GO on.

A man must not yield to dcspondency,
nor sit down inactive, despairing, be-
couse he is in darkness. Sometimes
few steps onward or upward are all that
are needed, aud he, for want even OF
that activity, may remain all his life
hcneath the cloud. Perhaps you have
been ascending mountain with the
mist so thick before you that at a few
feet from You not an object was visible,
and so wet that it was like n dripping
rain. Timidity and dependency say IN
such case, You had better turn back,
Mt ony rate lie by in the first shelter
But perhaps you will find clear sky
with little more travel upward. Cour-
ace and hope say, Go on! Faith says,
Go ON higher up you find light. Sc
Won 90 on. and mt length, unexpectedly,
Mt one single step, you emerge INTO clem
sunshine. Then all your trouble is Tor
gotten. How glad you are that yo'
perscvered, that you did not turn back
YOU would have lost this glorious sight
this magnificent prospect, this peculiar
ity of glory, which you could enjoyed
only under these very circumstances o
preceding mist and gloom. "lo'
world have lost the sight of the cloud
under you, and the atmosphere rest'n
upon them as on sea of cholcodony
smooth, soft, undulating, and the sun
mits of the mountains all around gin
tering with ice and snow. And yo
would have lost the glory of the breal
,, ing MP and trooping away of these clou
congregations, as the departure OF a
. army with banners, and the reyelati'
of the unveiled world rs new creation

ANNIE AND WILLIE's PRAYER.
A Christmas Poem.

n CnrlSJindS EOen'
lY Mrs. SOPHIE =. SNOW.
Twas the night before Christmas; Good night
had been said,
And Annio and Willie had crcpt into bed;
Ihrc were tears ON their pillows and tears in their
And each little bosom was heaying with sighs,
For tonight their stern iathors command had been
given
That thpy should retire precisely at seycn
Instead Of eight; for they troubled him more
with questions uuhrard Of, than ever before
I[r mad told hcm he thought this deception sin,
No such thing as "Sauta Caus' ever had been,
And he hoped, after this he should never more
hear
How hc scrambled down chlmhcyb win presents
each year.
And this waa the reason that two little heads
Sn rrstIessly tossed ON their soft, downy beds.
Eight nine and the clock IN the stcepe tpled ten;
Nh A word had been spoken 10y either TIL then
When Wilies sud face from their blanket did peep,
And whispered, 4" Dear Anlis, if you fast asleep
=. Wby no. brother Wilie,' q sweet voice replies,
awe tried It in vain, but cant shut my eyes;
For somehow 1t makes me sorry because
Dear papa has said there ia no Santa Claus
Now we know that there is, and II cant he denied,
For hp came every year before MANN died
Buf then, Iyc been thinking that she used 10 pray
Ana God would hear everything mama would say,
And perhaps lhc asked him to send santa Claus
with the sack full of presents he brought every
we'll wI,y tanl we pay dcst AZ mama did then,
And ak God to send him with presents adeh
"ryr hrcn thinking 50, too' And without word
-Four little feet bounded ont on the floor,
Ana four little knees the soft carpet pressed,
And two tiny hands were claspcd close to each
breast
"Now Willie, you know we must firmly bolleye
