LIFE PICTURES.
Deeper and darker within the room
Fell the shadow of coming night,
And over a picture half cutin wood
An engraver bent in the waning light,
••It has grown ao dark that I cannot aee,
Heaald, as he laid hla tools away.
•'Line after line, it is weailaome work,
And I have accomplished but little to-day.
I wonder if any who look at this,
The picture the artist carefully drew,
Will think how each little line must be cut
in wood, with a baud that la flrm and true.
I thought to-day as I alowly worked,
How much the picture that I have made
la like the life that we lead each day
Side by aide fall the light and shade,
And each line is like a tingle day,
And many, and many a one It takes;
And yet it la not one Hue alone
That the beauty and atreng.h of the picture
makes.
Neither one day, nor a noble deed,
That makes a life that is lovely and grand,
But the little things that it patience takee
To bear, and to GO. and to understand.
And surely, every beautiful picture must
Awaken In some ot the many who see
A longing or thought that is earnest and true,
And that helps them to braver and stronger be.
And so with lite pictures it is, I think;
But ’tls harder, far harder, to make them pure
In life than in wood, for In every life
There is much to bear and much to endure.
But our Father, the Artist above, He sees
tls worklug below, ail our struggles and strife,
And He gave to us Jesus, His Hon for a plan
To guide us in making our picture of life.
And If we do our best, though many a line
May be wavering broken, or perhaps Incom-
Yet Mhjnk He will tenderly smile on us when
Life’s picture is finished, and laid at His fbet."
—Harper's Weekly.
THE OTHER TRAIN THAT IB
COMING.
As a train was passing over a New
England railroad it struck a broken rail.
The conductor felt the shock. He knew
a car was off the track, and sprang for a
brake. It was his last brave service.
The crash came, and he was picked up
a poor, mangled wreck; his skull had
been broken. He was heard, however, to
utter these words—the last utterance of a
faithful, loyal soul—“ Put out the signal
for the other train I” Somewhere down
the line be knew another train was com
ing, thundering, crashing along, dashing
faster, faster, faster, ana there was his
train on the line! Out with the signals,
out with the signals; another train is
coming I That was his last injunction.
That other train, that other train, I
am saying to myself, the generation that
is following us; the boys and girls that
are pressing hard after us, coming along
faster, faster, faster, just ahead of whom
we are, only perhaps to be in their way,
a hindrance, an obstacle, and, possibly,
the occasion of their ruin. What need
of care, what need of caution, what need
of restfess vigilance for their sake in
speech, in act, in look, in gesture! I
want nothing to escape me that will be
an obstacle in their way. If we are on
the track, blocking it, if we are in the
way, let us take ourselves out of the way
as soon as possible.
“What will you take?” was the ques
tion asked an ‘ observant boy at table,
and referring to the drink he might de
sire.
“I will take what father takes. The
tather had received from the waiter a
glass of intoxic iting drink.
“The father heard the boy’s remark,
set aside his glass and called the waiter.
He saw the other train coming, and
cleared the line at once.
I think the saddest of all experiences
is the consciou-ness that an opportunity
for right-doing has been lost. It brings
a sad look into a man’s face to know that
he has set an example, bad in itself, and
hopelessly followed by others.
We know of an empty train that came
toastop on a gradient,the station having
been reached. In the absence of an of
ficial the train got loose, and went down
the line to meet the steamboat express.
Some one chased the runaway train but
could not overtake it. The opportunity
for the arrest of the train had gone.
There was a collision that night.
Oh, souls on the track! fathers and
mothers! your opportunity in behalf of
your boys and girls is to-day - now! Don’t
let it slip from you.
We are not only to have a clear line
for the next train, but in every way we
are to make and keep that line suitable
for the travel of the coming generation.
Here comes the work of the Sunday
school teacher, to get the uneasy, ramb
ling feet of childhood over into the road
way of the very best life.
I passed recently a large rabble of boys
in a vacant building plot. They were
noisy' and rough. What more important
work, I asked myself, than to labor for
that age and class, the coming genera
tion? Through the Sundiy-school, the
Bible, the church, we are to open a sure,
steadfast, blessed way for their feet.
Our opportunity is to-day. Did not
Voltaire make the age of five the limit
inside which character substantially is
settled? At any rate, that limit cannot
be set with safety very far ahead. I
don’t want to be so absorbed in the cares
and pursuits of my generation as to for
get the next. I want to think of and
plan for and work for the generation
coming—that other train on the track.
As the Lord helps me, I mean to think
more and make more of the interests of
the children-the other train that is
coming.— Sunday-School World.
