PRAYER,

Joseph Cook, in the preliminary remarks
to one of his recent lectures in Boston said :
Prayer, it has commonly been taught, has
four Clements confession, thanks
giving, petition. hold that we must always
add a fifth part, namely, total self-surrender
All the four parts without the fifth are what
the Scriptures call vain repetition aud not
prayer. If man offers prayer in the full
sense he may be assured in the name of
natural law that he will obtain religious aid
of kind that he can receive from no other
source. Men who revere the scientific
method will admit that experiment is the
crucial test of truth. Who ddres try the er-
pertinent Of prayer in the sense Of total and

scholar has lately told the public that

replied, " but | am willing to be sincere in
one prayer at least" Z" Very well" said the
evangelist, " let us kneel down here and now

He rose up, saying This is singular ex-
perience. My partner, do you do as have
done, aud perhaps there will be similar re-
suits" The partner was a skeptic, but he

The Duty Done.

A Presbyterian minister tells the follow
ing story: lie was at one time pastor of "A
church III a town where the richest aud il
every way most prominent man was uotori-
ously neglecter of religion and openly hos
tile TO the ministers. Seeing the old man il
his carriage before a store in the place one
day, he felt a strange impulse to go near and
Join himself to this chariot aud ask the
liberty of visiting him, that he might preach
the Saviour. Fearing Il scene he reirained,
aud was conscence-smitten. Six weeks
later he met The carriage on the street again,
and the impulse was renewed aud the same
words suggested. He immediately consulted
one of his judicious deacons, who advised
him not to visit him. He would be driven
from the door, there would be a scandal,
and he would become an object of derision.
But he could not rest. He felt it was God
calling him to go near and join the god
less old man, and, in disobedience to advice,
the next day he approached the stately
mansion, trembling. He saw the old man
and was seen by him. The door was opened.
He expected insult. Instead, two trembling
hands were extended in welcome, and the
strange words uttered, 81 have been looking

Pet the Older Ones.

1t sometimes occurs to us that the babies
get more than their share of petting-not tha'
anybody can help it. The dear little DIM
pied things, with their sweet ways and thei
helpless dependence, and the charm of som
new revelation every day, invite our careSse
and our whole store OF complimentary adj e.
tives. Darling, and treasure, and the coul-
mon stock of nouns of end-arment aud ap
probation, come easily to our lips when w.
talk to the little ones. How often we drol
these pretty forms of speech as they grow
older. They leave the cunning age behind
aud graduate into the awkward one. Girl.
aud boys alike pass through a period When
they are shy, sensitive, morbid and self-con
Scious, yet perhaps withal arrogant, con
ceited and opiuionated. With what match

and parade notions on subjects which have

fathers aud mothers too often feel impatient
aud disappointed. They do not remember
that this queer husk will fall away, and from
it emerge IA flower by-andby. So gradually
and insensibly do mothers lose the habit OF
caressing their older children that the latter
would look very much surprised at kiss
bestowed out of the regular way. The habit
of morning aud evening salute is kept il
families where it is merely mechanical anC
perfunctory. Yet that is better than NJ
kiss at all. The magnetism of mother-love
shown to the boy or girl, however unamia
ble their transitory mood may be, is strong
enough TO save them from much unhappf
ness, or from the attack of temptation. d,

you feel diffident in taking up what shoulC

Church going One Hundred Years Ago.

III we would form a vivid conception of
the state Of things one hundred years ago
we must lose sight of the wonderful inven-
tions and discoveries, the conveniences and
comforts that distinguish the present age !;
we must forget for the time our national
greatness-the towns, cities and states that
have sprung up as if by magic; we must
look out upon an almost unbroken wilder
ness, and see the brave and hardy pioneer
engaged in levelling forests, contending with
wild men and savage men, and in the midst
of peris and privations, laying the founda-
tions of civil, religious and educational insti-
tutions, which are the glory of the present
period. When we think of church-going we
must forget the fashionably dressed and un-
disturbed assemblies of the present, and
imagine great congregations of people as
sembled in the woods, Gods first temples
there to prais and worship their Creator
the men, and sometimes even the women,
armed, are sentinels keeping watch at a dis
tance, lest prowling savages should rush upon
them with tomahawk and scalping-knife
We must forget our splendid cathedrals with
their stained glass windows, cushioned seats
and brilliant chandeliers, and think of rude
log buildings, such as the early settlers were
accustomed to worship in, rooted with clap
boards and seated with rough benches, with
out any stoves or heating apparatus of any
kind; for in those days the people regarded
even a stove as needless provision for the
flesh, an innovation upon the well-established
customs of coolness, and even desecration
of Gods house. They expected the minis
ters to warm themselves up by their preach
ing, and this they often did. 1t is related
that one very cold day, while Mr.. John Nc

Who is to attack the strong fortress of error
and evil Who is to visit the sick, and the
fatherless, and the widowed Who is to
plead with the tempted Who is to scatter
the seeds of life and light in all dead and
dark places A sin of omission is setting
aside some positive duty involving action,
fidelity, and the putting forth of beneficent
power. Repeat it, and it may leave one post
after another, and finally the whole field of
activity, unnamed and unoccupied. A
small sin Why, it vacates the central and

Blue MONDAYS.

All have heard of them. They are tradi-
tional. In some way it has come to pass
that many believe they are at liberty to be
blue and even expected TO take that color
when starting afresh at the work of the week.
We are unable to see any reason whatever
for the existence of blue Mondays among
those who have kept the festival Of the Sab
bath in proper way, unless it be that reac-
ton which sometimes happens after very de-
lightful exultations of the mind. What we
are now wishing to express is most conf
dent belief that well-spent Sabbath should
be a fit preparation for happy renewal OF
the common work OF the week. 1t is not
well to be so religious on Sunday as to have
none of the right soul of religion left for
Monday. What are all our studies, exer-
cises, hymns, prayers on the Lord's-day
worth personally to any worshipper, if they
be not followed by betterment OF spirit
If we cannot derive some help from the sane
tuary TO enable us TO meet and bear hard
ships, troubles and cares, it may be taken
Tor granted that we have asked amiss. Mon
day mornings ought to be as radiant as the
face of Moses when he descended from the
mount alter communing there with Cod
Christian at Work.

Mr. johnson said, " that for his part he
had always noticed that people went up just
as high as the power inside of them would
push them" "Yes," said Miss Hunt, " as a
