6 The Household. 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 the history of Kendall’s Spavin Cure. Read advertisement OBITUARIES. Died —Mrs. Louise Wood, grand-daughter of B J. Warden, was born July (th, 1857. bap tized at Providence church 1878. and died at her home in Washington county, May Sth, 1881. She was a most amiable, quiet and lovely child, a true, earnest, and good wife, and mother. She died we leel assured tn hope of a “ resurrection with thejust.” She leaves a husband, two children, aud grand-parents, to mourn her loss. “Our days are aa the gnus, Or like the morning flowers. ” Fribmo. MARTHA JONES.—Died In Stewert, Co., Ga, on the 3d of Ma.ch 1881, Mrs, Martha Jones, relict of the late Henry 0. Jones. In the year 1885, she was married to Mr. W. T. Bradford, by whom she was the mother of three children. He having died, she united In marriage to Mr. H. C. Jones. In early life shejolned the Methodist church. In tbe year 1876, she was baptized in the fellowship ot Pleasant Grove Baptist church, by elder W. D. Joiner. Sister Jones was truly a good wo man She loved her church, as well as ber Savior. The great object of her life was to glorify her Master. In her last afllotion she was patient, and resigned-. Her faith In Christ as her Savior was steadfast and unmovable, In her last hours she had the presence of the Holy Spirit as a comforter, and that in her departure she would be with Christ, which was far better. Sbe leaves eight children and a large circle of friends to mourn tbelrtoss. Thus God's elect are being gathered “ Home." G. W. Wxkklxy. Cusseta, Ga.; June 30th, 1881. 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. G. W. W. Cusseta, Ga., June 39th, 1881. 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.
