of arrack, and also some kind of hpirit which thoy manago to distill from tho juice of nativo fruit. This stim ulant soon does its work, nnd t!iey give vent to their feelings in violent shouts, mingled wit'u thJ howls of tho children, wails of tho women and the hoarse discord of tho pones. A tree is generally planted ne.ir tin1 grave, and at the final ceremony none but naked women aro allowed to bo present ' This la.it f.te is termed tho "Sudah-buang" ami ii nfiios that tho body is thenceforth abandoned to the wilderness and wild leasts. Tho Ahotns will worshrp f or awUy tho trunk ol a distorted tree or a fragment of a rock which has any resemblance til an animal. Tlnu they turn away from these ana think no more about God or worship until they again encounter another strange and fantastical form. Superstition cuts a large figure in their lives. In fact, every race of the Malays, excepting tho Orang Lauts, are governed in the most mi note uffairs of life by signs and omens.

City a Marbla Shafta la tba Sbadowa af Crpraaa Tract. "And why do tho Osmanli prefer Scutari &i m liuiitl pan e to anv oui cr?" "Boeausoit is there tho trumpet of the archangel will bo first hoard. The true believers who lie at Scu tari will first risu ti answer it; next, tho faithful from other jiarts of the earth; after that the Hebrows, and lastly tho giaours who follow other gods." Thus spoke the grave old turban- ed Turk who stood lienoatu a cy press t ree on tho slopes of the world tamed ceiaotoryof the sea of Mar mora. "All know," he went on in calm. judicial accents, "that whon the last duys of tho world are drawing near. tho Osmanli will be driven forth from Stambonl by tho Frank. Then, for a sluice, there will bo trouble nnd turmoil on the earth; nil sons of the faithful will fly up to Scutari as a refuge; there they, tho living and the dead alike, will await the day of judgment." With that, thinking it was a hurt to his dignity to parley longer with a giaour, he gathered his robes about him, saluted majestically, then passed slowly away down one of tho Ioiir, broad avenues leading to tho gates of tho cemetery, leav ing tho stranger to wimder at his pleasure through that forest of tall tombstones standing erect. Tho coup d'o-il is picturesque ia tho extreme. As far as ono can see, tho long slender shafts of marble riso beneath the shadow of tho mas sive cypress tho treo of Allah, the Osmanli call it which points its fin ger to tho sky, while tho luxuriant vegetation of tho east clusters around tho bns-o of the slabs, em phasizing their snowy whiu nessnnd preventing them from being too daz zling to tho eye. Each tomb bears ita own decora tion. A singlo leaflet, tho drooping petuls of a rose, or graceful frond of fern indicate that n female form lies below. A turban or a fez shows that the doad person was a man. Lamps, ostrich eggs, sashes, fringed and colored handkerchiefs of varied hue, all have their own significance; while here and there will bo seen some tall stone, sculptured from ond to end, its ornamentation in high relief, encire'ed by a number of smaller ones, which proves that tho father of a family a man of wealth rests here surrounded by bis wives and children. A curved scimiter shows that a man of war reposes there; un anchor marks the sleeping placo of a sailor; a wand of office proves that tho dead man held somo post of command. So on, till something is learned of nil, even though one tuny not bo able to de cipher the fantaslio Arabic charac ters which tell with more detail the history of tho dead. The terms in which tho Turk ex presses his lamentations are often very pathetic, espiscially when they refer to tho loss of hiswifo or child. Hero is ono, taken from the tomb of a young girl, which effectually combats tho common western delu sion that tho Osmanli believe that women nre 1orn without souls or hope of a future life; "The cold blasts of fate caused tbia nightingale to wing its way to heaven. Thero it has found ita await ed bliss. Zeinab is tho name of her who lios below, and for ber Lribahn, who wrote these lines, offers hum ble petition. Weep not for her, for though dead sho lias become a so journer in the gardens of paradise." St. Paul's. Sha I'alil tlia (irftM-hrn. A lovely story is told of tho broth ers Grimm, tho famous fairy tale writers. ( ne day n weo girl rang tho boll iiiiil n.-ked to seo Mr. Grimm. Whon ushered into his presence, she asked; "You nru the Mr. Grimm wlio writes tho pretty tales?" "Yes, I and my brother." "Anil that of the clever little tai lor who married tho princess?" -.'Yes, certainly." "Well," said tho child, producing the ljook, "it is said there that every ono who doesn't believe it must pay tho thaler. Now, I don't bclic.vo that a princess ever married a tailor. I haven't so much as a thaler, but here is a grosehen, and plei.-e say'l hop i to pay the rest by degrees." Just then Jacob camo in nnd they tried together to convince the lit t la daino that it was only a tale, but sho had the courago of her convictions and nothing could induco her to re. tcive tho money back.
