THE ATHENS BANNER: TUESDAY iORNING AUGUST VT8i*t) :
THE PRAYER-MEE riNG PEOPLE.
In every church there is a certain t le-
meut that is expected to be at the prsyer-
meeling. After a pastor has been settled
in a church a little time he comes to know
these people. They come to be a pretty
well defined class. He has a peculiar sense
of nearness to them. They form a sort of
inner circle in the church, and the pastor
feels that they are not vety far away from
him. It is not our purpose to say that these
arc the best people of the church, and they
are better than some others,' or*that they
are the only good ouc-s. We wafit to call
the attention of the others to the fact that
there is an clement that keeps up the pray*
cr-mccting.
A pastor does not expect all the mem
bers of the church to be present m any par
ticular prayer-meeting, or if he does, he 4s
very certain to be disappointed. As a gen
eral rule, the average attendance of the best
prayer-meetings, is about one-flftb of the
whole number of church-members. It is a
good thing to be always at the meeting for
prayer and conference. It is well to set
apart the evening and- hold It with the
thought of a positive engagement. It is a
good thing to be one of the prayer-meeting
j>eople of a church, and to cultivate the de
votional, spiritual, friendly spirit that is
thcie developed. It is a great recommen
dation to a church to sustain a hearty, hap
py, mid-week service, and it is creditable
to any ono to la, numbered among those
who urc habitually present at that service.

know a savage little man
(Now children guess him if yon can)
Who often spoils the finest day
That ever comes in June or May.
He roughly tears the silken curls,
Of many little hoys ami girls;
The an oeies l face he hides with scowl*,
And round the house he gruftly growls.
At breakfast oft lac sits with you,
He spoil* the toast or dainty stew;
Or scone ti me* drives you from your seat,
And not a thing he’ll let you ent.
Your little toys ho spiteful breaks; - 1
Your pretty tuiirb e* rudely takes
And throws them ull so far away,
They’re never found though search you may.
E’en when your little prayer is said,
And you are In your cozy bed,
H<-11 linger round and madly weep,
An.l not a wink lie’ll let you sleep.
That you may ever shun the same,
I’ll tell you plain Ids ugly name;
He always comes with frown or whimper,
Mid people call him “Evil Temper.’’
APPRECIATION.
Appreciation makes stupid people bright’
cr, homely ones more comely the clumsy
less clumsy, tho diffident self-possessed. It
need not be given in words: tones are often
sufficient, even glances or gestures will con*
vey ample meaning to sensitive souls. Try
n few words of genuine approval or com
pliment upon tho most stupid person of
your acquaintance—you can always find
some point in everyone's character worthy
of praise—and note the effect; if will sur
prise you if the experiment is new to you;
try it on a woman who knows she is plain
and unattractive, and mark how her eyes
will brighten, her cheek flush, and her face
light up with something akin to beauty.
Try it on the man who lays out your walks
or hoes your corn, And see what a con
sciousness it will awaken within him. There
Is that in nil of us that responds quickly to
the voice of eulogy and longs for it; The
man dead to this is dead to every noble as.
pirution. Of all places praiso should be
moat lavishly used in the family circle.
How many of us keep all our compliments
for strangers, for those in whom' we have
not *>no spun k of vital interest; and .to the
hearts dependent upon us for sympathy
and appreciation have scarce one cheery
word! If we are so niggardly in the ex*
penditure of the sweet charities of that we
cannot squander commendations of home
folks and strangers too. by alf means let tbe
home folks come in first for their share.
BKAIN WORKERS AND THE SAB
BATH.
Dr. Farre, of London, gave the following
testimony before the Uouseof Commons:
1 have found it essential to my own well*
being, os a physician, to abridge my labor
on the Sabbath to what is actually neces
sary. I have frequently observed the pre
mature death, of physicians from contin
ued exertion. In warm climates this ii
painfully apparent. 1 have advised the
clergymen also, in lion of his Sabbath, to
rest one day in the week. I have seen many
destroyed by their duties on that day; and
to preserve others, I have frequently sus
pended them from the discharge of those
duties.
Political aspirants, public men, journal
ists, lawyers, &c., all need to heed lire Sab
bath law.
All busy meu, of whatever class, need tbe
rest of the Sabbath, and by giving to tbe
body the repose and to their minds the
cbnngo of idf»jj suited to the day, they will
assuredly gain by it.

Our lives can never rise above the reach
of our purposes. They ought, therefore, to
be Bet toward a high mark. To gain com
fort, case, and happinesss, is not tbe great
est good. To secure the gratification and
indulgence of sense may prove the deepest
and moat dreadful evil. The path of indul
gence is tbe way to moral death. Honor,
uscfullnecs, and nobility of soul, are tbe
true good for roan. These should therefore
be pursued and won at whatever sacrifice.
Every weight that hinders us is the shining
course of integrity and parity should be
ruthlessly cast aside. All company should
be disdained, all influences spumed, all
enjoyment njected, that would turn tbe
life aside from the course of strictly manly
and virtuous setionr "Life ic bard work,”
says Charles Kingsley, "any life, at least,
which is worth being called Me, w hich is
not the life of tbe swine, who thinks of
nothing but feeding himself, or of the but
terfly, who thinks of nothing but enjoying
himself; those are easy Uvea enough, but
tlie end thereof b death. The twine goes
to the slaughter, the butterfly dice of tbe
froat, and there b an end of it But the
manly life; the life of good deeds, und no
ble thoughts, and usefulness, and purity;
the life which is discontented with itself,
and which, tbe better it becomes, the more
it longs to be belter still; tbe life which will
endure into the world to come, ard on and
upward for ever and ever—that life is not
an esy life to live." . , •

