Staying Away from Church.

The habit of absenting ones self
from the Sunday services of the church
is one very easily made. Sometimes
it is occas!oned by sickness; very often
some small excuse, some grudge
against a member, some resentment at
a fellow members fault, is the occa-
sion. Jesus will be there. even IL an
unworthy member. Is p-csent Jesus
may be present, especially to meet and
forgive that unworthy member; and
who are we that we should Judge
a brother or a sister? We must be
careful not to repeat Thomas error. or
we may also-we almost certainly will
also-repeat his unbelief. II we do
not. like Thomas. come back again to
the place where Jesus meets His dis
ciplec, how can we expect to meet Him ?
At least let no one be so jealous for
the honor o. Christ and His church
that he shall dishonor both by avoid
ing them.

Mae.uley's Love for Books.

I am always glad to make my little
girl happy, and nothing pleases me so
much as to see that she likes books,
for when she is as old as am she will
find ot> that they are better than all
the tarts and cakes, toys and plays
and sights in the world, once wrote
Macauley, the famous English writer.
If any one would make me the greatest
king that ever lived, with palaces and
gardens and fine dinners and wines,
and coaches, and beautiful clothes, and
hundreds of servants, on condition that
/ should not read books, would not be
a kins. would rather be a poor man
in a garret with plenty of books, than
q king who did not love reading.
