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. —Ilerald and Presbyter. 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." . , • l have been .benefited , by praying for others; for making an errand to God for them, I have got something for myself.

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 have been doing a big business for the part week, with the Knuizehen, politi cal speaking, the barbecue, etc., to thank. Lots of people have been .in the 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 PROTRACTED Meeting at Tuckstok —Rev.
