" I t Don't Concern Me." ny MltJj. FANNH: II. CARU. A common objection given for non- engagement in temperance work is—tlie evil it proposes to combat don’t, concern me, hence no need of .my enlisting in this nptlj'culled “ everybody’s war.” As this age specially demands, demonstration, it might be profitable to refer to a most graphic object lesson concerning the fact that just as alcohol spares neither age, sex nor social position, so tho misery resulting therefrom is equally widespread;- •A Sun- day dr two since two young men, full of life, and with' apparently a happy future before them, stepped onboard the boat for Gloucester. To-day one of them lies in a premature grave^ tlie other with tho brand . of murder upon him awaits in a felon’s cell his trial. Both are said to have been tlie sons of respectable parents. But it is to tho mother of the murderer that we would specially refer. The highest author- ity tells us that there is a sorrow with which a stranger intermeddleth not, and we trust that we would be among the last to rudely lift the veil from sorrowsuch as hers. But for the sake of other mothers and other mothers’ sons, we refer to it as a graphic illustration of the need of alt classes in the community engaging in ag- gressive effort to down this unequaled foe of home aud home influences. Mrs. Day, the mother of the man. awaiting trial, is reputed to be not only ft consistent Chris tian, but that fot some time she has con- ducted a-normal class for Sunday-school •teachers, in short, a teacher of teachers; so tliat she is not only. personally a devoted Christian, but an aggressive. worker for God nml' humanity. A friend rehearsed in the writer’s hearing the many excep. tionully good points in liev character, and said, “ But what in such a calamity can we her friends do? It is so delicate and trying a position we would extend sympa- thy. What cannot we say we would like to write, but we are hindered from considera- tions of delicacy.” It is said of a heathen ruler that he ex- claimed, “ I am a man, aud hence what- ever concerns my brother I. canuot be in- different to." Surely so just and noble a ' sentiment should forever rebuke the sel- fishness of many in our midst who plead as an excuse for non-participation in tem- perance effort that the evil don’t affect them. All the more should their position be that of a uoble woman in tho West, who said, "Because my husband is a teetotaller, because my father w'as a total abstainer, . because my boys do not k uow the taste,of liquor, I give myself to thee, Lord Jesus, for other women’s husbands, and other mothers’ sons. Tho-changes.have been rung incessantly both by preacher and moralist upon Napo- leon’s famous reply when asked concern- ing the greatest need of Franco, viz: good mothers; but in view of the incident're- ferred to above (ouly opo among a host) I ' think it goes without saying that some- thing more is needed than good mothers, potential'as doubtless they are, in order that our sons may be a credit to their parents and a.blessing to. tlio community. % All day yesterday, whether iu the quiet of our home or in the worshiping congre- gation, our hearts went out to that grief- stricken mother sitting in the shadow of awful sorrow. We-could not but realize ns the sun arose on Sunday morning what a contrast to tho Sunday previous. Then doubtless she looked upon her boy with a mother’s love and a mother's pride. Though she may have seen tendencies that trou bled-hei, and believed tliat tlie same gra- cious Spirit that she so earnestly. com mended to others.would eradicate these from tlie boy’s heart, lint now, nl;«, alas ! God pity nml support her. Sometimes it seems that there is a “ needs be that there should lie one dead in every house” before there shall be another uprising of the American* people who gliall say to the proud waves of the liquor oligarchy, “ Thus far shalt thou go, aud no farther, und here shall thy proud-waves be stayed.1’. The resignation.with which people, bury their neighbor’s children has becomo pro- verbial,’ and It seems in many cases neces- sary to strike home in order to arouse ,an apathetic community to the true inward- ness of tho legalized liquor traffic. .And in order to make mother’s inlluence.more potent will not paterfamilias see to it that he rise above party nlllliation. That he sees in home protection something more than protection to American Industries, or •protection for the wool on the sheep’s back, that in the significant and suggestive question of the Master, "How much bettor is a mini than n sheep?" he shall see that Christ emphasizes the value of man as far transcending any merely economic ques- tion, and that in the near future he shall deposit in Christ’s name u ballot for the party whose platform, best conserves the interests of *• home, sweet home.” Helping tho Prayer Mooting. 1. Be constant in your attendance. Be so constant that you will be known iu the community as .a prayer-meeting Christian, and, if you are wanted ou praycr-meeting night, your friends will look for you first of all in the prayer-room. Set apart that night, and consecrate it to God.' Allow no excuse to serve to keep you at home that would not serve on the night of the sociable or the concert. And remember that it is easiev to be a constant than to be a periodic worshiper. The law of habit operates here as elsewhere. , * 2. Be punctual. I exhort earnestly to this old-fashioned virtue.' Better late than not at all ,• but for.the sake of your pastor und the brethren and sisters who are al- ways on time, never be a moment late, if you can possibly avoid it. Yes, and for your ,own sake as well; Read carefully verses .24-28 of John 20,’and you will find that, in.nil probability,-Thomas came into the meeting of tlie disciples just after- Jesus went out. lie was late, and missed the best part of tlie service.- So may you. The hymn may have been sung, the pray- er may have been offered, the w’ord may have been spoken that Would have done you the most good. 3. Be funcard. Forward people, as a general thing, we do not admire; but in tho prayer-meeting, behold how good and how pleasant they are ! I have come to be- lieve that when a Christian is willing to occupy.n front seat in tho prayer-rooni, lie is well oil toward complete sanctification. Perhaps yoifsay that you do nut enjoy yourself as well in u front seat. And is it for this that you come to the prayer meet* Ing? Is it for you-a place simply of spirit- ual entertainment and luxury 'i Then cer- tainly you need-more of the spirit of Him who “ pleased uot Himself.” - As ono ol' i-Iis followers, your place _in the prayer- meeting is not where you .etui enjoy your- self the’most, but where you cun be tlie most helpful to others. 4. Be prompt. Take part early. Be uot over.cureful to observe any precise aud chronological order of service. Do uot wait always, before taking part, until the deacons have done their duty. Crowd in before them sometimes, if you can. Thoy will enjoy it. I)o not wait until you think you feel just like it. How dearly Satau loves to pull that string. In the very at- tempt to do your duty, tho feeling that you desire will come. 5. Be brief. Consult Eccles. 