'ttiESDAY MORNING Couldn't Sleep.— A clergyman, was once sent for in the middle of the night "by one of the ladies of his congregation. ‘‘Well,my good woman," said he,“so you are very ill, and require the consolation of religion? What can ‘ I do for you?" “No,” replied the old lady, “I am only nervous and can’t sleep.” “How can I help that?" asked the parson. “Oh, sir, y6u always put me to sleep so ' nicely wheu I go to church, that I thought if you wouM only preach a little for me!’" The parson made tracks. Mary and her Mother. —-“ Mother, why do you read the Bible so much?" said little Mary; “haven’t you read it all through ?” “Yes, my dear, a great many times,’ said her mother. v “Well, then, you must know all there is in it by this time ; and yet you read it every day.” “Do you remember, last summer, Mary, when you were away at Miss Booker’., school y» “Ye*, mother.” “You told me that when yon got a letter from home you used to read it over and over till it was almost worn out.” “And so I did, mother.” “Well, what made you read that letter so often ? You knew all that there was irrtf “Because it seemed a pleasure, and made me think about home, aud you, and.father.” “So, my dear, I read over some parts of the Bible that I have read hundreds of times before, for the same reason, that it reminds me of my home, of my Heavenly Father, and my Saviour, and of what He wishes me to'do ; and, there fore, I love to read it.” “Is heaven my home, too, mother?’’ said little Mary; “shall you take me with you,when nto you?” “I cannot tell you, my dear; I cannot give you leave to go to heaven, but I know who can.” “Ah, you mean Jesus Christ, mother?” “Yes, my dear, you must ask him ; and you must read and learn to under stand this Book, which is like a letter from Him to us, to tell us all about Himself and heaven. When you can, I hope you will love to read the Bible as much as I do.” Family Bible. —Within the last few weeks I carried to my home one of the richest trophies. It was the family Bible that my father aud mother used to read. Dear old book 1 I feel like kissing it every time I look upon it. It is very old —no gilt edges or ridged cover. It is worn and faded, but it is one of the hand somest books I ever owned. Just on the stand, and they consecrated their alliance by a chapter from its pages. That book they read, and studied, and caressed. I see it now lying on mother’s lap as she leaned over in her old age and studied the promises. Every morning of every day the sunlight gilded that page as father opened it. They read it when the children died, and there is where a tear fell at the story of resurrection. That chap ter on the Psalms is worn by oft perusal, and this verse which says, “Cast thy burden on the Lord, aud he will sustain thee.” Ah! this was the staff they leaned on for more than three score years. This was the tree that oozed a balm for all thier heartaches. This was the light that shone when the world grew dark. Handle it gently, for every page of that book has a tender history. I will yet wrap it up in purple and damask. In my dying hour I want it close by where I cau see it. I will charge my children to let everything else go rather than that Bible. Dear old book ! I leafed you when on my mother’s knee; I looked at the pictures, while she looked into the mys teries of salvation ! May all joy fly my heart, and my sight go out into darkness, and my every cup of glad ness torn into wormwood and gall, and to mft .life become a plague, and all sweet sounds jar into discord, and my head be pillowless, and my name ac cursed, if ever I forget to honor, venerate, and love my mother's Bible. —An Albany laborer two greenbacks of one hundred dollars penominations, sewed up in a sleeve of a secoud-hand coat which he purchased of a tailor in' New York. gaib sira.