Sleep.—There is no fact moi e clearly
established in the physiology of man than
this : that the brain-expends its energies
and itself during the hours of wakeful
ness, and that these are recuperated dur
ing sleep. If the recuperation does not
equal the expenditure, the brain with
ers ; this is insanity. Thus it is that, in
early English history, persons who were
condemned to death by being prevent
ed from sleeping, always died raving ma
niacs ; thus it is also, that those who are
starved to death become insane; the
brain is not nourished, and they cannot
sleep. The practical inferences are three:
1. Those who think most, who do most
brain-work, requise most sleep.
2. That time “saved” from necessary
sleep, is infallibly destructive to mind,
body, and estate. ’
3. (live yourself, your children, your
servants, give all who are under you,
the fullest amount of sleep they will take
by compelling them to go to bed at some
regular, early hour, and to rise in the
morning the moment they awake of them
selves, and within a fortnight, nature,
with almost the regularity of the rising
sun, will unloose the bonds of sleep the
moment enough repose has been secur
ed for the wants of the system. This is
the only safe and suflScient rule ; and as
to the question how much sleep any one
requires, each must be a rule for himself;
great nature will never fail to write it
out to the observer, under the regula
tions just given.— Hall's Journal of Health.
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, JULY 21, 1881.
FASHION NOTES.
A bonnet with one string is one of the
millinery novelties of this season. The
string is long and wide, handsomly trim
med at the end, and is passed under the
chin and attached to a pendant spray of
flowers and lace on the opposite side,
which does the duty of a string.
Moire is decidedly taking rank among
the handsome fabrics for dressy toilets.
It is worn not only in its original states
but is also combined with plain satin.
It is often used for trimming dresses of
plain woolen materials, as well as in con
junction with richer fabrics.
The newest plaited mull collars are
trimmed with point d’Aurillac lace.
Two or three rows ot the lace are used so
that very little mull is seen on tbe plaits.
A large Louis Quatorze bow of the mull
and lace trims the fiont. Silk muslin
collars are also trimmed with point
d’Aurillac.
Steel is a characteristic caprice of this
season’s mode, not only in head dresses,
but in wraps. A favorite trimming in
millinery is steel brocade ribbon, with
designs on ground of ombre gray, the
ribbon being six inches wide and dis
posed in loose folds and knots and ex
tending into strings. The complement
is most frequently a shaded del-blue or
poppy-red marabout pompon tipped
with a spiral of fine steel wire.
Lisle-thread gloves are brought ont
this season either with puffings of silk
inserted in the long arm or they show a
lace-like finish at the top. The back of
the hand also shows a little open work.
There are lisle-thread mittens and lisle
thread gloves that can be laundered.
Silk gloves show great variety as regards
length of arm. Some are ornamented
with a lace top, others are plain and the
leading shades are yellow-white, oak
brown, olive, drab and gray.

Chubch Manners. —Be on time. No
one has a right to disturb a congregation
or a preacher by‘being tardy.
Never look around to see who is com
ing in when tbe door opens. It diverts
your own and others’ attention from the
exercises, and is discourteous to the
leader.
Never talk or whisper in- church, es
pecsally after the exercises are opened.
Never pull out your watch to see what
time it is when the text is announced, or
during the sermon. Better to feed on a
sermon than to time it.
Never lean your head on the pew rail
before you, as indifferent to the preach
er.
Conform, if possible in conscience to
the usages of the church in which you
worship—kneel, stand, bow, accordingly.
Never manifest your disapprobation of
what is being said, by unpleasant sounds,
signs, or by hastily leaving.
Do not fidget, as though the service
were a weariness. Be quiet and decorous
to the very end.
Do not put on your overcoat or adjust
your wrappings till after the benediction.
No gentleman ever defiles a place wor
ship with tobacco.
Never be one of a staring crowd about
the door or in the vestibule, before or af
ter the service.
D> nothing out of keeping with the
time, place, and purpose of a religious
assembly.— Tom’inwn’s Handy Book.
Beef Steak. —If the steak is tough,
pound it well and press it together.
When everything else is ready tor the
table, build a quick fire with kindling
wood, have a thick, iron spider smoking
hot, grease it and put in the steak ; just
before the blood starts sprinkle with
salt and turn ; let it cook only a minute
or two; cut a small place in the center
and see if it is raw; if not (that is if it
merely looks quite red or pink) take it
up quickly, sprinkle the upper side with
salt spread with butter, eat while red
hot. Serve on hot platter and have
plates hot. If you have coals and a
boiler, use those instead ; never cook
beef over a slow fire and let it “ sizzle, ”
while all the juice runs out; it makes it
tough.
