Words of Wisdom.

You may see continually girls who
have never been taught to do single
useful thing thoroughly who cannot
sew, who cannot cook, who cannot
cast an account, nor prepare a medi-
cine, whose whole life has been passed
either in play or in pride; you will
find girls like these, when they are
earnest-hearted, cast all their innate
passion of religious spirit which was
meant by God to support them through
the irksomeness of daily toll, into
grievous and vain meditation over the
meaning of the great Book, of which
no syllable was ever yet to be under
stood but through a deed all the in
stinctive wisdom and mercy of their
womanhood made vain, and the glory
of their pure consciences warped into
fruitless agony concerning questions
which the laws of common serviceable
life would have either solved for them
in an instant, or kept out of their way
Give such a girl any true work that
will make her active in the dawn and
weary at night, with the consciousness
that her fellow-creatures have indeed
been the better for her day, and the
powerless sorrow of her enthusiasm
will transform itself into majesty of
radiant and beneficent peace.

VOL. XXXVII---NO. 8.
A Negroes Illustration.

A celebrated Southern judge was,
IN his earlier years, sceptical as to the
truth of the Bible, and especially as
to the reality of experimental religion.
he had a faithful servant, who accom-
panied him in his travels around the
circuit. AS they passed from court
house to court house they frequently
conversed on the subject of religion,
the servant, Harry, venturing at times
to demonstrate with his master for his
lnfidelity. AS the judge had conf
dence in Harry's honesty and SINGER
ity, he asked him great many ques-
lions as to how he felt and what he
thought on various points
Amongst other things, Harry told
his master that he was often tempted
and tried by the devil The Judge de-
clared that he had no dealings with
the devil and asked Harry why, if
there was a devil, a sinner and an in
fidel like himself, should pass I'M
molested and interrupted For time
the servant could say nothing more
than he knew there was a devil, and
that he was often sorely beset by him.
Some time after, when the circuit
work was over, and the judge was on
his way home, he took the opportun-
ity of duck shooting on one of the
streams which lay across his road.
Creeping stealthily up to flock which
he saw floating ON the water, the Judge
fired, killing two or three, and wound
ing as many others. He at once threw
down his gun and made strenuous
efforts, with the aid of clubs and stones,
to secure the wounded ducks, whilst
he permitted the dead ones to float on
for the time unnoticed by him. Harry,
as he sat on the seat of the carriage,
watched his masters movements with
deep interest, and when he returned,
said to him 'Massa, while you was
splashin' in de water after dem
wounded ducks, and lettin' de dead
ones float on, it jist come into my
mind why it is dat de debil troubles
me SO much whilst he lets you alone.
You are like de dead ducks he's sure
he's got you safe. I'm like de wound
ed ones, tryin' to git away from him
and he's afraid I'll do it. He
knows he can git you any time
but he knows it's now or never wild
Inc. If you were to begin to flutter a
little, and show signs like you were
a-goin' to git away from him, he would
make jist as big splashin' after you as
he does after me-" The illustration
struck the learned judge with great
force, and led him to re-investigate
the grounds of his scepticism and
through Harry's instrumentality he
was finally brought to sit at the feet
of Jesus to learn of Him.

Equal to the Occasion.

Not long ago two young girls were
travelling 'out West" says writer
in the New York World As the train
stopped at station, two ladies enter
ed and took seats directly in front of
them. Just as they were seated, a
stout lady came forward, greeted them
effusiyely, and the trio kept up live
ly conversation until the train started.
Then one of them said: ''Sit down
here, near US" and, in a little lower
tone, ''tell those girls to sit somewhere
else" So the stout one turned round
and said, in the most freezing of tones ::
Il wish to converse with my friends,
and would like that seat l am Mrs.
President R. -, of this road"
The girls stared at her al instant, and
then one of them drawled: PLEASED
to meet you, I'm sure. l suppose you
know l am Mrs. President Harrison,
of Washington, and the other girl,
getting herself comfortably in her
seat, said: ''And l am Mrs. Queen
Victoria" There was an audible
smile from the other passengers, and
this stout lady went to her own seat
in the rear.

Vice Versa.

There is in the English navy a ia,
nous and valiant admiral, who, when
he is on shore, likes to take his ease
in his handsome home in Belgravia, at
the West end of London.
Not long ago, on a pleasant after
noon, the admiral sat in front of his
residence, in a somewhat neglected
costume, smoking a pipe.
A policeman came past and looked
at him hard. The admiral paid no at
tention.
Look 'ere!' said the policeman,
presently. Do you belong to the 'ouse,
you know?''
No" said the admiral; 1.-The 'ouse

Life'S DISCIPLINE.

Let us remember that the spiked
nettles of life are part of our discipline.
Life would get nauseating if it were
all honey. That table would be
poorly set that had on it nothing but
treacle We need a little vinegar,
mustard, pepper and horse radish that
brings the tears even when we do not
feel pathetic. If this world were all
smoothness, we would never be ready
for emigration to higher and better
clustering March and weeping April
prepare us for shining May. This
of tying fast on the cold Ie mountains i
we had better whip up and hasten on
toward the warm inn where our good
friends are looking out of the window,
watching to see us come up.

POEM BY MILTON,

IOEM BY MILTON.
| am old and blind!
Men point ut me as smitten by Gods frOwn;
Afflicted and deserted of my kind;
Yet am not cast down.
I am weak yet strong;
i murmur not that no longer see;
Poor, old and helpless, the more belong,
Father Supreme, to Thee.
merciful One!
Whenmen are fathers, then Thou are most near
When friends pass by me, and my weakness
Thy chariot hear.
Thy glorious face
Is leaning toward me and its holy light
Shines in upon my lonely dwelling pace
And there is no more night.
On my Bonded knee
recognize the purpose clearly shown;
My vision Thou hast dimmed, that may see
Thyself-thyself alone.
have naught to fear;
This darkness is the shadow of Thy wing;
Beneath it am almost sacred here
Can come no evil thing.
Oh l seem to stand
Trembling where foot of mortal ne er hath been
Wrapped in the radiance of Thy sinless land,
Which eyes hath never seen.
Visions come and go;
Shapes of Respondent beauty round me throng
From angel lips l seem to hear the flow
OF soft and holy song.
1t is nothing now,
When heaven is open my sightlesS eyes.
When airs from Paradise refresh my brow,
The earth in darkness lies.
In pure cline
My being filled with rapture-waveso of thought
Roll in upon my spirit-strains sublime
Break over me unsought.
Give me now my Tyre!
/ feel the STRINGS of gift divine,
Within my bosom glows unearthly fire,
Lit by no skill of mine.
