He theu carefully wiped the eyes, and the film came off, when Iwhold! she wold again see, and continued to retain her sight till she died. This is a very wonderful ac count, and we can hardly thiuk such a tiling could happen, but it really occurred in the year 1814 in Switzer land. 1 suppose that the reason why more prayers of children and grown np jieoplc are not answered is because people do not Miter God will answer when they do pray to him. There to also auotbei account in this book of what took place in a German province. There was a school master who was very much beloved by his pupils. Oue day he was drafted to enter the army as a soldier. Ha would much sooner have stayed and taught the children, for be was a good mau and loved them very much; but be said that if God wished him to be a soldier that he ooukl do his duty in that position as well as in teaching, as he dismissed his school and prepared to leave. Hie scholars were greatly distressed at losing their kind teach er, and they mutually resolved to ask the Lork to return him to them. So they prayed to God a boat the matter, and when they were in the fieUft with their docks, of at work, they begged the Lord to bear them. At last the'day came for them to bid their teacher good byd, and with a sorrowful heart be went oil' to the place where the officer was to meet the new recruits. When his name was called and be stepped out, he was greatly amazed to hear the offi cer say, “Oo home, my good man, you are uot wautod here.” No other explauation was giveu. He returned to his beloved pupils, who received him back with joy, as an answer to their prayers to the Savionr. These few instances, out of nu merous other ones of the same kind, 1 have choeeu to show how readily the kind Father's ear listeus to a child's prayer. I thought when 1 read them, “Oh, it parents would pray just ia this simple, child like manner for their children that the Lord would surely hear them, and hearing, answer. If church mem bers would go and ask the Saviour to bless their pastor, and help them to hear and understand the mes sages which lie gives to them in bis lectures and aermous. how much better the pastor could fy-each, and bow much more eagerly the people would listen to aud obey the Holy Word. If Kabbath-acbool teachers aud scholars would thus pray for each other, bow soon the dear Lord would fill their hearts with a tort for his work, how easy it would be to attend the Sabbatli school, aud then teachers aud pupils would be interested iu learning about holy things, and would not wish to roam about Sabbath afternoons, or stay at home and lounge about and read story books, but they would gladly go to the house of God. Try it, dear frieude, aud iu prayiug for others you will receive benefits for yourfeelves.
