which mad been reported in Cuba and Peru, and
presented revolving details OF the III treatment or the
coolies IN the Spanish Antilles
Other members followed MIR. Fowler IN condem-
nation OF the traffic. which was pronounced "a dis
grace to civilization and greater evil than the

The Arabs Gift.

A poor Arab was travelling in the desert,
when he met with spring of clear sweet,
and sparkling water. Accustomed as he was
to brackish wells, to his simple mind it ap-
peared that such water was worthy Of a mon.
arch aud filling his leathern bottle from the
spring, he determined to 60 and present it to
the calph himself
The poor man travelled a consid derabe dis
tanee before he reached the presence of his
sovereign, and laid his Offering at his feet.
The caiph did not despise the little gift
brought to him with so much trouble. He
ordered some of the water poured into a cup,
drank it, and, thanking the Arab with a
smile, ordered him to be presented with re-
ward.
The courtiers around pressed forward, ca
ger to taste Of the wonderful water but, to
the surprise Of all, the caliph forbade them
to touch even single drop.
After the poor Arab had quilted the royal
presence with 4 light and joyful heart, the
caliph turned TO his courtiers, and thus ex-
planned the motives Of his conduct: "Du-
ring the travels of the Arab, the water had
become impure and distasteful. But it was
an offering of love, and as such l have re-
ceived it with pleasure. But | well knew
that had | suffered another to partake Of it
he would not have concealed his disgust
and, therefore, forbade you, lest the hear
of the poor man should have been wounded.
Like the water brought by the Arab, little
as are the gifts worth in themselves which W.
can lay at the feet of our Lord, he will moi
reiact or desnise the little offering of Low,

RULES ron MAKING PRAYER MEETING
DuLL.-1. Never think oft unless some one
mentions it; never pray for it.
2. When any one speaks 1T, say that you
think it stupid, illconducted and shamefully
cold
3. If the plan ofsuggesting a subject in ad.
vance be pursued, say that it makes the
meeting heartless and formal ; it not, call 1t
rambling and useless.
4. Never attend on stormy nights--it might
encourage the faithful ones.
5. Never leave any business or amusement
for the mceting-you can't have time for
everything.
9. When you do go, if you wish to speak
always say the same rhings-people might
forget.
I. Speak slowly in droning voice, as II
you were going to sleep.
s. Always begin by lamenting the coldness
of the church and the wickedness Of the world.
8. Next, scod at the church members who
are not there-it is pleasant for those who
are.
TO- Close by desponding remark respect
ing your own spiritual state.
IL. Tell your pastor, as you 60 out, that
you are distressed because the meeting is so
low and dead.
l2. Suggest to the brother who walks your
way that it would be well to give it up, as it
cannot be Of any use.
By carefully following these rules, any and
every prayer meeting will seem dull to you.
