Few of the great preachers OF the
country are so felicitous in Illustrating
their subjects with appropriate anecdotes
as the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher. And
like all men of genuine humer, he has
the knack to say very droll things with a
face of the most impassive gravity. AT
the National Christian Convention held
last year in this city he was called upon
to address that body on "Ilow to Conduct
Prayer Meetings" and for an hour held
the audience with u mingling OF fun ana
pathos and sentiment and wisdom such as
one but seldom enjoys. After the ad-
iournment of the morning session about
fifty men-mostly young, and identified
with the hardest of Christian work in the
most unpromising fields ds-gathered about
him, in order to wrest from him the
secret of his success. The results were
too valuable to pass without enduring
record. The questioning lasted nearly an
hour and half. During that time Mr..
Beecher was in the centre Of densely
packed crowd, and not given moments
rest. The questions were sometimes
rambling, but nearly all tended to un'
cover an inward experience that others
beside those then present would be giad
to see. Omitting, ofcourse. many lh'nss'
the questions and answers were very
nearly rs follows:
"Mr. Beecher. what do you do with
bores in your prayer mcctings'"
"Wcll, try to be patient with them'
Christ. when he was on earth, was
troubled with bores, and / say TO myself,
Why should not be- Itry to educate
them, and try to make something OF
lhem. The man who is bore now may
become an efficient worker if one is only
patient" ee 2a
.Well, but Mr.. Beeecher'-it was Mr..
Moody that interrupted, as ono might
almost know from the character OF the
ouestiou-"there are confirmed bores,

and If you let them 60 on they will smash
a prayer meeting all TO pieces; what do
you do with them!"
III never have and never will allow any
one to smash prayer meeting. If I
cannot bring about n reformation by
privately talking TO him, If no other
means will answer. can say to such
man, SIT down. But then, there are
many ways TO be tried first. IL see =
man is apt to talk in set phrase and con-
tinually repeat, interrupt him with a
question. A question is an obstruction
in bis track. He will have to get over
it, or 60 around it, come TO astand-still.
| ask him about his own experience in
relation to what he is talking about, and
in such conversation there is no chance

"Do you make special preparation for
prayer meeting?"
"Yes. That is, always have subject
ia my mind that want to present. Some
times it is adhered to by others, and
sometimes it is not. When it Is not,
never try to bring it back, but | try to
develope the thought that comes out the
most prominently. | try to find out as
quick as possible the leadings of the Holy
Spirit. and then follow them"

authority in prayer meetings ofthe nature

II had one man once that used 10

here Mr.. Beecher. impersonated him to

THE GRACE OF GOD.
BY JosEPHISE POLLARD.

might have been the vilest OF the vile,
Insensible to good;
walking amid corruption, with smile
OF careless hardihOod.
That am conscious Of my sins, and seek
To do his will below,
Does not my greater purity bespeak,
But proves how much owe
Unto the Grace of God.
1t nigh, have been my lot to breathe the air
Upon heathen shore;
In al their guilt and ignorance to share,
Their idols 10 adore
That am living in christian land
Where heavenly seed is sown,
And cheering harves,s ripened meath the hand
know Is due alone
Unto the Grace Of God.
II am spared, when others suffer sore,
In agony and pain;
II they are stricken in the hearts deep core,
While in peace remain;
Thou knowest no merit OF my own, o God,
Entities me 70 bliss
And ii any shoulders fail to feel the rod,
Truly owe all this
Unto the Grace Of God.
What am /, but sinner at The best
With feet prone 20 slip,
That only grace their ruin could arrest
And give them guardianship
Ny ways arc full of folly, and know
Nv aims are few, and small
And if I reach TO heavenly joys, I'll owe,
Truly. III owe il sll
Unto the GTace Of Col.
