CHRISTIANITY A FAILURE.-While
Christianity is speaking in languages
more numerous, by tongues more elO-
quent, ip nations more populous than
ever before; marshaling better troops
with richer harmony; shrinking from
no foe; rising triumphant from every
conflict; shaking down the towers of
all philosophers that exalt themselves
against God making the steam press
rush under the demand for her Scrip
lures, and the steam horse groan under
the weight Of her charities emancipat-
ing the enslaved; civiliZing the lawless;
refining literature; inspiring poetry /;
sending forth art and science, no longer
clad in soft raiment to hnger in kings
palaces, but as hardy prophets of God
to make earth bud ana blossom as the
rose; giving godlike breath and free
dom and energy to the civilization
which bears its name ;eleyating savage
islands into civilized states; leading
forth Christian martyrs from the noun
tains Of Madagascar turning the clubs
of cannibals into the railings OF the al
tars before which FIJI savages call upon
Jesus; repeating the Pentecost "by
many an ancient river and by many a
palmy plain :" laundering at the seats
of ancient paganism sailing all waters;
cabling all oceans; scaling all noun
tains in the march of its might; and
ever enlargiDg the diameter of those
circles Of light which it has kindled on
earth, and which will soon meet in a
universal illumination-yOu call it a
failurei A little more such failure, and
we shall have, all over the globe, the
new heavens and the new earth where

HINTS TO CHRIsTIANs.-Don' be
afraid to ''show your colors.u A cow
ardly Christian is misnomer.-
from no declaration, from no duty that
Christ desires of you. The timid,
vacillating course is the hardest and
most barren. The brave, outspoken,
faithful life is the happiest and most
effective.
There are many things you do not
understand as yet. But let no doubt
or uncertainties prevent you from act
ing on what you do know. There are
some spiritual facts clear enough, plen-
ty of Christian duties plain enough to
you; act Immediately on those. Do
faithfully all you know you ought to
do, and the larger knowledge will fol-
low in due time.
Use earnestly every means that will
enlarge and strengthen your Christian
life. Study the Bible. Pray without
ceasing. Don't neglect the prayer
meeting or the eSunday School. Stir ul
your Sunday school teacher, and ge,
your doubts explained. Go to the pas.
tor with your questions, and find out
the best he knows on the things that
preplex you. Keep your heart warm
by doing good. y. .af7
Make your life beautiful in the sight
OF men, and show them the sweetness
and power of Christianity. Be con
scientious in little things. Let the
Masters spirit shine through every
hour of your life. In school, in shop,
or field, in society, the young Christian
ought to be the most faithful, the most
generous and kindly, the noblest ofany
person there.
Follow Christ. Seek to reproduce
his traits In your life. Do always as
You would believe he would do il he
were in your place to you will have a
growing, joyful, successful Christian
career.

! Come, Labor On.


Come, labor on:
Who dares stand idle on the harvest plain,
While all around him waves the golden grain
And every servant hears the Master say,
Go, work to-day" asl
Come labor on:
The laborers are few, the field is wide;
New stations must be illedand blanks supplied
From voices distant far, or near at home,
The call is ''Come."
Come, labor on:
The enemy is watching, night and day,
To SOW the tares, to snatch the seed away;
While we in sleep our duty have forgot,
He slumhereth not.
Come, labor on:
Away with gloomy doubt and faithless fear!
No arm so weak but may do service here;
BY hands the feeblest can our God fulfill
His righteous will.
Come, labor on:
No time for rest, till glows the western sky,
While the long shadows o'er our pathway lie,
And glad sound comes with the sitting sun
Servant, well done."
Come, labor on:
The toll is pleasant and the harvest sure;
Blessed are those who to the end endure;
How full their Joy, how deep their rest shall be
o Lord, with thee,

Every year increases the popularity
of this valuable Hair Preparation; !;
which is due to merit alone. We can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard; and it
is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring GRAY OR FADED
HAIR to its youthful color. making it
soft, lustrous, and silken.. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white and clean.
1t removes all eruptions and dandruff,
and, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, as it stimu-
fates and nourishes the hair-glands.
By its use, the hair grows thicker and
stronger. In badness, it restores the
capillary glands to their normal vigor,
and will create new growth, except
in extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR DREssINGeyer used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
gives the hair, splendid, glossy ap-
pearance. A. A. Hayes, MD, State
Assayer of Massachusetts,, says, "The
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and ]
consider it the BEST PREPARATION
for its intended purposes"

CONTACT with all strong characters is
apt TO leave its impress. Both Tor good
and evil we are made plastic to influ-
ence OF this social quality. Centuries
ago il passed into proverb that "he
that walketh with wise men shall be
wise; but the companions of fools
shall be destroyed" There is Il con-
tagi0n about powerful nature which
propagates itself by mysterious ways.
1t used to be tabled in our British home
that the kings touch cured scrofula.
The touch of kingly men has wrought
marvels. A glance of Napleon's eye
made many a French youth incapable
forever of being anything but soldier.
Simply John Howard passing along the
fevered alleys of the prison hospitals,
cured more than the sick within the
prison walls. He cured hundreds of
burly Englishmen outside those walls
OF the worse disease of selfishness, and
begot philanthropies which have never
died. The biography of great men is
full of tokens OF this power, given or
received. Now, of all individuals who
have ever lived in this world, the one
who has had most of this moulding
power over the souls of men has been
Jesus of Nazareth. He has had, of any
being who ever lived in our world,
most Of that peculiar quality of power
which fascinates, inspires, and trans
forms other men. See how it wrought
when he was on earth. That little
company of Christ's associates, though
small, contained elements the most
divine. Yetthey all attracted by him,
ard over them all he exerted a trans
he stamped them as with the unmis-
taxable token of himself He bound
them to him by ties which led most of
them to martyrdom for his sake. Hel
marked them for his own. They wore
his mark in life and in bloody death. |
Everywhere you meet class of men
and women wearing peculiar type of
character, animated by a kindred senti-
ment, seeking similar aim. Inn
measurably different in other respects
they are as one in this. They wear the
marks of Christ. Over them all, how
ever sundered, he has some way exer-
cised Transforming sway. His
character has moulded theirs. They
are different every hour of their lives
because of him. A personality other
than their own has swayed, inspired,
ana taken possession OF them, ana that
personality is his. Jesus of Nazareth
has some way been with them, and
they are what they are because of it.
Yes, contact with Jesus does produce a
perceptable result. 1t did while he
lived. 1t has ever since. 1t does
now. Consider the duration of that in
fuence. 1t seems to be hedestiny of
all merely human influence to wane
away with the process of time. Itmay
indeed last long, but decay creeps over
it. Men feel it less and less as years go
by. But the influence of Jesus does not
die. 1t is as fresh and operative to-day
as it was thousand year ago. 1t
moves men as deeply and transforms
them as completely as then. 1t lives
perennial in power.-Dr. G. L. Walk
