When Elihu Yale founded that time hon
ored institution of learning, Yale College, he
struck a blow at ignorance that has rever
berated for more than two centuries through
out the length and breadth of the land, and
placed his name in the foremost rank of
America's public benefactors. .But a greater
scourge than ignorance is now running
rampant in our midst. Do you know what
ails you when you have a dull headache ; no
appetite; nothing tastes good that you eat;
specks pass before your eyes ; low spirits ;
an irritable and peevish temper ; bowels con
stipated; an appearance of red or white
brick dust in the mine ; a tired feeling and
don't know what ails you? You have fallen
a victim to that modem scourge, Malaria.
Nothing on this earth will tone you up so
quickly and arrast the progress of Malaria
as Lewis' Red Jacket Bitters, the only sure
cure for Dumb Ague, Chills and Fever, and
all forms of Malaria. Don't wait till you
are on your back but begin at once the use
of Lewis' Bed Jacket Bitters.

Rev. Dr. Smyth delivered at Center
church yesterday morning' a sermon on
"Questions of the hour and times," which
was full of interest and power and will well
repay perusal. The greater part of the dis
course is given below in the speaker's words.
Luke 13; 56-57, "Ye hyopcrites; ye know how to
interpret the face of the earth and the heaven;
how is it tnat ye know not how to interpret this
time? And why even of yourselves judge ye not
what is right?'
In opening the discourse set forth briefly
and pungently the necessity of a true and
right life and character in order to a trne
discernment of the times. "Make the life of
the people trne and public opinion can be
trusted to judge that which is right in every
time. The instinct of trne life is the best in
terpreter of God's times." Proceeding, the
speaker enforced the thought that it is the
duty "of a Christian chnrch and Christian
ministry to seek to interpret the times and
on all questions to make pablio opinion
right." "No Christian pulpit, in loyalty to this
word of Christ can hold itself altogether
aloof from the providential problems of the
hour." The speaker then invited the hearers
to consider two of the prov
idential signs of the times
and said: "I shall speak accordingly of
present providential indications in social and
theological problems. The two are more
closely related than may be thought."
"A socialism which would push man along
without any religion is only laying down one
single rail for human progress, so a relig
ions belief which does not ran all along
parallel with some practical line of conduct
would be of little nee to the people. The
problem or bistory is to take humanity out
of Babylon and its iniquities and to . trans
port it to the Jerusalem which is free. And
Christianity, which is the way of progress, is
ootn truth ana practice, both theology and
life. He is no friend of man who would
separate the two."
"First, then, how shall we interpret the
social signs of the times!" Proceeding the
speaker said: society is one living, organ
ic thins; and it cannot be split into opposing
halves without shedding its life blood." "The
question is, Who shall have modern society ?
Does it belong to the devil or to Uod! This
question is pre eminently the social question
of this time. The true chnrch will say: The
life of society shall not be destroyed by any
war of classes; humanity is one body and it
must be kept as one divine creation, and in
this one body all mnst be members, one of
another. Any power that would divide hu
manity is false to man.
"I point to it as one of the signs of the past
year that the truth ot the organic unity, the
living solidarity, the common humanity of
men, is coming more powerfully into the
consciousness of the people. An hour of
anarchy has aroused the conscience of the
country to this truth of our social integrity.
The failure of strikes of one class against an
other class has taught the people anew that
we must prosper together. And the social
fever and excitement which sometimes
seems to make the whole head of onr society
sick and the whole heart faint what is not
that teaching ns all? Are we not learning
that there is danger for the whole
body if we let any member suffer!
Society cannot drag its feet in
the mire, and hope to keep its eye always
claer. Society cannot continue to let its
hands be unprotected or unclean, and keep its
heart merry or Us brains free from attack of
delirium. If from all these labor troubles
and all this social agitation we are learning
this trnth of the solidarity of humanity,
this truth, as in our Christian language we
should put it, that God has made us mem
bers one of another, we shall read a sign of
the time which wa must understand if the
blood of the people is not to be made hot
with the sense of wrong and the whole con
stitution of our society torn and rent by con
vulsive efforts for industrial liberty. I know
that some men of insight and intelligence are
beginning to say that the .present state of
the country is ominous as were the signs
of discontent and uneasiness in that period
which preceded the outbreak of the anti
slavery conflict. It cannot, indeed, be de
nied that great masses of our countrymt n are
feeling a sense of grievance which they find
it difficult to define. And the past year has
left, as a sign of what may be coming, not, in
deed, the strikes which have spent their
force, not the method of boycotting which
has already become too dull a weapon for
use, but a new labor movement in politics;
and that is a sign of possible demands for wa
know not what upon the organio law of the
land."
