A BATTLE OF CLOUDS. Although
winters residence over fourteen thousand
feet above the level of the sea, upon
Pixies Peak, has little of general inter
est, still there are scenes which the
dweller in the valley might long to look
upon. To the east of the Peak, far up
among the gorges and defiles of the
mountains, there is a valley, where, at
pightfall, the misty clouds gather until
they have filled the bowl brin full with
fleecy whiteness. There it rests in peace
and quiet until the first rays of the sun
come creeping over the hills. Then life
is at once generated and strange COM
motion begins, which grows in violence
until, like maddened waves beating up
narrow bay and flashing its rocky
shores in fury, the cloudy pillows toss
and tumble upon each other, and dash
against the huge crags, filing the mind
with wonder and awe. Not until the
sunlight has lifted the contending hosts
far above the mountain tops does this
battle of the clouds cease, and the scene
as it disappears from sight, leaves lin,
gering desire to witness the wierd specta
Gle again.

FREAK OF INsANITY.-An insane lad
of sixteen, at Deckers run in the oil re-
gions of Pennsylvania, recently ran from
home under the idea that his friends
meant to kill him, climbed poplar tree
seventy feet high, and when Others
climhed after him, he got out on slen-
der branch and threatened to drop off.
And there scores of people watched him
for hours, every effort to coax him fail
ing, until they conceived the desperate
idea of telling the tree, as the cold would
soon kill him. On its way the poplar
struck against huge maple, the boy
yelled and leaped into the new refuge
, and in few seconds was higher up than
, before. The moon had now risen, and
the boy had been nearly thirteen houri
in the tree, on one of the days of loves

we must keep at 1t steadily. Like the man
digging an artesian we'll. drill, drill, bore,
bore, and soon 1t comes. The artesian
well ln Paris was spoken of with
interest. Patience wrought that work and
missionary labor must be done In the same
way.
The missionary enterprise in its method
IL the oral delivery of the Christian message
by the church through the preacher.
Reflect npon the certainty of the work.
1t Is no dubious work, but prosecuted in
obedience to God. 1t is not of value, and
never will be, and can illume the soul and
assist philosophers In hesthendom. Many
Brahmins have bowed their head to Jesus
Christ. Illustrations were given in the
preachers own experience, which were of
exceeding interest and pointedly told, and
were received with much applause.
The subsection to Christ is an everlasting
liberation. The beauty and blessedness of
the missionary enterprise is shown in the
text. Noble is the work of the Christian
missionary. Ever fighting; ever watching
ever praying for the deliverance of the
heather. 1t is heroic for him, but there
is an equal heroism in those who sent them
out, who equip them and who, if silenced,
the missionary enterprise would cease.
Blessed and beautiful are they who do this
work, whether they go away or stay at
home. The garden tree in India would
die without water, and we invite you all to
pour upon it the gifts of your sympathy
and generosity, which will make the enter
prise one sweetmeat to your children, and
bearing to them point of great promise.
The sermon was received with great fav-
or. brief, concise, interesting in its every
word and delivered with a marked and en-
phatic utterance.
Prayer was then offered by Rev. DIR.
Smith after which the congregation Joined

their relations to the missionaries are all
That could be desired. Nearly half of the
pastors are now wholly supported by their
own people. and the remainder partially so.
Nothing has contributed so much to the
spiritual life and activity of the native
churches as the cheerful support of their
own institutions. The self-denial and
sacrifice made for the cause of Christ are
rich in spiritual blessing.
SUMMARY OF RESULTS.
Such is n brief summary of the history
OF the mission of the board for the past
year. The statistics show twenty six more
churches, over a thousand added to the roll
OF membership on profession of faith, and
mat the gospel has been regularly preached
the past year through the agency of the
American board. in tweniy-one different
ianvuages, in five hundred and sixty-nine
different towns. cities. and islands in var
ious portions of the globe. The influence
mus eXelted in leavenng the thoughts and
sentiments of mullitIides and in prepare
non Tor the final trumphs of the gospel,
no figures can measure.

Six MILLIoNs.--About two years ago,
DR. j. WALKER, an old and prominent
physician of California, discovered, by act
ual experience upon his own system, a
medicine which may honestly be termed
"a boon to suffering humanity" Being
a combination of herbalistic extracts,
pungent and sour to the taste, and yet
possessed of gentle stimulative character

despite the prejudice existing among his
profession, against all patented medi.
cines, he determined to brave the jeers OF
his brother practitioners, and give to sui-
fering humanity the benefit of his acct
dental discovery. He did so, and the
dement's from its use became known. The
demand increased, and immense quaint
ties were sold, at merely nominal price.
Its merit is told in the fact that lin two
years over SIN MILLIONS of bottles have
been sold;" and still the demand in

greeted by Mr.. Bentley entered the house,
where Mrs Bentley met him, escorted
him into the par.or and introduced MIN
10 the guests already there assembled.
"Where is Lutief Z" he asked, showing
the least particle of annoyance that she
had not been there to greet him on MS ar
rival.
"She is in her room putting on an extra
finish to her toilet, suppose. She VIII
be here in moment" replied Mrs. Bent
ley.
AS she left the parlor and passed
through the hall Lutte came tripping
down the stairs. Mrs. Bentley gave one
glance at her attire and exclaimed:
"Why, Lutte Haines, are you crazy
Never more sane in my life, auntls,
Will you present me to your guests now
What do you mean, Lutte 7"
Never mind; I'll explain all to your
satisfaction by-and. by" laughed Lutte.
She wore the same costume in which
she had gone to the market two days be-
fore. Upon one hand she wore one OF the
mittens which Mrs. Bentley had urged
her TO wear upon the occasion referred 70.
Mrs. Bentley offered no further opposi-
ton and led the way to the parlor, fol
lowed by Lutte, whom she introduced to
the party there assembled.
A portion of them looked with surprise
upon the costume of Lutte, and others
noticed only the rare beauty Of her face.
She greeted them with queenly, grace
full bow, aud advancing to Leon Lancas-
ter she said:
/" Mr.. Lancaster, think promised at
our last meeting that when next we should
meet would exchange this ring for the
mate of this mitten," and she removed the
gemmed circlet from her finger.
He started to his feet.
"Great Heavens! ne cried, turning
pale, "what does this meang"
at means, sir, that am the person
whom you met in low restaurant on -
street, and whom you so grossly insulted,
mistaking me for poor market girl.
1t was freak of fancy which
prompted me to assume this dress ana
take some things to market for auntie, as
uncle was away and her hired man was

that / was led to do so, for thereby l
learned your true character" she replied,
her beautiful eyes flashing looks of with,
ering scorn andscontempt upon him.
Lutte, there is some mistake about
this. l."
"Say no more, sir; am not mistaken
| saw you there in state o. intoxication
and you grossly insulted me; aye, you
even dared to lay violent hands on me.
Here is your ring; take it; never wish
to see you againp' and she flung the bau-
BILE at his feet and swept from the room.
When she returned in a short time after,
dressed in her own becoming attire, and
looking regally beautiful, the seat which
Leon Lancaster had occupied was vacant.
She entered with zest into the festivi'
ties of the occasion, and if there was one
heart amid that party which throbbed
with joy and thanksgiving it was the
heart of Lutte Haines, for by mere chance
she had been saved from marrying man
wholly unworthy to bear the name OF
husband.
