WHAT IS HEAVEN ?
BY UBS. L. E. AMIS.
Will any ransomed soul that enters Heaven,
Feel strange, or gad, or ever lonely there ?
What welcome shall be to the stranger
given?
. What sounds and voices first shall greet his
ear?
Shall all its scenes-be like some foreign land,
Where those we . know and loved while
here on earth
Are left behind, on some far distant strand,
In homes of human love, and human
birth? i
T Is Heaven to be but as a resting place,
From earthly toils and cares, and crowds
~ and strife?
. J. .
N^Where wearied souls find only ease and
space,
. Oh 1 tell me, then is this the heavenly
Ufe?
Or is it but the end of that long road
That, mortals each, must travel o'er
alone,
That fin al terminus-where res ts the load
Of cares and sorrows by each mortal
borne?
Ohl ask thy heart what home thy heaven
shall be,
Ask of the hungry soul, "what doth it
crave?"
Shall ease and space and rest suffice for
-thee?.
; Then why seek any heaven beyond thy
: .grava?
;? .
Oh! no-the grave's deep-rest can "net suf?
fice,
. The soul can not on emptiness be fed
The "space" and "ease" of heaven could
ne'er, entice
? " "Without- the glorious presence of its
Head.
?
Who lads thee to a horns of tender lom
Where all the yearnings of thy heart are
stilled;
? Thy weary, hungry soul like nestling dove,
Shall on His bosom rest-forever fiUtdi
Besult of Kindness.
A servant of the Kev. Rowland Hill
suddenly died, and bis master preached
: lis funeral sermon to a numerous . au?
dience, in the course of which he men?
tioned the following anecdote;-Many
.>?:."'vperaoos present were acquainted with
|?> we deceased, and have had it in their
power to observe his character and coa
duct. They can bear witness that I
speak the truth when I assert that he
&v. ; Bas proved himself a perfectly sober,
. honest, industrious and religious mao,
faithfully performing, as fer as it lay in
his power, the duties of his station in
"Efe, and serving God with constancy
-And zeal: yefc^ this very maa, this
v virtuous and pious man, was once a
rrobber on the . highway. More than 1
-thirty years ago he ?topped me on the
1 high-road and demanded my money, jj
J ??ot at all intimidated, I argued with j
r l?m. -I asked him what could induce j
Xvfcim to pursue so iniquitous a course of :
I"Hie. *I have been"a coachman, sir,'
?... ^gaidjhe, 'bat am out of place, and cot
; being We" to get a character ean
, ? get BO - employment am therefore
' bilged to resort to this means of
; gaining a subsistence.* I desired
r ; him to call upon me; he projnis
t ed he would, and kept his word. I
l talked further with him, and offered to
t take him into roy service. He consent
ed, and ever since that period he has
served me faithfully and not only me,
but he has faithfully served God. And
< instead of having finished his life in a
public ignominious manner, with a de?
praved and hardened mind, as he prob?
ably soon would have dooe, he has
died in peaee, rejoicing in hope, and j
prepared, we trust, for the society of j
just men made perfect.
Father's kneeling Place.
The children were playing 'Gide
the ''handkerchief.' I sat and watched
??hem a -long while and heard no
mankind wrord, and saw scarcely a
Tough movement; but after awhile,
little ?Jack whose turn 4t was to hide
.the handkerchief, went to the opposite
-end of the room, and tried to secrete it
tinder the cushion of a big chair,
dreddy immediately walked over to him
?and ?aid, in a lew, gentle voice, * Please
-Jack, don't hide she handerchief there,
ihat is father's kneeling-place.'
'Father's kcceling-place 1' lt seem?
ed like sacred ground to me as ic did
.tolittle Freddy; and by-by, as the
years roll on, and this place shall see
father no more forever, will not the
memory of this hallowed spot leave an
impression upon the young hearts that
time and change can never efface, and
remain as one of the oiost precious
memories of the old home? Oh, if
there were only a 'father's knecliog
place' in every family I The mother
kneels in her chamber and teaches the
little ones the morning and evening
prayer, but the father's presence is often
wanting; business and the cares of life
engross all his time, and though the
mother longs for his assistance and co?
operation in the religious education of
. the children, he thinks it is woman's
work, and leaves it all to her.
But in the pleasant room in which I
am sitting, among books and flowers
and singing birds, and the thousand
and one little things that make a family
parlor always homelike and cheerful,
there is one sacred spot known only to
dear little Freddy's heart as 'father's
keeling-place. '-Exchange.
Cannot go Back.
It is a solemn thought. The past
never returns. The path we have al?
ready trodden cannot be walked over
again. Deed3 and words of the past
are buried in the eternity behind us.
Every moment, every breath is push?
ing us forward to the eternity beyond.
