SnnPe Moments.

"Spare moments are the gold dust OF
/ time" When Queen Elizabeth lay
upon her dying bed, she cried, in the
! deepest sorrow and anguish, "Mil-
/ lions of money would L give for an
! inch of time.n At that moment any
who would have Offered her gold, dia-
mOnds, or power, more than she ever
before possessed, who would have bore
to her the news of a splendid victory,
or paid the most delicate compliment
would have been thrust aside to make
room for any one who could have pro-
lOnged, even for an hour, the life of
the dying Queen. Time is n priceless
gift of God to weak humanity. We
are placed i'm this world for a purpose,
and time is given to lis to fulfill our
allotted task. If we act in unison with
the Almighty, we find that not one
moment need be unemployed. The
service of God, the improvement of
our talent, and the bestOwal of charity
upon those less favored than our
selves, will fill up every inch of time.
As the minute PARTICLES of which gold
dust is composed glitter i'm the light of
the sun, so shall the apparently insig-
nificant actions which OCCUPY but Il
moment, brighten the page of our
lives, when the powerful light of the
dissOlving elements shall expose it to
the scrutiny of the All seeing Judge.
In view of such Il time should We not
gather up the fragments, the minutes
aye, the seconds d? As short time
will suffice To say that which may
save another from committing sin rs
would be occupied in mOmentarily
gratifying ourselves. We cannot cal
culate the ultimate value of hours and
minutes, but we know that, rs gold
dust carefully gathered becomes valu-
able, so we may expect To become
happy reapers of an Invaluable treas
ure harvest, if We faithfully garner
and cluster times golden fragments.

Strict Adherence 70 Orders.

Old Captain Tarter, who was COM
mander of the Betsy, many years ago
in the Pacific, was a most uncomfOrt-
able man, who governed his subor-
dinates on the knOck-dOwn-and-drag-
Out-system.
He was was even more hated by
his officers than by Jack in the fore
castle.
One day he and his second mate
had been at high words, and after the
storm had blown over, the "old man"
was going below, as was his regular
custom for an afternoon nap.
"BrownW he called to IN officer,

Sing Away Your Grief.

Henry Ward Beecher gives the fol-
lowing excellent advice:
We can sing away our cares easier
than We can reason them away. The
birds are the earliest tO sing in the
morning the birds are more without
care than any thing else know Of
Sing in the evening. Singing is the
last thing the robins do. When they
have done their daily wOrk-they
have flown their flight, and picked up
their last mOrsel of food, and cleans
ed their bills on a napkin of n bOugh,
then on a top tWig they sing one song
for it, They dream music, for some
times in the night they break forth
in singing, and stop suddenly after
the first note, startled by their own
voice. o, that we might sing eve
ming and morning and let song touch
song all the way through. As was
returning from the country the other
evening, between six and seven
O'Clock, bearing basket of flowers, /
met a man that was apparently the
tender of a mason. He looked brick
and mortar all over. He had worked
the entire day, and had the appear
ance Ofa man that would not be afraid
of work. He was walking on with a
light step, and singing himself as he
passed down streets, though he had
been working the whole day and near
ly the whole week. Were it not that
my thoughts came too late, should
have given him a large allotment of
my flowers. IL he had not been out of
my sight when the idea occurred to
me, should have hailed him and
said; "Have you worked all day ,"
"Of course l have" he would have
said. "Are you singing?' "Of course
| am" ''Then take these flowers
home and give them to your wife, and
tell her what blessing she has i'm
you" 'Iaaisf
o, that we could put songs under
our burdens! o, that We could extract
the sense OF sorrow by sOngI Then
these things would not poison so
much. Sing in the house. Teach
your children to sing. When troubles
come, go to them with songs. When
griefs arrive, sing them down. Lift
the voice Of praise against cares.
Praise God by singing; that will lift
YOU above trials of every sort. At
tempt it. They sing i'm heaven; and
among Gods people upon earth, song
is the appropriate language of Chris
