ever made np your mind by what name you will call Christ when you meet Him in Heaven You know He has many names. Will you call Him Jesus, or the Anointed One, or the Messiah, or will you take some of tbe symbolical names which on earth you learned from your Bible? Wander ing some day in the garden of God on high, the place a-bloom with eternal springtide, infinite luxuriance of rose, and lily, and amaranth, you may look up into His face and say: My Lord. thou art the rose of sharon and the lily of the valley" Some day, as a soul comes up from earth to take it's place in the Armament and shine as star for ever and ever, and the luster of a useful life shall beam forth tremulous and beautiful, you may look up into the face of Christ and say: My Lord, thou art a brighter star the morning star-a star forever"
 Wandering some day amid the fount- aims of life that toss in the sunlight and fall in crash of pearl and amethyst in golden and crystalline urn, and you wander up the round-banked river to where 1t first tingles its silver on the rock, and out of the chalices of love you drink to honor and everlasting joy, you may look up into the face of Christ and say; My Lord, thou art the fountain of living water" Some day, wandering amid the lambs and sheep in the Heavenly pastures, feeding by the rock. rejoicing In the presence of Him who broughtyou out of the wolhsh wilderness to the sheepfold above, you may look up into His loving and watchful eye and say: My Lord, Thou art the shepherd of tho everlasting hiils.r fint there is another name you may select l will imagine that Heaven isdone.

To the repenting soul, to the exhaust ed invalid, to the Sunday-school girl, to the snow-white octogenarian, 1t Is beau tiful. The old man comes in from a long walk, and tremblingly opens the loor, and hangs his hat on the old nail, and sets his cane in the usual corner, and lies down on couch, and says to his children and grandchildren: My Hears, am going to leave you" They say: Why, where are you going, grand father?" T am going to Jesus" And so the old man faints away into Heaven. The little child comes in from play and throws herself on your lap, and says: 'sMapma, I am so sick, l am so sick. :" And you put her to bed, and the fever is worse and worse, until in some mid night she looks up into your face and says: Mamma, kiss me goodbye, l am going away from you" And you say: My dear, where are you going to2'' And she says: T am going to Jesus" !" And the red cheek which you thought was the mark of the fever only turns out to be the carnaaon bloom of Heav- enl Oh, yes; it is sweet name spoken by the lips of childhood, spoken by the 0lS man.

A BOY will Show his Bent.

Schoolmasters OF experience could, no
doubt, tell of numerous cases of boys
who have been distinguished at school
for nothing at all, except possibly gen
eral all round laziness, and who yet de-
veloped in later life into successful war;
riors, lawyers, clergymen, or authors.
The usual rule, however, seems to be that,
if boy is going to turn into great man,
he shows some signs of his future in his
early career. tits not necessary for these
indications to be intellectual; youth en-
dowed with the exceptional physical
vigor which is destined to carry him to
the front when he attains mans estate

What Good Butter Is.

The scale for judging butter has
changed. 1t has been often said that
perfect butter is that which, made and
put down today, will be just as good next
June as it is now; but it is not the state
ment that has to be given at the present
time. To my mind, perfect butter is
that which perfectly suits the taste of
the person or customer for which it is
made and will draw out of his pocket
book the largest amount of cash for it.
do not think we can make butter on
any other basis.

Where India ink comes from.

India ink is made from burnt camphor
and gum. The Chinese and japanese
are the only manufacturers of this ink.
The process is tedious one and requires
great skill: The finer grades of India
INK are delicately scented with altar of
roses, and one stick about three inches
long may cost four or 1--WE dollars. Age
improves the ink. - ~ y
