ANNOUNCEMENT.
We are glad to be able to announce that
in our next issue, and regularly thereafter,
we shall devote one page o/The Friend
to the interests of Education*. This De-

PROFESSION AND PRACTICE.
In a recent number of the- Observer,
Jiriiaeus devotes a column to the career
of David M. Stone, Editor of the A. Y.
Journal of Commerce.
After sketching the editor's young life1*
and his remarkable fidelity to business
through nearly two score years, Dr.
Prime says :
Mr. Stone resides in Brooklyn, and is a raomber
of the Congregational Church of which Dr. Behrends is now and Dr. Scudder was the past ir. His
devotion to religious work is In harmony with
his diligence in business, and his example is as
commendable in the church as in the world. Dr.
Scudder preached more than one thousand sermons during tho eleven years of nis pastorate in
Brooklyn, of which Mr. Stone heard all but three,
and then ho was h tiding a service of his own else,
where. For this indefatigable man is a diligent
student of the Hililu, an i gives lectures on it. expounding book after book of the Holy Scriptures,
going through the life of Christ, the Book of Revelation, etc., to the great editioKtion of the people. Dr. Dehrends has been settled in Brooklyn
heard
for just two years, and Mr. Stone hasalways
every sermon that he has preached, and is
meeting
ready
the
and
weekly prayer
on hand at
to assist if desired.

This is indeed a case of exceptional
faithfulness to sacred relations. We
make this record available to transfer a
few thoughts, which we have been carrying for some time, to the columns of The
Friend.
It is not our plan to exhort to diligence
in business. Of this we think there is
enough. We have no fault to find with
it. The family and the causes of education, philanthropy and religion must be
sustained. What we contemplate, is to
exhort to greater fidelity in church relations. Our words, as the reader will
perceive, are more particularly directed
to church members. One of the things
which often has puzzled us has been the
absence from church on Sunday, when
there was no absence from the store or

the office on Saturday or Monday. We
do not question that the Sunday case of
absence was caused by some ailment.
But it is a somewhat strange phenomenon, that the ailment should come just
on Sunday and come so often on Sunday.
"Hut," it is said, "business must be
attended to." So it must. What the
Ajiostle enjoins is however equally binding: "Not forsaking the assembling of
ourselvs together, as the manner of
some is."
It is clear from Mr. Stone's record,
that he attends to his religious duties
with the same conscientious fidelity
which he observes to his Journal of Commerce relations.
We may in this connect inn suggest,
that in attending lioth morning and
evening services, there remains the entire afternoon for rest.
There are church members who do not
seem to have the sense of obligation
which the rd Uion imposes. To be ii
member of a church and have one's name
on the roll is a sacred relation and a
BOtomn responsibility. Fidelity, manifested in regular attendance at the meetings, will rotlect honor not only on the
one thus faithful, hut on the whole
church of which th.it one is a member,
while keejMiig aloof from the church and
showing Indifference to its work and
growth, the name however remaining on
the membership list, will reflect dishonor not only on thai one member but
on the entire body.
We here have reference to persons who
are regularly absent from the services
of the church to which they belong.
This absence is caused by reasons, which
we will not now stop to record. Of
course we have not in mind the aged or
any others who would attend if they
could. But we refer to those who can
and ought to, but who do not frequent
the house of God. And we do not hesitate to say, that if these persons should
come to die, the condition of things being as we have stated it, it would be a
matter of painful embarrassment to officiate at their obsequies. Such a thing
however litis happened. And tra may
Imagine an exchange of questions and
answers carried on by A and B, consistent christians, with reference to the departed, somewhat of this nature :

B. Yes.

B. Yes, for I remember that sometime ago, looking into the church man-

ual, I saw his (or her) name in the membership list.
We turn from the shadow to the sunshine. We have before us a body of men
and women in this community of the
same spirit with David M. Stone. They
have before them the same high ideal of
sincere and consecrated effort.
They
have put their hands to the plough and
are determined not to look back. They
are on the way to Zion with their faces
thitherward. Their presence is familiar
to us, for they ever greet us on Sunday;
their voices we hear at the prayer-meeting
and we meet them in united work for
the Master. They are never weary in
well-doing. Were any of them to tako
up their residence elsewhere they would
at once transfer their church relations
and in a short time make their influence
felt in every good work. For such men
and women we thank God. They are
not afraid of the battle, for << far down
the future they hear the smiting of victorious shields and tho shoutings of a
great multitude." Their eyes sparkle
and their faces glow with the enthusiasm
of earnest endeavor. Their motto is onward and upward,' and it will come
about that the eternal gates will open

