A CHRISTMAS MEDITATION.
“When they ha<T oamed th<r trc&Mirfs, llii-y pre
sented until him gifts: gold and frankincense, and
mjr*rh.' J
What were those offered ?
Frankincense, andund myrrh i
Sometimes it if hard to listen
To a word unwind or cold,
And to smil/ft loving answer
I>o it, arnkfou give Him gold.
Thoughts of Ilim, In world or pleasure,
Thotuv*mal) gra> of incense rare,
< aatopon a burning censer,
libyAu perfumed clouds of prayer.
The •re are sometimes bitter fancies,
Little murmurs that will stir
Even a loving heart.; but crush them,
And you give to Jesus myrrh.
Or resign some little pleasure
Give it to Him instead, to win
Help for some jxxir soul In peril,
Grace to some poor heart in sin.
Mercy for poor sinners pleading
For their souls as for y*ur own ;
Bo you make a crown of Jewels
Fit to lay before his throne.
Give Him now', to-day, forever,
One great gift, the first, the best;
Give yonrheart to Him, and ask Him
How to give Him all the rest.
—Hose Tor ter
1 UK INFINITB LOVK.
It is astonishing how many theologians
there are who would count it atheism to deny
the Infinite power or wisdom of God, but who
countit heterodoxy to affirm his infinite mer
ry. It is yet more astonishing how many
good Christians there are who would he
shocked at John Stuart Mill’s declaration that
God is not all powerful, hut who practically
believe his other declaration, that God is not
•11-loving.
The Bible declarations on this subject are
certainly sufficiently explicit. God is love.
That is, it is his love which makes him
divine. It is his love which, so to speak,
entitles him to love, worship, adoration.
Power is not worshipful; wisdom is not ador
able; for power and wisdom, if they are
selfish, ore execrable. Love alone deserves
love. If it were possible to conceive of God’s
ceasing to love he would cease to be God. If
sin could exhaust his love it would exhaust
his divinity. Ilis mercy is from everlasting
to everlasting. The demandsof ceaseless gen
erations cannot dry up the fountain. It cn
dureth forever. Time cannot enfeeble it. It
is Jesus Christ—Jesus the Saviour, Christ the
Anointed High Priest, who is declared to be
the same yesterday, to day and forever. He
Is the saruo to-day in tire ministry of iris pa
tient love that lie was when on earth he
showed himself a friend of publicans and
sinners; ho will io the same in tire eternal
future that Ire was and is in tire ministry of
his grace among men. He is God manifest
in the flesh ; not a single attribute or quality
of the Divine Bciug ; certainly not a transient,
accidental, temporary quality, assumed for a
purpose, and laid reside when that purpose is
accomplished. VVliat Christ was in his deal
ing with Judas Iscariot, and l'eter, and the
woman tlrat was a sinner, that God is in his
everlasting feeling, lie is great in mercy; He
delights lo forgive. He punishes only be
cause punishment is the necessary instrument
of the wisest, strongest love. Whom He
lovetlr he chasteneth ; whom He chasteneth
He loveth. With Him forbearance never
coases to ho a virtue. His patience is deeper
than the scit aud higher than the heavens.
There Is joy in Heaven beenuse tlruro is joy
in the Father’* heart over one sinner that
rejrenteth. To refuse to repent and return to
Hrm is to deny Him the only joy that a sinful
and erring son can give Him. Tho argument
is a brief one : My sins are finite ; Ilis love is
infinite; therefore iny sins cannot have ex
hausted iris love.
FAITH.
My lump of liopo lias grown so feebly dim.
1 gniiK 1 and fuel my way like one tlint V blind ;
I hock In vain with trembling heart to (lint
A better way that lendetli unto Him.
1 Hard, my lamp is tilled with heavenly oil.
So bright It burn.id. and then the narrow way
Seeini and broad enough and easy ; but to-day
I find wluit then was pleasure now is toil.
I'll rise and take my feeble light again—
Although 1 know that pilgrims on the way,
lu pausing me, triumphantly will say.
An untrimuied lamp bath caused him all his jiain—
Assorts! at length if 1 sincerely pray.
