‘•BY NAME."
Id the wilderness wandering*, the At.
mighty God ottered words to Hoses which
ever ■ seined to me to involve a weight of
meaning far greater than appear* upon
their surface. “And the Lord ssid to
Mi*,I will do thie thing also that thou
hast spoken: for thon hast found grace in
My eight, aid I know thee by name."
What intimacy! whet familiarity! what dig
nity and glory! None but a friend could
call hia friend by name! And wbat must it
not be, to be the friend of the Deity iteeli!
Yet all this is sure for any one of us,
whom Jeans knows and calls by name.
Toe prophet compares the starry host to
a flock of Sheep, scattered through the
fields of apace. Litt up your eyes on high,
and behold who hath crested these, that
brlngeth out their host by number: be
calletb them by names, by the greatness
of His might, for that be is strong of
power; not one faileth." But surely one,
for whom Christ died, is worth more lo
Him than all the hosts of heaven! Ami if
the stars are so safe, because He is respon
sible lo,maintain and guide tnem, shall
not we too be tq-tally safe, whom He
calletb by name? Would He have entered
into such intimate relationship with us, if
that were not to issue in an eternal union?
There is one sure sign of Ibe true sheep:
"They know Uis voice." TLcy can distin
guish its sweet tones among all other
sounds; and to bear is to obey, “ He lead-
etb them not." In heaven He is said to
feed the redeemed as a flock, aDd to lead
them to living fountains of water, i. e.
from one fountain .to another deeper and
deeper into the heart of heaven. But
this gracious ministry is equally His work
on earth. He is always leadiug us out—
out from the old into tbe new; out from
the familiar to the untried; out from tbe
Attained to theunattained: out from expe
riences and confessions, which have
become familiar, to tbe glorions possibili
ties of Christian living. These leadings
come in many delicate and tender ways—
by circumstances, by friendships, by
books, by pessages of Scriptures; but when
they come, it will well repay us to obey
and foilow. There is no experience in Ibe
Blessed Life in which Jesus will not lead
us, if only we are faithful to tbe slightest
Intimation of Ills will—[Rev. F. B.
Meyer, in present Tenses.
PRAY ON!
BT MV. THEODOR* L CUYLXB.
Several years ago a Godly woman in
my church became very anxious for her
husband’s conversion. Shesome^ni
talked with him about bis soul—novel
sooldingly or in a hectoring fashion. I
was her habit to conduct family wor
ship and her husband always attended
the service very respectfully. One Sun
day morning she determined to spend
tbe whole day in prayer for her hus
band, without saying anything to him
about it. She did so, and tbe woman
of Canaan never laid hold on the Mas
ter with more importunity. The next
morning her husband came and took
the Bible oat of her hands, and very
tenderly said to her, “Dearie, you
have read this book long enough to ns,
now let me read it." He did so, while
she listened with a sort of dazed delight.
On the following morning he offer
ed prayer himself, and at tne next com
munion season be nnited with our
church. That good woman prayed
with her lips, and with her life also,an J
she “did not faint." She believed in
prayer, and that is more than thous
ands of good people do, who talk very
piously, and yet live and act in perfect
contradiction to every empty prayer
they offer.
I know well tbe servere strain that is
often pat upon the faith of parents as
well as of pastors. Probably more than
one Christian wife is reading this art!
cle whose heart is often bowed down to
the dust on account of the continued
impenitence of that husband who is
more than half of her own life. To all
such I would say, Pray on! Never give
him up. When you sit alone at the
communion table, sundered from him
whom your soul lovetb, plead for him
as a woman’s bearc only can pray.
Keep bia conversion before yon as
perseveringly as—in years gone by-
Cyrus W. Field kept before his mind’s
eye the accomplishment of his ocean
telegraph enterprise. Not only ask God
oonvert your husbad, but shape your
life and conduct also to help oonvert
him. Your prayers will ' not likely
avail much if you contradict them by
vour repulsive conduct, or ill temper,
or; frivolous behavior. Don't ask God
to lead your husband towards tbe Croks,
and then stand in his way. I don’t
believe that God ever grants a pray
er tc which .^..we give the
lie byour daily conduot
If you want your husband or your son
converted, then live for their con
version. Not only pray for them, but
draw them with tbe silken hawser of
your affection, and strengthen that with
the attraction of a sweet tempered, con
sistent life. Practice a holy tact If
your husband is morejready to hear the
Gospel message in some other chnrcb
tban your own, don’t quarrel with him;
go where he is likely to reoeive a bless
ing. Watch the leadings of Providence
and the motions of his heart, and then
co-operate with the Holy Spirit. I
could name more than one godly wife
in my church whose prayers for their
husbands—continued through many
years—were answered by the convers
ion of those men in the sick rooms from
which they went home to heaven. Pray
on then, ye loving wives and ye faithful
mothers and ye earnest teaobers 1 Pray
on with the importunity of love and
the eloquence of a winsome life. Who
can tell how soon it may be said to yon,
" Woman, great is thy faith; be it onto
thee as thou wilt!”—N. Y. Evangelist.
A DOG’S CHARITY.
A Chicago dog hat distinguished himself
in an unusual way. He has alway* been
tenderly cared for, sleeping on cnsLions
and living on choice bits from his master’s
table. Fora number of days it was noticed
that be seemed unwilling to eat hia break
fast in tbe house. Every morning he took
hk portion of meat between his teeth,
walked to the door, wagged hk rail, and
looked at the servant appealingly.
