An Augustana Journal reflection tells of a Christian railroad engineer who helps a tramp with food, then urges reverence for Jesus. The piece argues sorrow refines rather than harms, likening fire to trials that purify, and urges accepting grief as a divine messenger to wisdom and strength.
A sermon-like reflection compares oratory to artillery, noting a speaker must have substantial character to give weight to words. It cites Paul urging imitation of deeds, arguing eloquence relies on the person behind the speech and that the best speaking occurs before the mouth opens.
Aunt Martha cites a charity tale of a boy who refused pay for returning a purse and helping an elderly woman. Dr Snow seeks an honest reference and hires Frank Lowell after Martha reveals the boy’s care for his sick mother and good character. The piece ends with a religious note on assembly and prayer.
A sermon-style reflection discusses Jesus rising and ascending to intercede for believers and prepare a heavenly place, distinguishing two resurrections while urging personal ascension through faith. It argues for literal biblical meaning over spiritualized readings, and urges humble, faithful daily duties as paths to a great life.
A religious passage invokes Micah 7 19 20 urging God to fulfill his promises to the fathers. It links human affliction to disturbed relations with God and the fall enforcing guilt over confidence, noting sin entered Adam and Paradise was lost.
Joseph Parker cites the parable of the sick who seek many doctors before Christ. He argues people avoid Jesus first, try theories and physicians, and only appeal to Him when near death. Jesus remains compassionate, meeting desperate requests with patient grace.
A midwestern Christian sermon argues sin as the sole mortal threat, not disease or death. It cites Paul’s perspective on death as liberty from sin and emphasizes Christ gives victory over sin, while sin separates humanity from God. The Lutheran references frame sin as humanity’s true foe.
A reflective meditation on the joy of giving, citing a teaching of Jesus that true living lies in disbursement. It argues that happiness comes from sharing possessions, wealth, or wisdom rather than hoarding them, and it extols loving and giving as superior to receiving.
A pet themed convention features an equine president addressing cruelty and vivisection reform. A pup, a cat, a tabby, and a horse add voices about tails, shelters, and humane funding as cheers ring and resolutions honor water fountains and killed animals.
The article advises housekeepers to limit ice water to prevent kidney trouble and heat illness. Recommend drinking from a faucet or well, or chilling drinks in bottles on ice but never adding ice. Suggest lemonade, coffee, tea, currant drinks, and fruit syrups as refreshing summer beverages with practical preparation notes.
A manufacturer weighed two young men for a London agency. One was punctual and steady, the other brilliant but late and forgetful. At a dinner set for seven o clock the punctual man arrived on time, while the other blamed his watch for a late appearance. The next day the timely worker received the London appointment with a larger salary.
A reflective plea to share affection and comfort while friends live not after death. The speaker urges open acts of kindness and timely words rather than saving gestures for funerals, arguing post mortem kindness offers no real solace.
A concise reflection contrasts wisdom with formal learning, noting the ease of possessing one without the other. The aphorism suggests true wisdom may surpass mere accumulation of knowledge, while learning without wisdom risks superficial understanding.