Continuing the speaker saw in all this tur
moil and agitation "God's sign of hope."
"For this also is plain, that an instinct of jus
tice and a love of humanity is the deepest
thing and the truest that is in the heart of
the people." The best brain and intelli
gence of the country was rising to meet the
issue presented and the discourse alluded to
the work now being done to fit and train
young men at Yale under Yale's new era, and
at Harvard and elsewhere, to meet these so
cial and political questions. "Our New Eng
land colleges, true to the memories of
the men who founded them for country
and for God. aie educating our youth.
the sons of rich men and poor men toeether.
to be teachers and leaders along those lines
of true progress, and the influence of men so
trained will be felt in the legislation and the
lite ot this country after the demagogue
shall have fallen' with his blind followers
into the ditch, and the people shall pass on
under wiser guidance to a civilization more
prosperous, more eqnal, more just." "The
scholar," to quote a phrase which I heard
ennne my college days and have not forgot
ten, "the scholar receives the people's oil and
returns it to them in light."
"The Christian pulpit too, whenever, at
least, it nas tele a rresn breath from the
spirit, is inspired with the Lord's word of
the gospel of the kingdom, and is preaching
tne truth not merely ot individual election
but of the redemption of the world in Christ
and the election of all believers to service and
to usefulness for the kingdom of God's
sake." - t
The speaker now took np the ' second divi
sion of bis theme, continuing as follows:
A glance through the past is necessary for
any appreciation of recent theological Big s.
In the New Testament is to be found an epis
tie to the Romans. The very title marked a
new era in the history of the Christian reli
prion. Christ was preached to the Romans.
And the distinguishing characteristic of the
style and of the whole mode of approach to
the truth of Christ in that epistle is its
adaptation to the Koman habit of mind. St.
Paul was fitted and chosen for that special
work. St. Paul was himself a lawyer. He
bad been trained in a Hebrew school of law
And besides that he was a Roman citizen
and as a Roman citizen probably nnderatood
something of Roman law. With that epistle
to tne itomnns mere Degins tne Koman con
ception of Christianity. It is a forensic
presentation of divine truth, such a present
ation as Roman lawyers could easily appro
priate. That conception of trnth which the
apostle who could be all things to all men so
wisely beean.and was chosen and inspired to
begin, has been wrought out through a long
niBtory ot controversy and creed. A distin
guished inrist has lately had occasion to
point ont how thoroughly the Roman juris
prudence has sat mated our traditional theol
ogy. "The principles of the Roman law
colored theology after the reformation as well
as bet ore." Some time since a person
narrated to me the difficulties which- had
prevented his making a oonfession of faith,
They were mostly difficulties with the Roman
law conception of Christianity, as that con
ception has been elaborated in certain re
ceived formulas, difficulties which more
properly might be charged to the code of
J ustinian than to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Some of the ordinary phrases which are fa
miliar to us in onr Protestant creeds have
been transferred almost bodily from the Ro
man law. Now, observe, I beg of you, that
1 do not suggest tnat this conception of
Christianity and its development in our Latin
creeds is raise or was unnecessary. Xt is, in
its way and rightly understood, a true and
helpful conception. It may still be useful to
us, for examnle.to conceive of Christ's atone
ment under the old common law prinoiple of
the payment of a debt by an aocepted substi
tute, although that legal form has fallen into
disuse and few are familiar with it. I do
not deny that the trnth of Christ could adapt
itself witnoHt untruthfulness to the Koman
habit of mind, because that wonld be to re
fuse to accept as canonical the Epistle to the
Romans: neither do I deny that this whole
Latin and legal conception and systematization
of Christian doctrine has not been a most
necessary and providential development, and
that it has borne important fruits which re
main for our use and profit.
.But my point is that this whole Koman
era of Christianity is evidently in this cen
tury coming to its period.
i state this as a tact which is too evident
to be denied by anyone who knows anything
about the history of modern theology. Now
I want to make plain to you, if possible in a
few words, the significance of this fact as a i
providential sign for us to interpret. I may 1
make what I wonld state clearer to legal
minds, perhaps, by comparing recent change
and. as I believe, progress of Christian theol
ogy, to the progress which has been made in
modern jurisprudence. The parallel is more
illuminative because our jurisprudence and
onr formal notions of Christian doctrine
have, as was juBt stated, much that is com
mon in tne pnraseoiogy ot tne Koman mw.
