In order that prayer may be always
manly, womanly, truly human, let it be
in all ways sincere. Say and do those
things that serve TO bring you nearer in
feeling to your God. kneel when you
pray, If that action comes spontaneously
as a true way of forgetting the self in
higher things. Bow down in prayer.
not to be seen by others, nor in the way
of shocking your own self reliance, but
do it when the act seems to fit the mood,
and to express your glad reverence for
all that is better than yourself.
When the body bows thus, the soul is
looking up into the very face of tho
eternal. This upward look of the soul
is the essence of prayer-a brave and
hopeful lifting up Of the spirit of man
When any one is cast down, forsaken,
crushed, }mperiled or in any other way
stricken let him not yield to the mood
of fear or of sorrow, but rather let the
spirit hold itself erect and manful, face
to faco with the light eternal, heart TO
heart with God, the life that is larger
than ours.
All such prayer is rich in reasonable
ness, strong in helpfulness. noble in it,
manliness. The progress of souls rests
upon such prayer. 1t is the mainstay Of
civilization, the angel of the home, the
comforter of men in trouble and then
guide in darkness. 1t is victory over
sin. Learn then its simple wisdom
choose its manly way, and SO advance
into your grander life.-Rev. @. Z. st.
John in ChiEtian Register.

How ths CnaritabIs Shoemaker Was
visited BY Our Saviour.
Marlin again took up his work and
began 70 stitch. After working some
little time be saw that It was growing
dark and ho could no longer SEQ to sew.
Looking through the window be saw q
iamplighter pass by. "Well, !" he thought
TO himself. "it Is time for me to have @
Hight" he arose, and after trimming
his lamp and lighting It he hung It up
and again prepared 10 work.
Presently be put his tools away and
brushed up the scraps, after which he
placed the lamp on the table. He next
took down the holy book from the shelf.
He intended opening 1t at place which
he had marked with piece of leather,
but ON placing the book On the table it
opened at en- entirely different place,
and as he did so he remembered yester-
days dream. At the same time he heard
a noise In the room, as If some one was
moving behind him. He turned sudden
fy around and fcncied he saw q number
Of people standing in the corner, but he
was unable to recognize them. Present
ly o VOICE whispered:
Martin; ah, Martin, did you not know
me7"
"Whomy' muttered Martin.
"Me," repeated the voice. sIt is IT,
said Stepanovitch (whom he had fed,
smiling pleasantly as he advanced from
the dark corner, and then like cloud he
vanished.
"And this is l." said another voice,
when the woman with her child (whom
he had succoreO stepped forth. Tho
woman also smiled, while the infant
laughed gleefully, and they, too, quick
ly disappeared.
"And here we are" said o third voice,
when both the old woman and the boy,
with an apple in his hand, came for
ward. They also smiled, and instantly
faded away.
Martin was now almost overcome with
a feeling Of joy, more sweet than he
had ever before experienced. He began
to read the following passage at which
the Bible had accidentally opened:
For was hungered, and ye gave me
meat; and was thirsty, and We gave me
drink; was a stranger, and ye took me
in"
And Martin understood that his dream
had been realized, and that the Saviour
had in very truth visited him that day.
and that he had received him in the
proper spirit. from tho BUS
sian Of Count Tolstoi.
