ENDEAVOR,
A PERFECT CHILD.
June IL. Luke 2: 1852.

There are few passages in the g0s-
pels that bear such marks of authorii y
| as this. A writer Of fiction could never
have imagined such boyhOod. OF the
boyhood we know but one fact and have
but one sentence. We see Christ in the
! temple ct twelve. We hear that che
was subject to his parents in oil
things"
To the Jewish boy the age OF twelve
was q very critical time, It was the
age, according to legend. when Moses
had Let the home OF Pharosh's daugh-
ter. 1t was the age when Samuel
heard the voice summoning him to the
prophetic Office. It was the age when
Solomon had given the first Judgment
that revealed his wisdom. At this age,
too, the Jewish boy became "Son OF
the Law" The time was an important
one in the education. He then b gan
the study Of the Talmud.
To our Lord this visit to Jerus lem
must have been one Of grea: meaning.
Perhaps it was his first visit to the city.
Brought up as he had been, with all
the Jewish traditions and pride, his
heart must have had rare pleasure in
beholding the city OF Jerusalem Tor
the first time. Then, too, it was the
great Passover feast. The city would
be thronged with people from al lands.
And he Was one Of those to be present
Of the festival.
But underneath it all was o burning
thought. "Wist re not that must be
about my Fathers businessi" They
must know that where his Fathers
affairs are to be carried on there will the
Son be found.
What then is the lesson OF all this
settingi Certainly there are some clear
truths to come to us. First Of oil Jesus
childhood shows TO children what they
should strive to be-strong, active.
healthy. vigorous in mind, increasing in
wisdom, devoutly religious, obedient to
parents, receiving favor with God and
with men.
We ought to have an early concep.
zion Of the. things that we may do for
God. Be about the Fathers business.
A.child can do for more than is imsgin.
ed. How many q heart IL softened by
the. word and deed Of a child! Note
that when Jesus was found he was in |
the temple: The places that man
seeks are the indexes OF his life, For
he seeks what he likes. Note the con-
d.ion Of life in Nazareth and see how
Christ grew up in its midst like rare
and sweet flower amid the river ooze.
The contrast is vivid.

A LAND OF EMPTY PRISONS.

A French paper is authority for the
statement that there is q district IN
Switzerland, with a population OF ten
thousand, whose prisons are empty,
and which have white flags floating
over them in token OF that fact, In
these days when in 80 many places
prisons are filed to. overlooking il is
cheering 70 find spot where condit-
ions are so radically different. States
men, political economists and social re-
formers would do well to investigate

SUCCESSFUL COUNTRY BOYS.


The city boy wsuld, on first thought
seem to be likely to develop mucn
greater mental ability, and to take
higher place in the world than the cou
try boy The city schools and teach
ings are imagined to be the best, the
mental activity in every direction
develops precocity, and contact wit;
all classes and conditions of people l.
supposed to give ease in dealing wit
men, as well ss ease Of personal bear
ing. When the city boy goes into tie
country, he is apt to convey to Others
his consciousness Of superior advan-
tages. How far is it true that cry
boys are superior to country boyss
New York is the great city OF the
United States. "Where do our big
men come FRONT" asks the New York
Tribune, and it answers, in . sentence:
"Ten out Of every dozen are born out
ofNew York, and eight out Of the ten
were from the rural districts"
A very natural reflection upon these
facts is the attractiveness Of the great
metropolis to men Of ability far an
near, although, to estimate that fairly.
one should also have lists Of New York
States great men who preferred to re-
side away from the great city, on the
farm or ia town.
We may fairly draw this conclusion
for the country boys encouragement,
that by proper use Of his opportuni-
ties, by industry, push, indomitabls
perseverance, purpose. he need not. in
the long run. fear to compete with
boys brought up with met opolitan
advantages. Parsnts. teachsrs.all who
