Reginald. s years old, has lately be-
gun to attend Sunday school. Thus
far his education has been along Glib
eral' lines and has included more hui
morous nursery rhymes than Scripture,
but now he is being taught something
of the Bible. The lesson last Sunday
was on Inc food and the landing of the
ark. 10 prepare him for his appear
ance at Sunday school his sister Con-
stania. aged Is. drilled Reginald a lit
tie. and to make it interesting she gave
him all the poetry and stories about
the ark that she could think of.
At the Sunday school the teacher
seemed pleased with Reginald's inter-
est i'll the subject. and she asked him:
what verse in the chapter about the
food did yau like best, Reginald?"
And he answered confidently and
loudly:
"He drove the animals two by two,
The el-ce-phant and the kangaroo!
After his recollection Of the Scripture
of this passage the teacher told how
the animals on the ark included all the
known existing species. Reginald has
very fair knowledge of geography,
and he promptly put this question to
the teacher:
How did the Rocky mountain goat
get on the arkY'
The question remains unanswered

INFLUENCE OF A GOOD LIFE.


S. W. H.. in the Presbyterian.
Influence has been likened to the
effect produced by pebble thrown
into body OF water, whose ever wild
ening moves every particle in the
great mass. 1t has been compared to
the dew, appearing silently, imper-
ceptibly, yet accomplishing such ben
eficent results. Can anything mate
rial give an adequate idea OF that
which is SO ethereal, so impalpable as
the influence OF one personality upon
another.
What is that which we call person
ality, that subtle union Of qualities
that makes the human soul? 1t is not
intelligence that illuminates, but does
not warm; IT is not affection that
moves and cheers, but fails to en-
lighten; it is not the moral senti.
ments, but combination Of all. 1t is
that which we feel when we come into
the presence OF a friend, which we
think of when the image of that friend
appears to us. But who has words to
describe the soul? Only spirit can
apprehend spirit. ... ..
The witty but superficial lngersoll
said that il he had been the creator of
the world he would have made health
contagious, not disease Is it not?
And not alone health OF body, but all
the higher qualities Of mind and
heart. Nobility inspires nobility in
Others. Purity makes founess stink
away TO its native habitat. Patient
endurance Of pain or misfortune helps
another to bear cheerfully his weary
load. We are just beginning to get
away from our grossly material views
Of life AMI to realize in some faint de-
gree how strong is the influence Of
spirit upon spirit. Well has the poet
said
"No life can be pure in its purpose and
strong in its strife, 'ni
And all life not be purer and stronger
" thereby" .'al1 .IH a.. -rT
Influence begins in the small cen
ter Of home life. but can no more be
bounded by these narrow limits than
the oak can be held in by the tiny
acorn cup; it extends into social, busi
ness, church life, and thus in ever en-
larging and widening circles touches
and changes the great world. .....
"Earth gets its price for what earth
gives us. ......
II is heaven alone that is given away,
1t is only God that canbe had for the
asking"
So it is the highest in every being
those enduring, priceless qualities of
mind and soul that ally one to the d.
vine, and make him truly a son OF the
highest - it is these that flow out
spontaneously and affect unconscious
ly those about him. A good life places
itself on the side of those forces which
are permanent and abiding 10 the uni
verse and share of their immortality.
Faith looks with steady, unfaltering
unfaltering gaze across the narrow
gulf that separates the visible from
the unseen world. and reads words
stronger and more wonderful than
man would ever dare to utter, prom
lSc that God will ultill, "They that be
wise shall shine as the brightness of
the armament, and they that turn
many to righteousness as the stars for
ever and ever
