The cross ofCbrist has, in a mo* wondrous way, like the glitiefiiif eyes of God, held uiau spellbound and made him listen to its strung! story -‘like a three yeur old child' who “cannot choose but hear.” Wer. not the tacts so luiuiiiar, uien wouh. call it miraculous. Had its actim and history been capable of a priori statement, it would hare seemed, even to the credulous age, the mad deal of mail and uusiibstautial dreams For it is uot only that in the im niense history of human expc"ieuc< it stands alone, a fact without a fe low, the most potent factor of liiiman good, yet with what seems the leas inherent fitness for it, but it even up pears to contradict the most certain and common principles man has de duced lioui his experience. We di not wonder ut the cro s having been a .'.tumbling Mock to J,be- Jew, and foolishness to therGreek. have yvonilered much more had it ^A“ii anything else. In the cross by itself there was nothing to dignify and everything to depiuve. Alen would at Hist Intel pret it rather by its old associations than its new meaning. It had by its positive achievements to prove its pecnliui significance and merit before it could make out an indefeasible claim on man’s rational regard. But the ex traordiliary thing was how, with Us ancient obloquy and iutriusic uu suitubleuess to Us nestiiied end, it could ever accomplish any positive good. Theie would indeed have been little to marvel at in the post humous fame and power of Christ.

One day a teacher said to his class. “Boys, you can all lie useful if yon will. If you cannot do good by gigatdeeds, you can by little ones.’ The boys said nothing, but the teacher saw by their looks that they thought he was luistakeu. They did not believe that they could be of any use. So he said: ‘■You think it is not so, but sup pose you just try it for oue week.” “But uow shall we try I” asked due of them “Just keep your eyes opeu, and your hands ready to do anything good that comes in your way ail thi« week, and tell uie nest Sunday if you have not managed to be useful iu some way,” said the teacher. “Agreed,” said the boy a; and so they parted. The uexc Sunday those boys gath ered round their teacher with «mih mg lips, and eyes so full of light, that they tairly twinkled like the stars. ‘‘Alb boys, 1 stay Uy yotif looks that yon hare something to tell roe.” Vv-e have, sir, we have," they Raid, all together. Theu each one told his story. “I," said said one, “tbonght of go ! ing to the well for a pail of -water every morning, to save uyv mother trouble and time. She thanked me ! uie ao much, and was so greatly ! pleased that 1 mean to keep on doing | it lor her.” “And I,"said another boy, “thongbt of a poor old woman whose eyes were too dim to read. I read to her ironi the Bible. It seems to give her great comfort. I cannot tell how she thanked me.” A third boy said : “I wrg walking along the street wondering wbat i could do. A gentleman called me tn hold his horse. I did so. He gave me six|ieiicc. I have brought it to put into the missionary box.” 1 was walking with my eyes open and my bauds ready, as you told us.", said the fourth doy, “ when 1 saw a little iellowr crying because be bao lost some pennies. * I found them, a id be dried up bis tears, and ran oh teeling very happy A fifth boy said : “I saw my moth er was very tired one day.

The sainted Fletcher, among other labors of his wonderful ministry, sometimes addiessed Christian epis tles to sncb as applied to him for in struction in sacred things. The fol lowing is an extract from one of these letters: “That there is a seal of pardon, and an earnest of onr inheritance almve, which yon are af* yet a stran ger to, aeems clear from the tenor of your letter. . . I believe many people know when they receive faith, and all people when they receive the teal of pardon. When they believe in Christ they are justified in the tight of God; and when they are sealed by the Spirit, they are fully assured of that justification in their owu conscience. Some receive fai:b and the seal of their pardon, in the same instant, as the jailer. But oth ers receive faith first, as the dying thief, the woman of Canaan, David, and the people of Samaria, and the laithfur at Ephesus. Suppose, then, God gave you faith, that is, a hearty trust in the blood of Christ, and a sincere closing with Him as your righteousness and y jnr all; your way is exceedir gly plain beiore you. Hold last your confidence, but do not rest m it; trust in Christ, and remember He says, lam the way; not lor you :o stop, but to ran on iu Him. lie juice to hear that there is a full as sorauee of faith to be obtained by the -eal of God’s Spirit, and go on ftom faith to faith until you are possessed >1 it. But remember this, and let his double advice prevent your stay ing to the right or left: I irst, that ■ mi will have reason to suspect the -ineerity of your zeal if you lie down ■asy without tlfe seal of your pardon, iad the full assurance of faith. Sec •nelly, while you wait for that seal in ill the means ol grace, beware of be iug unthankful for the least degree I faith and confidence iu Jesus; be ware of burying one talent because ou have not live; beware of despl -iug the grain of mustard seed be cause it is not yet a iree.” So much from Fletcher. But bow is this 1 Are the above sentiments really scriptural-, or are they other wise 1 Is there such a thing as a di >ect witness or testimony to us by he Hoty Spirit that our sius are lor iiveu I Is fhere this sealing of the Spuit whereby we know that we are tie children id'God i Is such a lailh imssilde as a faith of assurauce in the •xeieise of w hich one is confident and -ore that he is a saved man f If so. is this sort of laii li general, and is it lie case that most Christians are iu ■ossession of Ibis gracious assurance!