We are made for immortality. The
record of our lives is fixed. The' past
is forever gose, the future beckons us
onward, eternity is our life-time, and
yet we know not what a day may briDg
forth. *I wish 1 had never been bora,'
said David Brainerd to his mother,
when he was an impenitant lad, yet
wrought upon by the Holy Spirit, "I
wish I had never been born,' you are
born David,' was the mother's calm re?
ply, which remark only sent the arrow
of conviction deeper into his soul.
You reader, are born,-you cannot go
back : yon-m?isi live and live forever.
The questionof unutterable importance
is, 'where w?j?^^|^?ve-will you live

Mfa
Ancient Babylon.
Babylon was the paradise of archi?
tecture. Driven out from thence, the
more elaborate structures of modern
times are only the evidence of her fall.
After the site of Babylon had been se
; lected two million men were employed
; for the construction of the wall and prin?
cipal works. The walls of the city were
sixty miles in circumference. They
were surrounded by a trench out of
which had been dug the material for the
construction of the city. There were
twenty-five gates of solid brass on each
side of the square city. Between every
two gates a great watch tower sprang
up into the heavens. From each of the
twenty-five gates on either side a street
ran through to the gate on the other
6ide, so that there were fifty streets,
each fifteen miles long, which gave to
the city an appearance of wonderful
[regularity. The houses did not join
' each other on the ground, and between
them were gardens and shrubbery. |
From house top to house top were j
bridges swung, over which the inbabi- j
tan ts were accustomed to pass.
A branch of the Euphrates went
through the city, over which a bridge
of marvellous structure was thrown, and
under which a tunnel ran. To keep
the river from overflowing the city in
times of a freshet a great . lake was ar?
ranged to catch the surplus, in which
the water w?s kept as in a reservoir
until times of drouth, when it was sent
streaming down over the thirsty land.
A palace stood at each end of the Eu?
phrates bridge ; ono palace a mile and
three-quarters.in compass, and the oth?
er palace seven and a half miles in cir?
cumference. The wife of Nebuchadnez?
zar, having been brought up among the
mountains of Media, could not stand it
in this fiat country of Babylon, and so,
to please her, Nebuchadnezzar had a
mountain four hundred feet high, built
in the midst of the city. The moun?
tain was surrounded by terraces for the
support of which great arches were lift?
ed. On the top of the arches flat stones
were kid ; then a layer of reeds and
bitumen ; then two rows of bricks close?
ly cemented ; then thick sheets of lead,
upon which the soil was placed. The
earth here deposited was so deep that
the largest trees had room to anchor
their roots. All the glory of the flow?
ery topics was spread out on that tre
mendeous height, until it most have
seemed to one below as though the
clouds were all in blossom, and the very
sky leaned on the shoulder of the ce?
dar. At the top an engine was con?
structed, which drew the water from
the Euphrates, far below, and made it
spout up amid this garden of the skies.
All this to please his wife ; she must
have been pleased we think.
In the midst of this city stood also
the temple of Belus. One of its towers
was one-eighth of a mile high, and on
the tcp of it an observatory, which gave
the astronomers great advantage, as,
[being at so great a height, one could
ettsily talk with the stars. This temple
vftLS foll of cups and statues and cen?
saos, all of gold. One image weighed
& thousand Babylonish talents, which
?ill be equal to fifty million dollars.
But w by enlarge ? The city is besieged
asd doomed. Though provisioned for
twen ty years, it shall fall to-night. See
the g oh?, and silver plate flash on the
king's uble. Pour out the rich wine
from thc: tankards into the cups. Brink,
my lords, to the health of the'king:
Drinik to the glory of Babylon, Drink
to the defenders of the city. Drink to
tho glorious future. Startle not at the
splashed wine on the table as though it
were blood. Turn not pale at the clash
of the cups, as though it wereihe clang
of anns.
Buri alas I alas ! great Babylon amid
the drunken revelry of king and court
was cast down in a single night as be
tokened by the "hand writing upon the
wall"-a lesson for all succeeding time.
Let Atoertcans be a sober people, then
shall years of peace and prosperity fol?
low.
Am I Growing.
No Christian can afford to stand still.
As a matter of fact he cannot bc" sta?
tionary . He must of necessity either
go forward or backward. There is in
the character of every person, whether
profess ing Christian or not, a constant,
regular, unceasiug growing, either bet?
ter or worse. It is important for every
Christian to know beyond a question
whether, day by bay, he is growing
stronger in the Christian life, or weak?
er. Often this is a most difficult ques?
tion:, and not infrequently it gives sin?
cere, earnest Christians serious trouble
of mind. It is well to. remember that
I we cannot always be conscious of Chris
I tian growth, even though we may con?
stantly be growing stronger and better.
