his little daughter, child five years
old
:" Mary, you are not good for any
thing"
Yes I am, dear father" replied she
looking thoughtfully and tcnderly into
his face.
Why, what are you good for : Pray
tell me, my dear.
am good to love you, father, re-
piled she, at the same time throwing her
tiny arms around his neck, and giving
him kiss Of unutterable affection.
Blessed child may your life ever be

of love The highest good you or any
other mortal can possibly confer, is to

WHERE ARE you GONG - An
anecdote is told of Finney, the revival
'ist,' and q canaler, to the following
effect:
He was holding forth" in Rochester
and in walking along the canal one day
came across boatman who was swearing
'furiously. Marching up, he confronted
him, and rather abruptly asked
"Sir, do you know where you are
going :" .,rl. ...
The unsuspecting man innocently re-
piled that he was going up the canal on
the boat Johnny Sands"
No sir, you are not" continued
Finncy, You are going to hell faster
than a canal boat can convey you y
The boatman looked at him with as
'tonishment for minute, and then re-
turned the question
Sir, do you know where you are
goingi"
II expect to 60 to heaven"
No sir ! you are going right intO
the canapl 20
And suiting the action to the word,
took Finney in bis arms and tossed him
into the murky waters, where he would
have drowned, had not the boatman re
Tented and fshed him out.
