The Tide Coming In.

AT one of the MONDAY praye,
meetings the Rev. W. Arnot read
the following passage from the
writings of DIR. James Hamilton:
aWhen the tide is out,you may
have noticed, as you rambled
among the rocks, little pools
with little fishes in them. To
the shrimp in such a pool his
foot-depth of salt water is all the
ocean for the time being. He
has no dealings with his neigh
Dor shrimp in the adjacent pool,
though it may be only a few
inches of sand that divide them.
But when the rising ocean be-
gins to lip over the margin of the
the !urking-plaee, one pool joins
another; their various tenants
meet, and by-and-by, in place of
their little patch of standing
water, they have the oceans
boundless fields to roam in.
"When the tide is out-then
religion is low-the faithful are
to be be found insulated /; here a
few, in the little standing pools
that stud the beach, having no
dealings with their neighbors of
the adjoining pools, calling them
Samarltans, and fancying that
their own little community in
cludes all that are precious in
Gsd's sight. They forget. for a
time that there is a vast expanse

Purity of Thought.

The law of God, unlike human
enactments, takes cognizance Of
secret desires, passions and mo-
tives. The character may be out
wardly correct while the heart is
depraved. Over the beauty OF
the plum and apricot there grows
a bloom and a beauty more ex-
quisite than the fruit itself-a
soft delicate flush that over
spreads its blushing cheek. No Y
if you strike your hand over that,
and tits once gone, it is gone for
ever, for it grows but once. On
frosty morning you may see
the panes of glass covered with
landscapes, mountains, lakes.
and trees, blended with a beauti
full fantastic picture. Now lay
your hand upon the glass, and
by the scratch of your finger, or
by the warmth OF the palm, all
the delicate tracery will be OBJ
liberated. Young people are led
astray often by thesight oftheeyes
or by deoasing literature. Tastes
are debased, the imagination is
tainted, the blush of purity is
gone, and the heart is corrupted
before overt acts of sin are ven
tured upon. The law of God
strikes at the root of all evil, at
the hidden springs OF action with
in. The law is only really observ-
ed when kept in spirit as we'll as
in letter.

of ocean rising-svery ripple
brings it nearer-a mighty com
munnion- even the communion
of saints-which is to engulf all
minor considerations, and to en-
able the fishes of all pools-the
Christians, the Christ-lovers of
all deneminations-to come to-

"When, like a flood, the Spirit

the influx of that boundless sea
whose glad waters of eternity,
and in whose ample depths the
saints on earth have, room to

"Yes, our churches are the
standing pools along the beach
with just enough of their pecu-
liar clement to keep their in
mates living during the ebb-tide
period of the Church's history.
But they form a very little fellow
lowship-the largest is but little:
yet is there steadily flowing in a
tide of universal life and love,
which, as it lips in over the mar

inhabitants with an unwonted vi
vacity, and then let them loose

Pine Apples.

The history of the pine apple
dates back for three or four CEN
turies. Columbus found it in
Guadaloupe in 1893. The Jaw
anese cultivated it as early as
1899, and it is supposed that it
was first brought to Europe from
Java. 1t appears that this fruit
was transplanted from South
America to Asia and Africa, for
in 1892 it was carried to Bengal
and China from that country 1t
thrives in Brazil, and, according
to Humboldt, grows wild in the
forests of Orinoce. They spoil
very easily, and sometimes dur
ing the voyage here the whole
cargo of a vessel is spoiled. 1t is
considered a good trip if three
quarters of the cargo is in good
condition when the vessels ar
rives. This depends not only
upon the length of the voyage,
but also on the bad weather ex
perienced, thunder showers be-
ing particularly destructive to
them. 1t is estimated that 4, 200,
600 pine apples are brought into
this port annually. The business
of canning this fruit is becoming
quite extensive, and likewise
profitable, in this city, and sever
al firms are engaged in its prep
aration, and they put up at least
a million pine apples in cans
every year.-N Y. Spectator.
To the above may be added,
what viii appear strange to many
that the finest pine apples in the
world, and the largest perhaps,
are raised in cold climates, es-
pecially in England. 1t is one
of the fruits the flavor of which is
improved by cultivation. under
glass with artificial heat. Guilt.
waited in this way, in pil,ery,
the fruit attains the weight of
twelve pounds and is free from
the ibrous matrets which char
acterises it when grown in open
air.

Buying Horses.

