A Sermon for All Mankind. d.
Anonymous.
Christian Intelligencer.

Christian Intelligencer.
l have found in myself strong ten
dency to personal dislike to strangers.
1t is not difficult to recall the faces of
men whom [ have met on common
ground and to whom, without provo
cation, have felt stirred in angry re-
sistance. There was Il man who used
to frequent one of my daily resorts. l
rarely heard him speak, but to my con-
fidential companions l habitually spoke
of him as the assassin. If every man
wore a murderous countenance he did.
His brow was dark and lowering; his
ewes were baleful; his figure was squat
and his motions were feline. He car
ried habitual frown and his whole
bearing was singularly repulsive to me.
I must have felt thus toward him six
months, until one raw winter morning
1 saw him carrying heaviy-laden
basket along squalid street. He has
lost none of his baleful influence over
me and without knowing or asking
myself why, l followed him to his des-
tination: 1t was a house in which liv-
ed a widow whom I knew and whose
children had been sometimes for days
with insufficient food and often the
house was fireless. The basket that
my assassin carried contained a gener-
Gus donation. of necessaries and from
that time until the spring buds gave
promise Of betterment of the widows
state, he kept her well supplied with
food and fuel whenever her own re
sources fell short. My God! 1 did
not know it then, but that which had
mistaken for frown was the involun,
tary expression of pain from a disease
that never left him until he died. He
was railroad conductor who had beer
discharged because he could not resis
an appeal from the poor for free trans
portation. l wish that l had never
called him the assassin, for no more
cruel injustice could have been done
a fellOw-creature who strove with all hi
might against his own painful rifle
tions to save and soothe the hurts o
other suffering ones.

Old Felix's Pay Attention.

This atomosphere Of the household
which either converts to Christ OF
peryerts to fashion, folly and impiety
is commonly created by the parents.
They are responsible for it. If the
whole trend of household talk and
thought and ambition runs toward
money-making, or social cOnvivialties,
or general godliiiess of any kind, it is
| the father and mother who gives the
pitch. Nowhere is It so difficult to
make the best preaching or the best
Sunday school teaching effective on
character as in the malariohs air of
such home. AS soon expect to rear
oranges in Lapland or grow sugar cane
III Labrador as to rear plants of grace
in so goddess an atomosphere. The pa
rental influence penetrates through the
house with as subtle poison as escap-
ing gas from an i'll built furnace. As
Doctor Bushnell has pithily said, in
his incompatible book on Christian
Nature :" Whatever fire the parents
kindle, the children are found gather
ing the wood. They help as either ap-
prentices or accessories" Ii the father
begins the Sabbath with some secular
Sunday newspaper, the family will
help him to read it. If the parents go
irregularly to Gods house, the children
will hardly care to go at all. If the
mother is a scandal monger, she will
make her children tattlers and caves
droppers. If she directs her Servants
to say at the door that she is mot at
home, the children will learn to be po-
lite liars. If the father puts a decan-
ter ON the table, the boys will soon be-
gin to practice with the fatal glass.
That rich father, who disinherited a
son for drunkenness, and in the Will be-
queathed his wine cellar to certain
heir, gave a very papable proof of the
home atOmosphere which had poisoned
the poor boy. Parental prOvocations
and i'll temper sour the very air of
many households, so that the children
can hardly escape being cross, snap
pish and irritable. How can piety
breathe in such an air How can a
family be trained up in he knowledge
of Gods word, when the Book of books
is seldom opened, and the spirit of its
instructions is no more known than in
the house of a Mussulman Even in
families of many.professors of religion,
[ do not look for any conversions, for |
know the influence of the most faith |
ful discoUrses will be destroyed by the |
of the home. It was the at
of Elk9nnah's and Hannah's |
godly house that produced a Samuel. |
It was the wrethed air of Ellis house |
which ruined Hophni and Phineas."

