THEIR LIGHT DID NOT SHINE.

IA professor of religion say you? But
have known her these two years, and she
never once mentioned the subject in my
presence" So said lady day or two sincs
who was herself a professor. 1t brought to
mind the words of Jesus to his disciples,
Let your light shine" Here are two pro-
Tossed followers of Christ, neighbors for two
years, and conversiug often with each ether,
without either discovering that the other
was prosessed Christian. And what was
the reason? Their light did not shine. In.
stead of putting it upon candlestick, it had
been hid under bushel. How many pleas
ant and profitable hours would those two
years have afforded, had these two individ-
uals spoken often to each other OF Gods
mercies! How much more brightly would
have glowed the fame of Christian love in
their hearts! How much more strength
might they have acquired to resist the
adYersaryl
Their light did not shine. What opportu-
mites for doing good passed away in those
two years! How many happy influences
might they have exerted upon those around
them which were not improved! What an
opportunity was there for the powers OF
darkness to work! How many tares the ene-
my must have sowed during that long night
Of two years.
Their light did not shine. He who pur-
chased them with his own precious blood
commanded them to let it shine. 1t was q
duty they owed to Him, their Saviour and
Redeemer, to let it shine. 1t was duty, for
the neglect Of which they will have to give
an account in the day of judgment In con-
tact with one another for two whole years,
and not know that each other were profes-
sors of religionl How little did they feel for
temporal and eternal welfare Of each others
souls Waterman.

GOSPEL ASSURANCE.

Forty. two times the Creek words trans.
lated know arc found in the first epistle of
John, showing the earnest desire Of the Holy
Ghost to lead tho believer out Of the cold and
dark region of doubt and dread into the
liberty of tho children Of God. Behold"
Clnow or see) ''what manner Of love the
Father hath bestowed upon us, that we
should be called the sons Of God; therefore,
the world knoweth us not, because it knew
Him not. Beloved, now are we the sons OF
God; and it doth not yet appear what we
shall be: but We know that when He shall
appaar we shall be like him. for we shall see
Him as He is. And every man that hath
this hope IN Him purlneth nimSelf, even as
He is pure"
With such an assurance and such hope,
it is not strange that the wor Is Joy ana re-
joice shine like bright and beautiful stars III
the four gospels in the acts OF the apostles,
in tho various epistles, and even IN the
book of Revelation He does not wish His
children TO be gloomy, but happy, happy as
tine day is long happy in tho night OF affilc-
tion hanring His word, "Casting oil your
care upon Him, for He careth for you
1t is obvious, then, that the hllinS mist OF
uncertainty, which hangs about many pro
fessed Christians in these days, does NOT
arise from the Word of God. IL comes
rather from false teaching, that has accus-
a vain search for something that deserves
heaven instead of 10 king simply and singly
to Christ as all our salvation and all our de-
sire. They have been taught that it is pre-
sumption to believe they are saved without
any Righteousness Of their own, and without
any ecclesiastical ordinances; and conse-
quently as they have no real JOY in their
thoughts Of God and eternity, and the heart
Graves happiness. they answer the descrip-
tion given Of religion at the close OF tho
'lovers of pleasures more than lovers OF
God: having form of Goodness, but deny
ing the power thereof"
But let us as sintelligent believers turn away
from this formality and worldlinesS and dis
content and catch the happy strain of true
Christian experience as found in Peter is,
"Whom having not seen, yet, believing, ye
rejoice with joy unsneakabls and full Of
glory; receiving the end of your faith, even
the salvation Of your souls"

The Range of the Turkey.

In discussion as to the northern range
of the wild turkey, it is asserted that in
the old times they were not met with
north of Hampden County in Massachu-
setts. Against this writer the New York
Sun has the testimony of the late Gen.
John A. Dix, who was born in New Hamp-
shire, and as a boy recollected seeing
many focks of that bird there. he told
a story of certain man in his town
known as Turkey Bill. He was noted
trapper of wild turkeys. These he cap
tured in small log house, fitted with a
door, sprung by the hunter in conceal.
ment. On a certain occasion Turkey
Bill, having located flock of twenty
birds, set his trap. He scattered trail
of corn leading to its entrance. The
turkeys approached. One entered, then
a second, and so on until nineteen OF
them were in the structure. The twen-
tieth fingered, 10th to enter. Turkey
Bill patiently waited for him to join the
others. He was sure of nineteen, but he
wanted them all. Soon the nineteenth
bird emerged from the trap, then the
eighteenth, and so on until but one're-
mained within. Then Turkey Bill sprane
the door. He was at one time sure Of
nineteen, but in his greed he overreached
himself, and in the end secured but one.
Gen. Dix was disposed to apply the
moral of this story to the methods OF
certain contemporaneous statesmen.

