THB INFLUENCE OF A MOTHER’S PRAYERS.
More than thirty years ago, one love¬
ly Sabbath morning, eight young men,
students in a law school, were walking
along the banks of a stream that flows
into the Potomao River not far from the
city of Washington. They were going
to a grove in a retired plaoe, to spend
the hours of that holy day in playing
cards. Each of them had a flask of wine
in his pocket They were sons of pray¬
ing mothers. As they were walking
along amusing each other with idle jests,
the bell of a church in a little village
about two miles off began to ring. It
sounded to the ears of those thoughtless
young men as plainly as though it were
only on tho other side of tho little stream
along which they were walking. Pres¬
ently one of their number, whose name
was George, stopped, and said to tho
friend nearest to him that he would go
no further, but would return to the vil¬
lage and go to church. His friend called
out to their companions, who wore a
little ahead of him: “Boys 1 boys ! como
back here. George is getting religions.
Wo must holp him. Come on, and let’s
baptize him by immersion in the water.”
In a moment they formed a circle round
him. They told him that the only way
in which ho could save himself from
having a cold bath was by going with
them.
In a oalm, quiet, but earnest way, he
said:
“I know very well that you have
power enough to put me in the water
and hold me there till I am drowned,
and if you choose you can do so and I
will make no resistance; but listen to
what I have to say and then do oa you
think best.
“You all know that I am 200 miles
sway from homo; bnt you do not know
that my mother is a hotploss, bod-ridden
invalid. 1 never remember seeing her
out of her bod. 1 am her youngest ohild.
My father could not afford to pay for
my schooling; hut our teaoher is a warm
friend of my father and offered to take
mo without any charge. He was very
anxious for me to come; but mother
would not consent. The straggle almost
cost her what little life was left to her.
At length, alter many prayers on tho
subject, she yielded, and said I might
go. Tho preparations for my leaving
home were soon made. My mother
never said a word to me on the snbjeot
till tbe morning when I was to leave.
After I had eaten my breakfast she sent
for me, and naked if everything was
ready, I told her all was ready and I
was only waiting for the stage. At her
roqnest 1 kneeled beside her bed. With
her loving hands upon my head she
prayed for her youngest child. Many
and many a night since then I have
dreamed that whole scene over. It is
the happiest recollection of my life. I
believe, till the day of niy death I shal]
be able to repent every word of that
prayer. Then she spoke to me thus:
<t « My precious boy, you do not know
—you never can know, the agony of a
mother’s heart in parting, for tho last
time, from her youngest child. When
you leave homo you will have looked for
tho last time, this side of the grave, on
tbe face of her who loves yon as no
other mortal does or can. Your father
cannot afford tho exponse of your mak¬
ing ns visits during tho two years that
your studies will occupy. I cannot pos¬
sibly live as long as that. The sands in
t bo hour-glass of my life have nearly run
out In tho far-off, strange place to
which you are going there will be no
loving mother to givo yon counsel in
time of trouble. Seek counsel and help
from God. Every Babbath morning,
from teu to eleven o’clock, I will upend
the hour in prayer for you. Wherever
you may bo during this sacred hour,
when you hear the church-bells ring¬
ing, let your thoughts come back to this
chamber, where your dying mother will
l>e agouiziug in prayer for you. Bnt I
hear the stago coming. Kiss mo; fare¬
well !'
“Boys, I never expect to see my
mother again ou earth. Bnt, by the
help of God, I mean to meet her in
heaven.” ’
As George stopped speaking tho tears
were streaming down his cheeks. He
looked at his companions. Their eyes
were all filled with tears.
In a moment tho ring was opened
which they had formed about him. He
passed ont, and went to church. He had
stood np for the right against great odds.
