Id' the second year of the reign of Gcover certain ten wise men iourneyE to the desert . lylpffJtheBe men joined themselves together andia divers ways and by trnce'rtath methods secured a goodly v portion of the pnblie domain, lying in the midst of tne desert Afi&Clhey were two, yes, even (bxe days1 march from the nearest hamlet. And they said onto one another, n, let m here boild us a city. ;And they drove into the earth foci (takes, even one stake at each ortterioC their holding, ' 4ld :traighiway they laid out Streets and alleys thereon . niilAad they did set aside plats and ntJQuares for pablio buildings, and did" call one the conrthouse square, andone thepostofBce square, and ddi(4n.. the generosity of their jhearte set aside grounds for semi - naries, asylums, hospitals and fao ' fABd Ihrthermore city parks were , allotted and boulevards did lead to la&fbnr points of the compass. But no people nor buildings were ' there. ' PlflU did they make costly draw- logs of the city and buildings on j paper, yea ,even upon parchment paper. fvA&d magnificent hotels and other "grand edifices were builded, and railways constructed, and vast pnblie improvements erected .nb6& paper. 3V And pictures of all these were gfaV;en upon stone, yea, even upon atone fn seven colors, and very . nlaTiy thousands 6f copies were printed therefrom. lAnd then those wise men met together and said, )o, we have l fcoilded a city. Now let us Lie ourselves forth, for the harvest is ripe and the suckers be many. "And they journeyed afar. ' One went to the south. One -went to the west. One went to the north. And six gat them to the east. -'ptafooe tarried behind to furnish abstracts.' And the suckers did nibble; yea, the stickers did bite, yea, the Back ers exalted themselves and bit '-feely, ind the tender feet did swallow even the book. . ' And the town boomed. ,:And they Bold much lots, and seized much lucre. ffdlPTXB II.

" f VJ M? strange churcb.tjnfamiliar thoitagh uleasant iaoeu vera about mJ A bit of homesickness stole; over f me as I remembered tbe ' dear .heme ehurch, with Its dear hom pastor. Hymn, and Saripture. reading serVed ouly to woistea the- eye, and fill the heart with sad thoughts. ' The voice of waver Was heard! bowed my head n wrehtiy, apd .look tae opportunity to wipe the eyes that would aluiostb overflow 'As' I listened there came these words; "Bless theetrangers who 'may ' be among us today;" and then followed sweet and loving requests for , the heartsthat found themselves among artacQQfiaomed ceues on OodV lay of rest and worship. ', ' 1 : . I appropriated the loving rotuem branoe and was once moi e at home. Among strangers.1 was no 'more strange. Among the children of a common Father I, too, was child. Another Sunday 1 was in - my own church home. Familiar faces greeted me with friendly "(Jood mornings." A sweet, delicious homliness pervaded everything. At my side sat a brother from a dist ant city. He was now, as I had been, a stranger in a strange church. Remembering the sweet experience of comfprti and peace that had come to me, I waited con fidently for the prayer. So tender ly always were the sick and sor rowing remembered by our pastor, I was sure'of the kiudlj' thought for the stranger. But though tho sick and sorrow ing, the shut in onee, and the, tempted and tried wero till borne upward ou the lips of the pastor, there were bo words for tho stran ger at my side with full heart. And then I attempted to call to mind how many times in the pulpit and prayer circle I had beard the petition; "Bless the stranger with in our gates todaj;'' and lo! they were very few. And then 1 remem bered that my voice had never been liftcted in the prayer meeting for the sometime stranger, and there lodged in my mind a thought that has grown into a longing. That we might' more frequently bear the words of prayer suggesting loving remembrance of those whose hearts beat with a bit of homesick- n6$s for the home cborcb, and its laminar Sabbath scenes. Let us remember to pray for the stranger children of our great King, Obeying Orders. The Pope once stopping for the night in a small village of Italy, the inhabitants resolved to send bim a deputation. The Mayor also sug gested to present his holiness with the chief produce of the country, consisting of pineapples, figs, aud cream. The pineapples, however, were dispensed with, and each member was to carry figs and cream in silver basins. "Now," said the Mayor, with all, the gravity of office ''you are not accustomed to appear before these high personages, therefore let us have no nonsense; do what you see me do, neither tnore nor less." The deputation was arranged ao cordingly. The.Mayor placed him self majestically and magisterially at its head, armed, like his fol lowers, with a basin of figs In his left hand, and of cream in the right. At this time it was the custom to wear beards. The door opened, and the Mayor repeated Jus caution, 'Neither more nor less, I beseech you." There was a step ddwn into the room, bat the Mayor not thinking of it, the shock plunged his beard and face into the cream basin, and brought him upon his knees, with his hands and basin under him, aud his creamed lace (richly orna mented with a well lathered and dripping beard) raised, as it were imploringly, toward the represents tiverof St. Peter. The members ol ine deputation, minting, this a grave matter of form, simul taneously ducked their -' bearded faces, prostrated- themselves on their marrow-boneB, and signifl cantly east a half-inquiring and confident look at their leader, as though to says. "Yon see ae are all right."

Then cover the, top of the barrel securely with any other cloth or woolen cov ering, and alter a little while every oyster taken out from the bottom of the barrel will be as cold as you want it.