PURE BEER AND WINES.
It is too bad ! Whenever the organs of
the drink-curse wish to completely annihilate "temperance fanatics" they triumphantly bring forward their beer argument :
Beer is pure, healthy, unintoxicating, and, could it be brought into
general use would alxilish the consumption of stronger liquors"—four simonpure, unadulterated falsehoods compressed into a single sentence! But now
comes a circular, so says the San Francisco dhronioh', published in the interest
of the hop-growers, which not only
states, but proves its statement, that the
brewers have largely abandoned the use
of hops in making beer, and have
substituted a villainous compound of
poisonous drugs, simply because the
drugs are cheaper than hops! And
what remedy does the wise Chronicle
propose? Why that beer be abandoned,
anil that pure(?) California wine be substituted. But who will guarantee the
purity of California wine ? Who will
stand guard over the guileless California
Granger, and the immaculate San Francisco wholesaler, and the spotless and
incorruptible Honolulu importer, and
tho money-making retailer ? O wise temperance reformer, your bottle of pure
California wine is too strong a draft on
our little faith in the honesty of moneyloving liquor dealers I

Congress of the Established Church.
One of the noted papers read before it
wits by Dr. Karl Stark/, on"The Fight
against Drunkenness." We quote from
an article reviewing this paper, by Rev.
E. D. Eaton, jiuhlished in The Advance:

On the basis of the Internal Revenue returns
the Empire, and statistics of German pliysiuinns
mid other scientific investigators, the author prooeeds to Uy before his German audience the aptailing facts as to the extent and consequences of
iijnor drinking in tlieir country. The Gorman
government statistics place the annual consumption of ardent spirits, brandy and the like, at ten
quarts per capita for the entire population, which.
Dr. Stark remarks, is manifestly far too low an
estimate ; but even this is three times as BMSI as
the amount consumed in Norway, nearly three
tiims what is consumed in France (although Dr.
Stark says that the Qamaana pharisaically despise
the French for their addiction to strong drink,
and attribute in part to this their degeneration
and lifeat in war), more than twice the brandy
con sumption of Austria, nearly twice that of Great
Britain, and nenrlif ttrire the total titnannt of urdtol
drank in tile I'triterl Strife*. 11l ISSI-'L', the
K/iiril.i
outlay for brandies in Prussia amounted to the immense sum of 2iU,O'IU m irks, while thedirect tans
of the states were but IfiO.IXjO marks. Besides
this, there is of course an enormous oonaiiiii|itioii
of beer, aggregating in Thuriugii 124 quarts annually iter capita', in Saxony 1211 quarts; in Wurtemberg ISO quarts; in Bavaria 233 quarts. In
some districts the br.unties are actually displacing
the lighter drinks, as in Als ice and Lorraine,
where in IH7O, six times as much wine as brandy
was sold, but io IS7SI I he sale of brandy a as almost
equal to that of wine. Director Stark estimates
that there tiro in Germany to-day botweeu 300.H00

mind you, but continued drunkards [Snnt'er).
The results of all this are not other than wu

must be added to this list of yearly victims of
drink in Prussia alone. The numberof persons
tit for military duty sinks perceptibly in those districts where ardent spirits are most largely consumed. It is'stated as the result of the investigations of Haer, that of grave crimes in Germany
against person and life, U3 per cent to 77 per oeut
are committed when in a condil ion of drunkenness.
When persons beoome so poor that they must
be aided by the state, as high as SO to'JO percentof
the cases are found to bo due to iuteiuperance.
In a nue provinces the number of saloons stands in
almost direct ratio to the number of inaauo ia
the census. In Prussia it haa been established
that illiteracy and poverty prevail where there is
the most drinking, and that is true not alone of
Prussia. One-fourth of all thee ises of insanity,
as high as 1G per cent of the suicidas, nearly th:ee

