" Hallowed Be Thy Name. "

Mamma" said Harry, a few evenings
after the talk about "Our Father, do
you remember, when l was so little that
l did not know how to say, hallowed be
thy name?"
Mother smiled, and said she did. 1t
was not so very long ago, though Har-
ry thought it was.
l don't know yet Just ecactly what
1T Means he said, slowly. Does it
mean that we must not swear, or let
other people do so if we can help it?
Yo1 know the commandment says, Thou
shalt not take the name of the Lord thy
God In vain Mamma, to-day when I
was making that snowman in the yard,
some boys II the street began to swear
aaQtulLy. asked them to please to stop,
but they only threw balls at me, SO
| ran in"
1t means not swearing, and many
other things besides, replied his mother,
drawing him more closely to her "Lov
ing esd, and praising Him, and trying
to get other people to do so, are ways Of
hallowing His name. 1t is speaking and
acting always, so that those you meet
will know what good and wise and
loving Father He is. Do you recollect
when Cousin Susie made her visit here
how much she used to talk about her
mother?"
80 yes" said Harry, "She was always
telling how much she loved her, and how
good she was, and what pre- tty things she
could make. She would never do a
thing unless she was sure her mamma
would like it. Do you mean that we
must talk in that way about our Father
in heaven?"
Yes, my darling" replied his mother.
That is the best kind of preaching, and
kind you can do now. But it is bed
time, and we must sing our goodnight
hymn. What shall it be?"
Let's sing Precious Name, o How
Sweet, said Harry And in few
minutes Aunt Ellen, who was sitting
alone in the parlor, thinking of her little
baby who Jesus had taken few weeks
before, smiled as she listened and thought
OF Him who is the Hope of earth and
the Joy of heaven" where baby was.
And so Harry preached to her, even be-
fore his little head was laid to rest upon
his pillow that night.-ChriStian Intel
hgencer.

Stop Before You Begin.

Success depends as much on not doing
as upon doing; in other words, Stop
before you begin" has saved many boy
from ruin.
When quite young lad I came very
near losing my own life and that of my
mother by the horse 1 was driving
running violently down a steep hill and
over dilapidated bridge at its foot.
As the boards of the old bridge flew
up behind us, it seemed almost miracu-
lous that we were not precipitated into
the stream beneath and drowned. Ar
irving home and relating our narrow
escape to my father, he sternly said to
Inc:
Another time hold in your horse
before he starts
How many young men would have
been saved if early in life they had said
when invited to take the Grst step in
wrong doing:
"No, | thank you"
If John, at that time clerk in the
store, had only said to one of the older
clerks, when invited to spend an evening
in drinking saloon, No. 1 thank you"
he would not to-day be the inmate of an
inebriate asylum.
If James, clerk in another store,
when invited to spend his next Sabbath
on steamboat excursion, had said,
mo, l thank you" he would to-day
have been perhaps an honored officer
in the church instead of occupying a
cell in the State Prison.
Had William, when at school, said
when his comrade suggested to him that
he write his own excuse for absence from
school and sign his fathers name, No, 1
thank you" 1 will not add lying to
wrongdoing; he would not to-day be
serving out term of years in prison for
having committed forgery.
In my long and large experience as an
educator of boys and young men, 1 have
noticed this, that resisting the devil in
whatever form he may suggest wrong
doing to us is one sure means of success
in life. Tampering with evil is always
dangerous.
Avoid the beginnings of evil" is an
excellent motto for every boy starting
out in life.
Oh, how many young men have en-
deavored, when halfway down the hill
of wrong-doing, to stop, but have not
been able Their own passions, appe-
tites, lusts, and bad habits have driven
them rapidly down the hill to swift and
irremediable ruin.
My young friend stop before you begin
to go down hill learn now to say to all
invitations to wrong doing, from what
ever source they may come, " No, thank
you, and, in your old age, glory crowned
you will thank me fer this advice.

Ghilarem's Column.
Seven Times.