The progress of modern jurisprudence, as I
understand it, has been made mainly in what
Jeremy Bentham distinguished as the adjec
tive portion in contrast with the substantive
portion of the law. This has been to some
extent a re-codification law, but the progress
has been mainly in modes of procedure.
Not a change in the substantive, but the ad
jective, not a change in the essential princi
ples of law, so much as in their mode of ap
plication. And in the simplification of modes
of law, in methods of bringing principles of
law to bear more simply, directly, and really
upon cases, progress has been made, and
much progress remains to be made. Now
precisely this is what the theology which
began in this country with Jonathan Ed
wards, and whose end of improvement is not
yet, has been doing, and will do. The essen
tial principles of the gospel have not been
abandoned, and they will not be. They are
older than any of its existing forms. There
has been no loss from the substance of the
gospel, but there has been much gain in the
simplicity of the adjectives. We have not
abandoned, indeed, all Roman forms of pre
eenting the gospel, but have declared that
we will not be bound by them. And I
am sure the mode of procedure has been sim
plifled.and will be still more in our churches.
We have been reviving the older Greek the-
oloev, and have dared to think with Origen,
and Clement of Alexandria, and with Justyn
Martyr, and with St. John, as well as with
Calvin, and Augustine, and Iren(eus,or in con
tact with that one side ef St. Paul's many
sidedness which is presented particularly in
the epistle to the Romans. And the one
common motto of the theology of this pres
ent time is to be found in that old saying of
that ancient father, "Let us learn to live
according to Christianity." Such is the dis
tinguishing sign of a living and hopeful the
ology; let us learn to think according to
Christ Jesus.
I have spoken of this movement, which is
now quite general and powerful, as a move
ment which began with Jonathan Edwards.
It did. He accepted, for he had no other
choice, the theological and philosophical
forms of his day ; but his spiritual being
overflowed them, and his spiritual thought
to-day is flowing on in broader channels
than he knew. The theology of JNew Eng
land has always carried in it a spirit and life
which could not be confined in the swad
dling clothes in which its infancy was
wrapped. It broke loose from Calvinism by
grasping boldly the principle of a universal
atonement for all men. It shook off a Ro
man limitation in its abandonment of the
idea of mankind as being bound, like one
Roman family, nnder the headship of Adam
the federal theology, as it nsed to be called,
and which used to be regarded as the faith
once delivered to the saints. It proclaimed
the individual responsibility of every sinner
before God. It subscribed, but in no servile
subjection, to the Westminster standards,
the confession and the catechisms, which
were thoroughly legal and political in their
origin and their forms. It went boldly baok
to the New Testament and became again a
disciple of Jesus himself. And it would be
disloyalty to ths best traditious of our New
England theology and bondage to a yoke
to which our fathers would have given p ace,
no, not for an hour. Should we not follow still
onward the way of God's providence through
the new problems and the new sciences and
the growing revelation which God is con
stantly making of himself in the history ot
his redeeming love! I hail it then as a happy
sign of our times that we are working out
anew onr forms and our statements of belief
to meet the demands of the hour upon our
faith, to meet the demands of the world upon
a Christianity which is to be light for the
oriental mind in India as well as tor our
selves. And I hail it as a hopeful sign of
the times that the instinct of the religious
public even with swifter and surer discern
meet than the minds of many of us who have
been trained in the theology of the Latin
confessions has discerned this need of a sim
pie gospel to meet the missionary opportuni
ty of the present hour. I will suffer myself
to allude but briefly to the controversies of
the da; , through all the alarm and clangor of
which the new missionary era of Christianity
is to be sung in. These controversies and
agitations are peculiar to no denomination,
and they are originated by no men. They
aie providential problems and all churches,
nay, all parties even, under God's overruling
wisdom are contributing to the advance of
Christ's kingdom. In our own de
nomination the general movement which I
have been describing has been obstructed or
held back at two separate points, and two
controversies in conseqnence have arisen. Of
one of these 1 will not saner myself to speak.
Of the other I will say that the controversy
which is still unsettled in regard to the ad
ministration of the American board may in
volve some temporary loss of money and of
men to missionary service, but it should, in
volve on our part no loss of steadfast loyalty
towards the board itself. Policies chance.
and men change, but the cause of missions is
the cause of Christ.
