Let no day pass without personal
secret communication with God.
Begin each day by taking counsel
from the Word of God, if but one
verse while you are dressing.
Put away all bitter feelings and
brooding over sights or wrongs, no
matter from whom received.
Have on your heart some person
or cause for which you are pleading
Gods blessings each day.
Let no opportunity pass without
owning your Saviour before others,
and modestly urging all to accept his
service.
Let no opportunity pass to say a
kind word, do some kind deed, or at
least smile upon those you meet.
Do this, not affectedly, but sincerely,
"as unto the Lord"
Guard well the door of your lips,
that no unchaste word, jest, or story,
no SANDER or cutting remarks, no ir-
reverent or untruthful statement
shall pass out.
Remember each day that Christ
will surely come, quickly come; and
it may be that this day will deter
mine how His coming will find us, as
it must to thousands.-OurH Hope

Probably we have all heard OF one
dollar gold pieces with the Lords
Prayer engraved on one side. Sever
al years ago these were worn by
many as watch charms. Occasional
ly even now one may be seen thus
worn. Such minute engraving may
well be considered skillful work.
But recently this has been made to-
seem, at least by comparison, quite
simple matter, because Mr.. VIM. l..
Stuart, a young man engaged in bust
ness in New York City, has perform
ed the seemingly impossible feat OF
engraving the entire Lords Prayer
on the head of an ordinary pin, to
which he has added his name and
the year, making altogether two hun
dred and seventy-six letters and fig
ures.
Mr.. Stuart did the work at odd
times during his regular employment
and with very ordinary tools, which
seemingly are not adapted to such
fine engraving. The pin was set in
block of wood, and a common en-
graver's tool was used. A simple
microscope, costing only about TWEEN
ty-fve cents and known as linen
tester" furnished the necessary mag
nifying.-January st. Nicholas.

Don't Judge a Man by His Clothes.

A man fell down in a fit on Twen-
ty-third street yesterday, says the
New York Star, or rather he did not
fall exactly, as two friends caught
him. He was elegantly dressed, and
was evidently man of wealth. His
friends did not know what to do with
him, and were holding him in an
upright position against an iron
fence. Suddenly a man who looked
like Bowery tough" slipped up to
one of the friends and said, "Why
don't you lay him out on his back
and open his collar?"
But we'd ruin his Clothes" said
his friend. The fellow looked at him
scornfully, and then tore off his
rough pea-jacket and spread it on
the walk The unfortunate man was
laid upon it. When he recovered, the
rough looking fellow picked up his
coat and put it on. One of the sick
mans friends offered him bill,
which he refused disdainfully. AS
he was about to leave 7 walked up
and asked him his name. Never
mind my name. 1 don't want it in
the papers," he said, and forcing his
way through the crowd, disappeared.

The Value of a Peace-Maker in Ma.
tiOnal Life.

When William Penn began his du-
ties as Chief Magistrate, great con-
ference was appointed with the ma
tive chiefs. Penn, accompanied by a
few unarmed Friends, clad In the
simple garb of the Quakers, came to
the appointed spot. The chieftains,
also unarmed, sat in semi-circle on
the ground. Standing before them
and speaking by an interpreter, he
said: ''My friends, we have met on
the broad pathway of good faith. We
are all one flesh and blood. Being
brethren, no advantage shall be TAX
en- on either side. When disputes
arise we will settle them in council
Between us there shall be nothing
but openness and love-" The chiefs
replied: while the rivers run and
the sun shines we will live in peace
with the children of William Penn
No record was made of the treaty, fol
none was needed. It's terms were
written, not on decaying parchment
but on the living hearts of men. Fol-

Had Quite Enough.

A very subdued looking boy of
about twelve years of age, with
long scratch on his nose and an air
of general detection, went to the
master of one of the board schools
and handed him a note from his
mother before taking his seat and
becoming deeply absorbed in book.
The note read as follows:
"Mr. Brown: Please excuse
James for not being present yester-
day. He played trooant, but you
don't need to thrash him for it, as
the boy he played trooant with an
him fell out, an the boy fought him.

not thrash him until next time. He
thinks he better keep in school in flu
ture. ''-London It'd Bits.

Jim Jackson was brought before a
Western judge charged with chicken
stealing. After the evidence was all

they were roosting right under the
owners window and there were two

Sadly thou yielded to the evening

Who were so fair from the first
morning ray;
Goodbye, sweet day!
Goodbye, sweet day, goodbye!
Thy glow and charm, thy smile and

Vanish at last, and solemn night adj

The while l watch thy sunsets

Die in the west beneath the twilight

How a Defeat Was Averted.

In the Burmese War, on one ocCa-
sion, the enemy made surprise at
tack at the British camp. 1t was a
moment of immense peril, for, as
everything seemed to be quiet, multi
tudes of the soldiers were drunk. Sir
Henry Havelock, however, then a
young officer, was an abstainer and a
religious man. He used to gather
his soldiers together in Bible class
"a thing in those days almost un-
heard of. A despairing message
about the expected attack and the
state in which most of the soldiers
we're, was brought to the general in
command. His reply was: "Send
for Havelock; his men are never
drunk, and he is always ready" And
Havelock's sober soldiers repealed the
assault and saved the army from de-
feat and the nation from catastrophe.

Gen. Ian Hamilton's estimate that during his 37 years of army service be has consumed 10, 600 quarts of duti- able liquor has led to many calcula- tions of the amount of money the exchequer might receive under the, proposed budget rate of exercises, says a London dispatch While Gen. Hamilton's total, at first glance, is alarming, the application of arith- metic would show that his average per diem is but a pint and half.
 A moderate thinker of xhiskey it has been estimated, consumes 500 gallons in 40 years. At that rate. this man would add. during his life time aoout sl, s75 to the revenues of Great Britain. Drinkers of vinous or malt beverages it is found, contribute in proportion.
