C'oiumlnir To-Morrou. "My dear," said I to my wife, as we walked home, ''sometimes it seeuis to s me as if our life were uureal. We goj. to church, and the things that we hear a are true or false. For instance, the .Advent sermons our rector preaches. Do g we really believe what we hear in v church? Oris it only a dream?" "I do believe," said my wife earnest f ly (she is a good woman, my wife) ? "Yes, I do believe, but isjust as you say. s Oh, dear! I feel as if I'm very worldly ?I have so many things to think of," ( and she sighed. 1 So did I; fori knew that J, too, was j very worldly. After a pause I said, "Suppose Christ f should really come?suppose it should ( be authoritatively announced that he ( would be here tomorrow!" "I think." said my wife, "there t would be some embarrassment on the | part of our great men, legislators and councillors, in anticipation of a person, al interview. Fancy a meeting of the ? city council to arrange a reception for t the Lord Jesus Christ." 1 "Perhaps," said I, "he would refuse a all offers of the rich and great. Perhaps our fashionable churches would j plead for his presence in vain. Hv j would not be in palaces." c "Oh," said my wife earnestly, "If I t thought our money eeperated us from 'j him, I would give it all?yes, all? ( might I only see him." e She spoke from the bottom of her v heart, and for.a moment her face was j glorified. * 0 "You will see him some day," said I, "and the money we are willing to q give up at a word for him will not keep him from us." That evening the thoughts of the waking hours mirrored themselves in a dream. I seemed to be walking in the streets, and conscious ofa strange, I vague senses of something just declar- i ed, of which all were speaking with a v suppressed air of mysterious voices. r I heard one say to another, "Really i coming? What? Tomorrow"? And c the other said, "Yes, tomorrow he t will be here." c It was night. The stars were glit- t terintr down witn a Keen irosty ngm; *the shops glistened in their bright ar- c ray; but the same sense of hushed ex- t pectancy pervaded everything, There e seemed to be nothing doing; and each t person looked on his neighbor as if to t say, "Have you heard ?" v Suddenly, as I walked, an angel-form t was with me, gliding softly by my s side. The face was solemn, sereue <i and calm. Above the forehead was a c pale, tremulous, phosphorous radiance a of light, purer than any on earth?u g light of quality so difFefeut from that u of fhestreet lamps that my celestial d attendant seemed to move in a sphere t< alone. s Yet, though I felt a sense of awe, T r felt also a confiding love as I said t* 'Tell me, is it really true? Is Christ n coming?" ' He is," said the angel. "To-mor- ^ row he will be here." a !' "What joy!" I cried. 4'Is it joy?" said the angel. "Alas, to many in this city it is only terror! Come with me." In a momentl seemed to bestauding J with him in one of the chief palace.of the city. A stout, florid, bald-head- s ed man was seated at table covered \ papers, which he was sorting over with nervous anxiety, muttering to 1 himself as he did so. On a sofa lay a i sad-looking, delicate woman her emaciated hands clasped over a little c book. t The room was, in all its appointments, a witness of boundless wealth, yet the man himself seemed to have > been neither elevated nor refined by the confluence of all these treasures. He seemed nervous and uneasy. He v wiped the sweat from his brow and 9 spoke: ? "I don't know, wife, how you feel, o but I don't like this news. I don't un- v derstand it. It puts a stop to every- ? thing I know anything about." > "Oh, John," said the woman turn- ? ing toward him a face pale and fervent, | and clasping her hands, "how can you a say so ?" f< "Well, Mary, it's the truth. I don't f care it I say it. I don't want to meet u ?well, I wish he would put it off'. h What does he want of me? I'd be t willing to make over?well, three mil- n lions to fourd a hospital if he'd be satisfied and let me go on. Yes, I'd ' give three millions to buy off" from tomorrow. " 8he cast on him a look full of s Pity. t ' Cannot I make you see ?" she r said. v "No, indeed,you can't. Why, look , here," he added pointing to the paper*, J "here is what stands for millions. To- e night it's mine, and to-morrow it will t] all be so much paper; and then what a have I left! Do you think I can c rejoice?, I'd give; I'd I'd give? v the whole, not have him come g these three hundred years." She 9 stretched out her hand towards him, j( . but be pushed it back. "Do you see ?" said the angel, to c me,solemnly, "between him aud her a there ie^a great gulf fixed. They have j lived in one house with that gulf be- D tween them for years. She cannot go v to him; he cannot go to her. To-mor- u row she will rise to Christ as a dew v drop to the sun; and he will call on v the mountains and rock9 to fall on j( him?not because Christ hates him; t( but because he hates Christ." c Again the scene was changed. v We stood together in a little low j( attic, lighted by one small lamp?how poor it was!?a broken chair, a rickety table, a bed in the corner where the little ones were cudding close to one another for warmth. Poor things ! ^ The air was so frosty that their breath . congealed upon the bed clothes, as they 1 talked in soft baby voices : "When g mother comes she will bring us some supper," said they. "But I'm so 1 cold," .said the little outsider. ? Get into the middile then," said * the other two, "and we will warm you. * Mother