Obeying Gods Call.

A great many Christians miss the
richest blessing by throwing on Others
what God would throw on them. A
parent feels an unusual concern for his
child and refers it to the Sunday school
teacher. A teacher teels an intense
concern for her class, and satisfies it by
urging them to come to some meetings
where she hopes they may be impressed.
A Christian feels anxious for his neigh
Dor and satisfies that anxiety by bring
ing that neighbOr out to church. All
these things are very well, but they
stop short of the divine call. That call
has personal intent. When God moves
the heart of the Sunday school teacher
to yearn for her scholars, he intends she
shall go to them herself. If he had
wanted another, he would have called
another.
You have often felt an impulse for
the spiritual uplifting of some one about
you. You have often felt peculiar
drawing towards some special Christian
work. If every such impulse were
Obeyed, how the church of God would
arise in her strength 1t is the resist
ing of these gentle impressions that
hardens us and bewilders us. We do
not heed the divine voice, and we soon
come not to know the voice when we
hear it.
Be sure and do yourself what God
asks you to do, even though he ask you
by the gentlest breathing. Obey the
gentlest impression of the divine Spirit,
and you will not only find yourself en-
riched thereby, but you will also find
that the same Spirit which spoke to you,
has gone before you to prepare the way,
and will go with You to guide and help.
God always speaks softly. He never
comes in the storm, or the thunder, OF
the earthquake, but always in ''the still
small voice." But there are rich bless
ings and large results in store for those
who listen and hear when he speaks.
We are barren in our lives because we
suppress so much of the best impulses
that ever come to us.
When God speaks to you, therefore,
be sure you hear him. When he lays Il
work on your soul, be sure you do not
lay it off on some one else, no matter
how poorly you may be furnished. God
furnishes us for the work to which he
calls us, and he will multiply your gifts
as you use them, just as he did the
loaves as the disciples brake them

fnr the Children.
A Boys Experience with Tar Marbles

Almost all boys, at some period of
their lives, devote their spare time to
playing marbles, and | certainly was
not unlike other boys in this respect.
My fondness for marbles began very
early, and when l was about seven
years old led me into Il curious expert
ence, which | am about to relate. A
great rivalry for acquiring marbles had
suddenly arisen at that time among the
boys of the town, and to possess as
many of the little round beauties as my
oldest brother owned, soon became the
desire of my heart and the height of
my ambition.
had already obtained large num-
Der, when one day | overheard my old
est brother telling one of his school
mates that he had made the important
discovery that marbles could be formed
from cOal-tar, of which there was a
large quantity on a certain street in IL
distant part of the town. He did not
condescend to explain the process of
manufacture, but he showed the mar
bles he had made,-black. round, and
glossy. The sight inspired me with
ardent desire to possess an unlimited
quantity.
My brother told me just where the
coveted treasure was to be found, and,
in the afternoon, | started off, without
cOntiding to any one my intention, to
find the spot and lay in a supply of the
raw material, which / could convert in
to marbles when | had leisure. 1t was
a very hot July afternoon, and / was
in violent heat; but the sight of the
heaps of coal tar put all thoughts OF
anything unpleasant quite out of my
head; it caused me to forget also that
| had on a suit of new clothes, of which
| had been cautioned by my mother to
be extremely careful.
l need hardly remark that | was not
very well acquainted with the sub
stance l was handling, and my only
idea of its qualities was, that it could
be nodded into any shape pleased.
was not aware that it has all the quail
ties of ordinary tar,-melts with heat
and becomes the toughest, stickiest
most unmanageable of substances will
which a small boy can come into con
tact.
fell to work to collect what want
ed to carry home. / filed the pocket
of my pantaloons, and of my jacket
and lastly, when these were stuffed t,
their utmost capacity, filled the crow
of my hat so full that it would hardl,
go on my head. The place was at som,
distance from my home, and did no
: wish to have to return Immediately TO
more.
With heart filled with triumph,
started off toward home. By this tim,
, began to realize that the weather wa
not cool. 1t had been long walk, ant
5 l was pretty tired, but was also in I
} great hurry to begin making marbles
so l walked as fast as could. After
} little time began to be sensible of
! disagreeable feeling of sickness abou

An Evening Talk with Mothers.

Are you very tired, tonight Have

Your boys may seem careless of your
words, but, tired mothers, the echo will

though you feel sometimes that they

Christians the Light of the World.