And it is my firm belief that as the final
result of this whole painful controversy all
obstructions will be removed which now may
lie in the way of the best educated and most
Catholic missionary service, and that what
ever traditional methods or difficulties in
the present administration of missions
would prevent the return of a man like Mr.
Hume to his work, or the sending as mission
aries prepared to teach in the spirit of free
Christian scholarship, as they nave been
taught in iale theological seminary, are ob
stacles and obstructions to Christian service
which are destined ere long to be swept
away before the rising public opinion of the
churches whose servant, and not whose mas
ter, the American board is.
Two signs of our times are meeting, and
the interpretation is not obscure; on the one
hand an open door for the gospel to the
higher classes of the Pagan world, and on the
other hand the education of young men
in our leading theological seminaries to meet
with a broad and comprehensive Christian
wisdom the thought of men in all lands.
I take occasion, before closing, to speak
of one theological novelty, however, which
is not a sign of anything but folly, and which
it seems to me a true and reverent conserva
tism should hasten to rebuke. I refer to a
revised edition of the Apostles' creed which
this past week some of you besides myself
may have received.
Had we been told that some convocation
of lord bishops after prolonged consideration
had deemed an enlargement and emendation
of that ancient symbol of our faith neces
sary, we might have received the result with
a pained surprise. But the new Apostles'
creed comes to ns in the last week of the
year 1886 unheralded, without authority or
name, yet enclosed in an official envelope of
our American board. 1 should be grstihed
if this public mention of it might serve to
draw out a denial of any part or complicity
in this ofienso against all iitnrgical souls
from the secretaries and prudential commit
tee who are responsible for the ad
ministration and the eood name of
that board in all our churches. Even if
honored and successful missionaries are to be
stricken down because of differences of theo
logical opinion upon doubtful matters of
revelation, we might at least be spared from
a reckless spirit of innovation to which not
even the most ancient symbol of the faith of
the church seems sacred. The Apostles'
creed grew out of the baptismal formula of
the apostolic chnrch; its simple and solemn
confession of the Christian faith was in use
when the church was still one body before
the division into the eastern and western
churches. It belongs to the liturgy of all
Episcopal communions and like the Lord's
prayer has become a common heritage and
sign of the one Catholic church universal.
It has become in all our churches, so far as
any nninspired form of words can become, a
sacred trust. Our Puritan fathers were bold
iconoclasts in their day, but I know not that
they ever ventured to offer to the world a
parody of an ancient creed. The American
board has never to my knowledge given any
man or body of men the right to use its name
and the cover of its authority in circulating
among our churches any private creed of pri
vate interpretation, and still less to ottend
the liturgies of other and noble Christian
communions by laying sacrilegious hands
upon a symbol of faith so ancient and so
sacred and so dear to all (Jhristian hearts as
the Apostles' creed. Surely thisdevisive the
ological novelty is no sign of that grow
ing Christian unity in which all large
and generous souls are beginning to rejoice.
And the dawn of that day of the Son of Man
is already in onr skies. Let onr faces be to
wards its blessed light. I would turn to-day
to the younger members of this church and
congregation.- I wonld have yon feel that
vou are living in one of the days of the Son
of Man. I would show you that this is a
Christian world, and that you may find
Christ's work to be done in it. I would
have you see what is coming to me with
ever stronger conviction, that in Christ and
the company of his disciples you can find
life worth living, and your characters can be
come complete and radiant. The new year
has begun. The old is passed. Some whom
we shall sadly miss have been gathered to
the fathers. The past of this church is se
cure; its future is with the young men and
the young .women to whom I preach. I
Would ask for your help and your enthusiasm
in all the work of the church. And if we
should be permitted to stand together at the
close of this greatest of Christian centuries,
and some who are now consecrating your
early youth to the Lord should then be
found still looking on into years of service
beyond any possibility of my age, may grace
then be given me to bid you si ill go forward
bound to the past by no teaching of mine,
with mind free to follow whatever truth of t
God may still break from his word, or be
made manifest in his constant revelation of
himself in his works and in redemption,
with no fetters upon your thoughts, but
with the cross of Ubrist in your hearts. And
upon this first Sabbath of another of the
years of the Son of Man, I would ask again
some who are not nnmDerea wnn us, out
whose hearts are Christian, to be truer to
themselves and to become more helpful to
others, by taking upon themselves with us
the vows of the Lord's house.
HOSPITAL SUNDAY.
