Baptism of Pain.

Over Over aaiaada aaiaada ever again again the the ED truth
comes back to us, that no man is good
for much till he has suffered great
sorrow. The baptism Of pain is one Of
the instrumentalities which God uses
for purging away the dross of our ma
lures and making us fit to be partakers
Of the inheritance of the saints in light.
Not those who have escaped the fiery
trial. but those who have gone through
1t and come out unhurt and glorified
are to be envied. God knows what is
best for us. Therefore he sends first
one affliction and then another upon us
Sometimes, because he sees 1t to be nee
essary, he lifts the very doodgates and
allows wave after wave of misfortune
to sweep over us. If we have the right
stuff in us, we shall be helped and not
harmed by these seeming calamities. =

wolves, and Sleeps, Clothing

Moral evil never dares be itself. It al
ways seeks to take on the garb of vir-
tue. Wickedness is naturally timid. It
skulks and hides itself, loving darkness
rather than light. Evil is ashamed of
itself except in the most depraved ma
lures, and, where 1t ceases to feel
shame, the fact is commonly due to its
having found an environment in which
there is nothing to rebuke It, How
commonly do the wolves of greed and
cruelty put on Sleeps clothingl How
natural for satan to fashion himself
into an angel of light School

"One thing needful. ;

& Zone thing needful "
The home in Bethany was con-
genialsresting place for Jesus when He
was in the vicinity of Jerusalem.
Martha seems to have been the recog-
nized head of the little family group.
Perhaps she was the eldest. The coming
of Jesus caused much extra work, and
Martha was perplexed by the cares OF
the household.
Mary realized, perhaps more deeply
than any one else, the true mission OF
the Master and entered most deeply in
to the spirit of the coming kingdom OF
God. To her every word Of the Christ
was precious, and, as the opportunities
to see and hear Him were so few and
short, she must be with Him every
moment possible. She would not neg
lect needful care for food and His bodi-
" comfort, but she entered SO fully in
to His own spirit that those things took
second place. To hear Him talk of the
things Of the spirit life was the one
thing mcst essential.
So is it ever in this life. The bodily
needs, the cares of the home. the pres
sure Of business, social duties, all the
multitudinous details Of living absorb
so much Of time and energy and
thought that we grow harassed, bur-
dened. numbered with much serving.
We almost forget that Jesus is here, il
our guest, is talking, is telling OF
things no one ever before revealed, nc
one else can reveal All our future life
happiness is bound up in His teaching.
What pity we can't stop fretting
about things to eat and feed on His
words iittlel
It is grand to do much serving for
Jesus sake. Talking, praying, giving,
singing and all the rest. But it is bet
ter to stop it all. once in awhile, and
sit down in quietness at His feet and
listen. Other things are good, this one
is needful.

The great Indianapolis gathering Ia
over. The immense throngs, the inspir-

addresses and prayers; the excitement,
the enthusiasm of the hour, the delight
full social associations, the strange, new
scenes Of the trip, the new acquaint-
anceships, have all had their effect.
Tens Of thousands return home changed
In many things from what they were a
fortnight since. Life is larger, fuller,
richer, more intense and deeper.
Reaction from fatigue will be felt
both In body and mind. Beware lest it
be snare to the soul. Slow down the
speed, but keep fast hold of all the good
gained.
After the convention-what7 Higher
ideals of science, of duty, of privilege.
Deeper conservation of soul and body.
More watchfulness, more freedom.

Jesus. More loyalty to the church, elazEehh,

Do You Go to Churchf

Of course every Christian does and

they go to some service. Perhaps it is

it is to the preaching service OCCASION

no settled habit of attending public
worship. The morning service has no
special attraction. Hard work all the

never enter its doors.
How many church members are

Better change the programme. Stop

Nothing you can do on Sunday will SO

NEW MINING DISTRICTS.

THE enormous increase of capital, with the enter
prise, the speculation and the general business
developments that have indeliby stamped the
last half of the nnteenth century, is mainly due to the
simultaneous discovery of gold in California and in
Australia, followed by minor but important disclos-
OF the existence of the precious metal in parts
OF the world in which it had been previously
known. For the last few years, after temporary
stagnaton and if providentsly to meet the argu-
ments in favor of debased currency, the output of
gold in every quarter OF the globe has swelled to
almost unprecedented proportions. Colorado and
South Africa separated examples OF this marvellous
increase in production.
The interests of the Pacific Coast and of California
in particular intimately connected with gold min
ing and every new and genuine discovery is impor-
tant It is, however, fact proved by experience in
this State and elsewhere this during the last
fifty years, that each mining district produces
intoerabe hardships, aggravated by frauds The Fra
ser River excitement of 1859 will quickly recur to old
Californians striking illustration, often repeated,
of the truth of this proposition.
There is a gambling element in our population rep
resentative of speculative heartessness and skilled in
all the seductive that old prospectors the hand
to mouth miners learn to resist, that exagger
aes the merits of every place where gold is found
and the distant it is the greater the exaggera-

fraudulent enterprises is rapid, and while runous

comparatively small But there some instances in
