the world could not buy you friend, nor

push away another, or if we hold aloof from
one for petty jealousies or needless slight or
roughness. Would you throw away dia,

A Quaker Wedding.

| A Philadelphia correspondent of the Chi
cago Times furnishes the following
It took place on Thursday morning at the
regular weekly meeting. My friend, who
invited me to accompany him, and myself
entered the meeting house at ten o'clock,
and it was nearly filled. Shortly after, five
young ladies', dressed in white with sweep
ing trains, jaunty gypsy hats, each with an
escort in full evening dress, entered, and
took reserved seats. Then came the par
ents of the contracting parties. Lastly the
bride and the groom the bride sweet
looking girl. wore a white silk dress, bon
net and veil
After their entrance. the congregation
"settled into quiet" which lasted about
twenty minutes Then the pair rose, join
ed hands, and the young man said "ln
the presence OF the Lord and this assembly,
I take thee-to be my wife, promising,
with divine assistance, to be loving and
faithful husband until it shall please the
Lord by death to separate US" The young
woman in like manner promised to be a
glowing and faithful wife," etc.
Shortly after, an elderly lady appeared
in supplication." Her prayer was very
beautiful, and to me it seemed more appro-
pirate than the sermon which followed it
from young man, on the uncertainty of
life and approaching judgment. The SER
mon ended table with the marriage cir
tifcate upon it was placed before the newly
married couple, which they both signed
the lady taking her husbands name. This
certificate was then read by the clerk of the
meeting, and those present requested to
sign it. The bridal party then passed out,
and the meeting adjourned
I forgot to say that these same young peo-
pie had appeared at a meeting held month
before, and declared their intention Of mar
riage. The matter had been in the hands
of TWO committees to ''ascertain if both par
ties were clear of other engagements. They
reported favorably, and the marriage could
60 on. This is called ''passing meeting"
We arc not SO particular in the West as to
"other engagements" If we were, think
you divorces would not be fewer in num-

Beautiful Experiment with
Lirht.

Choose a room where the sun shines in
throug b the window, and then block out all
the light, by means Of shutter or other
wise, taking care that all cracks are stopped
Then cut hole about six inches square in
the shutter, and stop the hole with two OF
three thicknesses of rich deep blue or blush
purple glass A broad beam of deep blue
or purple light from the sun will thus stream
down into the otherwise dark. Then hold
in the deep blue light bottle or other arti-
ole made of uranium glass. Ornamental
bottles made of this glass, which is some
times called "canary" glass, because of its
light yellow color, are commonly on sale at
chemists shops. They are plentifully made
to hold smelling salts, and may cost from
sixpence to three shillings each. The blue
light should be deep and not very brilliant
When the uranium glass bottle is held in it,
the bottle will appear to glow with great
beauty, with all the brilliancy of a glow
worm, as if white hot.

IGNORANCE OF FUTUR1TY BLESSING.
You know as much as is good for you. For
it is with the mind as it is with the senses
A greater degree of hearing would terrify
us. If we saw things microscopically we
should he afraid to move. Thus our
knowledge is suited to our situation and
circumstances. Were we informed before
hand of the good things provided for us by
Providence, from that moment we should
cease to enjoy the blessings we possess, be-
come indifferent to present duties and be
filled with restless Impotence. Or suppose
the things foreknown were gloomy and ad-
verse, what dismay and despondency would
be the consequence Of the discovery! And
how many times should we suffer in imag.

Poetry.
From Old and New
Unto Thee.

When all the world seems nothing worth
And hope and pleasure fade and flee;
When all is doubt upon the earth,
And all is darkness on the sea,
Where should come but unto Thee
o God ! who keepest me?
This burning soul, so long depressed,
That longs to pour itself and weep,
And on some kind supporting breast
To sigh and sob itself to sleep
Where should bring, but unto Thee
@ God d! who heareth me?
7 These lettering bonds of toll ard care,
Which makes the sinking spirit faint;
This load which seems too much to BEAR
This trembling gush of deep complaint
Where should bring, but unto Thee,
God who pitiest me?
This heart that mourns his death above,
That aches with hungry emptiness, I,
That these poor husks Of earthly love
Have failed to satisfy or bless
Where should bring, but unto Thee,
. God who lowest me?
OFFEND beyond all other friends
0 love beyond all other love!
Thy peace into my heart descends;
My heart beats calmly as doves,
When all my woes l bring to Thee,
y God who nearest me. 5d
