breath came quick and trembling. Oh,

view of the first ineffable Joy of hear

A Poor Huckster's Life.

Ann B was huckster IN one OF
the markets of Philadelphia. Her call
ing obliged her to visit the wharves at
night, and to come in contact with the
toughest class of men and women, but
she passed among them as safely as
a duchess through drawing-room full
of mobiles.
No man ever spoke to her but in
tones of respect. Yet she had neither
youth, beauty, nor education. She
was but an ignorant, middle-aged, com.
mon-place huckster, and added to this,
an humble, faithful Christian. Her
pure heart showed even in her steady
eye and low voice.
~ don't know anything about the
Christianity of the big churches" said
back porter on the wharf; but do
know Aan b, and believe in the
God that makes her what she is.
Nothing could be more homely and
touching than the cheerful faith with
which this woman brought her Master
into all the trivial happenings of her
everyday life.
II was coming to my work in the
horse she said once, and look
ing out ut the great houses and fine la
dies in their carriages, felt discour-
aged, they could do so much to help
others as the Lord told us and what
could do with but ten cents in my
pocket?
II just prayed to Him to give me a
chance, and o minute later 1 noticed
that the woman beside me was crying.
"She was weak little body, and
was trying to carry two children. l
took one of them, and we fell to talk
ing, and found that her husband was
a mason. He had gone to work on a
hotel in Atlantic City, and she had just
heard that he had fallen and broken his
leg. She had not penny to take her
to him, and was going to walk.
81 thought, now my chance has
come And took long breath and
spoke out loud,-
go Ladies and gentlemen, will you
listen to this woman's story| So l told
it just as she told me, ana gentleman
passed round his hat, and the people
in the car gave enough to send her to
her husband, and to keep her for a
month";"
A wealthy lady who was in the Car,
struck by AIMS simple earnestness,
made her her aimoner, and for years
tho good woman went up and down
among the poor of Philadelphia, bring
ing comfort to both body and soul.
Such women, whether poor or rich,
commend Christianity to the world
as their Master commended it-and the
world acknowledges its Divine power.
