IN THE DARK.

When kissed her that night in the hallway,
Twas so dark that nothing was plain;
And not being sure but I'd miss her
Why twas right should kiss her again.
There was dar kness on everything ronnd us,
was reachin & In vain for the door,
And the while was seeking an exit
1t SO happ ened / kissed her some more.
And wasn't quite sure as left her,
AS to whether she liked it or not;
But know that sighed TO be back there
The farther away that got
And the next time called. it SO happened
That we stood in the hallway once more;
And the gaslight fell over and round US,
AS quietly moved to the door.
But her red cheeks so rogushly dimpled,
And her eyes shone SO wickedly bright,
That l guessed where her thoughts were
aStray
And reached up and turned out the light.

many folks like me saying that they
were middling, that is, neither good
nor bad but really, when l think Of
the mOtter in the way you put it, /
begin to be somewhat doubtful
whether / am right. Yet, / assure
you, sir | do not think l should be
called a bad old man."
"JOh, did you ever see Il middling
gold dollar? Or did You ever see a
middling bank note?"
"No, never, Mr.. F-;they are al
ways either good or bad. But have
known some bad ones to pass for
good ones"
"Well, John, if you never saw
middling money, you never saw
middling men; that is, as before
God. God is being of perfect holt
ness, infinite purity, and he judges
according to a perfect standard. TO
be accepted OF him, we must be per-
fectly fitted for his approval.
He cannot adopt middling men
and call them good. You must eth
er be righteous or unrighteOus-eith-
er saint or sinner. A 'middling'
man has no existence in Gods sight.
So, friend John, l want you to think
seriously on this matter; you cannot
serve two masters At this moment
you are either serving God or Satan,
You cannot be a middling man. You
can have no middling cause, no mid
ding life, no middling death, and nc
middling destiny!'
Reader, as | have said to John, sc
l say to you. You are at this mo-
ment either good or bad-righteou,
or unrighteous-in Gods sight. You
cannot be middling. You are chile
of God or a servant of the wicked
one; You are pardoned or unpardon
ed you are either a subject Of God
grace or you are under his condemna
ton. If you consider this whole sub
ject Alright, as an inevitable conclu
sion you will be brought to say ,tha
while you read this, you are eithe
fit for heaven or fit for hell. If right
eous, you will go where the righteou
are; if unrighteous, you will g
where the wicked are. There is n
; middling being; therefore there ca
be no middle place for that whicl
: does not exist.

What the Deacon Said.

many man that calls himself hon

what amount Of debts heavens books
are going to show against him. I've
learned that. There were years in
my life when / hardly gave cent to
the Lord without begrudging it, and
I've wondered since what I'd ever
have talked about if I'd gone to heav,

about anything but bargains and
money-getting here, and those
wouldn't have been suitable subjects
up yonder.
"Well, in those years l was telling
you about, it was dreadful how l
cheated the Lord out of his due. Once
in long time / paid little to our
church, but l didn't give a cent to
anything else. Foreign mission Sun

Not Very Good Nor Very Bad; Or, The
W Middling Man. 4.

From what you have said, John,
it seems you think yourself pretty
fair kind of man."
"Well, Mr.. F., | will tell you my
opinion about that exactly. i don't
think / ever did much was bad; nor
can say that ever did great deal
of good. / think you may call me a
middling man,"
"That is your opinion, John? But
don't you think that everything that
exists must have had a cause from
which it sprung?"
Certainly do, Mr.. F., for old
John is not 50 void of sense as not to
know that"
"Well, John, what do you suppose
causes a man to be gOod?"
God, of course"
"And what do you tink causes a
man to be bad?"
1.-The devil, most certainly; for
God never made anything bad
but, John, what is the cause of a
middiing man."
"W-e-ll,I sup posse"
"John, | perceive you have got
fast there. You say God is the cause
of a good man, and Satan the cause
Of bad man, but you say that
you you are neither-you are

must have had Il cause that made
you what you are. But as there l.

