man. The difference between doing and
dreaming is made by patience, persist
ence, steadfastness, frmness. Patience
is firmness in enduring pain, physical or
mental; persistence is firmness exercising
force against obstacles steadfastness is
firmness adhering to purpose. l meet,
in every walk in life, men whose Tissue
cess used to be mystery to me. They
are brilliant in conception, fertile in re-
source energetic in action and yet their
lives are failures. Men of less capability
win the successes their friends we're con.
fdent they would win. l now know
where always to look for the secret of
these failures; unstable as water, they
could not excel. To cultivate firmness,
never enter on an undertaking until you
have counted the cost. Forecast the diff
culties and impediments in your way.
When you have once entered on an I'M
dertaking, never abandon it because of
difficulties and impediments, unless your
judgment definitely pronounces it impos.
sible. Then abandon it absolutely and
forever. Never leave one enterprise half
done because another looks easier. All
enterprises look easy before they are
undertaken. After you have begun your
work get all the counsel you can as to
how it shall be accomplished never listen
to any advice as to whether it shall be
accomplished. The worst possible symbol
to put on your coat of arms is an interro
cation mark. No man can develop a
spirit of courageous firmness who lives in
perpetual doubt about himself and bis
work. Believe in your work believe in
yourself. And believe in both because
you believe that God has given you your
work to do. Fear not for am with
thee: be not dismayed for 1 am thy
God !" this is the secret of the divinest
irmuess. He who possesses this secret Of
the Lord, who believes himself set in his
place and given his work by God, has the
means for preserving an unwearied pa
thence, an mistaken persistence, an unfal
tering steadfastness.-Ch Christian Union.

The Exercise OF Christian Duties.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger l
clip the following, which l propose to
take as text for few practical remarks
" No faculty is developed, no quality is
acquired, no power is gained except by
constant exercise; and if we desire our
young people to grow up into valuable
men and women, we must accustom them
gradually but steadily to assume RESPONSE
bility, to exert their will and force of
character, to give out as we'll as to take in,
to act as we'll as to learn. Then life will
be succession of steps naturally follow
ing each other, each of which will prepare
the way easily and thoroughly for the
next, and each of which will bring new
light, broader views and higher abilities
to bear upon increasing duties and re.
sponsibilities as they arise" The edito-
rial in which the above occurs relates to
secular affairs but are not the remarks
equally applicable 10 religious affairs, and
might not every minister in Philadelphia,
and throughout the whole country, make
use of the hints in bringing their congre
cations up to standard where they would
indeed be co-workers with them in calling
many from the power of sin to life of
righteousness We know of one church
in Philadelphia (the Memorial, corner
Eighteenth street and Montgomery ave-
nue,) in which these hints or precepts are
utilized in its prayer.meetings, and the
result is most wonderful. Instead of the
minister or any one or two of the older
members occupying the whole evening
with remarks or prayers, the young men
and visitors in the congregation are not
only invited, but urged to take part, and
though they do 80 at first with very great
reluctance, and possibly break down in
their first or second effort, yet they are
encouraged to try again and again, and
ere long become fluent, able and effective
speakers upon religious subjects. The
pastor CDR. Mutchmore) still further en-
coursges these new efforts among his
younger members by giving out week in
advance the special subject to be consid-
cred at the following Friday evening
meeting. We have attended a great
many prayer and conference meetings in
our lifetime. but never one in which
religious faculty was developed by exer-
else 30 thoroughly or so effectually as in
this, and we have related the example
with the hope that other ministers and
churches would be induced to follow it,

NATIONAL life, to be worth anything,
must be an effort, and to decaying peo-
pie all effort is painful. Activity and
endurance form the channels through
which national strength flows, just as all
true religion is strengthened by its self
denial, its sorrows and its crosses. The
preservation of the human race itself is
but the continual succession of pain undei
the provisions of the mystery of suffering
and nstionalities stand upon the same
footing, as all history shows.-1homas

How Watch Cases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar i'm.
provements in the making of silver cases,
Under the old methods, each part of
silver case was made of several pieces OF
metal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
softened the metal and gave it the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent for every one knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering soitens it,
To test the superiority of the Keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one of OF. weight,
press it squarely in the center when closed,
and it will not give, while case of same
weight of any other make will give enough
to break the crystal. The Keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints.

Winning Battles.

Hard pounding, gentlemen" said
Wellington to his aids, at the battle of
Waterloo; 1--WE will see who can pound
the longest" 1t is this long pounding
that wins life's battles. There is value in
force, but the greatest value is in the most
persistent force. Victories are won by
overcoming obstacles. He who by his
patient persistence vanquishes them, is
the victor. The man who is always try

WHAT is ministerial success Is it
crowded churches, full aisles, attentive
congregations, the approval of the relig-
ious world, much impression produced ?
Elijah thought so; and when he found
out his mistake and discovered that the
applause on Carmel subsidized into hideous
stiffness, his heart well-nigh broke with
disappointment. Ministerial success lies
in altered lives and obedient, humble
hearts-unseen work, recognized in the
judgment day.-F. w. Robertson.

THE man who makes long prayer,
and then Expresses the hireling, is as an
uncean beast in the sanctuary; 30 is the
man who would not part with leaf from
his catechism, yet makes his home very
hell by his fiendish temper; so is the
man who spends his life in seeming the
heresies of doctrine and yet cultivates the
blacker heresies of life.-Dr. JOSEPH
Parker.