They admired him for doing what they
had not the oonrage to do. They all fol¬
lowed him to church. On their way
there each of them quietly threw away
his cards and Iris wine-flask. Never
again did any of those young men play
cards ou the Sabbath. From that day
they all became changed men. Six of
them died Christians, and are now in
heaven. George is an able Christian
lawyer in Iowa; and his friend, the
eighth of tho party, who wroif this ac¬
count, has been for many years an
earnest active member of tho chinch.
Here were eight men converted by tho
prayers of that good Christian woman.
Aud if we only knew all the results of
their examples and their labors, wo
should have a grand illustration of tho
influence of a mother’s pra.ycn.-~Chris¬
tian Union.
THE USE OF THE SCKIPTUEBS.
The Rev. Dr. Howard Crosby: 1 be¬
lieve that to-d*y, if there is any one
cause more prominent than another for
Christian mediocrity and Christian
apathy and Christum imbeoility and
Christian perplexity and Christian
clondiness, it is the neglect of the Bible,
and hence X know not how we can be
better employed than in putting the
Bible in its right place in cur estima¬
tion and affection by regarding its true
position in God's plan. We are believ¬
ers in a specific revelation to sinners.
We do not believe that the stars in the
sky, the birds in the air- the flowers fit
the field, the metaU, minerals and fos¬
sils iu the earth can teach us the ABO
of salvation. Niagara might thunder
its grand anthem in our ears; the Hima¬
layas might lift its august head of ever¬
lasting snow before our eyes, the rush¬
ing meteors and the myBtio aurora
might set the midnight heavens in a
biaze; or fiom the sublimities we might
turn to the gentler pictures of the sum¬
mer landscape and watch the sparkling
waters of the meadow brook, inhale the
fragrance of the new-mown grass and
iisten to the fairy mnsio of the insect
world, or, etili again, we might with
microacopio help trace the exquisite
shapes and mark the brilliant bistres of
every atom in this wonderful earth or
explore the varied marvels of Infusorial
life, and when we have done any or all
of this, the guilty conscience will not
have received one ray of comfort, the
sin-bound spirit will not have obtained
one glimpse ot liberty. The Gospel is
one grand promise and all its parts are
promises of the same family. Yon have
seen a grand star upon our country’s
flag, and all its indented outline was a
series of lesser stars—so the great prom¬
ise of Christ’s salvation is held up by
the Gospel in a grand composite of
promises, each like tbe whole shining
with a heavenly brillianoe. Is the heart
wearied with core? “I will give you
rest” is the gem which the tired one can
find in this Bible. Are the soul and
mind full of undefined forebodings?
Hero is a jewel for its wearing: “The
Lord will go before you and tlio God of
Israel will he your roar-ward.” Do you
feel your enlduees cud long for spiritual
warmth ? Here is your very Koh-i-noor
of diamonds: “How much more shall
your Heavenly Father give the Holy
Spirit to them that ask Him.’’

The It ’V. J, M. Ludlow, at the West¬
minster Church, Brooklyn: Wo have
here (Job vi., 12) the wail of a man who
has lost everything; the wail of a phil¬
osopher who from hiB seat among the
ashes looked forth npon the world and
found it vanity; the wail of one of tho
most popular philosophers that ever
ived, for in our sorrow and disgust we
are too prone to turn to his dolefulness
and pessimism for solace. Let ns try
to answer it, and let us see wherein lies
our strength and why we should hope
when our lives seem empty and value¬
less. Is it not, first, because God made
them? However seemingly worthless
aud imperfect, they yet lie upon the
work-table of the Omniscient, parts of
somo grand and complex structure which
shall endure to eternity. Secondly,
Because there is wrapped np iu them
something of priceless value, for which
Satan daily offers ns riches and power,
oven as tho King of India offered his
Iroops and treasures to the Ameer of
Afghan, asking in return simply the ex¬
change of courtesies, the gift of his
turban, because in tho folds of that
worthless turban was wrapped np a
priceless jewel, tho Koh-i-noor. Thirdly,
We know that our life lias a divine
collateral; that it has been or will here
deemed; that as a tattered banknote
will have every cent of its value made
good from the gold lying in the treasury
vaults, so our little existenoo has behind
it the wealth of the Godhead. We have
the surety that every hope and longing
and need that God has written upon
it, will be redeemed in eternity. Let us
then leave this heresy of moroseness,
and the ashes of self-abasement, throw
off tho rags of our miserable ideas of
life, and come forth into tho eternal sun¬
shine.