How do They de Itl

Not long ago, we had the good for
tune(Or should we call it ill-fOrtune,
to be present at an interview between
two young girls, one of whom was the
type of a very large class of what are
known as "society girls. Her style Of
conversation was so extraordinary
contrived to use so many words with ut
putting any ideas into them-she was
so volubly empty and so cOmplacently
absurd, that we Will try to sketch her
Let us explain first that the italicized
words and the many inteUections and
exclamation points are intended to
represent her gestures and her empha-
sis. So now we will introduce you to
Miss Lille.
''Niss Lille, smiling. And 80 you
went to the wedding! how perfectly Tore
ly everything was!!! and what a s1Ueet
bride Eva made!!! everything was Just
charplingl!! didn't you think 50? l
never enjoyed myself so m1rcb in all my
IJe!! [ had a perfectly splendid time
and the music was Just eBcbdnting!i l
couldn't bear to come away!! l felt Just
like dancing all night!l and there were
so many of my friends there and you
kno1o what a difference that ,aakes!!
1t was altogether the most delightful eve
ming 1 eper spe11t!!!" etc. ETC.,
In answer to some questions about
a member of the family, our voluble
friend replied: ooh, you reoEymusn't
ask MEL! l couldn't tell, you know, for
l ocas 50 taken up with the dancing and
then that glorious music!!! Oh! il
was too deliciOttsI!! and so on, and so on
for an hour.
s'Now the question arises how dc
they do it? for, indeed, this is neither
an exaggerated picture, nor a solitary
and exceptional case. Girls of thi,
kind $50 like, that we might be accused
of painting from the life) abound in
society. They are not fools-far from il
and under different conditions might
have been fairly clever, but the con
ditions were evidently wanting. Lis
tening to them is dishearteniug, be
cause one realizes the imPOssibility oi
raising a solid superstructure on such
fimsy foundation
Do they ever think? DO they have
any aspirations? Do they cherish any
aims or purposes? Could you reacl
their hearts, or touch and arouse then
sympathies2 Are they capable o
friendship or of love, in the highest anC
purest sense of those words? And th'
questions are not easily answered.

A Terrible Fact.

There are constantly crowding into
our insane asylums persons fifty to
eighty years of age, who IN cary life
were addicted to the use of alhoholic
liquors, but who have reformed, and
for ten, twenty, or thirty years, have.
never touched a drop. The injury
which the liquor did to their bodies
seemed to have all disappeared, being
triumphed over by the full vigor Of
their manhood, but when their natual
force began TO decrease, then the con-
cealed mischief showed itself in insanity
clearly demonstrating that the injury to
their bodies was of Il permanent char
acter.

MY MOTHER.

God bless my dear old mother
Whate'er my fortune be.
I'll never find another
Who'll be so true TO me.
Her hair, which once was raven,
Is lined with silver now,
And crafty Time has craven
Deep wrinkles on her brow.
Yet, though her brow bear traces
OF trouble and of care,
To me my mothers face is
The fairest of the fair,
So tender and forgiving,
As gentle asa dove
All! life werenot worth living
Without my mothers love.
How often, when complaining
Of life's perplexing care,
When naught there seemed remaining
Save countless ills to bear,
My mothers gentle chiding
Has turned my thoughts above,
And reused faith abiding
In Gods redeeming love-
God bless my dear old mother!
Bright be each later year!
I'll never find another,
Whom may hold so dear,
Oh how my life would alter,
If mother were not near,
And how my heart would falter
Without her words of cheer.

HUW TO GO COURTING.
Leap Year Hints for the Girls.

Girls know only one quarter as much
about courting as boys, because they
have only one year in four in which
they are allowed to practice.
As a matter of course, leap year
finds them poorly prepared to ''to step

THE VISION.
By BISHOP WILBERFORCE.

1 sat within my glad home,
And round about me played
-Four children in their uirriment,
And happy noises made;
Beside me sat their mother
In her loveliness and light,
I ne'er saw any like her,
Save in some vision bright.
1t was in life's young morning
That our hearts together grew,
Beneath its sparkling sunlight.
And in its sleeping dew;
And the sorrows and joys
OF twelve years changefuI life
Had drawn more closely to me
My own, my blessed wife.
Then at our door c. knocked,
And we rose to let Him in,
For the night was wild and stormy,
And to turn Him thence were sin;
With peace be to this household"
His shelterers He blest,
And sat Him down among us
Like some expected guest.
The children's noise was hushed,
The mother softly spoke,
And my inmost spirit thrilled with
The thoughts which in me woke;
For it seemed like other days
Within my memory stored.
Like Mamre's tented plain,
Or Emmaus' evening board.
His form was veiled from US,
His mantle was not raised,
But we felt that eyes of tenderness
And love upon US gazed
His lips we saw not moving,
But a deep and inward tone
Spake like thunder's distant voices
Unto each of US alone:
Full often We have called Ne,
And bid me to your home,
And l have listened to your words,
And at your prayers am come
And now my voice is strange to you,
And Wherefore art Thou here?'
Your throbbing hearts are asking,
With struggling hope and fear.
at was My love which shielded
Your helpless infant days.
It was My care which guided YOU
Through all life's dangerous ways.
I joined your hearts together.
1 blessed your marriage VOW;
Then trust and be not fearful, though
My ways seem bitter nOw."
We spake no word of answer,
Nor said He any more.
But as one about to leave US,
Hepassed to the door,
Then ere He crossed the threshold,
He beckoned with His hand
That she who sat beside me should
Come at His command.
Then rose that wife and mother
And went into the night,
She followed AZ His bidding,
And was hidden from our sight;
And though my heart was breaking,
Istrovc my will to bow,
For I saw His hands were pierced,
And thorns had torn His brow.
