One Year for God,

A recent statistician says that human
life now has an average of only thirty.
two years. From these thirty-two years
you must subtract all the time you take
for sleep and the taking of food and
recreation; that will leave you about
sixteen years. From those sixteen years
you must subtract all the time that you
are necessarily engaged in the earning
of livelihood; that will leave you
about eight years. From those eight
years you must take all the days and
weeks and months-all the length of
time that is passed in childhood and
sickness, leaving you about one year in
which to work for God. Oh, my soul,
wake up. How darest thou sleep in
harvest-time and with SO few hours in
which to reap? So that l state it as a
simple fact that all the time that the
vast majority of people will have for
the exclusive service of God will be less
than one yeal.-Talmage, in N. Y. OBJ

Now, the Europeans employ elephants
in their armies, in the east. The British
soldier elephants in India to-day, how.
ever, are not fighters. They are work.
ers; they bear the baggage, and drag
the heavy cannon.
Notlong ago seventeen raw recruits"
were shipped from Ragon to Madras.
Most of them were newly.captured ami.
mails, purchased for the government Of
India up in the country of British Bur-
NAH. N4 4&
One by one these huge animals were
hoisted from the wharf in great sling,
and lowered into the hold of the ship.
The elephants did not like going to sea
in that way at all. They struggled
nightly. They roared. They grabbed
at the rigging with their trunks as they
were slung up in mid-air. And then,
down in the hold, they were SO furious
that 1t was more difficult to get them
out of the sling than it had been to get
them in.
If any little Burmese boys knew
what was going on. and If they are like
little American boys, am sure they
were there somewhere on the wharf
and am surer still that they shouted
in the excitement well-nigh as loud as
the elephants roared.-C. P. Stuart, in
Little Men and Women.

Lift up thy tired eyes! No cloud 10 spread
Betwixt thee and His Heaven serene

He holds His hand above thy humble head,
Thy happiness is sure.

And bravely bear the cross He lays on

In His eternity.

Hard may be Duty's hand, but 10, 1t leads
Out into perfect Joy, where pain shall

And thou shalt find HIS peace.

SPIRITUAL SHORTCOMINGS.
The Forces That Prevent Us Reaching Our
Own Ideal Of Morality.

The Forces That Prevent Us Reaching Our
Own Ideal of Morality.
One sign of q moral and spiritual
bracing of our energies is a livelier
sense of our failure to come up to our
own ideals. We imagine we can sit
quite still until we find ourselves In the
photographers chair, with an iron brace
at the back of the head, and attention
fixed on the necessity of absolute i'm
movability for minute or two. Then
for the first time we become aware
what surges of force there are moving
through us by reason Of our heart
beats, our respiration and other
organic processes of which we are
quite unconscious at other times. Some
thing like that is the sense we have Of
our spiritual shortcomings the moment
we rouse ourselves from the habit Of
taking our ordinary and feeble measure
of obedience as full compliance with
the Divine law. The surest way of
having this sense Of our poverty walk
ened in us is to come into truer reali-
zation of what God and Christ feel to-
ward us. The vision shames us, and
the very love it wakens in US reveals
our want of any thing like an equal re-
Spouse to theirs. For
Only when We love, we find
How far our hearts remain behind
The love they should bestow.

FOR LITTLE PEOPLE.
WHAT IT. is TO BE MANLY.

oh, boys, you are quick and strong OF limb;
You can run and wrestle and leap and swim.
And delight in your deeds of daring;
But remember. dear boys, In whatever you
do,
IT'S brave to be tender and kind and true
Ills manly to be forbearng.
The manly boy will defend the weak;
He will guard his lips, and be slow to speak
The word that. will hurt another;
In aiding the helpless he'll do his part,
And he'll strive to deserve with royal heart
The tender kiss of his mother.
The tree, we say. Is known by its fruit,
And actions speak when the lips are mute,
And tell with truth unswerving
That you are the manly boys, indeed,
Who use your strength for another's need
And delight in unselfish serving.

RAMS HORN WISDOM.

