RELIGIOUS READING.

a THOUGHT FROM THE FATHERS.
See how yon little lark Is borne
With music up to heaven,
To bask in sunlight ere the morn
To wales beneath is given.
That bird salvations sign hath made
By stretching forth Its wings;
The cross upon his back is laid,
And loi he scars and sings.
Take of the fardel til 1t he bears,
He falleth in his flight;
The cross is in the wings he wears;
Heproves the burden light.
SO Christ hath laid His cross on me;
1t wings me to the sky,
And day by day, though sore it be,
By that dear cross live ].
1t beareth those by whom tits borne
And by its weight We rise;
Who casts it down, he sinks forlorn;
Who takes it up, he flies
Easy the yoke and light the load,
Indeed, my spirit sings;
To him that pants for Gods abode
His cross shall prove his wings.

The great need, after all, is men more than
money. Men of God, who count not their
lives dear unto them. Men like Frederick
Stanley Arnott, a young Scoichman who
went to Africa, ami starting from the south,
marched right up through the heart of that
continent Men like the immortal David
Livingstone, who died praying for Africa.
They buried him with many fearful eulogieS
in We minister Abbey, but if he could leap
into life again he would say: Follow where
my heart lies out yonder in Africa Obey
your Lords command: Go We into all the
world, and preach the gospel to every erea-
ture.' o-E0dngeliSiic Work.

Strongest Nan in the World.

Matt Kramer, of Putnam County, W.
Va, who is supposed by men who know
him to be the strongest man in the civ
ilized world, is attracting attention far
and near. One of his recent feats, in
which almost superhuman strength is
called into action, wss witnessed only a
few days ago by a number of the best
citizens. He raised, apparently with the
greatest ease, a huge pedestal weighing
1900 pounds, and held it aloft above his
head for several seconds. Mr.. Kramer is
over six feetin height and tips the beam at
2S5 pounds.

Self-Examination.

Occasional retirement, self-inquiry,
meditation, and secret communion
with God are absolutely essential to
spiritual health. The man who neg
lects them is in great danger of a fall.
To be always preaching, teaching,
speaking, and working public works
is unquestionably a sign of zeal not
according to knowledge. 1t often
leads to untoward consequences. We
must take time for sitting down and
calmly looking within, and examin-
ing how matters stand between our
soul and Christ. The omission of this
practice is the true account of many a
back-sliding which shocks the Church
and gives occasion to the world to
blaspheme. Many could say in the
words of the Canticles: "They made
me keeper of the vineyards, but my
own vineyard have l not kept"
