The Clock Of life .

to tell the hour by o'clock, paid to
him: "There is another clock-the
clock of life. mean,'f said he, the
beating of your pulse, FOR it may often
remind. you of tho valve of time, and
the necessity Of turning it to good
account. Time is worth more than
the finest gold"
"My pulse is the clock OF liie h..
ltshOws how minutes are flying,
It marks the departure of time.
And tells me how fas; I am dying"
He who lives day with out doing
good lpoges day; and he who makes
another happy, is sure to be all the
happier for it himself

asit beats; remember every beat makes
one less in your life.
You may think it will be a long
time before it will stop beating but
it may stop very suddenly. If God
don't keep it wound up, the clock
will stop at any moment. Very little
disturbance of the running works
would stop it. SO cold, or fever, or
fall, or o blow, or ten thousand in
oidents might happen, would stop the
beating of your heart and pulse. We
ought to observe daily and try TO i'm.
prove the time while it passes.

A warning shake of the head from
her mother was not noticed. She was
in such anguish OF body and soul she
clutched at every chance getting ray

The fathers eye frightened at the
sight of that Bible. Do you know
the reason why? 1t was not because
he loved the precious book.

"But he is here now, dear Maggie,

"But have been such a wicked
child That's what makes me afraid"

and the poor child felt that she could
lay herself low at the feet of such q
Saviour and trust all to him.
Before another sunrise she had left
that,dingy, wretched room, and had
gone, as we hope, to those glorious

4 Remarkable Ease.

A young lady by the name Of Caro-
line Low, ia Clinton, DoKalb county,
ILL.,, over two years ago after washing
windows, was replacing them, when
she struck her hand through the glass,
running several long pieces into her
hand. After several days a physician
was called, and as was supposed, the
glass all extracted. But it appears
not TO hsve been the case. as a large
quantity. was left in her hand, which
soon made its appearance under the

her surgeon. 1t continued spreading

Several years ago. when the Lam
caster Cemetery was Incorporated, Mr.
Stevens purchased two lots, for which
a deed was duly executed. Some
years later, in looking over his papers,
hennoticed, for the first time, the
clause prohibiting the intefment Of
eolored people in the Cemetery. Ho
at once reconveyed the lots TO the
company, with his reasohsand asked
that they be put upon the record. A
short time ago he purchased d. couple
of lots in Woodward Hill Cengeee!y,
and when the deeds were handed to
him ho noticed a similar claise ex-
cluding the burial of people Of color
The brave old man declared that he
could not consent to have his bones
lie in a cemetery where any of Gods
chilren were excluded for no fault of
their own, and he promptly returned
the deeds He then, only few. days
ago, selected lot in HShreiner's
Cemetery" where no such distinction
is made among the dead, and there
will the dust of the Old Commoner
repose--not, we trust, however, until
he has seen the great work Of recon
structlng the negro on an. enduring
basis Of liberty and equal rights,
which he has so long and SO consis-
tentIy labored for, trumphantly con.
summated. History records no in,
stance of sublimer devotion TO princi-
pie than is exhibited in this incident
in the private life of Mr.. Stevens.

1t was narrow, dreary street,
down which the good home missionary
turned his steps, ard the houses on
either side seemed like swarming
rookeries. They had once been re-
spectacle homes for single families,
but that must have been long, long
since. Now the washerwoman piled her
work in what had once been the family
parIor, and away in the damp cellars
ghastly men and women woye rag
carpets or wrought long baskets, or
sorted old bones and rags; while away
up in the garrets poor Sewing.glrls
stitcl ed away to earn a scanty crust.

Casting Ont Devils.

A. Methodist preacher Of a largo
muscular frame and huge hand, with
powerful grip, some years ago was
holding meeting, ut which quite an
interest was awakened. IA number of
persons had come to the anxious seat,
ana some had been converted. A
group, consisting of two or three
young men and as many young ladies,
were present, whose object in coming
was to have merriment The minister
kindly requested them to observe the
decorum befttiDg the place. One Of
them ventured, in a rather uDgra-
cions manner, to reply that they had
understood that miracles were work
cd there, and he had come to sec some
performed. Upon this our robust
friend, the minister, coolly took the
young men by the coat collar, delib'-
eratoly led him down the aisle, and
opening the door, without ceremony
landed him outside, quietly remarking
ave do not work miracles here, but
we cast out devils"
