The Schoolboy Brain.

One OF the most substantial and
genuine of delights for those OF hui
morous appreciation consists in a
study of the answer made by school
girls and schoolboys in examination
papers. A writer in Harper's Weekly
has collected a new batch Of these,
of which the following specimens are
among the most choice:
Blood consists of two sorts of
corkscrews-red corkscrews and
white corkscrews."
Asked to explain What a buttress
is. one boy replied: "A woman who
makes butter"
One pupil defined primate as the
wife OF a Prime Minister"
Gravity vas discovered by Isaac
Walton. It is chiefly noticeable in
the autumn. when the APPLE are fall

TO the question, What is a limited
monarchy" This nswer was re-
turned:

ment by a king who, in case of bank
ruptcy, would not be responsible for
the entire national debt. You have
the same thing in private life in

Second.Mile Christians.

Love does not think Of counting
miles. 1t never says, ACan l. stop
here?" Have I not done my share?"
It Is a characteristic of love to be DO
ing always more than is expected OF
required. Love goes the second mile
and counts it not a weary thing to go
10000 more. This is what the re-
ligion of the second mile does for
men. 1t brings heart enlistment. II
causes US to serve not because we
must, but because we will-because
we love and therefore delight to DO
the will of the One we love. Tine
second-mile Christian realizes Christe
love for souls and therefore tries to
win men to Him. The second-mlle
Christian realizes Christ's longing foI
the extension of His Kingdom, n
therefore gladly gives according to
his ability for the spread Of the Cos
pel. Christ's interests become his
interests, Christ's glory his glory,
Christ's cause his cause, under the
sweet compelling restrain of love-

A PRAYER.

God, I pray to Thee for patience when the
world seems all unfair,
When life seems one long injustice, and the
end alone despair;
When I'm weary, oh, so weary, and my
tears bring no relief,
When I question why Thou sendest to hu-
manity such grief; ,
When I ask the use of SORROW, misery and
grinding pain,
What the end is; what the object; what
the meaning; what the gain?
Grant me faith as we'll as patience, and
forgive me when / pray
For some knowledge of the reasons why we
suffer day by day.
Give me strength to keep on working,
cheerfully to do my task.
Give me courage, hope, submission; perfect
Joy I cannot ask.
Teach me how to give to others something
helpful, something true:
How to make my life worth living, how to
start each day anew.
God in Heaven, forgive my failures, and
uphold me with Thy hand.
I am weak, impatient, restless, and ! can.
not understand.
can only hope, believing there are reasons
now unknown,
Which sometime, somewhere We'll master,
as we reap what we have sown.
God, once more l come lmplorlng Thee
with strength to fill my heart,
/ have failed, wilt Thou forgive me, and
Thy love to me impart? .

Trust by Being Thankful.

A great truth Is never effective IN
individual life unless that truth Is
translated into life through the me-
dunn Of experience. One Of the card
inal truths for us who belong to
Christ is that "all things work togeth-
er for good"
Has the truth. been SO verified IN
your experience that you can say with
Orville Dewey. Notwithstanding all
that I have suffered, Notwithstanding
all the pain and WEAKNESS and anx'
iety and sorrow that necessarily enter
into life, and the inward errings that
are worse than all, I would end my
record with a devout thanksgiving
to the great Author of my being. Fot
more and more am I unwilling TO
make my gratitude to Him what Is
commonly called "a thanksgiving Tor
mercies,' for any benefits or blessings
that are peculiar to myself, or my
friends. or indeed to any man. In
stead Of this. I would have it be graf
itude for all that belongs to my life
and being-for joy and sorrow, for
health and sickness, for success n
disappointment, for virtue and Tor
temptation. for life and death; be-
cause I believe that all Is meant for
good DIR. George r. Lunn, Id

Losing the Use of Our Legs?

A French journal gloomily prog
nosticates that we shall have lost the
use of our legs in a generation or
two. The tendency of the age is to
invent means by which human beings
are conveyed from place to place as
quickly and cheaply as possible.
People certainly walk far less now
than they did twenty-five years ago;
they will walk still less in fifty years.
time. When a century has passed,
perhaps, as u French contemporary
suggests, we shall altogether have
forgotten how to walk, and u de-
scendants will hop like birds. when
they are on the level and fly whenever
they get the chance. But what will
become of their livers? And how
are the poor things ever to enjoy the
delights of looking at the shops?-

Coloring an Abyssinian Bride.