No man who thinks wrong can live
right.
Infidelity can not point to any full
filed prophecies.
God will not go where His humblest
child is not welcome.
A holy life is the best answer that
can be made to infidelity.
Prove that God can not suffer, and
you prove that He is not love.
Your can not pray for yourself and
leave the people you don't like out.
Religion is not something you can
take home and keep tor your own use.
This life will mean more when we
realize that it is the pathway to the
next.
The hardest kind OF repentance to
bring about is repentance for popular
sins.
This world is too small to'afford a
place of safety to the man who dis
obeys God. .,. .5 a.rg
The more faith men have in God,
the more faith they will have in one
another. .-rr.. ~ -s.
No man can get any nearer to God
than he is willing to try to bring every
body else. -.t 81,
No man can keep hold of the hand Of
God while he steps on the rights Of
some other man.
To persuade one soul to lead right
eous life is to make this world better
than you found it.
God has never been in hurry to have
a big church, but He has always wanted
to have q clean one.
1t may sometimes appear very hard &c
have to do Gods will, but we will fint
it q great deal harder not to do it

story Of an Heroic Little Woman and Her
Answered Prayers.

story Of an Heroic Little Woman and Her
Answered Prayers.
Late in December little schooner,
laden with pine lumber, set sail from a
port in Mississippi bound to Philadel-
phia.
The crew consisted of the captain,
mate and four seamen. The only pas
senger was the captains wife, a young
girl, recently married. Those who
know her state that she was "a little,
insignificant. uneducated woman, not
noted for beauty or cleverness, but
very fond of her husband and good
Christian"
On leaving the gulf of Mexico and
reaching the open sea, the schooner en-
countered several storms, the second
of which forced open her seams. A
leak followed. The pumps were set to
work, but the water entered the hold
faster than it could be pumped out.
The cargo was then thrown overheard.
One storm followed another. The
masts were swept away. The pumps
were worked day and night, and bare
ly succeeded in keeeAg the shattered
hull afioat.
1t was now that the captains little
wife took her turn with the crew, work.
ing as hard as any man, singing and
Joking to keep up their hearts when
they saw no chance to escape.
On the eighth day the little vessel ran
into heavy gale of sleet and snow.
Her decks were sheeted with ice, and
the wet clothing of the crew was frozen
to their bodies. The captain and one Of
the seamen fell i'll, and the sufferings
of the others were almost intolerable
The captains wife nursed the sick men
She prepared the food, and even tool
her turn at the pumps. Her courage
and hope never failed.
"You will reach home If you keep W
courage and trust in God" she told

them Thousand times The men were
ashamed to give up while this little
woman held out.
On the fourteenth day heavy sea
washed away her last barrel of meat.
The wet, moldy bread was soon ex.
hausted, and then the agonies of stafva-
ton began.
The little woman was so weak that
she sometimes fell like one dead on the
deck But her courage rose with the
desperate need. She went from one
man to another, cheerful and Laughing,
talking to each of his home, his wife
and children, praying aloud with such
q happy fervor of faith that the super
stitious sailors were both awed and
made hopeful.
"She talked with Cod" one of them
said. "She talked with God all the
time. l knowed He was beside her, and
heard her."
Days of hot sunshine followed, in
which the horrors of famine and thirst
increased. Ship after ship passed along
the horizon, without seeing the little
hulk to which these poor wretches
chung.
But at last steamship bore down on
them. They were taken on board aud
tenderely cared for; they were carried
to foreign port and then sent back to
their homes.
The captains wife, when her work
was done, sank into a stupor and lay
near death for many days.
This record of an heroic woman is
taken almost literally from the reports
of the men whose lives she had helped
to save.
Many women will read it, who, like
her, are mot noted for beauty, talent
or knowledge" 1t will probably never
be their lot to endure suffering from
storm or hunger or thirst, but each one,
however insignificant, will have com
panions in her voyage through life
whom she can save from misery and
crime by her cheerful courage and faith
There are shipwrecks more to b.
dreaded than any on the high seas, and
when such disaster overtakes man
no surer help can reach him than tina
of a sister, wife or a mother who love-
him, who hopes for him, and who stalks
with God."-Youth's Companion.

MAKING GREAT THINGS. PLAIN.