5:2, 3. If you have a good deal' to say, break It in two, and pray .twice, or make two exhorta- tions. Wo have all heard by this time, 1 suppose, of the brother who, in a meeting one night, at the close of a prayer that oc- cupied fifteen or twenty minutes, was un- consciously inspired to strike up the hymn, Hallelujah,.. His Done." (This actually occurred.) Sin no more, lest a w’orse tiling coine unto thee. Stop when you are done, and sit down when you aro through. •. 0. Be social The pruyer-meetiug, it has been well- said, Is'tho fireside,- not the school-house of the church. It is a con- versation room, not a lecture room. The fireside is the place for freedom and sociiu bility. §6 get rid, as far as possible, of all stiffness and’ formality. Let part, at least, ofthe sociability come before the bene- diction. 7. Be prayerful. Come from. prayer. Come In the spirit of prayer. Come to pray. Let it be understood that the “ pauses,” if any there be, shall be filled with silent prayers ascending to the throne of God. Why .should not a. ;>w//tfr*meet- ingbe full of prayer?-— Conyrcyati&ialist. . • Sympathy. True sympathy can raise thq Hie, Can win the mind to higher things, Can keep’In cheek tho war nnd strife Which worldly contact dally brings. With sympathy to help us on, What can wo uot-o’ercome and bear?.. What battles may be fought nnd won When other hearts our sorrows share? ’Tis often seen In lonely hours, ’.Mid stekness, watchings, caro, and toil; It Is a plant divine, whoso flowers Give richest hue# In loving soil. It Is a blessing sent from heaven' For man hla fellow-man to cheer; It Is a boon which God hath given, - ' Kach one may ubo It lu his sphere. It omanatcs from Him whoso lovo Can heal our sorrows, mako us whole; It speaks In tones which thrill and iiiovo Tho purest chords within tho sou]. Cure fcr Spiritual Melancholy. ' “ I wish you would write it out for me," said a friend, after 1 had recommended the prescription.- Then I wondered I had not attempted this before. Not that the pre- scription Is original, or even new; how- ever, ns we meet so many who seem to think it a virtue to deplore their leanness, without recognizing the occasion of their uaUrnctive nml - unhealthy condition, It is certainly worth the effort to make rin old truth mbre prnctical to some needlessly dull-sighted one. After-candid exnminution we have been compelled to admit tlio prevailing disor- der, resulting in this uncomfortablo and contagious disease, is selfishness. Let us take a hurried diagnosis to prove this.con- clusion. A few of the symptoms of the disease are acute sensitiveness, morbid in- trospection, dissatisfied with tho measure of opportunities, comparing ourselves among: ourselves, and othei a we cannot enlarge ..upon. Let us consider briefly these named. To give acute sensitiveness its real term, we ask one questionDoes the intended or imagined offence'disturb your tranquillity, because of the wrong done to the offender, or because of the hurt to self ? We are exhorted to examine ourselves, and if this exnminution is for the purpose Intended, und carried on by the light of God’s spirit, it will prove healthful; b(it morbid introspection ls;n turning inward of our gaze, without the light of the Spirit, iuto a measuring of our .faith, our hope, our love, and must result in dissatisfaction.- So, also; when dissatisfied with our opportunities, we feel unappreciated arid restrained. The thought Is on self. Comparing ourselves with others, wo grow envious of their gifts nnd attainments.. , Now .from tho disease, thus hurriedly glanced at, let us turn to the remedy. I low can this remedy to healthful Christian living be overcome? First, give your mind and. soul u vigor- ous. meditation upou tho lovo of .God. Greater love hath no man! Remember this love includes infinite wisdom. " No good thing;will he withhold;" infinite power, My God shall supply all your need” and at. every twinge from the-udver- snry, take a more comprehensive dose. Be determined to dwell upou this theme, it cannot be exhausted, neither will it prove its palatableuessl and is sure to eradicate self. With every wholesome remedy, taken internally, there must, be added to the prescription, exercise, the outward.ap- plication. This suggests th e; remaining hulf of our gospel prescription, Viz: Praise. Be determined to praiso God. For what ? For all things—Eph. 5:20. When ? In: everything—2 Tliess. 5: 18. Many questions, will arise here,.bin remember all things” means all things, anil “ every- thing” means everything. Ah, my gospel remedy is only the old, old story, you say. True, but take it, dear heart, and add'your name to the list of the cured.—Aihocatc ami Guardian. Gems. If faith produce no works, I sco . That faith Is not a living tree, Thus faith and works together grow; No separate life they o’er can know: They’re soul und body, baud and heart ;■ What God hath Joined, let uo man part. —Uannafi As the' sunshine seems brighter.after the stQrui is past, aud nil nature is beauti- ful aud joyous, so. may God’s love anti pence come to'us, when the darkest hours Of temptations and afiiletloiis have bowed us down for a season, and we can sing, again, because the goodness of God’s mercy is still near us; and then we real,, izo tlie truth that no chastening for the present seemeth 'joyous but' grievous, nev. ertheless nftorward It yieldeth the peacea- ble fruit of righteousness. Simplicity. There is uo aspect of a really noble nature that commands our admiration be- yond this. Affectation, visible in reli glous profession or service, is particularly distasteful and repellant. Wherever it .is seen, there is-orlgnuted within us nu instinctive distrust, an inword revolt against accepting either such testimony or leadership. Impress one that wo study mere effect in what we’say nnd do, nud no amount of nrtifice on our part will conn- teract tiie prejudice that' must eventually destroy our iniluenco for. good upon the Individual. There is a sufficient explana- tion for all this.. 'Ostentatious, display of fancied religious attainments Is so Incon- sistent with’humility nnd meekness that one cannot but suspect the entire basis of character. These persons are self-cen- tered—to make use of an expression which Indicates a deficiency that will surely ripen Into positive. irreligion in some form unless-it,Is arrested by the cleansing blood. There is just here a subtle ground of approach by tho'arch enemy of • the soul, an assailable point of character, which, unhappily, lie is too often success- fill in discovering. Nothing is more dan- gerous, or more difficult to dislodge, than spiritual sel C-conceit,. as opposed to tin art - less, genuine simplicity. T Our lips were made for victors* songs, our brows j - to wear the crown ; 1 Why stand ye then, O sons of God, with heavy . hearts bowed down?" However ficrco the tempest be, your hopes may V yet be warm, Tho lengthening flath of God’s,groat poivor can r. pierce the darkest storm.' • " -K.W.SUuilff. Lay Sermon of 100 Words. BY COL. II. II.

