The lloly Spirit la ul- ways present avion there is ooviolion, work ing w ith man's oonsaiouoeor throngh Script s', or with both. The woman who was brought to Christ for oondututialion had few aoousers when he sai l: “Lie that is without siu among you, let him first cast a stone." The Gospel writer relates that thoy, "being convioted by their own conscience, went out, one by one, bo gmuing at the tided, even uoto the lMt ’ It is the special work of tho Holy Spirit to convict ot siu.

Very many of the sweetest joys of Christian hearts are songs which have beeu learned in tho bitterness ot trial. It has been said of n little bird that he will never learn to sing the song his master will have him Bing while it is light iu bis cage. He learnB a snatch of every song he hears bat will not learn a full separate melody of his own. And the master covers the cage and makes it dark all about the bird, and then he listens and learns the one song that ia taught him, until his heart is full of it. Then, ever after, he sings the song iu the light. With mauy of qh it is as with the bird. The master has a song he wants to leach us, but we learn only a strain of it, a note here and there, while we catch up snatches of the world's song, and sing Ihetu with it. Then he comes ami makes it dark about us, till wo loam the sweet melodies he would havo reach us. Mauy of the loveliest songs of poaco and trust sung by God’s children in this world have boon taught in the darkoned chambers ol sorrow. RULES AND REGULATIONS.

But when the augol ou his leit tells of a sinful thiug tho augol ou the right says, "Forbear to re- oord that for seven hours; peradven- ture, ns the man wakes and thinks in the quiet hours, he may be sorry for it, and repent nnd pray aud ob tain forgiveness.” This is ouly a fancy, and yet it really is a true representation ol the way in which God regards oar lives. Ho is slow to see our sins or to write them down against us. lie delights iu mercy. The lesson is for us, too, for we are to repeat in our lives as God’s children some thing, at least, of his patience. Tho song of forgiveness and forbearance whiob he sings into our hearts we ought to echo forth agaiD. vVe, too, should be quick to note and remem ber all the good things of others, and slow to mark or record the wrong that we see in them.

Moody in the January Ladies’ Home Journal. "And if ouu has fully passed through the other steps of repentance it will not bo easy for him to refrain from this last step. The Gospels record the names ot two men whose oonfession of Christ is one of the most beautiful scenes in all Scripture, Joseph of Aritua- thea and Nicodemus were men who cared little for popular opiuiou. It was not ou Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem that they con fessed Him with loud hallelujahs, to clamor again with a murderous crowd a few days later for Ilia exe cution. It was after Gethsemane’s bitter watoh—aftor that night of scorn and derisiou, after those awful hours on Calvary, that these two men came forward to confess the One who had no friend to Btand with him. There never was an hour when the cause of Christ seemed so helpless. The disoiples were scat tered, the treasurer of the little body ot the Master’s followers had turned traitor, and even the leader and spokesman of their party had thrice denied his Lord, and now Christ Himself had fallen under the arm of His heathern captors. And when everything seems lost the two rulers ally themselves with His cause and beg to be allowed to give that friendless and deserted outcast a princely burial. I do not doubt but that, that one act coBt Joseph and Nicodemus everything they had for merly counted dear. And yet I be lieve that they counted that oppor tunity the crowning privilege cf their lives.
