That evening Walter Gordon came home
at six o'clock, somewhat to his wife's
surprise.
How much greater was her surprise
when he took from his vest pocket two
dollar bill, saying kindly:
CLARA, you must need some money for
household expenses"
ooh, Walter" she said, with tremu-
lous hope at this unwonted action, "can it
be that you"
"That / have reformed2 With Gods
help, think have. Clara / shall try to
make you better husband in the future. ="
There was joy in the humble home of
Walter Gordon that night-the joy of a
wife who had found her husband, and OF
man who had found himself.
When John Glover heard of Walter Cor
don's reformation, he laughed increduously,
and said: 81 shall have him here again
before the week is out"
He was not mistaken. Walter did call
on him before the week was out; but his
errand was to say that he was about to
vacate his present house and move into a
better one, owned by Deacon Holmes.
Three years passed by. AT the end OF
that time Walter Gordon was well, happy
and prosperous, while the landlord had
himself sunk into the drunkard's grave,
which he had prepared for so many others.

silence.

How eloquent is silence Acquiescence,
contradiction, difference, disdain, embar-
rassment, and awe, may all be expressed by
saying nothing. 1t may be necessary; to
illustrate this apparent paradox by q few
examples. DO you seek an assurance of
your lady-love's affections? The fair one
confirms her lovers fondest hopes by a
complete and asserting silence. Should
you hear an assertion, which you may deem
false, made by some one Of whose veracity
polteness:may withhold you from openly
declaring your doubt, you denote differ
ence of opinion by remaining silent. Are
you receiving reprimand from superior?
You mark your respect by attentive silence.
Are you compelled to listen to the friv-
olous conversation of fop? You signify
your opinion of him by treating his To-
quacity with contemptous silence. Are
you in the course Of any negotiations about
to enter upon discussion painful to your
own feelings, and to those who are concern
ed in it? The subject is almost invariably
prefaced by an owkward silence. Silence
has also its utility and advantages. And
first what an invaluable portion of domes-
tic strife might have been prevented, how
often might the quarrel which by mutual
agravation, has, perhaps, terminated in
blood-shed, have been checked in it's COM
mencement by judicious silence Those
persons only who have experienced them
are aware of the beneficial effects of that
forbearance which, to the exasperating
threat the malicious sneer, or the unjustly
imputed culpability, shall never answer
word. Secondly, there are not wanting in
stances where the reputation, fortune,
the happiness, nay the life of a fellow
creature, might be preserved by charit-
able silence.

The Sealed Fountain.

There has been much distress this sum-
mer in many places from wells and brooks
going dry. People have learned what
thing to be grateful for is even the common
blessing of water.
John Foster compares our life to seal
ed up reservoir containing a certain amount
of water. How much is in it, we have no
means of knowing. We must keep con-
stantly using it, and there is no means of
replenishing the supply. Every day the
amount diminishes, and soon it will be
gone.
What solemn thought it is that every
night we are twelve hours nearer eternity
than we were in the morning How can we
put off getting ready for it !? How can we
allow such trifles as occupy us every day to
draw our minds off wholly from this great
concern? What comfort will it be to us,
when the last hour comes, to remember
that we were clad in the finest and most
fashionable raiment, and that we Jared
sumptuously every day, or even that we
were most diligent and studious in our
daily tasks, and took high standing
among our mates, when there lay our Bible
all unread, its teaching unregarded?
Remember this sealed reservoir, and how
fast you are using up its precious contents.
Some of these hold very little more. How
will it be with you when you have quaffed
the last cup? Will you then be sure of
welcome where the blessed +" river Of the
water of life" is flowing forever?

S q DAY BEADING.
Ten Hard Dollars.

"HOSE people who are interested in
Il hard money will perhaps be proGted
by reading the following story from the
Christian Weekly, by DR.. Spaulding
"My father was poor man. A large
and growing family was dependent upon
him for its daily bread. Coming home one
wintry evening from a weeks toll in a
neighboring town with ten hard-earned
dollars in his pocket, he lost them in light
snow. Long and fruitless was the search
and again was the search renewed, with the
same result. The snow fell and melted
again for whole generation, and the story
of the lost dollars was still fresh in our
family circle; for silver dollar to poor
man in those days was larger than full
moon.
"About mile away lived another father
Of a family in similar circumstances. He,
too, knew how much dollar cost dug out
of a rocky farm. At least once or oftener,
every week for forty years he had occasion
to pass our door, giving and receiving the
common neighborly salutations, and
every time with weight increasingly heavy
on his conscience. But all such pressure
has it's limit; and when that is reached the
crash is the greater for the severity of the
strain. In this instance it was as when an
old oak rends its body and breaks its limbs
in falling.
"One day, completely broken down, he
came to my father in tears, confessing 81
found your dollars lost in the snow forty
years ago They have been hard dollars to
me, and can carry them no longer. am
come to return them, and ask your forgive
ness, and as soon as can / will pay you
the interest. y"
"The scene was like that when Jacob
aud Esau met over the ford Jabbok.
"He did nro live long enough to pay the
interest, but quite long enough to furnish q
practical comment on the text: THE spirit
Of a aman will sustain his infirmity but
wounded spirit, who can bearP' Who will
say that conscience, though slumbering in
this life, win never awake 10 punish the Of
fender in the life TO Gomez"
"If any man wants hard money, let him
get it dishonesty, and he will find 1t the
hardest money that he ever saw-hard to
keep, hard to think of, and hard to answer
for in the judgment day.

~It Isn't Catching"

The following little story is told at the ex-
pense of young lady school teacher, not
a thousand mi les from this place, who is
very properly anxious in regard to the pre-
vention Of smallpox in her school, and
therefore strictly enforces the rule that
whenever case of sickness is reported in
the family of any one of her pupils, the
pupil must bring certificate from the
family physician stating that the disease
is not contagious, failing in which the pupil
must remain away until all danger is over.
A few days ago she was Informed that one
of her pupils, little girl, of Teutonic ex-
traction, had sickness in her family. On
being questioned, the little girl admitted
sshe had sick at her house y that her
mother was sick. She was accordingly
sent home. The next day she returned 10
the school and shyly siding up to the teacher,
with her finger in her mouth and her little
bonnet swinging by the strings, she said :
" Miss, we've got little baby at our
house, but mother told me to tell you q
isnt catchiH.
