The Grandeur of Faith.

We recently called on a lady of culture
and refinement who, having just taken pos
session of anew house with elegant surround
ings. had suddenly been called to face the
approach Of fearful disease that seemed
beyond human power to avert With low
ing husband and winsome daughter, with a
home filled with evidences of wealth and
taste, encircled by warm, true-hearted friends.
with everything earthly to make life glad
and Joyous, we remarked, You have every
ing to live for. Does it not depress You to
think that all this must be given mp ii this
disease is not stayed 2" The reply, simple,
earnest, truthful, was, "Why, have every
thing to die forl"
OF the grandeur and the beauty of that
faith which sees, through the riited clouds,
the glory beyond; which can say, amid deep
est darkness. :" the morning cometh;' that
faith which, with "things seen and tempo
raj" most beautiful aud attractive, can
raise one up into a full appreciation OF " the
things that are unseen and eternal;' that
faith which bridges over the river enabling
the believer to tread with finn footstep anc
alone the way to the unknown land tha
/ faith which will lead one encircled by rich
est earthly gifts to say, " | have everything
/ to die for ~ idcdHce.

Home aud Happiness.


If there is a desire which is shared by all
the human race it is the desire of happiness.
Indeed, this may be said to be the founda-
tion of all desires, or rather that which EN-
braces and includes them all within itself,
The eagerness for wealth. the thirst for
fame, the yearning for applause, the longing
for affection, the hope of excellence-ail
have their roots in the natural desire for
happiness. 1t ia because some one of these
things seems TO us to hold out the best prom
ise for happiness that we are solicitous to
gain iti otherwise it would lose all hold
upon us. This is not wholly a selfish desire.
Deep down in the heart Of each man and
woman dwells the wish for Others happiness
as well as his own. 1t may be weak for
want OF active effort 1t may be obscured
by the larger presence of self-interest but
II is there, and If nurtured and developed is
one OF the richest sources of earth's enjoy.
ments. The readiness with which a com.
rnunity will respond TO the needs caused by
some sudden emergency is alone sufficient
proof of the universal existence of this de.
! sire. Yet in our daily commonplace life il
