What scene can De more lovely on
earth, more like the heavenly nome,
and more pleasing to God than that
of a pious family kneeling with one
accord around the home altar, and
uniting in their supplicatious TO their
father in heaven! How sublime the
act Of those parents who thus kneel
and pray for the blessing of God
upon their household. How lovely
the scene of u piOUs mother who
gathers her little ones around her at
the bedside and teaches them the
beauties of prayer! Aid what safe
guard is this devotion agpinst all the
Vaccinations of Satan. 1t gives
tone and intensity to their affections
and sympathies: it throws sunshine
around their hopes and interests; it
increases their happiness. and takes
away the poingnacy Of their grief and
sorrow. 1t availeth much, there
fore for time and eternity Its voice
has sent many poor prodigal home
to his fathers house. Its answer has
often been, "Fhis man was born
there" The child kneeling beside
its pious mother and pouring forth
its innocent prayer to God must
attract the notice of the heavenly
host, and receive into its soul the
power of a new life.

A Selection.
The Statesman does the speaking,
The Editor booms the town,

The jamsel turns him down,
The poet does the dreaming,
The farmer cleans the woods.
The eagle does the screaming,
But the stork delivers the goods.

jewelry was about to depart when Miss
Bilbro awakened and attempted to get
out of bed and give the alarm. The bur.

again. She had gotten out of bed and
was making for the door to another room
when the man noticed her and, turning,
threw a large pine knot at her, which
he had evidently carried with him for
such an emergency.
The knot just missed her head and
struck trunk, causing a racket. which,
together with the ladys screaming,
awoke the household and frightened the
intruder so that he dropped his booty
and fed empty,handed The police were
at once summoned and two of the patrol
men responded, but by the time of their
arrival the would-be burglar had made
good his escape Thus far no clew as