promised she'd make a fire when she came in, if that man would said the oldest boy, "he never pays mother if he can help it." b "What a bad man he is !" said 0 the oldest boy, "he never pays e mother If he can help it." Just then the door opened and a pale, b thin woman came in, laden down with packages. She laid all down and came to her children's bed, clasping her hands in rapture. , "Joy ! joy ' children! Oh, joy ! joy ! J Christ is coming ! He is coming tomorrow." Every little bird in the nes twas up and the little arms around the mother's c neck; the children believed at once. They had heard of the good Jesus. He had been their mother's only /finn/-! fhrnncrh monr a onH linti I11CUU KUIVU^II UJMIIJ C? VViU gry day, and they doubted not he was coming. "Oh, mother, will he take us ! He will, won't he ?" "Yes, my little ones," she said softly, smiling to herself. "He shall gather the lambs with his arms, aud carry them in his bosom." Again I stood in a brilliant room, ] full of luxuries. Three or four fair t women were standing pensively talk- <i ing with each other. Their apartmeut was bestrewn with jewelry, laces, silks, 'i&r-J. \ . ' . - ' i velvets and every fanciful elegance <>i ash ion; but thev looked troubled. "This* seems to me really awful,'' aid one with a suppressed si^h. What troubles lue is, 1 know so little ibout it." "Yes," said another, "and it puts 11 top so to every thine;! Of what use vill all these things be tomorrow?" There was a poor seamstress in the orner of the room,who now spoke. 'We shall be ever with the Loid," she iaid. "I'm sure I don't know what that an mean,"said the lirst speaker, with iind of shudder; "it seems rather earful." "Well," said the other; "it seems =o sudden?when one never dreamed )f any such things?to change all at )nce, from this to that other life." "It is enough to be with him," said he poor woman. " Oh, I have longed 'or it." "The great gulf," said the angel. Then,again,we stood on the steps oi t church. A hand of clergymen were ogether?Episcopal, Methodist, Kapist, Presbyterian, Congregationalist? ill stood hand in hand. "It is no matter now about these old ssues," they said. "He is coming, ie will settle all. Ordinations and trdinaces, sacraments and creeds are >ut the scaffolding of the edifice. Phey are the shadow; the substance is Christ." And hand in hand they turn d their faces where the morning ligh t vas beginning faintly to glow, and heard them saying together, with ine heart and one voice: "Come; Lord Jesus! come [uickly !

The order recently issued by the War department to the efiect that th> American soldiers who married native women in Porto Rico would be held esponsible by the militrv authoritief they deserted their waves aud chilIreu furnishes a lesson as to thecharater of the American soldiers. But deent, houorable people are appalled at he idea of such baseness. It is not lomplimentary to the sense of morality fthe American people to be compelled o say that there may be some dill'ermce of opinion as to wherein the baseless cousists ; but there are doubtless hose who think it baser to live with a vomau of an inferior race even after lie bonds of matrimony have been ealed than to desert her and her chil IreD because such a relationship might lot be tolerated in this country. It it , pitiable plight these soldiers have ot themselves into, it is true, but the rar department does right when it emands of them that they reiuaiin aithful to their alliances. They hould be compelled, if it be possible to emain in Porto Rico or be transported r> some other clime where miscegelation of this sort is tolerated. Meautitne, let the soldiers of tin Lnglo-Saxon nations stationed anions lien races take warning.

A HEALTHY MAN. Here Are the Points That Go to Ilak* n Centenarian. Here are the points of a healthy man. If you havo thcra all you may, barring accidents, count on being a centenarian. , If you have most of them, you'll reach a ripe old age, but even if you havo only a few don't be alarmed, for many apparently crazy human machines last a surprisingly long time. First, your body and limbs should be plump, but the plumpness shruld be of the firm and muscular, not the fleshy type. Your liguro ought to be erect, and, whether / i-ll 1 4. 11 I yuu are win ur Diiuri/| ? cu pxupui iiuxicu. i Length without breadth is a very bad thing in a man, for there is no room for vital organs large enough to thoroughly J perform their duties. Your step should be springy and elastic, your gait firm and easy. These things indicate muscles of good quality and nerve of good tono. Your eye should bo bright . and neither prominent nor hollow. Bright eyes show that the circulation of blood in i the brain is good. Your complexion should bo clear and fresh. It is usually not well with you when your face is pale, sallow, florid or subject to sudden flushings. But in this matter your occupation has great influence, and you might have the worst possi, ble complexion and be in perfect health. , But that, of course, is tho exception, not the rule. Your head should not be very large, or at least if it is large your neck, shoulders and chesc ought to correspond in size. If you feel your pulse, it shrtuld be regular; if it drops a beat now and again or beats very fast and excitedly after the least exertion or emotion then tho heart is weak. Your breathing should be tranquil and inaudible. Any sounds mean that tho passages are more or less clogged. You should not know you have a stomach?that is to say, as a rule.
