THE TRUE CHRISTIAN.
The true Christian is the one who
carries the light into darkened homes
and is so careful of the. light that he
orget himself. He seeks not his own
but another's welfare. He brings the
gospel. He lives the gospel. He is the
gospel. He exalts the Christ, who him.
self bore our griefs and carried our sor-
rows. He is a witness for him. He les
titles the gospel Of the grace of God"
He knows the result is certain and his
personal reward is sure. He works
and waits for that most desired of all
concentrations, the well done, thou
good and faithful servant; enter thou
into the JOY OF thy Lord" May this be
said to every one of us.-ReV. DR.. Rob-

The biography of Florence Nightingale
which The Macmillan company are about
to publish was begun long ago by Miss
Tooley with the object of marking the ju-
bilee of the illustrious heroine, whose
name has come to stand for everything
that means humanity as opposed to bar
barism. Late in 1854 she leTt London with
a band OF thirty-eight nurses for service
in the Crimean war, and her heroic la
bors have made her name a household
word throughout the English-speaking
world. This biography describes at length
her work in the hospitals, and also details
the story of her life and friendships, her
work for the soldier after his return, and
her literary activities.