That when ruy lumpgoes out it will he day.

Walking by Faith, and not by Sight.
Every Christian of uiatute age can recall
instances where the providence of God lias
led hint in a path tint, at the time, was irk
some and disagreeable, and was directly op
jiosed to all previously formed purposes aud
aims. All ot us like to have oflr own way,
and the pang of sorrow that comes with this
thwarting of our cherished plans is severe iu
proportion to the devotion with which we have
pursued them. Our eyes are blinded with
tears at the time. Wo may even feel rebel
lious in our agony of grief. Aud yet it is
frequently the case that, even to our imper
fect vision, the purposes of God gather bright
ness as we recede from the pang that came
with the crisis of disappointment. We find
that tire thorny path develops unexpected
treasures of verdure ami sweetness. There is
safety where we expected only sorrow, rest
where we looked for ruin, a higher vision mid
a clearer atmosphere, even though it be pur
chased at the cost of severe toil and weary
feet.
“ I could write down twenty cases in my
life,” once observed an eminent divine,
“where I wished God had done otherwise
than he did, and which 1 now see, had 1 had
my own way, would have led to extensive
mischief.” It is so with every believer. Our
vision is imperfect. Wo see oulv in part and
we know oniv in part. The v<-ry plans which
we most tenderly cherish— to which we give
the energies of our whole lives—are often
those which, if successful, would prove our
ruin. God has promised that “ all things
shall work together for good ” for His dear
children. Fidelity to this promise often com
pels our heavenly Father to thwart onr ill
advised plans, to iireak our idols, and to stop
us in the dangerous roads we are persistently
traveling, lie sees perils where our dim
vision discerns only safety and joy. We
“ fret because of him who proposeth in the
way” from which we are compelled to turn
aside. We act like spoiled children when we
are led hack from the path we are eager to
tread. But often, in the calmer vision of
after times, we can see the peril that we have
escaped, and bless the hand that mercifully
led us in '• a way that we knew not,” and in
which our rebellious feet at first stubbornly
refused to tread.— Western lleeorder.
Jesus Christ finished the work. He came
into the world to perform. On the cross 11*
declared : “It is finished.” There was no
failure, no flaw, no iinperfectnew in the great
transaction. What if Christ’s humanity had
failed Him in the teet? What, if, in the
crucible of temptation, He had yielded?
What, if, when in the Oarden Uethsemnne,
THE QHRISTIAJS INDEX AND SOTJTH-WESTERN BAPTIST - December 26.
with forehead dewed in blood, He bad. refused
to drink the bitter cup, and pushed it impa
tiently from Ilis lips? What, if, when beaten
and spit upon and abused, He had called
down the legions of angels who awaited His
word, and swept His torturers from the earth t
Blessed be his name! His patience was equal
to the dreadful work of that awful day. He
finished the work. —Methodist Recorder.
“ PE AY UITIIMIT CKASWG.”
One thing we know and feel to be true—
man was made to pray. As in a gloomy
cave the eye turns eagerly toward the light
which enters, so in this gloomy world turns
the soul to the great-source of light. In man
there is a sense of weakness, and a feeling
that there is a strong One on whom he can
lean. Let but the soul lie free from the fetters
of sin, and it will rise in prayer as the lark in
the morning light mounts upward with joyful
notes to the sky. Even when in sin, the soul
when conscious of danger will cry to God for
help. Tire profane and reckless sailor, when
the storm sweeps over the vessel and threatens
to break it in pieces, will begin with white
lips and faltering acSents to cry, “ Lord, save,
or I perish.” The presence of great danger
and of death will make men feel that they are
as helpless as a feather in a gale, and they
will try to pray. The soul of the bravest
warrior in life’s battle-fields is at times but a
weak and troubled child which cries, and
cannot help crying, to a Heavenly Father for
strength and comfort.
So “ pray without ceasing.” Every day
and every hour you need the divine presence.
“ Come boldly,” for so you are told to come
“to the throne of heavenly grace,” and be
assured you will not come in vain.
“STRIVE, WAIT AND TRAY.”
