yUumatVst attest mt* MARY E, WRIGHT, : : Editress* THE PRAYER CALENDAR. Last winter the Christian Index recommended very highly, a prayer calendar published in connection with the Southern Baptist Conven tion for the benefit of those interest ed in foreign missions. I procured one from Miss Mary Wright, Au gusta, Georgia, who arranged and published them for distribution, and have been so pleased with it and find it so useful and interesting that I have thought many times since, I would write something about it for the benefit of those who have not seen it. A missionary calendar like all cal endars has the day of the week and the day of the month and in connec tion with each day of the year has a special subject for prayer; and. in connection with the subject, appro priate selections of scripture. A prayer calendar is not a prayer but a subject for prayer—a concert of prayer. It is utilizing the press in the joint worship of God. “I say unto you that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask it shall be done for them of my father which is in heaven. Matthew 18:19. And all things whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. Matthew 21:22. Blessed assurance! If thousands agree as touching any thing that they shall ask even if they are scattered over the globe, it is just as maeh a prayer as if they were all assembled in one house of prayer. Thus the little prayer calendar is a bond of union—giving a subject of prayer for every day in the year. For instance, a certain day being set apart to pray for each one of our missionaries, individually, Thursday, Feb. 11th, 1892 was the day set apart to pray for Brother C. W. Pruitt and wife, missionaries to China, with the text of scripture. “And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones, a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his re ward.” What an encouragement it must be to those for whom prayer is made! Our own pastors are not forgot ten for are they not missionaries too? Sunday May 22nd for our pastors. Text of scripture—“ Brethren, pray for us.” 1 Thes. 5:25. Miserable men are we if we miss the aid of your prayers, but happy are we if can live in your supplications. Ask then again and again, that we may be earthen vessels into which the Lord may put the treasures of the Gospel: Spurgeon. And again—that the kingdoms of this world may speedily become the kingdoms of our Lord and his Christ. “For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as] the waters cover the sea.” Hab. 2-14. A promise and a prayer. This is only a sample of the sub jects and appropriate texts of scrip ture, and comments. To say that it is a great help and incentive to duty does not express it. It is a calendar that meets the eye every day in the year—marking off the passing day— gone, never to return calling to Christian duty—Monday as well as Sunday—rain as well as shine—in sickness as well as health—-always with the day comes the invitation: “Let us pray.” Weak mortals that we are, we need all the helps and assistance that God in his mercy may grant us, even then, too often, go astray. All the light that we can get to make plain er the way, and easier the duty, we should avail ourselves of and thank God for it, as one of his blessings. While at the State Convention I met Miss Mary Wright, who ar ranged the calendar, and expressed appreciation of it. Her answer I shall never forget: “Don’t give me credit of it, I only followed where the Lord led.” In this centennial year, the Lord is leading, making plain his paths, may his following be a host. Mrs. L. Richards, Orange, Ga. Dear Sisters :—I wish to tell you how I have realized the truth of this Scripture : “Cast thy bread up on the waters; for thou shalt find it after many days.” For several months past, I have sent literature and written letters to sisters of,the Pleasant Grove Church, trying to induce them to have a mis sion society; but only a short time ago, did they decide to have one, and then requested me to come and help them. June 18th I wrote them to select their officers when they met for j church service that day, and I would come Sunday morning, June 19, and assist them. They selected their officers on Saturday, and on Sunday I went to their church, a drive of eight miles. During the fifteen or twenty minutes’ intermission, I explained to them the work which they were to begin, and then two of the selected officers myself went through the audience of ladies, and were encouraged by the names of fifteen sisters being given us. Had we had more time I feel sure that many more names would have been enrolled. The church is in the country, but, these zealous sisters will manage a society successfully. My pastor, Rev. D. T. Espey, made it convenient while preaching his sermon to speak to the sisters of their newly begun work ; at the same time appealing to the brethren, to not only encourage these efforts, but also, to awake to a full sense of their own privileges and duties. I would to God that Georgia had more such earnest and zealous pas tors. In his address before our soci ty in May, he reviewed the reports of our church since the organization of the society, telling us tha'tin 1885, the year in which wc organized, the church’s report for missions was ten dollars, but last year two hundred dollars. While a few women in this church have made their way, in this work, in company with their pastor, yet I thank God that there are women in some parts of Georgia who are marching forward in spite of disap proving pastors. Oh, that our state may be flooded with literature informing pastors and their flocks of the great possibilities of this Missionary Centennial. Let us “attempt great things for God, and expect great things from God.” Ellen Pitts. Summerville, Ga. Written for The Index. FROM ALBAMA. USEFUL OR ORNAMENTAL, WHICH ? In my little book of “Dots and Dashes for sermonettes,” I find this pithy little dot: “If I had to be one or the other, I would rather be a bean pole than a sky rocket.” These two things, the rocket and bean pole, are familiar objects. Everybody knows what a sky rocket is. It is made for show, and a show it makes. It suddenly and rapidly ascends, but