Personals.
Garibaldi’s hair is as white as snow.
Wendell Phillips is just sixty-nine.
Thomas Jeffer on was a good violin player.
The Emperor William, old as he is, killed
118 deer and wild boars during his recent
hunting excursion at Lexington.
Motley, the distinguished historian, affirm
ed that the gout of Charles V. changed the
destinies of the world. So much depends
upon seeming trifles.
Mr. H. H. Warner, of Rochester, N. Y., is
one-pf the mo t liberal and public-spirited of
American self ma le men, and he is using
the wealth which the popularity and value
of his Safe Kidney and Liver Cure have
brought him most admirably.
For Roses.—Get some soot from a
chimney or stove where wood is used for
fuel, put it In an old pitcher, and pour
hot water upon it. When cool use it to
water your plants every few days. When
it is all used fill up the pitcher again with
hot water. The effect upon roses that
have almost hopelessly deteriorated, is
wonderful in producing a rapid growth of
thrifty shoots, with large thick leave?,
and a great number of richly tinted roses.
Never despair of a decayed rose bush
until this has been tried.
Kidney complaints of all descriptions are
relieved at oi ce, and speedily cured by Kid
neys Wort. It seems intended by nature for
the cure of all diseases of the kidneys caused
by weakness and debility. Its great tonic
powers are especially directed to the removal
of this class of diseases. We know of per
sons that have suffered for thirty years that
have been permanently cured by taking
Kidney-Wort a short time. Try it, either
liquid or dry.—Sun.

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
the great medicine for the cure of all female
complaints, is the greatest strengthener of
the back, stomach, nerves, kidneys, urinary
and genital organs of man and women ever
known. Send for circulars to Lydia E.
Pinkham, Lynn, Mass.
The general talk is Dobbins’ Electric 3oap,
(made by Cragio de Co., Philadelphia) There
never was a soap so highly and generally
praised. It tells a story of its own merits,
that cannot be contradicted. Try it.
Ladies should remember that the sallow
and despondent invalid always gains relief
from the use of Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. It
purifies and enriches the blood, and thus
insures the vital energy of youth.
Composed of powerful drugs so compoun
ded as to produce almost miraculous cures is

OLIVIA JONES.—Died in Stewart Co.. Ga.,
on the 6lh, ot Feb. 1881, Mrs. Ullvla Jones,
wife of Daniel Jones. She was baptised idto
the fellowship of Pleasant Grove Baptist
church, by elder B. W. Steely, about the year
1860. She. by her orderly walk as a follower
of the Master gave evidence tbat sbe Wks h
witness for the truth. And as she advanced
In life, she also made advances in that Di
vine life, that enabled her to follow close by
in the footstepsof her blessed Savior, which
prepated her more fully, to live in the dis
charge of every Christian duty. During her
lAstlHness, which was for several months,
she was resigned to the will of the Master,
and died in full assurance of a glorious Im
mortality. She leaves a kind husband, eight
children, her church, relations, and a large
circle of friends to mourn her departure, but
their earthly loss is her eternal gain.

MORGAN.—Departed this life in McDuffie
county, Ga., at the residence of Bro. J. F.
Montgomery, on the Ith, of May 1881, Miss
Franclna Morgan, in the fifty-sixth year of
ber age, died suddenly from disease of the
lungs. The subject of this notice was a wo
man ot rare virtue, and great force of charac
ter. The writer of this notice worked with
our beloved sister in the Sabbath-school at
Sweet Water church, between thirty-five and
forty years, and will gratefully testify to her
love for the Master,? cause, and her constan
cy’ energy, and zeal that was according to
knowledge In every good work. Early in
life, sbe labored with her own hands, and
earned enough money to buy sufficient
clothes to wear to Sunday-school at Sweet
Water; she then entered as a pupil, and from
tbe force of her brain, and Indomitable ener
gy she advanced rapidly, and in a very short
time sbe was capable of taking a class as a
teacher, which position she held as long as
she lived. It was her choice to teach tbe in
fant class, and teach the young idea how to
sboot. In tbe Bible class it was a rare thing
for tbe leader to ask a question that she could
not give an Intelligent, and scriptural an
swer to. Shejolned the Baptist cbui ch at Sweet
Water early in Hie, was strong in the faith,
and showed It by her works. She was appris
ed that death was approaching, and was
ready, and willing to go. The church is Be
reaved of one of its best members, and society
of one of its brightest ornaments.- >
