in a measure to soothe him.
For "one week longer school was in

closed, Hal Was tm bis way to the bed?
side of his. friend, who seemed to be
growing gradually worse ; the pain and
jW^matiqn , were ^increasing,, and '.be

worried than ever.

there free of charge, but it would re?
quire-at least twenty-five or thirty dol?
lars for me to take bim on and bring
bim- backhand alas;! I have not twenty
five cents.'
HaHooked very sober; with light?
ning1 speed a thought which was not al?
together welcome had flashed upon bis
mind. He said very little, and stayed
but a few minutes with his friend ; theo
be walked slowly borne. He was fight?
ing a battle with himself; it seemed to
him thSt his ' promised trip had never
looked so alluring as it did then. He
tried to picture the grandeur of-the
Falls of Niagara, about which he had
heard so much. and. the fashionable ho?
tel, overlooking the Rapids, at which
tbey were to. stop, the broad piazzas,
the magnificent views, the charming
musje. the crowds of handsomely dress
: ed^peogie, the many obsequious servants.
He badi-been told of all these things,
but they were so new and strange and
incomprehensible to the village boy that
:te^a^;lorjged,to?see them 'for himself;
it-seemed to him that if ;he should give
them up'nowAhe" Wo???r'W giving up a
very large part of his life. And thc
long ride in the cars, he bad anticipated
much pleasure from that. Then there
j was Saratoga; with the variety of wa?
ters, and everything that was to be so
.new and wonderful to him; could he
resign it all? Then^_ca,me the thought
wky shouliTbe ? he was not even relatetT
to the boy whose own father had thus
blighted his life; what claim could he,
a stranger, have:upon him ?
Then a vision rose before him of a
cripple, with a pale face and sightless
eyes.; anc Christ's words came into bi?
mind :
v. 'Inasmuch as ye have done it unto
one of the least of these, my brethren,
ye have dooe it unto me.'
His resolve was taken now. That,
evening Mr. Vinton was somewhat sur?
prised by the question from bis son,
'Father, what will be the expense of my
share of our trip?'
'I don't know,' was the reply, 4I can
answer that question better when we
return ; somewhere from thirty to
thirty-five dollars, all told, I suppose ;
why do you ask ?
'Because,' was the blushing reply, 'I
thought if you would just as soon let
me have the money I would rather do
something else with it.'
Mr. Vinton cast a surprised and
searching look cpon his boy, and he felt
that he could trust those clear, honest
eyes, and he replied 'I will give you
the money, if you desire it,.Hal, but we
shall be very sorry to lose your com- !
pany on the trip.*
'And I shall bc very sorry not to go j
with you sir,' was the reply, 'but thc
money may be the means of saving !
poor Ted from becoming a bliud cripple
And, father,' he added, 'when I think
bow much our Saviour suffered for mc,
it makes me feel mean to know that I
hesitated about this comparatively tri?
fling sacrifice."
'May God bless you, my soo,' was
the reply, 'and help you ever to walk in
the light of His love.'
The next day Hal carried the money
to Mrs. Fancher, who burst into tears
of joy. Mr. Faochcr was at home, and
he was sober this time; even he was
touched by the sacrifice Hal was tnakiog
so freely, and when the boy asked him
to sign the pledge, he replied :
*I will, and with God's help I will
keep it.. If a stranger can . do so much
to repair the injury I have ;dbne my
boy, surely his own- fatber-eught to bo
w?Hing to do what he can.' \

" of liquor, bat be worked faithfully, and
supported bis family.
vTed and his mother went to the hos?
pital and when ? few months later they
returned, with Ted. in good health and
in full possession of his eyesight, Hal
felt that his trip to; Niagara had afford?
ed bim far more pleasure than it could
possibly have done had he really ta?
ken it.

SOME OS HIS PECULIAR UTTERANCES.
God deliver any town from a popular
preacher. Whenever liars and whore
mongers begin tor like me I am going
to pray to God to help me. The male?
dictions of the baa* are better proof that
I a mian is right than the praises of the
good. Do you know that ? Before an
: old si Liner can be thick with me he has
got to go and wash the devil's fleas off
of him and make himself decent.
? A man has got to prepare to preach.

How does a man get ready to preach 1
By thought, by study, by prayer. . Now,
I want to tell you what your daly is.
It is as mach your duty to get ready
to hear as it is my duty to preach. It
is about as bard to get ready to hear a
-sermon as it is to get ready to preach
one.
Take heed how ye hear. Take the
great plowshare of prayer and burst up
the fallow ground of your heart."
I want every ' Christian man and
woman present this morning that went
oat and fell down on their knees before
they came to church, to stand up, and
every person that came from their closet
to church to stand up. A few stood

I will venture the assertion that
Hong Kong, China, can rack "out a
better crowd than this. If you ain't as
pretty a kettle " of fish as I ever run
across I don't know what I am talking
about. If you are a member of the
church and can't do any better th un
that, don't stick your carcass under this
tent atfy more during this meetin ; that
is all 1 have got to say.
There is not a woman present this
morning, scarcely a single one, but
what I know where you started to
church from. It was right in front of
the looking glass., I bave seen women
so poor they did not own a pair of shoes,
bot never so poor they did not have a

here that did not come from the looking

to God; the manor woman, therefore,
who speaks evil of another, robs not

One boshet of the best corn will only
make thr^e gallons, ?f .whiskey; but a
little strychnine easily raises the quan?
tity to four gallons. This is so univer?
sal that four gallons is now an average
yield. One drug-house in London, in
1867, sold more strychnine to a liquor
house than the whole city could use
medicinally. Mark the progress in
evil. A distiller adds one-forth by the
use of strychnine. The wholesaler takes
this adulterated stock and doubles it by
the use of stramonium and opium . The
retailer gives it another turn. He
doubles it again by ?he use of belladon?
na. This brings ten cents a drink, and

practice all over the land

Every farmer is interested in the welfare of
his stock, and should have on hand, for ready
