But so restful will be the last sleep that you will rise from it without one sore nerve, without one tired limb rested, forever rested, as only God can rest you. O ye tired folks all up and down the world-tired with work, or tired with prosecutions, or tired with ailments, or tired with bereave- ments, or tired in the struggle against temptation-clap your hands with eter- nal glee in expectation of that sleep from which you will wake up so rest ed that you will never need another sleep or even another night. There shall be no night there," because there will be no need of its quieting influ- ences. No lengthening of the shadows of tower and wall and gate. No even- ing mist rising from the river. No sundown. "Thy sun shall no more go down, neither shall thy moon with draw itself, for the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended"
 So, my nearer, my reader, Good nightw May God give you such sleep tonight as is best for you, and if you wake too soon may he fill your soul with "reminiscences and expectations that will be better than slumber. Good nightl Having in prayer, kneeling at the bedside, committed yourself and all yours to the keeping of the slumber- less God, fear nothing. The pestilence that walketh in darkness will not cross your doorsill. and you need not be afraid of evil tidings. Good night May you have no such experience as Job had when he said, "Thou scarest me with dreams and terrifest me through visions" If you dream at all, may it be a vision of reunions and con- gratulations, and, waking, may you find some of them true. Good night! And when you come to the best sleep, the blissful sleep. the last sleep, may you be able to turn and say to all the eares and fatigues and bereavements and bangs of a lifetime, Good nightr' and your kindred, standing around your illumined pillow, give you hope full though sorrowful farewell as you move out from their loving embrace Into the bosom of a welcoming God.

Work of Canadian Troops.

The correspondent at Modder River of the London Times, in a dispatch dated Jan. 6, says that news from Belmont shows that the Queensland and Ca nadian contingents have been so ener- getic in that neighborhood that a large belt across the border of the Orange Free State has been deserted by the Boers. This, the correspondent adds, makes it all the more surprising that colonial rebels should have dared to es- tablish a camp within relatively short distance of General Methuen's army. Colonel Pitchers troops completely sack. ed the Boer laager. They destroyed nothing, but removed everything in wag- ons, including the records of the routed commando, which are almost sufficiently complete to betray the political standing of every adult in a mile wide district
