I6 In the best of books we read of para
disc where our first parents were placed.
There we're four things given to man in bis
condition of happiness. There were laws de.
fining good from evil; there was the Sabbath
which was To be kept holy. There was the
work to be done-to till the ground and keep
it. The first thing that God gave to man in
the garden, was happy home, when be put
husband and wife together and there founded
the first household. If you want to make
your life happy, it is necessary to have work
for brain and muscle, Sabbath rightly kept,
the sweetness and purity of happy home,
and obedience to law.-Rev John Hall.

OLD-FAsH1oNED FARM1NG.-What would
you think of the cabinet maker who should
undertake to make furniture on large scale
by means that were used eighty years ago,
saving out all the parts by hand instead of
by machinery. How would timer get
along with the old fashioned tools, disregard
ing the use of die and stamps? How would
the wagon-maker succeed shaving spokes by
hand, mortising hubs by chisel and mallet ?
Or how the shoemaker, disdaining sewing and
pegging machines? Well they might posi-
bly, make living as they turned out their
clumsy jobs, while others working by improv-
ed and best methods are getting rich. The
old-fashioned farmer with poor tools, and dis
daining book knowledge, and the modern
farmer with the best of tools and with his head
full of ideas, are parallel cases.-Mica,uba.

Matthew IL,

dies; but God, in the exercise OF his soVer'
eign love, gave his Son to die for sinners.
The sinner deserves to be driven away into
the lake that burns with fire and birthstone
but God, in an act of his sovereign mercy,
invites him to come into the vineyard and
labor, and he will give unto him eternal life
not as a reward of his labor, but because
of obedience to the heavenly command, and
receiving eternal life in the sovereign purpose
of God, are inseparably connected.
When the time for settlement came, the
steward was instructed to call the laborers
and pay each one penny, beginning with
the last. When those who began to labor
soon in the morning saw those who labored
only one hour. receiving penny, they began
to think within themselves that they would
receive more than penny. Such, however,
was not the case. All received a penny
Those who had labored longest began to mur'
mur and complain. The householder replied
to their murmurings that he had done no one
any wrong. He had agreed or contracted
with the first laborers for a penny day. He
had paid them penny, and, consequently
had acted justly and houorably. The prin'
ciple upon which the householder acted was
that it was lawful for him to do as he saw mt
with his own.
In the same way, God the great household
or of the universe, deals with all his crea'
lures. He is faithful in carrying out all his
contracts with any and all of his creatures
but at the same time he displays his sover'
eighty even in his grace. As God of prov
idence, che raiseth the poor out of the dust,
and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill.
Psalms, cxiii:7. The reason that is assigned
for his thus acting is, that the "pillars OF the
earth are the Lords" Samuel i:S. Paul
could say, "What am I am by the grace OF
God." Cor. xv: 10.