"Seven times one are seven-seven
times one are seven seven times two are
fourteen" sang little Mary, as she sat on
the doorstep studying her lesson. Just
then she felt something crawling on her
neck, and jumped up, thinking it was a
spider, and she was SO afraid Of spiders.
But it was only her brother Robbie, who
stood laughing as hard as he could, with
a long straw in his hand.
Now, Robbie" said Mary, "if you
do that again, I'll slap you"
Robbie ran away, and Mary sat down
and began again "Seven times two are
fourteen; seven times three are. twenty
one" and then she screamed She was
sure it was spider this time, but it was
Robbie again and Mary rushed up to
him and with her face flushed with
anger, slapped him so hard that he
screamed with pain.
Mamma came to see what the matter
was, and took Robbie up stairs with her.
By and by she came back and asked
Mary what she was doing.
Studying my seven times" Mary
replied.
"Seven times ?" said mamma. "That
reminds me Of story in the life of
Jesus One of his disciples came to him
and said, My brother has sinned against
me; how often shall 1 forgive him, Lord !?
seven times?' But Jesus, his whole face
lighted up with sweet smile, answered,
Not seven times only, but seventy times
seven"
Mary stopped moment, then hid her
face III her mothers lap and sobbed ::
" / know you mean me and the way |
treated Robbie little while ago but o,
it's SO hard to be good, and he did tease
me SOL
".Let us ask Jesus to help you, dear
daughter, and keep asking him till all
this quick temper goes away.
Mary learned new lesson that day,
and she has often thought of it since
when she has said, Seven time one,
or Seven times two" or Seven times
seven"
Mamma talked to Robbie, too about
teasing his sister and trying to make her
angry, until the poor little fellow, who
was rather thoughtless than bad, came
and asked her to forgive him. Mary
kissed him and made it all up, and went
to bed that night happy little girl.

The Obedient Boy.

I read very pretty story the other
day about little boy who was sailing a
boat with playmate good deal larger
than he was The boat had saileda good
way out into the pond and the big boy
said, go in Jim, and get her. It ism t
over your ankles, and I've been in after
her every time"
81 darent," said Jim. "I'll carry
her all the way home for you, but, l
cant go in there; she told me not to-" =
"Who is she?'
MY mother" said jim, softly.
Your mother? Why l thought she
was dead" said the big boy.
"That was before she died. Eddie and
l used to come here and sail boats, and
she never let us come unless we had
strings enough to haul in with am
not afraid-you know I'm not-only she
didn twant me to, and I can't do it.
Was not that beautiful spirit that
made little Jim obedient to his mother
even after she was dead?-S s. Id

The Baby's Sermon.

The children had been up in their
mammals room, after breakfast, that
Sunday morning, learning their text
and when they had it perfectly, and
were coming down stairs again for a
run in the garden, while nurse was busy,
Mamie and Frank fell to disputing.
And what do you think about? Why,
who should carry the great rubber ball
down stairs.
Mamie wanted it, because she had
thought of it first, and Frank wanted it.,
because he was the oldest.
You're mean, selfish boy" said
Mamie.
You're pig" said Frank
I'LL just tell papa what horrid boy
you are" said Mamie.
"And I'll tell mamma I wish she d sell
you to somebody l don't want such a
sister, answered Frank.
So these naughty children went on
from bad to worse, saying all sorts of I'M
kind and unpleasant things to one an
other-so very unkind that they were
ashamed enough whenever they remem-
bered them afterward
All this time Baby Ben was coming
down stairs behind them Slowly, one
foot at time, holding fast to the balus-
ters with both fat, small hands, the little
man made his way; and wider and wider
opened his big blue eyes, more and more
surprised he looked, as he heard the angry
words.
The children stopped to finish their
quarrel at the foot Of the stairs. Frank
was trying very hard to get the ball
away from Annie, and she had got as far
as pulling his hair, the naughty girl,
when the baby stopped on the lowest
stair, and preached his sermon to them.
Ickle chillen,' said he, love one
anodder."
That was every word he said. 1t was
the text the children had been learning
in their mothers room such short time
before. Mamie dropped her hands, her
face flushed, and turned half away from
Baby Ben, and nobody said anything for
a moment
HereS Frank" said Mamie at last,
holding out the ball, you may have it.
I'm going to be good.
$50 am said Frank. You shall
have the first toss, Mamie. I'm-Im
very sorry was so cross.
So the two went off to the garden hand
in hand, ashamed enough of having been
50 naughty, while the baby curled him
self up in papa's big chair in the study,
and there nurse found him, after long
hunt, fast asleep, with his thumb in his
mouth

