Follow me as come out of the court of
Heaven, and away from the glory which

the holiness and obscurity of this fallen
race; follow me through the fierce fires

blood stream down from every pore !;
follow mo TO yOnder Calvary and up on
yonder cross, and catch little of the

and those five were girls. No question
about the substance of the mind, but
for alertneSs land most of the prizes of
life are taken by alertneSs, for a sort of
capacity to turn around and reach the
destiny without going round all the
details of the work. for that, man can
hardly be thought of. You remember
the case of good old Alfred, king of
England, running from his enemies who
pursued him With naked sabers; hiding
in peasants cot, she threw over his
shoulders peasants cloak and set him
to attending to a pot of boiling mush.
The soldiers rushed in. looking for him,
and he was drawn off in his attention
and looked too closely at them, when
the peasant, with greater genius than
her king, boxed his ears and said,
Tend to your mush," and saved his
life. | suppose you are familiar
with the story of the good, strong
man who, looking out of the
window, saw an important neigh

his wife, There comes that old bore"
and ran up stairs. He stayed long
time, he thought she had gone and came
down STAIRS, saying, as he came, "HaS

charms of women and the inherent

Courage, monumental courage! Why.
men are brave, but women are heroic.
Nature is in league with courage:
women have supreme abundance of

it seems to me God comes to us,
all of US, in our littleness.
He tries every possible way to reach us.
Some strain of music comes finally into
our hearts, and If we will but roll to-
ward Him He will meet us and pick us
up and strengthen us, and maybe over
yonder we will sing with the great COM
pany in his presence, and maybe we
will lead some of the little choirs of am
gels, teaching them the song of Moses
and the Lamb. That is Gods way Of
coming to US, even in our littleneSs.
Oh, let me ask you this hour, all of you.
while you sit here, sOlemnly to covenant
with God that you will walk after Him,
and He will bring you out of these years
in victory, order ali things for your good,
see to it that nothing shall, by any
means, harm you, bring you off more
than cOnquerors, and in the great day
seat you at His right hand. the Lambs
bride. May God bless you.
