Going Home. i Kiss me when my spirit flics; Let the beauty of your eyes Beam along the waves of dentil While X draw tny parting breath. And am borne to yonder shore Where the billows beat no more, And the notes of endless spring Through the groves immortal ring. I am going home to-night. Out of blindness into sight, Out of weakness, war and pain, Into power, peace and.gain. Out of winter gale and gloom Into summer breath and bloom; From the wanderings of the past I am going home at last. Kiss ray lips and lei me go: Nearer swells the solemn flow Of the wondrous stream that rolls 1 By the borderland of souls; I can catch sweet strains of songs > n, f loating UU? 11 Jiuilluiiia.n And can feel the touch of hands Reaching out from angel bands. i About Women?For Women.

J Luther?Earth has nothing more tender than a woman's heart when it ' is the abode of pity. , "Hut Then." It was a queer name for a little girl, and it was not her real name?that was Lizzie?but everybody called her "But j Then." "Course my real name is prettier, but then, I like tbe other pretty well," she f-aid, nodding her short brown curls merrily. And that sentence shows just how she came by her name. If Willie complained that it was a miserable, rainy day, and they couldn't play out of doors, Lizzie assented brightly: "Yes; but then, it is a real nice day to fix our scrap-books." When Bob fretted because they had so far to walk to school since they had "moved to this horrid Out West," his < little sister reminded him : "But then, it's all the way through the woods, you know, ami that's ever so much nicer than walking on pave- i inents." When even patient, Aunt Barbara pined a little because the rooms in the new house were so few and small com pared with the comfortable Eastern , home, a rosy face was quietly lifted to her's with the suggestion : "But then, little rooms are the best ? ? i ? | to cuaaie up logtuier iu, uuu i juuj think, auntie?" i "Better call her 'Little But Then,' and have done with it," declared Bob, j half-vexed, half-laughing. "No mat- i ter how bad anything is, she is always j ready with her 'but then,' and some i kind of consolation hitched on to the end of." And so, though no one really intended it, the new name began, 'ihere were a good many things that the childreu missed in their new and rud; er home in the West. Money could haye bought them even there but if the money had not gone first, their father would scarcely have thought it necessary to leave his Eastern liome. They had done what was best under the circumstances; still the boys felt rather inclined to grumble about it one winter morning when they were starting off to the village on an errand. "Just look at the snow going to waste, without our having a chance to j enjoy it!" said Will; "and the ice too; ?all because we couldn't bring ourj sleds with us when we moved." "But then, you might make one yourself, you know. It wouldn't be; quite so pretty, but it would be just as good," suggested little But Then. "Exactly what I mean to do so soon , as I can get money enough to buy two; or three boards; 'but I haven't even ! that yet, and the winter is nearly half j gone." "If we only had a sled to-day, Sis could ride and we could go on' to the river," said Bob. "It's just as near! that way, and we could go faster." "It is a pity," admitted the little girl, with a momentary cloudingof her bright face. "But then, I've thought! of something?that old chair in the, shed! If we turned it down, its back; would be most like runners, and so?" , "Hurrah! that's the very thing!", interrupted the boys, and the old chair was dragged out in a twinkling, and carried down to the river. Then away went the merry party, laughing and shouting, on the smooth road between the snowy hills, while Gyp followed, friskily and barking, and seeming to' enjoy the fun as much as any of them, j "Isow we'll draw our 'rig' up here close under the bank, where nobody Will see it, and leave it while we go up to the store," said Rob. when they had reached the village. Their errand was soon accomplished, and the children ready to return; but as they set forth Will pointed to a dark spot a little way out on the ice. "What is that? It looks likeagrpat bundle of clothes." It was a bundle that moved and moaned as they drew near, and proved to be a girl a little larger than Lizzie. She looked up when they questioned her, though her face was pale with pain. "I slipped and fell on the ice," shei explained, "and I'm afraid I've brok-l ? - " s- -11 ...win. en my leg, ior it is nn nnsvcu uunci me, and I can't move it or get up. I live in the village. "That's my father's carpenter shop, where you see the <ign. I could see it all the time, and yet I was afraid I'd freeze here before liny one saw me. Oh, dear! it doesn't seem as if I could lie here while }Ton ?o for my father." "Why, you needn't." began Rob; but the girl shook her head. "I can't walk a step, and you two are not strong enough to carry me all the way. You'd let me fall, or you'd have to keep stopping to rest; and putting me down and taking me lip again would almost kill me." "Oh, but we'll only lift you into the chair, just as carefully as we can, then we can carry you easy enough," said Will. "And in that way the poor girl was borne safely home, and the children lingered longenough to bring the surgeon and hear his verdict that "Young bones don't much mind being broken, ind she will soon be about again, well as ever." "But I don't see how you happened to have a chair so handy," said her father to the boys. And when they explained that they were using it for a sled, he said, with a significant nod of the bead, "Your sled, was it? Well, I shall besurprised if my shop does not turn you out a better sled than that, just by way of thanks for your kindness." "But then, wasn't it good that it was only the old chair that we had to-day?" asked little "But then," as she told the story to Aunt Barbara at home. "Oh, auntie, I had thenicest kind of a time." "I believe you did," answered Aunt Barbara, smiling, "i'ora brave, sunny spirit that never frets over what it has not, but always makes the best of what it has, where it is, is sure to have a jood time. It does not need to wait for it to come?it has a factory for making it."?