The KIND SisrER.-A gentleman was penetra
ting one of the widest counties of Northern Penn
sylvanla in attempting TO explore its spiritual desti
tuition, when he was informed of family far up
rude water course, which he at once determined to
visit. The father of the family had settled there
TO make shingles, which he floated dowE the stream
in the spring floods; and so completely isolated was
he from the neghborhood that there was no road to
his dwelling, up the bed Of the aforesaid stream
With no small difficulty he reached the residence
which he sought.
His surprise can hardly be imagined, when, in
stead OF the half savage and completely ignorant
household which he expected to find, he was re-
ceved by well ordered and pious family And
still more was he surprised, when he learned the
singular in which this ont of the way settler
had been brought to the knowledge of the Gospel.
1t was thus
A few years previously a party ofgay young men
had come from Philadelphia, TO hunt deer in the
wild glens of that mountain region. One night they
passed at the single makers hut. After tea, one
of the number opened his carpet bag to get pack
OF cards to while away the evening; but instead of
finding the cards which he had placed there, he
pulled out copy of "Doddrdge's Rise and Pro-
gress," tied up in the same envelope in which he
had folded the pack The change was the work of
kind sister at home, who had looked in his CARPET
bag, and ventured thus TO throw shield around her
brother. He left the book with the family when
leaving the next day, not regarding il as worth the
room 1t would take, and went his way. But that
despised book was like the ark in the house OF
the Hiitite it brought blessing costly and rich tc
those souls. II converted, by divine mercy, tina
household. And there up under the smoked bear
above the chimney piece, it kept and cherished
guardian angel TO the poor mans dwelling, which
it had changed from house of sin to house O
prayer.

FRANKNEss.-Be frank with the world Frank
ness is the child of honesty and courage Say just
what you mean to do OH every occasion; and take
1t tor granted you intend to do right If friend
asks favor you should grant it, lift is reasonable
II not, tell him plainly why you cannot. You will
wrong him and wrong yourself by equivocation Of
any kind. Never do wrong thing TO make friend
nor to keep one the man who requires you to do SO
is dearly purchased at sacrifice. Deal kindly but
firmly, with all men you will find it the policy
which wears best. Above all do not appear to 9th
ers what you are not. If you have any fault 10 find
with any one, tell him, not others, of what you
complain. There Is no more dangerous experiment
than that of undertaking to be one thing TO mans
face and another behind his back. We should live.
