An Old Mans Dream.

Beside a stream whose LIQUID beam
Was caroling and shining,
AS dewy blades and azure flowers
Harmoniously were twining;
An old man sat, and needed not
The bliss below-above him;
But sighed that in lovely spot
No heart was there to love him
From bower and tree the bird and bee
Flew happy over singing,
While from tower across the lea,
A marriage bell was ringing.
The old man wended to the place,
And met the people leaving;
He looked upon each sunny face,
And stayed awhile his dreaming
But as they left, again bereft
OF joy, he looked above him,
And sighed, though all the sky was blue,
That there was mono to love him.
Again he sought the wildwood stream,
And rested, sad and weary,
Upon its mossy bank, to dream
A vision bright and CHEEKY.
He seemed to rove land of love,
Where lute-toned bells were ringing,
And decked with jeweled light was one,
Whose speech was more than singing.
Oh, she was memory's morning light,
That beamed on earth above him;
He slumbered. woke, and found that high
God, Heaven, and her love to him.

Heart HYMN.

Bear the burden of the present,
Let the morrow bear its own;
If the morning sky be pleasant,
Why the coming night bemoan?
If the darkened heavens lower.
Wrap thy cloak around thy form,
Though the tempest rise in power,
God is mightier than the storm.
Steadfast hope and faith mistaken
Animate the trusting breast,
Step by step the journeys taken,
Nearer to the land of rest.
All unseen, the Master walketh
3y the toiling servants side;
Comfortable words he talleth
While His hands uphold and guide.
Grief, nor pain, nor any sorrow
Rends thy heart, to Him unknown
He to- day, and He tomorrow,
Grace sufficient gives his own.
Holy striyings nerve and strengthen,
Long endurance wins the crown;
When the evening shadows lengthen
Thou shalt lay thee gently down.

The Good That One Tract Did.

'How it rains | | think | will not go out with
nv tracts this afternoon, said gentleman to
himself one wet Sabbath. Then, retiring from
the window, he threw his bundle of tracts upon
the table, and yawning dropped into his easy
chair.
There he sat idly musing while the sacred
hours fed BY and by his little daughter came
in from Sunday school. Seeing his bundle OF
tracts on the table, she said
"Why pa, haven't you been with your
tracks?''
no. my dear"
care you going with them, pa?
''Not to-day, my dear. 1t is so rely wet.
80, pa, let me go with them I've got my
bonnet on, and can soon take them round"
mo, no It's too wet for any one to go out.
We must stop at home, my dear. "
Il won't get wet, pa. I'll take the big UNI
brea The people will want their tracts. DO
please let me go, pa,
These and similar pleas conquered the re-
luctant father. The little girl started. She
knew the district, and was soon at her blessed
work. A few steps led her to large old house
with big knocker. She raped again and "a
gain, but no one replied. The poor child s
patience was almost exhausted, when she heard
4 sound In the house. Another knock, and the
door was opened by a woman who were good
dress but whose face, the little girl thought,
looked very unhappy. The child smiled upon
her, gave her tract, finished her round, and
went home, little thinking BY her walk IN the
rain that afternoon she had snatched a soul
from the jaws OF death.
And yet it was even so for the woman at
whose door she had waited 50 long was in the
act of hanging herself when the child first lift
ed knocker. The rope was fastened to the
high post of an old fashioned bed-stead, the
moose was round her neck and she was about
to launch the guilty soul headlong into eternity.
The knock disturbed her. She waited no long
er. 1t came again and again, until to get rid
of the annoyance, she slipped the rope over her
head and went to see who might be the dis,
turber. The loving took of the child dlsarmed
her anger. She took the tract read It, was con
victed. led TO Christ and the next Sabbath
told her joyful story to the little girls father.
Thus did little girl s hand armed with a
tract, pluck brand from the burning, and save
a soul from everlasting DEATH

Grass is fresh with the watering Of tears shad-
