your earthly existence you will never
be brought nearer to Jesus than now
by any plea. 1t is not myself that begs
you to give your heart to the Master.
1t is the object lessons which are be-
fore you this children's day of your
own little ones commngling in yonder
classes.
A beautiful incident lately recounted
in the German papers sets forth in
strongest terms what the parental love
might not only be in the hovel, but
also in the palace. Emperor William
ii. was inspecting some of the famous
Industrial establishments of his king
dom. In one the most expensive kind
of thin lace dresses were being made.
The proprietors, desiring to give the
emperor present in recognition of the
honor his visit had conferred upon
them, wished to send the empress one
of the most delicate and expensive of
gowns. The emperor looked at 1t a
moment and then laughed. "Oh." he
said. that gown is not appropriate for
my wife. 1t Is too thin and delicate.
1t would not last day. My wife new
er moves unless she has two or three
babies pulling at her skirts, and they
would tear that gauze all TO pieces"
Beautiful picture that! And yet it Is
the picture which is seen in every true
parents life. We always should have
our babies hanging upon us. And the
way we 20 into the kingdom OF Jesus
Christ will often decide the way our
children will follow. Fathers and
mothers, will you start for heaven to-
day as grand climax to this chill
drcn's day festival? Standing amid
this beautiful human flower garden Of
little children, | have one more word
to speak | congratulate this church
because it places its chief emphasis In
the place where it belongs. Next to
the prayer meeting the most important
Of services is the Sunday school ses-
sion. May God bless the Sunday school
superintendcnts of America. May God
bless the teachers and the other Sun
day school officers. May God bless
the scholars, and may every Sabbath
be a children's day. No Sunday should
be allowed to pass in any Christian
church without some boy and some
girl being led to seek Jesus Christ the
one who always has loved and always
will lovo littlp children

Some flowers appear to change their
scents at different times. The COM
mon jasmine flowers when first
opened have delicate. fresh perfume
which, after a time. becomes grosser
and attracts bluebottle flies. Flowers
of the orchid Odontoglossum hebraicum
have a cinnamon fragrance and haw-
thorn scent at different periods of their

Parental Love.

=
Having talked perhaps already far
too long to the children, would like tc
speak a few words in closing directly
to the parents and the grown up people
here assembled. Fathers and mothers,
are you to let an opportunity for your
own salvation like this 20 umiSS! When
your little children are ready to sur
render their hearts to Christ. are you
not willing to consecratc your lives tc
his service as never before! You know
that the strongest ties we have on
earth are those which bind us TO our
children. Are we to be a spiritual
stumbling block in their way? | never
realized how much our children were TO
us until an incident which occurred
some years ago when | was passing
through one Of the greatest crises Of
my life. was preaching at that time
in the city Of Pittsburg. 1t was hot
July night. Just before | arose to give
out my text a telegram was handed to
me from my brOther-in-law 1t had
these fatal words upon it: Come at
once. Your mother is dying" took
out my watch and found that the even
ing train had already left. The next
did not go until o'clOc': in the morn
ing l pulled myself together and went
on and preached my sermon. All that
night | walked the floor. Then, with
my wife and two little girls, both under
three years of age, we went to the
depot. In the journey to New YORK the
train was delayed six hours.
When we entered the Philadelphia
depot the milk had sOured and both
babies were sick, and they had nothing
to eat | went to the conductor in my
difficulty. He was a rough, brusque
man. | said to him: Can you hold
this train for five minutes! My pa
bies are sick, the milk is soured and
they must have something to eat. My
mother is dying, and ] must go on
He looked at me and said: NO, sir l

dent of the United States. We are
five hours late. ana l WOulu De us

though he had been struck a heavy
blow. He drew a long breath. Then

all that for his little girls sake, will

Americn's Largest Snake.

The largest American serpent is the
anaconda, which may attain length
Of thirty feet. 1t inhabits tropical
America and is a handsome animal,
with dark round spots scattered over
its whole body on a groundwork Of
rich brown. 1t is very fond of water
and haunts the banks of rivers, lakes
and streams, there lying in wait for
any deer or peccary which may come
to the margin of the water to drink.

The Life That CounEs.

The life that counts is a life on high
level. yet full of helpful healing sympathy
for all life on its lowest levels. It is the
first debt which we owe to our fellow, men
in this age. The man who has faith ac'
cepts the uncertainty of life as the conse-
quence of its larger significance; he can
not interpret it, because it means so much;
he cannot trace its lines through to the
end. because it has no end: it runs into
Gods eternity. Something better is COM
ing out of it than worldly fame or wealth
or power. He is no. making himself. God
is making him, and that after a model
which eye hath not seen. He can toll
away at his work, not knowing whether
he is to see its results now or not, but
knowing that God will not lot it be
wasted. There is satisfaction in being
appreciated, in feeling that others ac,:
knowledge our worth or our power, and
in gaining that praise from the world that
is food to so many of US. But the man
or woman whose lives are not on the high
est plane are those who take Ut. their bur-
dens without finching. or without pros
pect of reward, who do not look for the
plaudits of pit and gallery; are uncon-
cerned as to the audience so long as they
play their part well, and in faith and
patience, live the life where they belong
even though their heavens fail.-Annie L.

Monkey Rides in Engine Cab.

When Engine No. %26 Of the New
York Central went into the freight
yards at Tarrytown one night last
week a strange face peered out of the
cab window. The train carried some
animals belonging to the Boston show.
When it stopped at way station 4
few miles above Tarrytown, Admiral
Farragut, one Of the largest monkeys,
escaned. When the train started, the
monkey made quick scramble for the
front car, when the glow of the fire
in the cab Of the locomotive appealed
to him. The Admiral made his way
over the tender and entered the cab,
to the surprise of Engine Driver Ed
wards and Fireman Martin Kelly.
He was made comfortable and allowed
to continue his ride to Tarrytown.
where one Of the keepers took him in
charge.-New York Times.

Scattering Blessings.

There are men we always like to meet
because they always have, have KIN KIND ~ word ora
say hateful things, because they forgive
and forget. and because they always throw
oil on troubled waters. 1t is our business
to refresh and cheer, to perform angel
ministries, to reach out the helping, hand,
to get under burdens. to aSsuage sorrow,
to do nameless acts Of kindness and love
to conciliate instead of tearing open
wounds. to heal instead of wound, to play
on heartstrings with the soft, tender touch.
Of the skillful harpist, to give the cup Of
cold water. to lift out OF the. slough OF
the wayside. Thus our very soul will be-
come fountain OF life and JOY and glad.
ness, will become more and more the doml-
nant mood of our life.
Life is a constant giving out. Like the
flower it emits fragrance: Like the sun

ding blessings around, ditfusing light, like
an oasis in a desert. refreshing weary
lives.-Rev. A. c. Welch.

The "Weeping Willow" Song.

Some people have heard of the ballad
containing the words "I'll hang my harp
on a weeping willow tree" but perhaps it
is not generally known that the author was
a Young man who fell desperately in love
with Queen Victoria, at that time a girl
of seventeen. This young lover was heir
to baronetcy; but baronets cannot APP
proach royalty in the guise of suitor,
though it took some time before the ro'
mantle young man could be brought to
understand this fact. When at last he did
so he sat down in despair and wrote the
now well-known ballad, which was at that
time published in London paper, and
tnen he emigrated to Australia. --.-,
