SCRIPTURE CONFIRMED BY MoDERN
TEsTMoNY.-After the children of Isra
bad crossed the Jordan and had taker
the city of Al, they assembled as Moses
had previously commanded them, in th'
valley between mounts Ebal and Gerizim
half of them "over against" either noun
tain. The Levites on mount Gerizim
then read the blessings, and the Levites
on mount Ebal the cursings, and the vast
congregation responded, Amen. Bishop
Colenson and modern sceptics discredit
this narrative as given by Joshua, saying
that it is abused TO believe that the voice
of any man could be heard from one
mountain to another, An English cler~
gymap, Rev. John Mills, who has spent
three months at Nablus, at the foot Of
these mountains, states that where they
approach nearest are the two lowest
spurs, looking like two noble pulpits,
where the Levites probably stood. The
valley between, he says, is Ike the floor
Of vast place of worship, and the noun
tain slopes receding gradually, offer
room for hundreds of thousands to be
conveniently seated to hear the words of
the law. Mr.. Mills and two of his friends
determined to test the question whether
the human voice could traverse the dis
tance between the two mountains.
lie ascended the pulpit on Gerizim,
where he read the command, concerning
the blessing, and one of his friends did
the same on Ebal, reading the cursings.
The other friend standing in the valley
requested them to sing, and gave out,
"Prlise God from whom all blessings fow."
They sang it to the tune of Old Hundred,
and so clear is the atmosphere there, it
was their impression that if the whole
area before and around them had been
filed with listeners, every note would
have been distinctly heard.

GONE MAN LEFT TO I THE
TRUTH."-It is related of Latimer, that
when he once preached before that tyrant
Henry VIII, he took a plain, straight
forward text, and in his sermon assailed
those very sins for which the monarch
was notorious, and he was stung TO the
quick, for truth always finds response
IN the worst mans conscience. He
would not bend beneath the authority of
his God, and be therefore sent for Lati-
mer, and said, "Your life is in jeopardy,
If you do not rscant all you said today
when you preach next Sunday" The
trimming courtiers were all anxious to
know the consequence of this, ald the
chapel was crowded. The venerable
man took his text, and, after a pause,
begun with solloquv, thus :-"Now,
Hugh Latimer, bethink thee, thou art in
the presence of the earthly monarch +;
thy life is in his hands, and If thou dost
not suit thyself TO his fancies, he will
bring down thy gray hairs with blood to
the grave; but, Hugh Latimer, bethink
thee--thou art in the presence of the
King of kings and Lord of lords, who
hath told thee, fear not them that kill the
body, and then can do no more but
rather fear him who can kill both body
and soul,---and cast thee into hell for
ever! Yea, say, Hugh Latimer, fear
Him." He then went on, and not only
repeated what be had before advanced,
but, if possible, enforced it with greater
emphasis. What was the consequence /?
Henry sent for him, and said " How burst
thou insult thy monarch SO ?" Latimer
replied, ~ thought if 1 were unfaithful
to my earthly king, how could / serve
the king of kings?" The king embraced
the good old bishop, excIaiming, "And is
there yet one man LETT who is bold and
homes. enough to tell me the truth?"

A good story is told of Michigan man
who went out hunting with friend and
found an oil spring on his friends farm
He sought to quench his thirst at a spring
they passed, but found it tasted very
strongly of oil. He kept the secret to
himself but suddenly became anxious to
buy the farm. After he had bought it
for 100000 and had announced his in
tention to bore for oil, the former owner
consolingly remarked ;-"My dear fel-
low, the night before you drank out Of
that spring, my hostler went there to
water the horse and by accident broke a
kerosene lamp, which fell into the spring,
and it was the oil from it that you tasted :"
He then concluded he wouldn't bore.

SHEEP SHEARS Few people have
any correct idea of the difference in saw
ing by the use of good shears. 1t is
profitable to get the very best that can
be had. They should be Of the best
steel--and of medium leneth--the points
not too sharp. The spring should not
be too stiff--as the hand soon becomes
weary. Experienced shearers will al
ways select those having long blades
Those who pay no attention to the kind
of shears they use, frequently mutilate
the sheep and besides this, they leave
enough wool on their backs to pay for a
good pair Of shears in one season. 1t is
good economy to select the best shears,
and see to it that they are kept sharp

BEANS FOR SHEEP.-There is no
better feed for any kind of sheep than
beans, and they are even superior to
peas for producing a large Aow Of milk
Feed for fattening ewes and wethers, one
pound each daily, with some hay, corn
stalks, and bright straw, they will make
good mutton in a short time. Breeding
ewes should not be fed with beans until
after they have yeaned, as such feed, by
producing great flow Of milk previous
10 parturilion, may induce garset-
Beans should always be stepped ten or
twelve hours before feeding, especially if
sheep are aged or have poor teeth.

Evening.

Sweet evening star, sweet evening star,
While thy calm radiance floats afar,
Be mine to tread the shining road,
Paved with thy gold, and seek my God.
While thy soft feath'ry cloudlets stray,
Like focks, along the milky way
And the sweet light is gently rolled
Along the hills in showers of gold
While tree tops wave their silver spray,
And moonbeams in the valleys lay,
Aud beauty wings its angel fight
Along the groves OF summer night;
Let the thoughts mount to Him whose hand
Rolled thro' the heaven their shining ban
And musing praises, turn the while,
To Him whose veil is natures smile.