as a sort of losing business.
"Well, my little girl Mamie was
about eight years old then, and | was
dreadful proud of her, for she was a
smart little thing. One Sunday night
we were sitting by the fire, and
Nannie'd been saying her catechism,
and by and by she got kind of quiet
and sober, and all of sudden she
turned to me, and says she, PA, will
we have to pay any rent in heaven "
'What?' says l, looking down at
her, kind of astonished like.
"'Will we have to pay rent in
heaven?' says she again.
"'Why, no. says I. what made

"Well, couldn't get out of her for
time what she did mean. Mamie
didn't know much about rent, any
how, for we'd never had to pay any

| found out that she'd heard some
men talking about me, and one of
them said, well, he's bound to be
awful poor in the next world, l
reckon. There amt much of his
riches laid up in heaven And as
the only real poor folks that Nannie'd
ever known were some folks down at
the village that had been turned out
of doors because they couldn't pay
their rent, that's what put it into
Nannie's head that maybe that I'd
have to pay rent in heaven.
"Well, wife went on and talked to
Mamie, and explained to her about

For for this cause pay we tribute also: for
they are Gods ministers, attending continu'
ally upon this very thing.-Rom. 10: 6.
The apostle in the preceding verse
had said "Wherefore we must needs
be subject, not only for wrath, but
also for conscience sake. Then he
adds. For for this cause-that is for
conscience sake-pay We tribute also;
for they-that is the civil officers

tinually upon this very thing. The
state then clearly was a divine war.
rant for levying tax upon its sub
iects to defray the expenses of the
government. Any form of govern
ment that with any degree of faithful
ness cares the welfare of the subjects,
and preserves anything like good or
der gives to the people more than an
equivalent for all the cost of the gov
eminent even when eXtravagantly
administered. OF course the govern
ment must be as little burdensome
as is consistent with efficiency. How
the revenue shall be raised for its
support is a question for the law
makers and not for the preacher.
But whatever laws are passed every
Christian man is bound in conscience
to obey, No man may seek to evade
any tax levied by laws and be free
from sin before God.
When the tax is levied upon real
and personal property every man is
bound in conscience toward God tC
make a full return of all he has, al
a fair and honest valuation. To dc
this is a religious duty imposed by
direct command of the Lord. Some
who are honorable in all their deal
ings with individual fellow men, ac
upon the principle that there can be
no harm to evade the payment of OBJ
legations 10 the State. These look upor
all taxes asimposed upon them, none!
wrung from them for which no jus
equivalent is returned. 1t is true on
government is not what it ought t,
be, nor what every good man Ough
to determine it should be. Their,
are hardships in its uneven distribu
ton of taxes. Our courts often fail t
give protection to the good and t
punish the evil. Yet with all its i'm
PROJECTIONS it is good government
worthy of every mans love and al
legiance. In the protection it give
to every man in his own life, home
and prosperity; it gives more, niue
more than an equivalent for all
cost to maintain it.
To discharge all my duties as a cit
zen, to pay my taxes honestly and
do it all as unto the Lord is as muc
part of religious duty as prayer, {
attending Gods house or any acts
piety. The only possible test of tn
trueness of my faith in Christ jest
is my obedience to Him in all thing
His own word is, "If any man loN
me, he will keep my commandment
This is His commandments-"Fc
for this cause pay we tribute also
Only when faithfully do this,
obedient to Him, can l have ar
evidence that / am a christian.

A Stupid Error.

The most stupid of all errors which
a sinner can cling to is the notion
that time will make him better. His
sins may give up him: it will not
avail unless he also gives up his sins.
Time is nothing; it is an agent;
it is but mode of thought;
and if it does anything it
only makes a man verse and not
better by hardening him into evil
habits. But the grace of God calleth
you to repentance, and if you repent
mot, that golden, that inestimable
life, when once for all God has given
you must come to nothing, or better
not have been. To every soul here
which is at this moment in conscious
and unrepented sin, | say--yet not
/, but the Lord-that not health, not
success, not life itself is to you, Of
anything like an Importance so I'M
speakable as determined repentance.
1t is, it should be, for you the very
work of life.-Archdeacon Farrar.

Brings a week Of content,
