These things keep meekly hid: Myself and 1, And mine and my, And how I do or did. The Two Mites. The two mites cast by a poor widow into the treasury of the Lord in the temple under the observation of Jesus, and His comments thereon, have furnished the theme for a great many sermons. The scene occurred on TuesJ? Uio locf lintcAuor vvppk- and UttJ VI JLXiO XUOU |A?^;u.v .. 7 just as Jesus was about leaving the temple for the last time. Mark tells! the story as follows : "And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money Into the taersury; and many that were rich cast in much. And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. And He called unto Him His disciples, and saith unto them, Verily, I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all which have cast into the treasury. For all they did cast in of their abundance, but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living," (Mark xii: 41-44). This treasury consisted in a number of money boxes placed in the court of the temple for the" purpose of receiving the free-will offerings of the qeople, to . defray the expenses of the temple service. Jesus, for the time being, sat opposite one of these boxes, and He saw the people as they placed their offerings therein. He saw the rich doing so; and at length a poor widow made her appearance and put in"two mites," which in real value were equal to about one-third of a cent. Her act furnished the occasion for His comment; and His comment made her immortal in the memory of mankind. She, according to this comment, had ; cast in more than all the rich put together, not in actual value, but because they cast into the Lord's treasury from their abundance, while she did it from her want, and "cast in all that she had, even all her living." This comment shows Christ's knowledge of all these givers, as He simply looked at them; and it equally snows His estimate of them all. The poor widow, iu giving her two mites, eclipsed them all in the moral and spiritual sense. She gave more than all; of them in proportion to what she and they had to give, and more than all of ^ them in the amount of the sacrifice which she made, and more than all of them in the sincerity, purity, and devotion of her heart. Jesus understood this woman's condition and heart, and placed this high commendation upon her action, and by the commendation sent the action down the track of ages. He meant that what He then and there said should be a part of His recorded history, and thus be heard through all time. Giving to the Lord's cause is a religious act, as much so as praying; and if the giving, whether of large or small amounts, be not religiously performed with a sincere consecration of the heart, then it is not giving at all in the sight of God. Not the mere amount given, but the heart motive of the giver is, in a spiritual point of view, the material question. Let this not be forgotten. ? Old Time Preachers. Speaking of preaching, I have been thinking of late of the changes that have taken place iu the Methodist pul{)it?preachers and preaching?in the ast fifty or sixty years. The advances in Methodism, in point of numbers and wealth, and in the progress of ed ?ucation, together with the wonderful transformations wrought dv uisco\ery, and inventive genius; all these, and a hundred other things that time would fail to mention, have had the ellect, gradually, and almost insensibly to work changes in the preaching as \ye now have it in the Methodist pulpit. A Methodist preacher of to-day does not look, nor dress, nor talk, nor preach like the Methodist preacher back of fifty years ago. I do not say that the preacher of the present is not as good, and as sincere, and as consecrated as the preacher of a half-century ago; but I do say that, in very many respects, he is unlike the Methodist , preacher of the times referred to. I Preaching is changed, it may be for ! the better; but it is wanting in the ' unction, aud earnestness, and the c<>- , gency of appeal to sinners, and in the ( pointed, fearless, faithful warnings to Church members against backsliding, and against worldlinesss and worldly , conformity. The Methodist pulpit of , fifty years ago swayed a moral inttu- . ence over Church members that it ' does not at this time. The preaching | at the time under notice was less for- , mal and didactic than that which pre- , vails in our day. There was more of , the oratory element?more of im- | passioned, * spontaneous eloquencemore that appealed to the emotive , department of human nature?more, too, as I thiuk, that was effective in ' leading to immediate results. The ' sermon as a rule was followed by the * invitation of penitents to the allar. ' Even at the Sunday morning service, 1 on the stations, the "mourners" were j invited, and not unfrepuently there ! were conversions following the ser- ! mon. Evry preaeher was an "evangelist" in the best sense of the term. Children on the Sabbath. f Some years since an editorial appear- t ed in our State denominational paper * concerning children studying their t week-day lessons on the Sabbath, i The editor gave his opinion against t the practice. I agree with hint. 1 < use the lirst person singlar, for [ ex- < f a l'hitik in < n>lw.f T j iv rtiavc in (ilia ill in ic ? UiU 1 ' know and have seen. Would to God that this was the only objectionable ^ thing which some parents permit in c their children on this day. lint, alas! ? there are other things allowed, by the r side of which (from a human stand- i point) this practice is ji trifle. t Many professed Christians will al- a low their children to spend the Sab- o bath in almost every way, as they spend other days, and will even say to them, "go out and play, Such as this .. is not confined to any particular sec- s tion of country. Bad enough for our j, children to break the Sabbath with ' our knowledge; worse with our per- }, mission after they have asked it; still 0' worse by our orders. With many, it is a very common thing to allow their children to use the jogglig-board and swing on the Sabbath. I use plain language, and !' mention instances, for if I deal in !' generals, all will admit in a genral !' manner, that children ought to regard " the day; but many arc apt to consider their duty ended when they take their e: children to the sanctuary, or to tiie q Sabbath- school, or when they have " heard them repeat a hymn, or answer ri a few questions at home from the n Bible, or a catechism. Many do not m seem to feel under oblgition to do even what has been mentioned. They do pi not instruct their children, and on the < < ground that these are too small to at-Joi tend divine services, leave them alibi home, though they do not consider| hi them too small to go to school during the week. It seems, too, that they are not too small to play, to run about in the fields, and even to fight, it' they think it nescessary. Now, I do not plead that children should never talk, smile, <>r walk on the Sabbath ; but they should certainly be taught that there are things which may be done on other days that should not be done on the Sabbath ; and I think a moment's consideration will convince any thoughtful I professor of religion, that ?