testimony: i . . r '
I had as happy a childhood as
fails to the lot of most children.
and many a lime It has been said
of me by those Who were visiting
at my father's house: This is the
happiest time in life for you. I
did not -believe it then; I did not
believe it as I grew older, and I
knew, not that it; was not true, -
r'The happiest time in your life
s to come hereafter. " llyou 1ry
to do that which is right and use
fnl to others, that wbicb is boner-
able to yourself, and that which
s for the glory and praisd of God,
every year of your life will be
bappier tban that which went
before it i
So. do not feel that yon are

hateful world. Life tn earth
grows better aud sweeter as one
goes on in it, and wha you are to
do is to try to make a success fo
that life, each one of you."

A good man will be thankful
under all circumstances, howe ver
diverse they may be. When
things go wed wilb bim he praises
the mercy of God, and his heart
is filled with gratitude. . If ill
comes upon him he magnifies the
justice of God. He is alike thank
ful. under all conditions, for he
knows that God is good and
means only good tq him. And his
thankfulness under ail circum
stances, is full of good ebeerand
strengthening courage. -
We can always find abundant
cause for thanksgiving if w'e so
desire, just as some fand it easy
lo murmer and complain if the
tmallert speck of cloud appears
in their great heaveu of blue.. If
we should thank God for all-his
goodness to us our whole lives
would be spent in thanksgiving',
for every moment brings to us
some blessing for which , we
should be thankful. Our ( faces
and our hearts, ought at least lo
reflect - back - tbe sunshine o!
heaven, which should not beal
lowed topasB without some token
Of recognition and acknowledge
ment of gratitude. We know how
we feel tbe ingratitude of other
towards ourselves, and the sin is
magnified tee thousandfold when
perpetrated against the Almigbly
hand which dispenses only bless
ings upon as. : V

; There is no finer piece of writ
ing 1n Ian Maclaren's "Beside

has seen scores of editions, than
that chapter which is called: His
other's .Sermon." , Tbe young
minister-bad just been commis

He had - been "set apirt hy his

during bis seminary coarse. It
was brilliant., It was an amaze
ment to himself.. He had to pray
to be kept humble. He, had to
pray that be might uot be called
at once -to the foremost pulpit in
the lasd. '-'It j.was a review of
modern thought. In it were
trenchant criticisms on old fash
ioned thought,. It had historical
parallels- in it. '- It was learned.
Jt was away above the audience
of plain people to wbiche was
about to preach. Jt was a mas
terpiece. On --the very night be
fore the Sabbath a change came
ever the. spirit 'Of his dreams; and
he took the sermon and threw it
into tbe red fire, and watched it
shrivel up and disappear. ; Then
ho fell upon his knees and asked
God for a plain message for a
plaiu v- people. God heard, his i
prayer-and gave him a message.
It was just such a message as the
good people needed. It was a
message about the Nazarene. It
was,, the voice of Jesus himself
saying, Come unto Me. and I
will give you rest" It held tbe
people in a holy spell. It caught
them up Into Joe third heaven.
The women . w ere weeping; the
men were subbued and softened.
They were all praying. What
was it that changed' the youug
mau's mind? . What was it told
him to throw the learned serinou
into tbe fire It was the prompt
ing influence of the youug man's
mother. Before she went to
heaven, and on ber last night on
eurtb, she called her son to ber
bedside and - gave this charge;
"If God calls ye to the ministry,
ye'lt no' refuse; and tbe first day
ye preach in yir an' kirk speak a
gude word for Jesus Christ, an'
I'll beari ye that day, Iho' ye'll
no' see me, and I'll be satisfied.'
When tbe night before-the sab
bath came" her face came before
him, and her words sounded
anewin his ears. It was this that
substituted ' tbe Christjsermon
for the sermon of self-giorifica-tion.
Tbe sermon he preached
was his mother's sermon: aod
this was the reason it told. Dr.

adopt this plan, . which should have
been adopted long ago, Formers in
