 Some years ago there came down a fierce storm on the seacoast, and a yes gel got In the breakers and was going to. pieces They threw up some signal of distyess, and the people on shore saw th6m. They put out in lifeboat They came on, and, they saw the poor sailors, almost exhausted, clinging to . raft; and so afraid were the boatmen that the men would give up before they got to them they gave them three rounds of cheers, and cried: Hold on. therel hold onl We'll save you"
 After awhile the boat came upsl.tl,. man was saved by having the boaInv~,. put In the collar of his coat, and some In one way and some In another, but they all got into the boat. "Now," says the captain, flor the shore. Pull away now, pulll" The people on the land were afraid the lfeboat had gone down. They said: How long the boat stays. Why, 1t must have been swamped, and they have all perished together" And there were men and women on the pier heads and on tho beach wringing their hands, and while they waited and watched they saw something looming up through the mist, and 1t turned out to be the life. boat. ..
 As soon as it came within speaking distance the people on the shore cried out: "Did you save any of themi Did you save any of themi" And as the boat swept through the boiling surf and came to the pier head the captain waved bis hand over the exhausted sailors that lay flat on the bottom of the boat and cried: All savedi Thank Godl All savedl" So may 1t be to- day. The waves of your sin run high, the storm Is on you, but I cheer you with this Gospel hope.
 God grant that within the next ten minutes we may row with you into the harbor of Gods mercy. And when these Christian men gather around to see the result of this service, and the glorifled gathering on the pier heads of heaven to watch and to listen, may we be able to report all savedl Young and old, good and badl All saved Saved for time Saved for eternity.
 "And SO 1t came to pass that they all escaped safe to land"

W1nSteu COnu., June IF, 1851. MrF. B. Catlin, Dear Sir;
 Having ridden the "American Light Ram- bier" for nearly two seasons, have had am pie opportunity to observe all the qualities Of the wheel, both good and bad. In the former the machine abounds, but the latter are as scarce as hens teeth. The fact that l have not expended one cent for repa airs on my ssRambler" since bought it, is in itself good recommend for it to anyone Among the good qualities which fouud in the Rambler" are these ;Lightness, great strength and stability, ease of Steering. especially hands off) and above all, the solid comfort a person can en- joy on the machine owing to the excellent spring frame. There is nothing on the mar ket, in my mind, which can hold a candle to this spring frame for all around, every day riding. It is emphatically the best wheel for ladies, because there is not the slightest jar or vibration felt on the saddle. If was going to buy another wheel, il would be the "Am- erican Light Rambler,n and if another wheel was not to be had nothing would tempt me to mart with the wheel now have.
 Yours respectfully,
 Geo. B woodruff Local Consul LAW. fyou are going to buy a good wheel, buy the best We know we have it, This letter talks that way too. Send for our catalogues. We have wheels at nearly all prices.
