getfulness, lovingness, obedience to law
She must know in order that she may
teach her child, guard it from harm, lead
it in right ways, foresee and prevent evil
from happening to it. The Joy and re-
sponsibility OF maternity transforms many
gay and careless woman into a
thoughtful, earnest psinstaking student
of child-nature.
What lessons of faith and trust do our
little children teach Us. We love to Law
ish on them every possible evidence of
our love, and the word comes home to
US: eff We then, being evil, know how
to give good gifts unto your children:
how much more shall your heavenly
Father give the Holy Spirit to them that
ask Him ?"
By and by our children grow up and
go away from US. They have homes and
lives of their own in which their parents
have comparatively small part. They
have their own business and social circles,
perhaps their religious circle. Caught
In currents running at right angles to
those they were In when in the parent
home, they may drift far away in their
faith and practice from that they showed
allegiance to when under the parental
roof. Here comes for the parent train
ing in tolerance, in waiting, in trust. We
cannot believe or suffer Or experience
Joy or vicissitude for our children. We
cannot live their lives for them. They
must learn for themselves the lesson of
life. As we see them pursuing courses
which must end in sorrow, we can only
wait and pray that out of evil God will
still bring good.
As the years bear us on, and we retire
more and more from the labors and re-
probabilities of active life, our children
become to US increasingly what we were
to them in early maturity, In youth, in
childhood. 1t seems strange to look for
support and protection to the children
that were once, and so short time ago,
utterly dependent on us to let burdens
fall from our shoulders on to theirs, and
to feel that their banda and hearts and
brains are stronger than ours, and more
capable than ours now are of meeting the
demands of life.
Happy the parent who 30 trains his
children that their training of him is
agreeable and bene6cent

Training Parents.

There is a great deal of talk about
the training Of children by parents. Not
much is said about the training Of parents
by children, and great deal might be
said about it.
While the parent is forming OF trying
to form, habits OF gelfcontrol In the child
what habits OF seli.coutrol the child is
forming in the parent. While the moth.
er Is teaching ner little one to talk cor
rectly, how carefully is her little one
teaching her to avoid all incorrect, inele-
CANT, improper, slang expressions. Every
effort she puts forth for her child, by a
certain retroactive force comes back upon
herself. Her child, by the very neces
sites Of its being, trains her in self-for.

You must be more active and useful

Something Worth Wishing For

Many years ago a friend came and
told me her troubles. She trusted in
the Saviour, but everything seemed to
hinder her progress in the Divine life.
She had no one in her home to sympa-
thizs with her. Her days were 80 occu-
pied that she could secure little time to
herself Her health caused her much
depression. So that altogether she had
not the peace and comior in religion she
desired. She felt herself to be such "a
mean, shabby sort Of Christian" but
she was not content to remain as she was
II want to be better Christian was
the one longing OF her heart l gave her
what counsel [ could, and 1 trust II was
not altogether in vain.
Here Is a good wish for you, friend, to
cherish through life Il want TO be a
better Christian"
Let this be your great aim and desire.
Whatever changes time may bring you,
# you obtain more grace and get higher
up the heavenly ladder, it will only leave
you more happy and grateful
But how may you be "better Chris
tian ?" First, let me ask you, are you a
Christian at all? Are you in deed and
in truth follower of the Lord Jesus q?
Have you come to His cross and LETT with
Him your burden of sin? Have you
yielded yourself up to Him to be His
alone? Have you received His Holy
Spirit2 Have you utterly renounced
every known sin? Make sure OF this
first. Flee to Christ as the only refuge Of
your soul, and keep back nothing from
His searching eye.
But If it be 80 that you are already
in Christ, how may you be "a better
Christian p
You must be more trustful Christian
Humble trust and dependence form the
very essence of the Christian lite II you
wish to rise, you must more and more
live by faith on the Son of God. You
must trust Him about everything You
must trust Him to keep you from falling
into sin. You must trust Him with
your circumstances, your little wor
rice and crosses. and fears, and VexinI
cares and disappointments. Trust Hin
In the light and in the dark, when yor
feel weak and i'll, as well as when you arr
hearty and strong. Lean upon His arm
Rely upon His help. Rest in HE love
You must be more devout and thank

quent prayer and praise. Shoot up tn,
arrow of hearty petition, or OF a cheer
ful note of gratitude as you 20 abou
your daily work. Redeem a quiet fvD
minutes when you can for communion
with God. Let the words Of Scripture br
oftener In your thoughts Remember tina
apostasy always begins in neglect of Sc
oret devotion. So, too, higher life j.
ever realized by those who constantly
breathe the atmosphere Of prayer anC
praise.
You must be more holy and watch
