life than he was. Now that the cookies of his heart had been warmed up, he was most interesting, indeed. In one engagement he had had a hand to-hand conflict with one of the enemy, which had been ended by his plunging his bayonet through the breast of his opponent. The life-blood had spurted out of the victims mouth into the very face of the victor, and the terrible coughing sob which had e.aded the life was described in such a way as 10 chill the hearers.
 At another time, the veteran said, be- coming separated in some way from his command, he had been charged by one of the enemy on coal-black steed. The rider made at him, saber uplifted. to cut him down as he ran. Unarmed, panic-striclSen, alone, with naught to depend on, it seemed as if his time had certainly come. Fleeing blindlv away from the approaching death, with the roar of the snorting steed in his ears, and imagining he felt the steam from the nostrils on his bare neck, he lad almost caught the sweep of the de- scending sword. The veteran was in a terrible plight. A second had passed, when a shot was heard, a cheer, and something instinctively told him to look around. Turning his head in an agony of fear, the veteran had seen his pursuer tumble from his horse head- long, with bullet in his brain.
 "That was close shave, boys," the veteran said. "It didn't come as near making me leave the army. though, as something else did. I'll tell you how it was.'
 The little group of listeners felt that the most thrilling story of all was now to be related, and drew closer to the story-teller.
 q was on guard duty one night. had been detailed to watch the river bank, with several others. Patrolling up and down, we had heard the sound of nuffied oars. and overhanled the per sons in the boat, and the contents. when they reached shore.
 sIt was a cold winter night. just the times a drop of the creature would have done the most good. That boat was loaded with jugs of whisky, some of the finest I ever smelt. The owner had kept it for ten years or more, and thought he was moving to safe place. Strict orders had been issued on the subject of liquor, and we had to do our duty.
 "It almost broke my heart to see that liquor spilled on the ground. and never before realized so strongly the awful deprivatione of soldier life. I tell ye l came near deserting.'
 There was q long silence, broken by one of the party remarking: aWar is indeed terribss things.,s sIt's ti1ues of peace, now, b0ys, the E11A pete,ss.ss rem 3 F int was taken .s...sil m fa tssH fstss

Anoment ts take up his ,,ace he can becif, to deal

justly. to love mercy, to walk humbly with his God. He can put before him. self tthe reward of self-sacrifice, can strive for it and enjoy it. Every day he will find as many opportunities as he can meet. In his home, his neighbor- hood. his business, he will face the whole world, and by the simple exercise of the spirit of Christ in him he can in spire and lift up the world He can make the sacrifice of the Son of God his own, and can share in it's sufferings and.sits joy. It is a daily experience. In his mistakes he can learn patience with others In his triumphs he can assume the approval of God.
 The common man who does these things is not common in Gods sight. He is not alarmed when the perils of society, seething with it's sins, are held up before him, for he is doing his part in his little corner of the world to avert these perils, and he knows that there are many others doing likewise. He knows, too, that each one, like him- self, has God for his partner, and in such . partnership he does not expect to fail. His daily life may be humble and un- known. But the Almighty One has ac- cepted it as an instrument for trans forming the world into the kingdom of God. and he rejoices in its strength and in it's results, which are sure. e.-Congre- gationalist.

 When the mists Of pain are thickest And the storm is at is height, When, bewildered and affrighted' We stumble without light, When the old props faint and rail us And the old hopes fade and flee, o Lord. most kind, most pitlful, Whom have we left but Thee! When youth and beauty in their prime Are withercd at a breath, When the very, fife of life is quenr seu By the chill hand cf Death, When the leafage we call happiness Is stripped off utterly, o Lord the Lord who changest not Whom may we trust save Thee? What can we do but Tighten Our haif-despairing hold Upon Thy sure and stesdfast word, Thy. seamless garments fold? Anchor of drifting. struggling hearts, Sore vexed by wind or sea, o Lord the cvcrlas ting Lord, Our only hope is Thee! Through blackest night, mid widest wave In heights and depths unknown, We stay us on that faithfulness Which never failed It's own. Beaten and blown, and buffeted, And long the way may be, But blessed the way, o plying Lord! If but it ends in Thee.
