One Of the most striking examples Of
moral courage was afforded Mt recent
Iowa revival meeting At the close all who

thought the boy might he asleep. To test
this theory he asked all who wanted 10 20
to hell to rise. The boy promptly rose.
No one requested him to resume his seat,
and the spectacle of this sober, serious, sol
itary boy, who hnd thus freely chosen his
destiny and could not tell u lie, was too
much Tor the dignity ol that religious
meeting. The boy WAS arrested on the

obeying the dictates Of his own conscience.

WHAT A FLY DID.

There was wicked inn-keeper in Scot
land who determined that he would never
hear any missionary preach or pray. But
one Sunday he thought he would go to
church, just to hear the music: ne did not
want to hear anything else. So when Mr..
Ilnwies, the preacher, arose to pray, he put
his fingers in his ears, and did not hear u
word of the prayer; and again, when the
minister got up to preach, he put his fingers
sermon.
At last, little fly came and lighted on
his nose. Pooh! pooh!" He tried to blow
the fly away without taking his fingers out
OF his ears; but the fly stuck to his nose,
till Mt last he had to take his hand from his
ears and brush away the fly.
While his hands were down, he heard the
minister, in strong voice. repeat the text
"He that hath ears to hear, let him hear
These words impressed him. He became
interested in the sermon, and heard it all.
That sermon resulted in his conversion. He
and became good and useful man.
Have you ever done rs much good rs this
little hyP That fly made that obstinate man
take his fingers out Of his ears, and hear the
gospel? Have you ever induced any bad
boy to go with you to the Sabbath school or
church. that he might hear the gospelP

his fingers out Of hi. ears, that he might
