Come out, o soul, into the solemn night
Along the spirit way
Como out unsandaled, for the holy place
is near the bound that mortal eye may trace;
Come, and unshrinking meet me face to face.
WHAT II my Lord should stand and question me;
II He should say
Where is the talent intrusted thee
One distant dayi
How blooms the plot OF fallow ground lentt
How hast thou used the sun and rain sent,
How were the golden hours OF springtime
spentS
What II my Lord should sternly speak to me;
II He should say
Bring back tonight mine own with usury
Since that far day:
And show what fruit clngs to the tender stem,
Thine erring brothers whom all tongues con-
What hast thou done In Christly love for them,
All, IL my Lord should stand with patient eyes
And question me,
Outside the flaming gates OF paradise,
With Bonded knee,
With lips upon His nail-bruised feet close
pressed,
could but moan: ~ love Thee most and best.

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL

The mother OF Whitefeld, tina
great pulpit orator, was a woman OF
high character. He always bore trib-
ute to her Christian virtues.
Nearly every Christian denomina-
ton in this country has made efforts,
more or less successful, to establish
and keep up missions among the In
dams
The Presbyterians of Belfast, in
order to meet the rapid growth of the
city, have resolved to raise fund of
SEQ, 900 towards the erection of ten new
churches.
Some of the female students in the
University of Michigan have decided
to wear knickerbockers hereafter and
hope to influence the rest of the girls
to do the same.
DIR. Sargent, physical director at
Harvard, announces himself as opposed
to military drills in schools, which, he
Says, tend to contracted chests and
round shoulders.
C. w. Botsford, Phi. D., who has
just been appointed lecturing instruc-
tor in Greek and Latin history in Har-
ward, is little over 80 years old and is
graduate of the University of Kansas
The Young Mems Christian Assoc
citation is doing wonderful work in
the colleges of the world. In 1894
there were ASS college associations
with 10000 members. This does not
include foreign associations.
When DIR. Samuel +. Mather, who
died at Kansas City June /, realized
that his end was near he caused con-
tract to be made giving property to
the amout of $25, 900 for the erection of
the Kansas City Methodist Protestant
University.
The American Bible Society recent
ly held its annual meeting at New
York. The report of the managers
showed that during the past year 1881
12S Bibles and Testaments were issued,
of which 735, PEI were circulated in for
eign lands.
Leonard Thompson, of Woburn,
Mass, has presented the Woburn pub
lie library with painting represent
ing the ordination of Thomas Carter as
a minister of the Church of Christ in
Woburn in 1642, when the territory
was wilderness
The Baptists of Oceano, Cal, use for
baptismal purposes a natural lake of
tepid water near the town. There may
be virtue in baptism through the ice,
but it would seem like flying in the
face of Providence not to take advant-
age of such comforta BILE natural bap-
tismal font. .... .......
Next to Harvard the oldest college
was that of William and Mary, at Will
liamsburg, the capital of Virginia.
Yale College, in New Haven, was the
third in age. There was also during
colonial times college in New York,
one in Philadelphia, and another in
Princeton, N. j.
To the distinguished list of here
tics of the Presbyterian church may
soon be added the name of Prof. Drum
mond. Oddly enough, it is said that
the date of the beginning of suspicion
of his orthodoxy is that of the publica-
ton of his Greatest Thing in the
World" in which nothing of creedal
nature is perceivable by the ordinary
reader.

IL Is Patience, That Rich Possession OF .
Tried Character.
Tribulation worketh patience. Pa
thence is it's very product. You know
there is great difference between
things inorganic and things organic.
Take a bar of iron. II is frangible at a
given point; you can strain it and ID
will stand the straining to the point at
which it is frangible. Once you reach
that point, then comes a break. The
oak sapling can be bent, can be broken;
once you expose it to force enough the
rupture must come. But between the
bar of iron and the oak there is this
difference: the bar remains frangiblo
forever at the same point; bat the sap
ling, nursed by the soil beneath,
warmed by the sun above, watered by
the rains, moistened by the dews, kind
ly held in the bosom Of mother earth,
grows; 1t expands, 1t strengthens,
till at last at the power which
would have bent itself and
snapped the iron-a thing of strength
nursed into it's might by tempest and
by storm. You may in the conserva-
tory rear the trailing vine or rear the
tropical plant, but put into 1t hardy
English oak or the tall Norwegian
pine, and they within the conservatory
would die-their life is exposure. Give
them the heaven, the wind of heaven
in their branches; give them the dew
and the rain of heaven on their leaves;
give them the great spacious earth
beneath into which they can send their
roots in search of moisture and in
search Of strength and they will live,
and become things of beauty and joy
forever. So let man in the grace, and
by the strength of God, face life; stand
in front of it with all its trouble, with
all its tempest, with all its sorrow,
with all it's sufferlngl The tribulation
will work patience, make the more OF
man of him, make him the more able
to stand In the presence of God as Q
servant approved. -Watchman.

with such costly viands as the inn
perial gourmand of Rome never
dreamed of.
To sum up the whole matter: You
are to make the most of your life by
looking for the bright side of every
event.
You are to do your work, whatever
1t may be, with good-natured willing
ness, since smiles will be of more serv-
ice TO you than scowls,
You are to bear your burden not
grimly or sullenly, but as cbeerfully

You are to be the servant of Provi-

keep you busy until you are summoned
