OUR MISSION.

Some few fair flowers fain would cherish,
Which smile in beauty round my way;
would not let their sweetness perish,
Nor see their opening buds decay.
Some few rich sheaves my hand would gather,
Some precious freight Of golden grain;
Ere chilling winds and cold frosts wither,
And blast the treasures Of the plain.
Some few soft words of kindness spoken,
Some earnest thoughts for others veal;
Some tears, for hearts by sorrow broken,
Some griefS to cheer, some wounds to heal.
Some few low prayers my lips would offer,
Which, like sweet incense, may arise;
The ehastened souls adOring proffer
To the white throne, set in the skies
Thus day by day my work pursuing,
Saviour, Thy pleasure let me do;
Yet well know, with all my doing,
How small my services, and few.
Then will fold my vesture round me,
And lay me down to wait my rest,
Until a kinglY hand hath crowned me,
And drawn me to loving breast.

JOHN HOWE once observed two men in
a violent passion. Their mutual cursing
shocked his religious sensibilities. He
looked at them, raised his hat, and said
in a solemn voice:
81 pray God to bless you both"
This prayer SO impressed the quarrel
some men that they ceased their strife
and thanked Mr.. Howe for his supplica-
ton.
