An Infants Prayer.

A little child, being very weakly in
body, was ordered fresh egg every
morning. On one occasion the sup
ply of country eggs being exhausted,
his mother said:
There is no egg for Georgy this
morning"
The little child paused, and looking
up, said:
Lord Georgy; negg' negg.
Amen"
The mother in establishment said:
"Well, we shall surely have an egg
to-day, no matter where it comes
from"
No more was thought of the matter
until the mother in the course of the
day called at the butcher s to purchase
some meat, not imagining for a mo-
ment that the prayer of her infant
boy would be SO markedly answered.
The butcher said to her; .s.r
=" Ma am, would you be offended if
/ were to send up lovely fresh egg
for the baby! 1t is just laid and l
thought, as he is delicate, he might
like it."
He had never done anything like
this before, nor has he ever done it
sinee neither was he aware of the
fact that the child really needed the
egg. Did not the Lord put it into
his heart to think on the child, in
order that the infants prayer might
be answered, and the unbelief of the
older hearts might be rebuked Oh j..
for more artless, childlike confidence
in him who is the hearer, the answer
er, and the lover of believing prayer.
+ The flock is not so large that any
one of his sheep can escape his notice.
HE calleth his own sheep by name"
Often those whom he has the least
reason to love he thinks of the most.
When the flock is all folded one lamb
is missed, and the affectionate heart
of the Good Shepherd knows no rest
till he has gone into the wilderness
and found that which was lost. And
when he has found it he layeth it on
his shoulders, rejoicing over it more
than the ninety and nine which went
not astray. No, my brother, you can
not get SO far from Christ as to be be-
You'd his personal interest in your wei
fare, you can not live SO near to him
that you will be unnoticed in the
countless throng that ceases not to
exalt the Lamb. Christ loves you
loves you with regard as true and
particular as though all his redemp-
tive work had been wrought for you
alone.
Our fathers believed in special an
swers to prayer, They were not stun
bled by the objection about the infex-
Utility of the laws of nature; because
they had the idea that, when the Crea-
tor of the world promised to answer
human prayers he probably under
stood the laws of nature as well as
they did. AT any rate, the laws of ma
ture were his affair, aad not theirs.
They were men very apt, as the Duke
of Wellington said, to look to their
marching orders" which, being found
to read /" Be careful for nothing, but
in everything by prayer and supplica-
tion with thanksgiving let your re-
quests be made known unto God,
they did it. "They looked unto him,
and were lightened, and their faces
were not ashamed t

A Mothers Words.

A youth of eighteen or nineteen
years sat at an open window look
of painful perplexity on his face,
caused apparently by letter he held
in his hand. After sitting thus for
some minutes he muttered to himself,
Eyes, must go; if 1 don't Brown and
Smith will be laughing at me, and
calling me righteous overmuch; and,
after all, there's no great harm in it,
for I'll go to church in the morning,
and it's only to be sail down the
river, and spend the day in the eoun-
try" Still, he pressed his hand on
his forehead for an instant, then rising
hastily he said, There is no use
bothering about it; Unjust 60"
As he rose his eye lighted on the
setting sun, and as he did so his whole
expression changed; a sweet yet half
sad look played on his face-his
thoughts were Observation-Disclosures
scene was before his eyes, The dark
street had disappeared, and in its
stead neat country cottage had risen.
In thought he was there; once more
he saw the hills that rose near that
cottage home once more the blue
waters of the distant lake glistened
before him; once more he sat in the
cottage garden with his widowed
mother, and watched the setting sun.
Once more that mothers words
sounded in his ears-"John, don't for
get your God and he'll not forget YOU.
Remember the Sabbath day to keep it
holy Though sinners entice thee to
break it, consent thou not. o when
you're tempted to do wrong don't for
get to pray Never let the sun go
down ON a prayerless day. May the
God of the fatherless guide you; may
the Lord Jesus be your Savior "
Yes, six months had passed since he
heard these words, and yet they SEEM
ed to sound in his ears. Tears filled
his eyes, and rising he folded his
hands and kneeled in prayer. Then
taking up his pen he wrote thus:
Thanks, Brown, for your invita-
ton, but can not accept it. My duty
to God is to obey his commands; and
he hath said, Remember the Sabbath
day to keep it holy Spending the
day in idle pleasure is not doing this,
and / wish you would think over the
subject and not go yourself"
How great is the influence of a pi-
Gus mothers words How wonderful
the answers to her earnest prayers =
