WHAT To DRINK-The habit of drink
ing strong tea, or black coffee. directly
after dinner, is especially bad, ,and certain
ly interferes with digestion. At breakfast
time healthy man has all his sleep in
him. and surely it is then unscientifc for
him to infct upon his system strong tea
or coffee. AT "iea.tme'' tea or coffee may
well be INDUCED in moderately; the bulk
of the days work is done; the body not
only wants rnsing out, but fatigue is felt
which may well be counteracted by the
use of mild stimulant, such rs tea; and
bedtime is not yet so near that sleep is
thereby interfered with. Most nations
skin; and am inclined to think that the
carbonaceous matter of the roasted coffee.
when so largely and frequently taken, may
perhaps have something to do with this.
For hard working people, who are not
corpulent, shunld suggest the thick-aak-
ed cocoa as the healthiest and most nutri-
Gus breakfast beverage. For those who
do not want fattening drinks, and who
often cannot digest cocoa, I should say
drink hot water at breakfast. Those who
dine late, and make their dinner their
main meal, need a diluent drink, sn hour
or two afterward, and if they drink tea it
keeps them awake or makes them irritable
and nervous. find for myself that din
ing solidly, as l am obliged to do when
have my work, 0.30 P. N.Y. and often
needed to work from nine to eleven, II
tumbler of hot water brought into my
study or laboratory is the best and whole
soonest drink. and after few evenings
it will be as much relishing as the usual
draught of tea. The hot water assists to
complete the digestion of residual food, it
acts upon the kidneys, and rinses out the
effete matters. and thus will be found to
wake one up sufficiently, and neither
to injure the stomach nor to keep the brain
awake after bed time. In cold weather
warm water is by far the best drink at
dinner time, and in hot weather draugh
of warm water is far wholesomer and
more cooling than cold or iced water.
The use of iced water Is one of the most
destructive habits in which our American
cousins indulge-not because it cools them
or quenches their thirst. but simply be.
cause they have acquired bad habits and
demoralized their palates. At a hotel in
the United States, guests will be seen
slipping hot coffee, iced milk and other
things alternately, as well as devouring in
no time, a vast quantity of viands, on the
principle of "devil take the hindmost,"
and mixing up in their mouths substances
which to an ordinary Englishman seem 10
make strange medley. 1t may be that
the "devil takes the hindmost" at the hotel
tab les, but am certain that afterwards
the foremost; for nowhere else do we see
a nation of dyspeptics and such a need for
dentists.

Lady Bloomfield. in her "reminiscences
recently published in England, tells q
good story at the expense of her own
father. On account OF his dislike of the
noise of children he was accustomed te
isolate himself from the younger members
of his family Walking out one day he
met nurse carrying babe in her arms
and being struck by the beauty of the
infant, he inquired whose child it was.
The nurse, much astonished, answered
"Ycur own, Sir Thomas"
Another funny story is told of a poor
curate, who, at large party, was deplor-
ing the large family he had TO educate
with a very small income, saying to the
Oxford bishop. "Do you know, my lord, l
have nineteen childrenp' Upon which a
red-faced woman with squeaky voice,
exclaimed, Only fourteen by me, Mr..
Jonesr'

Look OVER TIT is said that John
Wesley was once walking along road
with a brother, who related to him his
troubles, saying he did not know what he
should do. They were at the moment
passing stone fence to a meadow, over
which a COW was looking. "Do you
know" said Wesley, "why the cow looks
over that wallP" NO." replied the one
in trouble. II will tell you" said Wesley,
"because shc cannot look through it; and
that is what you must do with your
troubles; look ouer and above them"
Depend upon it, IN me midst OF al nS snS
all the ignorance of God and his greatness,
the man or woman who can say, THY
will be DONE" with the true heart OF
giving up, is nearer the secret of things
than the geologist or theologian'-Geo.

