The Choice Of q Wife.

Rev. DIR. Collyer, in a recent evenings
discourse, said he had felt, in reading the
accounts of President Garfield's life, that
he would like TO draw some lessons from It,.
The name that has grown 80 noble and will
shine like star in the history of our repub-
lie has no great traditions about it brought
from the old world TO the new through
which we might make good the saying we
take for an axiom, that "blood will tell"
He traced the Garfield family from the first
known records down to the early manhood
of the late president, when he paused to see
whether he could find one of the keys TO
the secret of James A. Garfelds worth.
This finding the true woman for your wife,
the speaker then said, is to some of you, |
suppose, as you think, mere chance.
dare not say 30. dare not say 80, because
! believe that when young man is sweet
and wholesome, as Abram Garfield was,
and has agood square head on his shoulders,
and good warm heart in his breast, and
can stand for one clear factor in the worlds
life, and nourishes as pure reverence
toward all the women he meets as that he
feels toward his mother and sisters, being
not selfish in his seeking, the chances are
that this young man is not going to be
taken in. There is maid waiting for such
a young man, as | believe, who will meet
him on this fair and even ground, and love
him and trust her life to him, and make his
own life more beyond all telling than it
ever could have been without her, and bear
children TO him, if II shall please God, to be
to them both the glory and the JOY Of their
life. Such maid was waiting for this
quiet, manful young fellow, a daughter of
that fue old Huguenot house, the Ballans
yphn haVA fuaAa aunh a nAhla In,
ways since they came over here, and espe-
cially have done so much toward helping
US to sweeter and SUMMER faith in God
and in the life to come. This noble wo-
man, James A. Garfield's mother, was the
perfect match for her husband, as far as we
can trace them, in this also, that, beside the
wonderful beauty of her life, she was not of
the slow Saxon sort at all, but had the radi-
ant spirit in her of the bravest and bright
est blood Of France, and 80 brought fire to
the stubborn, slow-growing oak and set it
burning in clear plane. James A. Gar
field was his mothers boy. lie was not
content TO do what the Garfields had done
time out of mind and no more, he must
push on toward the front, he must live un-
der wider sky. II was not mere ambition
any more than il is in the young fellow
who grows to be six feet tall To attain
that stature II was the inner impulse caught
from his mothers nature and made strong
and sure by the splendid staying qualities
that were in his father. Mr.. Collyer then
pictured the home OF President Garfield and
his widowed mother, dwelling on their trials
aud poverty, and from that he passed TO the
various incidents In the presidents life,
drawing instruction from them here and
there. In concluding he said One other

History OF the Tomato.

good many years ago a man who had
recently arrived from the Bermuda islands
was sent to York county (Pa.) Jail for some
offense committed against the laws of the
commonwealth. He had with him few
seeds which he planted in the rich soil of
the Jail yard. Before the plants which
sprang from the seed reached maturity, he
was discharged, and no one knew the nature
of them. They grew luxuriantly, bearing
fruit OF large size and unusual appearance.
As this strange fruit ripened, its color
changed from green to brilliant red, and
became an object Of wonder and admira-
ton to all the inmates of the Jail. Mrs.
Klinefelter, the lady keeper, cautioned all
the prisoners against eating any of the fruit,
as she was sure it was poisonous, and besides
planted the seed, as she would endeavor TO
preserve specimens of it for him should he
return in time Just when the fruit was
fully matured the Bermuda prisoner revis-
tied the Jail and asked to see the plant.
This request granted he next called for pep
per, salt and vinegar, and to the horror Of
the good lady commenced to eat of the sup
posed poisonous fruit with relish that
astonished the beholders. After enjoying
the strange repast, he informed Mrs. X that
the fruit or vegetable was the tomato, or
love apple, and it would be found whole
some and nutritious. The seeds of the
remaining tomatoes were carefully preserved
and distributed among the friends and neigh
bors of the lady, and thus this new popular
esculent was introduced into the ancient and
goodly borough of York. For many years
thereafter it was cultivated as an ornament
rather than for table use, but by degrees its
merits began to be more fully understood
and appreciated, and there, as elsewhere, 1t
grew into general public favor.

Go TO Jesus.

We often worry, like the disciples, about
the best means OF feeding our souls, or of
bringing the gospel bread to needy souls
around us. We invent new methods, we
try all manner of devices; we get up all
" attractions in the sanctuary aud the Sab.
bath-school; we go to all sorts of " villages
to buy" 0, If we only sit down with Jesus
and accept what he bestows, with his rich
blessings on it o, il congregations would
sit and receive the gospel Of life from their
own Shepherd, and pray over it, and prac
tice It II teachers would only aim more to
keep their classes sitting quietly at the feet
OF Jesus, to take in his truth, and to think
about it The transcendent truth of the
new birth was revealed to Nicodemus when
he sat as an inquirer at the Saviour's feet.
The woman of Sychar found the we'll of sal
vation only waiting to be taught by the
Great Teacher. The most jealous worker
needs to have instruction, prayer, reflection,
and heartconverse with God, or else he will
become superficial and shallow. Like Mary,
he must sit down with Jesus, and gain deep
views of Jesus and of hlmself.-Rep. T. L.

