900 other Democrats staid away from

Democratic party in New York, is
strong. but it cannot stand the loss OF

found, and l am hopeful that the
Inecded issue will appear at the right

Judging from what ex-President
Cleveland said at the Reform club din
ner. he is still for war and d6ssension.
! do not agree with Mr.. Cleveland on
this point This is not country that
tolerates feuds. Nothing is 50 dis
astrdus to the health OF a great party
as for one man to become inbued with
the idea that his party must punish
his personal enemies. IL was tried by
Mr Blaine in this state in Judge

servatism is what we need and we

y And guarded from evil and snareH

lave commonplace toiling and play,
when we've worked at the tasks of
the household,
And peace hushed the house day by
days
n.sr Lord, that the terror at midnight,
The weird Of the wind and the fame,
Hath passed by our dwelling, we praise
And lit up u hearts in Thy name;
That the circle Of darlings unbroken
Vet gathers in bliss round the board,
That Commonplace love is our portion,
We give Thee our praises, dear Lord!
Forgive us, who live by Thy bounty,
That often our lives are so bare
of the garlAnds of praise that should
render
All votive and fragrant each prayer.
Dear L ,rd, in the sharpness Of trouble
Wecry from the depths to the thronel
Inthe long days Of giadness and beauty
Take Thou the glad hearts as thine
own.
Ocommon are sunshine and flowers,
And common are raindrops and dew,
And the gay little footsteps Of chill
dren,
And common the love that holds
So, Lord, for our commonplace mer-
That straight from Thy hands are be-
slowed,
We are fain to uplift our thanksgiv-
Take, lord, the long debt we have
owed!

and laid up his riches as if he was
sure of many years. But they never
came to him; for the night on which
he finished the work God demanded
his soul. We are to look forward unto
tomorrow, but with the remember
ance that it's secrets are unknown to
us, and that our lives are dependent
upon God.
2. Postpoing Work.-Since the pres
ent is all that we are sure of, the duty
of to day should never be postponed.
We are summoned to tasks which will
never be done if we do not lay hold Of
them at once. There r opportuni
ties before US to day which We shall
never see again. There are deeds Of
love which we might do to day, whose
value will be lost if we postpone them
till to morrow.
8. Postponing Salvation This ia
the greatest danger that besets men
through bosstfulness of the future;
they postpone the consideration of those
questions which have to do with the
souls salvation. Men shield them
selves from the arrows of the Gospel
truth in various ways; sometimes by
doubts concerning the Bible or the
teachings of the Church; sometimes
by criticisms of the life and character
of protesting Christians; but most often
by saying to themselves, "There is
time enough" They boast themselves
of tomorrow, and the day never
dawns when they are willing to seek
Christ and His salvation.

realize that she was actually free. At
