SABBATH READING.
;
“At Evening Time it Shall he Light.”
A gloomy day of clouds and rain,
All day the eaves dripped fast,
And, shut -within the house in pain,
■fro wished its hours were past.
But just at sunset, j
The galeway of the mist,
"We saw the gold, the red, the blue,
The evening light, twice blest.
The heavens all gorgeous were With hues
Ne'er traced by human hand—
"We felt its cheering light diffuse
New joy o’er all the lands
- And then 1 thought we are too swift
To call life pain at best—
Our wilful eyes refuse to lift
To see the golden west.
And yet upon us falls the gold, -
The joyful gleaming light,—
■Bare beauties at our feet unfold,
Reflected to onr right
Some, ever yearning for the light
They do not comprehend,
Relieve a dandy day is night—
Not knowing where they tend.
Sometimes a worker Toiling goes
Bent down, like pilgrim old,
Nor sees, till just nt daylight's close,
The far-off gates of gold.
If, after nil, -there's light enough
To ns at evening Riven,
What matter if the way be rough
'Thtftleadeth unto heaven.
F- E. K.
"Mamfield, Pa.
Safe In the Harbor.
Often, as we sit in the twilight mus
ing over the past, memory calls ' up
(the face of one and another who has
•Orosseci onr life-pathway for a brief
.space, and then we have lost sight of
them forever. We wonder where they
.are and what has been then: history,
and if we shall ever meet again.
-onr hearts are spiritually alive, a deep
yearning fills them for the-sopls of
these friends, and we long to meet
thorn on the shores of Heaven.
A British man-of-war was once sent
to convoy a little sloop with costly
lading, from the Cape of Good Hope
to England. They sailed together for
A time, but in a terrible storm they
became separated. The captain of the
great ship was sad, for he feared some
disaster had befallen his little friend.
Every time he thought of It, it was
trith heavy breath. Bnt when he = en
tered the harbor of Portsmouth, and
tog lifted, there was th^Iittle
craft safely anchored along side of
him. ft bad got home first.
Just such surprises there will one
day be in tbe heavenly harbor. We
•shall meet those who have passed from
our sight and knowledge here and to
gether rejoice in singing the new song;
If we are faithful to the souls of those
we meet with, we shall experience a
double joy and surprise in learning,
that our efforts were blessed to their
Salvation. Many a sad-hearted Sun
day-school teaeher who here saw no
fruit of her labors will there find pre-
cions barks anchored beside her, over
which she has wept and prayed as she
-thought in vain. A good old man
once said that when he got to Heaven
he shonld no doubt have three great
surprises, One. would be that he did
not see som9there he expected would
be there; but The greatest surprise of
all that he was there himself.—Luther
an Observer.
■ Improve your Talents.
"Take tha talent from him, and
give it unto him which hath ten tal
ents." (Matt, xrv: 28.) It seems on
first reading the parable, os though the
neglected talent -would have been more
fittingly bestowed on the occupier of
the five than of the ten, this latter .1
- , Irr - _ ■■
mg already enough. ’ n;
Oiir liord, whi
knew what was in man, represents the
the by-Standers as having so thought.
But tike talents are intended to signify
spiritual gifts; and of these it is'un
doubtedly true that the more a man
-possesses, the more he shafi-gO'onT to
acquire. Spiritual Wealth has, like
temporal,. a power of. self-accnmula-
tion. "Whosoever hath, to him shall
be given^md whosoever hath not,from
him shall be taken even that which
he seemethtorhave.”—XorrfAKnfocS;