as suddenly and as rapidly descends. It makes a great sizzling, sputtering sound, as much as to say “look at me.” And men look. Who that has eyes can refrain from looking ? It is a beau tiful sight, one of the most beautiful displays of pyrotechnics. But it is short-lived. It throws out behind it a great shower of sparks that die al most as soon as they are born. Reaching a great height between heaven and earth, it suddenly ends its brief and showy existence with a flashy explosion, and falls to the earth with a heavy thud, and all is over. The retina of the eye for a little while retains the impression of it’s ascending track, but in a few brief moments this disappears, and nothing but a dissolving memory of the scene remains, soon to vanish. The bean pole ! Prosy, unpoeti cal, but useful. Neither showy nor noisy, its one purpose is to sustain. Through sunshine and through rain, by day and by night, unostentacious ly and uncomplainingly it bears up its burden of vines, and good health ful fruit. It stands stationary in the garden, and, though visitors may be shown through, the vines and the fruit monopolize the attention and the compliments ; who notices or speaks of the pole that sustains them ? When the time for beans is over the pole is thrown aside and forgotten until perchance, it is needed at the return of the next season, while pleasant memories of the delicious vegetable remain throughout the year. Who that has a right conception of life will not agree with the para graphist ? In other words who would not rather be useful than purely ornamental ? It is better to do solid and substantial good, though in comparative seclusion, than to make a great show and noise with out useful and permanent results. Many seek a sky-rocket life, and grow restless and discontented be cause they cannot succeed, and con sider life a failure. But to live a quiet, humble, unostentacious life of faith, supporting the weak, encour aging the faltering, comforting the Borrowing and guiding all to a high er and a heavenly life, though the world neither looks on nor applauds, this is the highest type of the Chris tian character. Gal, 6:2-10. W. M. Burr. Columbia, Ala. THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY, JULY 28. 1892. THE ORY OF THE NATIONS. Chistian, can you sit in silence W liile this crying fills the air. Or content yourself with giving Merely what you well can spare? Will you make your God a beggar W hen he asks for but his own ? Will you dole him from your treasure A poor pittance as a loan? Sound the trumpet! Wake God’s people, "Walks" not Christ amid his flock ? bits he not "against the treasury ?” Shall he stand withoutand knock— Knock in vain to come and feast us? Open, open hearts and hands, And as surely his best blessings Shall o’erflow all hearts, all lands. -Herald. FASHIONS. Flounced chiffon fans, mounted on sandalwood sticks, are quite pret ty. Colored correspondence cards show a gold edge and small initials and are now made in the long shape,with envelopes to match. Breakfast jackets are made of flow ered delaines and nainsook, and trim med with Valenciennes lace and rib bons the exact shade of pattern. A popular skirt-edge trimming on new French dresses is to cover crino line about an inch wide with silk or other dress fabric, making three strands, and then braiding them ex actly as one braids the hair, only much looser. The latest thing in sleeves is the revived fashion of the full sleeve finishing with two ruffles just below the elbow. There was probably nev er a season where there was so great a variety with so little originality as this of the renaissance. Nothing is new save that only which is so old that we have forgotten it. The Tuscan hats this season are ingeniously woven and are particular ly petty. A beautiful fawn-colored hat of this sort has an openwork band about the brim that looks like amber.passementerie. It is trimmed with reseda green tulle and has some rich damask roses nodding high on the crown at the-back. THETABLE.

Never are kind acts done l To wipe the weeping eyes, But like the flashes of the sun, They signal to the skies; And up above angels read How we have helped the sorer need, Never a day is given But it tones the after years, And it carries up to heaven It ssunshine or it tears: While the tomorrows stand and wait. The silent mutes by the outer gates. —Henry Burton, A FABLE FOR BOYS AND GIRLS. A little boy and girl were once sitting on a flowery bank, and talk ing proudly about their dress. “See,” said the boy, “what a beau tiful new hat I have got. What a fine new jacket and trousers, and what a nice pair of shoes; its not everybody that’s dressed so finely as I am.” “Indeed 1 ,, said the girl,l think lam dressed finer than you, for I have on a silk cape and a handsome feather in my bonnet. I know that my dress cost a great deal of money.” “Not so much as mine,” said the boy, “I am sure.” “Hold your peace,” said a caterpillar crawling on the hedge, “you have neither of you any reason to be proud of your clothes, for they are only second hand, and have all been worn by some creature or other, of whjehyou think meanly, before they came into your possession. Why, that silk first wrapped up such a worm as I am.” “There, miss, what do you say to that?” said the boy. “And that feather,” exclaimsd a bird, perched upon a tree, “was stolen from or cast off by some of my race.” “What do you say to that, miss?” repeated the boy. “Well, my clothes were neither worn by birds or worm.” “True,” said a sheep that was grazing near by, “but they were worn on the back of some of my family before they were on yours; and as for your hat, I know that the beavers supplied the materials for making that article, and my friends the calves and oxen, were killed, not only to furnished meat for your table but also leather to make your shoes with.” MY MOTHER'S BIBLE. “What is the meaning of this?” said a minister, coming into a house and taking up a tattered copy of part of the Scriptures. “I don’t like to see God’s word used so,” for, in deed the book had been torn right in two. “Oh, sir,” said the owner of the half Bible, “don’t scold till you hea r how it camo to ho thus.
