BELIEVERS IN PRAYER
The strongest believers in prayer are
not those who think some outward
blessing has come to them in answer
to their duplication, but those VINO
have felt its power in temptation, It's
ment, it's Inspiration when striving for
higher ideals of life and duty, and We
must think that 1T belongs essentially
to spiritual things, the life we share
with the spirit. Here its effects and
results are not exceptional, not an oc-
casional incident that may be doubted
or explained away, but an experience
within the reach of any one who Will
put 1t to the test. And, after all. is not
this the supreme test of the value and
use of prayer? Not that 1t has some
times healed the sick, been the means
of help in danger or brought an op-
portunity, but that it actually nour-
ishes and strengthens all that is best
and sweetest and most godlike in the
soul-Rev. Alexander T. Bowser, Uni
tartan, Atlanta, Ca.
RIGHT. USE OF MONEY.
If the history of every dollar as laid
aside by some men could be known
and stamped upon the coin, I'm afraid
be ashamed to look their gold and sill
yer in the face. What If the same
could speak? Alas, there would be in
many places Of business and in not a
few homes an awful confusion of
tongues. The deceit, the intrigue; the
collision of some who call themselves
gentlemen 1 fear would be sadly
disclosed IL the real facts were known
as regards the manner in which they
carry on their business. The unsus-
pecting, the honest and the innocent
are often f1eeced and robbed because
of their very honesty by those who are
dishonest. But there is another fact
to be learned, and that is, God will
make the final adjustment. 1t is true
that sometimes men are SO wronged
and betrayed and deceived that they
almost lose faith in all humanity,
scarcely knowing whom they can trust.
But, says the psalmist, BE not afraid
when one is made rich" Ill gotten
gains are never well gotten and sooner
or later will prove a milestone about
the neck of the possessors.-Rev. DR..

The Cannon Ball Tree.

Among the plants of Guinea one
Of the most curious is the cannon
ball tree. 1t grows to the height
of sixty feet, and its flowers are re-
markable not only for their beauty,
but also for their fragrance. Its
blossoms are of beautiful crimson,
appearing in.large punches and ex-
haling a rich perfume. The fruit
resembles enormous cannon balls !;
hence the name. However, some
say it has been so called because of
the noise which the balls make in
bursting. From the shells domestic
utensils are made, and from the
contents are obtained several kinds
of acids, sugar and gum as well as
the materials for making an excel
lent drink in sickness.

character that her pupils regarded

ed intellect and she had the rare fac

earnestness of her being, and with
marked success. To the children OF
the school her death is a direct and
irreparable loss. No doubt there are
other teachers her equal, but not ore
can fill every nook and Granny of the
field she occupied. The children
will sadly miss her.
Those at her home miss her too,
and that with a desolation others
cannot conceive. The mother of the
house was taken away many years
ago, but this daughter remained
until now, the good right hand of

Miss Morris was a Christian, of
this there is no doubt here. Her re.
ligion was not blazoned by phylacte-
ries nor proclaimed upon the streets;
it was not made known by proclama-
ton nor by aims in public places;
but being her self, hel very life, no
one asked the question, tut all felt
it; all knew it. By subtility, a
strange magic, her very being pro-
claimed the God she served. No
breath of scandal ever touched her:
no whisper Of evil ever went abroad
of her. Against her even the spite
of yenomous women was never dl-
rected, and with her name the most
irrepressible gossip never dealt.
Wherever she moved it was among
uncovered heads, for in her presence
the most uncouth boor became a
gentleman. If ever divinity shone
forth in human fern, it was here.
If God ever made the form of hu-
manity to shine forth with the splen-
dor and inspiration of immortality:
surely it was here. Her life was a
sweet benediction, and her going
forth the entrance of a redeemed into
the land that flows with milk and
honey. If there be anything of
truth; if there be aught of the
Christian religion, then is she with
the blest. There are those who still
question, "Shall the dead live again?
To these the answer is,
81 do believe that just the same sweet
face,
But glorifed, is waiting in the place
Where we shall meet, if only
l am counted worthy in that by and
