1t will be pleasing news to all
the friends Of Foreign Missions to
learn that the American Board has
closed its financial year with only
the small debt of 81 1000, notwith-

larger. D'i.

Success.

Success in life is rarer far than it
would be if the world knew what it
really is. The majority of men and
women, under the light Of our best
civilization even, do not understand
the true meaning of the term. For
the same reason many are credited
with the acquisition who are entire
ly without it. In the same way So
ciety generally fails to recognize
this prize, though it be of the most
solid and genuine character. The
achievement of the greatest personal
happiness, though ever made the
standard of success, seldom he
comes reality. Many, it is true,
areiled away from the pursuit of
that which in early life was their
glowing and noble ideal. But the
most set up false shrine, and real
ize only its falsity at lifes close. With
some the massing of wealth consti-
tutes success. To such, every breath
is in vain that does not prove gol-
den inspiration. Life is one grand
stock board; home, friends, society,".
education, all figure only upon it as
profit and loss. .s - -.ss1.s
With others, letters of science is
the fascinating ambition. Domes
tic happiness, friendships,and health
are sacrificed to the one, but incom-
plete idea. And so'the list of life
blunders succeeds. e.
When men shall have learned that
money is not round in the ladder
to success, only a side support; that
social position and erudition are
not goals, but mile-stones, they will
idealize better and realize more.
; When ladies shall have turned
their day-dreaming into solid cul-
ture and sublime effort for the
worlds best good, and shall have
buried style, fashion, gentility, and
the baubles of life in a common
grave, and developed a vigorous
body, full mind, and good heart,
welded in symmetrical harmony,
ever learning, ever growing, they
will know the secret of success.
Success in life thus becomes the
chief end of man.-Philadelphia

Troubles.

Some Good Christians have a
great deal of trouble in this world.
The reason of it is that God is pre-
pairing them for very great happi-
ness in heaven.
Last Summer when in the City OF
Amsterdam, in Holland, / was very
much interested in a visit we made
TO 9 place there famous for polish
ing diamonds. We saw the men as
they were engaged in this work.
When a diamond is first found, IL
has rouh, dark outside, and LOOKS
lust like a common pebble. Inc
outside must be ground on and the
diamond be polished before it is fit
for use. It takes a long time to do
this, and it is very hard work. The
diamond has to be fixed very firmly
in the end of a piece of hard wood
or metal. Then it is held close to
the surface of a large metal wheel
which is kept going round. Fine
diamond-dust is put on this wheel
because nothing else is hard enough
TO polish the diamond. And this
work is kept on for days, and weeks,
and months, and sometimes for sew
eral years before it is finished. And
if a diamond is intended to be used
in the crown of king, then longer
time and greater pains are spent up
on it, SO as to make il, look as brill
liant and beautiful as can be.
Now, Jesus calls his people his
Jewels. He intends them to shine
Jewels in the crown he will wear in
heaven. To fit them for this they
must be polished like the diamond.
Z And God makes use OF the troub-
les he sends on his people in this
world to polish his jewels. And
when we get to heaven and see how
beautiful they look, we shall see
that it was indeed good for them
that they were troubled. 1t has fit.
ted them for greater happiness there.

The efficacy of Hostetter's Celebrated

the enfeebled body and cheering the des-

venerable physician of New York. 1.-The
Bitters are the purest stimulant and the
safest tonic we have. But the uses of the
great vegetable antidote are much more
comprehensive than such praise would i'm
ply. As preparatory aHtidote to epidemic
disease, genial stimulant, a promoter of
constitutional vigor, an appetizer, q stom-
aehic, and remedy for nervous debility, no
medicinal preparation has ever attained the
reputation of Hostetter's Bitters. 1t is the
household tonic of the American people,
and in all human probability will be so for
centuries to come. The magnates Of science
recognize its merits; and that it is emphati-
cally the medicine of the masses, is proved
by its vast and ever increasing sales.
