The Way to Fortune.

Let no poor boy, after reading the
following fact, ever despair Of making
a respectable living:
a gentleman was once walking
down one the streets Of P,
when beggar loudly craved for few
coppcls for a nights lodging, The
gentleman looked earnestly at the
Ioor man lnl he then enquired:
'Why do you not work ? You should
be ashamed Of begging
50, sir, do not know where to get
employment
Nonsense replied tie gentleman;
'you can work if you will. Nov listen
to me. l was once beggar like you.
A gentleman gave ne a crown piece,
aud said to nc work and don't beg;
God helps those who helps themselves
/ left p, and got out Of the way of
my old com 3anions. l remembered
the advice given me by my mother
before she died, and l began to pray
God to keep me from sin and to give me
His help day by day. went around
to the houses in the country places,
and with part Of my five slillings |
bought old rags. These | took to the
paper mills aud sold them at a profit.
l was always willing to give the fair
price for what l bought, and did not
try to sell them for more than ! be-
loyed them worth. l determined to
be honest and God prospered me-
My purchases and profits became
longer and larger; and now l have
more than ten thousand crown pieces,
that | can call my own. One great
thing that has contributed to my sue,
cess is this. | have kept from drink
and tobacco.
As the gentleman spoke. he took out
his purse and drew from it five shil-
ling piece, and handing it to the aston
ished beggar, he said;

Years passed away. The gentle
man had forgotten the circumstance
until one day, when travelling through
p, he entered respectable looking
booksellers shop in order to purchase
some books that he wanted.
lie had not been many minutes in
conversation with the bookseller, be>
fore the latter, eagerly looking into
the face Of his customer, cn1uired.
'Sir,are you not the gentleman, who,
several years ago, gave a five shilling
piece to a poor boggar at the end of
the street,
Yes, remember it WE'LL
"Thcn sir, this house-this well
stocked shop is the fruit of that five
shilling piece Tears of gratifcd
pride tricklcd down his checks as he
introduced the gentleman to his happy
wife and children. lie was regarded
as their Icneractor. When gathered
around the table to take a cup Of tea
the bookseller recountcd his history
from the above cyentful day. 1t was
very similar to that of the welcome
visitor. BY industry, honesty and de>
pcndence upon God's help, he had
risen step by step, from buying rags
to selling papers and tracts through
the streets, then to keeping an old
book shop, and ultimately to be the
owner Of the best circulating libraries
in the placc.-Before the happy party
separated, the large old family bible
was brought, out of which a psalm Of
thanksgiving was read, and then all
bent round the family a)tar.-WoIds

who formed the group. For some mo,
mcnts silence interminglcd with sub,
ducd sobs cvinccd the gratitude to the
Almighty Disposcr of all events, which
was ascending to Heaven.
When they rose and badc each other
farewell the bookseller said:
THANK God. found your words to
be true. God helps those who help
themselves. ltis better to work than

Youthful stranger, dail-cyed wecper,
May the blessed angels keep her,
Underneath their shadowy wings,
Free from all unholy things,
Till her sorrow -whitcncd spirit,
Resting on the Savior's merit,
Pass from present wretchedncss,
Into final bcsscdncss.
Bride of earth, lifc's true cvangel,
Here, and 1Hcyc, the spirit angel
OF the lost one gone before
Up to tread the goidcu S3orc

While you folded back the hair
Damply resting on his brow
Smiled he then he's smiling now,
And that prayer, in weakness given,
Bore his spirit up to Heaven.
Float you ever through his dreaming,
just as when your tcais were streaming
Der his pillow where he died;
And your quickcncd faith uncloudcd
when he reached deaths billowy tide,
Saw an angel throng unshroudcd
Waiting on the other side
Then Was loves best Offering
Made complete through suffering.

From the Fathers bosom sever,

Yol receive His welcome token
Saying "Dauehter ontcr in,
To thy rest" Life 5 transient sweetness
FnJcth in divine completeness.
Worship not your treasure less,
Lowe In. Heaven is mcasurclcSs,
Floating it,m the Father, through
Your adorcd one, dow. To You,
Thus reflected from the throne
OF the piyhs suffering Son,
It becomes transparent, loWly,
Child like, Christ-like. God-lil>c, holy
A. you loved the gilt H. gave YOU,
viii Ne ransom. love and save you.
Love and Faith are free, suYcrnal,
Resting on the Great Eternal,
Growing stronger, purcr, clearer,
As they draw your spirit nearer
TO the aims outslreichcd To grasp you,
Tothe heart laid low to clasp !ou,
As lifc's weary shadows lcngthcn
Does that cord Of union strengthen.
Troops Of angels night and morning,
Gather up for Heaven adorhiug,
Gems that lie in lrath's dark river,
And restore them to the givcr,
Ever circlmg round the Throne,
Where your loved one knecls atone.
Soon the whitcSt of tEai band,
Shall return at HiS command,
And with fearless, faithful hand
Load you to tie "lCuc land,
Where your hearts as one heart loving
Lost in rapture kncel adoring
Oh for faith like yours, sweet stranger,
Earnest, steadiast, free from danger
May that sinlcs> angel love you,
And with blessings floa; above You.
Till upon the Fathers breast,
You are laid in peaceful rest,
Passing from life 5 wrctchcdncsS,
Into perfect blcsscdncsS.
