The Source of Strength.


When the night of the soul came on
and all the denizens of darkness came
riding upon the winds of perdition.
who gave strength to the soul? Who
gave calmness to the heart? Who
broke the spell of Internal enchant-
ment? He who heard the request of
the villagers, Abide with us, for it
is toward evening"" One of the forts
of France was attacked and the out
works were taken before night. The
besieging army lay down, thinking
that there was but little to do in the
morning and that the soldiery in the
fort could be easily made to surrender.
But during the night, through back
stairs, they escaped into the country.
In the morning the besieging army
sprang upon the battlements, but
found that their prey was gone. So
when we are assaulted by temptation,
there is always some secret stair by
which we might get off. God will not
allow us to be tempted above what
We are able, but with every temptation
will bring way of escape that we
may be able to bear it.
The prayer of the text is appropriate
for all who are anticipating sorrow.
The greatest folly that ever grew on
this planet is the tendency to borrow
trouble. But there are times when ap-
preaching sorrow is so evident that
we need to be making especial prepa-
rations for its coming. One of your
children has lately become a favorite.
The cry of that child strikes deeper
into the heart than the cry of all the
others. You think more about it. You
give it more attention not because it
Is any more Of treasure than the
others, but because it is becoming
frail. There is something in the cheek,
in the eye and in the walk that makes
you quite sure that the leaves of the
flower are going to be scattered. The
utmost nursing and medical attend
ance are Intellectual. The pulse be-
comes feeble, the complexion lighter,
the step weaker, the laugh fainter. No
more romping for that one through
hall and parlor The nursery is dark
ened by an approaching calamity. The
heart feels with mournful anticipation
that the sun is going down. Night
speeds on. It is toward evening.

Eggs without shell..

In the report of the trade OF Italy
for the years 1898 and 1899. by sIf
George Bonham, secretary to her ma.
jesiy's embassy at Rome. there Is az

system adopted for the expectation OF

egg white and yolk together-ls pack
ed In alright vessels or drums con-
talning each 1000 eggs. Great care Is
taken TO ensure the eggs being fresh.
and TO exclude the air. as one bad egg
spells all the remainder, and renders
the consignment unstable. The new
system has the advantage OF removing
tho risk OF breakage, and is also pro-
ferred by the pastry cook for whose
use they are Intended. As 10 the eX-
tent OF the trade In eggs, the report
mentions that In 1897 Russia exported
