An Old Friend of His Wife.

Il WAS in a small hamlet in the
western part Of New York that they
resided, aud there they both grew to
manhood.
Upon attaining bis majority, Rob.
inson went West and settled in Iowa,
while Brown remained in bis native
village
For some years they heard
nothing Of each other.
In the mean time both had mar.

After q few minutes conversation,
they adjourned to the nearest hotel,

The Masters Example.

He "went about doing good" This is
the Sayiour's record. He was not content
with staying at home, or in His own city,
and with doing good to those who were
brought to Him; but He sought the sick,
the distressed, the ignorant, and the needy,
that He might heal, enligbten, and succor
them. St. Matthew says of Him that He
went about all Galilee," teaching, and
preaching, and healing among the peoples
And they who are followers Of Jesus will do
likewise. They will not wait for distress, or
physical, or spiritual want to be brought to
their knowledge or sight; but, at the cost Of
time and comfort, and self-sacrifice, will
seek out aad fad those who need aid or
counsel This is love- For true love can
not be inactive, or indolent, or apathetic
while the world around US is lying in dark
ness, and in dire need of aid in thousand
ways. 1t must be said of Christians as it
was of the Saviour, that they went about
doing gCod-not waiting for the opportunity,
but making it. Lost sheep must be sought
with toll and travail. Distress which hides
itself or is unable to make itself known must
be searched for. Ignorance which shuns
the light or which loves darkness must be
brought under the rays of the Sun of Right
eousness. The inactive, slothful, stay-at
home Christian, who feels that he has done
his duty if he feeds the beggar or clothes
the naked who come to his door, while he
neglects the sick, the erring, the poor, the
fatherless, and the naked who abound out
side of his immediate ken, initiates the un-
profitable servant in the parable of the tai
ents, rather than the example of the Master

Household Affairs.

In the olden time the father of the house
hold was it's prophet and priest. The father
of the present fast age can hardly find time
to make the acquaintance of his own chill
dren, to say nothing of decent and devout
attention to the proprieties and sanctities of
family religion.
1t is sad fact that in many households,
nominally Christian, there is no family altar
and no household recognition of God. The
Bible is an unopened book, and there is no
open acknowledgment of allegiance to God,
the Father in heaven. A goddess, prayer
less household is terrible spectacle, espe.
cially when there is an outward profession
of better things. The evils are magnifed
many fold where there are young children.
What can compensate for the sweet and ten
der Influences of wellconducted family wor-
ship on the minds and hearts of the little
ones? Parents who omit it not only provoke
the wrath of the Lord, but neglect the best
and most natural means of religious educa-
ton, and thus put in fearful jeopardy the
souls of their children. 1t was not an idle
superstition that bade the s'mple-minded, de-
vout Norwegian girl flee from the house
where she had engaged service, because there
was no "prayers in the house" A prayer
less soul is fearful anomaly. But home,
where children are born and nurtured and
reared, where loved ones sicken, and suffer,
and die, where in the eyes of the children
the father should be the type of the "Our
Father in heaven" and the mother the ideal
of all that is tender and affectionate and de-
yout, where all precious memories should be
garnered like hidden treasures, and where
all holy and pure influences and associations
should pervade the very air-with no open
Bible and no vOiceo song, prayer or praise
what shall we say Of tbat home! One can
hardly conceive it possible that such home
could exist in a Christian land. No wonder
that the curse of the Lord hangs in dark
relief over the fapilies that call not on His
name.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1875-10-27
Why Are You Not a Christian?

Fsrst-Is it because you esteem temporal
things more than eternal things? "For
what shall it profit man if he shall gain
the whole world and lose his own soul ?"--
Mark viii: 36.
Seconds it because you are indulging
in some sinful practice which you are not
willing to give up? "Sin, when it is fin
ished, bringeth forth death. james i: 10.
Thirds it because you think there is
no danger in living as you are doing? 2"
" How shall we escape if we neglect so great
salvation ?"-HebrewS ii q
.F0mrth-IS it because you fear you are
too great sinner to come to Jesus? "The
blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, cleanseth
us from all sin. u John i: 7.
Ftth-Is it because of the inconsistent
conduct of some church-members ? "But
why dost thou judge thy brother? So then
every one of US shall give an account Of him.
self to God Romans xiv: II.
SSrth-Is it because you are ashamed to
confess Christ before the world? {" For
whosoever shall be ashamed of Me and My
words, of him shall the Son of man be
ashamed when He shall come in His own
glory" Luke tx: 26.