The Plums-A Story from the
German.
CHIsToPH Won SCHM1D.

One day the Frau Won Halden took
her four children to visit their grand
father, in his beautiful garden.
The grandfather was glad to see them,
and broke from plum tree leaf branch
upon which were four plums; they were
as yellow as gold, and as large as eggs.
He regretted there were no more ripe :;
" But" he said playfully, "y u can see
for yourselves, in the meanwhile, how
four plums can be divided among FIVE
persons and have them come out even"
"Oh," said the eldest daughter, Lot
tie, " can Go that; only, I pray you,
permit me, in making the number equal,
to mix them together little"
She took the plums and said:
1--WE Two sisters and one plum make
together three; my two brothers and
one plum make also three, and these
two remaining plums and one mother
make together another three; so each
part is three with none left over.
Lottie's brothers and sister were very
we'll contented with this division, and
the mother much pleased with Lottie,
but insisted that each child should have
one plum, she wishing none for herself.
The grandfather gave Lottie beau
tiful bouquet, and said to her, Your
wit and fun has given us much enter
tainment, but your goodness of heart
has delighted us more.
Wit and wisdom give mnch pleasure
But noble hearts still larger measure"

How to Pray.

A little boy in Jamaica called on the
missionary, and stated that he had lately
been very i'll, and often wished the min
lister had been present to pray with him.
But, Thomas, said the missionary,
i hope you prayed yourself
oh, yes, sir
(. We'll, but how did you pray?"
Why, sir, l begged
A child Of six years, in Sunday
school, said, "Wben we kheel down in
the school-room to pray it seems as if
my heart talked to God"
a little girl about four years of age
being asked, Why do you pray to God?"
replied, Because know he hears me,
and ! love to pray to him"
But how do you know. he hears

There Shall be no Night There
Rev. xxi: 25.

BY REV. OLIVER CRANE, D. D.
o. beautiful home is the city of light,
Where each stone is sparkling gem
For the glory of God and the Lamb in it bright
Shall eternally shine-there shall be no. night
In the New Jerusalem.
Ere the dawning of time, in the ages of old,
Its foundations eternal were laid;
Its endurable walls of ethereal mold,
And its pavements abiding of FURNISHED gold,
By its Builder and Maker were made
Not shadow OF gloom in its streets shall be
known
Nor cloud in its armament seen
By radiance streaming direct from the throne,
Luminosity gathers from every stone,
Till the city is bathed in the sheen
Not an echo of sorrow or signing, or pain
In its mansions of bliss shall arise;
For the Lamb that was slain, and who liveth
again,
In the midst of his chosen in person shall reign,
And shall wipe all tears from their eyes.
Antiquities deemed so inscrutable here,
Shall be there disencumbered of doubt;
He who sits on the throne shall each mystery
clear,
And obscurites make as in MONDAY appear,
And invest them with lustre throughout.
There the scenes that have tempted us here to
repine,
Shall be mantled with halos of light;
For opacties here, by process divine,
AS transparencies there shall resplendenty shine,
Like the stars in the bosom of night.
There each dweller admitted, appareled in white,
Shall garland of amaranth wear,
And in rapturous anthems unceasing unite
Unappalled by foe, and unthrilled by fright,
For no night shall overshadow them there.
Then awake my soul, that delectable cline,
With its glories for thee, is in store;
For the dayspring gilds the horizon of time,
And shall presently usher that day sublime
When the night shall be dreaded no more.
