From her window Mrs. Bracket had

ready to cry out with afiright--the cry was

SUNDAY SCHOOL teaching must be con
Quoted with tact Teaching without tact
Is tax. In a sculptor's studio there are
some rough-hewn blocks, others nearer
completion, others with delicate tracery
visible The marble Is the same. II is
the skill, the tact of the sculptor that en-
ables him To bring out the finished work.
Finishing Sunday scholars is different
from carving marbles. There is a differ
ence in the work. True tact is the ready
fact OF approaching and doing what is re-
Quired 10y the circumstances. Mind acts

In your class are several types OF mind.
One boy comes from religious home
where his heart has had opportunity to
grow. Another is from the home of want
and drunkenness. His heart is hard,
and he looks on the world as an enemy
The father of another is Il scotler, and his
mother "a religious woman. Another is
waif with no home at all. Perhaps these
are in the same class This is all differ.
ent from sculptnring marble. Different
treatment is required for each. The teach

scning the lesson the same way at all
times will produce failure A judicous
change of methods is of advantage Some

In questioning, there Is great call for
the exercise of tact. The superficial
scholar may ask question like Topsy

was sold Kentuck." To be able to lead
back the wandering thought requires tact

FROM BUpDHAGHOsgA's "PARABLEs."
Kisagotami, clasping to her breast
aer boy just dead, and with strange fear
possessed,
Ran through the streets, besieging every
door
For some rare balm his lost life to restore;
Until her neighbors, at this frantic grief,
For which the world itself has no relief,
Began 10 say: "The girl has lost her head
What medicine is that 1ohich cures tie deod!"
But one more wise, and taking PHYS part,
offered this solace to her aching heart:
Dear girl, cannot protfer you much JOY,
But there's doctor who will help your boy"
Asking his name, the girl was strai ghtway
To good Gotama, and to him she went.
GOOD master, aid me- for hear it said
You have the power TO raise my child that's
dead"
The Buddha answered: "If do this deed,
lis needful you procure some mustard seed
Found in a house where neither groom nor
bride,
Parent nor child, nor man nor maid, has
died.
Then, with her child still clasped about her
waist,
From house to house, weary round she
paced
On her sad errand-but could cross no door
Where Deaths dark shadow had not passed
before.
One voice forever on her pathway flew:
The dead are many, but the living few"
So, when Gotama asked if shell brought
The mustard-seed, so long and vainly sought,
She said: 81 have it not-each way | sped
found but few were living many dead"
And Buddha answered: "True enough, most
true,
Death comes to ali, as it has come to YOU"
50 fed her grief, and seeing in the night,
Al every house, bright or fading light,
She said. "Our human lives are just the
First an uprising, then dying flame;
"Neyer on earth will such mutations cease,
But after death come rest and endless peace"

TIE NOTHEPS CRADLE-SONG.


SING him a cradlc-song
Tender and low;
Tell him how Jesus came
Long, long ago;
Came as little one,
Lovely and mild,
Gods own eternal Son,
Yet Mary's child.
Long years may come and pass,
And there shah be
Under the churchyard grass
Slumbcr for thee;
Yet shall thy song live on
Still in his life,
Sweeter when thou art conc
Out of the strife.
Sorrow will come with time,
Faith may grow cold;
Truth, like silver chime,
Calls to the fold;
Calls to the rowing sheep
GONE far astrayl,
"Come, and thy Lord shall keep
Spoilers away"
Say not the words arc weak,
Scorned OF the wise;
Doth not the Master speak
In lowly guisc?
He shall thy weakness make
Holy and strong,
And thy poor song shall wake
A Swccter song.

THE TWO NEIGHBORS.

One evening, as the twilight was dusk
ing into deeper shades, Farmer WeltOn
stood in his door yard with gun in his
hands, and saw a dog coming out from
his shed. II was not his dog, for his was
of a light color, while this was surely
black.
The shed alluded to was open in front,
with double doors for the passage OF carts,
and wicket for pedestrians at the back
and this shed was part Of a continuous
structure connecting the barn with the
house Around back of this shed was the
sheep-fold
There had been trouble upon Farmer
Weton's place. Dogs had been killing
his Sheppard some Of the very best at
that He had declared, in his wrath, that
he would shoot the first stray dog he
sound prowling about his premises. On
this evening, by chance, he had been
carrying his gun from the house to the
barn when the canine intruder appeared.
Aye, and in the barn he had been taking
the skin from valuable sheep which had
been killed and mangled with tigerish
ferocity.
So when he saw the strange dog COM
ing through his shed, he brought the gun
to his shoulder and, with quick, sure aim,
hred. The dog gave leap and howl,
and, having whisked around in circle
two or three times, he bounded off in a
tangent, yelping painfully, and was soon
lost to sight
Halloo! What's TO pay now, Wekon -
Ah-is that you, Frost.'
Yes, Ie been shootin' somethin'
amt ye?"
" I've shot a dog. I Think
le-e-s. | seed him scootin' off. 1twas
Brackets, reckon"
Before the farmer could make any
further remark his wife called to him
IRON the porch, and lie went in
Very shortly aIterward a boy and a girl
came out through the shed as the dog had
come. Down back of Welton's farm, dis.
ttnt half a mile, or so, was a saw and grist
mlll with quite little settlement around
L. and people having occasion to go on
loot from that section to the farms on the
LII could cut off long distance by cross
ing Nelton's lot. The boy and girl were
children of Mr.. Bracket When they
reached home they were met by a scene Of
ore confusion. Old Carlo, the grand OLD
newfoundland dog-the loving and the
l'yed-the true and the faithful-had come
home shot through the head, and wa:

Christian Enthusiasm.

Mr.. MOODY illustrates his idea of
Christian enthusiasm by the following;
"Thcre was an old man wanted TO see
when first went to Europe in 1857. /
was told not to fail to go to Edinburgh and
sec DR. Duff at the Assembly. ] stayed
in Edinburgh week to get little of the
old mans fire. He made an appeal for
India lie pleaded for an hour and half
for India and at the end of the hour and
half he tainted away They took him up
and carried him to the vcstbue. When
he revived he said | didn't get quite
through let me go back and finish They
said If you go back II will cost you
your life. Well he said, ] shall die
if don't So they carried HIM back.
As they passed up the aisle the people
rose, and tears flowed down every cheek at
sight of the old veteran. He said 10 them:
- Fathers and mothers of Scotland, is
II true that you have got no more sons to
give to India? | have spent twenty five
years Of my life there, and have come
back 10 die; there is plenty of money in
the bank, but your sons are not willing to
go. II call comes from the Queen 10 go
there in the army, they are ready. l. it
come to this, that the Lord calls for re-
cruits for His kingdom and they will not
go" And, turning TO the Moderator, he
said: 5 II there is no one to go TO India |
will return 10 them and let them know
that there is one old Scotchman that can
die for them, if he can't live for them
- My friends, that Is what ! call en-.
