SILENCE.

We are but little islands in the silence
Thst sucks and settles round US like the sea;
But drop plant. song or deed; then see how swift
The eiIencee again above it drift.
And cover smooth as ever has been and shall be.
Or list that stganRe eea tapping in the dark;
Then loud the subtle currents pulse; and near;
When in the hight Enclosed as q shut box,
Sleepless we lie and long to pick the locks.
By some new nameless sense the soul can hear.
And at the last silence eubmerges ALL
The lOffiest head, the proudest work swept DER
By its high tide, sink down and disappear;
Yet drifting, foreign wood and weeds do cheer
Our souls with certain signs Of some rich shore.
Then why should we so question silence fear
Its dumb ways. and dlead its deeps to daret
Have We, COlumbus-.ike, 10 yearnii Is grand
To be borne on and find that untried land
Silence, we trust thee only bear there!

For the RB7isrER
Plea FOR PRAYER.
BY l. RgRpERT soRroS

(Respectfully Inscribed to one who said, " In
temperance can never be put down by prayer" y
Tell mo not that prayer is useless that our plead
ings shall but fail,
Adj that force, alone, can grant US, what We ask
without avail;
That our prayers and heartfelt lealugs, for tho
errlng ones we love,
Are In vain to Him who noteth, cen the spar
rows fall, above.
Man is not brute that only by brute forcce can
be restrained,
That to keep him from destroying, he must. like
the brute be chained.
No! his soul for good or evil or will burst our
confines Ger.
If we bar him from the 1emptsr. We must lock
fore'er the door
No he has 4 heart that ever, LOweset eloudsd
Ger by sin,
Is not dead to love aud kindness bears No for
mer light within.
And he often hears a summons at the portal Of
his heart,
'Tia the voice of God in warning: From the
pnth Of sin depart"
and that voice 50 kind In warning, doth what
mau can never do,
Wnkens oft that .oul-long sleeping, ponetrates
the darkness through,
And he turns from out those shadows, from the
Pv"SAS thhb DOuuu ulm
All his strength aroused within and ha ia Il man
once more,
Oh, we want rot bolts and fetters, to restrain us
from the wrong,
But we want that strength, heaven-glven, that
shall make US pure and strong;
Hearts SO pure, go truo. and noble, thst no Temp
ter eer can win,
From the paths Of Love and Virtue 10 the dark
nbodes of sin'
Then for all the sinf H. errng, lot our heart feit
prayers arise
To shat God Of Love and Mercy, who shall hear
our earnest cries,
And perhaps that in His mercy lie will touch
some hardened heart
And from n and shame anc SORROW he may ever
moro depart!
Let us pray Not only praying, let US work and
watch as well,
Doing d ids of love and kindness that for good
shall surely tell
Cheering, blessing those around ui. with our life,
from day to day,
Doing that for which We ssk, and beng that for
which we pray!
