er that will not take her grief
stricken son or daughter to Ter
bosom and speak loving words
of comfort to them. A boy may
wander away from home, become
dissipated and wear tattered
garments and become so low that
he has no friends or home. Let
that dear old mother, who has
spent so many .sleepless nights
praying for her hayward boy,
find him in this ruined condition.
She will clasp him in, her arms and
thank God that the lost is found,
and will still love him, though he
has been ever so low and de-
graded. Love is Of God. Love is
benevolence and charity. God
first loved us and sent his Son to
be the Precipitation for our sins.
T'is better to have loved and lost
than never loved at all-but let
us all continue to love God and
worship him.

American Method the Best.

Germans are adopting American ma
chinery for their manufactures and
American ideas as well. The English
manufacturer proclaims boldly-prob-
ably for the effect il may have upon
his workmen-that if he cannot adopt
American machinery and methods in
Great Britain he will have to shut up
shop. The German and English may
be able to compete with each other
with the aid of American machinery,
and they may be able to excel all the
world save this great country from
which they are drawing new inspira-
tions. But they cannot go the Amer
lean pace. Having caught up with
them We will pass them-distance
them, perhaps-for in all the world
there is no such combination OF ex-
cellence as in these United States OF

WISE WORDS.

The head is more skeptic than the
heart.
Salvation is more than moral refor-
nation.
The pruned limb is seldom the one
that dies.
He insults his nobler self, who mocks
at prayer.
Only the boor thinks it unmanly to
say ''thank you"
If our eyes were brighter, the stars
would be brighter.
Utilize even the thorns in your path,
but not for apillow.
A wise mans mistakes are the capi-
tai Of his experience.
Disposition is the mint that coins
our comforts or their counterfeits.
Monopoly throws gold dust in the
eyes of politicians, to blind them.
"To err is human" That is sound
doctrine; nor is it hard to live up to.
Some people are baptized simply to
hear the world say, so, how pious"
Any demagogue can talk patriotism,
but it takes a man to live it and vote
it.
The greatest deeds are done by those
who are the least conscious that they
are great.

as he has opportunity will be busy
every day.
