FOR RESTORING GRAY HAIR TO ITS

IT is most agreeable dressing, which
is at once harmless and effectual, for pre-
serving the hair. 1t restores, with the
gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray,
light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep
black, as may be desired. By its use thin
hair is thickened, and badness often
though not always cured. 1t checks falling
of the hair Immediately, and causes new
growth in all cases where the glands are
not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
and strength, and renders it pliable.
The V1aoR cleanses the scalp, cures and
prevents the formation of dandruff and,
by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing
properties, it heals most if not all of the

Perseverance Indispensable TO n Chris.
tian.

A LITTLE thought will impress Us
with the Importance the Scriptures at
tach to perseverance,. Exhortations
against WEAKNESS and promises to en-
durance are frequent. In persever
ance we find the secret of nearly all
successful lives. The men who lead in
any profession or business have had an
end in view. and have allowed nothing
to swerve them from it, or to daunt
them in its pursuit.
Perseverance is q necessity to the
prosperity of individual religion.
There are those who profess to have
reached a high attainment in Christian
character by some mysterious, instan-
taneous spiritual process, but the Bible
presents no royal road to perfection of
character. A Christian is q new Great
ure, but he cannot divorce himself
from all influence of former habits
There are sins which have easily beset
him in the days of his unregeneracy,
and these will still make their appeals
to him. 1t is not easy to gain the vic
tory over temptation. To have every
thought brought into captivity to the
law of Christ is more than the work OF
a day. The most eminent saints we
read of in the Bible were men who
were disciplined by conflicts and fail
ures. and this extended over many
years of life. Aud our Lord presents
Christian life in these aspects. He tells
us of the blade, the ear and the full
corn in the ear as mathematical of the
Christian life. In apostolic writings it
is spoken of as q building, and every
thing concerning it suggests not an inn
mediate completion. but a constant
progress after Divine plan. We are
called to be 8 faithful unto DEATH" to

indispensable TO a Christian --Boptia

Get the Meaning!

THE Bible is, indeed, u deep book
when depth is required-that is to say,
for deep people. But it is not intended
particularly for profound persons; on
the contrary, much more for shallow
and simple persons. And, therefore,
the first and generally the main and
leading idea of the Bible is, on its sur
face, written in the plainest possible
Greek, Hebrew or English, needing no
penetration or application, needing
nothing but what we might give-atten-
ton.
But this, which is in every one 5 pow
er, and is the only thing that God wants,
is Just the last thing that any one will
give Him. We are delighted to ramble
away into day-dreams, to repeat pet
verses from other places, suggested by
chance words; to snap at an expression
which suits our particular views, or to
dig up a meaning from under a verse,
which we should be amiably grieved to
think any human being had been sc
happy as to find before. But q plain,
intended, immediate, fruitful meaning,
which every one ought to find always,
and especially that which depends on
our seeing the relation of the verse tc
those near it, and getting the force Of
the whole passage in due relation-thi:
sort of significance we do not look for
it being truly not to be discovered. un
less we really attend to what is said, in.
stead of to our own feelings ---RUskin'

Intellectual and Spiritual Growth.

In recent article in Good Company
on ''What Shall Our Daughters Study"
ID. G. Gilman says: r.-5
II is the fashion nowadays to
decry metaphysics and those who
join in the cry are not always
careful TO distinguish exactly what they
mean by this mysterious word. 1 do
not propose to defend or to oppose the
study of abstract speculative philos-
ophy.
The problems of space and time, the
nature of substance and form, the rela-
ton of subject and object, will always
interest a certain class of minds so that
speculation needs no advocacy and will
survive all assaults. But whatever may
be our view of metaphysics, there is a
knowledge of the laws of the spiritual
nature OF man which all should acquire.
We may call 1t by the old-fashioned
names of mental and moral philosophy
or by the new current terms OF psychol-
ogy and ethics-what is meant is the
law of intellectual and spiritual growth.
OF all the studies we may take up
these are the most enduring as Cicero
said in that often-quoted passage ex-
tolling philosophy.
Introspection has generally been re-
garded as the key to such studies. This
may be morbid, excessive, stupid and
untimely, or ii may be healthy, moder-
ate. intelligent and appropriate. 1t may
lead, it does lead, to self abasement and
depression of spirits; it may lead, it
should lead, to the eradication of that
which is faulty, TO sympathy with all
that is pure and lovely, to aspiration
after that which is heavenly and eternal.
Such introspection should not come too
early in life. 1t should rarely begin
without guide, and the teacher should
be hopeful, discriminating and inspir-
ing, and full of experience. 1t is like
the study of medicine. A celebrated
lecturer in New York said not long ago
to his class whom he had addressed on
diseases of the heart: Now, young
gentlemen, don't all call at my office
tomorrow to say you have these symp-
toms" The teacher of psychology,
and especially of religious psychology.
needs to be on his guard like
wise, lest morbid habit of self
examination be inculcated, fatal alike to
health and religion. Indeed, / some
times think that introspection should
never be encouraged in the young
that the less they think of their diges-
ton and respiration the healthier they
are. But the objective study of char
acter, the close scrutiny of the lives and
conduct of those who have gone before,
is most helpful. The memories of a
quiet life are quite as instructive as
those of a statesman or warrior; the
pages of all great poets are full of les
sons; the philosophers and ethical
writers may all be studied to advan-
tage. Best of all writings are the words
of Him who spake as never man spake.
do not know any better sign of prog
ress than this, that while men care less
and less for theological formulas, meta
physical distinctions and ecclesiastical
tests, there has never been time when
the life and words of Christ have been
so closely studied, or when His pre-
cepts have been more widely accepted.
