How proud the Democratic party
must be of the man whom they have
raised to the highest Office. and upon
whom they have bestowed the highest
honors of this great country, How
they must honor and respect him for
the action taken by him in regard to
the Hawaiian matter. Now that his
scheme is a complete failure. he would
be glad to sneak out of it, but he cam
not, with credit to himself or to the
country. He has diseraced the whole
country, Democrats and Republicans
alike, as wen as himself. One would
expect better things of any fairly in
telligent citizen than have been receiv-
ed from our President. 1t is quite evil
dent that Mr.. Cleveland is moved bv

BOyish Impressions.
Christian linton.

'1iow boyish impressions cling to onel''
said doctor yesterday When you told
me who that old gentleman was that Just
passed, it brought to my mind the time
when l was IL boy at Lewiston. There was
a blast furnace there, and it was "a mark
of distinction to be able to become familiar
enough with the engineer to have him ask
you to come into the engine room. Any
boy who had the honor was the envy of all
the rest. | remember how we watched
that 200 horsepower engine, looking at CIV.
FRY part and noting even the name of the
maker.
THE boys used to get together and dis
cusJ which they would rathcr--bc the pres
ident Of the United States or the maker of
what to US was wonderful piece of ma
chinory. Il W. invariably decided that
the making OF an engine was the more
desirable honor How we pictured the
man who was able to construct such
piece of incchauism! We thought the
whole woIlu must be bowling down before
him.
NO; the man you pointed out was the
maker of that engine. As soon as you
spoke his name | saw tho raised iron let
tiers standing out plainly before me. l was
just thinking what n treat we boys would
have thought we were getting if we could
have seen this man. A circus would have
been thrown in the shade by the presence
of SUCH as we thought, great man. But
the world widens as we grow older, and
the ideals of our boyhood days vanish into
such faint remembrance as have Just
been giving you. More is the pity -

Christmas.

The inn was full at Bethlehem;
A busy crowd we're there;
And some were rich, and some we're wise,
And some were young and fair;
But who or what they were, to day
There is not one to care;
But in the cattle's manager
There lay baby stranger.
Soft nestled, like a snow.white dove, among the
scented hay;
And lol through him was given
Our song to Earth and Heaven,
The song two worlds together sing upon Christmas
day;
Glory to Godl Good will to menl
o. listenl Wake it once againl
Peace upon Earth! Good will to menl"
They sing 1t. those who sang 1t first,
The angels stro & and high;
They sing In shining white, the saints
Who died long years gone by,
And all the hutterng cherub throng
The children Of the sky;
They sing the patient. waiting souls
Who still Faiths conflicts know,
They sing LIES happy innocents,
Their faces all aglow
One melody fills Heaven above
And floats from Earth below,
The song of that sweet stranger
Who, in the cattles manager
Lay. nineteen hundred years ago. amo < the scented
hayl
All sin and wrong forgiven
Earth seems close kin of Heaven,
And sweet two worlds together sing upon Christ.

The Neglected Rich.

An incident comes to US from one of
our well-known noble Christian work
ers. A great effort has been made in
one of our to yns to rescue the intern
oerate, and to enlist the sympathy of
Christians in their behalf Meetings
were held, and earnest personal effort
made to reach those who were in the
lowest strata of humanity. To this
class their efforts were specially di-
rected. One of the most devoted work.
ers, walking past prominent bus-
ness house, said to herself, Here is
one who everybody knows is rapidly
going the downward way through
strong drink. Why should l not seek
to save him? l will go in and person
ally plead the case" Her courage
failed. She passed and repassed the
great establishment, and finally went
home to think over the best way of ap.
preaching this influential and promi-
nent merchant. She feared that he
would be angry by being personally APP
preached on the subject of his intern.
perance. The next day she went again,
and again walked back and forth, her
heart failing her. At last, with an up
lifted prayer for help, she quietly
opened the door, half wishing that she
would not find him in Walking into
his private office, she found him at his
desk. She was greeted with pleasant
good morning, which only made it the
harder for her to speak to him upon
the subject. Forgetting the little
speech she had prepared, with which to
approach him, she burst out with, "Oh,
Mr.. -, l was 40 troubled about you,
80 anxious in your behalf" All fear
and trepidation fed on the instant, and
with all the earnestness of her soul she
pleaded with him to turn from the dam
gerous channel which he had entered.
Then, apologizing for what might seem
to him an unwarranted intrusion, she
started for the door. To her surprise
he rose, and in kind and gentlemauly
manner thanked her for her interest
in him, and said: :" have been sur
prised, and wondered, through all these
meetings, that no one has come to me
before this, as my habits are well
known in the community. You have
gone down to the gutter to plead with
the lowest, the most ignorant and de-
pressed, and have made desperate eff
forts to save them. have often said
to myself, of what use to the world will
they ever be, even if reclaimed, and
why do they not come to me and many
others like me, who if once saved for
this great aim might be an honor to
God and a benefit to humanity? Are
we not worth saving?" With choking
voice, he thanked her for her interest
and her prayers, and added: BY the
grace of God l will try to overcome this
terrible habit, which know is leading
me to the loss of body and soul" We
need in this work to have no respect of
persons; to be faithful in personal SER
vice with all classes. Sow beside all
waters.-Ihe Christian.

My Mother.

Children, look in those eyes, listen to
that dear voice; notice the feeling of
even a single touch that is bestowed
upon you by that hand! Make much
of it while yet you have that most pre-
cious of all Gods gifts, loving mother.
Read the unfathomable love of those
eyes, the kind anxiety of that touch and
look, however slight your pain. In
after life you NAV have friends, but
never will you have again the mex
pressibe love and gentle care shed upon
you which none but a mother bestows.
Never can l forget her sweet
glances cast upon me when l appeared
asleep, never her kiss at night. Years
have passed away since we laid her be-
side my father in the old churchyard,
yet still her voice whispers from the
grave, and her eyes watch over me, as
visit spots long since hallowed to the
memory of my Enthusiastically.

Hymn for the Closing Year.

thou that sealest up the past,
The days slip from u.s. and the years
Grow silent with their hopes and fears;
IT'S thine to keep all things at last.
We have not done the things we would,
A blotted page we render back;
And yet, whate'or our work may lack,
Thy work goes on, and thou art good.
Thou movest in the moving years;
Wherever man is, there thou art,
To override his feeble part,
And ring blessing out OF tears.
We know what blessings had their birth
In thy great purpose, and we see
What evil customs touched by thee
Are crumbllng ruins in the earth.
Thy hand has been in every age,
To mold the ways OF men, and teach
The generations each to each
To leave nobler heritage.
know the word is in thy breath
That guides the wheels of time; know
IT'S thou that guidest them although
They bear me toward the Vale of Death.
And as the silent seasons pass
Along their well-appointed way,
Nor any hand is raised to stay
The falling SANDS, the emptyng glass,
own thy promise, for find
In all thy dealings evermore
Thou teachest that the things before
Are better than the things behind.
A nobler lot awaits the soul
Than that of dying star and sun;
Our lives do not in circles run,
But ever onward to a goal
Thou, opener of the years to be,
Let me not lose in woe or veal
The touch of that strong hand feel
UNFOLDING and directing mel