Tbe Hospital' Work; In 188 More
Than Ever Before
The annual collection for the New Haven
hospital will be taken up on Saturday and
Sunday, January 8th and 9th, 1837. During
1886 the work of the hospital has been large
ly increased over that of the preceding year.
Not only has the daily number of patients
risen from 105 to 114, but the activity of
the hospital, that is, the number of admis
sions and discharges, has been larger than
ever before. This latter feature of the work
is due partly, we believe, to increased effio
iency, but mainly of course to an increased
demand for hospital treatment. There is
year by year a larger proportion of acute
cases, a smaller one of merely infirm patients.
Though there was a falling off in the average
number of patients in 1885, during the past
year it has been close to the maximum, with
the prospect that it will be larger rather
tnan smaller.
With the receipts from patients less than
the coat of caring for them, and the income
from investments very small, we must de
pend on public contributions to help cover
our running expenses. The money lately so
licited from the public is to be spent entirely
for special improvements, and cannot be
used to meet our yearly deficit. It is for
this that we make our annual appeal on
Hospital Sunday.
We believe the hospital to be better
equipped than eve before, and are confident
of-the liberal support of the entire community-

The holders of fire alarm box keys wonld
do well to examine their keys and see if the
hole in the keys are stopped up with dirt
which has accumulated in their pockets. In
a number of instances, says a well known fire
department offioial, the keys have been found
so badly clogged with dirt that it would be
impossible to unlock to box the give an alarm,
which might cause serious delay in turning
in a call. A policeman some months ago in
trying to unlock a box to give an alarm
could not do so for this reason and valuable
time was lost. This suggestion is worthy of
note.

the younger classes and their teachers. The
school formed ia procession and marched in

DR. JOHN L. LYON,
NO. 49 CHURCH STREET,
The well known and reliable
Botanic and Eclectic Physician
Room 11, Hoadley Building
Side Entrance 123 Crown Street.
(Opposite tne Postofflee.)
Office so arranged that patients see no oue bu
the doctor.
Who has practiced medicine in this city since 1854
can be consulted at his office.
Dr. Lyon's success in the treatment of all dla
eases has been marvelous and his fame has spread
throughout the length and breadth of the United
States. Being opposed to all mineral and poisonous
drugs, he has selected choice and potent remedials
from the vegetable kingdom only, and with val
uable roots, barks and herbs is prepared to CURB
the most stubborn and intractive disease. - Con"
sumption, that bane of our eastern climate, which
causes so many to succumb to its ruthless power, i
CURED by Dr. Lyon, as many testimonials from
unimpeachable witnesses attest. Dyspepsia, Hie
national scourge, which dooms thousands to tor
ture and misery, is routed and annihilated by a rem
edy discovered by the doctor. In no case yet has
this inestimable specific failed of banishing that
painful disease. All diseases of the Lungs, Liver
and Kidneys, ss well as Skin Diseases, and all Im
purities of the Blood of whatever name and na
ture, are radically and permanently cured in a
surpriilngly short time by the doctor's improved
method of treatment.
TO FEMALES:
The special diseases to which females are subject
are treated with perfect success by Dr. Lyon. The
doctor has made those diseases a special study for
over a third of a century, and his success has been
as gratifying as it has been complete. Therefore
all ladies suffering from any diseases incidental to
then-sex will find in Dr. Lyon a true friend and
skilled physician and one who is competent to treat
all those diseases and effect permanent cures In
the shortest possible time.
TO MALES
Who are suffering from the errors of youth, los
manhood, etc., and find themselves weakened and
debilitated, and also those suffering from venerea
diseases: Dr. Lyon will prove to you that he CAN
and WILL CURE YOU. Hundreds of advertise
ments appear in panerR wit.h tit. ,
ous cures which tempt hakt to bksd for bomb
winua HEDicrHBs which not only fail or at-
rORDXKO THK RELIEF DKSIRKD, but also RUIN THK
PATIENT'S CONSTITUTION. Do not trust your
self to those leeches who prey upon the unfortunate
but call at once on the doctor and you will never re
gret it.
He has successfully treated more cases of Sperma
torhcea. Seminal WeeJmesg and all Diseases of the
Generative Organs than any other physician living
and his experience and skill avail in every instance
in restoring the sufferer to sound health andspirits.
Hundreds of letters from
C3 -u.vuio vou l V

Dr. Lyon has discovered a remedy which is a cer.
tain cure for Dumb Ague, Chills and Fever and ai.
Malarial Complaints.