There arc so many points at which we
are liable to be temporarily overcome
? by temptation (and the great Tempter
j knows them all much better than we
! can,) that when one of these is assailed
we give way to despondency and are apt
to feel that we are losing instead of
gainiug in real Christian strength,
i Years ago there was a grand old oak
I under whose wide spreading branches
we used to play with our youthful com?
panions and find shelter aud protection
from the heat of the Summer's sun.
i The storms came and beat upon it, and
j its branches were swayed and bent by
them, but when the storm ceased the
grand old tree stood there still in the
! magnificence of its strength, unharmed
j and really stronger because of its con
? ?ict with the elements. We never
! could see it grow, and after years of ab
! sence, when we return to it, we could
! scarcely notice that it was larger thau
when we went away. But it was larg?
er, and the storms that had beat upon
ifc had not marred its grandeur or its
beauty but had made it strouger and
the better abie to withstand others.
All those years it had been growing
growing slowly, it is true, but still
growing.
So it may be with the Christian.
His growth may not bo rapid, but if he
will put. his trust in God, live in thc
glory of his sunshine, and '-raw upon
? him with faith, as the oak draws
i strength from the air and tVotn the
; earth, there will be a continuous and
i steady growth. Then when thc storm*
? come, as they do come to us ali, they
j will beat upon him in vain, and these
j very storms will show him, vastly bet
j ter than the calm, bright days ever
i could, that be is growing stronger day
I by day. We write these words for the
! encouragement of those who are earn
! estly seeking strength but who may
j sometimes feel that they are j^r^ng
1 nothing in the struggle. The growth
may. perhaps- be slow, but with tho
experience of faith and trust and pray
er it will be sure and constan
Out-Done By a Boy.
A lad in Boston, rather small for his
age, works in an office as an errand
boy for four gentlemen who do business
there. One day, the gentlemen were
chaffing him a little about being so
small, and said to him.
'You will never amount to much, you
never can do much business you are too
small.'
The little fellow looked at them.
.Well,' said he, 'as small as I am, I
can do semething that neither of you
four men can do.'
'Ah, what is that Y said they.
'I don't know as 1 ought to tell you.'
he replied.
But they were anxious to know, and
urged him to tell what he could do
that neither of them were able to
do.
4I can keep from swearing,' said the
little fellow.
There were some blashes on four
manly faces, and there seemed to be
very little anxiety for farther informa?
tion on the point.
Early Feeding and Vitality.
Investigations made in Germany
concerning the comparative vitality
of children under various methods of
feeding exhibit some peculiar results.
Thus, of 100 children nursed by their
mothers only 18.2 died during the first
year; of those nursed by wet nurses,
29 33 died ; of those artificially fed, 60
died ; and of those brought up in in?
stitutions, 80 died to the 100. Again,
taking 1,000 well-to-do persons and
1,000 poor persons, there remained of
the prosperous, after five years, 943,
while of the poor only 650 re?
mained alive; after fifty years there
remained of the prosperous, 557 and
only 283 of the poor ; at seventy years
of age there remained of the prosperous
235, and but 65 of the poor. The to?
tal average length of life among thc
well-off class was found to be fifty
years as against thirty-two among the
poor.

noted for his liberality, wept when the
pastor made a plea for missions, 'My

Disease is an efiVci, not a cause. Iis origin
is within; its manifestations without. Hence,
to cure the the disease the cause must be re?
moved, ?nd in no other way can a cn re 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 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 caused by un?
healthy Kidneys, Liver and Urinary Organs;
for the distiessing Disorders of Women ; for
Malaria, and for physical derangements gen?
erally, this great remedy has no equal. Be?
ware cf imposters, imitations and concoctions

Ague Cure
Is a purely vegetable bitter and power?
ful tonic, and is warranted a speedy and
certain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills
and Fever, Intermittent or Chill Fe?
ver. Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical or Bilious Fever, and alt
malarial disorders. In ' miasmatic dis?
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst,
lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the bade
and loins, aud coldness of the spine and
extremities,, are only premonitions -of
severer symptoms, which terminate in the
ague paroxysm, succeeded by high fever
and profuse perspiration.
It is a startling fact, that quinine, arse?
nic and other poisonous minerals, form the
basis of most of the "Fever and Ague
Preparations," "Specifies," ** Syrups," and
"Tonics," in the market. Th? prepara?
tions made from these mineral poisons,
although they aro palatable, and^ may
break the chill, do not cure, but leave the
malarial and their own drug poison in
the system, producing quinism, dizziness,
ringing ia the ears, headache, vertigo, and
otlier disorders more formidable than the
disease they were intended to cure.
AYER'S AGUE CURE thoroughly eradicates
these noxious poisons from the system,
and always cures tho severest cases. It
contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injure the most delicate pa?
tient; and its crowning excellence, above
its certainty to cure, is that, it leaves tho
system as free from disease as before tho
attack.
For Liver Complaints, AYZR'S AOVTR
CCRE, by direct action on tho liver and
biliary apparatus, drives out the poisons
which produce these complaints, and stim?
ulates the system to a vigorous, healthy
condition.
