THEGoLBsN YEAR.
BY ALFRED TENSYSON.

We sleep and wake and sleep, but all thing
move;
The sun flies forward to his brother sun:
The dark earth follows wheeled in her ellipse
And human things returning on themselves
Move onward, leading up the golden year.
All, though the times when some new thought
can bud,
Are but as poets seasons when they flower,
Yet seas that daily gain upon the shore
Have ebb and now conditioning their march,
And slow and sure comes up the golden year.
Then wealth no more shall rest in mounded
heaps,
But swift with freer light shall slowly melt
In many streams to fatten 10 wer lands,
And light shall spread, and man be liker man
Through all the seasons OF the golden year.
Fly, happy, happy sails, and bear the Press,
Fly, happy with the mission of the Cross:
Knit land to land, and blowing heavenward,
With silks, and fruits, and spices clear of toll,
Enrich the markets OF the golden year.
But We grow old. All! when shall all mems
good
Be each mans rule, and universal peace
Life like SHAFT of light across the land,
And like 3 lane of beams athwart the sea,
all the circle of the golden year,

The Family Altar

There are few memories that are
so fresh and powerful in after years,
as the memories of the household
altar. l can travel over the path of
forty years and recall the tones Of
my fathers voice, as he reverently
read the Bible and devoutly prayed,
in the midst of his children, how
faithfully he taught them the lessons
of Christian truth and duty in those
thoughtless days of youth, and I
bless his memory now for what 1 did
not appreciate then. / believe that
the memories of Christian parents
and the early associations Of a
Christian home scarcely ever die
out of the heart. Rev. DR.. Adams,
in his beautiful book on Thanks
giving Memories" gives us the fol-
lowing incident: "In the Cathedral
of Limerick there hangs chime of
bells, which was cast in Italy by an
enthusiast in his trade, who fixed
his home near the monastery where
they were first hung, that he might
daily enjoy their sweet and solemn
music. In some political revolution
the bells were taken away to a dis
tant..land, and their maker. himself
became a refugee and exile. His
wanderings brought him, after many
years, to Ireland. On calm and
beautiful evening, as the vessel
which bore him doated on the placid
bosom of the Shannon, suddenly
the evening chimes pealed from,,the
towers. His practiced ear
caught the sweet sound, and he knew
that his lost treasures were found.
His early home, his old friends, his
beloved native land, all the blessed
associations of his life were in those
sounds. He laid himself back in
the boat, crossed his arms upon his
breast, and listened to the music.
The boat reached the wharf, but
still he lay there, silent and motion
less. They spoke to him, but he did
not answer. They went to him, but
his spirit had fed. The tide of
that came vibrating
through his heart at that well-known
chime, had snapped its strings"
And so, sometimes, in after life,
when the feet of some wayward man
have strayed far away from the home
of his youth and his heart has wan
dered far from his fathers God,
some memory Of the past, like the
sweet, sad melody Of the evening
chime, may wake long slumbering
echoes and stir long-sealed foun-
tains; and fathers counsels and a
mothers prayers will come up again
from the sacred burial places of the
past with wondrous power to melt
md win the wayward heart.-Rer.
DR.. Rogers.

The Grace That Pinches.

The prevailing sin Of the day Is
sell Indulgence. 1t is eating like q
canker into the life of many of our
churches. 1t leaves Christ's minis
ters to address empty pews on un-
pleasant Sundays. 1t robs Christ's
treasury to keep up snowy turn
out If it hangs a bough of pro-
fession over on the church-side of
the dividing wall, yet its roots are
deep down in the soil Of the world.
1t is often ready to deny Christ
but seldom ready to deny self.
The most popular doctrine 70
preach in these times, and the hard
est one to practice, is the old-fash-
ioned apostolic doctrine Of self de-
nial. This is the grace that pinches.
The daily battle Of Christian prin-
ciple is with that artful, subtle,
greedy sinner, self. And the high
est victory Of our religion is to fol-
low Jesus over the ragged path of
self-denial. This is mainly 10 be
done in the little everyday acts of
life. The great occasions that de-
mand sublime sacrifices are few and
rare.
The Christian who suppresses 8
jest or a witticism, because itwould
burlesque his religion, practices self
denial. When he speaks religion,
he practices selfdenial. When he
speaks out a bold but unpopular
word for the right-in fashionable
society"-he is really taking up
cross for his Master. All genuine
acts of philanthropy are born Of the
noble principle to deny self, and to
honor Christ in the persons Of those
for whom Christ suffered.
The mission school teacher who
sallies off through the driving storm
to carry his gospel-loaf to group
of hungry children, is an example
of this. "Why should 1 sit by the
warm fire on my sofa to. dayi Christ
will look for me among my class"
The seamstress who drops her hard
earned dollar into the Memorial
Fund collection, is really enthrons
ing her Saviour above herself.
We cannot emphasize too strong
" this grace which pinches selfish
ness. care not how orthodox is 3
mans creed, or how eloquent may
be his prayers in public, if he has
never learned to say "no" TO the de-
mands of fashion, and pride, and
luxury, he is but sorry specimen
of the Christ's s-man.-Interior.

extravaganza that opened my eyes
little. l told her at the same time
of my embarrassment, and she set
her bright little head to work, and

A Wisconsin wife, the mother Of

A Connecticut paper says that
lawyer hung out his shingle in the
town of Bethel, in that state, but
left after a year, he having had only
one case-that was of inhammatory
rheumatism.
