A sweet, nflfectionato child, findin< that hor father Imd gone to his daili business without a farewell kiss fron hor, caught up her little hood an< cloak to follow him. But sho win told that ho was ajready far out o sight, that sho could not find him am would bo lost in the great city. Look wig out of the window, her faco brigh toned, as who said, "O, mamma, bu 1 couldn't get lost, for 1 see all his foot Hops in tho new enow. I'll put mj foot first in one, und then in anothor and another, ard eviry one, till I go to hiB storo, and there I'll find inj dear papa." ,;But, my child," said-tho mother "tho Btroot is full of footprints; altoi you leavo your own doorsteps yoi would soon lose your -father's and might follow some naughty or unkiot person for whom you do not caro." "O, mamma, doar I" cxclaimcd the child, in a reproving tono, '.'don't yoi ihink ,1 know my father' footstep! from any other man's. Be suro }. do.' How sweet and touching this lesson to our reluctant hearts. Thii littlo one could not he happy without seeing her father, and was willing tc brave t! e lceon air and to meet strange faces in search lor him. So strong was her love thai she felt suro thai sho could divine the path he hiid cho son, and distinguish his footprints from those any othor. llow ollen do those who profess tc follow Je^is wheresoever he goeth, fail to even rains him when ho loavof them for a season; far less do the}' seek for his footprints, sure that they can distinguish them from those ol any false leader. Many who aro quite willing to put their foot in the prints of his, as he entored glory, eannoi begin whore he did on earth. They are willing tc accept a place in his kingdom; bu< tbev cure not to nntar it Lhi^nnorli Mm valley of humiliation and the ihorny road of repentuncc.

ILow often do wo hour church memberB talk of "following Jeans," when we well know he has left no foot prints on the Bunny heights and noisy plain whero they have boon. Those blessed feet in their weary journey*, never entered the scone of guy and iuaJ frivolity, nor yot joined in tbe wild deluding chase after gold or earthly fiime. in going these ways, those who bettrhis name have mistaken hit foot prints for tbat of oue who will Hlirnlu Ina rt fl.om o?. ? ~.J """"J Sad will it bo for us, if, as wo descend into the dark valley, wo cunnot discern tho foot priolsof Him wL*o it "Lho way, tho truth and tho life.'