A Fable.
A Woodchuck who had, at great La¬
bor and many Lack-Aches, managed to
excavate a Hole for Himself in a Hill¬
side, was resting and congratulating
Himself when along came a Fox, who
said:
“Ah—nm I Just Fits me 1 I’ve been
Looking for jnst such a Den for the
last three months.”
“You don’t mean to Steal my Home
away queried tho Woodchuck.
"Might makes Eight in this Blizzard
country, and don’t you Forget it 1 Take
yourself off, or I’ll make you sad! ”
The Fox took Possession, aud the
Woodchuck withdrew, but next morn¬
ing ho passed that way to find the Fox
fast in a Trap at. the mouth of the Don.
Borne boys had Baited for Woodchuck
and caught a Fox. As they Appeared
on tbe scene Bejnard called out:
“f nm but a poor Fox, while j ,/n are
Lean o.l and Intelligent Human Ikiuga.
You have no right to Sacrifice me iu this
Manner 1”
“Ah 1 Yen, bnt this is a Q icslion of
Might ir s'-eu i ot Eight 1” was the Reply,
as ho was Knocked on the Head.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
By a ludicrous mistake of the oopyist,
one artiole in the written warrant for
town meeting posted aooording to law
in the post office in Winthrop, Me.,
reads; “To raise a sum of money for the
support of poor aud other necessary
town officers. ”
The coooannt will not flonrish away
from the seashore, and no magnet
is truer to the pole than the root
of the cocoanut tree to the

through its husks it points directly
toward the sea, no matter in what posi¬
tion the nut is placed in the ground.
The procession of decrepit little boys
who smoke cigarettes has begun to de¬
posit its victims in the insane asylum in
New Jersey. If it goes on increasing
there will have to be more prisons,
poorhouses, and pauper insane asylums
than all other buildings pat together in

There is in the jail of Multnomah
oounty, Oregon, a Chinese leper, who is
under indictment for committing an as¬
sault to murder, and the authorities do
not know what to do with him. They
are afraid to plaoe him on trial for fear
of the infection, and the Legislature has
made no provision to meet the case.—
San Francisco Call.
A Nevada paper thus notices the
death of a prominent citizen: “He
evidently died from tho same cause that
took Ben Safford off two years ago—pul¬
monary apoplexy, snperinduced by the
excessive use of alcoholic stimulants.
Old Jim had many sterling good quali¬
ties. He was scrupulously honest, a
hard-working and a No. 1 miner, and
without an enemy in the world. His
only fault was excessive love for
whisky.”
The other day a gentleman remarked
In the presence of a little knot of others
that he could not understand why a cer¬
tain individual was always saying unkind,
harsh things of him. An excellent judge
of human nature, hearing the remark,
quietly asked: “Did you ever lend him
any money or do him a favor for which
he has not paid you ?” The party said
he bad done him many favors, and thon
the gentleman said: "Oli, well! he will
never forgive yon until he has paid you
what he owes,” and this seems to be the
rule under such circumstances in most
instances.
The local paper, says a good author¬
ity, is the best read paper in the world.
All city papers cannot supply the place
of the home paper. No other contains
the marriages and the deaths, to say
nothing of divorces and births. No
other paper gives the time of tbe next
ball, picnic or political meeting; no
other publishes tho “roll of honor” of
the public schools; no other discusses
the affairs of the town and county, or
gives in detail the local newB, wbioh can
be obtained by no other source. Every¬
body reads it, and this is why the looal
paper is the best read in the world and
the best advertising medium for its cir¬
culation extant.