Western brides have an easier
time than their Abyssinian sisters.
On the occasion of her marriage an
Abyssinian bride has to change her
skin.
From ebony she has to become the
color of cafe au lait. To accomplish
this the expectant bride is shut up in
a room for three months. She is COW
cred with wooden stuff, with the ex-
ception of her head; then they burn
certain green and fragrant branches.

with tears in her eyes. Her nerves
had been a little shaken by that
shock, and by the vain perception
that stole over her of two parties In
the family, two that would become
more distinctly two by the progress
of years, unlike in nature and consti-
tuition, and even in name. 1t Is not

1t cost Lady Car a pang to hear
even this mild expression Of opinion
about her boy. A mother says many
things, and feels many, things, about
her children which no one else may
say before her. She looked at him
wistfu1ly, with a faint smile, which
was full of pain. "He Is only a child"
she said, apologeticaIly, land then he
will get that at school," She could
not contradict him, and she could not
argue with him. Poor little Tom!
he was her own, though he might not
be all she wished him to be-the
plea rose to her lips unconsciously
that he was fatherless, that he had
drawbacks to contend against, poor
child. What a plea to form even IN
consciously in her mind. She looked
at her husband with such a troubled
and wistful appeal that his heart
smote him. He laid his hand upon
her head .caressingly, and stopped to
kiss her.
"To be sure" he said; '"the boy

From Success Maaszlns

General Tom Edgar, the first white
child born on Galveston Island (his
birthday was in June, 1870, was re-
turning to Galveston from Houston,
where he had been an honored guest
at the dedication of a tablet placed
on the site of the first capitol of Tex
as. at Houston. We were seat mates
in the smoking a He told many
amusing stories of the early days.
Among others, he narrated his ex-
perience as a juror in the case Of a
negro on trial for stealing a mule.
It was in 1865, while United States
soldiers were still in charge at Gal
weston. The negro pleaded not
guilty, but the testimony was pretty
clear against him. His lawyer, ignor-
ing the testimony, based his defense
upon the assertion that the negro
could not possibly be guilty.
"Is 1t not a fact" he said, that
the Federal Government promised
every freedman two mules and sixty
acres of land? No man can: deny it,
because it is a fact. My client has not
received his promised span of mules.
He has, indeed, got but one mule, as
these witnesses have testified, and the
United States still owes him another
mule and sixty acres of land. / leave
1t to you, gentlemen" he said, turn
ing to the jury, eff the facts do not
prove conclusively that my client is
not guilty of stealing this mule and
can not, under the circumstances,
have been guilty"
THAT argument" said General Ed
gar, "tickled us so that we actually
returned a verdict Of not guilty I
don't believe the darby eve did get
the other mule and the sixty acres,
but we did all we could to make

"Other Worldliness.n

The gibe of George Eliot about
"other worldliness," while never gen.
orally true, is to-day less so than
ever. The greatest enemy OF the
Church dare not say, with any pros
pect Of being believed, that Heaven
looms more largely than earth In the
thought Of modern Christianity. The
exact contrary Is the case. The social
ideas Of the time absorb many, to the
almost entire exclusion of heavenly
visions. What the Church needs Is
really a reminder OF her heavenly cit
izenship, a fact likely to be forgotten
amid the fever of temporal activity.
In a sermon, before Rev. j. H. Jo-
wett's congregation at Birmingham,
Rev. j. G. Stevenson, Of Brighton,
made a strong plea for the recovery
of spiritual and heavenly conceptions,
as being absolutely necessary for the
maintenance of practical work; and
he quoted the case of one who, com,
mencing social service for love OF
Christ, gradually dropped all the dis
tinctively Christian side Of his work,
abandoned public worship, and be-
came absorbed in social endeavor.
But the time came when the latter
in turn was dropped, on the ground
that "he had worked long enough
for others-it was time to work for
himself"
1t would be easy to multiply cases
of this kind. 1t is a law not suffi-
GENTLY understood that work in the
world can only be successfully car
ried on as personal spirituality Is
maintained. It Is the true heavenly
citizen who makes the best earthly
one.-London Christian.
