Too Old for Sunday School.


Walter Burns was fifteen years old. lie
had been blessed with a good home, aud
though early deprived by death Of a mothers
love and care, his father had watched over
him and given him counsel as only Christ
ian father can. Walter had been for several
years member of a Sabbath school class, in
which were eight or ten boys, about the same
age. As these boys had reached their thir-
teenth or fourteenth birthdays, they had be-
gun to feel, as many others, before and since
felt, too old to attend the Sabbath-school, anc
had dropped off, one by one, until now but
three were left.
Walter had hesitated to adopt the views
of his classmates, knowing his fathers feel
ings. and wishing to please him, who had al
ways been one of the kindest Of fathers; but
at last he decided that he was too much Of 0
man to remain longer in place which hi
thought only fit for children.
4" Father" said he, one Sabbath morning
" all the boys have left our Sunday schoo
class. They think they are too old to be ii
it. Only two or three Of them are there now
and have concluded that | shall leave too,
Mr.. burns looked at his sons face a mo
ment and then said, sadly Walter, there
are some things of which have never spoker
TO you, because there has never yet seemed {
reason for it, The time has come when
ought to speak.
-" When you were three years old you los
dear mother You have never known how
great is such loss. Among your dear moth
ers last words was the request that as soon az
YOU were old enough, would place you il
the Sunday school and she said it was he
prayer for her little boy, who would soon b.
motherless, that he might continue schola
in it till he should learn to love the Saviour
and be prepared if it became his duty, to be
come teacher.
" | need not tell you what my wishes an
prayers, since then, have been in this respect
And now my son says he feels too old to rS
main longer in the Sunday school, though h
has not yet found Christ"
Walter saw the tears gathering in his Ii
theirs eyes, and he turned away. Nothin
more was said about leaving. Walter r.
f membered his mothers dying wish and Ii
: earnest longings of his praying father, and
Q length he was led to the cross, and his hea
was illed with the love and peace OF 10
. given soul.
He is a man now, an active Christian, al

The Drunkard's Dying Child.
BY REV. JAS. 4. DUNN.

BY REV. JAS. A. DUNN.
Mrs. B. sat near a scanty pallet, on
which was extended the suffering little Fred
dy, her bright and beautiful boy, reduced to
skin aud bone. His large mysterious eyes
were turned upward, watching the fitting of
leaves and the iaments Of sunshine that
peered through the foliage of the multcauus
An infant about a month old, meagre, weary
Of its existence, lay on her bosom, and she in
vain trying to charm it to repose.
" Mamma" said Freddy, reaching out his
waxen hand, take me to your BOSOM"
" Yes, love, as soon as Maria is asleep"
Mamma, if God had not sent US that lit
tie cross baby, you could love me, and nurse
me as you did when | was sick in Cincinnati.
My throat is hot, mamma | wish | had a
drink in tumbler, glass tumbler, glass tum-
bier, mamma, and could look through it"
Dear you shall have tumbler," cried
Mrs. B, her lip quiyering with emotion,
and a wild lightin her eyes,
" Yes, mamma, one cold drink in tum-
bier, and your poor little Freddy would fly
up, up there where that little bird sits. Will
papa come tonight and get us bread You
said he would. win he get me tumbler OF
water2 No, mamma he will be drunk. Nobody
ever gets drunk in heaven, mamma, mammap
No, no, my son, my angel
No one says cross words, mammal"
"No, bless your sweet tongue"
And there is nice cold water there, and
silver cups 2'
"Oh, yes, my child fountain of living
water ~
And it never gets dark there ?"
Never, never, and tears fell in stream
down the mothers pale checks.
"And nobody gets sick and dies ?"
"No, my love"
If they were to, God would let the angel
bring them water, know He would, from tn
big fountain. Oh, mamma, don't cry. ID
people cry in heaven ?"
ooh, no, sweet one God wipes away al
tears" replied the weeping mother.
Z" And the angels kiss them of, sposC
But tell me, mamma, will he come there ?"
"Who, my soni'
"You know, mamma-papa."
"Hush, Freddy, dear, lie still you worr
yourself"
"Oh, my throat Dear me, if l only ha
| a little water in tumbler, mamma, just
mouthful."
"You shall have it !" and as the moth'
said this, the poor child passed away into th
{ arms Of Him who shall eyermore give it
the bright waters of everlasting life.

things is inovitabe2 III go and see Ogilvie

And he clapped on his hat, and straight
way went.
II was nearly twilight Of cold December
day when he entered Mr.. Ogilvie's parlor.
The furniture was shabby aud matched with
dust, the torn curtains hung drearily from
their hooks, and an ashy fire was smouldering
in the CRATE, while Oglvie himself in faded
dressng-gown, sat in an easy chair smoking
a cheap cigar.

