 Now, compare some of these goings out of life with the departure of men and women who in the drama of life take the part that God assigned them and then went away honored of men and applauded of the Lord Almighty. It is about 50 years aga that in com- paratively small apartment of the city a newly married pair set up home The first guest invited to that residence was the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Bi- ble given the bride on the day of her espousal was the guide of that house. hold. Days of sunshine were followed by days of shadow. Did you ever know home that for 50 years had no vicis- situde? The young woman who left her fathers house for her young husband s home started out with parental bene- diction and good advice she will never forget. Her mother said to her the day before the marriage: "Now, my child, you are going away from us. Of course, as long as your father and I live you will feel that you can come to us at any time. But your home will be elsewhere. From long experience find it is best to serve God. It is very bright with you now, my child, and you may think you can get along without religion, but the day will come when you will want God, and my advice is, establish fam fly altar, and, if need be, conduct the worship yourself. !" The counsel was taken, and that young wife consecrated every room in the house to God.
 Years passed on and there were in that home hilarities, but they were good and healthful, and sorrows, but they were comforted. Marriages as bright as orange blossoms could make them, and burials in which all hearts were riven. They have family lot in the cemetery. but all the place is illuminated with stories of resurrection and reunion. The

 Many also make "a failure in the drama of life through indolence. They are always making calculations how little they can do for the compensations they get. There are more lazy ministers, lawyers, doctors, merchants, artists and farmers than have ever been counted upon. The community is full of lag gards and shirkers I can tell 1t from the way they crawl along the street, from their tardiness in meeting engage ments, from the lethargies that seem to hang to the foot when they lift it, to the hand when they put it out, to the words when they speak.

The one is ever and anon in the afternoon looking at his watch to see if it is not most time to shut up. The other stays half an hour after he might go, and when asked why, says he wanted to look over some entries he had made to be sure he was right, or to put up some goods that had been left out of place. The one is very touchy about doing work not exactly belonging to him. The other is glad to help the other clerks in their work.

We defy the State Gazette to
