MY MOTHERS GOD.

At fashionable party a young
physician present spoke of one of his
patients whose case he considered a
very critical one. He said he was
every sorry to lose him, for he was
a noble young man, but very unnec-
essarily concerned about his soul,
and the Christians increased his agi-
tation by talking with him and pray
ing with him. He wished Christians
would let his patients alone. Death
was but an endless sleep, the religion
of Christ a delusion, and its followers
were not persons of the highest cul-
ture and intelligence" A young
lady sitting near, and one OF the gay
est of the company, said, ''Pardon
me, doctor, but / cannot hear you
talk thus and remain silent. | am
not a professor of religion; | never
knew anything about it experiment
ally, but my mother was a Christian.
Times without number she has taken
me to her room, and with her hand
upon my head she has prayed that
God would give her grace to train me
for the skies. Two years ago my
precious mother died, and the relig-
ion she so loved during life sustained
her in her dying hour. She called
us to the bedside, and with her face
shining with glory asked us to meet
her in heaven, and / promised to dc
so. And now," said the young lady
displaying deep emotion, "can L be-
lieye that this is all a delusion? that
my mother sleeps an eternal sleep
that she will never waken again in
the morning of the resurrection, and
that l shall see her no more? No,
cannot, / will not believe it, Hell
brother tried to quiet her, for by this
time she had the attention of all
present. "No," said she, ''brother
let me alone; / must defend my
mothers God, my mothers religion. .
The physician made no reply, AND
soon left the room. He was found
shortly afterwards pacing the floor OF
an adjoining room in great agitation
and distress of spirits. ''What is
the matter?' a friend inquired. so,
said he, that young lady is right
Her words have pierced my soul.
And the result of the conviction thus
awakened was that both the young
lady and the physician were convert
ed to Christ, and are useful and in
fiuential members of the church Of
God. Young friends, stand up TO
Jesus at all times and in all place:
wherever you hear lis name reviled
or his counsel set at naught. Rattle
let the language of your heart be
"God forbid that / should glory

SLEEP lin JESUS.

Is not that one thought, that our
beloved ones sleep in Christ Jesus,
enough? They sleep IN Jesus, and,
therefore, in infinite tenderness, SYM
pathy, care, and love. They sleep
in Jesus; and he is Life, and there
fore, they sleep in Life. They sleep
in Jesus, and he is Light, and there
fore, they sleep in Light. They sleep
in Jesus, and he is Love, and there
fore, they sleep IN Love. And what
better? This better-that they who
sleep in Jesus must surely awaken.
For, as it is written, his is quicken
ing, awakening, life-giving Spirit,
and so to sleep in him is to sleep in
the very fount and core of life and
power. If from Jesus all our powers
and talents come here on earth, sure
he will give us more and nobler when
we sleep in him, and wake in him to
a risen and eternal life. And more :
it is written that them that sleep in
Jesus will he bring with him. At the
last day we shall see face to face
those we loved-and before that-O
doubt it not. Oftentimes when Christ
draws near our spirits he comes not
alone, but loving souls, souls whom
we knew in the flesh on earth, bear
up his train, and hover near oul
hearts, and join their whispers to the
voice and inspiration of him who
loved us, and who will guide us with
counsel here, and after that receive
us into glory, where we shall meet
those beloved ones-not as our fore
fathers dreamed, as meagre shadows
fitting through dreary and formless
chaos, but as we knew them once
the body of the flesh alone put off
but the real body, the spiritual body
TO which flesh and blood was but {
husk and shell, living and loving
more fully, more utterly, than ever
before; because it is in Christ, who
is the fount of life, and freed in hin
forever from hell and death. And i
you wish for sign that this is so
come to holy communion. and take
the bread and wine as a sign tha
your bodies and theirs, are fed from
the same fount of everlasting life

SHALL WE PRUNE IN AU-
TUMN?

To the above question, which
comes from several subscribers, we
say, decidedly, yes, provided the
question applies to newly planted
trees, those set last spring or within
few years. The sooner such trees
have their final shape given to them,
the better. This should have been
done when they were planted, but
between the hurry of springs work
and the timidity of the inexperienced,
who are afraid to cut, trees are quite
too often set out just as they come
from the nursery. Such trees must
sooner or later be put into their final
shape for bearing, and the sooner
this is done, the better. Some books
on fruit culture, the French especial
ly, give diagrams to show how the
tree should be shaped. These are
well enough as suggestions but as
no two trees grow precisely alike,
the only guides in such matters are,
q general idea of the laws which reg
ulate tree growth, and common sense
in their application. Working to
pattern cannot be followed. If one
has young orchard, the first point
to be considered is the height at
which he will make the heads of his
trees. In localities where the sum-
mer is long aud hot, it is claimed
that low heads shade the trunk, and
thus are a benefit. Others wish to
have the heads high enough to allow
of the passage of teams beneath
them, if need be. While there is no
objection to cultivating crops in a
young orchard, and indeed it is bet
ter to do this than to neglect the soil
entirely, the practice is becoming
more general OF seeding the bearing
orchard to clover, and using it as a
pasture for swine, to the mutual ben
eft of pigs and trees. The height of
the heads being decided upon, all
branches that start below this should
be removed. The seasons growth
branches at this time will cause nc
check, and as the branches to be cut
away are all small, no large wounds
will be exposed. Hence we say, by
all means do such pruning in autumn
while the weather is mild, and Other
farm work is not pressing .-Ameri

THE SHAM AND THE REAL

Every good thing has it's host of imita-
tors; every genuine article its counter
feits. Bad manners and wicked habits
have theirs also; but he who shams the
bad never boasts of it, while they who
ape the virtues of the good or stimulate
the genuine never hesitate to place the
counterfeit before the public in their
most alluring tones. When these people
initiate they always choose a pronounced
type or popular subject to copy from and
when they claim to be as good as $50
and-So,s or to sell an article equal TO 49,
and So" the public may depend upon it
that Mr.. 9sSo-and-So" and his articles are
always the best of the kind Thus the
sham is always proving the genuine mer-
it of the thing it-copies.

duce and populariZe an article of house

The only man who is master of
the world is he who loves Jesus su-
premely, with love which rules the
heart and the life. Such a man uses
every earthly thing in subordinate to
his ruling spiritual affection. But of
him who gives the world, in any of
it's aspects or relations, such meas
ure of his love as sets aside any
claim of heaven, the Scripture saith,
eff any love the world, the love of
the Father is not in him." And he

The CONSULTATIONS OF GoD.-Have
you ever seen, or, perhaps, made one
of party, who are going to explore
dark, deep cavern-the Mammoth
Cave of Kentucky, or the Catacombs
. of Rome? They all stand out III the
sunlight, and the attendants, who
know the journey they are going to
make, pass round among them and
put into the hands of each lighted
candle. How useless it seems-how
pale and colorless the little fame ap-
pears in the gorgeous flood of sun
light: But the procession moves
along; one after another enters the
dark cavern's mouth; one after an
other loses the splendor of daylight
in the hands of one after another the
feeble candle-light comes out bright
IN the darkness; and by-and-by they
are all walking in the dark, holding
"a fast their candles as if they were
their very life-totally dependent
upon what seemed SO useless half an
hour ago. That seems to me to be q
picture of the way 10 which Gods
promises of consolation, which We
attach SO little meaning to at first
come out into beauty and value az
we pass on into our lives Philip.
