Now 1 lay me Down to Sleep.

In the quiet nursery chambers,
Snowy pillows vet impressed,
See the forms OF little children
Kneeling, white-robed for their rest.
All in quiet nursery chambers,
While the dusty shadows creep,
Hear tho voices of the children
Snow lay me down to Sleep"
In the meadow and the mountain
Calmly shine the winter stars,
But across the glisneting lowlands
SIants the moonlight's silver bars
In the silence and the darkness,
Darkness growing stlIl more deep,
Listen to the little children
PRAYING God their souls to keep.
'sIf we die"-so pray the children
And the mothers head drops low
zone from out her fold is sleeping
Deep beneath the winters SNOWY
"Take our SOULS" and pass the easement
Flights CLEAN of crystal light,
Like the trailings of his garments
Walking evermore in white.
Little souls that stand expectant,
Listening at the gates OF Ilfeb
Hearing far away tine murmur
of the tumult and the strife;
We, who fight beneath those banners,
Meeting ranks of foemen there,
Find deeper, broader meaning
In your simple vesper prayer.
When your hand shall grasp this standard
Which, to-day you watch from far;
When your deeds shall shape the conflict
In this universal war,
Pray to Him, the God of battles,
Whose strong eye can never sleep,
In the warning of temptation,
Firm and true your souls to keep.
When the combat ends, and slowly
Clears the smoke from out the skies;
When, far down the purple distance,
All the noise of battle dies;
When the last nights solemn shadows
Settle down OH you and me,
May the love that never flileth
Take our souls eternally.

COUNTERFEIT GEMS. other gem
has been counterfeited with such per-
lection as the emerald, and in fact it
is utterly impossible to distinguish
the artificial from the real gems by
the aid of the eye alone, as even the
little flaws which lull the suspicious
of the experienced, are easily produc-
ed by dextrous blow from the NAL
let of the skilled artisan. Not only
emeralds, but most of the gems and
precious stones are now initiated with
such constant skill as to deceive the
eye, and none but experts are aware
of the extent to which these fictitious
gems are worn in fashionable society,
for oftentimes the wearers themselves
imagine that they possess the real
stones. There is not one in hun
dred jewellers who is acquainted with
the physical properties of the gems,
and very few can distinguish in the
rough the diamond from the white
topaz and the zircone, the emerald
from the tourmaline of similar hue,
the sapphire from the iolite, or the
topaz from the Bohemian yellow
quartz. jewelers. are governed gen
orally by sight, which they believe to
be infallible, while hardness and spe-
cifc gravity are the only sure tests.

Some People.

There are some people who take
great satisfaction in saying unpleas-
ant things. They call this peculiari-
ty speaking their minds" or ''plain-
speaking Sometimes they dignity
it by the name of ''telling the truth. :"
As if truths must be unpleasant in
order to be true Are there no lovely,
charming, gracious truths in the
world? And if there are, why cannot
people diligently tell these, making
others happier by the telling, rather
than hasten to proclaim all the disa-
greeable ones they can discover?
The sum of human misery is al
ways so much greater than the sum
of human happiness that it would APP
pear the plainest duty to add to the
latter all we can, and do what lies in
our power to diminish the former.
Trifies make up this amount, and in
trifies lie the best and most frequent
opportunities. 1t may seem little
thing to tell another what is out Of
place in her appearance or posses
sions; but if information is unneees-
sary and makes her unhappy. it is
clearly an unkind and unfriendly ac-
ton.
Would it not be well to cultivate
the grace of saying agreeable things,
even to the extent of hunting them
up and dragging them to the light
when they happen to be obscure?
This power to say pleasant things
true ones-is an accomplishment
which is generally overlooked or left
as a mere worldly matter to light
minded people. But why it should
be counted more Christian-like to
utter unpleasant truths than pleasant
ones is a somewhat puzzling question.

Punishment is fruit that, unsus-

the pleasure which concealed it.
Cause and effect, means and end,
seed and fruit, cannot be severed,
for the effect already blooms in the

the fruit in the seed.

Life After Forty.

The best part of life is in front of
the man of forty, if he be anything
of man. The work he will do will
be done with the hand of master,
and not of a raw apprentice. The
trained intellect does not see ''men
as trees walking," but sees every
thing clearly and in just measure.
The trained temper does not rush at
work like blind bull at haystack,
but advances with the calm and or
dered pace of conscious power and
deliberate determination. To no
man is the world so new and the fu-
ture so fresh as to him who has spent
the early years of his manhood in
striving to understand the deeper
problems of science and life, who has
made some Roadway toward compre-
hending them. To him the common
est things are rare and wonderful,
both in themselves and as parts of a
beautiful and intelligent whole. Such
a thing as staleness in life and its
duties he can not understand. Knowl-
edge is always opening out before
him in wider expanses and more COM
manding heights. If he be doctor
he finds for example, that the fresh
study Of one of the organs of the hui
man body yields a pleasure and an
enlightenment which it never Yielded
before; he sees the wonders of mi
mute structure with new powers Of
comparison; he marks the relations
that subsist between different organs
with fresh comprehension and de-
light; he sees possibilities of devel-
opment and restoration which never
struck him In his earlier studies; the
various parts of the body, and the
whole of the organism in relation to
its powers, its functions and its en-
vironment, constitute miracle, the
wOnderfulness of which knows no
end. The pleasure of growing knowl
edge and increasing power in its pc
culiar field of work makes every year
of his life happier and more hopeful
than the last.
Everybody knows that at this season the blood
is filed with impurities, the accumulation of months
ofcose confinement in poorly ventilated stores work
shops and tenements. All these impurities and ev-
cry trace of scrofula salt rheum or other diseases