It was a pleasant suprise to the congregation on Sunday morning, May 3rd,
to find Rev. E. C. Oggel of the Bethel
Union Church in the pulpit, on exchange

with the pastor. The sermon was helpful and stimulating. The series of Sunday Evening Lectures to Young Men
were concluded May 17th; the attendance
of the class for whom they were prepared has been gratifying.
Sunday evening May 24th, it was a
pleasure to extend the hospitalities of the
Church to Geo. W. Dc Long Post, and
their finely-drilled and noble-looking escort the Honolulu Rifles.
The music
on that occasion was especially fine. Mr.
Turner's rendering of his solo in Biiumbach's Te Deum, and the quartette
"Rest, Soldier, Rest," and the duet by
Mrs. 1 lan ford and Mrs. Brown, were all
exquisitely rendered.
On Sunday evening May 31st, we had

THEPEW.
At a recent meeting of the Boston
Congregational Club, Itev. .Mr. Moynton
read a blight paper on The Pew. Among
other good things, The Congregational is/
reports him as saying :
"It is not so unusual a thing for the
pulpit to address the pew upon its shortcomings. It is, however, ordinarily un-

dertaken under certain limitations which
are wanting here. The |>ulj)it is said
sometimes to be unduly cautious because
of Its dependence on the pews. If it
opens its mouth too widely in public,
that useful receptacle may not be sufficiently well filled in private.

you are accustomed to do on Sundays,
That's No. 41), where my wife's children
sit with their father.' And when I suggest a failure, 'That's No. 48 or oil,
where the other man sits, lie ought to
hear it.'
"The question is a.s to the relation of
the pew to the pulpit I remember
some years ago to have addressed a circular-letter to theabsent members of the
church of which I was the pastor, Inquiring among other things, What church
are you regularly attending, and what
tire your relations to that church ? To
which one good sister made answer that

but her relations were mostly Methodists.

that sense, though it is pi wallill.) that

And that man—it must be Unit he sits

Herald, or (i/o/ie, is not content with the
dampness that the week's dews have left
upon them, but deliberately soaks his
kindlings before he brings them to the
sacred fire—and it's harder to kindle
than Klijah't- altar was on ('annol, for
that wtis soaked at least with good pare
water. But, most of all, because it includes all the rest, the pulpit needs a
prayerful bearing In the pew.
<< Hut the pew is also a place for hospitality. Let him that heareth say come I
—not him that speelteth. When the
other servants go out into the highways
and hedges to constrain them to come
in, the chief cook must stay at home
and see that the dinner is kept hot. Put
your best men at the doors. At the
hour of worship the deacons should not
belong to the church invisible. Your
Ushers should be your finest gentlemen,
and it should not be necessary for them
to go up the aisle with an anxious look,
as though it were a very delicate matter
to find a place where it would be safe to
locate a guest. James ii : 1-5 would be
a good motto to place over a diagram of
church pews in the vestibule. When
Charles bttiiib was asked why he did not
go to church, he answered, 'I'udor
refaf.' You may take it in either language. Too often it is not modesty,
but the pew door which forbids. He
who sat over against the treasury sits
over against the pew still.
The pew is also a place for harnessing. < What do they do when they install a minister,' said a youthful scion,
do they put him in a stall and feed
Not a bit,' said the father,
him ?'
'they harness him to the church and expect him to haul it alone.' Paul writes,
Ye are our ejiistle,' his only letter to
the world. The Church has been divided
into militant, triumphant and termagant,
but the mere church absorbent is bad
enough. The water-wheel gives power,
but it does not spin or weave. 'Is the
sermon all done." asked one pew of
another.
No, it's all said, it's got to be
dune yet,' was the answer. We are the
body of Christ and members in particular. If His life be in us all and always,
We shall move together at His will."

"The pew doesn't serve its purpose
unless it Is occupied; nay,-not unless it
is occupied with regularity. Saul was
greatly annoyed, on a certain occasion,
because David's place was empty, though
the point he wanted to make with him
was not exactly in the line of preaching.
Tlie pulpit doesn't want an admiring
pew, nor a patronising pew. It does
not want to be set up to be worshiped,
nor set down to be patted on the back.
It is not afraid of a critical pew—l mean
in the only worthy sense—a discriminating pew.
But the pulpit does want a sympathetic hearing in the pew. There is an

TH E FRIEND.

