She- pleads seemingly in vain, ^--^^fota word comes from Him, and ber ^ ones provoke tbe disciples. 'She is ; . creating & stir, making' a scene; send P* ; . ber away, Master.' They would per? haps have ?sd Him fling lier what she ? ^wanted, to get rid of her, after the fash? ion nf the unjust judge. The Masters charity is slower and truer than theirs. He works within definite lines : 'I am ??'??}^- ?Ot sent but unto the lost sheep of^fr bouse of Taraelj' an j oarrowafr^fr i^r_ ' 'Kl^S nliyrT?nrii'inl to the Gentiles, it 5**T^M? the best thing for tbe Gentiles in ;: the end.

He meaos to Tbu mitfate her, it would seem ; but it only seems. 'It is not meet to take, the ; cbiJdrenV bread and cast ic to dogs.' - Can anything be harder ? There is not ?good word for 'dogs' in the whole ~::'J?fi\ -Bible?. She will surely pass out indjg nant and desp?r?ng. ??o- air mother's love makes h?&?0*> ?Qd even in g?n?>asr^ '?&?p?Lord, I come from ||?^~tue Gentiles. I know where we stand as towards the children of Israel ; they ? are the children of the household, we \ .are/but as dogs ; but the Master lets 5 - his dogs eat the crumbs which his chil? dren drop.' It is but a word, a word founded on His, but it changes the whole scjne. W0-\ It was meant to change it. Gentile .. . though she be, she has wrestled like . Jacob, and prevailed. The tone is al? tered now. The store of healing power, . 'apparently locked against her is now iwowa open, and she may have the desire of her heart. With a eulogium, Kke which there is but one other in the . Evangelist, she gets all she craves. 'Be it unto thee even as thou wilt.' Oh, burdened mother ! with that way? ward son, or that living grief, a heart less, godless daughter, crying all the days and nights for deliverance, and getting no-encouragement, study this heroic Greek. Do matters seem to get darker and darker ?- Do other disciples even discourage thy cries and effort ? Does-God Himself sometimes seem to - y 'Htty. to thee : *I love them that love Me ? Even you have not loved Me as you should? You know how you trailed V this, wanderer, and you reap as you have sowed ?' He is teaching while He tries you jr drawing oat your graces while He seems to go away from you. "Donot miter or faint. Say rather: 'True, Lord, I have sinned, but Thou forgtvest iniquity. My son, my daugh? ter is far from Thee, but Thou bringest nigh by the blood.' He will not resist the plea. Some day you will ?ee the . ?Bild, 'laid upon the bed'perhaps ; worn out and exhausted, bot 'whole.' For be is the same now as then, 'the same yesterday, and to-day, and forever. Rev. John Hatt, D D. CARLYLE OH THE BOOK OF JOB.-I cai! the book of Job, apart from all the? ories about it, one of the grandest things ever written with a pen. One feels, indeed, as if it were net Hebrew -such a noble university, different from noblc'patriotism or sectarianism, reigns in it. A noble book ! All men's book ! it is our first, oldest statement of the never-ending problem, man's des? tiny and God's ways with him here on earth. And all such free, flowing out? lines; grand in its simplicity, and its epic melody, and repose of reconcile? ment. There is the seeing eye, the mildly understanding heart. So true every way ; true eyesight and vision for all things, material things no less than spiritual ; the horse-'hast thou cloth? ed his neck with thunder ?'-he laughs at the shaking of the spear. Such liv? ing likenesses were never since drawn. Sublime sorrow, sublime reconciliation ; oldest choral melody as pf the heart of mankind ytio\ott and great as the som mer ?light, as tm?? worid with its seas snuffers I ThereNs nothing written, I tffc, in the Bitile or out of it, of scull literary merit. Ungoverned Natures. There have been of late several oc? currences, the reports of which have bad wide publicity, which have been indica? tive of the fact that there are man j per? sons to whom the term we have used above can be truthfully applied. For these incidents, though widely talked about, are after all, but samples of the results of a too-prevalent tone of mind. Here a young woman of remarkable personal beauty, io spite of the warn? ings of her parents, yields herself to bad company, and is found drowned. Whether it was an accident, or suicide through remorse, or murder, cannot yet be determined Bat, whatever it was, it