A Child's Question.

One Sabbath evening the father of two
title Oh ldren had placed one of them OH
each knee, to ask them what they had
heard in the iniant-school that day. He
was not professor Of religion, although
he had a pious wife. The little children
began to tell him, in their own way, Of the
heant;f,l home in heaven that Jesus had
left because of his love to men. Look
ing full in her fathers face, the little girl
said, "Jesus must have loved us very
much to do that don't you love Him Tor
it. father 2" r ney then went on describing
the trials and suferings of the Saviour,
and she again asked the question, "Dont
vo,, love Him for that, father }" and when
thew smoke of his death on the cross, the
little one asked the third time, "Now,
don't YOU love Him, father ?" The father
had to put the children down, and go
ont of the room to hide his emotion. He
confessed to the speaker afterwards that
he felt worse under the artless question
ing Of his little children than he ever
felt under the most powerful preaching
in his life. He soon afterwards united
with the Church of God. Does father
love Jesus? Can you ask him Do you

Do You show by your life that you love

how he toiled as carpenter for years
Think upon his rejection by his own

how he went hungry and cold; How he

of his bufIs,ings. The cruel nails which

A TauE Story OF FArrH.-One

A True STORY OF + fAITH.-On0
bright afl ernoon last summer two ilt'le
bows of my acquaintance started forln Tor
a ramble in the green fields. Iney
amused themselves for a time with
nice new chain which had been gwen to
one of the boys, not long before, by his
father. But after while their attention
was attracted in other ways; the ripe, req
berries. the nimbe squirrels, the gay but
perflies. all i'll turn absorbed their little
minds, and the new chain was lett Tor
gotten upon the ground. AT length both
Freddy and Weston became tired OF play
ing, and began to think about home,
mother, and supper, and they remember
ed the chain,. also and began to wonder
where they could have dropped IT..
Th,y looked about eagerly for while,
but the chain was nowhere to be found.
Finally said little Weston," Let's pray,
Freddy, and perhaps that will help us
to fnd the chain" So these little boys
kneeled down and repeated the Lords
Prayer, word for word, with the rather
indistinct assurance that by so doing they
should obtain help from above.
They rose from their knees, and be-
gan to search more diligently, but all to
no purpose. They bega'. to feel about
discouraged, when little Freddy, who
had kept up constant thinking, said;
"Look here Weston, that wasn't the way
to pray; we must pray for what we want:
if we want God to help us find the chain
we must ask Him to-" So they both
kneeled down once more, and their little
trusting hearts went up to God in a sim
pie, earnest prayer that He would hell
them to find their missing treasure.
And then they again commenced 'hei
search. They had gone but short dis
,ance when the lost plaything was see.
shining brightly III the green grass.
They seized it eagerly, and ran hom'