HAD AN EYE ON HIM.

Pm watching him closely" So young
Brown went in and out Of the store and up
and down the street. He mixed with his as
sociates and all the time Mr.. Todd had an
eye on him. He watched how the young
man bore the sneer Of being zone Of the
saints" if he stood up nlanfully for his new
Master and was not afraid TO show his colors.
Although Mr.. Todd took rides, went to
church, or did what he pleased on Sunday,
he was very glad to seq that Brown rested on
the Sabbath day and hallowed it. Though
the Wednesday evening bell never
drew the merchant to the prayer
meeting, he watched to see IL Brown
passed by. Sometimes he said: "Where
are you going, BrownS' and always rec lived
Browns father and his teacher were both
questioned as to how the lad was getting on.
For year or more Todd's eyes were on
Brown. Then he said to himself: Hell do.
Hc is q real Christian. can trust him. l
can afford to pay him. He shall have
good place in my store" Thus young
Christian, others watch to see if you are
true; if you'll do for places of trust The
world has its cold, calculating eye on you, to
see if your religion is real, or if you are just
just ready to turn back. The Masters low
ing eye is on you also. He sees not the mis-
steps alone, but also the earnest wish to
PLEASE him. He, too. has places Of trust
The work is pleasant and the pay good.
These places may be for you when, through
his strength, you have proved yourself true.
Fix your eye on him and he will keep you in
the eway.-Conyegationalist.

DEATH by the Guillotine.

A correspondent, writing from France.
SAYS: Two recent executions have given
rise to considerable amount of discus
sion as to the moral effect of the ''guillo-
tineY on the criminal classes. 1t is quite
possible that President Carnot's severity
in according few reprieTes has had de:
terrent effect on the cutthroats, who had
learned to expect so much from the mis-
placed clemency of the last President.
This would seem to be borne out by the
observations of the Able Faure, chaplain
of La Roquette prison, who has just com
municated report on his ministratlons
to the Government. The Able believes
that no other punishment which may be
substituted for execution by the guillo'
tine will have so fear producing an effect
as the terrible instrument of justice at the
service of the public headsman.
In his report the Able draws realistic
picture of the suspense in which the
doomed murderer lives from day to day:
until he hears either his summons to the
scaffold or the news of a reprieve.
Nearly all the murderers seek consolation
more or less in religion, according to the
degree of education which they have re-
ceived, and none of them give up the
hope of reprieve until the last moment.
The condemned criminals rarely or never
sleep when they know that their time is
approaching, or if they do it is on ly to
doze off into horrible dream, from
which they jump up all Ivid with fear
and dread. Sleeping or waking the
"guillotine," the lunette, the headsman
and his assistants are forever present to
their imaginations. Out of eleven per-
sons whom the Able attended during
his six years of Office only three were
really asleep when their summons came.

TEMPERANCE.
NEVER GIVE UPl

NEVER GIVE UPl
Oh, mortal, impatient,
The world was not made in day.
Quit incoming and signing,
And still keep on trying;
The prize you may lose through delay
You had the bright sunlight
70 comfort and cheer you,
With scarcely thorn for your feet.
Now clouds make it dreary,
You quickly grow weary,
And talk of ill-luck and defeat.
I fear that temptation
And evil companions
Have led you your pledge to ignore.
You fret and you grumble,
You trip and you stumble,
And fail to keep pace any more.
Look up, my poor brother,
And put your foot forward,
And let your soul out in endeavor.
If right seed you're sowing,
In knowledge you're growing,
And will keep on growing forever.
All! now we see through it
You give us the reason
Why happiness comes not your way.
No wonder you grumble,
No wonder you stumble;
You drink Of the wine-cup each day.
Spend not your time idly
With evil companions;
Oft wanting for dollar and dime.
The happiest mortal
That enters heavens portal
Is he who hath best spent his time.

How the Pope Lives.