>n this day noise and uproar are out of place. I have come to the conclusion from long observation, that there are professors of rpliVioii that allow their chil dren to do on the Sabbath anything they are allowed to do on other days, except fishing :md hunting; and that some do not very strongly restrain them in the latter, if it be that kind of hunting that does not require the use of a gun. Attention. Women of America! The Universal Republic. John Raskin, in a lecture on Wart directed these words to his lady hearers : "T, for one, would fain join in the cadence of hammer-strokes that should heat swords into ploughshares; and that this can not be done is no, the fault of us men. It in your fault. Wholly yours. Only by your command, of by your permission, can any contest take place among us. The real, final, reason for all the poverty, misery, and rage of battle throughout Europe, is simply that you women, however good, however religions, however self-sacrificing for those whom you love, arc too selfish and too thoughtless to take pains for any creature outside of your own immediate circles. Now, I just tell you this, if the usual course of war, instead of unroofing peasants' houses, and ravaging peasants' fields, merely broke the china upon your own drawing-room tables, no war in civilized countries would last, a mouth." Sisters! awake and to the rescue! Pour the oil of your Omnipotent Love upon the troubled waters of a warring world ! The English philosopher Is right. Peace will come, it must come, at your bidding. Let not the call from France, published in tnis issue oc thk umveksal nki'tnLie, fall upon deaf ears. Let therespouse to it from the women of America, regardless of rank and creed, be earnest and loud?so earnest, so loud, that all the world may feel and know that God in this New Era speaks through the soul of woman. The Nothwestern Advocate thinks that flourishing home missions are the key to thriving foriegn missions: No missions fields demand and deserve more at the hands of the church than those in our large cities. New York, Chicago, Boston, Cincinnati, St. Louis, and other cities, suggest work enough to fill many hands and hearts. Not one dollar or stroke should be omitted for China or any other foriegn field, but our home cities cry aloud for cultivation. Thriving missions would tend to solve half a dozen of the weightiest problems which now press upon the souls of earnest men aud women. In more recent times thsse home missions have taken on an earnest form, and every effort has repaid time and money. We shall not say that the "heathen are at our doors,'" but rather our brethren near our doors clamor for care and prayer and salvation. Flourishing home missions are the key to thriving foreign missions. Benevolence is a running stream, and the dollars set in motion toward the neglected at home still stimulate zeal f >r the souls in all lands. Some other American colonies adopted peace principles, even earlier than Pennsylvania, but I con not find a de tailed account <>r tneir experience in tlie matter, as we do in regard to : this colony. In Rhode Island a ''peace man" appears to have been elected for Governor as early as Hi-jS, and it is stated that "Friends were at the liead of the colony in twelve year* from its foundation, ami it was lar<rly under their control until the Revolution. Eleven of the governors during that time were Friends." W. G. Hubbard says in relation to this : "The Colony of Rhode It land was under control of the Quakers for nbout one hundred years, and during nil that time made no military display, and lived in peace, though their more i military neighbors were much of the j time fighting, and in constant danger of massacre." Experience, for the most part, is mr dramatic. We often seem to be look" ing back on a series of beginnings ; an 1 Acquaintance full of promise ends . without ripening into friendship, or i friendship fades into cold acquaintance without tragedy or pathos; abandoned (. pursusts leave our path cumbered with i rubbish?everywhere we see the scaffolding side by side with the ruin. i He who would <jo heavenward, or go [ [Jhrist-ward, cannot go with the . irowd ; for the crowd is not going in f hat direction. And this is one of the ' sorest trials of the Christian life. It separates the Christian disciple from nanya companionship which would otherwise be delightful to him. Rut he choice must be made between conformity to the world and consecration ' o Christ. A Hint fok Youth.?A very pret y idea children have in Germany of 'orming themselves into societies for he protection of animals and the preservation of plants. They all a^ree not ' o steal birds' eggs or destroy their ( lests; not lo tread on the plants or car the roots out of the moist warm JJ '.irtli, and leave them to wither ami o lie: not to beat the cows and horses, " >r throw stones at the chickens. There are many ways in which it I vouhl l?e wc'l for us all to carry our hildhood with lis, even on into old go, if it were possible, in its trustful- " less and open heartcdness, and will- " u guess not only to love, hut to show a hat we love, as well. Why, that lone would cure many a heart-ache ,| f to-dav. "lie not deceived, (Jod is not. nioclcd. for what a man so wet h that he will cap." If wo do not practice a "Heist not evil life," never exneet f!od to less any ctl'orl we put forth in the oj?ositedirection. Our words will miliute against our actions, and our met lids, however complete otherwise, will e frustrated hy our contrary conduct. In all Christian countries men are 1 rained to a tender care of wives, lothers and sisters ; ami a chivalrous npulse to protect and provide for v elpless womanhood is often stronger i men than in most women. Those persons who love the hhsscd uise of Peace, as Christianity roniros, in all sincerity will ever say : If T forget thee, (> Peace! let my '| ght hand forget her cunning, and n< iy tongue cleave to the roof of my louth." Ventilate the huilding where your sultry is kept daily, no matter how >1(1 the day may lie. Let the foul air it and the fresh air in among the F rds. Thus only can you keep them S:i r-althy iu confinement. * COLUMBIA At GREENVILLE D1V CONDENSED SCHEDULE. im effect Arr.it. 28, 1SS9. (Trains run by 75th MerMiun time.)
