Live for Something.

Thousands of men breathe, move
and live-pass off the stage of life
and are heard of no more. Why
None were blessed by them, none
could point to them as the means oi
redemption;not q line they wrote
not word they spoke could be re-
called, and SO they perished; their
light went out in darkness, and they
were not remembered more than the
insects of yesterday. Will you live
thus and die? o, man immortal, live
for something. Do good and leave
behind you monument OF virtue that
the storms of time cannot destroy.
Write your name by kindness, love,
and mercy, on the heart of thousands
you come in contact with year by
year, and you will never be forgotten.
No, your name, your deeds, will be as
legible in the hearts you leave be-
hind as the stars on the brow of the
evening. Good deeds will shine as
brightly on earth as the stars of heav-
en.-Dr Chalmers.

More Sunlight aud Air Needed for Health
an. Comfort.

One cause OF the extreme nervous
neso of American women is living toe
much in the darkness when indoors
says the Herald of Health. The
roo rs are kept dark to save tho car
pet and keep ouI the flies, and as a
con sequence both the house and the
occupants lack the benefits OF fresh
air and sunshine. Houses from
which the sun is excluded arc not
wholesome. There is always damp
depressing condition in them that
makes itself evident at once to q
sensitive temperament The minds
and bodies of all who live in such
houses are affected by it. Both health
and spirits ara depressed. Tho oc-
cupants have not only the depressing
effect of the lack Of light and sun to
contend against but the reaction con-
sequent upon living in unwholesome
conditions. All the rooms in the
house should have both light and
sunshine freely admitted at all times,
whether they are in daily use or not.
They are thus kept sweet and are in
good condition when they are want
ed.
Nelson Sizer once said when max
ing a chronological examination:
"Be as much AZ possible in the sun
shine. People who live in dark
rooms and wear black are pale all
through" You cannot have too
much of light and sunshine, either in
your lives or in your houses for good
health. You may live, but it is not
all of life to live. Merely to exist is
but small part of our work in this
world. We should 80 live that body
and mind are at all times in their
best condition. We are then ready
and able to do whatever duty may
be required of us in such way that
the doing merely shall be pleasur-
able, and the reaction on ourselves
and others beneficial. 1t should be,
in fact, the ereligious duty of everyone
80 to live.
Many woman and child have
oeen scrifced to save the carpets and
Keep out the flies. Many fit of ill
1ess has resulted from the same
cause. Many disappointed cheer
ess life can be traced back to the
sunless room as beginning. Mul-
,itudes of women and children are
only half living to-day because only
lalf fed. Sunshine and light and air,
ire as much food for body and soul,
Is the fruits and grains and vegeta-
,les that we take into our stomacs
md we can not get surfeit of them
IS of food, the more we have the bet
er.

Thou Fool.

To how many in this broad, pros
porous, Christian land did the sud
den death of William III. Vanderbilt
recall the parable ofanother rich man
who was chiefly concerned in adding
to his vast possessions? The parallel
between the two cases is irresistible.
The ground of certain rich man
brought forth abundantly, and he rea-
soned with himself saying: What
shall / do, because L have not where
to bestow my fruits? And he said:
This will do; will pull down my
barns and build greater, and there
will bestow all my fruits and my
goods. And L will say to my soul:
Thou hast much goods laid up for
many years; take thine ease, eat, drink
and be merry. But God said unto
him: Thou fool, this night thy soul
shall be required Of thee; then whose
shall these things be which thou hast
provided?
William II. Vanderbilt was heir to
millions. To them he added other
millions until the sum of riches passed
almost beyond the understanding of
of his fellow-man. He lived within o
world of his OWE, the center and Cir
cumference of which was gold. He
made several gifts to worthy benefac-
tions, but they were made with his
hand and not his heart. Humanity
had little consideration in the order
ing of his life. When the telegraph
flashed his celebrated utterance: "The
public be d-dl" throughout the
country no one doubted that he said
it. Long before that the people of
this nation knew the estimation in
which they and their rights were held
by Mr.. Vanderbilt. Throughout his
life he never tired of the labor of
accumulating wealth. He studied
markets and neglected mankind. And
in the midst of his plans, while yet he
was perfecting schemes to add to his
colossal fortune, with railway exten
sion on his lips and the vision Of in
creased wealth in his mind, he was
smitten down. Time was not given
him to summon his household to re-
ceive a parting word. He fell for
ward dead. His soul was required
Of him, and all his accumulated mil
lions could not buy him one instant's
respite.
His physician says that Mr.. Van
derbilt died because he had too much
TO think Of. II be had said that his
patient thought too much on one
thing he would have been nearer the
truth. A man cannot think too much
unless it be on one subject, and then
the end is insanity or death He who
devotes the whole energies Of his
body and mind 10 The acquisition Of
wealth is as much fool to-day as the
rich man in the parable, and when he
dies be bequeathsnothing 10 mankind
except the moral Of . wasted hfe and
an unmOarned death We say this
with 81 charity for Mr Vanderbifs