Toxt—“And tho God of peace shall brulso Satan under your feet, shortly.” I am very glad that God did what I could not do, and under my feet, too,away from my ears, into which Satan would whisper. Oh, the peace that reigns instead of Satan. The day after my conversion, • Satan urged me not to tell two former compan- ions, a brewer and a saloon keeper. About to yield, I spoke to God.

Shortly, means to day; this moment, if we let Him. The Christian's Ease. The Christian life is a race, and is ex- pressed in the Bible in tills very'figure.' A mighty raco course is seen stretching away from oiir feet upward and onward, nnd that Is the place for the Christian, where men strive for mastery,..where they run for nn immortal crown. We .must not stop to look at:transitory things,or the glittering prizes of the. world, but keep our eyes on the goal lest we should lie dis- tanced In the race, and auother step in before us. • We must lbok to the end, tiie glorious crown, the great author and fin- isher of our faitli, and press forward. Mind uot the things about us, they are not' worthy to ‘be compared with theglbrv that shall be. Run with patience aud so run that ye may obtain.- As to the condi- tions aiid qualities' upon which success; depends, We can well learn a le»?bu from the old Grecian games. The racers were in earnest; we will do well to emulate their assiduity, their siugleness of aim nud effort, atid the engrossment of every power and faculty In one great master pussion to win the race or die. They Imd blit one idea; nnd everything else was of secondary importance. That race in which they were to run before the world for a prize was continually in their minds; arid it tightened their muscles in anticipation. This was tho first grand condition of their success, as It is of all success’; for no mau ever did anything great with divided ener- ies. We are ruiiulng a mighty race for au Immortal crown; if religion is.worth, anything It is worth everything; so shall we not emulate the -earnestness of those ancient Greeks ? The Christian must live for one thing, and one thing only; not that he must, renouuce all the active duties of life, and speud all his days in medita- tion,-for that would no more make a stroug Christian thau the close and 'stlfiiugair of a cave would make a strong athlete. • The .world is. necessary to the true develope- inent of the Christian cliaractcr. There must be storm and wind, cares, trials and vexations^ and tlie common business of life In the experience,of the Christian to make him strong ,in the- race for eternal life. Every power, must - be consecrated to Clod, nud every energy concentrated upon his work; then, like an arrow from the bow; like the lightning from, the sky, tlie Christian will spring forward, deter- mined to conquer or die. It is a glorious race to run, and at the goal are the shining forms and loving faces of a great cloud of witnesses, nnd Jesus, the' author and fin- isher .of our faith, waiting to bestow upon us the prize of our high caUing;—67mV tifin at Worfc. ------------ m m ---- ; Lovers of Songs and Solos, Those who love good singing will not miss the Young People’s Meetings to be- gin next Sunday morning.

