should meditate in prayer each evening
upon the words of Frederick Deering
Blake: '"Not what has happened to myself
today, but what has happened to
others through me?that should be my
thought." Suppose we should ask Christ
in the early mornmg, daily, to make the
purpose and passion of our life that day
his constant, direct enrichment of others
through us. There would be little time
then for self-seeking?even for feeling
our own spiritual pulse and selfishly,
hiuderingly concerning ourselves about
getting a greater blessing from Christ.
Christ will take abundant care of our
blessing if we will let him use us abundantly

Sallie J. Conway, a noble Christian
woman of this city entered into her rest
on last Tuesday. In the course of a
merited tribute to her character published
in the "Dally Progress," of this
c?ty, by Mr. J. Edwin "Wood, be quotes
the following couplet, the author of
whioh I do not know:
"Who knows but that this lifo is real
death,
And whether death is not whn; men
call life?"
These lines have brought to my mind
an exquisite poem which first appeared
in "Arthur's Home Journal," of July,
1863. It waB at first attributed to Sir
Edward Bulwer Littleton, but a thorough
investigation conducted by Lippmcott's
Magazine traced its paternity
to Mr. J. L. McCreery, a native, and
at that time a resident of Iowa, but who
afterwards moved to Washington City,
and published a volume of poetry, entitled,
"Songs of Toil and Triumph."
The volume, however, contains nothing
equal to the poem published in the
Home Journal, which was so much admired
that it was widely printed
throughout this country, and in England,
Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Canada,
and even in Australia. The readers of
The Presbyterian will be gratified by
its publication in your paper, and accordingly
I herewith enclose it to you.
Very respeotfully,
L. S. Marye.
THERE IS KO DEATH.
There is no death! The stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore,
And bright in heaven's be-jewelled
crown
They shine forevermore.
There is no death. The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer
showers
To golden grain, or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow-tinted flowers.
The granite rocks disorganize
To feed the hungry moss they bear;
The forest leaves drink daily life
From out the viewless air.
There is no death. The leaves may fall,
The flowers may fade and pass away;
They only wait through wintry hours
The coming of the May.
There is no death. An angel form
Walks o'er the earth with silent tread;
He bears our best loved tilings away,
And then we call them dead.
He leaves our hearts all desolate,
He plucks our fairest, sweetest
flowers;
TranBDlanted Into bliss. +h<*v -now
Adorn Immortal bowers.
The bird-like voice, whose joyous tones
Made glad this scene of sin and strife,
Sings now an everlasting song
Beneath the tree of life.
And when be sees a smile so bright
Of hearts too pure for taint and vice,
He bears it to that world of light
To dwell in Paradise.
Born into that undying life
They leave us but to come again.
With Joy we welcome them; the same
Except in sin and pain.
And ever near us, though unseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread.
For all the boundless universe
Is life; there are no dead.

start. Several efforts proved unavailing. Passengers
listened to the puffing, and
tried to look out of the frost-coated win- v>
dows to see the wheels spin around. tl
That engine might have been stand- n
mg there yet If it had not been for some o
sand that it carried along just for Buch tl
emergencies. A little of this sand was n
sifted on the rails, the throtttle lever g
pulled, and the wheels began to turn? d
and get somewhere by the turning. The c'.
sand performed two functions?it pre- w
vented the drivers from slipping, and en- e:
abled the engine to get ahead. The tl
sand furnished grit, and the wheels w
grasped the rails with a strong grip. n<
A great many lives are like the stall- it
ed engine. They have steam up and it
the throttle valve is open, but they do
not get very far. They are quite active, w
but all the activity iB swallowed up on s]
personal motion. These lives slip. They
can't get forward. They need grit. They
lack something which causes friction; a.

The place for sand is under the
heels, not on the delicately adjusted
lafts and bearings. These latter are
