Cows and Children.

Cows and young stock in this country
are usually familiar with men-folks,
while they see little of women and chill
dren-hence they fear and defend
themselves from them just as they
would from dogs. In the same way
many horse has been fatally gored by
a COW or heifer, simply because the lat
ter had never been made familiar with
horses. My horses are grazed more or
less In the calf pasture, and so the
calves know the horses, old and young,
and, as cows, are perfectly quiet with
them. If this is important, and think
it is, it is ten times more important that
the heifers should grow up in familiari-
ty with women and children-be driven
and fed by them more or less, and at
calving time see that children NAV
play with their calves without any
harm coming to them. If heifers pass
their first calving without getting fright
ened and distrustful of men and of chill
dren, they will always thereafter be
quiet and tractable. The practice of
turning heifers and young stock out in
the mountain pastures for the summer
lnterferes with this training, but it
should be followed all the more dill
gently in the winter. We can sell our
trained heifers and deliver them on
board cars, steamboat, or anywhere
else, with whole skins, good horns, and
unrutfied tempers, with very little at
tentlOn to their education at the proDer
griculturist.

Prayer a Privilege.

Prayer is both duty and privilege.
But it is to be feared that, by Chris
tians even, it is more often regarded as
a duty than as privilege. They pray,
not so much because they may, as be-
cause their consciences tell them that
they ought to pray. They are driven.
rather than drawn to their closets.
1t is only those that make great use
of prayer that realize how great priv
llege it is. Such persons feel that thew
couldn't live without it. They esteem
IL, as did Job the words of Gods mouth,
as more than their necessary food.
They have found, by blessed expert
ence, that it ''makes the darkened cloud
withdraw" and "brings every blessing
from above" Were they to be assured
that henceforth the way to the mercy-
seat was to be closed, and that thew
could have access to it no more. if
would be one of the saddest apnounc-
ments that could be made to them. If
is wonder. indeed, that any Christian
should need any urging to PRAYER. II
is wonder that when we have tbe
promise, ASK, and we shall receive. y
we should not avail ourselves of il TO
the utmost, and pray without ceasing
for blessings upon ourselves, and upon
others. Our praying days will soon be
past.
1t will, ere long, be said of us, as of
David, that our "prayers are ended. y
We should make the best of the privi-
lege while we may. HThe fervent. eff
fectual prayer of righteous man avail
eth much" We should be diligent in
making use of such prayer with the
prayer-hearing GOd.-N. 7. Observer.

Of Such.

"What shall do? These children
whisper, tease. play, ignore the lesson,
care nothing for spiritual things. am
discouraged almost" For your COM
fort take this. "Of such is the kingdom
of God" The children in Christ's arms
were ordinary children. He says not,
"Of perfect children is the kingdom"
but, s'of SUCH" Christ does not shut
the door of the kingdom upon them
because of their childish weaknesses
and sins. Because they are weak and
sinful he comes to save them. Their
case is not hopeless, just because they
belong to the kingdom. The proof of
that is not in them but in Christ's
words. He is able to rule them, to
overcome all his and their enemies.
Now, let them know their high calling.
Assure them of their Kings sympathy
in all their plays and ordinary life. Be
very patient, as Christ is. Keep saying
to yourself, when disheartened, ''of
SUCH" He carries the lambs in his
bosom. By the time he lets them walk,
they will, through your teaching, know
his voice and follow him.

Have We Entered into this Work

The church of God is thoroughly fur
nished with capital, with talent, with
educated, disciplined powers; and a
world is lying at its feet, begging to be
lifted up and carried to the Saviour.
But we do not realize the situation.
We call ourselves Christians, and re-
jolce in the great superiority our re-
ligiOn has conferred upon us. We think
ourselves the chosen of the Lord, and
these privileges are our birthright but
it is not SO. We may be the early
fruits of salvation, Gods older children
of the human race; but the little ones
are hungry, calling to us for the bread
of life which the Father has left with
us, saying, "Give We them to eat.n If
they perish for lack of it, are we not
guilty of our brothers blood Yea,
verify, unless we have cOnsecrated our
selves to this doing of Gods work,
whenever and wherever, and as fully
as he gives the opportunity. 1t is not
to give what we do not feel, it is not to
give grudgingly but it is continued
living upon the principle that we are
not our own. Ourselves and all that
we have are his; and the only question
is, How and where can we do the most 1?
1t is right to enjoy our beautiful homes,
our comfortable clothing, our dear
friends, our opportunities for growth
and culture but, when these come be-
tween us and the work of winning souls.
they become curse. The greater is
sacrificed to the less and this cannot
be without terrible loss both to our
selves and others.
The Lord would save us from this.
He would have us come up higher, and
join him in the work for which he laid
aside home, glory and cOmpaniOnship,
that he might grid himself for the con-
fiict, that he might minister as SER
want to the lowliest. Have we been
baptized with this spirit? Have we
entered into this work ?
Or do some of us tremblingly saw.
''There is so little we can do, the little
will not be missed ?" 1t most certainly
will be missed. The little is needed in
its place, as much as the greater where
ever that belongs. Some stand as pol
ished pillars in Gods temple, bearing
up burden that would crush us some
are as lively stones, written ali over
with his praise; some are beautiful
ornaments, carved by his own hand
with the chisel of sharp suffering; some
are strong nails driven in sure places :;
and some of us, it may be, are only the
bits of clay which unite in compacting
the whole: but one is needed Just as
much as the other, and will be as thor
oughly appreciated and rewarded. The
owner of the two talents received his
"Well done, good and faithful servant'
as heartily and as fully as he that had
five. But none of us realize the amount
of power lying buried in the napkins of
pride, slothfulness, and indifference,
which ought to be bringing in a reve-
nue. for God. The church is able to go
out now and conquer the world and it
will, when each individual, entering
into the spirit of the Master, shall be-
lieve that winning souls is life's high
est, noblest work, and when each shall
make every thing subservient, tributa-
ry, to this one end.-lrs. W. d. L..
Lore, IN Life and Light.