' sentiment should forever rebuke the sel- fishness of many in our midst who plead as an excuse for non-participation in tem­perance effort that the evil don’t affect them. All the more should their position be that of a uoble woman in tho West, who said, "Because my husband is a teetotaller, because my father w'as a total abstainer,

. because my boys do not k uow the taste,of liquor, I give myself to thee, Lord Jesus, for other women’s husbands, and other mothers’ sons.

Tho-changes.have been rung incessantly both by preacher and moralist upon Napo­leon’s famous reply when asked concern­ing the greatest need of Franco, viz: good mothers; but in view of the incident're- ferred to above (ouly opo among a host) I

' think it goes without saying that some­thing more is n e e d e d than good mothers, potential'as doubtless they are, in order that our sons may be a credit to their parents and a.blessing to. tlio community.

% All day yesterday, whether iu the quiet of our home or in the worshiping congre­

gation, our hearts went out to that grief- stricken mother sitting in the shadow of awful sorrow. We-could not but realize ns the sun arose on Sunday morning what a contrast to tho Sunday previous. Then doubtless she looked upon her boy with a mother’s love and a mother's pride. Though she may have seen tendencies that trou bled-hei, and believed tliat tlie same gra­cious Spirit that she so earnestly. com mended to others.would eradicate these from tlie boy’s heart, lint now, nl;«, alas ! God pity nml support her. Sometimes it seems that there is a “ needs be that there should lie one dead in every house” before there shall be another uprising of the American* people who gliall say to the proud waves of the liquor oligarchy, “ Thus far shalt thou go, aud no farther, und here shall thy proud-waves be stayed.1’.

The resignation.with which people, bury their neighbor’s children has becomo pro­verbial,’ and It seems in many cases neces­sary to strike home in order to arouse , an apathetic community to the true inward­ness of tho legalized liquor traffic. .And in order to make mother’s inlluence.more potent will not paterfamilias see to it that he rise above party nlllliation. That he sees in home protection something more than protection to American Industries, or •protection for the wool on the sheep’s back, that in the significant and suggestive question of the Master, "How much bettor is a mini than n sheep?" he shall see that Christ emphasizes the value of man as far transcending any merely economic ques- tion, and that in the near future he shall deposit in Christ’s name u ballot for the party whose platform, best conserves the interests of *• home, sweet home.”

Helping tho Prayer Mooting.1. Be constant in your attendance. Be so

constant that you will be known iu the community as .a prayer-meeting Christian, and, if you are wanted ou praycr-meeting night, your friends will look for you first of all in the prayer-room. Set apart that night, and consecrate it to God.' Allow no excuse to serve to keep you at home that would not serve on the night of the sociable or the concert. And remember that it is easiev to be a constant than to be a periodic worshiper. The law of habit operates here as elsewhere. , *

2. Be punctual. I exhort earnestly to this old-fashioned virtue.' Better late than not at all ,• but for.the sake of your pastor und the brethren and sisters who are al­ways on time, never be a moment late, if you can possibly avoid it. Yes, and for your , own sake as well; Read carefully verses .24-28 of John 20,’ and you will find that, in.nil probability,-Thomas came into the meeting of tlie disciples just after- Jesus went out. lie was late, and missed the best part of tlie service.- So may you. The hymn may have been sung, the pray­er may have been offered, the w’ord may have been spoken that Would have done you the most good.

3. Be funcard. Forward people, as a general thing, we do not admire; but in tho prayer-meeting, behold how good and how pleasant they are ! I have come to be­lieve that when a Christian is willing to occupy.n front seat in tho prayer-rooni, lie is well oil toward complete sanctification. Perhaps yoifsay that you do nut enjoy yourself as well in u front seat. And is it for this that you come to the prayer meet* Ing? Is it for you-a place simply of spirit­ual entertainment and luxury 'i Then cer­tainly you need-more of the spirit of Him who “ pleased uot Himself.” - As ono ol' i-Iis followers, your place _in the prayer- meeting is not where you .etui enjoy your­self the’most, but where you cun be tlie most helpful to others.

