Holiness in Daily Life.

HOLINESS is opposed to all harsh and
irritating forms of expression. Its tone is
that OF Kindness, gentleness and love. In
the home.circle, to children and servants,
there should be nothing but kind words
and loving modes of address. No matter
how irritating their conduct, it must be
met with patience perfect patience, Mr..
Fletcher saws, is one of the stars of this
peculiar constellation, Christian perfec-
tionl. and no word must be uttered contrary
to pure love.
In the place of business, among en-
ployes, in the factory or store, there love
must sit enthroned at the door of the lips.
A harsh, hasty, or bitter word, spoken in
the ears of dependents, by professor of
Holiness, will eat as doth canker When
the speaker is gone, there will be the
sheer and the sarcastic, II told you sor'
Alas, that Holiness is sometimes in this
way wounded in the house of its friends.
True Holiness ought to have sublime
mastery here.
Holiness precludes harsh and unchar-
table judgment. The words of the Great
Teacher, at this point are weighty, and
should be deepl. pondered, Judge not,
that We be not judged. For with what
judgment ye judge, we shall be judged
and with what measure ye mete, 1t shall
be measured to you again. And why be-
hOldest thou the mote that is in thy
brothers eye, but considerest not the beam
that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt
thou say to thy brother, let me pull out
the mote out Of thine eye; and, behold, a
beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypo-
critic, first cast out the beam out of thine
own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly
to cast out the mote out of thy brothers
eye"
These precious words of Jesus, if gen
orally followed. would prevent world of
mischief. Perfect love must and will Sc
cure such a following. 'Out of the
abundance of the heart the mouth speak
eth" A heart full of perfect love will
bring the tongue under the same elevated
dominion. One of the crying evils of the
day among protesting Christians is that
of uncharitable judging. And we have
known some professors of Holiness who
did not hesitate to indulge in unkind and
damaging expressions in regard to absent
persons. They are deceived who suppose
that such course is compatible with the
enjoyment of Christian Holiness. The
worst form which this practice of judg-
ing assumes is that of pronouncing upon
the motive governing any particular act or
mode OF life What a presuInptuouS thing
is this. Who can read the heart? God
only. And shall weak, shortsighted NOR
tails dare to invade the domain of Om-
niscience? Yet it is done. frequently.
Reputation is thus rudely handled, and
Christianity has terrible stigma put upon
it. Guide to Holiness.

The Pleasure Of Doing Good.

A MIsERLy farmer returning home one
spring day from delivering load of hay,
was overtaken by severe rain. The only
shelter lear was shed-li house where
a poor widow had lately died. Stopping
his team he ran to the front door, which
was partially protected by boards project
ing from the roof. Standing close to it
he heard tender voices within, and listened
to ascertain what was being said, when he
was surprised by the following little pray
err: Heavenly Father, ma told us before
she died that you would take care of us
and give us some bread. Now, sister and
me are very hungry, and we have no one
to help US. Please, Heavenly Father,
send us some bread" This hit the old
man in a tender part Still he might have
endured it had the matter ended there,
but it did not. When the boy seemed ex-
hausted, and knew not what more to say,
little girl prayed in still more pathetic
strains: 30 Lord, please send brother
and me some bread ma said You would,
and we are very hungry" This was too
much for the miser's heart, hard and self
ish as it was. He could stand it no
longer, and hurried home. Without saying
word to his wife he took his big
basket and went down cellar and filled 1t
with the best eatables he could find, en-
bracing pies, cakes, apples, etc., heaping
it up as he did not when he sold corn,
and FASTENED back to the door in the
rain. and finding the sufferers still at
prayer, he pushed right in and set his
basket before them and invited them to
eat, which they were more than willing
to do. 1t was q good time for them, but
better for him. They said to each other,
''We thought what mother told us was
true, but we did not expectth Lord would
answer our prayers in this way"
When they were fully satisfied, the old
man emptied his basket and told the dear
orphans how to take care of their food,
and gave them many kind words, for ali
of which they thanked him from their
inmost hearts. He then went home and
informed his wife what he had done, and
confessed that, though it had been a

About sixty of the Nimrods of New
Hanover County, N. c., started one day
recently in pursuit of an animal supposed
to be a lioness. The hunters were divided
into cavalry and infantry, and armed with

beast was overtaken and shot. But the
game, when killed, was not dead lion at
all; it was only the carcass of big yell

is now considered impolite.
