Drifting Apart. How many person,
there are who are drifting apart;
Families part asunder, husbands and
wives seperate, brothers and sisters
drift away. The same roof may cover
them, they may eat at the same tables
they may come and 60 ostensibly as
members of the same family, but IN
reality drifting asunder day by day.
They have less in common, less union,
less friendship, less love, and some
times love turns to hatred and disgust,
and persons who begin by drifting
away, end in open warfare and un'
brotherly strife. Families which be,
gin to drift apart on trifing matters
are finally utterly wrecked and broken
up. -. IL.
Watch against the tendency to drift
asunder. Keep the bonds of affection
bright, pray against the tendencies t.
evil. Let heart and hands be united
in sincere affection. Let love be with
out dissimulation, abhor that which !!
evil, cleave to that which is good
Stay the harsh words, be patient undel
trials and affections, watch against sin
resist evil, and pray that God MAY
keep you peaceful and united in
world of strife, dissension and desola
ton, and bringing you to the land o
rest and peace, the home of eve: last
ing gladness in the .p:esence of tn
Prince of Pace.

"A Genius for Helping Folks"

"There is a man." said his neighbor,
speaking of village carpenter. VINO
has done more good, I really believe,
In this community, than any map
who ever lived in it. He can not talk
very well in prayer meeting, and lie
doesn It often try. He isn't worth two
thousand dollars, and its very little he
can put down on subscription papers
from any other object. But a new
family never moves into the village
that he does not find them out to give
them a neighborly welcome, and 01er
any little service he can render. He ls
usually on the outlook to give strangers
a seat in his pew in church. He Is
always ready to watch with SICK
neighbor and look after his affairs 1oi
him, and I've sometimes thought thai
he and his wife kept house plants IN
winter just for the sake of being able
to send little bouquets to invalids. He
finds time for a pleasant word for every
child he meets, and you'llIalways see
them climbing into his one-horse wag
on when he has no other load. He
really seems to have genius for help
ing folks in all sorts Of common ways
and it does me good every day, just tt
meet him on the streets.-Chrlstlan

Wine that is made of pure water is
safe for use at wedding. If we
would be guided in our drinking by
this miracle, let us remember all the
facts in the case.
The man who believes that the Lord
reveals his will through horrid night
mares and loud growing roosters, II ay
be pardoned if he fails to find the Bible
as interesting as the coffee-grounds in
a g,psy's fortune cup.
The devil spends great deal of bis
time, invent;ng scarecrows to keep
people out of the Church. The best
product of his genius in this direction
so far, is the official member who has
the reputation among his neighbors OF
being tricky in money matters.
To lift a fallen man to his feet and
lead him to better life without re-
preaching him for his weakness, OF
abusing him for his sins, is Christlike.
That is the way to restore one who
has been overtaken in q fault in the
spirit of meekness, and to do as you
would be done by.
The life you live now is all the more
worth living because it opens into 8
life that will never end, and the lasl
letter. of the word "time" is The firsl
letter of the word "eternity."

This story is going the rounds. "As
q prominent professor of Theology In a
well-known Methodist Seminary, was
walking down crowded avenue in
New York, a member of the Salvation
Army offered him a tract" II am a
Christian and teacher of Theology,
said the Professor politely. Don't
despair, sir don't despair, sir, on that
account" replied the army man !;
"Salyation is free to ALL"
That reminds US of Mr.. Mood US ex-
perience with colored man in Au-
rusta, Ga, some years ago. The
Evangelist had been captured on MS
way to Florida and induced to con-
duct meeting. Seeing little man
of color bustling about very officiously,
Mr.. Moody said to him, LOOK, mere
nv friend, see you here great deal ;
are YOU a Christian ?" Where upon
Tomswho was Charlestonian, draw
ing up his rather dimlnutive stature
with great dignity replied, "Who san !

A Cure For Laziness.--The following
treatment was formerly .np-
piled in Dutch workhouses to indolent
and apathetic individuals: The patti
ent was placed in a sort of large tub,
into which water was kept constantly
flowing through a pipe, so that In
order to keep himself from drowning
he bad to turn crank which pumped
the water out again. The water sup
DIV and the hours of working were
pieely adjusted to his strength and
endurance, and the amount gradually
increased every day. In one report it
saws: "The inactive limbs are soon
brought to the required degree of sup
pleness, and the men very soon begin
to ask for some less irksome labor,
which they afterwards perform in
most satisfactory manner"

The suffering among the London poor
this winter is not so great as was ex-
pected, says correspondent. 1t has
been about an average winter for thp
unemployed. There has been only about
week of severe weather, which fact
has greatly mitigated suffering. London
is now rejoicing in pleasant skies and
springlike air, influences under which
the grass has been always green. and
shrubs are now putting out their leaves.
and trees are beginning to bud.
A very different story comes from
eastern Europe. In districts in Russia
the winter is 80 severe that wolves are
unusually fierce. The other day at
Saratoff a peasant woman walking near
the village was surrounded and de-
voured by pack of nine wolves. An
other peasant going to market was set
upon by pack of wolves and torn to
shreds. Nothing was left of man and
horse but few bones and tufts of hair.

THAT ROYAL ROMANCE.

The Baron Rescued the Princess From, I .
Prison, and Now They Are Wed.
The love story of the Princess Eli
beth of Bavaria turns out to be ey,
more romantic, according to its lat.
version, than at first reported. The fl.
account declared that the princess, hay
ing known Baron Won Seifried for man
years, married him with the reluctant
granted consent of her parents and of hc
uncle, Emperor Francis Joseph of A II.
tria. The ceremony was said to hay
taken place at Genoa.
1t now appears that the royal parent
of the princess opposed with right roya
sternness the mismarriage of thei
daughter. She was borne away, lii,
some lovelorn damsel of old, to a SO
questered castle in the Tyrol. Here sh
was left to repent and reflect upon I'll
folly of misplaced affection. Baron VI
Seifried was meanwhile garrisoned q
Metz, in Lorraine.
But the fair prisoner found means t
inform her trusty knight and true o
her whereabouts, and he fastened to he
relief by the first railway train. The
met at Bautzen, where all trace of then
was lost. But President Won Crailshein
of the Bavarian ministerial council ha
just received word that the couple wer
married in little parish chuch nea