4. Be prompt. Take part early. Be uot over.cureful to observe any precise aud chronological order of service. Do uot wait always, before taking part, until the deacons have done their duty. Crowd in before them sometimes, if you can. Thoy will enjoy it. I)o not wait until you think you feel just like it. How dearly Satau loves to pull that string. In the very at­tempt to do your duty, tho feeling that you desire will come.

5. Be brief. Consult Eccles. 5:2, 3. If you have a good deal' to say, break It in two, and pray .twice, or make two exhorta­tions. Wo have all heard by this time, 1 suppose, of the brother who, in a meeting one night, at the close of a prayer that oc­cupied fifteen or twenty minutes, was un­consciously inspired to strike up the hymn,

Hallelujah,.. His Done." (This actually occurred.) Sin no more, lest a w’orse tiling coine unto thee. Stop when you are done, and sit down when you aro through. •.

0. Be social The pruyer-meetiug, it has been well- said, Is'tho fireside,- not the school-house of the church. I t is a con­versation room, not a lecture room. The fireside is the place for freedom and sociiu

bility. §6 get rid, as far as possible, of all stiffness and’ formality. Let part, at least, ofthe sociability come before the bene­diction.

7. Be prayerful. Come from . prayer. Come In the spirit of prayer. Come to pray. Let it be understood that the “ pauses,” if any there be, shall be filled with silent prayers ascending to the throne of God. Why .should not a. ;>w//tfr*meet- ingbe full of prayer?-— Conyrcyati&ialist.

. • Sympathy.

True sympathy can raise thq Hie,Can win the mind to higher things,

Cure fcr Spiritual Melancholy. '“ I wish you would write it out for me,"

said a friend, after 1 had recommended the prescription.- Then I wondered I had not attempted this before. Not that the pre­scription Is original, or even new; how­ever, ns we meet so many who seem to think it a virtue to deplore their leanness, without recognizing the occasion of their uaUrnctive nml - unhealthy condition, It is certainly worth the effort to make rin old truth mbre prnctical to some needlessly dull-sighted one.

After-candid exnminution we have been compelled to admit tlio prevailing disor- der, resulting in this uncomfortablo and contagious disease, is selfishness. Let us take a hurried diagnosis to prove this.con­clusion. A few of the symptoms of the disease are acute sensitiveness, morbid in­trospection, dissatisfied with tho measure of opportunities, comparing ourselves among: ourselves, and othei a we cannot enlarge ..upon. Let us consider briefly these named. To give acute sensitiveness its real term, we ask one questionD oes the intended or imagined offence'disturb your tranquillity, because of the wrong done to the offender, or because of the hurt to self ? We are exhorted to examine ourselves, and if this exnminution is for the purpose Intended, und carried on by the light of God’s spirit, it will prove healthful; b(it morbid introspection ls;n turning inward of our gaze, without the light of the Spirit, iuto a measuring of our .faith, our hope, our love, and must result in dissatisfaction.- So, also; when dissatisfied with our opportunities, we feel unappreciated arid restrained. The thought Is on self. Comparing ourselves with others, wo grow envious of their gifts nnd attainments.., Now . from tho disease, thus hurriedly glanced at, let us turn to the remedy. I low can this remedy to healthful Christian living be overcome?

First, give your mind and. soul u vigor­ous. meditation upou tho lovo of .God. Greater love hath no man! Remember this love includes infinite wisdom. " No good thing;will he withhold;" infinite power, My God shall supply all your need” and at. every twinge from the-udver- snry, take a more comprehensive dose. Be determined to dwell upou this theme, it cannot be exhausted, neither will it prove its palatableuessl and is sure to eradicate self. With every wholesome remedy, taken internally, there must, be added to the prescription, exercise, the outward.ap­plication. This suggests th e ; remaining hulf of our gospel prescription, Viz: Praise. Be determined to praiso God. For what ? For all things—Eph. 5:20. When ? In : everything—2 Tliess. 5: 18. Many questions, will arise here,.bin remember

all things” means all things, anil “ every­thing” means everything.

Ah, my gospel remedy is only the old, old story, you say. True, but take it, dear heart, and add'your name to the list of the cured.—Aihocatc ami Guardian.

As the' sunshine seems brighter.after the stQrui is past, aud nil nature is beauti­ful aud joyous, so. may God’s love anti pence come to'us, when the darkest hours Of temptations and afiiletloiis have bowed

us down for a season, and we can sing, again, because the goodness of God’s mercy is still near us; and then we real,, izo tlie truth that no chastening for the present seemeth 'joyous but' grievous, nev. ertheless nftorward It yieldeth the peacea­ble fruit of righteousness.

