The subject of the meeting was Chioa.] I have read of a fax distan t country .Far over the. ocean awav, " Where the people go down in their darkness, And a multitude die every day ; " Ko Jesus to light up the valley, No Saviour to whom they can pray, Not "a promise or hope for tbe future, But nigh t which has never a day... ^Lh^veread that their-gods are so many -Ko one can their nurahe** proclaim ; They* are wide as the thought canimagine, And their worshippers are just the same Their Bible is wordspf-Gonfocius ; . No life to the soul can they give, - But the death which they die is eternal, A million each month cease to live.

The Poetiy of the Throttle Valve, Not long a?o an--engineer brought i T?i^?aiiitito a stand-still at a little Mas sacuaset? village, where the .passen % gers have five minutes for lunch. A lady came along the platform and said^: "-. ?The conductor tells me the train at the juaction in F- leaves fifteen minutes be fore our arrival It is Saturday-tnghtL; that is the last train. I have a very sick child in the car, and no moue y for . a hotel, and none for private couvey " ancc a long, long way into the country. Whatsballldor 'Well,'said the engineer, 'I wish I could tell you.' ^ Would it be possible for yon to . hurry a little V~ said the anxious, tear ful mother: 'No, madam, I have the time-table, and the rules say I must run by it.' She turned sorrowfully away. Pres ently she returned and said, 'Are you a 1 Christian V' *t trust I am,1 was the reply. ^^^'?Y.iil you .pray with me that tbe " Lord may-iu.some way delay the train at tbe junction ? _^" 'Why, yes, I will pray with ycu, but I have not much faith.' Just then the conductor cried, 'All aboard.* The poor woman hurried back to the deformed" and sick child, and away went the train climbing the grade. Somehow,' said the engineer,'every thing worked like a charm. As ? praJed I couldn't help letting my en gine^Qut just a little. We hardly stop ped a$ the first station, people got on and o^ with wonderful alacrity, tbe conductor's lantern was in the air in a ^ half iminute, and then away again. Once-^mi^^summk it was dreadful easy to give here* a little more, and there alittle more as I prayed; tili she seemed to shoot through the air like an arrow. Somehow I couldn't hold her, knowing I" had the road, and so we dashed'op to tbe junction six minutes - ahead of time.' JEocre stood the other train, and the conductor with the lantern on his arm. * Well,' said he, 'will you' tell me whai ' I am waiting here for? Somehow, T felt I must await your coming to-night, but I don't know why.' *I guess,1 said the brother conductor, 'it is foi this poor woman, with ber sick anc deformed child, dreadful anxious to ge home this Saturday night.' But thj man on the engine and the gratefu mother think they can tell why th< train waited.' Against Anxiety. "is distrust of God, therefore, whicl lies at the root of unlawful anxiety A feeble apprehension of God, as th< agent who overrules everything, andde -termines those causes which lie oursicii of oar reach, and those events whicl escape our foresight?this it is whicl .shakes the-'soul with vague uncertainty and fills with causeless alarms tb< drunkenness of to-morrow. The doub whether God, who counts for so mucl in tbe contingencies of life, be oc< whose attitude to us may be wholly trusted, or the suspicion that we ma liave really as much to dread as to hopi "Ibrfrom his superintendence?this it i which cannot but unsettle a man's stead fest outlook rote tbe coming days an< toss his spirit to and fro-in the restless ness of distraction- Because we are {o little faith/ tht.efore are we not con tent to plan and work, and havioj planned and wrought, to sit and wait ^affd must fidget ourselves about tha which may "be, until impatience gnaw; ns like a worm, and our imagination picturing disaster in the dark, burns u Kke fire. Why is it that popular pro verbs attest how much worse ar< fancied ills than real ones, and how th< evils which we most dread never over take us; but just because thisv. distrust ful human heart of ours is so prone ti prophesy.j&rid so lively to exaggerati misfortune ? LikelTsobTn;i)gr-^trrrrf? breath from a serener world, then comes down upoD the feverish, self tormenting spirits of men this word o one who was the messenger of hin whom we distrust : 'Be not ap.xiom about your life ; be not anxious abou ffo-morrow/?Dr. Dyhes.

