THOUGHTS OF HEAVEN.

Is it not too common among US when we
think Of heaven to think only OF its joys and
its pleasures? When the unconverted think
of 1t. they think only of its loyeliness and
its spIeudor, its rest and its calm, its rivers
of pleasure and It's fulness Of joy. They
think not OF the source Of these joys in
holy God and Of the holiness Of nature
which the enjoyment Of them presupposes:
This Is the reason why 80 many who will
never reach heaven as yet. in the time
of disappointment and in the hour Of trial,
clinging 10 the hope Of 1t. They
all look upon 1t as rest after labor, as ter.
mination TO all their trouble, as quiet
haven i'm which their bark may rest after
being tossed by winds and waves In q
heightened voyage. While Gods people do
not overlook this view of heaven, they re-
gard it also as place free from Sin. One
reason why the believer longs so much for
heaven is. that it is place Of holiness.
When in this present world. he feels not
only the burden of pain and fear and an.
guish, he feels still more, and above all,
The load of sin. 1--WE that are in this
tabernacle do groan, being burdened;'
and. the chief part of our burden is this
that sin Is still cleaving to US. One
chief reason leading the believer to long 70
much for the mansions OF light is that there,
not only sorrow and si9hing. but all sin ana
pollutio, pass away. He hopes not only for
only for blessedness such a. he hath never
been permitted to ENJOY on earth: he hopes
that being freed from oil evil dispositions
and the sins which beset him. he shall be
holy as the angels are holy.-iDr. McCosh..

GODS WAY.

"And He led them forth by right way,
that they might go to city of habitation:"
What q comforting thought It is that God
can overrule even our mistakes and failures
for our highest good! No one who has BEEN
over the PENNSYLVANIA Railroad by daylight
can forget the wonderful horseshoe bend.
The first time saw It. as looked out OF my
window and watched the rear cars OF our
train gliding along towards the curve In ex-
actly the opposite direction to that which
was at that time pursuing, and realized that
only few minutes before was myself IN
the same position, It flashed into my mind
that this is the way in which God sometimes
leads his children.
They put themselves into his hands and
seek to follow his guidance, but he places
them In circumstances which seem to them
unfavorable to that development In grace
for which they long. Yet they know that
their Heavenly Father csp make no mistake,
and, If they leave themselves In his hands.
he will bring them safely to their desired
haven; and when they look back upon theif
lives from the end they will see that at ths
very time when they fel as II they were
being led out of the right path, they were
really Fastening on their way to heaven:
Only let us be sure that we are letting Christ
lead US, and we may safely leave the details
of the journey to him.
Gas for God, his way Is perfect"
"I know not the way am going,
But well do know my Guide;
With childlike trust give my hand
To the loving Friend by my side.
The only thing say to him
As he takes it Is, Hold it fast;
Suffer me not to lose my way,
And guide me home at last"

SPECIAL WORK.

There is work for all of us. And there
Is work for each, work which cannot do
In crowd, or as one Of mass, but as one
man, acting singly, according to my own
gifts, and under sense of my personal re.
sponsibility. There is, no doubt, associated
work for me to do; must do my WORK as
part of the worlds great whole, or as
member Of some great body. But have
special work to do, as one individual VINO
by Gods plan and appointment has separ-
ate position, separate responsibilities, and
separate work if DO not do 1t, 1t must be
left undone. No one Of my fellows can do
that special work for me, which have come
into the world to do he may do higher
work, greater work, but he cannot
do my work. I cannot hand my
work over to him, any more than l
can hand over my responsibilities or my
gifts. Nor can delegate my work to any
association of men, however well ordered or
powerful. They have their own work to do,
and it may be very mob e one. But they
cannot do my work for me. must do it
with these hands or with these lips which
God has given me. I may do little or may
do much. That matters not. 1t must be
my own work. And by doing my own
work, poor as it may seem to some, shall
better fulfill Gods will in making me what
am, and more truly glorify his name, than
either II were going out OF my own sphere
to do the work Of another, or calling IN an
other into my sphere to do my work for me.

INTOXICATING LIQUORS.

DIR. Edward Everett Hale says: like to

and crime which result from drunkenness,
the South Congregational church, OF which

take charge Of the poverty which needs out
door relief in the city of Boston. Ii that
church could satisfy its conscience with as
small work as that, it would certainly re-
lieve its visiting forces and its treasury Of
very considerable part Of the demands now
made upon them.
