On LOaning Books.

A good home stands for more in the com.
munity than its busy inmates ever realize, es-
pecialy il 1t is one whose "latchstring hangs
out" Into it come many who are troubled,
or perplexed, or hungry in mind or heart;
and out OF it goes the strong help, the cherry
word, the mental and moral food. Wise
words from one individual to another face to
face and heart to heart, are always the best
words, but many persons are not able to ut
TER these. Either they are timid, or lack
expression, or feel too keenly sympathetic to
say the decisive hard word, or are not brave
enough to say the one that is as disagreeable
as 1t is true; or, the one who needs help has
given no outward showing that the needed
severe, or tender, or analytical or moral
word will be understood. Yet ii should be
said who will say itP
Perhaps your friend, or neighber, or ser
want, ar sewing girl, or restless errand boy,
is just wavering between the right and the
wrong decision. Do you not know some
printed word that will make it easier for
them to choose aright2 Is your friend sad
does life look dark just now; has failure
come are there clouds in sight? You know
where there are cheerful aud comforting
words, for you read them only the other day.
Perhaps you meet some one who is only
weary with the heavy things Of daily life.
People often complain that their books are
borrowed and not returned. To guard against
this keep little memorandum book and pen
Gil hanging beside your bookcase, with which
to keep q list of loaned volumes. Two book
cases of generous size, stand ready, in my
home to aid in this kind ofservice for others.
Our friends laughingly call them our "crcu-
lating library" All of the bucks are never
in. They are out doing genuine missionary
work. They are sent with special thought
and hope to meet some individual need. For
years they have spoken the good word, and
have come back, all but two, to 60 forth
again in helpful ministry.
To be sure they come back with worn covers
and soied edges, the result of use, not abuse,
bnt trifling losses are far Outweighed by posi-
tive gains. Weak souls have been strength
ened, sad ones gladdened, tired ones rested,
merry ones pleased, and hungry ones fed. l
have seen perceptible growth mentally and
morally by this use of books. Speak the
good word whenever and whenever you
can, for that is best but do not be afraid to
call too frequently or too largely upon the
ever ready friends, waiting upon your book
shelves, to aid in the good work.

Two Great CuriOsities.

A traveller once with great seriousness re-
lated TO a large company that he had travel
ed through all the world, and had seen at
least one curiosity which had never yet been
mentioned by an author. This wonder, &C.
cording to his assertion, was cabbage-plant
so large that under one single leaf fifty armed
horseman in battle array could station them
selves and perform their evolutions. No
one who heard this exaggeragation deemed IL
worthy of refutation; but one said, with ut
most composure and GOODNESS that he, too, had
been somewhat of traveller, and had been as
far as Japan, where, 10 his astonisb-
ment, he had seen more than three hundred
coppersmiths at work upon an immense
cauldron, and that five hundred men were
to be employed TO smooth and polish it. "For
what purpose, then, would they wish to use
this monsious cauldron ?" asked the first
trayeles, sneeringly. "For cooking the cab
bage-plants, sir, such as you were telling us
about just now was the answer.
