seldom willing to be selfsacrifcing Have
you never heard charitable friend intor.
preting the sure dismal end of such an ono !:
Have you never seen fathers and mothers
anxious as to what shall become of their
darling child But God sonds an angel to
commune with her IA babe. And now BY
the sanctuary Of tho cradle, the whole world
is dead to her. All pleasures spring up
around a6ou, That spot. All toll for her
child child y As hSoursed M a. priyIlege. There !. -.
thero is not enough to DO done or rather,
there 10 no solf-sacrifce except that of lot.
ting others do what she herself wishes to do
for tho child. Her lovc makes her benevo.
lent. Here was child that could not be
controlled or taught to 1.-Two for others, but
the moment tho great power OF love was
awakened 10 hor soul, and shc had an OBJ
ject which absorbed her affection, her whole
life was changed. And so God redeems, BY