A True Picture.

Now, you will find that liberal people are
happy people, and get more enjoyment of
what they have than folks OF churlish mind.
Misers never rest till they have been put
TO bed with shovel. They often get 80
wretched that they would hang themselves,
only they grudge the expense of a rope.
Generous souls are made happy by the hap.
piness Of others. The money they give to
the poor affords them more pleasure than
any other they lay out. have seen men of
means give coppers, and they have been cop
perry In every thing They carried on tin
pot business, lived like beggars, and died
like dogs. ] have seen others give to the
poor and to the cause of God by shovelfuls,
and they have had it back by barrow loads.
They made good use of their stewardship,
and the great Lord has trusted them with
more, while the bells In their hearts have
rung out merry peals when they have
thought of widows who blessed them, and
orphan children who smiled into their faces.

The Bible Confirmed.

Here Is book, portions of which reach
back to the dim twilight of historic times,
upon whose pages the discoveries of the on.
moving centuries, the revelations of mans
latest and highest wisdom, have been pour.
ing their intense beams, and To- like the
burning bush Of Horeb, 1t remains uncon-
sumed. Not a single essential feature Is
disproved or discredited; nay, rather, It's
heavenly origin aud authority are attested
by every new ray of light which mans in
creasing knowledge sheds upon It. The
archeologist has dug among the ancient
ruins Of Egypt, Assyria, and Babylon, only
TO find on temple, cylinder and lettered stone
corroborations Of this sacred book. The
physicist has searched through the arcana
Of nature and brought forth her secrets the
astronomer has scaled the heavens and
weighed in his balances the starry worlds !;
the ethnologist has explored the remotest
parts Of the earth and studied the races Of
mankind; the historian has traced the
streams Of human history back to their
sources; the philologist has investigated the
origin and development Of the babbliog
tongues Of earth an army Of honored and
learned men have wandered through every
realm of science, in all her vast domain Of
earth and sky, with microscope aud tele-
scope, and from every department OF human
learning, and every pursuit of her votaries,
each patient investigator has returned to
give new sanction TO the sacred Scriptures
and add new emphasis to the demonstrated
fact "The word of the Lord is tried
and its truth "abideth forever. Rev. DR..

Be Alive.

Death is out Of place in the service Of the
Lord Of life The living God does not
choose dead servants. Idleness, lazness,
stupor and death in churches and associa.
tions Of Christians are enough to astonish
devils aud make angels sad. The world calls
us with ten thousand calls of pain and want
and woe and sin, and the voice of him who
has all power in heaven and earth sends us
"into all the world" and bids us bear to
every creature the glad message Of his love
and grace. And with such urgent calls and
such high commands sounding in our ears,
shall we play, and trils, and sleep, and die
Such course is abhorrent to our nature
even in worldly things. In the language of
Arnot: ave like leaping river better
than stagnant pool. IL is far better to be
worn somewhat by work than corroded by
the rust Of idleness. If there are 'abomi.
nations in the earth Christian does not
exhaust his duty by signing and crying
over them. up, guards, and at them II
a very good motto for our warfare and in
one phrase of Scripture we shall find both
our strategy and our armament Speaking
The truth in love- This is not a good worlc
for resting in, but it is good world for
working in; and If we are fellow-workers
with God our labor will not be lost t"-The

LOMliness.


The world needs men more than anything
else. Rubies are not TO be mentioned by
the side Of men that are stable, men that are
thoroughly honest and reliable, men that are
right, men that are competent In their
sphere. Such men are more precious than
the gold of Ophir. There are lots of things
lying loose all through human society which
are called men, but which are poor stuff.
They are over-swollen. They falsely esti-
mate themselves. They are without any
moral judgment, or their moral Judgment
rests on a false basis. They do not Judge
themselves by the higher law of manhood,
or by the divine standard. They are not
content To stand at point where they are
really fitted to stand and execute the duties
Of life. So multitudes of men rise and are
smitten down again. Only here and there
do we see men beginning low, advancing
with moderation, maintaining what they
gain, rising to the very end, aud at last hav-
ing the verdict of man that they wsre more
than they thought themselves to be. Uni
versal just judgment and generosity tend to
put men higher who put themselves low, and
to put down the man who thinks himself to
be greater than he really is.
