Bessie Barton. Test.

" ! wish ! know just what To do about it,
were the words that again and again fell
from Dr. Balton's lips; for the matter to be
decided was a weghty one.
Each time they were uttered, the soft eyes
OF a Young girl, who sat sewing near by
were lifted Wistiuly towards the gentleman,
till at last he noticed their expression, and
asked " What is it, pussy2 What do you
think about itf'
should 90 by papa, rule" she replied,
the crimson creeping into her fair cheek
And what may papa's rule be- little l}es
sic 2" asked her uncle,
"Neyer to do anything, or to say anything
OF TO 60 anywhere, where We cannot ask
Gods blessing TO rest upon us lie says it
saves a world of trouble, and is alwaysa sure
test"
DIR. Barton was a worldly man, who some
times scotfed at the simple confidence of pi-
Gus souls but no such feeling tempted him
now, and silently kissing the fair forehead
of his noice, he left the room.
Uttered in weakness as it was, 3essie's
lesson of trust proved the "Word fifty
spoken" !" and not many months passed be-
fore he, too, claimed this test as his rule in
lile's duties and trials.
When. our journey through life seems a
tangled pathway, have We as sure a rule to
guide our weak steps Not all the wisdom
of philosophy can yield so perfect a test, DO
nothing but what you can ask Gods bless
ing to rest upon What a safeguard against
the wiles of the tempter be the lure ever so
seductive What beacon in the darkest
hour of night To feel that God will bless
our efforts, is a stronger staff to uphold our
trembling steps than the most powerful Of
earthly helpers.
Nothing but what God will bless" 4"
Write it on your heart have it craven as a
breastplate "Yea, will help thee; | will up
hold thee with the right hand of my right
eousness' So he has promised, and never
] fails to fulfill.

The first transit OF Venus ever seen bya
human eye was predicted by a boy, and was
observed hy that boy just as hc reached the
age of manhood His maine was Jeremiah
HORROR We have somewhat wonderful
story to tell YOU about this boy. lie lived in
ana obscure village near Liverpool England.
lle was q lover of books OF science, and be-
fore he reached the age of eighteen be had
mastered the Astronomical knowledge of the
day. lie studied the problems of keplcr,
and lac made the discovery that the tables of
kepler indicated the near approach of the
period OF the transit of Venus across the
suns centre This was about the year 1853.
Often on midsummer nights the boy lIorroX
might have been seen in the fields watching
the planet Venus, The desire sprung mp
within him 20 see the transit of the beauti-
fu planet across the disc of the sum- for it
was sight that no eye had ever seen, and
one that would tend 20 solve some of the
greatest problems ever presented tothe mind
of au astronomer So the hoy began to eX-
anime the astronomical tables Of keplcr, and
by their aid endeay0red 90 demonstrate at
what time the next transit would occult.
lie found ana error In the tables, and then he,
heing the hr,t OF all astronomer, to make
the precise calculation, discovered the exact
date when the next transit would take place.
" Ilet told his secret tu one intimate friend,
% boy who ike himself loved science. The
Young astronomer then awaited the cycut
which b. had predicted for number of
years. never seeing the loved planet in the
shaded evening Sky without dreaming Of the
dav when the transit should fulfil tine heau-
tfu vision he carried continually In his
mind.

The Power Of Children.


4 man was leaning much intoxicated,
against tree; some little children coming
from school saw him there and at once said
To each other, What shall we do for him"
Presently, said one, "Oh, I'll ten YOU,
let's sing him q temperance song"
And So they did collecting around him,
they sang
Away the bowl, away the bowl" and So
on ia beautiful tunes.
The poor fellow enjoyed the singing and
when they had finished that song he said,
Sing again, little girls, sing again.
We will, they said. " If You win sign the
temperance pledge
NO, no; we are not at temperance
meeting there are 80 pledges here"

OH do sing that again." said he, as ht
wiped the tears from his eyes
No, no more" they said, unless you'll
sign the pledge sign and We win sing fol
YOU"
lie pleaded Tor the singing. but they were
firm, and declared they would 90 away if he
did not sign.
But" said the poor fellow, striving t,
find an excuse there is no tlbln here; how
can ! write without table,
At this modest, quiet, pretty It'll,
creature, with her finger ON her lips cam,
and said. " Yes, you can spread the pledge on

" oh water fnr me. bright water ior me-
Give wine tu The trrinulous dehauchea."

And pitfalls iurt u shade along The ground,
And broken gletma of brightness here and there
Glance through and leave unvamcd the death-iike
