household words in many places.
Some say foreign missions have had
little success, yet the world today is pre-
dominantly Chrstianized. He paid a
glowing tribute to the missionaries IN
Armenia who had faced death and not
fed. Surrounded by danger, they re-
fused to 90 to places of safety when they
could In speaking of the troubles in
Turkey he said it looked as if the millions
ofdollars spent there had been wasted,
but this is not so, for the missionaries
have endeared themselves to the people
during these trying times and when the
smoke clears away the work will go on
with increased prosperity.
WEDNESDAY.
Wednesday morning session opened
with devotional service led by lavmen,
after which Rev. George p. Byington
read an interesting paper on public
Spirit in follower of Christ" A real
follower of Christ must bepublic spirited.
Iesus suffered all he did because of his
love for others. Every follower OF Christ
must have spirit like this; he must
love his neighbor as himself and remem-
Der that it is better to give than to re-
ceive. Selfshness is foreign to the whole
spirit of the Bible. We should pray
God to make us useful, to do good and
to help Others to a title to that better
place beyond us. Following Mr.. Bying-
tons address an interesting discussion
took place on this subject.
Rev. F. F. Lewis next told about a
christian Endeavor Church, how it
works" In speaking of the Hardwick
Christian Endeavor church, Mr.. Lewis
said it was organized two years ago
last April with a membership OF 81, and
had since more than doubled, being now
A.. The future of the church is very
bright. The church is a new, pretty one,
and was occupied for the first time last
February. 1t is called a Christian En-
deavor church because the Endeavor
pledge is in the church covenant.
Wednesday afternoon an instructive
communion sermon was preached by
Rev. p. b. Fisk, who took for his text
. Cor. IL IS, and his main theme was
that Christians in their devotion and
service are like the incense on the sacri
fee OF Christ. Mr.. Fisk was assisted in
the service by Rev. George Roger
The Lords supper was administered
by Reverends Byington and F. F. Lewis
The next meeting of the conference
will be held at Lyndonville. Officers fol-

children. Do you send them
good news, always? Loo out for the
young man who speaks of his father
as the governor" the squire" or
the "old chap" Look out for the
young woman VIII calls her mother
her maternal ancestor" or the 'oid
woman" 1.-The eye that moclEeth at
his father, and rcfuseth to obey
his mother, the ravens of the
valley shall pick it ont, and the
young eagle shall eat it," God grant
that all these parents may have
the great satisfaction of seeing
their children grow up Christians.
But o the pang of that mother
who, after Il life of street gaddnG, and
gossip-retailing, hanging on her chill
dren the %fripperies and follics of this
world, sees those children tossed out
on the sea of life like foam on
wave, or ponentities in n world where
only brawny and stalwart character
can stand the shockl But blessed he
the mother who looks upon her chill
dren as sons and daughters OF the
Lord Almighty! o, the satisfac-
ton IF Hannah in seeing Samuel
serving at the altar; of NJ other
Eunice in seeing her Timothy
learned in the Scriptures. That is the
mothers recompense; to see children
coming up useful in the world, re-
claiming the lost, healing the sick,
pitying the ignorant, earnest and use
full in every sphere. That throws n
new light back on the old family Bible
whenever she reads il; and that will
be ointment to soothe the aching limbs
of dccrepitude, and light up the clos
ing hours of life's day with the glories
of an autumnal sunset!
There she sits-the old Christian
mother-ripe for Heavcn. Her eye
| sight is almost gone; but the s~plendors
of the celestial city lIindle up her
vision. The gray light of Heavens
morn has struck through the gray
locks which are folded back over the
wrinkled temples. She Stops very
much now under the burden of care
h used to carry for her children.
She sits at home to-day, too old to find
her way to the house of God; but whit
she sits there, all the past comes back.
and the children hat 40 years
aro trooped around her arm chair
with their little gricfs and joys and
sorrows-those children are all gone
now. Some caught up into "A better
realm. where they shall never die, and
others out in the broad world, attesting
the excellency of a Christian mother:
discipline. Her last days are full OF
peace; and calmer and sweeter will hei
spirit become, until the gates of life
shall lift and let the worn-out pilgrim
into eternal s%pringtide and youth
where the limbs never ache, and the
eyes never grow dim, and the staff o
exhausted and decrepit pilgrim shall
Become the palm of the immorta
athlete.
