THE POWER OF GRACE.

More Needed in the Home Than in Pub
lie-The Minister'S Lesson.
There is an old story of a certain
minister who, in arranging his toilet
for his parochial calls, found a button
gone from his shirt-collar, and all at
once the good mans patience left him.
He fretted and scolded, and said I'M
dignified and unkind things, until the
tired wife burst into tears and escaped
to her room. The hours of the after
noon wore away, during which the par
son called upon old brother Jones. who
was all bowed down with rheumatism,
and found him patient and even cheer
full; upon young brother Hall wasting
away with the consumption, and found
him anxious to go and be with Christ;
upon good old Grandmothe her Smith,
in her poor, miserable howell of
a home, and found her singing
one of the good old hymns
as happy as bird; upon young Mrs
Brown. who had few weeks before
buried her only friend, and found her
trustful and serene in the view of God s
love which had come to her through
her affection. The minister went home
filled with what he had seen, and when
evening came, and he was seated in
his easy-chair, his good wife near him
busy with her needles, he could not
help saying: What wonderful thing
grace is! How much it will do! There
is nothing beyond its power! Wonder
full! Wonderful! 1t can do all things. !"
Then the little wife said: 'Yes. it is
wonderful, indeed; but there is one
thing the grace of God does not seem
to have the power to do" .Ah. what

it in candor or GESTURE l can not say"

lawyer of the city bar, who had the
ambition to shine as law-maker IN
the State Senate. He was telling his
fellow-citizens why he was the best

OVERLOOKED WOMEN,
Why a Mothers Life Should BE Restf
Refuge to Her Family.

Why Mothers Life Should BE a Restful
Refuge to Her Family.
The wife and mother who spends her
life in overworking herself is untitled
for the higher and holier duties of her
position. 1t is a mistaken idea that IA
woman fultills her duty by the per-
Torrance of labor beyond her strength;
indeed there is no sadder sight than
that of broken down, WORKOUT young
wife and mother, aged in the prime of
life-as some one expresses it. "a
woman who is tired all through her
life.'
A mothers life should be a restful
refuge to both children and husband,
where peace and joy can always be
found. She should be the adviser and
guardian of the former and the tender
confdant and loving, helpful COM
panion of the latter; but to the over
worked, wearied woman who knows no
rest. day nor night, such happiness is
out of the question. Woman is sus-
ceptible creature; her surroundings
and occupations shape her destiny. By
overwork her temper is soured, her
nervous system so racked that her
very nature is changed, even her affec-
ton for her loved ones is blunted, and
the burdens of wifehood and mother
hood are so heavy that their joys are
forgotten-and the mother finds no
time to exercise the hottest rights of
womanhood, that of training and form
ing to virtue the children committed
to her care. and of sympathies with
and guiding to a better life the hus-
band of her choice.
Such women grow to regard life,
with its ills and trials, only curse,
and intensely long for the rest which
will be eternal. Better, far better, let
every thing go unfinished, and live in a
less tidy house, set a palmer table and
dress her children with more simplic-
ity, than bring upon herself and family
the curse of overwork and its fatal
consequences Home Com
