1 boat. In 1883 the Isabella came ashore of Hastings, England. The air was filled with sounds-the hoarse sea trumpet, tine crash of the axes and the believing of the tornado A boat from the shore came under the stern of the disabled vessel. There were women and children on board
 that vessel. Some of the sailors jumped into the small boat and said: "Now give
 us the children" father who stood on deck took his first born and threw him to the boat The sailors caught him safely, and the next and the next, to the last. Still the sea rocking, the storm bowling.
 "NOw," said the sailors, 'now the moth- er;" and she leaped, and was saved. The boat went to the shore; but before 1t got to the shore the landsmen were so lmpa- tient to help the suffering people that they waded clear down into the surf with blankets and garments, ahA promises of help and succor.
 So there are whole families here who are going to be saved, and saved alto- gether. Give us that child for Christ, that other, that other. Give us the mother, give us the father, the whole family. They must all come in. All Heaven wades in to help tou. l claim
 this whole audience for God. pick not out one man here nor ono man there; 1 claim you all. There are some of you who. thirty years ago, weIS conseerated to Christ by your parents in baptism
 Certainly I am not stepping over the right bound when l claim you for Jesus. Then there arc many here who have been seeking God for good while, end am not right in claiming you for Jesls' Then there are some here who have been further away, and you drink, and you swear, and you bring up your families without any God to take care of them when you are dead. And I claim you, my brother, l claim all of you. You will have to pray sometime; wEy not begin now, while all the ripe and purple clus- ter or Divine promise bend over into your cup rather than postpone your prayer until your chance is past, and the night drops, and the sea washes you out, and the appalling fact shall be an- nounced that notwithstanding all your magnificent opportunities you have be- come a castaway.

NOBLE SELF-SACRlFlCE.
No One Is So Helpless But That He Ca
 Not Give Help.

~
 Not Give Help.
 God has made men at once ike and un- like so that they may sympathize with each other in all their likenesses and also have thorough helpfulness to each other in all their difficulties Man can sympa- thize with man far more than he can sympathize with the brute, because man is much moro like man than he is like the brute No one of us is so helpless but that he can not give help; no one so rich in helpfulness but that he needs help. We are thus taught at once the lesson Of self contentment and of self-sacrihce; to be contented in ourselves, yet to sacrifice our selves for others Selt-sacrihce is the law Of fife, selishness ia the law of death. We are to gain much, but we are to gain much for the sake of giving much; we arc to gain more for the sake of giving most The life that is centered in itself, that builds up an establishment for it's own glory, is like the sun holding it's own light and heat It destroys itself The life that is lived out of itself, and for others, in brotherly kindness and charity, becomes great and Is crowned with love and peace. The world stands as a giant with his finger pointing toward piece of gold We have no fault to find with the world thus stand, ing and pointing The question is why does the modern world point toward a piece of gold? We may say that The vain man points toward it saying, l will wear it. the generous man points toward 1t saving, 1 will share it; the miser pointt toward it saying, l will spare it; the prac, tical man points toward it saying, l wit spend it; the usurer points to 1t and says, l will lend it; the fool points to 1t saying, will spend it; the gambler points toward it saying, I will lose 1t; the wise man rointa to it saying, will use itn It Is the use of gold and every treasure in brotheriy kindness and charity. in noble self-sacri- fec. that enriches character.

 Reported Compromise and Alliance Be- tween the Tories and Parneilites = Panic Among the Liberals.
 LONDON Aug. 3I.--Mr. Balfour's promise to bring in bill for the endowment Of an Irish Catholic university coupled with Mr Parnelps immediate acceptance of the proposal, creates almost panic among the Liberal leaders, who see that this new departure of the Tory Government mean the disruption of their party. It is cer- tain that Mr. Parneli has reached some sort of an understanding with Lord Salis- bury's Government and it is even stated that the Parnellites will support the Tory Premier 1t the next election in return for concessions which will practically amount to home rule and a land law which will quite efreciually throw the landlords in Ireland overboard
 This change of front on the part of Lord Salisbury Is certain to lose him the sup port of tho Ulster members, but he will probably carry with him ali but very few of the Conservative members and the Unionists. while the addition to his fosce of the solid Parnellite con tingent ani Of such Liberals as care more for home rule than for the means of attaining it will un- doubtedly increase his voting strength materially, no withstanding the def'c ion of the Protestant Irishmen and few anti Catholic Tories.
 All of the details of the agreement en- tered into between Mir Parnell and those whom he has of late SO bitterly opposed are not as yet understood and as result there is no end of speculation.
 The Liberal leaders held a meeting, at which Sir William Vernon Harcourt made q speech congratulating the Liberal party upon having successfully proselyted the Tory Government Few of his associates, however shared Sir Williams cheerful ness and their joy at finding their own principles now supported by the Tories is not little tempered by the certainty that this support wisl keep the Tories in power indefinitely and thems Ives out.

How He Got Rid of Hated Instrument
 of Torture.
 Some twenty years back we had poodle white, with one black ear. After the manner of his race. he was never quite happy unless he carried something in his mouth. He was intelligent and teachable to the last degree. The great defeot in his character was the impossibtlity of distin- gushing neuBa from httimL Any thing he could get hold of he seemed to think, &C., cording to his dogged ethics to be fairly his own. On one occasion he entered tha room of one of the maid servants and stOkl her loaf of bread carefully shutting tn door after him with his feet, the latter part being a feat I had taught him The woman Irish was scared, and thought that the dog was the devil incarnate. Tho necessity of discipline on tho one hand and of occupation on the other induced me one day to enter a saddle,'s shop, situated in q straight street about half mile from our house, and buy hip. Shortly aftef my return home he committed some aos of petty larceny, so ga him a beating with the whip he had carried home. Going for a walk next day the dog as usual, accom- panied me and was intrusted with tho whip to carry, Directly We got outside the door he started of at his best pace straight down the street, paying no attention what ever to my repeated call He entered the ssddler's shop and deposited the whip on the floor When I arrived tho saddier showed me the whip lying exactly where Che dog had deposited 1t -Spectator.