was the ungoverned nature that led to the fatal end. A young married woman-the bride of a year-has a petulant dispute with her husband, and with a too-handy pistol puts an end to life. That her life had been shadow? ed by the dissipation of her hus? band, only makes the matter worse, for it reveals two ungoverned natures bound together, with the. inevitable increase of resultant misery. . One ca DD ot* take up a daily paper without seeing the record of ma&j crimes, and the incidents to which "we have referred are oat of the common simply from the fact that they have been.more bruited abroad. The world is full of these ungoverned natures, and the very air is dolorous with the cries of woe that their evil doing have caus? ed. * Even where the evil does not go to the length of crime, yet how much of mischief is wrought by this cause. Here is a home that ought to be the abode of peace, but it is filled with jan? gling. Parent quarrels will? parent, child with child. The parents are not self-controlled, and, consequently, can? not properly control their children; while the children are in a state of re? bellion against their parents, only re? strained, when restrained at all, by a sense of- servile fear. Here is a young man-'good-hearted' people call him bat he acts apon impulse. Perhaps he yields to the temptations of* what is falsely called 'good fellowship.' He allows himself to drift along on the cur? rent of his appetites, and becomes a sot. Or he does not want to appear 'mean,* i aod so indulges in extravagances ; the end very likely is peculation and then -ruhs! The young woman is flattered by the attentions of some stranger, and, despite the warnings of parents wiser than herself, rashly#> without weighing the matter, liuks her fate with his, only to find, when too late, that she is mismated, and must drag out an' exis? tence of marital infelicity. '.. The root of the evil lies far back. Any one who has opportunity cf obser? vation can see how frequently it ?* the case that children are not trained to obey. There will be, certainly, a mechanical obedience under a stern command ; but the spirit of obedience will be wanting. The children are not 'governed,' in any jost sense of tire term. They are permitted to folk their own wayward impo?^es^ex*cept when their conduct, C?M&? ioconven ience to their paren^gTOf the princi? ples of obed?eoce, of the claims of right and duty, they are left in utter ignor? ance. That there are multitudes of families constituted on this basis, the most casual observation will show. Parents are solemnly responsible be? fore God for the training of their chil? dren. They are to teach those children tho principles of self-government. No child is thoroughly obedient till he obeys, not ?imply because he must through fear of penalty, but because he chooses to obey because obedience is right. The constant mistake that is made is in not beginning early enough. The infant in the cradle ^"oe^Taugnf ?be?ycs?<^- -??-aoes not dofto wait, per? mitting the little one to have its own way, and expecting that later on you can control him. The question of obe? dience is essentially settled during the first year of a child's life. It can be settled without harshness, without undue severity, certainly without ?ny physical harm to the little one. Bott it must be settled, or the path is a straight on? to the full development of an /ungoverned nature with all its mischievous and evil consequences. Lawlessness in the state comes directly from lawlessness in the household. Crimes ag&inst proper? ty, against purity, against life, as weil as lesser evils, iojustice, gfeed, petty meanness, and tyranny, arti the direct outcome of the unchecked ebullitions of childish temper or wilfulness. No parent, to be sure, can jj change his child's heart ; that is God'spork, But the parent can teach his ch fid the prin? ciples of self-government. ^Perhaps, in teaching him obedience to parental- au? thority, he is at the same j time incul? cating in him submission to the divine authority. In any case the obedient child will make the most docile and symmetrical and serviceable Christian. If parents have neglected] their duty, and one ?ods himself approaching ma? turity, or even advanced"^! i fe, with? out having learned self-control, never? theless his duty is plain. ] The task will be