June, 1885.

CAPTIN
BRAY.
The coming and going of the Morning
Star, does not come particularly within
our province. Hut the coming and going
of Captain Isaiah Hray does ; for, was
he not our very first General Secretary,
though a temporary onet And was he
not, while in the United States, fully
authorized, as our delegate at large, to
represent us, as an Association, in tho
various Y. If. C. A. gatherings, which
he might attend ? Yes, both of these
things are true, and though little may
have been said, during bis recent stay
among us, to show our real appreciation
of these peat valuable services, yet wo
have not forgotten tltcm by any means.
Indeed, we believe if he could have remained with us, as (ieneral Secretary,
instead of going to the States, our Association would to-day be in a stronger
condition than it ta. Hut he had a
larger duty to perform—that of raising
funds for the new Morning Star. His
heart was in the idea of getting a steamer
for missionary purposes, and so his way
heetiiiie clear to leave us. And how
successful he was in the accomplishment
of his purpose is shown by the new vessel that has just gone from us on its
annual mission. Hut he was successful
in another direction also, as is shown by
the well attested and enduring love of
thousands of children throughout the
United States, in whose hearts ho has
won for himself a place.
As a delegate at large, he spoke for us,
and alKitit our work, more than once.
At the State Conference of Massachusetts,
the opportunity was courteously extended to him of taking all the time he
wanted, in which to speak ot our work,
while, to the other Delegates, was given
but a limited time for reports. He
said, Every one seemed quite surprised to learn how established we had
become. They could hardly grasp tho
idea of the existence of a $20,000 Association building in the midst of the Pacific ocean." At the same Conference
referred to above, when they were raising funds for State work, and when a
little lull came, so that pledges were
made slowly, Captain Hray called out,
For the Honolulu Association $25,"
whereupon there was a perfect storm of
applause, and from the novel fact of
Honolulu's Association, the Association almost from the very districts of
Heathendom assisting in the home work,
there went forth a new enthusiasm,
and subscriptions came In with a fresh
and vigorous nipidity. We would not
speak of this other than as an acknowledgement of our appreciation of the
man, who so ably and faithfully represented us as our Delegate abroad.
And again we cannot close our expression about him, without >3aylng that
his presence among us, for the few
weeks of his recent stay, has been an
encouragement to us. He dropped into
his old habit of earnestly taking hold,
and giving us the helping hand.
Should the time come, when, for any

for him to give
up his charge of the Morning Star, we
believe he would make some Association
a most admirable general secretary. To
anticipate such an event as this is like
crossing bridges before getting to
them." Hut in thought of its possibility, we cannot forego our natural
question: Who could take his place in the

The managers of skating rinks in
New York State have formed an association for mutual protection. At their
second meeting In New York City, lateThe
ly, one of the members said,
ministers and the papers have been
pretty hard on us lately, and we've got
to do something." Uut when they tried
to do something, they found they could
not agree on a single something. A resolution against keeping the rinks open
on Sunday, and another against permitting skate races by women and girls,
were Ixith voted down, after excited
discussion, and a noisy protest against
dictation from the board of managers, as
to tho conduct of the rinks. It became
clear that ■ the most objectional features
of this new craze were the most popular with the mass of its patrons, and
brought in the largest share of the income ', and that those managers who
were for "elevating roller skating, making the character of the rinks above
suspicion or reproach," and "cultivating
taste, homely manners and a genteel
gait," had undertaken a hard task.

