Religion was his favorite theme:
hence, as private Christian, and in
the society of friends, family and
home, his distinguishing traits were
exhibited. In early life he was of a
serious and reflective turn, being,
from feeble health, much in the
company of pious mother. When
about Fl or q years of ag1, the sud-
den death of his next older and ia
vorite brother, followed in three
days by the death of his mother, and
soon an attack of the same disease
ldysenteryl, that nearly proved
fatal, while these nearly over
whelmeo him with grief, he also be-
came particularly anxious for his
own salvation, avoiding, for several
months, everything like amusement
and the society of his associates.
| Soon after their marriage nv
parents, according to the then pre-
valent custom of the Congregational
church in New England, united with
the Congregations; church of Bolton,
by what was then termed 1.-THE
half way covenant" that was, as |
have been told, by asserting to the ar
ticles of faith, promising to live as
near as they were able to the rules
of the Bible, going to- communion,
and promising to have their children
baptized. This, however, they soon
felt TO be the form without the SUBJ
stance, and, after a protracted men,
tai struggle, accepted salvation on
whole covenant terms, and both soon
after made public profession of
their faith in Christ, and a family
altar was set up through life.
Although frequently beset with
temptations, doubts and fears, ag-
gravated by nervous debility, which
produced at times great activity and
animation, but was often followed
by detection, yet hope would revive
after melancholy, and he would
press onward in the Christian race.
He commenced when quite young
the practice of reading the Bible
through by course once a year, and
continued it as long as he lived; and.
after his health failed SO as to be
unable to work regularly, he often
read it through two or three times
in a year. Hence ne was good
Bible student, and able from Scrip.
ture to warn or reprOve, encourage
or console. He sung intuitively
either part in church music, and
from eight years of age to his last
sickness he sung in the choir, if
needed; indeed, at any time, or on
any occasion when it was appropri-
ate, he was ready and willing to sing
of "redeeming grace and dying
love"
Although particularly industrious,
he not only attended meeting on the
Sabbath when able, but was present
at the lecture and prayer meeting,
and was ready to converse in private
when opportunity presented.
Kind and affectionate in his FAM
lily, and ardently DESTROYS of doing
all for them in his power, yet he
looked upon them as lent treas
ures," and when the Master called
them home could say, Thy will be
done"

was found alive, or had he been de-
voured by the wild beasts which
then prowled so thickly through the
forests, and had left his mangled
corpse, or his tattered garment, or
perhaps hand, or a foot only was
left? But soon the shrill notes of
the bugle were distinctly heard, and
the mother knew that her son which
was lost, is found" He is now in
the army of the United States.
The other child was a little girl
about three years old, belonging to
Mr.. Moses Emerson. She was lost
about noon in the summer of 1858,
who after being out all night was
found the next day a considerable
distance in the woods, sleeping
quietly where she had settled down
from fatigue.

Many Women Need Help

Women are as much inclined to Kid
ney trouble as are men, but too often
make the mistake Of thinking that a
certain amount of pain and torture is
their lot and cannot be avoided. Foley
Kidney Pills give quick relief from
backache, pains in sides and muscles,
stiff, sore, aching joints and bladder
ailments.