BARRY'S FUN.
Crackl pop! whiz! bang!
Harry was full an d running over with
Fourth of July, although the Fourth was a
day off yet.
“You’ll get into troublo if you throw your
crackers near folks," said bis brother.
“But it’s such fun to sec them jump,” said
Harry.
His mother warned him to be careful,
but he thought he must have his fun.
The day before the Fourth he was walk
ing on the street and Baw a little boy on
the other side.
"I’ll touch him Up a little," he raid.
He threw one of Iris loudest crackers so
that it fell just at the child’s feet. The
little fellow stooped toward it, when it ex
ploded in his face.
In great alarm Harry ran over to him.
The young girl with him was very much
frightened.
“Jamie has been sick," she said, “and I
am afraid thb will make him worse."
Harry helped to carry him nome. His
eyes were hurt by the powder, and it was
many days before could go out again.
I hope Harry will learn that it is very
poor fan to make any one suffer, and that
all boys will try to ikocp Fourth of July
without annoying others.—The Sunbeam.
WATCH THE BEGINNING.
"Mamma, isn’t that stealing! 1 ” said a lit
tle boy us be locked over his mother’s
shoulder, out of the window, at Charles U.
who was raking an Apple under tbe fence
with a stick, and at the same time keeping
ait eye on Ike | ropi tutor's wiudow which
looked that way.
Yes, my boy, that’s stealing," reluctant,
ly admitted his mother.
"Isn’t Charlie a nice boy mammal"
“Well what do you think of iff"
With a child’s forcible logic, the boy an
swered, “la it nice to stealr”
This was a warm friend’s son, but the
mother’s answers would more or less effect
the judgment of her son, to whom she must
be especially true. So she said, "Of course
it isn’t; but he don't know that it is steal
ing, he thinks that it is just getting an apple
that nobody cares for, and isn't worth the
asking. He has always seemed a very nice
boy, but not possessed of liner feelings or
morals as I find my liltle boy to be."
They looked at Charley until he got tbe
coveted apple and went on bis way around
tbe corner eating; then the little b*>y said
'Charley forgot how many windows tnere
were in sight, besides God's eye."
A few years afterward Charley was taken
Up for stealing; and the mother could un
hesitatingly remind her sou of tbe (lunger
of disregarding conscience, by calling up
tbe scene they had unwittingly seen from
their window.—Lutheran S. S Herald.
CHBIHTOUR LEADER.
Everything per taming to oar usefulness
and efficiency as laborers in the cause of re
ligion depends on our consideration of our
leader. We do not serve a mere cause rep
resented by a system of doctrines and pre
cepts, nor a mere organization representing
fellowship, mutual obligation, and subject
lion to tbe authority of either officers or
courts. We follow a personal leader, who
is sopreme in his authority over us and in
to whose hands we have committed bur
lives and our powers and even our cons
sciences. This leadership is of tbe most
comprehensive character. Christ is both
our Teacher and onr King. From him we
take all our religious sentiments, not as aim
pie opinions, but as doctrines to be received
without question and to be held against all
opposition. lie dictates our duty ini all mat
ters—his teachings are our rule of faith and
practice, from which there is no appeal and
we dare not disregard; which we cordially
approve and love because they are his. To
set up .onr opinions or onr taste as against
uis instructions and commands, to interpose
objections or to attempt to modify any of
them to suit either our ideas or those of the
age in which we live, is to cast off his lead
ership—they are absolute and final. Christ
is not a mere lecturer on theology or mor
als whose utterances we are at liberty to
subject to onr criticisms, to call and choose
amongst them or to place In tbe crucible of
our own minds. “One is your Master, even
Christ.” “Follow me," i3 bis standiog order
—me alone, me in all things, me under all
circumstances, taking up the cross which
stands in the way, and denying self ever
prone to assert its own claims.—Ex.
The Street Cabs.—Tho street cars

Tbe Bishop of Wakefield, England,
preaching lately to a large gathering ol
men in Howerby Parish church, mid tbe
great danger of tbe age was in men regard
ing religion as something lying apart from
their daily life—that it was too high, aud
not very practical. He did not believe in
a religion np in the clouds. He was living
down on the earth, and wanted a religion
to help him in his daily work, in the temp
tations which came to him, and in his tri
als and perplexities. He went ou to speak
of the value and blessedness of purity in
life urging them to resist evil, in tbe
strength of Christ, in whom they bad
perfect example to fall back upon—an ex
ample which did not meet the common
idea of manliness and courage, but which
was, nevertheless, the true type of what
men should be. -Ex

is the belief among the ohl school Pres

McKee dynasty holds that the spoon
should be laid in the saucer or concealed
about the iterson whilst sipping the cof

who still adhere to the fly front pants
and infant damnation reply that accord

spoon implies dissatisfaction with the
hand and a call for a new deaL How
ever ' this may bo, the manual above re

have a great deal to do with breaking
np the practice.
A gentleman making a formal call in

rimony. The name of the maker on the

reading matter when one has said all one