There is no branch OF dealing
in which every class of society is
SO frequently taken in, as in the
purchase of horses. There are
no specific rules by which persons
can conduct themselves 80 as to
avoid these impestures. but they
may, at any rate. decline placing
confidence in those with whom
they have no previous acquain-
tance. In transactions which are
fair, the negotiating party is anx-
ious that every facility be given
to purchaser to see that he is
being treated with in good faith;
and We should pause the moment
we detect undue haste or reser-
vation, as in nineteen cases out
of twenty, we may depend upon
it, there is something suspicious
in the transaction. The only safe
way is a trial of several days, and
the disinterestsd opinion of an
experienced veterinary surgeon.
A great portion of horse buy
ers, however have to to thank
themselves for being cheated in.
their purchases, because they
will rely on their ownjudgment
without its having had the bene-
fit of experience. Almost every
man, in fact, wishes to be thought
4 good judge of a horse, which,
from the various points to be
taken into consideration, not on
ly of form, but as, relating to ac-
ton, for several purposes, is of
all others the most difficult 10
Judge of correctly. But such is
the case in other matters than
horse dealing, and the experience
which often comes too late for
our own use, is rarely accepted
for that of others.
In order to set aside a bargain
for horses, or indeed for anything
else, any fraud or deception prac
tised at the time of the sale will
void the csntrace; and it is not
absolutely necessary that the
horse should be unsound, so as
to constitute a breach of warran-
ty, in order to annul a bargain
where a fraud has been practised.
But if a man will not use his en-
beavers to protect his own inter-
est, the law will not take cogni.
zance Of the impositions which
may be practised upon owing to
his negligence. ssThe laws re-
lieve the careful, not the negli-
gent" is an ancient maxim in
the law, and forms an unsur-
mountable barrier against the
claims of an improvident pur-
chaser.-Prairie Farmer.

Patience.

II learned a lesson once" said
a lady, 'in a barDyard. 1t was a
frosty morning. | was loeking
out Of window into the barn
yard, where a great many cows.
oxen, and horses were waiting
to be watered. For a while they
all stood very quiet and still.
Presently one of the cows, in at
tempting to turn round, happen
ed to hit her next neighbor. In
moment this cow kicked and
hit her neighbor. She passed on
the kick and the hit to the next.
And directly the whole herd
were kicking and hitting each
other with great fury. | said to
myself, See what comes OF kick
ing when you are hit" A little
patient forbearance will save us
from a great deal of trouble.

The Locked-up Pardon.

In the Isle of Man, as l was
one day walking ON the seashore,
remember contemplating with
thrilling interest an old, gray.
ruined tower, covered with ivy.
There was a remarkable history
connected with the spot. In
that tower was formerly hanged
one of the best Governors the
island ever had. He had been
accused of treachery to the king
during the time of the civil wars,
and received sentence of death.
Intercession was made on his be-
half, and a pardon was sent, but
that fell into the hands of his bit
ter enemy, who kept it locked
up, and the Governor was hang
ed: His name is still honored by
the many, and you may often
hear a pathetic ballad sung to
his memory, to the music of the
spinning wheel.
One must feel horror-struck at
the fearful turpitude of that man
who, having the pardon for his
fellow creature in his possession,
could keep it back, and let him
die the death of a traitor. But
let us restrain our Indignation
till we ask ourselves whether God
might not point his finger to
most of US, and say: "Thou art
the man. Thou hast a pardon in
thine hands to save thy fellow
creature, not from temporal but
from eternal death. Thou hast
pardon suited to all, sent to all,
designated for all. Thou hast
enjoyed it thyself, but hast thou
not kept it back from thy broth
er, instead OF sending it to the
ends OF the earthg"- -Huqh Stoac-
ell.

Steam-Boiler Explosions.

a pfactlcal river man OF 81.
Louis makes public a new and
not altogether unreasonable tie
cry of boiler explosions at certain
seasons of the year, and in cer-
tain localities when the Ohio
River and its Cumberland and
Tennessee tributaries are all at
flood height. His theory is sim
ply this-that when the latter
rivers are at flood height they
pour out waters strongly impreg-
mated with the limestone sedi-
ment of the region through which
they run, and that this sediment
mingling with the clayey depos-
its of the Ohio forms a putty-like
paste. which under the influence
of the extreme heat when it ac-
cumulates in the boilers is soon
roasted into a thick indurate
state which coats the inner sur
face of the boilers and thus rem
ders it all the easier for the fires
to burn the iron of which they are
composed. On this theory the
writer accounts for the recent
Crescent City calamity, and he
says the only sure way to avoid
such occurrences at flood tide of
tie rivers is always, after running
three hundred miles, to stop and
give the boilers a thorough clean
ing. eewr
The importance of the subject
demands-that every atom Of sug-
gestion that looks in the slightest
degree plausible regarding the
use and treatment of steam boil
ers shall receive careful consider
alton. The theory set forth by
this correspondent is, it is true,a
very simple one, and does not
touch upon elaborate scientific |
and mechanical phases of the |
question. which have heretofore
been almost exclusively consid-
cred. The writer's is in all re
spects an eminently practical one
and it is not the smallest feature
ofits practicability that it is SO
easy to test it by actual expert
ment. Men whose duty calls
hem into familiarity with the
service and danger of steam boil
ers should test the theory for
themselves. They need not wait
or Congress or any of the author
ties to move in the NATTER, but
,an at once, with simple contri-
yance and at very small cost, put
he idea to the test of proof. 1t
Gems, indeed scarcely necessary
wen to suggest that such prach-
al tests be made at once.-Csn-
