business is methodicaI system which
almost deserves 10 rank as an exact science.
Ponderous books record the transactions Of
the day with great minuteness, and ac-
counts involving millions are made 70 bal
ance to a penny. Yet here is the young
Napoleon Of finance, Henry S. Ives,
hardly more than a mere youth, who walk
up to great railroad corporation without
any capital, and rigs q derrick by which he
soon lifts the whole concern and takes
practical possession of it. Surrounded by
first class business men Of long experience,
this adyenturer manages to buy the stock

he had first borrowed Various banks de-
nberatey certify his checks when he had
nothing in the world to meet them but

How Father Taylor and Henry Ward
Heecher Made Use of Them.

The true preacher, the lone who loves his
fellow men," never fails to seize an oppor-
tunity of ministering to their needs. Any
occurrence of the present moment furnishes
text. Hugh McCulloch says IN 'AIen and
Measures of Half a Century, that one day,
as Father Taylor entered his chapel, d note
was handed him, containing text from
which he was desired to preach
1t was signed can Aged Seaman" and
instead of preaching from the verse, Fa-
Their Taylor made this signature his text.
can aged seamanr' he repeated, sadly:
Gan aged seamanl and why are there so
few aged seamens Why is it, that among
the hundreds before me there is not
single old man, scarcely one who is past
middle agea"
Then, in trumpet tones, he went on to
enumerate the vices which cut men off in
their prime, and spoke of each mans &C
cOunJabllity for putting to noble uses the
talents he had received. Finally, he dwelt
upon the dangers to which all mariners are
exposed, and conclu ded in tones which
brought tears to every eye: "God save the
mariners when no human hand can save, in
the raging of the great deep! God be mer-
ciful to those who are sunk in vices deeper
and more dreadful than the seal''
AS he knelt to pray his hearers knelt al
so, tears streaming down their checks
Henry Ward Beecher was once called
upon unexpectedly to attend, at the
wretched place where he died, the funeral
of man who had long been drunkard
The man had no family, but large number
Of his associates, blear-eyed and hard-faced
men, had assembled to show their regard
for him. The preacher did not shrink from
the cross of addressing them personally,
and, with the terrible example of the dead
man before their eyes, warning them that
their own future might be as grievous as
his. The men wept like children, and two
of them were afterwards absolutely tenn