Strive : yet I do not promise
The prize you dream of to-day
Will not fade when you think lo grasp it,
Ami melt in your hand away ;
Hut another and holier treasure,
You would now perchance disdain,
Will come when your toil is over,
And pay you for all your pain.
Wait; yet Ido not tell you
The honor you long for now
Will not come with its radiance vanished.
And a shadowßupon its brow ;
Yet far through the misty future.
With a crown of starry light.
An hour of joy vou know not
I- winging her silent flight.
Pray ; though the gift yon ask for
May never comfort your fears,
May never repay your pleading,
Yet, pray, with hopeful tears.
An answer, not that you long for,
But diviner, will come one day ;
Your eves are too dim to see it,
Yet stove and wait and pray.
Dr. Cullis tells, in one ot iris reports of an
aged Christian who, lying on his deatli-hed in
the Consumptives’ Home, was asked the cause
of his perfect pence, in a slale of stroll extreme
weakness that he was often entirely uncon
scious of all around hint. He replied," When
I am able to think, I iliiitk of Jtsirs; and
when I am unable to think of Him I know he
is thinking of me.” And lo how many of the
Lord’s dear suffering children have the words
of the Psalmist come with sweet consolation,
“ I am poor and needy ; yet the Lord thinketh
upon nre,”
There are depths of love in Christ beyond
all that wo have seen. Therefore dig deep,
and labor, and take pains for Him, and set by
ns much lime for Him as you can. He will be
won by labor.— Rutherford.

stats aud lUripcis,
Washing Silk Handkerchiefs.—To
wash a white silk handkerchief so that it
will not be stiff, mske suds of tepid water
and plain white soap, adding a tablespoon
ftil of magical mixture, and lay the hand
kerchief to soak twenty minutes, covering
it up so that it will steam ; then wash with
the hands and rinse, putting a little blueing
in the water which should be a little warm.
To Freshen Black Lace.—Lay it on a
clean table ; sponge it all over with a weak
solution of borax, about an eveu teaspoon
tul or less, to a pint of warm water; use a
piece of old black silk, or black kid glove is
better, to sponge with; while damp", cover
with a piece of black silk or cloth, then iron.
Take sufficient flour of sulphur to give a
golden tinge to a pint of water, and in this
boil three or four bruised onions ; strain off
the liquid, and with it when cold, wash
with a suit brush any gilt frames which re
quiro restoriug.
_
A Cottage "WAter Filter.—Those who
cannot afford to buy a filter may easily
make one. Stuff a piece of sponge in th
hole of a flower pot, place above tills a
layer of pebbles, then a layer cf coarse
sand, and above this a layer of pounded
charcoal three or four inches in depth
Another layer of pebbles should be placed
above the charcoal to prevent it from being
stirred up when the water is poured in.
The contents of the flower-pot should be oc
casionally renewed. But by a small addi
tion to this a cottage filter may be made,
which for practical use, is quite equal to the
most expensive filter of corresponding size.
It consists of two flower pots, one above the
other, the lower one fitted with a sponge
and filtering layers, above described, and the
upper one with a sponge only. The upper
pot should be the largest, the lower
one is strong the upper one may stand on
it, or a piece of wood with a hole to receive
the upper pot may rest on the brim of the
lower one. The two pots thus arranged are
placed upon a three legged stool with a hole
in it, through which the projecting part of
the lower sponge passes, and the water
drops into a jug placed below. The upper
pot serves as a reservoir, and the sponge
stops the courser impurities, and thus the
filtering layers of the lower one may be used
for two or three years without being renew
ed, if the upper sponge be occasionally
cleaned. Care must be taken to wedge in
the upper sponge tightly enough to prevent
the water passing through the upper pot
more rapidly than it can filter through the
lower one.
Oranges filled with jelly make a pretty
appearance on a supper table, and are ac
ceptable when much variety i*- desired.
