ALL my life long have my steps been attended
Surely by One who regarded my ways:
Tenderly watched over, sweetly befriended.
Blessings have followed my nights and NV

Tears have been quenched in the sunshine of

Anthems of sorrow been turned into song.
Angels have guarded the gateways of sadness.

All in the dark would be- and uncertain

Who nom the future removes the dim curtain

No other friend could so patiently lead me-;
No other friend prove so faithful and strong:
With angels food He has promised to feed me
Who has befriended me all my life long.

Infinite love will the finite outlssti
But for my Heavenly Fathers assurance.

Antiquity and Durabil1tv OF
Brick.

The palaces of Cresus, Mausoleus
and Attalus, and other extremely an
clent buildings, were constructed of
hard-burnt red brick. At the decline
OF the Roman Empire briek-makirg
fell, to great extent, into disuse. and
was revived again by the Italians after
a lapse of some centuries. The
medieval, secular and ecclesiastical
architecture of Italy abounds with
fine examples of brick and terra-cotta
work, and decorations of great beauty
have been executed in those materials.
Brick-making arrived at its greatest
perfection in the reign of Henry VIII,
IN England, and some Of the finest
known specimens of ornamental brick
work constructed in that reign are
still the subject of admiration, and

rebuilding London after the great fire
in 1866, brick was the material univer-

and laws regulating the sizes, thick

that time made and enforced for the
better protection of the community.

Touching Incident.

ONE consistent. earnest follower of
Christ in family, a school, or a COM
munity, is continual blessing. The
influence and example of such pres
ence, though they may not always win
great numbers to good, will prevent
many from worse evil.
Among the pupils of a fashionable
female boarding-schoo1 there was one
Christian girl. Of all the noble work
she did there in her quiet way, and all
the results of her fidelity and pleasant
usefulness, Heaven alone keeps the
record. We only know that she was
instrumental In turning a single class
mate, gay young lady, from one of
frivolous pleasure to life of earnest
religious devotion.
That young lady, when her school
days were over, went back to a home
where she was beloved and INDUCED.
but where not a member of the family
felt the least religious sympathy with
her, or understood at all the new de-
votion and the nobler motives that con-
trolled her.
Unable to consent to the DESTINY
which her parents had marked out for
to become leader in gay circles,
and shine star in fashionable society
she now found her greatest delight
in helping the unhappy, and in unset
fish laborS for such as poverty and sin
had shut up in darkness.
She asked her old Sunday-school
Superintendent to, give her class to
teach, but he had not heard of the
change in her, and treated the appli-
cation of the once trifing. girl as an
irreverent Jest.
The next Sabbath she led into the
school a poor little street boy, and
gained permission to begin class by
herself. That boy was delighted with
his new privilege, became warmly at
tached to his teacher, and rapidly
drank in the truths he heard
But his parents were angry that he
attended the Sunday School, and his
father whipped him to make him stay
away. Finding that he must get his
Sunday teaching at such price, with
pathetic quaintness,, the little fellow
begged to know if he could not be al
lowed to take the whipping Sabbath
morning, and then go, to school after
wards, and not have it to think of.
At this, singular putting of the case,
the father relented Little, and instead
of threatening, promised him reward
if he would attend the Sunday School
no more. He was required to peddle
apples all the week. He. should have
the money for all he sold on Saturday
afternoons.
Hoping for no better terms from his
father, the boy now undertook to
make terms with his, teacher. His
time was his own (eOnditirnally) ON
Saturday afternoons. He asked the
young lady if he might come to her
then and be taught, instead of ON Sum
days She willingly consented, and
this arrangement continued for some
time, to the profit and pleasure of both.
Finally terrible accident happened
to the little boy He was at the depot
enc day supplying apple through the
car windows to the passengers on a
train, when his foot slipped as the cars
started forward, and he fell under the
wheels, and had both his legs cut off.
"Shall / live to get home?'' he whis-
peSed to the surgeon who attended him.
"No, my poor lad, you are dying
now"
Then tell 'ern that / died a Chris
tian,'' and he expired. Youths Com

Home and School.

This is the name of a very
popular journal, published by
j. P. Morton & Co., Louisville,
Ky. It has been one of our ex-
changes since its initial number,
and though good at first, it has
steadily increased in interest
and usefulness until it justly
claims a position among the
first educational journals Of the
land. The March numbers be-
fore us, and like all of its pre-
decessors, is filled with choice
original matter. We have of
ten called the attention Of our
teachers to this monthly, as we
are confident that it would be
of incalculable benefit to them.
A glance at the table of con-
tents would convince any one
of this fact. Send $3.50 to j.

Did Christ Speak Greek ?

| Mr.. Editor:
Some kind friend having sen
me q copy of the Western Chris
tian Advocate, / could do no les.
than look it over. In doing 80
ran against some very curious
statements. On page sos will be
found what is called an 'Interna.
tional Bible Lesson" The text
on which the sermon is founded
says that Christ cured a deaf and
stammering man in the following
manner, viz:
He put His fingers into the
mans ears, and having spit he
touched his tongue, He then
said, "Ephphata" - that is ap.
parently an Armenian word sig.
inifying ''Be thou opened"
The preacher goes on to say
that OF course the putting of the
fingers Of Christ into the mans
ears, the splitting and touching
of the mans tongue had no viz
tue in themselves, could effect
nothing, and evidently were not
curative means; that they were
only symbols, and that the COM
mand "Ephphata'' was the only
efectual agent. He then says
that Christ usually spoke Greek,
but when under intense emotion
he fell back on his mother tongue
and used the Armenian language,
to which he was born, and in
which he was educated. Now,
Mr.. Editor, | wish this preacher
to give some further information,
viz: What proof is there that all
the acts of Christ, except the
word uttered, were totally useless.
What proof is there that Christ
was ever SO influenced by emotion
that he dropped the use of the
Greek and fell back to the use of
the Armenian ? and lastly, what
proof is there that Christ used
Greek in any case ? 1t is a very
curious assertion that he habitu-
ally used Greek when addressing
multitude, when the language
of the country was Armenian. =
If he used a language unintelligi.
bic to his hearers, it is evidently
an entirely new phase of the sub.
ject, and deserves very careful ex.
animation, as to the effects which
it might or did have on its hear
ers, and also as to why such an
apparently useless use of G foreign
language was made.
