Ahoul iiOO year.; ai^<>, way hack in the dark ai^os, (dark because there were only a tew Bibles in the world.) a poor little hoy went from door t*? door, sin^iiit* Ibr his hread. As this hoy ?rcv.' up. he tried to learn all couM, ami l.e Ufjil a great thinking t>V'.*r ittl he ?!s<I learn. At l:i<t when he became ?ji:il?- n j:!:im, he went into ;i Cutholie liostso where lie loll in I ii ^ 1?iI 1 e chained. This Bible he began . I to read, and as he read tlie J I? >l_y (ihost entered his heart, and told him what the words meant. The Lord ( saw that this man was sincerely seeking to know what (Jod had to j say to him. The precious Spirit will tell you, if you want to know very ' much indeed, like Dr. Martin Luther did. ( As he kept on reading and think- , ing, theJloly (iltost constantly* poured more light noon his soul. just like the ' early dawn of morning gives place to t!rj i'n!I day, A Her a while this man j grew strong enough .to hear the light, and then ho saw that lie was :i los-.l ' si is jut, an<l needed a Saviour. TJien Jesus pitied him, and came whisperii*?r in his soul, that he loved him so 1 much, and freely forgave his sins. This made Dr. Luther so happy that 1 he could not. help telling everybody he met. how much the dear Saviour loved sinners, and how ready lie is t<> ' save them, if they oniy <^ivo up their :ins. * ! This was news indeed lo these poor, 1 i -noranl people, and it spread 1 i!cc 1 lire amo:i?j dry grass. JSvery woman * loM ht r neighbor; did you hear it. : you n.ued not pray to .Mary and the ' saints, but go right lo Jesus, and lie 1 will Mivo you, ju-l now. Those tickets they sell us to .si!! against Clod aro worth nothing; wo will go to hell unles.i Christ saves u:>. This grand man continued talking to ill.; people, till the 1'ope at J'ome grew very angry, and brought hint up Tor trial. But he was like a great oak against the storm, they could not bond him ; he told his friends that if the devils from hell were 011 all tho housetops, he meant to go. "When the Catholics brought 3>r. .Luther before tho Emperor's Court at Worms, (the same city whero his monument is now erected.) he said: "Jlore I stand, I cannot do otherwise. (lOl) HELL1 JME." He meant by this, that he would dare to do right?to stand by CJod's truth, come what would. He stood linn as a rock, with Jo.surt ?vor near him. The Lord says, they thai 1 honor Mo, I will honor. Tho great ^ Luther honored Christ before Emperors and kings, and though so many C years dead, Jesus is not done paying him back yet. Now, at this same city, even Worms, tho pcoplo build triumphal arches for tho king, dukes j and great of earth to pass under, t that they may behold unveiled this i monument to Dr. Luther's honor. I Had my Littio Ones been there c willi the (Jerinan children who march- 1 cd in the profession, llioj' would have i scon Iho pretty flags of all nations < hanging l'rom the windows, the houses 1 dressed with wreaths and flowers, i and at night tho grand illumination, i I think I should liko to liavo heard 1 tho grand shout to Jesus given by that i vast crowd, when Rev.

I should like I to havo seen also that party of young i ladies dressed in white and crowned t with wreaths who covered the bronze < statue with flowers. Not only so, but i wo would hrivo heard Imn/liw/l ! singera thanking the Lord for Dr. Luthcf'a noble life, while llio bells chimed forth their joy, and the cannons roared it, to every peal of which i the people's hearts baid, too are so glutl.
