Our Infirmities.

Never do we feel them more than
at the hour Of prayer Sometimes, our
thoughts scatter like a flock Of sheep,
Or flag and faint before the spiritual
effort OF stirring ourselves up to take
hold on God. Who does not have

similitude) prayer is like the rising OF
lark against the east wind? We
even tire in maintaining the attitude
Of devotion and how much more in

for; we are ignorant Of the best argu.
ments to employ; We ask amiss; we
cannot keep in the perpetual spirit
and temper of devotion; we lack that
calm faith which can leave its bur
den at the mercy seat, and be at rest
In all this the Spirit helpeth US He
"helpeth our infrmities." Knowing
the mind of God, He is aware of those
things which it will please our Father

waiting for us to ask them at His
Hand. These he suggests to us; for
these He excites strong and passion.

leads us to pour out our souls in i'm.

When next you are sensible Of a

heart. bearing you forward on its
bosom toward God, yield TO It, let Il
have its blessed way with you
Though there be almost pain in the
unutterable passion of desire. dare not
to restrain it; for the Holy Spirit Is
then taking YOU up into the purposes
Of Cod and is leading you to ask
those things which lie near His heart.
and which brood over you as clouds OF
blessing ready to break. This is true

His wonder.

Mr.. Wardwell conceived the idea
not long ago that it would be fine
thing to take his little son away from
the fiat country in which he had al
ways lived and show him some Of the
wonder works Of nature. According
ly arrangements were made for trip
to Wyoming, and there father and son
went into camp hard by the foothills
of the great mountains.
It was on the morning after their
arrival that little Edward, who had,
owing to his natural tendency to frail-
ness, been pretty well drilled in the
use of dumb-bells, looked out at the
high quartz cliffs and was filed with
wonder. For a long time he stood
mute and feasted his eyes on the
cliffs, the like of which he had never
dreamed of. At last he turned to his
father, asking
How did they get there?"
Mr. Wardwell was busy getting their
breakfast, and his eyes were filed
with smoke, which fact may have
been accountable for his unwilling
ness to enter into a scientific dis
course upon geological formations. In
any event, he resorted to the simple
explanation that God put them there.
Little Edward looked again at the
great cliffs, then he turned his eyes
upon the dumb-bells that lay at his
feet, and, drawing a deep sigh, said:
Gee, but God must take lot Of

costumer a Benefactor.

Lillian Russell, the stage beauty,
was at the Saratoga races the other
day, wearing hat and a mass OF
wells that completely hid her wonder

sisterly comment on Miss Russell:

remarkably well, being an artist in

pIsastrous Eear Of peetIIence.

There is much truth in the saying
that a pestilence does more harm, in
many cases, by the panic it causes
than by the loss Of life which is its
most alarming effect. Great suffering
comes from the checking Of business
and the lack of employment. A whole
city may be demoralized and SUBJ
jected to losses Of the gravest charac-
ter. But in the long run there is a
very important factor on the other
side. A dreaded pestilence is a warn
ing imperatively needed, it seems, to
force sanitary progress in many cities

Christianity I define to be the sci

which 1t employs are various; but the
end which 1t seeks to definitely name

This is the object. Everything else is
instrumental and relative. It can

which the statements of truth and
the systems OF worship and discipline