Simplicity.There is uo aspect of a really noble

nature that commands our admiration be­yond this. Affectation, visible in reli glous profession or service, is particularly distasteful and repellant. Wherever it .is seen, there is-orlgnuted within us nu instinctive distrust, an inword revolt against accepting either such testimony or leadership. Impress one that wo study mere effect in what we’say nnd do, nud no amount of nrtifice on our part will conn- teract tiie prejudice th a t' must eventually destroy our iniluenco for. good upon the Individual. There is a sufficient explana­tion for all this.. 'Ostentatious, display of fancied religious attainments Is so Incon­sistent with’humility nnd meekness that one cannot but suspect the entire basis of character. These persons are self-cen­tered—to make use of an expression which Indicates a deficiency that will surely ripen Into positive. irreligion in some form unless-it,Is arrested by the cleansing blood. There is just here a subtle ground of approach by tho'arch enemy of • the soul, an assailable point of character, which, unhappily, lie is too often success- fill in discovering. Nothing is more dan­gerous, or more difficult to dislodge, than spiritual sel C-conceit,. as opposed to tin art­less, genuine simplicity. T

Our lips were made for victors* songs, our brows j - to wear th e crown ; 1

Lay Sermon of 100 Words.BY COL. II. II. IIADLEY, AVE. A MISSION,

NEW YORK.

Toxt—“ And tho God of peace shall brulso Satan under your feet, shortly .”

I am very glad that God did what I could not do, and under my feet, too,away from my ears, into which Satan would whisper. Oh, the peace that reigns instead of Satan.

The day after my conversion, • Satan urged me not to tell two former compan­ions, a brewer and a saloon keeper. About to yield, I spoke to God. Immediately lie bruised. Satnn under my feet, so severely that he quit tempting me not to testify. •

Have not we been bruised enough? Now let God bruise-our enemy. This G6d of Peace!

Shortly, means to day; this moment, if we let Him.

The Christian's Ease.The Christian life is a race, and is ex­

pressed in the Bible in tills very'figure.' A mighty raco course is seen stretching away from oiir feet upward and onward, nnd that Is the place for the Christian, where men strive for mastery,..where they run for nn immortal crown. We .must not stop to look at: transitory things,or the glittering prizes of the. world, but keep our eyes on the goal lest we should lie dis­tanced In the race, and auother step in before us. • W e must lbok to the end, tiie glorious crown, the great author and fin­isher of our faitli, and press forward. Mind uot the things about us, they are not' worthy to ‘be compared with theglbrv that shall be. Run with patience aud so run that ye may obtain.- As to the condi­tions aiid qualities' upon which success; depends, We can well learn a le»?bu from the old Grecian games. The racers were in earnest; we will do well to emulate their assiduity, their siugleness of aim nud effort, atid the engrossment of every power and faculty In one great master pussion to win the race or die. They Imd blit one idea; nnd everything else was of secondary importance. That race in which they were to run before the world for a prize was continually in their minds; arid it tightened their muscles in anticipation. This was tho first grand condition of their success, as It is of all success’; for no mau ever did anything great with divided ener-

ies. We are ruiiulng a mighty race for au Immortal crown; if religion is.worth, anything It is worth everything; so shall we not emulate the -earnestness of those ancient Greeks ? The Christian must live for one thing, and one thing only; not that he must, renouuce all the active duties of life, and speud all his days in medita­tion,-for that would no more make a stroug Christian thau the close and 'stlfiiugair of

a cave would make a strong athlete. • The .world is. necessary to the true develope- inent of the Christian cliaractcr. There must be storm and wind, cares, trials and vexations^ and tlie common business of life In the experience,of the Christian to make him strong ,in the- race for eternal life. Every power, must - be consecrated to Clod, nud every energy concentrated upon his work; then, like an arrow from the bow; like the lightning from, the sky, tlie Christian will spring forward, deter­mined to conquer or die. It is a glorious race to run, and at the goal are the shining forms and loving faces of a great cloud of witnesses, nnd Jesus, the' author and fin­isher .of our faith, waiting to bestow upon us the prize of our high caUing;—67mV t if in at Worfc.

------------ m • m ---- ; —Lovers of Songs and Solos,

Those who love good singing will not miss the Young People’s Meetings to be­gin next Sunday morning. Mr. Yatmnn, the leader, snvs: That with the sounding board for. the choir, and the piano and organ, and the new hymn book," Temple Songs "combined with "Temple Themes,” there will bo heard the grandest music possible. The singing of these young peo­ple in the past years has. been an Inspira­tion. I t is no wonder that one and two thousand crowd tlie building daily. Promptly.at nine o’clock Sunday morning next the services will commence and con­tinue dally to the first .Sabbath in Septem* her. . -

