A RRVIVALIST PREA CHING on TIE BIBLE"
The Rev A. P. Cobb, an evangelist who has labored
with great success in various large cities OF this
country, Is creating stir in the Church OF the Dis
cples of Christ, In Fifty -sXthst He differs from
most evangelsts in not exhoring unbellevers TO
acknowledge a certain creed. and In urging them to
confess Jesus and enter Christian life, selecting
aftsrward their religious home. He succeeded yester-
day in gaining several converts to the Christian
faith The meetings at the church take place every
night and will continue for month
The subject of the sermon yesterday was A Rare
Book" Among other things the evangelist said:
The Bible is rare book. First, in its age. The
oldest part Of IT, Job, written 1900 years before
Christ. Here IS book older than David or Solomon.
Again, it is rare because of its authors This book
was written for the exatation of the man, nor the
defence Of the theory, but holy of God spake as
they moved by the Holy Spirit 1t is rare also
because OF its mission No other book has been
written the object of which has been the conversion
of the whole world And II Is rare, too, because OF
its subject and influence. Webster drew cOpOusly
from IL. John Quincy Adams read every morning
a chapter from his Hebrew Bible. Sir Walter scott,
aud when asked hat book. replied, an you ask
a dying what book To such a man, there can
be but book-the Bible Million ded with tho
music OF the Psalms falling upon his ears. Finally,
II is because of its durability All flesh IS as
grass and all the glory Of the flower OF grass.
The grass withereth. and the flower Thereof faleth
away, but the Word OF the Lord endureth forever

THE BABY's DRAWER.
BI Mlss. I. T. BUTTS

There's y little drawer in my chamber.
Guarded with tenderest care,
Where the dainty clothes are lying
That my darling shall never wear.
And there, whilst the hours are waning,
Til the house is all at rest,
| sit and fancy a baby
Close to my aching breast.
My darling's pretty, white garments.

While his mystic life was throbbing
Under my throbDing heart
Aud often my happy dreaming
Breaks in little song.
Like the murmur of birds at broodina.
When the days are warm and long.
l finished the dainty wardrobe,
And the drawer was almost full.
With robes Of the finest muslin,
Aud robes of the finest wool.

With rose for every pair.
Smiling, and saying, Gem fragrant,
Fit for my prince to wear"
All, the radiant summer morning,
So full Of mothers Joy!
THANK God he is fair and perfect.
My beautiful newborn boy"
Let him wear the pretty, white garments
Wrought while sitting apart;
Lay him, so sweet and so helpless,
Here, close to my thrObbing heart.
Many and many an evening

Saying, "What do the angels call himP"
For he died without name;
Sit while the hours are waning.
And the house is all at rest.
And fancy baby nesting
Close to my aching breast.
