And then a golden chariot Shall be thy reward. neverTet~go. A son of pious parents grew up to be wild and wayward and wicked. One.of the unanswerable arguments in support of the doctrine of the inherent depravity of human nature is to be found in the I fact that, in spite of precept and promise, exhortation and examble, even children so frequently swing off into reckless and ruinous courses of sin. The boy we refer to furnishes sad il lustration of the truth of this general principle. The father admonished him faithfully and sternly, while the mother prayed for him constantly and tenderly. But the admonitions were unheeted, and the prayers unanswered ; for the boy’s brow was brass, his heart was flint, and his steps fast tendered to the mouth of the pit. Becoming at length, not only debauch ed in habit, but defiant in spirit, the father lost all patience, and forbade him the house; but the mother, with a changeless and a quenchless love, such as only beats in a mother’s heart, fol lowed him up, and followed him ever, assuring him that, however low he might be fallen, there was one that would never cease to love him, and to pray for him. At length, her patient solicitude seem ed likely to be rewarded ; for the dissi pated son, roused to desperate struggle by the consciousness of degradation, shook off his shackles and reformed his life. At the mother’s entreaty, the father relented ; and the prodigal was not only restored to the family circle, but was set up in business by funds which his father furnished, and, for a while, was exem plary in his habits, and successful in his undertakings. But, little by little, his step grew un steady, bis hours irregular, his associates doubtful, and his business involved. The father protested, scolded, and stormed, until the dissipated and exas perated son flung himself out into the world again to wauder up and down a homeless, hopeless vagabond—a tramp. He lived on the refuse of the cook-shops, and slept in hay-ricks and station-houses. He seemed abandoned of God and of man. But there was one human being that cared for him, wept over him, pray ed for him, and desperately clung to God and her boy. And when the father would say: “It’s of no use to worry about John ; we have tried to do our duty by him, but he is utterly incorrigible, and there is no power on earth that can save him she would tearfully and hopefully, reply: “liknow it; but there is One in who can save him, and, I will never let go of my Father in heaven, or my child upon earth.” And that child was saved. Saved at last, after long years of weary waiting, Saved so as by fire. And saved instru mentally, as he gratefully declared, through the prayers and patience of that faithful mother, who was determined “never to let him go.’’ Now, this has a lesson, not for parents only, but for Sunday-school teachers, anti for Christian workers in every pos sible relation of life. Never give up any body that God puts in your way and lays upon your heart. Never let go a boy, no matter how sorely he may try your patience by apparently incorrigible habits of wickedness. His case may seem desperate; but who can tell whether God may be gracious to you that the child may live ? We have seen, time and again, so many brands plucked from the burning—so many seemingly hopeless cases snatched from the very mouth of the pit—that we have learned not to despair of anybody who is not ab solutely dead and damned. Cases become hopeless, simply because we cease to hope. If we believed in the possibility of saving them, then they might be saved ; for “all things are possi ble to him that believeth.” The-e is a sad significance in that word “abandoned” —an “abandoned” man, an “abandoned woman”—and they go to utter ruin just because they are abon doned. In conclusion, then, we wish to urge ■ with all the emphasis we can command — ] Never eject a boy from your Sunday school; never drive him out into the rayless night. If one teacher cannot manage him, give him to another. Compass him with prayers and sympathies. Let him never suspect that you have lost hope of him ; and for the Lord’s sake, and his own, never let go while life lasts.—Bap tist 'leather. Why wear plasters ? They may relieve, but they can’t cure that lame back, for the kidneys are the trouble, and you want a remedy to act directly on their secretions, to purify and restore their healthy condition.

A zealous Sunday-school teacher, who had gathered up a class of boys hitherto neglected, was one morning, after a reg ular lesson, talking to them about the great evils of intemperance. Suddenly, she said, “boys, I wonder how people learn to drink ?” A bright little fellow, son of a publican, said, ‘ I know; by tasting.’’ Children, don’t forget this.

THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST : THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1881. JOHNNY’S QUESTION. A y lung soldier stopped one day at the house of a farmer. They were kind people at the farm house; and the sol dier had good reason for remembering his visit. I will tell you why. Before sitting down to dinner, father, mother, children, and the servants, stood behind their chairs with their heads bowed, while the farmer asked God’s blessing <>n the food. After they had eaten, the good framer returned thanks to God in the same way. Every one then went to work, and the chiidren to school, all ex cept Johnny, the youngest. The soldier sat down at the window, and as he look ed out, kept thinking, “these people love God.” Pietty soon Johnny came up to him, and putting his little fat hand on the soldier’s knee, said: “Please tell me something about Jesus.” But the soldier began to talk about dogs, horses and cows, anything but Jesus. When he stopped, the little boy looked into his face again, and said : “Do tell me some thing about Jesus.” “I do not know anything about Him,” said the soldier, feeling a little ashamed of his ignorance. "You so big, and not know anything about Jesus Chiist 1” said Johnny, with a look of grept surprise. “If you don’t love and serve Him, when you die you won’t go to heaven.” The young man went out and contriv ed not to get back till after supper. The farmer’s wife had some supper already on the table when he did come, which he was about to eat, when Johnny—curious everywhere littie Johnny—still keeping near the stranger, said: “Pray first; then eat.” The soldier laid down his knife and fork, and hardly knew what to do. Tne little fellow, seeing him puzzled, folded his own hands, and asked God’s blessing on the soldier’s supper. After that, came family prayers. A Bible was put into the stranger’s hands and he read with the rest, and sang with them, and heard the farmer pray for him, who never prayed for himself. Strange new feelings came into his mind. When he got into his own chamber, he kneeled down by his bed, and prayed: “0 God of this house, be my God !” It was the first prayer he had offered in many, many years; but you may be sure it was not the last. And it was not a long time before be became ac quainted with, and could tell little John ny something about the dear Jesus he loved so will.— London Children’s Paper. Set Back 42 Years.—“l was troubled for many years with Kidney Complaint, Gravel, etc.; my blood became thin ; I was dull and inactive; could hardly crawl about; was an old worn out man all over; could get nothing to help me, until I got Hop Bitters, and now lam a bov again. My blood and kidneys are all right, and I am as active as a man of thirty, although I am seventy two, and I have no doubt it will do as well for others of my age. It is worth a trial.—(Father.)—Sun day Mercury. BET I CAX TRUST I cannot see, with my small human sight, Why God should lead this way or that for me; 1 only know he saith. " Child, follow me.” But I can trust I know not why my path should be at times So strangely hedged, to strangely barred before; I only know God could keep wide the door. But 1 can trust. I find no answer, often, when beset With questions fierce and subtle on my way, And ohen have but strength to faintly pray. But I can trust. I often wonder, as with trembling hand I cast the seed along the furrowed ground, If ripened fruit for will Gcal there be found. But I can trust. I cannot know why suddenly thestoim Should rage so fierdely round me in its wrath ; But this I know, God watches all my path— And I can trust. I may not draw aside the mystic veil That hides the unknown future from my sight; Nor know if for me waits the datk or light. But I can trust. I have no power to look across the tide, To see, while here, the land beyond the river; But this I know, I shall be God s forever; So I can trust. A Ministerial Statement.—Rev. C. A. Harvey, D D., is the popular financial secre tary of Howard University, and is specially fitted to judge of merit and demerit. In a recent letter from Washington to a friend he said: “I have for two years past been ac quainted with the remedy known as War ner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, and with its remarkable curative efficiency in obsti nate and soscalled incurable cases of Bright's disease in this city. In some of these cases, which seemed to be in the last stages, an.l which had been given up by practitioners of both schools, the speedy- change wrought by this remedy seemed but little less than mi raculous. I am convinced that for Bright's Disease, in all its stages, including the first symptoms, which seem so slight but are so dangerous, no remedy heretofore discovered can be held for one moment in comparison with this.” Coke for Wounds. —As soon as the wound is inflicted, get a little stick,—a knife or file handle Will do, —and com mence to tap gently on the wound. Do not stop for hurt, but cofitinue until it bleeds freely and becomes perfectly numb. When this point is reached you are safe—all that is neces >ary is to pro tect it from the dirt. Do not stop short ; of the bleeding and the numbness, and j do not, on any account, close the open | ing with plaster. Nothing more than a . little simple cerate on a clean cloth is necessary. We have used, and seen this used, on all kinds of simple punctures for thirty years, and never knew a single instance of a wound becoming inflamed or sore after treatment as above. Among other cases : A coal-rake tooth going en tirely into the foot, a bad bite by a pig, several instances of file-shank through the hands, and numberless cases of rusty nails, awls, etc., but never knew a failure of this treatment.—Scf-nfific American.

