WISE WORDS.

Tell no secrets to thy servant.
If you hate man, let him live.
To know the new, search the old.
Go nine miles to see cat rather than
two TO meet tiger.
Truth is impossible to be soiled by
any outward touch as the sunbeam.
Each quality, sooner or later, visibly
or in secret, brings out its just result.
Babylon in all its desolation is sight
not so awful as that of human mind in
ruins.
No amount of social esteem and popu-
Iarity can atone for reckless use OF
money.
No amount of business enterprise or
success can make up for neglected
family.
We always like those who Admire us;
we do not always like those whom VIC
admire.
The man who stoops to pick up cent
often ruins half-a-dollar's worth of sus-
pendsrs.
A man who lends money to his friends
snail never sec cltlcL his lIiOhu VI HIS
money again.
When big ideas get into little minds
something is bound to spread. 1t is
usually the mouth.
The gram of weakness brings ruin to
the mass of strength; the drop of folly
spills the cup of wisdom.
Kindness has converted more sinners
than either zeal, eloqucnce or learning;
and these three never converted any one
unless they were kind also.
Consult with him that is wise and of
sound judgment, and seek to be in
structcd by one better than myself,
rather than to follow thine own inven-
tions.
Books outlive empires. They fly
without wings, walk without feet houses
of supply are they that without money
or price feed Spen suffering from soul
hunger loaves that increase as they are
broken, and after feeding thousands are
ready for thousands more.

at might be well,n says President Csrter,
Of Williams college, ito ascertain fairly
whether it has been a wholesome thing
to believe in Christ, as Lord, before declar-
ing Christianity to be a lie. Il is not
Christian, hut a recent positivist writer, one
who rejects Christianity, with a scorn no
less fine and intense than the quoted agnos-
tic, who nevertheless writes the answer to
that sneer.
w hat needs admitting or rather pro-
claiming by agnostics who would be just is
that the Christian doctrine has power Of
cultivatng and developing saintliness which
has had no equal i'll any other creed Of phil
osophy. When it gets firm hold Of prom
Using subject, ons with a heart and head
strong enough to grasp its full import and
scope. then it strengthens the will, raises
and purifies the affections and finally
achieves a conquest over the baser self in
man of which the result is character none
the less beautiful and soul subduing, because
1t is wholly beyond imitation by the less
spiritually endowed.'n

A Prohibition Bride Wanted.

There was small riot in Bolton re-
Gently, because marriage, which had
been anticipated with much interest, dId
not come off. The bridegroom, we'll
known tradesman, who is an ardent adj
vocate of temperance principles, went 10
the brides house before proceeding to
the church, and, placing a pledge card
before her, insisted on her at once signing
it. She refused, whereupon he announced
that there should be no wedding. The
clergymen and number of friends were
at the church, but the parties did not ap-
pear, and when the cause transpired a
number OF women assembled outside of
the brldegroom's house and pelted him
with rotten eggs and other pleasant
missiles, and so much resentment was
manifested that he found it expedient to
leave home for time. London Truth.

Alittle lad was keeping his sheep one Sum
day morning. The hells were ringing for
services at church, and thepeople were going
over the fields, when the little fellow began to
think that he too would like to pray for God.
But what could he sayl for he had never
learned prayer. SO he knelt down, and
commenced the alphabet. A, B, G, d, and SO
on toz A gentleman, happening to pass the
other side Of the hedge, heard the lads voice,
and looking through the bushes saw the little
fellow knceling, with folded hands and closed
eyes, saying A, B, G.
"What are you doing, my little mani"
The lad looked up.
"Please sir, was praying"
"But what were you saying your letters

"Why, didn't know any prayer, only
felt that wanted God to take care of me
and help me take care Of the sheep. So |
thought, if | said all knew he would put it

"Bless your heart, my little man. he W II,
he will, he will; when the heart speaks right,
the lips can't say wrong"

the heart.-LThe Sunday Hour.
