Blessedness of Giving.

The true believer cannot live alone,
even in possession of Christ in this
world. If this is all he has and does,
he will be a spiritual miser. He must
impart, as well as receive. He must
have expression, as we'll as possession.
Any genuine emotion first rebels, then
sickens and dies at being voiceless and
invisible in the heart.
We have seen mOcking birds hatched
in "a cage, and these, as If taught,
through some tradition of more genial
climes and brighter skies, to which they
had been unfettered heirs, at the sight
of spring flowers and green lawns, or
when hearing the songs of other birds,
would beat their wings against theil
cages, hopping, in the expression OF
their agony, around the iron circle,
pressing their heads between the wires
giving unmistakable signs of how the
instinct of freedom still struggled to &C

Be careful, Christian, not to restrain
these transient longings. Selishnes:
will beat them back and unwing them
but let the love that Jesus inspires beat
at the cage until it is broken, and you
go forth in the freedom of Gods love.
If our hatred struggles to go out in acts
of violence, how much more our love
must be strengthened by kind acts, and
delighted and glorified in the joy it

"oh, I Don't Profess to Do Right. F."

1t by no means clears a wrong doer
of blame when he says, 81 profess moth
ing" 1t rather aggravates his guilt. 1t
is one of the counts in the indictment
against him that he processes nothing.
There are good many things that a
man ought to profess. A man pauses in
the course of business negotiation and
says to you, sit is understood, l sup
pose, that do not profess to tell the
truth in my intercourse with my neigh
bors." What reply will you make to
him think you will tell him that the
negotiation may as we'll terminate just
where it is-that it will he impossible
for you to have any further dealings
with him. A man would not recon-
mend himself to you by statement
like that. A man wishes to buy goods
of you, and says in the midst of a tran :
saction: 81 do not profess to pay my
debts" You will probably decline to
trust him. Will you invite into your
house man who tells you that he does
not profess purity7 Do you approve on
the whole the character of the man who
openly says, 81 do not profess to be-
lieve in or to practice virtue or honest
" vi ldil uCdIIuS
1t is common notion that it is bet
ter to be virtuOus or religious without
any profession or promise of virtue or
religion than with such profession or
promise in other words, that a profess
sion is not only of no service, but that
it detracts from the value of the charac-
ter. 1t is a good thing to do right,
some people seem to think, provided
You do not say anything about it; but
the instant you openly engage or prom
Use to do right you are an object of sus-
piciOn. If man means to be on the
side of right, why not he openly on the
side of right? Such secret adherence
to truth, such secret allegiance to the
kingdom of righteousness, is not natur-
al. 1t is kind of affectation. 1t is
perfectly natural for the mouth to speak
out of the hearts abundance. We have
right to demand that every man shall
not only be on the side of the interests
of virtue and morality, but that he shall
say that he is on that side. There is a
kingdom of truth in this world; and it
is our duty not only to belong to that
kingdom, but to say that we belong to
it. Saying that, is indeed in many cases
momentOus duty.-ReU. Washington

hard times. What was the matter with
