"Was he so large that he could stand Like some tall steeple high; And, while his feet were on the ground, His hands could touch the sky?" Oh, no, my child ; about as large r As I, or Uncle James, 'Twas not his statue made him great, But greatness ol his name. "His name so great? I know 'tis long, Bnt easy quite to /pell; And more than nan a year ago I knew it very well." I mean, my child, his actioixs were So great he cot a name That everybody speaks with praise. And tells about nis fame. "Well, what great actions did he do? I want to know it all." Why, he It was that conquered Tyre, And levelled down her wall, And thousands of her people slew, And then to Persia went. And flre and sword on every side Through many a region sent. A hundred conquered cities shone With midnight burnings red; And strewed o'er many a battle-ground, A thousand aoldlers bled. " Id killing people make him great; Then why was Abdel Young Who killed his neighbor, training-dnv, Put into Jail and nung ? f "I never heard them call him great." Why, no?'twas not in war, And him that kills a single man, His neighbors all abhor. "Well, then, If I should kill a man, I'd kill a hundred more; I should be great, and not get hung Like Abdel Young before." Not so, my child, 'twill never do; The gospel bids be kind. "Then they that kill, and they that praise, The gospel do not mind ?" You know, my child, the Bible 6ays, That you must always do To other people as you wish To have them do to you. Bat, pa, did Alexander wish That some strong man would come, And burn hit house, and kill him. too, And do as he bad done? "And everybody called him great For killing people solWell, now, what right he had to kill, I should be glad to know. "If one should burn the buildings here, And kill the folks within, Would anybody call him great. For such a wicked thing?" Di\ Chalmers. Popularity.?The only popularity worth aspiring after is a peaceful popularity?the popularity of the heart? the popularity that is won iu the bosom or families and at the side of death-beds. There is another, a high, aud far-sounding popularity, which is, indeed, a most worthless article,jpj by all who have it most to be greatly more oppressive than gratifyiug?a popularity of state and pressure and animal heat and a whole tribe of other annoyances which it brings around the person of its unfortunate victim?a popularity which rifles home of its ons? Ktr nlntTofinrr q man ohnvo oYY culOJ ?uu MJ viVTuvaig u mw v his fellows, places him in a region of desolation, where the intimacies of human fellowship are unfelt, and where he stands a conspicuous mark "for the shafts of malice and envy and detraction?a popularity which, with its head among thorns, and its feet on the treacherous quicksands has noth^? ing to lull the agonies of its tottering existence but the hosannahs of a driveling generation. Associate Reformed Presbyterian. Some persons complain that preaching is "dull." They compare the preacher with the lawyer and the politician, always to the disadvantage of the minister. But there is u conspicuous unfairness in the contrast. Let the politician or lawyer deal with one great truth all the time?let him speak to the same audience twice or iSavioo a aaIt r\r~\ onmn faafni*o nf tULCt7 wiuco a wcvn va ouluv ivuiuiv wi tbis truth, and then note the result. For a period of three months, ouly, Congress has been discussing the Tariff. Some of the most brilliant speakers of tbis country have participated in the discussion, and yet this great national debate has become intolerably tiresome and uninteresting. Set over against this, the fact that some of the pastors in Washington City, under the shadow of the Capitol, have been preaching to the same people for twenty years?with constantly increasing congregations. SU. Louis Christian Advocate. A Washington paper suggests that when the colored people of the South understand that Judge Thurman car?ties a red bandana they will vote for him by the thousands. They have a profound respect for a man who ap predates red bandanas. Perhaps so, and perhaps not; yet it is not to be denied that many votes are cast for reasons no stron ger than this By a whim, a caprice, personal like or dislike, many votes have been cast irrespective of any and all principle involved in the case. So it lias been, so it is likely to be again. Learn to Give. 1. From habit. This can be learned iu yeuth; therefore, teach your children to put something in the plate whenever it is passed. 2. From a feeling of obligation and duty to God, who commands it, and whose commands you promised to obey. Teach this duty of your children. 3. From an overflowing love to \ God, who has given you so much. Give to him lavishly, as vou would give to a beloved wife or child or pa rent, only in a proportion as greater as your love to him and his love to you exceed all human love. Teach this also to your children. 4. Give from love to the needy and suffering. As soon as you see a want, or hear of one, try to relieve it; and teach your children to do likewise. "Be Mighty Sure." "Be mighty sure with your proofs. Bob," said a hard-looking old soak to the man who had assured him that there was no hell. "Be mighty sure with your proofs, Bob, for there are a great many of us who are depending on ye." "Yes, I 'believe," said one man, "that everybody will be saved ; but I'd give that yoke of oxen if I knew it was so " "I believe every word of it," said a grasping miser to one who had been prophesying smooth things to the people, "but I'll give you $1,000 if you will prove it sure and no mistake." Men are right glad to pay their money, but they want to be sure they get what they pay for. And, if at last they should find that there was some mistake, and that perdition was no dream, and damnation no joke; if they 9hould find that, after all their assaults 011 creeds and catechisms, there was one thing they had not touched?the Word of God which liveth and abideth forever, that Word which declares that "The wages of sin is death," and that "The soul that sinneth it shall die ;" men will mourn at last that they depended upon falsehoods and uncertainties. Is it not better to make the matter sure to-day by turning to the Lord, and seeking and finding salvation through Him ? W'\V" * . ..T-> T One Little Rhyme. One little grain iu the sandy barn: One little flower iu a field of flowers; One little star in a heaven of stars; One little hour in a year of hours? What if it makes, or what if it mars? But tho bar is built of the little grains; Ancl tho little flowers makes the meadows M gay; I And the little stars light the heavenly plains; i And the little hours of each littte day, ] Give to us all that life contains? ?St. Xieholas. * What to Read When the Day is Over. It is wise at night to read?but for a few minutes?some books which will ' compose and soothe the mind; which , will bring us face to face with the true i facts of life, death, and eternity; i which will make us remember tliut 1 man doth not live by bread alone; which will give us before we sleep a few thoughts worthy of a Christian man with an immortal soul in him. And, thank God, no one need go far to And such books. I do not mean merely religious dooks, exceuem us they are in these days ; I mean any books which help to make us better and wiser and soberer and more charitable persons ; any books which will teach us to despise what is vulgar and mean, foul and cruel, and to love what is noble and high-minded, pure and just. In our English language we may read by hundreds books which will tell of all virtue and all praise; the stories of good and brave men and women; of gallant and heroic actions; of deeds which we ourselves should be proud of doing; of persons whom we feel to be better, wiser, nobler than we are ourselves.?Canon Kinyslcy. Faith in to-morrow, instead of ? Christ, is Satan's nurse for man's perdition. The soul that sincerely worships j God secures its own highest development. Cultivate a sense of an all-seeing ( Eye, one whom you would not for the world offend. Lot the rule invariably be this, where you cannot pray as you would, pray as you can. { A good farmer is better than a poor doctor, and a good horse-shoer is better than a poor bishop. i An open mind, an open hand and an open heart, will everywhere find an open door. Busy lives, like busy waters, are generally pure. Stagnant lives, like pools, j breed corruption. ^ "If Christians hold themselves aloof from moral crusades the world wil never advance."