■%*ord2 to the Children.Bear Ch ildre.a v f Oaak Orote:—I. do riot

e\-p'.*ct to see you'tiie present summer, so, let us have a little , chat this morning, through Tin: Uixor.i). I know many of you have wit tiered the sacramental ser­vices in the* Amiitorhun, and have heard Dr. Stokes request that ull persons coming to and golug from the communion rail to “ form in line and keep to the right.” This was to prevent confusion, among tbe great number constantly coming and go­ing. . And you, as well as the writer, have noticed .with pleasure, how. nicely this two line system, formed by obeying the re­quest, “ keep to the right,” worked. How quickly the altar rail was vacated anti filled without blocking the aisles, and avoiding the least confusion or delay,-until some very selfish persons would disregard the request, ", keep to the right," by.going to the left and passing those in the line who were waiting patiently their turn, endear vorlug to get there first. Before they could succeed they met those coming from the rail, nnd blocking the aisles, caused confusion, nnd became stumbling blocks to others, causing delay ; all because they would turn to the left Instead of “ keep-, ing to the right.” - ■*.

Dear children, many of you have'given your hearts to the Lord Jesus, arid are pro­fessing Christians. You are in the line to tho right, therefore > keep to the right," advancing step .bv step' iu the Christian life. You will be often tempted to turn to the left, but remember if you do you will he a “stumbling block” In tire way of some one else, anil may .cause' a delay in. some < uie’s accepting. Christ. If any of you through temptation the past winter, have stepped to the left, don’t stay there in the way of sonie other little oue, but imme­diately lisk God to forgive'you, and by faith fall in line again aud keep to the right l»y loving atul obeviug Ood.

3Iauy of voii have signed the pledge of total abstinence. In this also “ keep to the right” by never breaking that pledge. Determine to* be always on tlie side of prohibition. ' - Ar.yr Cahuie. '

Malcing Good Uso of Tho Sccord.We have received from time to time a

good many encomiums of this unpreten­tious paper, but tlie best use made of it, niter being carefully perused by the iudi- viiluul subscriber and his iuimediate fam­ily or frieuds, tliat we have ever heard of, conies to hand the preseut week. A party had met in a pleasant leafy retreat after business hours Inst Saturday. It wits too hot for atheletic sport, and reclining in tbe shade seemed to be tbe wisest thing for tired clerks, aiid brain-jigitated ac­countants.. But this bocnmc monotonous, ami as a diversion for the moment, one of the company took out of his pocket a fresh copy of the Ocean Grove R e c o r d , propos­ing, ns it contained from a dozen to twenty articles, and'twice that number of brief items, to pass tbe pnper around and let each one In turn read aloud the article in course.

A lady of good eloeutionnry power be. gan with the brief poem on first page, en­titled “pNotliing is lost.” She read it well nud received due applause, when some discriminating criticism was indulged in by several ns to its poetic merit, its subtle philosophy aud brond lesson of truth.

The trenchant article by Mrs..Fannie II. Carr, on “ Liberty vs. License,” came next in order, aud a gentleman rend It with the vim of stump speech from a.tiiodet n moral reformer. I t evidently planted good seed thought,

Next, Dr. Munhall’s peculiar milliuarian views as given under the heading, “ Tares and Wheat,” were cleverly recited in the manner of un earnest preacher, and but one member of the party roused himself to the point of controversj;, to offer a miid disclaimer. .

The •“ Agency of Music,” was assigned to another iady, aud bi ought tears, as she rapidly rehearsedjjtbe incidents it contain­ed. At this moment tlie religious impres­sion was quite generally apparent, and only deepened when the next reader fin­ished nn extract from one of Dr. Tnlmage's recent, sermons.

Tbe “Lay Sermon of 100 Words” follow* ed with its epigramatic spirit aud doctrine, which .had a good effect; and then came the Ocean Grove “ Testimony Meeting,” .with a song of Zion quoted in full, from the well remembered “ Quiver.” This, it happened, one of the company knew, and

be well With him,” &c., presenting the evangelist of 00 years, is a t present.so- converse propositions of happiuess and journing at the Atlantic House, Ocean heaven for the good and unmitigated woe Grove. Dr. Perry is known/all over .theas the portlou of the wicked.

As io who are the righteous, the speaker broadened bis definition so tis to includo moral and upright character as well as saying faith in Christ, and its effects in obedience, joy and final fruition in’the life to couie. Scripture precepts \ and promises were cogently applied, nnd the highest motives held forth to faithfulness iu all the conditions of Christian enjoy­ment.

The state tind consequences of disobe­diences were also enforced, and an appeal made for immediate surrender to ,tlie claims of the Gospel, aud. acceptnnce of present sulvntion by faith iu Christ. The thoughts of the sermon were allowed to settle down in silent prayer, aud the moru- ing scrvice was closed by Rev. Dr. Aug ustus Webster.

