Ii is no uncommon thing for
Christian people, under the pressure

The Christian Herald states that
many years ago, when the country
about Cincinnati was new, n Christ.
ian farmer who had employed a
number of hands to aid him in clear

that he would not have family pray

he would spend on 90 many hands
was more than he conld afford to
lose. lie had made up his mind to
get rich in haste, aui determined

purposes. she expostniated with
h'm' but in vain. Morning ca G.
and the w"rkmen were hurried to
breakfast. and hurried to work with.
out a breath Of prayer.
"Fhe next morning the tarmnr and
MS men went out, rs usual, to their
work. without u prayer. The ann
began to climb the sky. but no
breakfast horn WAS heard. Uo grew
angry, and looked anx ously toward
the house; he listened, but still tho
expected summons did not" "fSSond
the usual time, they went to the
house. No table was set, no coffee
WAS boiling on the fire, no food was
cooking over or before it. The good
wife was knitting quietly. with the
big bible open on her lap
"What does this mcan!' cried her
husband, why isn't our breakfast

Have time to eat! Do you think
We can live without eating!
"You can live without eating As
well as without praying. The spirit
needs the bread OF heaven .as mucF
as the boly needs the bread o

"Well, wcll," said the farmer

CHARLEs DIcKEss las met. by a
full, emphatic denial, the scandals
which certain London journalists
and letter. writers have recently Set
afloat with reference to his family re-
lations. Until further advised, we
shall believe that he states the truth,
and that the gossip OF his .Iadncers
had but a narrow basis OF fact, II
any. 1t seemed from the first i'm.
probable that he, the father Of FAM
lily OF grown-up children, and never
till now blown upon by the breath
of scandal, could have deliberately
exposed himself, in the autumn OF
life, to such gossip, Most likely he
had some m omentary difference with
his wife, which the tale-bcarers ag-
gravated into a serious alienation,
and then invented in6delity Oh his
part to account for that alienation.