Eadv in the spring of the year I came to England for borne affairs that required, my presence. ?. weut to London, intending to regain a fort night, winch would complete the matter for which I bad been summoned, and then to. proceed into the country. A few days after my arrival, how ever, I was seized with severe illness. My couch was in a small apartment on the ground floor looking in the street. A longiug for that which was denied me came to disturb yet more that of in action. " I craved for the fresh pure air of the country. There was nothing sinful in desiring the fresh air, you will say. There is sin in a rebellious desire for what is denied, (Proverbs xxiv. 9 ;) a lack of subjection, a lack of love. The crfiss was galling, and I wanted it changed, before it had borue fruit. I closed my eyes. Visioos of green woodlands and mountain paths rose be fore me, and last of all, the childish memory of a river, with every bend of which I was familiar. Its banks were fringed with flowery sedges, and on its bosom blossomed the white water lilies; the very ripple of the water for a mo ment seemed conjured back by my heated imagination. A brother or sister might upbraid me ; but let me fall into the hands of the Lord, for he is pitiful and of tender mercy ; he remem bered I was dust. My brain throbbed ; I tried vainly to rest my loogiog vision elsewhere, and turned heavily on my pillow. Through the open window, round the corner of the street, came distinctly to my ear a low monotonous cry.; It was from an old man who sold wreaths. Clearly his voice rang through the still street, 'Everlasting flowers! Everlasting flowers V I raised my head and listened, for to my sad heart the words sounded as though from heaven,Teminding me that this was uot uiy rest. There was no mistake. The words came again dis tinct and clear, 'Everlasting flowers ! Everlasting flowers !T and then the voice ceased, aDd l heard it no more. The man had unconsciously delivered -his heavenly message. The fountain of ray tears was unsealed ; the scales fcii from my meutal vision. ' I longed fora city 'whose builder and maker is God I kmged for fadeless joys, for everlast ing flowers.?Anna Skipton. at ? . -q?? The Reins in God's Hand. A father and his little son were once riding along a familiar road with a gen tle horse. To gratify his child the father placed the reins in his hands, but at the same time, unseen, retained his own hold onv them. As they rede on they saw approaching them, at ter rific speed, a runaway ?daGj. The dan ger was great and imminent. But the father guided his horse so that a colli sion was avoided and the danger escaped When all was over, the little son locked up to bis father, and with choked utterance said: 'I thought I was driving, but I wasn't, was I, Dana?' So often does the child of God, when some peril has been escaped vouchsafed in ways unforseen and un thought of, have occasion to say, 'Father, I thought I was driving, but I wasuV It is blessed to feel that .the reins are in the hands of One mightier and wiser than wo are.?Banner. . Thanksgiving to God for his con tinued mercies should be perennial, dwelling in the soul and finding ex pression at all times, not waiting for set-days and officiai proclamations. ?a < * > BP" Who hath a greater combat than he that laboreth to overcome himself? This ought to be ou^endeavor, to con quer ourselves and daily wax stronger and to make a further growth of holi ness Disease is an effect, not h cause. Iis origin is within: its manifestations without. Hence, to cure the the disease the cause must be re moved, and in no other wav can a core ever be effected. WARNER'S SAFE KIDNEY AND LIVER CURE is established on jii3t this principle. It realizes that 95 Per Cent. of all diseases arise from deranged kidneys nnd liver, and if strikes at once at the root ol the difficulty. The elements of whivh it is composed act directly upon those great organs, both ?s a food and restorer, and, by placing thera 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 disttessing Disorders of Women; foi Malaria, at; i for physical derangements gen erally, this great remedy has no equal.

SbrN. Fremont St, Baltimore . Daring the -war I ".vas in jured in the stomach by a piece of a shell, and have suffered from it ever since. About four years ago it brought on paraly sis, which kept me in bed six months, and the best doctors in the city said I could not live. I suffered fearfully from indigestion, and for over two years could not eat solid food and for a large portion of the . time wasnnable to retain even liquid nourishment. I tried Brown's Iron Bittersand now after taking two bottles I am able to get up and go around and am rapidly improving. G. Deckes.