About a fortnight before Christmas
the vaoht Iolanthe, with three men on
board, sailed out of Port Philip Bay,
Victoria, and was never seen again. On
the 26th of December a huge white
shark was caught at Frankston, a small
village near Melbourne. Some of the
loungers on the beach facetiously sug¬
gested that relios of the missing crew
might be looked for inside the fish.
Tho shark, therefore, was cut open, and
in the stomach were actually found a
human hand, a mass of sodden rags, a
broken wooden pipe, and a gold watch
and chain. The watch was immediately
recognized as having belonged to one of
the yachtsmen who had been on board
the Iolanthe.
An Actor’s Sad Bereavement.
The Denver Republican says:—The
glitter of the stage display and the
glamour which is thrown around the life
of a successful actor aro all that the
audience sees. It cannot see behind tho
scenes nor into the heart. It knows
nothing of the drudgery of an actor’s
life, nor tho anguish which wrings tho
heart, though the actor seems to be free
from care. He cannot disappoint un
audience. It has paid to see him and
ho must exhibit himself. The inexorable
demands which an actor’s life imposes
were never better or more painfully ex¬
emplify d than at a recent performance
of “Monte Cristo,” The vast audience
Sid not know that poor Jim O’Neill, who
lived as Moute Cristo, was heartbroken.
It did not know that at that moment his
jittle child lay dead in far distant New
York and that the agonized mother had
just taken a tearful farewell of him to
attend the burial of tbe dear little one.
It laughed and clapped its hands aud

genius and dreamed not of the inward
weeping that was drowning his heart
Bat actors aro actors, and they must
strut upon the stage though tbeir hearts
break. God pity them; their lot is a
hard one.
At the Unitarian Club Mr. Sbippen
told a story recently related to him by a
Princeton professor, who had just come
from an evangelical gathering. A Ger¬
man guest, who was called upon to ad¬
dress tho body, did not sufficiently dis¬
tinguish between the accepted uses of
the words “bare” and “barren,” and
said: “It gives mo great pleas are to ad¬
dress these venerable and barren heads.”

The Eskimo Dogs.
You boys who have a favorite Carlo or
Nero at home may like to know some¬
what thing abont they have the Eskimo dogs; asking
to eat, and whether,
like your own favorites, they get three
meals a day lunches. and any number of inter¬
mediate No doubt you wiil
think that they should get ever so much
more on aoconnt of their hard work in
polling the Yet, sledges, and in suoh a cold
country. hard as it may seem, the
Eskimo dog never gets fed oftener than
every other day, and generally abont
every and starvation third day; while in times of want
in that tenable country
of ooid, the length of time these poor
dogs go without food seems beyond be
lief.
I once had a fine team of nineteen fat
Eskimo dogs that went six or seven days
between meals for three consecutive
feedings end before they reached the jour¬
ney’s and good food; and although
they all looked very thin, and were no
doubt very weak, none of them died;
and yet they bad been traveling and
dragging time. a heavy Other sledge for a great part
of the travelers among the
Eskimo have given equally wonderful
accounts of their powers of fasting. The
Eskimo have many times of want and
deprivation, suffer and then their poor dogs
mnst very much. Bat when they
are fed every other day on good fat wal¬
rus meat, and do not have too much
hard work to do, they will get as fat and
saucy and playful as your own dogs with
thieo meals a day. One of the very last
things is you would imagine to be good for
them the food they get; that is, tough
walrus hide, about an inch in thickness
and as wiry as sole-leather. Give your
team of dogs a good meal of this before
they start, take along a light supply of
it for them, and you can be gone a
couple of weeks on a trip; when you get
back, feed them up well, and they will
be as fat and strong as ever in a very
few days.— Lieut. Frederick Schwatka,
in St. Nicholas for March.