TRAMPS IN THE TROPICS.
From The Occident we clip the following in regard to Rev. R. Mackenzie's
lecture upon his Hawaiian trip:
We know but little of the Island world to the
west ol us. The time is near when we must know
much more. It is the scene of the next conflicts
and conquests of the hungry Saxon. The Hawaiian
kingdom is the commercial and political portal to
thai world.
The romance of Geology ban loved to consider
tin' Hawaiian Islami.s either the pioneer peaks of
a continent yet to rise, or the lingering summits
of a continent already Bunk. Probably ttiey tire
neither, but n few irresponsible islands urged up
by volcanic action from the sen bottom, fringed
by coral r**efs of great antiquity. The processes of
earth formation are well seen in tbeHe islands.
The finished island, the cold and empty crater,
still intact, as if the fires were extinguished but
yesterday, and the volcano still in full action.
The first inhabitant ■ are supposed to have arrived ill the islands about the second century of
our era, and were the vanguard of a race that .eft
the cradle of mankind at about the time Abraham
was loading a greater race to the west. The natives
are a stalwart, benevolent, happy people, much
given to hospitality and superstition. By reason
-if their own vices and early contact with the
worst vices of our civiltz nio.i, they rapidly decreased in number, until from 300,000 they are
ivduoed to 40.000, and are disappearing at the rate
of 4,000 in every six years.
The natural scenery is surpassingly attractive—

mountains among the loftiest in the world, val-

leys the most beautiful, a sea varied in all the
colors of the rainbow, and broad fields covering

tho heaviest harvests of sugar cine.
Missionary work shu.vs specimens of greatest
success. Every valley has its little ohurch.

The missionaries led the people
into the Kingdom of G>>d not only, but against all
the diplomatic scheming of contending nations,
they led the people tn political Independence .'md
to the complete pussessiun of their own government, a unique result in the history of our race.
The trip to the islands is made under every
comfort that the invention and application of
science can produce, and whereas they cannot
chain tin aen, allay the atom, or prevent eea-aickCompany can furnish every

opportunity for overcoming the discomforts of
these. It is a holiday trip in a genial climate,
among a generous people and gorgeous scenery.

THE "WASTED" SERMON.

hoping against hope that the storm might

and sighed wearily as be took up the sermon he had just been reading over.
|a it not bard f" lie said to his wife,
who was sitting in her low chair before
Hie open grate; "even the weather
seems to have entered into league with
everythingelse to defeat my hopes. This
is the last Sunday before communion, and
I spent so much labor on these two sermons, thinking that surely some good
would come of them ; but only two of
those whom I had especially in my mind
were there to hear this morning's sermon. Brother Henderson's new organ
proved a superior attraction, and they
went to hear it. Now this evening I
cannot hope for an audience, for this
storm looks as if it would break just
about church time. 1 have a great mind
to preach an old sermon, for I have spent
so much labor on this one, and hoped for
so much from it, that I cannot bear to
waste it on a few."
'< It is hard," responded his wifesym-

pathetically, its she came to his side and
but,
looked out at the lowering sky;
dearest, you know Who will choose your
audience this evening. Do you think
it would be better to lay aside the sermon you have prepared especially for
this evening because the weather is so
unpropitious than to preach it in faith
that God will not'let his word return
unto hint void."
The minister shook his head.
"Perhaps you are right," he said;
this is a question I have never been
able to settle .satisfactorily in my own
mind, whether I have any right to reserve a sermon that I have prepared for
a special occasion. 1 will preach this one
to-night, that I may err on the safe side
if I err at all."
Great drops began to patter down as
they left the house, and before they had
gained the shelter of the church the rain
was coming down in torrents. One by
one the faithful few who were always in
their accustomed places, despite wind or
storm, straggled in, and just us the second bell stopped ringing, three of those
over whom the pastor bad yearned came
in, and it was with a hope that his appeal might retich these three hearts at
least that he began the service.
A swift-winged prayer rose upward
from his heart as he rose to preach.
The feeling that his message was directed especially to these three souls which
had not yet found their Savior lent him
unusual energy and power. His text
was the precious invitation, "Come un(o
me all ye that labor and are heavy laden
and 1 will give you rest." His bearers
could not but be impressed by the earnestness and solemnity of his appeal, as
he urged them to accept the gracious invitation and find the rest and peace which
passeth all understanding.
As the notes of the last hymn echoed
through the church the storm seemed to
rage less furiously for a time, and a man
who bad been standing in the vestibule,
unseen by either minister or people,
raised his umbrella and went out into
the darkness again, with the words of the
Delay not, delay not," followhymn,
ing him until he passed out of hearing.
He bad sought refuge there from the
storm just before the sermon, and had
been tin unseen auditor through the remainder ol' the service, lie had glanced
at the array of empty pews and the small
congregation scattered about the church
with a smile half of amusement, half of

contempt.

