How to Prevent Wandering Thoughts
in Prayer.

|. To make our prayers short and
frequent, rather than lengthy, and stop
at once when we find our thoughts
straying very MISUNDERSTANDING,
perhaps, to Bible reading for little
while, and then resuming our prayer.
2. To take sometimes verse or a
few verses from a Psalm, or one of the
prayers in the Epistles, and turn it into
prayer instead of using only your own
words.
3. To take the Lords prayer as a
foundation, charging on the separate
petitions, and making them meet our
present needs.
4. To take up the special anxiety
which may be depressing and worrying
our mind, and make that our prayer for
the moment. Many think it would be
too trifling, almost prOfane, to go to
God in prayer because We have har-
assing letter to answer, or an account
we can't make straight, or something in
our daily business which perpleXes us,
and so they go on trying to ask for
something which, at the moment, they
have not at heart, instead of the thing
which is really nearest them at the
moment. II a thing is important enough
to worry you, it is worth praying about (;
asking God at the same time not to let
small things come between you and
your peace with him. A spot on the
lens of the telescope may blot out the
sun to our eyes. Lastly, let us take all
these things to the Saviour, and ask
him who has compassion on our in
firmities to heal us, day by, as we pray
and never let any cloud of this kind, or
any kind, keep us from looking up
gratefully, lovingly, and cheerfully, to
him, whose eye is always lovingly bent
on his weak children.

Manchester's death-lst for July num-
bered 95, the largest for any month in
the history of the city, nine funerals
taking place in one day during the
heated term. Seventy-three of the
deaths were among the foreign popula-
ton, cholera infantum, measles and
diptheria being the principal diseases.
Only 20 marriage certificates were issu-
ed during the month.
Strange accidents are regular part
of summer news, but few stranger are
reported than the fate of little girl in
the fields near Salem, o. She stood
near the horses that were pulling hard
at load of hay. A trace broke, and
the whiffie-tree, flying back, hit her in
the head and killed her.
Friendship, N. Y, has had duel be-
tween two school-boys. The usual ar
engagements were made, but the sec
onds used blank cartridges. At the
first fire one one of the duelists jumped
behind tree until his opponent fired,
and then springing suddenly out fred
two shots in quick succession, threw
down his revolver and ran. He fell in
to creek in his blind haste and was
nearly drowned.

How TO KEEP SITUATION.-Be
ready to throw in an odd half-hour or an
hours time when it will be an accOmmo-
datiOn, and don't seem to make merit
of it. Do it heartily. Though not a
word he said, your employer will make
a note of it. Make yourself indispensa-
BILE to him, and he will lose many of the
opposite kind before he will part with
you. Those young men who watch the
clock to see the very second their work
ing hour is up-who leave, no matter
what state the work may be in, at pre-
cisely the instant-whO calculate the eX-
ira amount they can slight their work,
and yet not get reproved-who are Law
ish of their employers goods-will al
ways be the first to receive notice, when
times are dull, that their services are nc
longer required.

Safe Arrival of the Bold Voyagers.

A London special says that the little
boat Nautilus, arrived in Mounts Bay,
an inlet on the coast of Cornwall be-
tween the horns of Cornwall, England.
William and Walter Andrews, of Bos-
ton, landed in the village of Mullion,
Cornwall, appearing greatly fatigued.
For few days after leaving the Amer
lean coast they experienced fair weather,
but it soon changed, and fogs, winds
and rain prevailed for considerable
period. Their bedclothes got quite wet,
and for four weeks they had to sleep in
wet clothes. Many days they could
take no sleep, and were worked so hard
by reason of bad weather that they
could scarcely eat or drink anything.
For eighteen days they never saw the
sun, and could take no observations.
They sailed through several schools of
whales and spoke several steamers and
sailing vessels. From the list of July
to the Goth, they had terrible weather,
and broke their chrOnOmeter. William
seems to have felt the strain the most.
Walter looks better, but he has a bad
hand caused by SO much steering. The
whole passage occupied As days.
n For the first few years of life,
the parent is to the child; with hardly
any qualification in the place of God.
The home is the first temple in which
man wOrships. The parent is the i'm
PRESERVATION of perfection. And if, in
striving after that perfection, as the
child will do almost before he can
speak, he is not guided by the melodi-
GUS harmony of parental love embracing
his parents and uniting in himself, his
whole nature, intellectual as well as
moral, may from the first be stunted.-

The Home Beyond.

The Christian should always be mind
full of the country to which he is going. If
the paternal hearth be the rallying- place
of our earthly affections, how should the
supremest affection gather around the
heavenly home What heaven is and
where it is-for it is not less a place
than a cOnditiOn-and what God has
prepared for those who love Him, we
may not know till the river is crossed
and we reach the further shore, and we
hear the Masters welcome "Well done !"
We may well be thankful that, whatever
be the heavenly joys in store for the re-
deemed, upon all these things we look
through glass darkly. 1t is well that
cloud-land lies upon the river which we
are crOssing-and so, the OthershOre hid
den from us, we are made more willing to
stay till we hear His call, ''COme hither."
SO let the Christian be ever mindful of
the country to which he is going. Here
we tarry for night; but in those bless
ed fields which lie beyond our sight,
alone is that which abideth and knoweth
no change. The Christian who lives in
the world, doing his work yet ever
mindful of the country to which he is
hastening,-he alone truly lives and
carries the sunshine of heaven in his
heart. And when heaven is in the heart
there is no room for the world to enter.