" Yes, she's that, and she's nothing else"
groaned poor Ogilvie.

thing, with no particular taste for the meta
physics or transcendetal theories. Now
would you advise me to make an intellectual

and added
My wife shines in society--tbis is our
homel"
And Alexander Verdon took his leave,
fully cured Of the ambition to have his little
Cathie like Mrs. Ogilve.
Catherine" he said, somewhat sheepishly,
as he once more came to the little table where
she was drowsily cutting the selfsame leaves,
" you have consulted my wishes in one thing
will you consult them in another ?"
Yes, Alec"
Leave off trying to become Madame de
Steal and be my own little Cathie once more"
The bright color flushed to her temples.
But thought you wanted an Intellectual
wife, Alec"
"My dear, fanced that l did but am
entirely convinced now that have been an
egregious fool
Which was so very unprecedented decla-
ration for Mr.. Alexander Verdon to make,
that we think his wife was entirely justified
in acceding to his new propositson. And so
the little household fairy came back to his
hearthstone once more, and the shirts and
dinners are nearer perfection than ever. But
Catherine has learned one lesson she has
become companion to her husband in the
highest sense Of the word, and can read and
talk almost as well as she keeps house.

Ex-PREsIDENT JOHNSON has settled down
quietly into the position of a private citizen
in Tennessee. A local paper says that he
saved most of his salary while president aad
is now very well off for his section. Some
time before he retired from the White house
he bought fine farm of 250 acres, on which
he has erected Touring mill, and he has
lately bought large brick block in Green
vile, and is credited with the purpose of
starting bank, which is much needed by the
people. The ex-presdent now spends most
Of his time in reading and writing and it is
believed that he is about publishing book
which shall be a defence Of his administra-
ton. He has many visitors from distance
and during court week his house is flled by
the people from the surrounding country, who
consider Mr.. johnson to be the greatest man
in the country Mrs. Stover, one Of Mr..
Johnson's daughters, who helped him do the
honors of the White House, is married again,
and is now the plain Mrs. Brown, and Mrs.
Patterson, with her husband, lives on the ex-
presidents farm, mentioned above. If Mr..
johnson has any intention of entering politi-
cal life again, it is not now evident, and quite
likely he is undecided himself.

VERMONT IN FGCuoN.-The New York
Sun says that among the passengers who
sailed on the St. Laurent, for Europe, on Sat-
urdaY, April 30th were Rose and Blanche"
twin daughters of the late Nathaniel Niles,
and known as the heroines in Eugene Sues
" Wandering jew" Miss Lizzie Niles goes
to Paris, where she is to be married to M I.
Cerrute, late Italian Minister in Washington.
By their fathers death they come into pos
session of the "casket" of Diamonds, Of
which a thrilling history is given in that nov
ell The casket was presented to their moth
er by the Empress Josephine, and is actually
worth only $4,000, although represented by
Mr.. Sue as being worth S30,000,000.
Their father, Nathaniel Niles, was q native
of Vermont. He held several Offices under
the General Government. He was Secretary
of Legation to the French mission in 1889,
and Charge d'Affairs to Sardinia in 1S48.-
He subsequently came to Vermont, aud re-
sided at West Fairlee. He was member
of the Legislature, Speaker Of the House Of
Representatives, member of the Council Of
Censors, and of the Governor Council, Judge
Of the Supreme Court, member Of Congress,
and six times an Elector of President and

D-As Brigham Young grows older,w more
wives and children, and the latter reaching
the age when dress is naturally prominent
matter with them the persstency with which
he denounces the fashions Of the Gentle world
demonstrates the fact that he feels one Of the
burdens which must inevitably come with such
large family In his last sermon before the
Conference his instructions to the Saints were
decided in tone. He classed the entire range
of fashions as devices of the wicked, bonnets,
dresses, boots, and parasols, all to be scon-
demned by those of the true faith and when
he asked the ladies to signify their determine
tion to make their own clothes, and not
to make them in the fashion, the Tabern-
Gle was white with uprased hands. If Brig
ham Young can array the entire female popu-
laton of his dominion in opposition to the
fashions as they receive them from the East, he
will accomplish greater feat than he did in
planting the barren soil of Utah and building
up a colony there. For his opposition is not to
fashions as they exist at present, but to fash
ions at all and in attacking the right Of wo-
man to change the size of her bonnet or the
length of her skirt, he impeaches one of her
most inalienabe privileges.

MornER.-Lamartine tells a story that ex-
quisitely illustrates mothers love in
some spring freshet river widely washed
its shores and rent away bough whereon a
bird had built cottage for her summer home.
Down the white and whirling stream driited
tho green branch, its wicker cup OF unfedged
song, and huttering beside it as it went, the
mother bird. Unheeding the roaring river,
on she went, her cries Of agony and fear
piercing the pauses in the storm. How like
the love Of the old fashioned mother, who fol-
lowed the dove she had plucked from her
heart all over the world. Swept away BY
passion that child might be, it mattered not,
though he was bearing away with him the
fragrance Of the shattered root.tree, yet that
mother was with him, Ruth through oil this
life and Rachel at his death.
