Good Father for his bountiful sup

his people. How many will call

his loving kindnesses and tender
mercies ? Shall we not go up to
the house of the Lord on that day7
1t is He that hath provided that
hath kept from harm. Rev. Hor-

seek to follow him an hour Thurs

Muscular Christianity.

Prof. Bryce, in his biographical
study of Bishop Fraser, of Manches-

diocese who had knocked "a man down
who had insulted him. The bishop
wrote him a letter Of reproof, point
ing out that exposed as the Church Of
England was to much criticism on all
hands, her ministers ought to be very
careful of their demeanor. The Of
fender replied by saying: Il must re-
gretfully admit that, being grossly
insulted, and forgetting in the heat Of
the moment the critical position of
the Church Of England, did knock
the man down, etc" Fraser was de-
lighted with the turning Of the tables
on himself, and afterward invited the
clergyman to visit him.
