These effects, il less terrible than

Thoughts From Talmage.

A proverb is compact wisdom, knowl-
edge in chunks, a library in sentence,
the electricity of many clouds discharged
in one bolt, river put through mill
race.
That which contains the greatest inn
portance, that which incloses the most
tremendous opportunities, that which
of earthly things is most watched by
other worlds, that which has beating
against its two sides all the eternities,
is the cradle. The grave is nothing in
Importance compared with it, for that
is only gully that we step across in a
second. but the cradle has within it q
new eternity, just born, and never to
cease.
Most OF the people want to be good,
but they do not exactly know how to
make it out. They make enough good
resolutions to lift them into angel
hood. The vast majority of people who
fall are the people of circumstances;
they are captured by ambuscade. If
their temptations would come out in a
regiment and fight them in fair field,
they would 60 out in the strength and
the triumph of David against Goliath.
But they do not see the giant, and they
do not see the regiment. Y. OBJ

TEMPERANCE NOTES.

AIR; "oLp SEXTON"

AIR: old SEXTON.
Alone In his barroom counting his gold
A drink dealer sat- hard hearted and bold;
His days work was done, still he fingered
late,
When goblin came like thing Of fate
Dark demon of bygone days was he,
With soul as black as the midnight sea.
And these were the words from his lips that
fell:
III gather them In to drunkard's HE'LL" etc.
Il gather them In, both men and boys,
While year after year my work destroys
Mems bodies and souls the world around;
Bright homes where joys and love abound
Fair daughters and mothers, father and son.
Their idols shatter them one by one.
License to kill; 1t is known full we'll
Igather them In to drunkard's hell.
Husbands are dying with shrieks and groans,
While wives are praying with pleading tones,
Dear children ore begging bread out In the
cold,
Still rs king rule, and my scepter hold
My victims are many, hell claims them oil;
They come from novels, from palace and
hall,
BY night and day my records tell,
Igather them In to drunkard's hell
II gather them in where they And no peace,
While the pangs Of the deathless soul In
crease"
The goblin paused, when mighty train
OF sinwrecked ghouls, all racked with pain,
With CHASTITY groans came forth and told,
While gnashing their teeth, how the dealer
bold
Led them on through drink their souls to
sell,
And gathered them In to q drunkards hell.

FOR SUNDAY READING.
THANKSGIVING.

Father, whose gracious hand doth hold
All that we prize as good
The wine OF life, its purest gold,
Air, light and daily food.
Whose kindly eye is Watching Ger
Each struggling, stumbling chic,
Who gently beckons to His door.
Whose call IL sweet and mild;
Be Thou so near to us to-day
Our arms can rest In Thine,
Our footsteps feel Thy strength and stay
Thy love around US twine.
We know from Thee all blessings flow
The fields of rlpened grain.
Our blushing orchards bending low,
The herds upon the plain.
The sea, the forest, bending sky.
The sun and stars above,
The pale, sweet moon, SO tender, shy,
Are tokens of Thy love.
The meadows green. the laughing rlll,
The flowers that bloom for all,
Are touches Of Thy wondrous skill,
Our hearts to hold In thrall.
Woo us, dear Father, unto Thee,
Fen by sweet song of bird;
Through tiny flower and towering tree,
Alike Thy voice is heard.
30 many ties of human love
On tender heart strings play,
That very near seems Heaven above
To earth. this autumn day.
We own Thy all-directing hand,
And humbly bow to Thee;
The high and lowly OF the land,
Both own Thy majesty.

The ministry of hope-what could
we do without it? How desolate life
would be! How utterly devoid of bright
ness! How weak we would be likewise,
and how our hands would fall in sheer
despair! "Hope is like an anchor to the
soul" the apostle says, and thank God,
in the hearts of most it is undying.
Adversely can not wholly overcome it.
Defeat can not destroy it. From the
ashes of to-day it will rise again in the
dawning of tomorrow. 1t is well that
it is so, for when hope goes, life soon
follows.-Young Peoples Union.
Somebody asks: do not those
who strive to get what they call their
own rights, generally. by their con-
duct, prevent Christ from getting
IIis?" Christ's first right is to be the
center from which those who are His
shall act and think. That is the very
meaning of the kingdom of Christ
When that ideal is in any measure
realized, ''our own right" begins to
seem a very small matter. At best we
think of them as things we held in
trust for others. and for society at
large.-S. 5. Times

her husband, and had nothing left to
live upon-and had five children!
All the little Harpers were very sorry
when they heard their mothers tale.
"How can we help?" said jamie, the
eldest. "We've no money at ALL"
Mrs. Harper smiled and said: 'No,
you have no money; but if you would
like to give up some of your pleasures
you can earn some"
Elbow, mother?"
"You might give up having sugar in
your tea, for one thing"
"But it's so nasty without, mother"
"Well, perhaps you can think Of
something else. All of you go into the
garden for half an hour, and come and
tell me what you fix upon"
Off ran jamie, and Harry, and Sybil,
and wee Johnnie, hand in hand. and
walked solemnly round the garden for
lust half an hour. When the clock
struck twelve they ran in again, helter-
SHELTER.
s.Well?" said their mother.
jamie spoke:
"We've thought of everything all
round, mother; and, II you please, we
should like to give up our lessons"
But that mother could not agree to-
