When heavy burdens of duty weigh down the soul the heart will gain strooitth by a reference to what God bm dona In the past, A minister was about to engage in I revival oampaign in a western city, He was muoh eierciaed over tbe spiritual eondition of the com munity, The church was one of Ilia oldest in the State, and one whieh bed made an honorable record, but for veais there bad been no revival. Tbe people had oome to think that revival such aa tbe faihera witnessed were act to be looked for in these days, and they l ad eeased to eipeot them. They did not l0"k with muoh favor on revival eff.irls But the pastor, seeing the need, prayed earneatly for divine help Then this thought came into hie mind: Ood has poured out his Spirit gracirasly in former dsjs in this very house under tbe preaching of my predecessors. Tbe names snd faces of those illustrious pre decessors came vividiy before his mind. They were older, wiser, and greater men than be. But be remembered that Ood is no respecter of person', and that he is just ss willing to pour out his Spirit now under the preachtog of bis i rvaot as he was then. This thought oj, ; put mercies gsve the faith of tbe pastor such a grasp ot his privilege as be bid never bad. His doubts vanished, md be saw the bbiting befoie it came. It was tbe beginning of a gracious work, in which two hundred souls were converted. This is precisely the way io which the Lord encouraged Joshua. "Aa I waa with Moses, so I will be with you," slid he. To us the ume promise ooroes. As tbe Lird was with our fathers, so will he be with us, His former mercies shall be repeated to all those who trust in bim.

C. BY ARTHUR L. HARDY. How do I loe her ? 'Tie a theme I fain would dwell upon I 1 love her iu the mad, fr way with which bold rivets run, I love ber as tbe roses love the first kiss of tbe suo, I love her with uofettered heart my darling I I love her as tbe mountaineer doth love bis native heights, I love ber as the soldior loves the field whereon he fights, I love her as the poet loves tbe fair Italian nights, 1 love her with unfettered heart my darling I I lova her, ay 1 I love her 'tis a song that thrills me through As tbe sailor laves the puleiog breast of ooeao's boundless blue, I love her as the dove luves with a love that's real and true, I love ber with unfettered heart my darling I I love her as the monarch loves the people whom he shields, I love her as the savage loves the lawless power be wields, Or as fair child; en wandering love the beauty of the fields. I love her with unfettered heart my darling I For she is gentle ss the breath which tropic south-winds blow, And lovely as the aui's first blush that in the east dotb glow, Sura as a saint's last, holy prayer breathed plaintively and low Who oould resist ber matchless charms my darling I OH ASK ME NOT," Love, should I set my heart upon a crown, Squander my years snd gain it, What recompense of pleasure oould I own For youlb's red drops that stain it ? Much have I thonght on what our life may mean, And what ia best endeavor ; Seeing we may not oome again to glean, But, losing, lose forever. Seeing how resists, making choice of pain, From home and country parted, Have thought it life to leave their fellows slain, Their women broken-hearted. How tessiog truth a thoussod faces claims, As in a brokeo mirror, And what a father died for io the flames II ia own son acorns as error. How even they whose hearts were sweet with song Must quaff oblivion's potion, And soon or Isle their sails be lost slong lhe all-eurrounding ocean. Oh, ask me not the haven of our ships, Nor what flag floats above you I I hold yon close, I kiss your sweet, sweet lips, And love you, love you, love you I REMBMBER. MOTHER, BOYS, BEFORE IT H TOO LATE COURT HER AS YOD Ifl'DLU A SWECruEAKT, IP TOC WOULD MAKE HER HA PPT. Thertl bow the chirp of that lonely criokot brings to mind the dear old home, yes, years and yiars aod years a;o, we sro afraid to say how many when t lie brents crept in uoder the low hinging brandies snd the graceful elm swept the riuf ol the old horns with iis amhraoe, when thn odor of phlox and tuberoses wafted in frmn the gsrilm, We rem-mber tho ('cop tlnrk shadow unler ti e tough old oulc, ami the ruddy I'shts through the red eiinaio"il win dows; thep'oiaant minis, the books, the music, a-d mother. Do you rrmcuib r mother? It is your mother we mess. i ne mother wno laugl e,l over our hiby amies, grew proud of our boyish triumphs, hid her sad heart beats when we left the home fold to win our way io the world, the mother whose hair grew gray io ber care for us, whose heart grew bumble by the multitude of her prayers in our behalf, whoBe face grew more tender as the years marked their progress! upon her cheeks, whose steps faltered and whose hands trembled be cause her bouyancy had been given free ly io our behalf. The mother wha staid in the old home while we were far a way. Tbe mother bird in tbe nest after the fledgling bad flown, There came at last a letter to us in another band, and dear old mother was at rest. Then we went home but tbe old lime home was gone forever Ah, we know, how trival everything then seemed beside mothers love. Waknow how a kiod word of old would have cheered her heart. We know how tbe business cares crowded out the home letters; and how mother watched and waited for the tardy missive. We know how ber heart bled for an old time caress, aod how she went to rest with a prayer on her lips for you. And now it is too Isle snd the crickets play their lonesome melody, while s white stone in "God's Acre" marks where mother rests after her work ia done. Remember mother, boys, before it u tos late we have yet time to show our appreeiation of her love. See her hair, is ss white as snow, snd it has been bleached by care for you. Watch her steps how they falter. Cherish her. show her your love. Court her as you would a sweetheart, if you would make her happy. All too soon this otber will be gone, snd then God grsnt the cricket song will bring us naught but ind memories. A BAD UKEAK. First Guest (at tha dance) D i you see that woman over there?