81 can't see why women are SO
busy all the time," said a young far
mer whose mother was chief cook and
baker all the year round for seven or
eight men and boys with inadequate
help, "men can find time to do some
thing besides work, why can't they?"
No; men cannot see where their
living comes from. Cannot take in
how wearing is the constant watchful-
ness and labor that is required to
feed a large family with good fare.
Cannot understand why the spirits
and bodily infrmities set in, when the
outside world is shut off, and hard
grinding at the mill for the benefit of
thoughtless, ravenous men, is about
all there is in life for the weary house
keeper.
"But evil is wrought by want OF thought
AS well as want of heart"
And there are thousands of women
on large farms filling the hard places
assigned them, only keeping their
heads little above the stream, by
the most indomitable pluck and per-
severance. They receive no pity from
anybody, only censure that they do
not do more for the goings on in the
neighborhoods, and be more agreea-
BILE withal. People envy them in
their big houses, their consequential
husbands, and the plenty which sur
rounds them, forgetful that wealth
and contentment do not always dwell
under the same roof, and that some
of our rich women, so called, are the
very poorest in all that goes to make
life a happy foretaste of the heaven
beyond. Exchange.

Before the Judge.

In one of our scriptures a judgment
scene is described. When the Judge
is seated on His throne and before
Him the people are gathered, He
shall say to those upon His right
hand:
"Come, We blessed of My father ;
inherit the kingdom prepared for you
from the foundation of the earth
For / was hungered and We gave Me
meat; thirsty and We gave Me drink !;
naked and ye clothed Me; sick and
in prison and We visited Me-"
How does this apply to the liquor
dealer, manufacturer or seller? Let
the judge ask of the liquor man:
''Did We feed the hungry"
"No. | made the hungry more
hungry and took from him the means
by which he might have lived
''Did We give unto the least of my
brethren drink p
eyes. l gave him drink, but in
stead of refreshing him it turned into
fire within him and made him less a
man. 1t cursed him.
'Did you find him naked and clothe
him."
"No | found him clothed and in
his right mind, and | took from him
his garments and left him naked, in
proverty and distress.
s'Did you find him in prison and
visit him?''
emo. l found him happy IN his
liberty with father, mother, sisters
and brothers, or wife and children,
active and free and honorable in
business, and | lowered him from his
freedom and placed him in prison in
shame and Indebtedness and dis
grace"
With shame-facedness, aud newly
awakened sense of the tremendous
wrong inflicted upon every interest
of life the liquor traffic must plead
guilty to this indictment before the
bar of heaven and earth.
We can make no distinctions of
persons in a business which from
first to last is corrupt and demoraliz
ing, and which by common consent
begets more misfortunes than all
others causes combined. 1t can be
improved only by being abandoned;
and while we wish to respect the
bonds of our common humanity, we
will respect individual men only when
they shall wash their hands of this
tremendous evil and swear by the
sanctities of life that they will no
more of it.-Dr.R e9ford, Of Detroit.

When Abraham Lincoln's neigh
bors heard through the tattling tele-
graph of the great honor conferred
upon their townsman and friend. and
knowing his simple and temperate
habits they sent in baskets of wine
and other delicacies, with which to
treat the expected messengers from
the convention, who had made his
nomination unanimous, he thanked
them kindly, but babe them. take
back their well meant gifts. He had
never kept wine, he would not begin
now. If his guests were thirsty, they
could drink cold water with him.
The friends of temperance find il
exceedingly interesting TO watch the
controversy which is ever going on
between the organs of the beer and
the wine and spirit trade as to the
respective merits of the beverages in
which they are interested. The beer
organs labor to show that beer is a
wholesome and healthful drink, and
that nearly all the crime and disease
which arise from intemperance are
due to the use of spurious liquors.
The wine and spirit organs, on the
other hand. prove cOncluSively that
beer is a health destroying and de-
moralizing beverage, not in any way
to be compared to the juice of the
vine or to the products of the still.
Thus we have BOnfort's aUine and
Spirit Circulars saying in a recent
issue: ''If we were getting a better
beer, there would be room for some
liberation of this government favorit-
ism; but, unhappily, the quality of
American beer is steadily deterora-
ting, and already there are thousands
of well-informed people who scrup-
ulously refuse to touch it on account
of its injurious effects" there can
be no doubt that, on the main ques-
ton, the organs of the beer and the
spirit trade are both right.

A Life Lesson.

have read legend, know not where
The tale alone can now recount
That away in the East, famed and fair,
In ages past marvellous fount.
Where'er drop of water from this fountain fell,
No matter how arid or hard the land,
That drop would into a streamlet swell,
With emerald banks on either hand.
And so the desert, long, brown and bare,
Where this wondrous water was scattered round
Was soon transformed to a landscape rare,
And the sterile sands into fertile ground.
IT'S naught but legend, strange and old,
Yet if on the mythic tale you dwell,
A lesson of value will it unfold
A priceless message of truth will tell.
We make like this fountain our daily life,
And the words UTTER the deeds we do
Shall be springs of good with the power rife
To turn worthless lives into grand and true.
Thus round US ever, in blessing thrown,
Our influence gracious shall God-like make
The lives that only before have known
The way which the weak and wandering take.
