SUNDAY READING.
The Lord Will Provide.

At some time or other tho Lord will provide;
Il may not be my time,
Ii may not be thy time,
And yet in his own time,
Tho Lord will drovidc.'
Times TO REMEMBER. - Remember,
that our great business in this world is to
prepare to ''get well out of it,"
Remember, that dishonesty never makes
friend but that n dishonest man will no
more trust one of his kind, than an honest
man will trust him.
Remember, that shrouds have no pock-
cts"
Remember, that you can say more
against your neighbor 10y q shrug of the
shoulders, or a significant look, than You
could say by words.
RELIGIOUS CoNvERSATIoN.--Don't at
tempt to preach, only talk, and you viii
find religious conversation much easier
and moro successful matter than most folks
make it. why shouldn't you speak just
a. simply and naturally to your friend
about his relations to the Great-All-Fath-
cr and the Loving Saviour, as about the
weather and the crops What is the use
UfemplOying such looks, tones, ldloms IN
religious conversation, that 1t Is q positive
relioftO you when the disagreeablc task Is
/ done, and YOU can be yourself once more?
TIME no Observation-Disclosures says:
There i= time to laugh. When it comes,
over, il is particularly incumbent on min
listers to set the flock good example in
this respect. 4 merry heart doeth good
like medicine, and is much easier to take.
The minister has no right to wear himself
out by unnecessary friction, when the oil
Of gladnCss j. dropping upon the pastures
from every side To maintain cheerful
ness, even in the face of real difficulty, and
! trouble, is one of the browning gracCs of
! Christianity and the minister, even be-
| youd other men, should seek for it,
/ LIKE JE5Us.-A dear little girl, only six
/ years old, was promised by a friend, who
| kept a number of fowls, some feathers for
/ her dolls hat. The next time the friend
| called she brought with her not only sew
/ eral feathers, butalso come beautiful patch
/ es out of which to make dresses for her
/ doll. When the friend had gone away,
| the little girl, who was very glad and
grateful for her presents, said to her mann
/ ma:
Mamma, do you know what I have
boon thinking ahout?'
No, my dear
| Il have been thinking Mrs. Bell is like
Jesus, for she gave me more than she prom
| iscd.h
Was not that Il sweet saying for 20 young
! Il girl? She had found out that the grace
OF the Lord Jesus is cXccedinly abundant,
and that he give7 to them that trust in him
exceeding abundantly above all they ask
or think.
