And when, as it shall one day come
to pass, these windows shall be filled
with the memorials of the sanity and
the honored lives of those who have
gone up from the earthly beginnings
of this life to its higher consummations
in heaven, this church shall bear in
upon our minds the reality of this re-
ligiOus life, whose power has so fixed
itself in human spirits. We shall be
reminded then that in the last test of
truth, its application to human life,
our gospel faith has indicated itself,
and given us men and women embody-
ing its own highest principles. 1t will
be good for US, when we come within
these walls, to be reminded of those
who once walked beside us on earth,
living witnesses of the truth, its own
best proof, and the Indictment to our
wills to live in obedience to its calls.
1t is a joy to all loving hearts when a
man is born into the world. 1t is a
cause for profounder joy when a man,
faithful after earth's temptations,
brave through all its wars, tender
amidst all that hardens and chills the
heart, reyerent and aspiring amid
much that darkens faith, is taken up

First of all, the church speaks to him
who enters its vestibule. He is met at
the very entrance with spiritual sug
gestion. This is the house of God. 1t
is the place of worship and of prayer.

the very structure of the building
seems to say: Wait Do not enter

this glazing, staring outer world from
which you come and that quiet, solemn

little strip of space between the outer
and the inner doors a place in which
you may discharge your minds of
worldly thoughts, and prepare them for
the exercises to which you go. That
is what the church says to him who
stands within its porch, pausing at
the threshold of the inner temple. Is it
not a hint worth taking? Should
there not be cOmposure in the mind
which goes to worship God, which ex
cludes something of the frivOlousness
and the moral listlessness of everyday
life, and subdues it at least to serious

HENRY OF BATTENBERG.

Queen victOrfa's SOn-in-Iaw Saves Three
Persons from Drowning.
Prince Henry of Battenberg, whom
the Queens loyal subjects delight in
calling ''our German BURDEN" has COW
cred himself with glory and caused his
revilers to come near acknowledging
that he is a pretty good fellow after all.
The cause OF this change of feeling is
as follows: Battenberg has been at
tending the Queen like dutiful SON.
in-law. While the chubby little Prince
of Wales is enjoying himself on the con-
tinent squeezing his roly-poly form into
innumerable new uniforms that cost the
Queens subjects loads of money, the
royal fashion-plate, Prince Albert Vic
tor, is devoting his time to the task OF
purchasing red and blue scarfs and
high collars, and Prince George is
making love to American Duchesses, the
humble German Prince, who has moth.
ing but his pay for the job of being the
husband of the Queens daughter, re-
mains at Osborne or Windsor. the only
male representative of the family near
her Majesty. One day Prince Henry,
as is his wont, went hunting alone at
Balmoral. On his return to the castle
late in the afternoon his attention was
attracted by cries for help coming from
the direction of a small but deep lake
near by, where the attendants at the
castle were in the habit of boating.
Ro+% 10 <lo
came the cries and saw two young
women and a child struggling in the
water. Their boat had met with an
accident and went to the bottom.
Quick as flash the German Prince
Invested himself of his heavy hunting
coat and accouterments and plunged
into the water. The child, a little girl,
was on the point of sinking for the last
time, when Battenberg grabbed her by
the hair, and then, with the other two
women clinging to him as best they
could, he brought the three safely on
shore.
The young man said nothing about
the rescue when he returned to the
castle. but one of the young women, a
governess, told the story to ono of her
friends. and it finally reached the
Queen. 1t is said that her Majesty
has magnanimously allowed her heroic
son-in-law 9l0o more per year, which
the people will have to stand. Henry
may also get the Colonelcy Of some
Highland regiment. He is now only
a Captain.-London Cor. N. 7. Press.
