~~ SLUMBER SONG.
Id the winged cradle of sleep I lay
. }Sy darling gently down ;
Kissed and closed are his ejes of gray,
_ Fader his curls'bright crown.
Where oh where will he fly and float,
. la- the winged cradle of sleep?
Whom will be meet in the worlds remote.
While be slumbers soft and deep ?
Warm and sweet as a wLite blush-rose,
His small band lies in mine,
v; 'But I cannot follow him where he goes,
:>.".- A^nd he gives me ho word nor sign.
v Keep him safe, ye heavenly powers,
In the dream-land vast and dim I
"Let no ill, through the night's long honrs,
* <Come nigh to trouble him.
- vr "Giye hier back, when the dawn shall break,
- With his matchless baby charms, .
^With his love and beautv all awake,
% . Into, my happy arms I
The Love of Christ.
-.. 'The love of Christ constrainetb us y
Here is a declaration of power and of
the principles that underlie his power.
H -Here is the setting forth of the mighty
?'' motive that impelled, and the reasons
why that motive was so powerful
Here is a *fact' and a 'because.' 'The
love of Christ constrainetb us'?that is
the fact; and the because here?*We
% thus judge, that if one died for all, then
were all dead-' Here is a power, then,
and a principle. The power is the love
- of Christ. 4The love of Christ con
straineth us' is the power, and that
- word 'constraineth' may mean, and
;t; does mean, three things. In the origi
ll- Hjial it means to hold?toiiold together,
J:-*' and it means also-to impel. The pow
er of the love of Christ is the grappling
force, first of all. Yoa notice that there
& ;r is a mighty difference between getting
: hold of a thought or of a thing, and
. having the thought or the thing get
: hold of you Every preacher under
stands the difference. Pauls give us a
cue to the real meaning of the test
^ when he says that in his personal expe
. - rienceand in his ministry he strove to
apprehend and lay hold of that for which
the Lord .laid hold of him. The Lord,
in his love, layshold upon us; and
very beautifully was it put by an old
contraband, (for so they called them
' during the war,) whom I met with when
4oing service in the Christian Commis
sion in Virginia. The white-headed
black man came to me, an<H asked him
of his state. He said he was a Chris
tain, and had been for fifty years, and
^ ~1 said to him, 4Having held to it so
^Idnjj I should think you would reel
quite confident of holding out to the
^_ end.' *But, master,' he answered, *it
is not my holding out, but the Lord's
holding out, that I trust in. I am get
ting old and trembling, and if it had
be^en-simply my holding on to him,
some time I might have let go and be
lost.' ~ It was not my hand holding on
vto; his, but hjs hand holding on to mine,
that saved me; for he said, 'They shall
l^pever? pluck theur out of my hand.''
It is the Lord in Lis lo^^^^-gfts
hold of us. There is nothir^Hp^as such
a grip as the love of ChJKt% rescue, a
om thede^rT^rxiint from the
aws"bf deatnTfrom the gates of hell.
A man whose body is debauched, whose
reason is dethroned, in a sense, whose
conscience is seared, upon whom even
the voice of earthly love proves unavail
ing ; a man who has gone down even
tbejthird'time; a man who. seems lost
- to- honor, shame?the love of Cbrist can
.'-get "hold even of such a man, and surely,
and, set him on his feet and make a man
of him again. You have seen it; you
have realized it in your own experi
ence, some of you. The love of Christ
not only has power thus to lay hold of
a man, but to hold him together ; first
of all to hold together the faculties of
one's own soul.?Dr. P. S. Senson.
Alabaster Boxes of Human
Sympathy.
Do not keep the alabaster boxes of
your love and tenderness sealed up
until your friends are dead. Fill their
Bves-with.sweeiness. Speak approving,
cheering words while their ears can
hear them and while their hearts can
be thrilled and made happier by them;
^ the kind things you mean to say when
. they are gone, say before they go.
- The flowers you mean to send for their
coffins, send to brighten and sweeten
their homes before they leave them.
If my friends have alabaster boxes,
laid away, full of fragrant perfumes of
sympathy and affection, which they in
tend to break over ray dead body, I
would rather they would bring them out
in my weary and troubled hours, and
open them, that I may be refreshed and
. cheered by them while I need them. I
would rather have a plain coffin with
out a flower, a funeral'witbout a eulogy,
I than a life without the sweetness of love
and sympathy. Let us learn to anoint
our friends beforehand for their burial.
Post mortem kindness does not cheer
the burdened spirit. Flowers on the
coffin cast no fragrance backward over
: the weary way.
? M ? <A
Age of Methodism-Samuel a
' Circuit Rider."
An old Methodist lady was drawn
into a discussion about the age of her
Church. She could not endure the
taunt that it was no older than John
Wesley. She was soon casting about
for a base line for operations. She
. went back to the days of Christ, John
the Baptist, and the Apostles, and
having started back, she kept on go
ing to the amazement of the other dis
putant, who thought the days of the j
Apostles a good enough place to stop.
