story about il giant. 49,,
"Would you like 20 hear it mamma"
asked she.
"Well, them" she continued. "oncc
there was great big ugly giant, and
he was very fond OF eating little girls.
One day as he was walking along
through the woods, be met two little
girlS-one very good little girl, ana
one very naughty one. .,
"First he took II bite out of the good
little girl, and he made up a horrld
face. and said she tasted awful nasty !;
then he took 4 taste of the bad little
girl, and he smacked his lips and said
She tasted dreadful nice, 'caus you see,
mamma, she had eaten nuts ana
raisins and candy when her mother
told her not to, and that made her
taste sweet Then the old giant SAID,

SUNDAY PAPER AND RELlGIoN.-Sen
timrnt i'm favor Of decent respect for
the Sabbath is growing. The Demo
crnt and Chronicle, of Rochester, \.
y, on May 10, announced that its
Sunday edition would be discontinued
on July 10 and thereafter in Difference
to public sentiment which requires a
more strlci observance Of the Sabbath
so far as we know this is the first secu'
lar paper to take this step. The tide
has been altogether in the other direc
ton !or twenty-five years. But public
sentiment will, we hope, soon require
business men of all classes to pay re-
gard to the day Of rest. Reasons why
they should do this are abundant.

Sentiments Oh Various Subjects.
BY JOHN lIEAIM ENWAS.

Prayer will convert every person in
the whole world. "How can it:'
When every person pcnitcntly prays
"God be merciful To me Il sinner.'
Who ever knew an intidel or skep-
tic in his protessed sincerity of opin-
ion to he man of meek, humble
prayer
We should remember, not only,
that whosnever doth not receive the
kingdom of God as little child can
not enter therein, but, also that he
cannot make progress in the Christian
life, unless he lives. as Il Christian,
"like little child
The Psalmist says: II thought on
my ways and turned my feet unto
thy testimonies"-He thought not on
his right ways, but on his wrong
ways, and forsook them by walking
in the ways of Righteousness.
Fervent and persevcring prayer is
useless, and more than useless, it is
sinful, if it is not offered in al humble
spirit.
Eternity! The true value of earthly
things The Importance Of heavenly
things The shortness and uncertain
ty of human life! Our duty to God and
to man Ito sum up all in a few
words, no matter of good or evil can
he properly realized and improved
without prayer.
We can get but little good from any
thing, however good it may be, if we
make but little account Of it. Prayer
is a medium of infinite good, but we
shall get little good from prayer, if
we do not tenderly and highly regard
it. Prayer must be regarded as infin-
itely important, if we wish or expect
to get infinite good from it, its food Is
indispensibly necessary to the sup
port and continuance of natural life,
so prayer, being the medium through
which we must receive the support OF
our spiritual life, therefore prayer is
Of infinite Importance.
Everything should.be avoided that
indisposes the mind to prayer.

In his address concerning "rhe
Greatest Fight in the World" Mr..
Sturgeon insists: ave should know
our Bible better ; we should preach on.
ly the Word of God and by Gods
grace purpose to believe the Word
more intersley, and resolve also that
we will quote more of the Holy Script
res. Further, that we should resolve
to use more fully than ever, what
God has provided for US in this Book,
for we are sure of its inspiration" In
this connection, he pertinently asks,
"If this Book is not infalliblp, where
shall we find infallibility? We have
given up the Pope, for he has blunder-
ed often and terribly; but we shall not
set up instead Of him herd of little
popelnys fresh from college. Are
these correctors of Scripture infallible?
Is it certain that our Bibles are not
right but that the critics must he soa
'DO hear some one say, but still
you must submit to the conclusion Of
science? No one is more ready than
we are to accept the evident facts of
science. But what do you mean by
science? Is the thing called SCIENCE
infallible? Is it not science, falsely so
called?' The history of that human
ignorance which calls itself 'philoso-
ply is absolutely identical with the
history of fools, except wherei it diverg-
es into madness"
In this connection he remarks ~
should not myself dare to say, that
philosophers and scientists are gener-
ally fools, but give them the liberty to
speak of one to another, and ut the
close I would say, Gentlemen, you
are less complimentary to each other
than should have been"
In another part of his work, speak
ing of the different views of theology
now pervading large portion of the
Christian church, he pertinently asks,
"Have any of you known or heard of
such Il thing us conversions wrought
by any other doctrine than that which
is the Word? should like to have a
catalogue of conversions wrought by
modern theology. Conversions
through the doctrines Of universal res
titutiOns? Conversions through the
doctrine of doubtful inspiration !!
Conversions to the love of God and
faith in Him, Christ, by hearing that
the death of the Saviour was only the
consumaiion of u grand example, but
not substitltionary sacrifice! Con-
Versions by Il gospel out of which all
the gospel has been drained!"

Be Careful What You Say.

There are places among the higher
Alps where at certain seasons the trav-
eller is cautioned to proceed softly and
in silence. Far up upon the steep slopes
the snow hangs so evenly balanced
that the report Of a pistol or the sound
of human voice may start a vibra-
ton that would tear it from its delicate
fastenngs and bring down the noun
tain side a laundering avalanche that
would carry destruction and death in
lis remorSeless path.
There may Le about US at times,
when we know not, souls that are 50
evenly balanced in their choice be-
tween good and evil, between Christ
and the world between heaven and
hell, that a single look or glance, u
touch or shadow, may decide their
destiny for time and eternity.
A young lady was once deeply im-
pressed with 4 Gospel sermon, and was
ready to cry out, "What must do to
be saved? when au unbecoming and
jesling remark made by church
member, az they retired from the house
of God most effectually diSsipated her
religious thoughts and serious impress
ions.
1t is said that there Is house so sit
uated on the summit of the Andes
that the rain drops falling on one side
of the ridge of the roof are carried to
the Atlantic, while those which fall
on the other side find their way to the
Pacific, Their destination may be
changed by the fin ger of a child or the
slightest change of the wind. A sim
gle breath of air may decide whether
the rain drops shall one day mingle
with the waters of the stormy Attain
tic, or rest and glitter Oh the bosom OF
the Pacific.
So there are Insignificant circum.
stances In life that change its current
wonderfully. The slightest influences
may determine the destiny of individ-
uals, may decide between extremes as
widely separated as the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans, may lead to goals as
different as heaven and hell, and be-
tween which there is an impossible
gulf of separation.
Says the Religious Herald: "A
young man who was at church with
his parents was deeply impressed by
lie vi OuC ,'cet oA t.A~
way home the father criticised the dis
course, and made several disparaglng
remarks about it. AS the father was
a member of the church, as well as a
kind father in The family, the effect OF
his criticisms was that the serious
thoughts of The son were ,lissipated,
and the solemn lessons OF the sermon
entirely lost their power over the
young man.
LAS another instance, a woman who
often criticised her pastor in the fami'
ly, saw her children growing up lndif-
fercnt to the church and to religious
things, and said to her pastor with
tears doctor, can't you help me to
save my boys" Madam he replied,
i have no influence with your boys ;
you have talked it all away" What q
lesson to all to speak with respect OF
ones minister and Of the truth he pro-
claims, that those whom you love may
he led by that truth to the way of du-
ty and to heaven.-A. r.. Presbyter-
ian.

DO not try to be a complete cncyclop-

little it may be, to a good purpose, is
