CHEERFULNESS.

[For the SUNDAY UNIoN.l
No man ever met misfortune that was
not somewhere and at some time made
useful to him. There are times in the
lives of most all of us when we seem to
be actually crucified; when misfortune
seems as many-armed as the octopus
with determination to crush its victims
or engulf them in the black, seething
waters of despair, until they cry out in
their agony, Father, if it be possible let
this cup pass from me-"
Yet many of the difficulties of life can
be overcome with cheerful spirit. With
cheerfulness for companion the heart
will go through experiences, bear disap-
pointments, rejoice in tribulation and be-
lieve that all things shall work together
for good. Work done amid buoyancy
and hope is usually well done. No mat
ter how hard the task may be, nor how
unpleasant or unpromising skill and
tact with cheerfulness-unless the him
dranceS are invincible-will accomplish
good results.
Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone.
The sad old earth must borrow its mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.''
The jolliest of us are liable to fall into
dull moods sometimes. Will-power can
not control all sickness, but it can con-
troll great many imaginary bodily ills.
Lives are very much like rivers, some
broad. beautiful, and calm, flowing on
ward, enriching the country, while others
are broken up into falls, Inns and cata-
racts, the roar of which deadens, within
the heart, all sounds of nature.
Ordinary minds see no evidence of God
in the one however much they may recog-
nize it in the other, yet at times God was
in the whirlwind as powerfully as III the
still small voice LYNN LUBIN.

KING copHETUA THE ELDER.

Beneath a palm she found q seat
(Her image made the river smile),
And bathed her little ivory feet
And slender ankles in the Nile.
In faith, a pleasant sight was thisI
OF all the pretty maids that be
The circling sun might never kiss
A prettier maid than Rhodope.
BY chance an eagle fierce and proud
Came flying over land and sea,
And STOPPING from his lofty cloud
Looked down on lovely Rhodope.
Then, uttering a scream of JOY.
He seized the little slipper bright
A dainty. siiken, pearly toy
And bore 1t swiftly out of sight.
The King, he sat in golden crown.
About him stood gliftering band
When loi an eagle giidingxiown
Had placed slipper in his hand.
He kissed il once, he kissed it twice:
..Sweet slipper-sweeter footi'' quoth he
SEQ, md il, slaveslo And in trice
They brought bewitehing RhoGope.
One little foot was sandalled fair
In pearly slipper. as was fit:
The other little foot was bare,
No pearl ON earth could equal it.
The courtiers sing Long live the King.''-
But not without Queen" said he;
Then gave his crown and everything
To pretty little Rhodope. &c. s. II.

Electric Lights,

The correspondent of an English paper
states that on consulting an eminent ocu-
list for an affection of the eyes, he found
that the consulting rooms of the physi-
clan We're crowded with persons suffer-
affections, caused by having exposed the
eye to the unprotected electric light. He
goes on to say that to be harmless to the
eye the electric light should be guarded
in one of three ways-either with frosted
white glass, opal-tinted covers or sur
mounted with colored fringe-so that the
eye cannever see it, cut or effiorescent
glass covers being Objectionable and dam

OF modes of baptism the Church Times
says: Baptism by Immersion was the
general rule of the Apostolic and Primi-
tive Church, and continued so for the first
twelve centuries, from which time began
the innovation of affusion in the Western
Church. But the latter mode was prac-
ticed in some cases, as in clinic baptism,
and the quantity of water used has never
been held to affect the validity OF the sac
rament -

In round figures the enlisted men of the
regular army number 25,000, and the

continually changing from deaths, en-
