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.’’ why MFC is w >nra sms®. 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.

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 ocean, for when the root breaks 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 a few years .—Springfield {Mass.) lie publican. 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 gave no thought but to the actor’s 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.” Bernard Murphy, champion Youth Walker or Australia, says in the Mel¬ bourne Sportsmans “On Monday p revi- J oris to the match with Ormes, of Sydney, I was attacked with the ‘stitch.’ I could not walk another yard, and advised gave up all hope St. Jacobs of winning.

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. Famine's Woke.— A dozen East African tribes, bet ween the north end of Lake Nyassa and the Indian Ocean have been reduced to a deplorable state by famine. Their crops, which are tbeir main failure dependence, last were almost a total others, year. tempted Many have died, and many Arabs took by the grain the coast among them, have sold themselves into slavery for a few days’ provisions. Many of the Zulus in South Africa are also star .ng on ac¬ count of the failure of the orop of mealies, and a Zulu famine fund has been opened in Loudon. “Sho triad her prentice hand on man, And when she formed the lassies, O!" “What is woman’s worth!” asked a fair damsel of a crusty old bachelor.
