Little But Often. BY J. W. LEE, D. X). Galilee studied a swinging pendulum. He blew his breath against it each time it came near his lips. This increased its velocity and length of curve. He learned that a slight impulse, often repeated, becomes of great consequence. An important law in physics was thus established. "Line upon line, upon precept" was laid c'o.vnas an important law in morals ages before. A breath of anger or impurity or thoughtlessness is like a bomerang ; the one against whom it is blown increases in velocity of evil, and makes wider departure from God; and the one breathing it becomes angry or vile more rapidly again, and makes wider circles for his influence. And the oftener the breath is blown the faster does the pendulum swing! and its curve is elongated more aud j more. If there can be found no perpetual motion in physics, in morals the swing of the pendulum at las becomes eternal. The swing become a fixed habit?like the "great gulf fixed." I A little wave ofair is put in motion up the high Alps by a hunter's shout. It beats against other aerial wave until at last it strikes an avalanche at exact equipoise; and the avalanche rushes down the mountain side carrying destruction and death to the valley below. A breath of kindness often repeated, always cherished, may grow into a habit of wide-spread, permanent blessing. The least word kindly spoken putswonarous currents ;iu lUUUUU 111 the human soul, aud makes, oftentimes, thousands of hearts glad. The tears of a little girl from the British Bible Society, which became the parent of the American Bible Society. These two breaths have beaten against the darkness, and brought light to almost all the earth. John Kuskin beautifully says that "the pine tree is trained to need nothing and to endure every thing. Tall or short, it will be straight: small or * large, it will be round." Its symmetry comes from the proper development of all the concentric circles. It draws its nourishment from earth and air, seas and skies. Here a little there a little. Then in rugged endurance itstandsagainst winds and storms. Its gnarled roots stay the land-slide, and its green shades cover the weary climber. By cherising good purposes, indulging pure impulses, and breathing forth the breath of kindness and love, goodness becomes a mighty force in oz-.nl onrl n nrnnelliner tUC 1 IIU1 V 1U UUl OVU* J MUV? M -r c power to urge others on their up hill way. To blow the breath against the pendulum is to make it swing with increasing velocity and in ever-lengthening curve.?The Mid Continent. The mind wants steadying and setting right many times a day. It resembles a compass on a rickety table; the least stir of the table makes the needle swiDg round and point untrue. Let it settle, then, till it points right. Be perfectly silent for a few moments, thinking about Jesus ; there is almost a divine force in eilence. Drop the thing that worries, that excites, that, interests, that thwarts you ; let it fall like a sediment to the bottom, until the soul is no longer turbid; and say, secretly, "Grant, I beseech Thee, merciful Lord, to Thy faithful servant par<lnn and neace : that I mav be cleansed from all my sins and serve The with a puiet mina .'"?Bishop Huntintom. Qnaint old Matthew Henry points out that Abraham's slaves which he had gotten in Haran are called "souls.'' In these times servants are called "hands." A world of difference. Hands?four fingers and a thumb to get as much out of as one can, and to put as little into, from the master's standpoint. And from the servants'? to pick up as much as they can and to give as little back again. When master and man can find in each other's relationsihp a soul?a living, earnest, brotherly soul?then only are the work and wages alike right.?Mark Guy Pearse. ? ^ ? PoDer.v "Puts Between.*' 1.