LET THERE DE LIGHT. "
BIZ CLARA l. BEMIs, NJ. L. A., Montpelier, VI

There was miiai sht dlrkness over.the earth,
Like shroud it enveloped the land.
And the throbbing, vibrating blackness seemed
Full of werdest phantoms on ever hand
Till the words Of God.--" Let there be light )"
Brought the beautiful, newborn day in sight.
But this gloom becomes being of light,
BY the side of the pitiful shade
That for ages darkenei the souls of men
Who had never heard of the ransom paid
On the cross, by Him who died for all
Who will listen to his most loving call
So they bowed them down to idols of wood
And to hideous idols of clay.
Superstition bound them with .cruel chains.
For they never knew of a better way.
Not star shone forth in their dark night,
Through the darkness CLEANED no ray of light.
Then the message came,-"Go forth in the world,
To the uttermost lies of the sea.
Let the nations hear that died for all,
Let them leave their idols and come to me.
And my love shall Danish sin and.night,
For my kingdom is one Of peace and.light."
So Gods messengers, obeying the call.
In all lands the glad tdings proclaimed,
That the lamp of life giveth peace and rest,
That it shineth always where Christ is named,
And the wonderous words" Let there be light"
Once again in the world dispelled the night.
And the people cropping blindly for rest,
For glimpse of the heavenly way,
In the Word of God found til steps revealed,
And are coming in to the perfect day.
Let the words of love reacn around tn Q world,
Let the banner OF Christ be still unfurled,
Till there is no mig ght in all our fair land
Till the message of peace and of love
Has been heard by all of the chi Idreu nj man
And they find their way to the home above,
May the words resound, Let there be light"
Till the world shall be saved through Jesus migl

"What shall we teach our boys" Teach
them to be better than you are; teach
them to be honest, sincere, unselfish, and
above all things, to be pure. Teach them
that there is no sex in morals. and bu
one standard of right for both sexes; thai
purity is as essential to manhood as to full
womanhood; that impurty will damage
man as effectually as it does a woman
that unclean language is as hateful in q
boy as in girl, and ruinous in either
Give them common school education,
besides, into which these teachings are
not apt to enter; and you may be sure
that your boys will reverence you when
you are laid TOO low to longer show your
honest, righteous pride in them.- Grand
Falls (lHich.) Post.

CHURCH. BELOVED or GOD.
BY REV. ALFRED J. HouGH. OF Woodstock.

o church, beloved of God, and called
To preach salvation full and free;
The nations, long by sin enthralled,
Await the Word of life from thee
Beyond the land that saw thy birth,
And this new world. thy power has grown;
But thou art called through all the earth
To make the great salvation known.
With Heavenly light thy banners shine,
The promises thy glorious dover;
grand perpetual priesthood, thine
Endued with Pentecostal power.
The hearty fervor OF thy speech,
Thy doctrines. well defined and broad,
The heart of heathendom shall reach,
And bring it back through Christ to God.
Thy matchless form of government
Wrought, as the body for the soul.
Shall swiftly gather and cement
The varied tribes In one great whole.
The songs thy poet preacher sung.
Rich with the wealth of Jesus name,
Translated into every tongue
Shall spread abroad revival flame.
Thy service simple, holy. sweet,
AS that enjoyed by saints above,
Shall draw the world to Jesus feet,
In one vast brotherhood of love.
Content with victories won wilt thou
No more to conquering might aspire?
The crown VIII allifrom off thy brow
And quenched will be by tongue of fire.
What groans we've heard. what tears we've sled
Before thy shrines can God forget?
The prayers of all thy sainted dead
Are waiting to be!answed yet
Thine alters bathed with tears scarce dried,
Reproach thee for tn y languid ease;
The voices of the gorited
Cry out from the eternities.
Their lives at Jesus feet the poured;
Inspired of God with faith divine,
They claimed all nations for the Lord,
This legacy of faith is thine.
Thy founder still the wide world claims,
The voice of Coke cries from the sea;
The zeal of Fletcher glows and flames.
As when he prayed at Modeley.
The visions of the holy seers.
The glory of that church to be;
In these last swiftly flying years
May all be realized in thee
This is the time the day. the hour.
OF which the prophets spoke and sung
When Christ should reign in kingly power,
Proclaimed and hailed by every tongue:
O church, beloved OF God awake
The deeds of ancient days. repeat;
The box of precious ointment break,
break thy heart at Jesus feet.
,Tis thine with faith sublimely bold
The 40" of Jesus to obey;
Evangelize the world and hold
Some annual conference every day.
Thy boarded wealth, and Offering pour!
Thy sons and daughters fire. ely give
Come Holy Ghost,-once more once more
And let the Mission spirit live.

so with conscience-we may sink so far
in sin that it ceases to reprove, for itself is
