The Money Making Game.

The first of all English games Is
making money. That is en- all absorb
ing game, and we knock each other
down oftener in playing at that than at
football or any other rougher sport, and
it is absolutely without purpose. No
one who engages heartily in that game
ever knows why. Ask q great money
maker what he wants to do with his
money-he never knows. he doesn't
make it to do anything with it. He gets
it only that he may get it. What will
you make Of what yen have got:' you
ask. well, I'll get more, be says.
Just as at cricket you get more runs.
There's no use in the runs, but to Get
more Of them than other people is the
game. And there's no use in the money,
but to have more Of it than other peo-
pie is the game. So all that great foul
city of London there-rattling, growl-
ing, smoking. stinking-a CHASTITY heap
Of fermentirg 'rickwork, pouring OFT
poison at ever Tore-you fancy it is n
city Of work: t+nt a street Of it. 1t is "
great ci = Of play; very nasty play. and
very hard play, but still play. 1t is
only Lords cricket ground without the
turf-a huge billiard table without tie
clcth, and with pockets as deep as the
bottomless pit, bat mainly q billiard
table after ali.-John kuskin.

Subject, THE Woman of Canaan.'
Matt. Is: 2l-Sl. Golden Text,
"Then she came ard worshipped
Him, saying, Lord. help me-" Matt.
10: %.
Jesus went from Capernaum into
the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and
entered into an house, and would
have no man know it but He could
not be hid For a Syrophenician
woman, whose daughter had de-
mon, heard OF Him, and came and
fell at His feet, and besought Him
that He would cast out the demon.
But He did not answer her, and when
she would not be sent away, He said
to her, at is not meet to take the
children's bread, and to cast it to
dogs" She knew that she was as a
house dog under the table, in the
family of the Jews, or children of
God but her hope was fastened on
the Son OF David, who had said that
God loved the world, and she only
asked what she knew His loving
heart would give. She may have
known the Old Testament story of
her countrywoman, In Zarephath of
Zidon whose meal and oil were In
creascd by miracle of the God of
Israel and whose only son was re-
stored 10 life by Israel's God,
through Elijah's prayer. She sure.
ly knew that she was in need of help
that only One could give.
"Known unto God are all His
works from the beginning of the
world so His compassionate heart
knew just What He was going to do
for this heather woman, and just
how to impress the. lesson of truth.
And when she answered, "Truth,
Lord yet the dogs eat of the
crumbs which fall from their mas.
ters' table, "Jesus answered and
said unto her, o woman great is thy
faith; be IL unto thee even as thou
wilt" And her daughter was heal
ed from that hour.
Then Jesus returned to tie sea OF
Galilee, and healed great multitudes
of those that were lame, blind,
dumb, MANNED, and many others,
SO that the multitude wondered, and
glorified the God of Israel.

THE CONFESSIONAL.

The following took place at an ex-
perience meeting, some years ago, in
a town some fifteen miles from Bos-
ton, and is vouched for as actually
true.
A very pious ~ member of the
church was in the habit OF inviting
some Of his neighbors to accompany
him to these meetings. On one oc-
casion his nearest and most init
mate neighhor went with him to the
meeting. When the time came for
him to give his experience, he got
up and stated to the congregation
that he was great sinner-that he
sinned daily with his eyes open
that he willingly and knowingly sim
ned--that goodness was not in him
that he was absolutely and total.
ly depraved-that nothing but the
boundless mercy and infinite good
ness of God could save him from
eternal damnation. A fter this con-
fession, his neighbor who had acct
dentally been placed upon the "anx-
ious seat" was called upon to re.
count his experience" He arose
with the most imperiurable gravity
and stated that he had very little to
say of himself, but the brethren
would remember that he had lived
for five and twenty years the near
est neighbor of his friend-that he
knew him well-more intimately
perhaps, than any other man--and
that it gave him great pleasure sin
cerely to confirm the truth of all
that his neighbor had confessed OF
himself.
When he had said this and sat
down under the visible smile of the
whole congregation, the parson not
excepted, the pious, but confessing
member went up to him and said
"You are rascal and liar, and
I'll lick you as soon as We get out
of church,