He was forty-three years old, July 28th, 1881 He uni ted himself to the Baptist church of Christ, at Union, Scrl ven county, on the 2,’db of Hep tember, 1857, and was an active member fn his Master’s cause up to his death. He was married to Miss Mollie Cassidy, half sister to Rev. H. E. Cassidy, who labored very hard as a minister in bis Master's cause, October 4th, 1866 He leaves a wife and four children to mourn his loss, who baa the heartfelt sym pathy of all their friends. It Is a sad affliction Indeed, we have sustained, but let us low be neath the afflicting rod with meek submls si mi. Bereaved and sorely afflicted relatives, let us strive to Imitate the Spirit of resignation, manifested by our absent loved one. God has bereft us for what wise sod loving pur pose He knows, and eternity will reveal. Oh that his death may prove a warning to sur viving relatives and friends, that we may be prepared to meet our God, for the all devas ting hand is fast hastening us to the tomb. Union Chvkcii. REEVES—FeII asleep in Jesus, at Bowden, about the first of July 1881, in the eighty first vear of her age, sister Nancy Reeves, the wife of Rev James Reeves who died in Carroll county many years go, was the pioneer preacher of all the western part of Georgia. Sister Reeves was an unpretending, unassuming Christian woman. She loved the people of God and was always willing to fill a servant’s place lor their comfort. Her whole desire was to see and feed the servants of her Master until she b came totally blind I visited her a few days before her death: heard her sa”: “O my brother, 1 can't see you, but thank God. I can hear you talk about Jesus. I will soon be where I will see him face to face ” Sister Ke. ves was a model mother in Israel; as a neighbor, second to none; benevolent to the poor. The writer bears witness to this in his own heart As a Baptist for over forty years, unmoveable, always abounding in the work oi the Lord: a faithful worker in the •Sunday school, prayer meeting, but now gone home to her reward, she left a large number of children and grandchildren scattered over the land to mo’trn their loss, but her eternal gain. We feel sure she rests on the banks of eternal deliverance. Jamis Babrow. COOPER.—Died, In Perry, Georgia, August 19th, 1881, Mrs. Mary Cooper. She was born In New York State, June 16th, 181.’;, and was about sixty-nine years of age when she died. Thus ended a long and useful life. She had received fine, early, mental training, and had a mind stored with religious truth. The wri ter remembers to have heard her say that In youth she had memorized most of the Old and New Testaments. She bad devoted most of life to teaching; and had a mind eminently fitted to that call ing. Over the young she exerted a happy, salutary influence. Asa Sunday-school teach er she had few equals. Her perfect acquain tance with the Scriptures afforded her ample means to Illustrate, and adorn the truth of each lesson. She frequently wrote for the periodicals and magazines, and prepared sev eral articles at different times, upon the sub ject of general education. She was well abreast of the times on all sub jects connected with missions, and herself, in spirit, a great missionary. Late in Hie she was married to Major Coop er, and till hisdeath added much to his com fort and success. She was a great sufferer from rheumatism, during the last years of her life , became al most entirely helpless ; but in the midst of it all preserved her faith and patience, and tried to regard the affliction sent from God. In the midst of her affliction she would of ten desire •to depart ; but then again would look upon the affliction as necessary- to her, and was willing to wait her an pointed time. Death finally came to her relief, and she is now, doubtless, in company of the Redeem ed receiving the rewards of an honorable and devoted Christian life. B. In Memorials. Died, of typhoid fever, at the residence of j his father. Rev. Thomus S. Allen, Spalding I countv, Ga., at 8:45 o’clock, p. m , on.the 30th I day of August 1881, Thomas Robinson Allen, aged 26 years. 7 months and 23 days The de j ceased Joined the Baptist church al Provi- i deuce, bpnldltig county, in his 18th year. Was , baptized by Rev. Judge John D. Stewart, and lived a consistent Christian till bis death. Was an efficient worker in Sabbath-schools: was superintendent for several years; was a diligent Bible student, often sitting up and reading the Bible after the family had retired for the night. He bore his aflllctlon with pa tience and Christian resignation ; was con scious during bls sickness that be would not recover. Told hlsslsterawhlle before blsdeatti that he loved Jesus, but desired to love him more; told his mother, when he was gone to read the places he had marked in his Testa ment, and called bls mother to him and told her to kiss him good bye, that he hail tried to live a Christian. The night previous to his ' death, he sang in a clear, full voice, “Gather- I Ingin Shtaves.” The funeral sermon was preached by the writer at the residence of his i father, from John, 11: 25, VI am the resurrect: tlon and Jbe life he that believeth in m” though hptwere dead, yeeahall he live ” Bet fore the sermon the choir sang ‘‘Sweet by and by ” after sermon, “Gathering in Sheaves.” The scene was of thrilling interest. The fa ther and mother and children and many friends weeping and rejoicing at the same time His remains were then taken and bur ied in the beautiful cemetery at Griffin, Ga, to await the glorious second coming of Christ. Thus has passed away in the bloom of youth ful manhood, a devoted son, and an affec tionate brother, and we have no doubt he is “resting under the shade of the trees” on the shining shore. We tender to the sorrowing father, mother, brothers and sisters our warmest sympathy and earnest prayers in this sad hour of bereavment. Another gold en sheaf gathered Into the heavenly garner. I. G.

Remarkable Health Record: ; “During the years 1878, 1879 and 1880, within a circuit of six miles diameter, DeLand being the center, with a population averaging over 250, many of whom came here invalids, there have been but four deaths.