After an evening service on a re ent Sabbath a stranger vailed upon i person connected with tbe Ameri •an board, amt said: ‘*1 owe a debt ■vliicb I would like to pay you.” Tbe Manner ot tbe stranger heightened be wouder bis nurds bad excited, lie was apparently iu bumblecircum -natives, and it was not difficult to be neve that he was in debt, yet be •wed no money to the person be ad dressed.

The amount seemed so large in view of the humble cir utustauees of the donor, that he was quest ioued as to his ability to make -uch a gift. It came to light that he had a family of children, and that his trade was one from which few would suppose he could earn anything more than a bare support. Yet he an swered cheerfully, “Yes, I am able to give this, for 1 have it. It does not belong to me, I owe it all to him.’’ Would that a I Christ’s redeemed peo ple apprehended as clearly as this man the debt of love they owe. Wobby retards rather tbau for watds woik.

J^arm and Jj^iresify •CHIP DIRT FOR FRUIT TREES. The beet fertilizer to use in'setting fruit trees of all kinds is partially or thoroughly decomposed chip dirt. We made use of the material for the first time some twenty years ago in planting an apple orchard, and it was a wonder to those not in the secret what caused the trees to make such a fine growth the tint season, amt aftewards, too, for that matter. This experiment was so satisfactory that when we set our new orchard, we made a liberal use of this material, with the same satisfactory result These trials have, proved to our satis faction that chip dirt is the veiy best material to mix in the soil as you plant the tree that can possibly be used, for the reason that it - holds moisture, aud is full of the elements of plaut food ; therefore, it promotes a most luxuriant, natural, and healthy growth. Kepeated trials have satis fied me that a tree is not only more sure to live, but will make double th» growth the first year (especially if u dry seasou) if some two bushels o. chip dirt are properly used in its set ting than it Would without it. A single trial will convince the most skeptical that the best possible use that can be made of this valuable material is to apply it to the soil i planting trees in order to push for ward the tree during the first pre carious stages of its growth.—Ex change. eating Without an appetite. It is wrong to eat without an appe tite, for it shows theie is no gastrii juices in the stomach, and that na ture does not need food; and not needing it, there beiug no juice to re ceive aud act upon it, it remains there to putrefy, the very thought o. which should be sufficient te detei auy man from eating without an ap petite for the remainder of his life. If a tonic is taken to whet the appe tite, it is a mistakeu course, for its only result is to cause oue to eai more when already an amount has been eaten beyond what the gastr c has been able to prepare. The ob ject to be attained is a larger supply of gastric jWJ*? and ’iota largpr sup ply of food ; aud whatever faihsto ac complish that desirable object tails to ihave any efficiency tow aids the cure of dyspepsic diseases. The forma tion of gastric juices is directly pro portioned to the wear and tear of the system, which is to be the means ui supply ing, aud this near aud tear can only take place as the result of exer cise. The efficient remedy for dys pepsia is work—out-of-door work— beueficlal aud successful in direct pro liortion as it is agreeable, interesting and profitable. CAUSES J)F COLIC. One cause o( colie in horses is giv ing cold water while they are sweat mg; auother, allowing the horse to driuk a large quantity of water after a heavy teed aud theu driving ata fast speed, or again permitting it to draw a heavy load under similar eireum stances. Another cause of colic is feeding the horse grain when very hungry. This uuimal generally eats very last wheu hungry, aud a large poriion of grain thus passes into the stomach without being masticated, aud finds its way into the intestines, where itswellsaud ferments. Wheu a boise ha* traveled a loug journey,it is best to give it a lit lie hay before it is fed with gram. Youatt says : “Some of the oats are imperfectly chewed by all horses, and scarcely at all by bun gry greedy ones. Careful att^u.ion to the feeding aud woikingef horses would save them from many diseases with which they are uow lia..le to be 1 attacked. Filling a horse rack with hay, as some persons do, and permitting a constant supply ,is only oue ol the most probable means ol' producing disease, aud the most positive to render ani mats unlit for last work. “Do bats ever fly in the day time!” asked a teacher of his class in natur al history. “Yes, sir,” the boy re plied. “What kind of bats 1” Ask ed the astonished teacher.