Make Men Believe in the Possibility of
Realizing Great Things for Themselves.
There is truth of wide application
in the well-known phrase that "Chris-
tians are the worlds Bible" Men and
women do not, as rule, concern them
selves with distractions; they need to
have general truths translated into
concrete language. When they think
of courage they do not think of an alb
stract quality, but OF Nelson and
Drake; when they think Of patriotism
they remember Washington and Lin
coin; when they think of self-sacrifice
and moral heroism they recall Paul
and Luther. One of the great services
which noble men and women render
to their kind is this constant
translation of the highest and
noblest qualities into plain hui
man speech, the constant turning Of
ideals into realities. At heart all men
and women who are not corrupt, and
many who are corrupt, yearn after
these better things and believe in them,
but are paralyzed by the belief that
these things are beyond their reach.
Noble ideals and purposes shine over
most lives like the stars, and are as in
accessible to the thought of those that
look at them. Now, the way to make
men believe in the possibility Of real
izing these high things for themselves
is to translate these Qualities and
achievements by our own lives into the
plainest and most familiar speech. The
woman in the household whose sacrifice
and service are continuous sooner or
later comes to stand, in the minds of
all who know her, for these qualities;
unconsciously she is forever teaching
and making real great human
possibilities. The man of the commu-
nifty whose action is always character
lied by honesty and truth is at last
identified with integrity, and is, to the
whole community, plain translation,
in common speech, of one of the funda-
mental virtues of humanity. 1t was
said of one of the greatest English law.
yers and judges that he had so i'm.
pressed the minds of his countrymer
that they had come to identify him
with the very figure of Justice itself
This kind of Identification with some
great and noble quality, with some rare
and precious achievement, is far more
common than we sometimes think; it il
one of the services which w
can all render to our fellows

BIG BRITISH SOLDIERS.
How Elephants Are Used as Warriors II

How Elephants Are Used as Warriors in
FsII the East Indian Army. 1p
The very biggest of the British SOL
diers are in the East Indian army. They
are eight or ten feet tall They weigh
five or six tons apiece. These giant SOL
diers are not men, however. They go
on four feet instead of two. In fact,
they are elephants. a 'rcs
Strange to say, the first elephants
ever seen by Europeans, centuries ago,
were soldiers, too. The Europeans had
to fight them, as well as men, in the
great wars of the east. sf
In those days, elephants went into
battle clad in armor. Sometimes they
bore towers on their backs, filled with
warriors. Some of those old soldier
elephants were trained to cut and
thrust with huge scimetars, which they
carried with their trunks. An elephan,
can lift half a ton with his trunk.
Think, then, what a tremendous weapon
such swordsman could swing.

An English View Of the Effects of Protec-

ton.
There is this difference between an
Englishman and his servant on the
American press-an Englishman will
sometimes stop lying. And English
newspapers are beginning to tell the
truth about the effects Of our late fscai
LEGISLATION. One of these commences an
article as follows:
There are signs Of the Mckinley tariff pro-
ducing the effect its promoters designed and
anticipated is, the transfer Of manufao'
turing industries from foreign countries to the
United States. Rhode Island 10 likely to be.
come the site Of great worsted msnufactory
promoted by powerful interests In England and
on the continent. Germany is moving In that.
direction, for besides other trades she hnds
her cutlery trade hit hard, which is true also OF
Shefaeld. The cutlers Of Solingen think seri.
ously of transferring their works and many
opsratiyes have emigrated in advance Of their
employers.
After a sneer at the quality OF the
German cutlery-the English have al
ways maintained that their poor bayo-
nets and swords were from Solingen-
and mentioning the German habit OF
forging marks on their cutlery, the
paper continues: J
There are signs elsewhere as well Of trans
fers of factories to Americas movement that
would increase In magnitude II confidence were
felt in tho permanence Of any fiscal policy
adopted in the United States, The speech OF
the$ president at Galveston shows that the
leader OF the republican party will only modify
the protection policy in the line Of reel procity
as laid down by Mr. Blaine.
This is undoubtedly true, and II Pres
ident Harrison had stated distinctly
after the November elections that no
legislation in the interest OF British
capitalists could become law during
his administration, more transfers OF
factories to this country would have
been chronicled, and by SO much would
there be less corruption in our next
general election; for even British
manufacturer, with his mill in this
country, will not be found contributing
to reform. 5r.f