& S.' Gem. Only the Faults. "My husband is sure to notice, and <peak of any luiperiecuon wuu u to tlie cooking," said an over-worked wife. "I suppose lie also speaks of tlie perfections?" I replied, with perhaps a question in my tone. "No; he seems to think that his acceptance and enjoyment of a disli liolds sufficient praise; but I have often waited, and longeu like a child, for x word that would tell me tbat he appreciated my work or skill in the success before him ; but I have beguu to believe that I must do without it, for it seems to be a habit for men to speak jf what displeases them, and to keep silent when they are satisfied with what is placed before thein." I said nothing to the woman, but 1 said to myself, "Poor, over-worked little house-wife! You have not philosophized beyond the housekeeping domain of thought; with your care for the three meals, that through 363 days U/1 low! /I/IUMI fnlllll VOI1 JUI1 IIOUI UC Itliv* J _ - J liave an opportunity. For this care has amounted, not only to a solemn duly with you, but to a tyranny; but, if you could have had a single chance to judge of cause and effect, as related to nther matters than your husband's meals, you might have noticed that it is the habit of human nature to watch for and to discover imperfections rather than to seek jH-rfcction. Jn no particular is this more truly the case than with regard to Christians. If a professed Christian goes wrong, everybody seems to know it, and the majority of those who know it like to talk about it. But what of the case when Christians do right? What happens when there cannot be fouud a flaw in their lives? Do we hear meu calling?one to the other?what true, beautiful lives these Christians are living? If we call the man who finds fault with the slightest imperfection in the food, and never gives the trusting, waiting wife a word of praise or en-| couragement lor tne penecuons, h very thoughtless, if not a very selfish man, shouhl we not name the man who is always spying out and condemning the slightest error in a Christian life by the same name? Speaking only as the world would, does not generosity demand a different course? Is it fair to see only the one! side always? Is it an evidence of well- j trained judgment? In the name of charity, I would I plead again for those who are living! beautiful, consistent lives in this world J of work, and temptation, and trial;, for those whose faults may have been noticed here, but who shall at the last stand in the gathered assembly to hear: "These are they that have come out of great tribulation, and have! washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb." Incentives to War. BY REV. D. 1). TAPPIN. Why don't you look more to the beginnings? "He drew his revolver and : shot his victim." How came he to' nave a revolver aoout mm, uiua ucihk already for this deed of murder? Did he expect to kill somebody, or this man in particular? And how about this equipment of deadly weapons, tempting to their reckless use, on any sudden gust of passion, or to gratify cherished revenge, waiting for its opportunity ? Can no laws be enacted, and enforced, to prevent the custom of, ordinarily, going about thus armed? If certain officials, when on duty, need to be, does the necessity extend to citizens in general, as well the reckless as; others? If the man, who killed hisj fellow-man, had carried no revolver about, his sudden wrath, or even his cherished revenge, might, on sober thought, have abated, and the guilt of murder would not lie on his soul. Must we always permit provocatives to murder and war, to pass in a great degree, unnoticed, till misrule becomes the order of the day, and bloodshed ceases to alarm? Is it not characteristic of us, Americans, that we let alone [ an evil, till it becomes gigantic, and,' then, begin to question our ability to owmit it') WiMipes slfivorw Mormon ism, and intemperance. Let us look more to the beginnings. Why furnish little children with playthings adapted to excite, or foster a military spirit? Why should lads of! this generation be encouraged to em-j ploy, in attempts at oratory, speeches like those formerly attributed to mili-j tary chieftains, inciting the admira-i tionof martial exploits? And, without depreciating the virtues of civil rulers, who though they had been military chieftains, had other and higher | qualities, better fitting them for peaceful civil rulers,?why must republics feel bound to elect military chieftains, as such, to their highest civil offices? Does it not lend to perpetuate the spirit of war? Does it not instruct ambitious men, that to excel in warlike achievements may be a passport to office and fame, otherwise unattainable by them ? Can you always lay the spirit, thus worked, or limit its sway? ?1,A .lAtimuwi /lAIU'OO cowl Q JT'US.Y UIC UWUiUMUM VWIIIOV, ?. heathen poet; but, to retrace that course, and ascend, thin is a work indeed.

Prayed Too Little.?"I was lately in company of one of our older ministers," said a young minister the other day, "one who lias labored long and with much success in some of the most difficult fields of the church. The object of my Interview was to learn from him the secret of success with which it had pleased God to crown his ministry in positions and places where others had failed. Instead, however, of directly giving me the information I desired, he told me with great sorrow the reason why he had accomplished so little, and said with unaffected sadness, 1 My young friend, the mistake of my life has been that I have not prayed more. I fell into the error of most ministers. I studied and preached. I worked and worried too much, and I prayed too lime: uoilici 1 live my lire over uguiw, T would be more with God and less with men. I see it all now?what wasted years of unrest I have passed, how much of my life was my own doing, and hmv little of God has been in my activc ministry! T can now, in the evening of my days, only ask God to forgive my shortcomings, and to aid me in spending my few remaining years differently from the imperfect way in which I have served my Master.' " That there should be a Christ, and that I should be Christless; that there should be a cleansing, and T should remain foul; that there should be a Father's love, and T should be an alien: that there should be a heaven, and I should be cast into hell, is grief embittered, sorrow aggravated. Whatever tends to make us think much of our poor selves also destroys the spirituality of our mind. You can not serve God and self too.