A correspondent from the Eternal City
gives the following interesting account
of the daily life of Pope Leo:
"Every morning before addressing
himself to the direction of the affairs Of
this planet the Pope offers the sacrifice OF:
the mass and then attends a second mass,
at which his chaplain is the celebrant-
With mind thus attuned to divine things
the Pope then begins his working 4ay.
A single glass of coffee, tea or milksnf-s
fees to break his fast. After going
through his papers he begins to receive
about 9. From that hour till / in the
afternoon the throng of visitors never
slackens. 3
"Secretaries, ambassadors, cardnsls
from the congregation, distinguished
strangers, bishops from ~afaf have audi
ence in turn. There are 1900 bishops
in the Catholic Church, and with all of
them the Pope is in more or less constant
personal relations.
"After four or five hours spent in this
way he returns to his papers and his
books until 8, when he dimes. His meal
is frugal; little soup, two courses of meat,
with vegetables, and dessert of fruit, with
one glass of strong wine, suffice his wants.
After dinner he goes out for drive or
walk IN the gardens of the Vatican. In
the evening he resumes his papers, and
at night, between 9 and 10, all the men,
bers in the papel household assemble for
the rosary, after which they retire to rest.
But long after that hour the cardinal
state secretary, Rampolia, or the unde'y
state secretary, Mocenni, is often sum-
moned to the papal apartments, where,
by the light of the midnight lamp, Leo
watches and thinks and prays for the well
fare of the church.

DR. Munro Gibson, preaching in st. Johns
Wood Church recently, from the text
"Take heed how ys hear" remarked that
nowadays people read ten times moro than
they listened. Even Christian people some
times exercised no particular care as to
what they read or avoided. There were
young ladies in London who would not asso-
ciate with vulgar people but who would
neverth less take some sensational novel
to their private rooms ani allow its author
to pour VIII he liked of his worthless or
injurious stuff int, their minds, and allow
him to talk to them for hours at time.
Let them avoid as a plague a.! those books
and pap,rs which minister to the depraved
taste and pander to the baser passions.

RELIGIOUS READING.
THE WINNING SIDE.

THE WINNING SIDE
Workman of God, o lose not heart,
But learn what God is like;
And in the darkest battlefield
Thou shalt know where to strike.
Thrice blest is he to whom is given
The instincts that can tell
That God is on the field when He
Is most invisible.
Blest too is he who can divine
Where real light doth lie,
And dares to take the side that seems
Wrong to mans blindfold eye.
Then learn to scorn the praise of men,
And learn to love with God;
For Jesus won the world through shame
And beckons thee His road.
For right is right, and God is God,
And right the day must win;
To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falier would be sin.

CIDER A CAUSE OF TYPHOID FEVER.

A physician of Havre DR.. Olivier, charges
cider with being one of the agents for the
transmission of typhoid fever. He found the
bacili of that disease ip the water Of a pond
into which drained the water Of O farm
where he had number of typhoid fever
cases, and he discovered that the water Of
the pond was used on the farm in the manu-
facture of cider. This led him to investigate
whether the fermentation of cider killed the
bacilh or not or attenuated their vitality.
The result of his experiments was to con-
vince him that the alcoholic fermentation Of
apple juice in no way modified the vitality
and properties Of this bacilli. This fact is Of
much Importance, for during the past two
years typhoid fever has been prevalent in an
epidemic form all over Normandy, in popu-
lation of peasants who drink almost no wa
ter and who make cider their beverage al
most exclusively Of all other. It is very
prevalent idea among these same peas
ants that pond water is the best with which
to maker cider, and there is hardly ono Of
them who does not use that kind Of water in
preference to all others. As the process Of
fermentation does not destroy the typhoid
fever germs it contains it is easy to under
stand how the cider contributes to the prop
agation Of the disease

In view of the immense amount of liquor
consumed in the United States, it is difficult
to believe that the temperance cause is max
ing much progress, but it is a fact that excess
in drinking was never so disreputable as it is
to-day. Sef-respecting men shun the socie-
ty of the immoderate drinker more than ever
before. They don't like to be seen in his
company. A young man who is known to
drink even moderately is distrusted by his
employers, and his standing in society suf-
fers decline. Society frowns more and
more upon the drinking habit, and tippling
as fashionable accomplishment is on che de-
cline. Liquor is not openly presented to
guests at private houses as it was twenty-five
years ago. An invitation from your enter
tainer to stake suthin'" is apt to be
communicated by whisper and wink, and
he leads you to some secluded cupboard.
He is ashamed to mention whisky in the
presence of the ladies and children. There is
much talk outside Of clubs about, the dissipa-
tion indulged in there, but it is greatly exag-
gerated. E4cesses are frowned upon in all
reputable clubs When drunkenness becomes
Thoroughly unpopular, it will be confined to
the dissoiute alone.---Ieras StfttnQS.

STUNTED BY LIQUOR.

"When dog fanciers," says DR.. James Ross,
'wish to produce small pet dog the animal
is given a certain amount of gin daily from
birth until the period of growth is past; this
proceeding is effectual in producing dog
much smaller than the parents or the other
dogs of the same litter" DR.. Ross was told
by a medical man that he had kept prema-
weeks by feeding it whisky toddy. Seven
years later the child was q puny little idiot.