Imagine her triumph when she ex
claimed, 'We were at work in the
times of Samuel. Samuel was a cir
cuit rider. You will find it in 1
Samuel, ch. vi, and verses 35, 16, 17.
They read as follows: 'And Samuel
jadged Israel all the days of his life.
Aod he went from year to year in cir
cuit to Bethel and Gilgal, and Mizpah,
and judged Israel in all those places.
And his return was to Ramah; for
there was his bouse; and there he
judged Israel; and there he bu:lt an
altar unto the Lord.'
These old Methodist women, with
spectacles are hard to head in an
argument when their blood is fairly
up. " I like the way she went back in
arranging for the battle.
Earthly things must remind us of
heavenly. We must translate the book
of nature into the book of grace.
Ridley and Latimer at tiie
Stake.
The night before his death Ridley
snpped with the family of the mayor.
At the table no shade of the stake dark
ened bis face or safV.ened bis talk. He
invited bis hostess to his marriage; her
reply was a burst of tears, for which he
chid her as if she were unwilling to be
present on so joyous an occasion, saying
at the same time, 4My breakfast may
be sharp, but I am sure my supper will
be most sweet.' When he rose from
the table, his brother offered to watch
with him all night 'No, no/ replied
he; *I shall go to bed and (God willing)
shall sleep as quietly to-night as ever I
did in my life.' The place of execution
was a ditch by the north wall of the
town, over against Baliol College. Rid
ley came first, dressed in his black fur
red gown and velvet cap, walking be
tween the mayor and an alderman. As
he passed Bocardo, where Cranmer was
cod fined, he looked np expecting to see
the archbishop at the window, and ex*
change final adieus with him. Cranmer,
as Foxe informs us, was then engaged
in debate with a Spanish friar, but learn
ing soon after that bis fellow-prisoners
had passed to the stake, the archbishop
hurried to the roof of his prison, whence
be beheld their martyrdom, and on his
knees begged God to strengthen them
in their agony, and to prepare him for
bis own. On his way to the stake,
Ridley saw Latimer following him?the
old man making what haste he could.
Ridley ran, and, folding him in his
arms, kissed him, saying, 'Be of strong
heart, brother; for God will either as
suage the fury of the flames, or else
strengthen us to abide it.'
They kneeled down and prayed, each
by himself; afterwards they talked to
gether a little while, 'but what they
said,' says Foxe, *I can learn of no
man.* After the sermon usual on such
occasions, both undressed for the fire,
Latimer, stripped by his keeper, stood
in a shroud. With His garments he
seemed to have put off the burden of
his many years. His bent figure in
stantly straightened, withered age was
transformed into what seemed vigorous
manhood; and standing bolt upright,
he looked 'as comely a father as one
might lightly behold.' All was now
ready. An iron chain had been put
around the martyrs, and a staple driven
in to make it firm. The two were fas
tened ajb one stake. A lighted fagot
was brought and laid at Ridley's feet.
Then Latimer addressed his companion
in words still fresh?after three centu
ries?as on the day on which they were
uttered: 'Be of good comfort, Master
Ridley, and play the man ; we shall this
day light such a candle, by God's grace,
in'England, as I trusc shall never be
put out." The flames blazed up rapid
ly and fiercely. Latimer bent towards
them, as if eager to embrace those min
isters, terrible only in appearance,
which were to give bira exit from a
wor-ld of sorrow into the bliss eternal.
Stroking bis face with his hands, he
speedily, and with.little pain departed.
Not so Hidley. iTis Bufferings were
protracted^??d . severe.* The fagots
piled higB^an,^ jdly_|ajojMt4^4tt9^
stifledtj^fi>^ri'es. aticf Ms^lower extrem
i,^eT^^e"Brf^i/^[nic the upper part
of his body was. untouched, and his gar
ments on one side were hardly scorched.
'I cannot barn,' he said, 'let the fire
come to me.' At last he was under
stood ; the upper fagots were pulled
away; the flan\es rose; Ridley leaned
towards them; and crying: 'Lord
Jesus, receive my spirit!' his body
tamed over the iron chain, the legs be
ing already consumed and he fell at
Latimer's feet.?History of Protestant
ism.
An Injurious Practice.
The practice of keeping children after
school hours, as a punishment has noth
ing to recommend it. Pretty nearly
every school house in the land is thus
turned into a penitentiary in which
children are immured every day, some
of them for imperfect recitations, for
faults of deportment. This method of
punishment might, if the teachers were
ail judicious, be resorted to occasion
ally with good effect; but teachers are
not all judicious, and thousands of chil
dren are thus detained every day to
whom the detention is serious injury,
and a grave injustice. For some tri
fling breach of order, like turning in
the seat or dropping a pencil, for some
small failure'in a recitation, or a simi
lar trifle which can scarcely be called a
fault at all, the children are shut up in
the school houses, somtimes during the
intermission, often after the close of
school. Thousands of children in
health, to whom the regular school
hours are too long, are permanently
injured by this system of confinement.