hard, undoubtedly, but he must learn to govern himself. For his own sake, for the sake of others, no man bas a right to permit the mere impulses of bis nature to control Vs conduct. Anarchy in the individua?is just as evil in proportion as analhy in the state. fl We have discussed this ditter on the lower, however important, wane of its relation to our fellows. M There are higher considerations, which we com? mend to our readers, and with which we close. The all-imperative duty is to bring our nature into subjection to the perfect and holy will of God. Until this is done our nature will not be properly governed. When this is done in every one, the Millennium will have come!-Christian Weekly, ^ No school is more neccessary to chil? dren than patience, because: either the will must be broken in obilffcood or the heart in old age. Recall at night not only i.yonr busi? ness transactions ; but what - you have said to those to whom you bftve spoken during the day, and weigh in the bal? ance of conscience what you 'fjave utter? ed. If you have done full justice in all your remarks it is well. If you have not, then seek the earliest opportunity to make amends, and carefully avoid a repetition of the wroog. i_ For Science the volume of inspiration is the book of Nature Confronting all, it needs no societies for its ^dissemina? tion. Infinite in extent, etefcal in du? ration, human' ambition arid human fanaticism have never been able to tam? per with it. On the earth itjis illustra? ted by all that is magnificentfand beau? tiful, on the heavens its letters are suns and worlds.-Draper. Beautiful Thoughts. Cultivation to the mind is as necessa? ry as food is to the hody.-Cicero. Men must endure their going hence even as their coming hither ; ripeness is all.-Shakespeare. Choose always the way that seems the best, 'however rongh it may be. Custom will render it easy and agree? able.-Pythagoras. Truth comes to mortals gently, ten? derly and sweetly, filling them with a peace that passeth understanding. Error clouds, affrights, augers and debases the soul. By their respective fruits we may know them -Jarves. Whatever expands the affections or enlarges the sphere of our sympathies whatever makes us feel our relation to the Universe and all that it inherits in time and eternity, to the great and be? neficent Cause of all, must unquestiona? bly refine our nature and elevate ns in the scale of beiog.-Channing. -x. Mistakes rule the world, or very nearly so. ' Religion, politics, love, are alike their sport. We call the result to Ourselves fate, destiny, or any other name which will assuage wounded amour propre, or our disappointment in finding out, after a long and weary travel, that we have mistaken our road for want of proper attention to the sign? board.-Jarvee. The earth flourishes, or is overrun with noxious weeds and brambles, as we apply or withhold the cultivating hand. So fares it with-the intellectual system of . mao. If you are a parent, then, consider that the good or ill dis? positions and principles you please to cultivate in the mind of your infants may hereafter preserve a nation io pros? perity, or hang its fate on the point of the sword.-Horace Mann, Life to the mao of wisdom, is the harbinger of those benefits which Time's sickle cannot mow down or the chemis? try of death impair; or lessons which, whether heeded and treasured up or not in our early years, are the primal causes and necessary rudiments of an eternal education. The wise man thinketh that the life of this world, like a golden harp of infinite magnitude, yieldeth to the use made of it ; music floats out from its vibrating wires, or discord goes rolling' and winding through the tissues of beiog, just as we play upon it.-A. J. Davis. Disease is an effect, not a cause. Its origin is within ; its manifestations without. Hence, to cure the the disease the cause must be re? moved, and in no other waj can a core ever be effected. WARNER'S SAFE KIDNEY AND LIVER CURE is established on just this principle. It realizes that 95 Per Cent. of all diseases arise from deranged' kidneys and liver, and it strike? at once at the root of the difficulty. T??e elements of which it is , cc^oj^accauectly upon these greatorgans, Ttf?tb as a?food and restorer, aajl, bj placing \ them .in a beal tb/ condition, drive disease and pain from the system.