Take somo very flue oranges, and with the
point of a small knife cut from the top ot
each a round hole about the size of a shill
ing; then, with the small end of a tea or
egg spoon, empty them entirely, taking care
not to break the rinds. Throw these into
cold water, and make jelly of the juice,
which must he well pressed from the pulp,
and strained as clear as possible. Color
one-half a fine rose color, with prepared
cochineal, and leave the other very pale;
when it is nearly cold, drain and wipe the
orange rinds, and fill them with alternate
stripes of the two jellies. When they are
perfectly cold cut them into quarters, and
dispose them tastefully In a dish, with a few
light branches of myrtle between them.
Call’s feet, or any other variety of jelly, or
different blatic manges, may be used at
choice to till the rinds ; the colors, however,
should contrast as much as possible.
Ammonia in thk lloi'sEiioi.r> ‘’The
pantry shelves are getting grimy, ptf-unger
marks around the door-latches and knobs
are looking dark and unsightly. For lack
of time llioy are left day utter day, for it is
hard work to scour all the time, and it
wears off the paint too. Now suppose the
wife has her bottle of spirits of ammonia to
use ; she takes a basin ot water and a clean
cloth, just puts on a few drops of the fluid
and wipes off all the dirt ; it is worth more
than a half day’s labor, and does not hurt
the paiut either. She could put a few drops
in her dish-water and see liow easily the
dishes could be cleaned ; a few drops on a
sponge would clean all the windows in the
sitting-room, making them shine like crys
tal. It will take ah the stains off the tea
spoons, and a tcaspoonful in the mop-pail
would do more in washing up the kitchen
floor than ten pounds of elbow grease ap
plied to the mop-handle.
Borax For Colds.— A writer in the
Medical Record cites a number of casta iu
which borax Iras proved a most r ffectual
remedy in certain forms of colds. He slates
that in sudden hoarseness, or loss of vU sin
public speakers twsingjH? from
for an hour (Tr s* as if try magic, may be
often obtained by slowly dissolving, partial
ly swallowing, a lump of borax the size of a
garden pea, or about three or four grains,
held in the mouth for ten minutes before
speaking or singing. This produces a pro
fuse secretion or saliva, or "watering” of the
mouth and throat—probably restoring the
voice or tone to the dried vocal cords, just
as “wetting” brings back the missing notes
to a flute, when it is too dry.
Milk as a Vehicle for Quinine —Mr.
11. L. Battcrbury, M.D. London, Berkltsm
stead, England, writing to the ISriti* A Med
ical Journal, observes : “It is not, 1 believe,
generally known that milk is an elegant
and convenient solvent for quinine, and that
it disguises to a great extent its bitternase.
If one graiu of sulphate ot quinine be dis
solved in an ounce of milk, we shall find that
the bitterness of the draught is hardly pir
ceptible; with two grains there is rather
more bitterness, but it is not all marked. A
dose of five grains may be taken in two
ounces of milk -without an unpleasantly
bitter taste; and if the same quantity be put
into a tumbler of milk, the bitterness is i>U
but lost. This method of adrohiisteting
quinine must, in some cases, be preferable to
the ordinary way of dissolving it in acid or
spirit, especially where the bitter taste is ob
jected' to—as in the case of children—or
where the required dose is large; aud doubt
less it will be found tc possess other ad
vantages.”
To Preserve Potatoes from the Rot.
—Dust over the floor of the bin with lime,
then put in a few layers of potatoes, and
dust the whole once more with lime, adopt
ing the same plan over again. Use one
bushel of lime to fifty of potatoes. The lime
kills the fungi which causes the rot.
Onions a Cure foe Croup.—A lady who
speaks from experience says that probably
nine children out of ten who die of croup
might be saved by the timely application of
roast onions, mashed, laid upon a folded nap.
km, and goose oil, sweet oil, cr even lard,
poured on and applied as warm as can be
borne comfortably to the throat and upper part
of the chest, and to the feet and hands.
Poisonous Vinegar.—The Scientific Amer
ican announces that half the vinegar now sold
is rank poison, and a Massachusetts chemist
states that out of twelve jars of pickles, pint up
by different wholesale dealers, he build copper
in ten of them.
JEI.LY.—Beat white of the egg saved from
the cake to a froth ; add the grated rind and
juice of one lemon,and stir iu powdered sugar
until stiff enough to spread.
