Most young married couples have q

when they have twins. Then they have
two first babies. The first baby is al.
ways a remarkable child. Such phys
ical beauty, such intellectual quickness
and genius, and such moral perfection
were never before united in one being.
Other babies may be all very well in
their way, but this first baby is some
thing peculiarly marvellous. All its
are moved to say: Observation-Disclosures
with foretinger, by way of ingratiating
themselves with the infant
OF course the fond parents think that
the infant must be photographed. The
world at distance should not be denied
the opportunity of gazing upon its Inca
ments; a record should be kept of its
loneliness, So some fine sunshiny day
they 60 to a photographer. Then the
first baby Immediately begins to quarrel
and fret and look less beautiful than
usual. although he is all dressed up in
his best clothes. He wants things that
he sees in the photographer show
case, and not obtaining them begins
loudly to protest. He refuses to yield
to pacificatory Establishments. and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS fails to soothe.
At last his turn comes. The mother
wants him in a certain position. The
photographer doesn't approve of that
position, and the baby won't have it.
Finally a compromise is effected. The
photographer tingles bell, c.ucks like
hen and raps with a stick all at once,
hoping thereby to attract the attention
of the first baby; but when the picture
comes out there are found three or four
impressions OVERLAPPING each other like
the scales of fish. A second sitting is
taken, and the photographer sleeps his
soul in perjury by telling the infant that

the baby sets up prolonged howl.
Thus are the rosy hours beguiled.
AT last a good picture is obtained and
numerous copies are ordered. They are
sent TO the remotest friends and rela-
tives. This would cause great excite
ment in distant lands if it were not for
one thing. 1t is that everywhere the
likeness goes it finds some other young
couple with first baby, who are equally
of opinion that their baby is the finest in
the world. Indeed. disparaging con-
trasts are almost surely drawn between
this photograph and the other first baby,
to the disadvantage of the photograph.
Yet young couples will doubtless 90 on

reverence to his God. 1t was his custom
from early childhood to use many
words, strange and altogether unfamiliar
to the boyish ear, very quaint and
striking; it seemed that they must have
been OF his own coinage; but in after
times when engaged in my studies 1
found that all these words of nv father
which l remembered were stored away
in the old Saxon as living plants which
he himself had created, and therefore
were impressed upon me. 1t was a
pleasant, goodly sight to see my father
in my native village and his venerable
minister and companion studying God s
Word, not as with a trumpet and tink-
ling brass, but with earnest power, con-
tinuous study, striving to find in God s
Word what was the meaning and spirit
of those things which nour;shed' the
souls and lives of the people.
1T was a goodly and pleasant sight
to see my father and his minister walk
ing hand-in-hand on the highway of the
saints. That minister first taught me
Latin, and l am not sure but it had the
greatest hold on me thereby, giving me
this taste for letters which has often
seemed to me very Improbable sort of
taste. l remember coming over to

death. Suddenly, in the night, with

him the light and the glory of God in

Linnid Manure.

IL is matter OF great surprise that
many farmers allow the liquid contents
of their barn-yards to be washed away
into creeks and rivers, instead of saving
aud utilizing IL in fertIlizing their land.
Nor will il ever be otherwise until
proper means are taken to prevent it
There certainly would be no great
trouble i'm doing so. All that is neces.
sary is to dig n round pit or cistern of
sufficient size just outside the barn-yard,
and walling IL up with stone. firmly i'm

matter to distribute the liquid as fast as

Faith In a Future Life.

A distinguished scientist SAYS: Phi

men a principle that cannot perish, -
and declares that be ief of this sis

secret trust of the heart and the uni
versal consent IF the world" But.
neither Phi osophy nor Natural Religion
can ever make future lie certain, and
lime probability" in its favor, or we
shall have at best but a wavering hope
of its truth. Whether this doctrine is
tauc hit in the Old Testament has long
been question in dispute among
Biblical critics. But, however COM
mentators may choose to construe the
testimonies of patriarchs and prophets
on this point. it must be clear to all,
that Christ plainly assumes them to
have taught the doctrine of mans i'm
morta ity. He recognizes it as implied
in and underlying all revelation.
Hence he refuted Sadducean skepti-
cism by an appeal to the writings of
Moses. where, if anywhere, we should
say there was an appearance of almost
perfect reticence on the subject
Without insisting on the disputed
text. so often quoted from Job, as an
Indication of faith in his own resurrec-
ton. and. conceding that the belief in a
future existence is not as often referred
to in the Old Testament as in the New
Testament we still think that the refer

conclusive. Agreeable to this construc-
ton are the words of Isaiah (26: 19. }:
''Thy dead men shall live, together with
my dead body shall they arise. Awake
and sing, We that dwell in the dust, for
the earth shall cast out the dead" Nor
can we doubt that Ezekiers parable OF
national resurrection is to be taken
as evidence that the doctrine was not
unknown to him. Daniel also expresses
his faith in clear and unambiguous
terms when he says: MANY that SLEEP

Our Help.

What we need is help-help power
full, efficient, constant: we need a very
present help in trouble. What mercy
that we have it in our God. Our hope
is in Jehovah, for our help comes from
Him. Help is on the road, and will not
fail to reachus in due time. for He who
sends it TO us was never known to be
too late. Jehovah who created all
things is equal to every emergency;
heaven and earth are at the disposal OF
Him who made them, therefore let us
be very joyful in our Infinite helper.
He will sooner destroy heaven and
earth than ermit His people to be de.
stroyed. and the perpetual hills them.
selves shall bow rather than He shall
fail whose ways are everlasting. We
are bound to look beyond heaven and
earth to Him who made them both: il
is vain to trust the ere atures: it is wise
to trust the Creator.
