A chilli trips singing through the dew, But the web is changed on Times swift loom. A bride is wed and the morn breaks blue: The night is dead, and the day is come. The web is changed on Time’s swift loom, ’Tis the end of life’s long retinue; A white head rests in the twilight gloom— The kindest sleep ever mortal knew. ’Tis the end of life's long retinue. Yet an angel stands in God’s high home: Eternity enwraps her view— The night is dead and the day is come! Earnest Shertlkef. DIVINE CONSTRAINT. Woe to That Man Who Does Not Accept the Divine Call. YVhen the prophet Jeremiah ’ came weary on account of the obduracy >f a rebellious people his soul was sud denly seized with a, rash purpose to abandon the work altogether in their behalf. But God, who gave him a mission to fullfill, made provision foi just such an exigency. In that very hour there came into his soul a secret constraint, we may call it a divine coereion, which he could not n st without doing violence to his bet or nature. His experience at this parti cular period it is well wcrtli onr w bile to study. ‘’Then I said, 1 will not make mention of him nor speak any more in his uame. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary of forbearing, and I could not stay.” This is not an unusual experience God chooses his own instruments, and sends every one of them forth into lib to do some important work, a task which cannot be transferred to any other being in his universe. He know eth their frame. He marks hoyv the are liable ^ /Jistvivu'agwdMMeW-* 8 ’vrfc no fruit of their labor is visible, w hen obburate heats treat as idle tales the messages of love, or combine together to propagate ungoldliness. he knows that at such a time the human word is likely to by, ‘‘I will not make monition of him nor speak any more in his name.” Faith in final victory ceases then to be the the soul’s herloc impulse. God knows this danger well He therefore provides in wisdom ana love against such a catastrophe. How does he do this? What gra¬ cious provision comes to tliwmt tim tempter in this evil hour? Will plead¬ ing voices urging ns to greater fidelity be sufficient? Will it then suffice that we recall our former vows anil sum¬ mon ourselves anew to life’s combat? No, indeed! Those will only prov to be hi;man devices, temporary and unreliable. God alone is able to take us in hand and strengthen us for our life work. He can plant in the soul a sweet, divine constraint; in case whe,e lle sees jt Accessary, a etei n, im Iterative command that extorts the cry, “Woe is me if I do not obey the supreme will.” For he does not treat all alike in these seasons of hesitation arul depression, lie knows bow to « £«* otte „, , t „ lh . co„,™, w sign of the divine presence, the certain evidence that God speaks with authori ty. How important, therefore, that every one should cherish that spiritual constraint in the soul which God is pleased to bestow, that peculiar bum WHICH tend. In promote holy courage, faith and zeal! L*-t us guard this a precious gift. The Sun day school teacher, the pastor, the Curistlan parent, need not be surprised at seasons of dearth—periods of test ing, when all efforts seern to he fruit less. But if they only can, through God’s indwelling, “hear his word” in the heart, then weariness and fainting will disappear. In this, in every other experience, the word is true: “I wiT run in the way of thy commandments when thou hast enlarged my heart.”— Chrisian Advocate. To.
