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. Tho glory in
the foot printB which ccased at his ex
altation ; but not in those tbat led tc
it through Getbsomane.
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

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.'
Uunyan tells os that when Mr. Stands
last had jjoimj down in tho river, be
said to bis companions who bad followed
aim thither;"This river hatli
been a terror to many; yea, the
thougblsoi it, alsOjbavo often frightened
me. Now, metbinksl stand easy]
my foot is fixed upon that on which
the feet of the priest that boro the
ark of the covenant stood, while Israel
passed over Jordan X sou
tny?elf now at tho end of my Joornoyn;
my toilsome days are ended.

"Sbo is unmarried." '-.Sue is visiting

Thero are a few ?k-op in tho secrets
of diplomacy, of icgi.ilativo venaln.y,
governmental prostitution, who uin
tell 3'ou that she is one ' Jt tlio nvM ?ui>tle
and most dangerous of lobyl Aa.
She is but one of tho class always
beautiful and always huceesslul. Sbo
piays for large btakes, but ?be always
wins. Tho men t?ay to her, ''Securo
my appointment, make Kure my promotion,
atji i will pay so many thoaBand,"
usually gets his appointment,
and she her thousands. Dries sho
want lika a suppliant? Not at all.

in promiscuous assemblage?