AFTERNOON MEETING.While the people were gatheriugfor the

usual experience meeting there was dis­tant thunder . and signs of a Summer shower, but the cloud passed by and a large congregation assembled as in days of old, to “ speak one to another” of those spiritual realizations which eoufirm re­vealed-truth, nnd afford the soul stroug consolatiou in the vicissitudes of the way from earth to heaven.

Prayer was offered successively by the leader,. Dr, Stokes, Dr. Phoebus and Dr. E. M. Levy, with lively hymns inter veil- ing. .- . . • '.

A I.UMINOES‘CHAPTERfrom tlie metaphorical prophecy of Isaiah was then read, commencing with the ex­hortation, “ Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and th<fglory of the Lord is risen upon thee.” .The leader’s practical com­ments guvp the.message a new iuterest to all present. The command to “ shine” was founded on light given, and the Doc­tor insisted that neglect of. this duty was unjustifiable. If oue cauuot be a suti, or even a moon or star, in degree of light, the obligation.-extended down to the grade of a 'glow-worm's capacity.- All acquainted experimentally witli Him who is the-light nnd life of men,.must diffuse tho gracious endowment for the good of those who are in the darkness of ignorance, unbelief uud siii.

Hardly a passage in the beautiful chap. ter but, from one or another of those who. were quite ready to testify, received for cible illustration andcommuuicated deeper instruction in the line of privilege aud duty; •

THE H.VPPY HOl’lt devoted to speaking was full}' improved uud tiie time had to be extended so as to iuclude all who were desirous of showing forth tho praises of Him who had Called them out of darkness, into Ills marvelous light. Bros. Meeker, Yatmau, Purdy, Kennedy, Swallow aud Dr. Levy, with a large number of brethren aiid sisters, some of them strangers, of different denomina­tion^ availed themselves of tho opportu­nity, aud the meeting closed aftor some

country for his straightforward ideas ou morality aud health, imd from his long and varied experience is a very interest?; ing talker, • . . . . .

Some of the Ocean Grove readers of the Daily l>rcus are astounded over tiie exper­iences und observations of Mr. Jeff Graves, who airs his philosophy, in that paper. They are so unsophisticated as to litivo misgivings about some.of his alleged facts.. They do uo not know that his real name is suspected to be Munchausen Redivi^ous!

derly.“ Why, this is like a meeting,” exclaim­

ed another: “ Yes,” ;was the respouse,“ oue of the best meetings I have enjoyed since Christmas.”

A gem of chaste and bentiful imagery, headed “ True Knowledge,” ,came next, aud after fiuishing it, soverul expressed the wish to have n clipping, and carry tho piece with them for further reflection. -

Although not permitted to bo much at Ocean Grove, it was a charming reverie of. devotional exercise by tho sea, to. hear read tho sketch entitled “ Last Sunday’s Enjoyments,”'aud the items followingcon- tained each a volume in a few words.

Turning from the first pat;e, the readers began again on tlie second; with “ Tuber- nncles Services,” including Dr. Stokes’ suggestive sermon iu a nut shell.

There were “Chnutuuqunus” present and to one of tho class of ’88 was assigned the next article, while religious fervor.became fierd up once more, as the “ Soul-stirring sermon " of H. C. McBride was delineated in its snlient characteristics. In fact it set tlio little picnic company to singing “ Pre* clous Name," a lyric Avhicb nearly all knew bj; heart.

The other articles, nnd all the “ Edi torlal Item s”.were afterwards goue.over, also the “ Summer Progr.'.m,” with tills re­sult, that every oue of the party 'wanted tliat particular copy of the R e c o r d to keep ns a memeuto of a most enjoyable afternoon. . . . . .

This is the naive report made to us, and in connection therewith several requests by postal card- for last wsek's copy of T he R e c o r d , which,- after lookiug over, with nil the prestige giveu it by the improuiptu readlug circle, as. above, wo cannot per­ceive is a whit betterj nor even as good, for the editor wrote most of it himself, as the general run. of our weekly issues all the year round.

I t gives us satisfaction; after twenty years of editorial life, that we have never issued a single paper which did uot con­tain doctrine and precept enough, of tlie pronounced spiritual stamp, to save a soul.

If so much could bo mnde out of: last weed’s number,, tho same ability centres in this oue—poetry, of the pure and eleva­ting order, seutiuieut, which sweetens life, and motive to llvo well, and be rendy to live forever.

To tbe kind friend vvh o h us. given us the opportunity to iudulgo in this strain of reflection,.nud those represented by her welcome words, wo return thanks, and will send every one of tho party copies of this modest sheet whenever they desire them.

We only add thnt to get the real worth of one’s money, and ten-fold more, out of a newspaper, read it carefully, read it all, and try if you cau estimate the/amount of brain product placed before you, solected from all sources, every week in the round year, and all for your good, ns much as for the indispensable dollar.- But there is a lesson for us, and perhaps for others, in tho pleasing incident it is our privilege to refer to. * During the Summer how many “ can’t-get-away clubs”
