A Blossom TranspIanted.

In memory of little Louise Curry, who went
home September l, 1895, aged six years.
In the infant class room of the
Ocala Baptist Sunday school there
was group of bright-faced little
ones. They had been following
with eager interest the wonderful
journeyings of the Israelites, and
today the lesson was "The New
Home in Canaan" 1t seemed
specially pleasing to them. They
studied the large, colored. picture
and took in every detail with their
keen, observant little eyes. Then
the teacher told them of the new
home God had promised them, so
much more beautiful than Canaan,
where there was no sickness nor
sorrow, and where there was no
night, but always happy, glorious
day. And as she looked into the
sweet, innocent faces before her a
prayer went up from her heart that
every one of them might enter
that home when LIES journey was
done.
One week later there was an
empty seat. Little Louise Curry,
one of the brightest and most in
terestiDg of the little band, was
sick.
Nothing but sickness would
have kept her away, for in several
months she had been absent only

once, and then Internationally.
Always wide-awake, listening in
tently and often surprising the
teacher with her quaint, thought
full answers.
But the next Sabbath the little
ones looked with sad and wonder
ing eyes on the seat, still empty,
that would never again be occupied
by her. It was to them a great
mystery. But the teacher tenderly
reminded them of the beautiful
home on the other side Of the
river, and how little Louise had
said she wanted to go there and
see the baby sister she never had
seen on earth; and SO in the quiet
twilight last Sabbath evening the
dear Lord Jesus had come and
carried her.across. She had only
gone over the river to the beauti-
full land beyond. n Dear
little pupil, may all the little class
mates, and the teacher who misses
thee so much, be permitted to
meet thee again in that home
whose glories are now unfolding
to thy raptured sight.
Goodnight" until the morning.
Mrs. 7. d. CRAWFORD.

! tons become, that was about to
ask the brother with whom he had
sat if the Lord had said anything
70 him concerning the sermon,
but sense of propriety and self
respect at once checked the sug
gestion. Then Immediately other
questions began with equal vehe-
mence to crowd into the mind.
| "When did he think of the sanct-
uary, it's gothic arches, it's stained
windows, its costly and powerful
organ? How was he impressed
/ with the music and the order of
the Worship" 1t did not seem at
that moment as though [ could
ever again care or have the small
lest curiosity as to what men mignt
say of preaching, worship or church
if I could only know that he had
not been displeased, that he would
not withhold his feet from coming
again because he had been grieved
at what he might have seen or
heard.
We speak of ga momentous oc-
casion." This, though in sleep,
was recognized as such by the
dreamer-a lifetime, almost
crowded into a single solemn mo-
ment. One present for an hour
who could tell me all l have so
longed to know; who could point
out to me the imperfections of my
service; who could reveal to me
my real self, to whom, perhaps, I
am most a stranger; who could cor
rect the errors in our worship to
which long usage and accepted
tradition may have rendered us in
sensible. While l had been preach
ing half an hour he had been there
and listening, who could have told
me all this, and infinitely more
and my eyes had been holden, that
I knew him not; and now he had
gone. "Yet little while l am
with you, and then / go unto him
that sent me.
One thought, however, fingered
in my mind with something of
comfort, and more of awe. "He
has been here today, and no doubt,
he will come again." and mentally
repeating these words as one re-
gretfully meditating on a vanished
vision, 81 awoke and it was a
dream" No it was not dream.
It was a vision of the deepest
reality, miniature of an actual
ministry, verifying the statement
often repeated, that sometimes we
are most aware toward God when
we are asleep toward the world.
