That, while I am a very nice man and deserve considera¬ tion, sympathy, honor, etc., yet I am not in a class all by my¬ self. « ( There are others, 9 « That draging some man down will not help me to rise to any good or noble eminence. That “envy is ignorance, imi¬ tation is suicide,’’ jeolously is venomous and covetousness a breach of the eternal decalogue. That the church does not need me near so much as I need the church. That it nothing helps to lose patience with people for not do¬ ing right. That screamiDg or bellowing, so as to rival the bulls of Bash au, will not make intelligent people think that I am “preach¬ ing with power ” That perspiration in the pul¬ pit is not so effective as perspir aaion in the study and and in the closet. The pastoral visiting cannot take the place of thoughtful sermons, studied out and pray¬ ed over. That nothing can take the place of pastoral visiting. That there is a. time for all these things,-preaching, prayer, study, visiting and all that a pastor has to do. That I have all the time 1 need for doing my God given work; but not a moment to lose to folly or idleness. That time spent in reading a good book is time well spent. And that the man who does not ‘‘read up,” will “rust out.” That all good people are not dead: that the church is not cor¬ rupt, nor in danger of going to pieces. That with a beam in my eye, lam in a poor fix to act physi¬ cian to the man troubled with a mote in his.

That to read my Bible, tc pray, to work with ail my might each day, and each day try tc he more like Jesus, is my duty aud should be my delight. That although my sphere is an obscure one, and my work an humble one, and of no sig uifiance in men’s eyes, yet my sphere is God-appointed: and my work so great that I endang¬ er my soul when I neglect it. and unless I perform it, eterni¬ ty will find it undone, and find me speechless when the King comes in That never, this side of the stars, will I find a place where the devil is not my enemy, and where I do not need “to arm me for the fight with the panoply of of God. ■ > That “it is good for me that 1 have been afflicted, > 9 Crushing the rose loses its beauty, which is short-lived, but reveals its sweet and lasting perfume. Perhaps you have made up your mind to take Scoffs Emulsion this summer.

There is no luck of wise and experienced statesmen who could represent the United States faithfully aud well at th© court of St. James. But to find one rich enough—that is the problem which puzzles the ex¬ ecutive in casting about for a successor to Ambassador Hay. Our diplomatic service in the British capital must he commit¬ ted to the care of some one who can i ( meet the social require— uientsin England,’’ and with no nonsense of republican simplic¬ ity about him.