Wanted n Man.

An esteemed contemporary assert
that a young lady graduate at Mead
vile, Pa, selected as a subject fol
her essay, "Wanted-A Man.. Ant
though, of course, she only expressed
the sentiment of every girl in the
graduating class--and every girl in
the universe, for that matterl--th6
confession seems to be creating some
surprise, OF course, the young lady
graduate went on to say that it was
not any sort of man she wanted. II
was not dude, with smooth hair, nor
a mere dashing beau, in good clothes,
much less q spendthrift, loud, but
would-be-respectable scamp, who
would first ruin his wife's life and
then mortgage her silver The young
lady graduate, of course, wanted a
man that amounted to something,
that was somebody, and could do a
mans part in the household and the
world. In this, too, she expressed
the universal yearning of all the girl
graduates-and the other girls, too.
But, bless their dear hearts {! did it
ever occur TO them to ask of what
earthly use the average girl graduate
could be to such man? Will she
paint plaques for him7 fling little bits
of French in his ears! drum on the
piano, and rack his nerves9 dress fine
for the street, and be dowd at home?
neglect her body and her mind, and
think that her only mission is to be
cared for? Of course, she wants o
one badly, but suppose
she begins to query what she will do
with him, or for him, when he is
found.

NOW.

Arise, for the day is passing,
And you lie dreaming on;
The others have buckled their armor
And forth to the fight have gone.
A place in the ranks awaits you,
Each man has some part to play;
The past and future are nothing
In the face of the stern to-day.
Rise from the dreams of the future,
Of gaining some hsrd-fought field,
Of storming some airy fortress,
Or bidding some giant yield.
Your future has deeds of glory,
Of honor, (God grant it may y
But your arm will never be stronger
Or your need SO great as to-day.
Risel if the past detains you,
Her sunshine and storms forget;
No chains SO unworthy to hold you
AS those of q vain regret.
Sad OF bright, she is lifsless ever,
Cast her phantom arms away,
Nor look back save to learn the lesson
OF nobler strife to-day.

THE HIDDEN LIFE.

There is life by man unseen,
A life, the soul and God between,
Nor mortal eve may mark the strife,
Or quiet, Of that hidden life.
Our feeble vision can but scan
The outward merits of tho man;
And virtue to our sight be plain,
When God heholds q crimson stain.
A brothers sin will oftimes rise
To mountain height before our eyes,
While He who knoweth each intent
May write that brother innocent.
There is life to man unknown,
Between the soul and God alone,
Nor human line may sound the deep
Where human pride and passions sleep.
But to the great Omnisciept eye,
Our inner lives uncovered lie;
No inner thought of thine or mine
Can hide beyond Gods sounding line.
Our hearts should hold how lightly then
The praise and prejudice of men!
Esteeming rather to be right
And blameless in Jehovah's sight.
Oh! may we strive from day TO day
To shape each purpose to His way,
Who knoweth all the Christians strife.
And seeth all his hidden life.
M. Il. Maitland, IN Christian at Work