1.-THE Rev. Dr. Horatius Bonar at the Mildmay
Conference, England.l
''Arise, shine, for thy light is come,
and the glory of the Lord is risen upon
thee - This seems to me IA special
message to each one of us. .'Arise,
shine, for thy light is come !" "God is
light, and in him is no darkness at all )"
and we should resemble him-we are
to be light. Not in the same sense in
which he is light-that can never be !;
but still, in Il subordinate sense, we are
to be what he is-receiving light from
him, who is the Father of lights, and
from whom cOmeth down every good
and perfect gift, and in whom is no
variableness neither shadow of turning
81 am the Light of the world" said the
Master when he was here. aye are the
light of the world" he added also
LAS he was, SO are we in this world"
"The more sure word of prophecy is
said to be "a light shining in dark
place, until the day dawn and the Day
star arise" Such is every Christian to
be a light shining in dark place
until the day dawn and the Day-star
arise.
We little know how much in the way
of indirect influence we exercise in be-
ing lights of the world. We do not
need to Obtrude our light forcibly upon
men. Light is always best when it ex-
ercises IA silent influence. And the in
tiuence of light is IL blessed one, whether
it comes directly from the cross of
Christ, or indirectly from us who have
seen that cross. The power of light is
1 hon
with us when we shine. The power of
light is healing power, and we carry
health with us when we shine. The
power of light is a strengthening power
and we carry strength with us when we
shine. Ever let us shine, and remem-
Der that if the world be not the better
for us in these respects, it will be the
worse.
An inconsistent Christian, or Chris
tan whose light has gone out, whose
lamp has ceased to burn, is most in,
furious Christian. He cannot be a me-
dunn one he must either benefit the
world, or the world will be the worse
for him. Beware of having the name
of Christ and not witnessing for him il
the light of your daily life, and thereby
influencing for good the dark world by
the light-we may call it feeble-whict
shines from you. 1t was said of JOIN
the Baptist, "Many shall rejoice at hi
birth,"-nOt merely that they stood
round his couch and were glad at hi
birth but many, everywhere, rejoice,
that that child was born. Oh is it mo-
blessed thought, that if we were al
living out the life we should live, anC
showing the light we should give ont
there are thousands yet unborn tina
would bless the day when we came int,
the world ''Arise, shine, for thy Iigh
is come, and the glory of the Lord i
risen upon thee ~

And now some hard-hearted wretch
claims to have seen Charley Ross at
Milan, Italy, about year ago and
again within few weeks. A party OF
Americans noticed the boy with a
strolling band of musical beggars, saw
that he seemed to understand the En-
glish language, and when one OF them
said, "Charlie, come to me-" he started
to do so, but was roughly hurried away
by his keepers, two swarthy Italians.
They have disappeared, but it seems
plain enough that if it wasn't Charley
Ross who played their ACCORDION, ii
was somebody's stolen child.

Cow Mixers.


Many inquiries have been made in
regard to milking machines - replies
to these by mail have been impractical
BILE on account of their number. We
therefore take this opportunity of stat
ing what we know of this machine.
The idea of milking COW by means of
a mechanical device, is attractive on
the face of it, because this operation is
one of the most irksome of all farm
labors. There has been prejudice
against the use of any other methods of
milking than the old fashioned one, and
we confess to have felt to some extent
the influence of this prejudice, and
have been very cautious in referring to
the milking machine. For exceptional
use in the cases of sore or chapped
teats, hard milking cows, gargeted or
caked udder, and other similar difficult
ties, there has never been a question as
to the necessity for using IA milkeI !;
some such means is Indispensable. But
for general use to save time and labor,
we have not previously been able to
say that the machine was advisable.
After personal trial we must admit
that we have been forced to modify our
previous opinions. The tubes, of pure
silver, are inserted carefully in the teat,
the milk having been first started, to
allow the opening to be found. The
pure India rubber tubes then conduct
the milk, which flows freely into the
pail. That is all there is of it. Care
must be taken to use only such ma
chimes lis are of pure material, and after
the milking to put the tubes into some
clean, cold water, and well free them
from milk. In using the machine, we
find it operates as follows: 1t draws
the milk so entirely away that none can
be procured by stripping; it acts APP
parently with much ease and comfort
to the COW, our animals evidently show
ing much surprise and pleasure at the
freedom from the usual manipulation
of the teats, and turning the head and
viewing the novel process seemingly
with great interest; the milk pOurs with
great rapidity, a large pail, holding
fourteen quarts- being filed in seven
minutes; the process is perfectly clean,
and the milk gathers no impurities, as
in the usual handling of the teats and
udder, in which numerous scales Of
skin, hairs, and ''cowy" favored mat
luto
The relief from the muscular exertiOn
of the wrists and arms, is very grateful
to the mixer. So far we are certain.
Of the future effect upon the COW we
are not prepared to say, because this is
a matter which can only be learned by
the continued use of the mixer; but
there is evidence that the machine has
been used in noted Scotch dairy for
eight years, and this may go for some
thing. AS it is, we shall continue to
use it, and take whatever risk there
may be. AS the tube is very small,
and is retained in the teat only three or
four minutes, and the teat is to be
stripped down always after finishing
milking, we apprehend no evil results.
For the introduction of the mixer into
this country, we are indebted to Mr..
VIM. Crozier, of NorthpOrt, Long Island,
who has introduced several useful i'm
plements to American farmers.-Amer-

follows: "The season to September 10
will be warm to hot, with warm Iains
mostly from the east, and a few thunder
showers from south of west to west, all
to clear off warm. There will he more
rain in August than in July, and the
