boy, who started to run, but was soon over,
taken, and the ugly thing BY winding around
his legs completely stopped his. .locomotlon

Served Him Right.

Welsh peasant wished to dispose Of his
COW, because, though an excellent mixer, she
had unfortunately acquired bad habit. The
COW had a marvellous capacity for opening
gates and entering prohibited places Every
ingenious precaution taken by the owner To
prevent her getting into the corn yard was Of
no avail. The cunning creature would open
the gate and help herself to the oats aud bar
ley, in spite Of all the expedients resorted to
by Davies with view to her exclusion. Davies
at leugih determined to sell his COW. For
this purpose he took her to a Fair, and had
little difficulty in finding purchaser
Another peasant, who had also small
dairy Supported by the produce Of single
COW, was struck with the attractions of the
wicked beauty, aud desired to buy her
Davies had no hesitation in recommending his
COW tor her productive qualities, but, not
withstanding her transcendent virtues, he con.
sented to part with her for ten pounds
The purchaser took the animal short dis.
tance out of the Fair and decorated her
horns with brilliant pair of brass tops,
which. though usually intended to prevent
cattle trsm goring other domestic animals
collected about the homestead, we're on this
occasion evidently put on to improve the
cows appearance Having thus added arti-
hcial ornaments to the natural beauties Of the
animal the purchaser returned with her to
the FAIR. Feeling thirsty, like most Welsh
peasants on Fair day the new owner pro-
ceeded to booth to drink, leaving the cow
under the care Of friend, with full authority
to sell at a certain price
Meanwhile Davies and his wife, happening
to pass, were struck with the resemblance OF
this COW 70 the one they had Just sold.
I" How very like our Dolly" exclaimed Da-
vies to his better half aud Immediately Gu.
deavorod TO bargain with the man who had
charge Of this handsome creature. After a
few minutes negotiation the COW was sold to
Davies for twelve pounds-two pounds more
than the amount for which no had parted
with her that day
Very proud of his new property in live
stock, Davies went home with his COW, but to
his great chagrin, he discovered his delusion
that same evening, while smoking his pipe in
his Cozy chimney corner, for his wife rushed
into the cottage excla ming
Davy, navy, the new COW must be Dolly
herself, because she has just opened the corn
yard gate !"
Next day, with clearer head, the husband
made a closer inspection Of his purchase and
was convinced of his blunder. The brass
tops had done it,

together for our eternal welfare. 1t kept
heaven close by always and when be came
out and went into the field with a smile aud
a quiet word we knew the power Of God in
keeping man from sin. And when one day
he lay down alone by the ash grove, and We
found him with his axe beside him, but his
life gone, that same smile was there that We
had seen SO often at morning prayers, lie
was talking again with his God. 1t is a
constant poem to look back aud remember
how naturally he sowed religion IN our hearts.
Lowing God he loved all that God had made.
He would often 90 around on his way home

The Helping Hand.

sidewalks and shook her head. The pave.
nent is so icy to-day, that think my little
girl will have to give up the walk" "Oh
but I'm going with papa, aud never slip
when have hold of papa's hand said Della,
eagerly. and so mamma consented.
Dear little Della she is learning day by
day what blessed thing i, is to have papa's
strong brave hand to hold her up. But there
is One whose hand is stronger aud teuderer
than that of al earthly father, and when the
way is hard that loving Hand is always
reached to help us. Sometimes we think we
eau walk alone, until, by and by, our feet be-
gin to stumble and slip; but that gentle
Friend is close beside us, and we have only to
put out our hand to have it clasped in His

Father Sewell and the Collection,


He could not help being absent from the
meeting, but his heart was there. His feet
would have carried him down to the chapel
two hours before, only duty forbade. As
soon, however, as he had concluded his busi.
ness, off the old gentleman walked, saying to
himself: I'm afraid shall be too late, but
shall at least sec how they have got on.
The Lord grant blessing on the meeting aud
the work in hand :"
1t was Father sewell--an Israelite indeed
the very imageof Old Honest in Banyans
Pilgrim. There had been meeting TO raise
money for home mission work, aud the col.
lection had Just been made when the old gen.
tleman entered, and the deacons had brought
all the plates into the table.pew. The pastor
10 sooner caught sight Of his aged friend than
he said:
Our friend, Mr.. Sewel, will am sure,
close the meeting by Offering prayer for God's 5
blessing on the proceedings Of this evening.
Father Sewell stood up, but he did not
pray. He did not shut bis eyes, but, on the
contrary, seemed looking for something. He
did not clasp his hands, but put them into
his pockets, and fumbed there with much
perseverance.
| am afraid, said the pastor "that my
brother did not understand me- Friend Sew
ell, did not ask you to give but to pray"
"Ay, ay" said the straightforward, bluff
speaker, a" but could not pray till had
given. 1t would be hypocrisy to ask bless.
ing on that which did not think worth Civ
ing to-"
There was not bit of ostentation in the
old man; it was his honest heart pouring
out its true feelings, and odd as his behavior
seemed, his conduct preached the whole con.
gregation such sermon as they will not soon
forget. Prayer unattended by effort is, be-
fore the Lord, as when the churl saith, " BE
ye warmed aud be ye filed" to a hungry
man. 1t is mockery. and no more. Clasp
in supplication hands that have been free ia
Offering. Let none Of us appear before the
Lord empty. To be allowed to give to the
eternal God is an honor so great that none
but british worIdngs will decline it. If we
are liberal in serving the Lords cause with
our substance, we may expect Him TO grant
the prayers in which we ask Him to estab.
ish the work Of our hands upon us.