It should be abolished at once.
1 ? ? mm
Do the truth you know, and you
shall learn the truth you need to
know.
Old truths are always new to us if
they come with the smell of heaven
upon them.
It is not talking, but walking with
God, that gives a man the denomination
of a Christian.
The Christian must expect opposition
from the world, because he is going
just the contrary road from the multi
tude, and has to pass through them.
There are words which can separate
hearts sooner than sharp swords;
there are words whose sting can re
main in the heart through a whole
life.
No church member has the right to
be ajuoere spectator in a revival. No
general with his staff only can win a j
battle. Let all move together upon the
enemy.
Inasmuch as we are-told to 'rejoice
in the Lord always,' there is no limi
tation to our happiness, either as to its
extent or duration, providing it is in
the Lord.
If a man makes money at the ex
pense of his virtues he dishonors his
soul. He sells honor for gold. All
the gold on earth is of no value com
pared with virtue.
Looking within us, we find in con
science an observatory higher than
that of physical science ever was, from |
which to gaze upon the supreme bar- j
monies of the universe.
It is hard to personate and act a
part long, for where truth is not at the
bottom, nature will always be eudevor
ing to return, and will peep out and
betray itself one time or another.
You complain because you are one
of the few who carry the burdens of
your church. Yeu will not be sorry
when with the elect few, you hear your i
Lord say, 'Well done good and faithful
servant.'
The Sleeping Room.
If possible, let the sun have full
play in your sleeping room, penetrating
to every nook and cranny. Make as
little use as possible of artificial lights,
not so much because of the well known
fact that light is antagonistic to sleep,
as that, even when the lights are extin
I guished, the effects of combustion in a
close receptacle bring discomfort to the
sleeper. The mistake, then, is to con
i vert a sleeping room into a reading
room. The less time that a ?as
! light, even a candle light, is left
burning in a bedroom the better.
We should try to retire at about the
same time every night. Extension of
the time when a person ought to go to
sleep somehow breaks upon the rhythm
of labor and rest which physicians un
derstand so well. Keep wide-staring
awake too long over your work or your
amusements, and after a time, longer or.
shorter, the capability to sleep at all
has fled. The sleeping room should
be kept spotlessly clean, aud re-papered
at least once in every three years
things get poisonous without our realiz
ing it, seriously affecting our sleep and
inconsequence our health.
The house is spiritually empty so
long as the pearl of great price is not.
there, although it may be hung with
all the decorations of earthly know
ledge.
Emerson believed in immortality.
He believed that all great natures love
stability and permanence. 'Everthing
here,' he says, 'is prospective.' 'The
mind delights in immense time.' We
are not interested in anything which
ends.' 'All I have seen teaches me
to trust the Creator for what I have
not seen.' 'All the ways of virtuous
living lead upward and not downward.'
Every wakeful moment should be
usefully employed. God lends them to
us. He will call as to a strict account
for their usage. They have wings that
waft their own record of our use of
them on high. When once past, they
can never return to us. But their
misuse will come back to us with fearful
condemnation by-and-by, or their right
employment shall add stars to our crown
of rejoicing forevermore.
Disease re-eu 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 way can a cure ever
be effected- WARNER'S SAFE KIDNEY
AND LIVER CURE is established on jnst
this principle. It realizes that
95 Per Cent.
of all diseases arise from deranged kidneys
and liver, and it strikes at once at the root of
the difficulty. The elements of which it is
composed act directly upon these great organs,
both as a food and restorer, and, by placing
them in a healthy condition, drive disease
and pain from the system.
For the innumerable troubles cansed by un
healthy Kidneys, Liver and Urinary Organs;
for the distressing Disorders of Women; for
Malaria, and for physical derangements gen
erally, this great remedy has no equal. Be
ware of imposters, imitations and concoctions
said to be just as good.

Hair Vigor y
FOR RESTORING GRAY HAIR TO ITS
. NATURAL VITALITY ANO COLOR*
It is a most agreeable dressing, which
is at once harmless and effectual, for pre
serving the hair. It restores, with , the
gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray,
light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep
black, as may be desired. By its use thin ^
hair is thickened, and baldness often
though not always cured. It checks falling
of the hair immediately, and causes a new
growth in all cases where the glands are
not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
and strength, and renders it pliable.
The Vigor cleanses the scalp, cures and
prevents the formation of dandruff; and,
by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing
properties, it heals most if not all of the
humors and diseases peculiar to the scalp,
keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under
which conditions diseases- of the scalp and
hair are impossible.
As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair
The Vigor is incomparable. It is color
less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will
not soil white cambric It imparts an
agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed in its excellence.