"A storm like thissifts a church pretty
thoroughly," he said to himself, "in spite
of all their professions there are few that
care enough for their soul's salvation to
seek it in such weather. I suppose the
minister will save a sermon by it, however, for no doubt he will either give
them an old one or let them go without
any. I can't say that I blame him either,
for empty seats have a remarkably depressing effect upon a man's eloquence."
The door leading from the vestibule
into the church was ajar, so he heard

June, 1885.

word of the serfnon without any
effort to do so. He listened with an interest that he was surprised at. It was
his boast that he could live, and had always lived and prospered, without religion. He was a successful lawyer, with
genial manners which made him universally popular. He was charitable and
generous, not from any sense of duty,
but from a kindness of heart that made
him willing todo any thing to alleviate
suffering or distress in others, and no
man could have led a more upright lite
than he did.
He believed himself to be thoroughly
sincere, and he was merciless in discovering inconsistencies in the lives of those
who professed to be Christians. He was
the leader of a large circle of young men
-who, admiiing his character and talents,
followed his example implicitly in regard
to religious matters. He had not entered the doors of a church for years, and it
was only the fury of the elements that
had driven him to seek a temporary
shelter there this evening. Had the sermon been argumentative he would
have sought arguments to mentally refute it, but it was nothing of the kind:
it was an earnest appeal to all to come to
the Savior. The words were full of impassioned entreaty, and he could not
doubt but that the speaker spoke from
his heart.
A strange longing to know somewhat
of this joy and pence In believing cam;'
over him as he stood there alone in the
darkness, but he shook off the feeling
half angrily. He would have plunged
into the storm again, but there was a
fascination that held him to the spot until the sermon was concluded and the
hymn read. He walked home rapidly,
trying to banish the train of thought
that hid been suggested by the words he
had heard, but his attempts were useless.
He sat by the glowing tire in the solitude
of his own room while the storm raged
without, and tried to comprehend this
new feeling which had taken possession
of his heart.
"It is the weather," he muttered to
himself, impatiently drawing the heavy
curtains together, that they might dead,
en the sound of the wind and rain. Hut
he could not as easily shut out this unusual depression that had seized him.
He kept late vigil, and when he finally
retired it was only to toss restlessly on his
pillow and hear again the words, "Come
unto me and I will give you rest." Rest!
That was what he longed for; but how
could he give up his unbelief, his arguments, and go to the Savior whom he
had rejected all his life ?
"That sermon was utterly wasted,"
said the minister to his wife when they
reached home, "for old Mr. Sands slept
through it, and itis evident enough that
the two girls present paid no heed to It.
And yet I cannot blame myself, for I did
my utmost. If I had had a hundred unconverted souls before me I could not
have tried more earnestly to win them.

Don't say that," answered his wife.
You have done your part, now trust the

it was with a heavy heart that he sought
his pillow.

He left his unfinished breakfast and went
into the parlor.
Minutes passed away into an hour, and
still Mrs, Newton heard the continuous
sound of voices in low, earnest conversation, and she grew somewhat annoyed at
this untimely visitor, who had interrupted her husband's breakfast. At last she
heard the sound of retreating footsteps
and the opening and closing of the front
door. She replaced tbedishes which she
had been keeping warm upon the hearth,
and sighed a little at the thought of how
long they had been kept waiting. When
the door opened and her husband reentered the room she was struck with the
look of solemn j.iy on his face.

the tempest to seek shelter within the
doors of the church, and he heard the sermon which I thought was wasted. It has
already brought forth fruit, by God's blessing, for Mr. Leonard came this morning,
as humbly as a child, to ask the way to
his Savior. May God forgive me for
my lack of faith in hispower, and to Him
be all the glory."
Mr. Leonard's openly professed allegiance to his new Master was but the first
fruit of that sermon. Those who had
imitated him in his indifference to religion
followed his lead now, and a new spiritual life was infused into the church, the
beginning of which could be traced back
to that stormy evening whenMr. Newton

had condemned as wasted. Exe/iange.