If the door was opened he disappeared
immediately, and would not bo seen for
several hours. If the door was not opened,
he placed hk meat on the floor and sat
guard over it until an opportunity for
escape arrived. Finally the household
became interested to know where the dog
went, end one morning hk master decided
to follow him.
He stationed himself outside the door^nd
when tbe dog appeared was careful not to
attract his attention. Bat tbe dog saw him
and immediataely assumed an air of indif
ference, as though be bad an ideaof taking
a walk, but was not quite sure that he felt
well enough.
Finally tbe dog lounged towards the
gate and sneaked out, Down the alley he
trotted a piece of meat in hia month, and
turned into a vacant shed.
When hk master reached the place.the
dog was silting quietly in the corner of
of the shed. He seemed surprised and a
little ashamed. Near by tbe last of the
meat was being eaten by another dog,
homely, dirty and unkempt, with promi
nent ribs, and evidently a tramp.
But be was a dog, if he was not beauti
ful, and the other dog’s charity was plain
ly his only support. This was a dog’s
understanding of hk duty to his fellows.—

WHITE LEGHORNS.
Im Most Popular of the Pure UMtf
Fowl* Among the Smaller Breeds.
The Leghorn fowl, bo it brown, black
or white, is deservedly popular espe
cially where eggs are the chief object in
view. Here are some statements made
concerning White Leghorns by Webb
Donnell in Country Gentlemen, from
which the attractive illustration here
given in a reprint He says:
The White Leghorns, so far as can be
known, are strictly thoroughbred, while
their numerous cousins of the same name
have been "made” by the admixture of
the blood of other breeds of fowls. Thus
the Browns are indebted to the blood of
the Black-Red Game, the Partridge Co
chin and the Black Spanish for the ex
ceeding richuesS of their colors and the
white in their ear lobes. The White
Leghorn had no need to borrow the
plumage of any other breed, and so we
find it now as it has existed for an un-
Sweet Gam and Mullein is a sure cure
for oonghs, colds, croup, consumption,
id
and all other throat and lung trouble.
CAUGJT IN POLAR ICE.
Doctor Keely, in hk narrative of the voy
age of tbe Kite with the Peary expedition,
relates an experience which la calculated
to give tbe reader a lively idea of the perils
of Arctic voyaging. Tbe ship was work
ing its way through a pack of ice, and in
eleven days of constant struggle bad
progressedjouly fifty miles. One morn
ing a lake was seen to be opening just
ahead, and Captain Pike determined to
force a passage through the narrow strip
of water leading into it.
Tne work was almost done, when all at
once the ship stopped, and would move
neither forward nor backward. It was
nippeqin tbe ice.
Captain Pike and his crew realized; of
course, the peril in which we were. The
sailors, followed by many of the
party, at once jumped on the ice aDd
attempted to open a passage with crow-'|
bars and wooden beams. Tbe ice was too
thick, however, and we were initiated into
another Arctic device.
Holes were drilled in the ice, and a bot-
filled with gunpowder, attached to
which was a fuse that would burn under
water, wss tied Jo tbe end of an oar. The
fuse being ignited, the oar, with the hot.
attached, was shoved through tbe
odening and down under the edge of tbe
ico, where it expoded. Thus, after sever-
attempts, a great cake was blown from
the edge.
Tbe ship was at once put astern, and in
few minutes was in comparative safety
a corner of what bad been tbe large
lake we bad left
Bo little did we realize onr danger that
those of ns who were not assisting the
crew spent the time in gambolling on the
ice with the dogs, or in photographing tbe
ship and the men endeavoring to release
her.
Tbe next day the captain pointed ont
the spot in which tbe ship bad been. It
was piled up with irregular dlccks of ice
from thirteen to tw*n>y feet above the
surface of the floes, showing the terrific
force with which they tab come together.

WHITE LEGHORN COCK AND HEN.
known number of years, the most not
able and deservedly popular of pure
white fowls among all the smaller breeds
of poultry.
There is an impression prevalent ii
some quarters that White Leghorns are
more prolific even than their colored rel
atives in the matter of egg production.
On this point Mr. Donnell is sure that
at least the White variety is not eur-
by any fowls in the matter of
iling the egg basket, and with them
tbe highest record for productiveness
has been made* IJe says:
Special purpose animals are at the
front now for profit, and poultry is no
exception to the rule. Leghorns can be
made to pay a larger profit on eggs alone,
if proper care and shelter be given them,
than any general purpose fowl will pay
on both eggs and meat, and the reason is
not far to see. The eggs which an early
hatched Leghorn pullet will lay in Sep
tember and October at the excellent
prices which prevail at that season give
that fowl a big start in outstripping her
larger but more slowly maturing sisters.
The Leghorn will also lay as many eggs
ig the winter if given perfectly
'arm quarters as her larger sisters, but
it is at this point that 60 many who keep
Leghorns fail. Moreover, the Leghorn
will lay a large number of eggs in the
spring and summer, when larger fowls
are persistently endeavoring to assume
maternal cares.
Coming now to the peculiar adaptabil
ity of the White Leghorn to this special
production of eggs, it is to be said that
the cockerels that are to be sold for what
they will fetch in the market and the
mature fowls that are also to be turned
off when they begin to molt will be more
readily suited for the purpose if having
only white feathers. Broilers will pre
sent a more attractive appearance if
every sign of dork pin feathers is absent,
and Leghorn chickens should be hatched
early, so that the cockerels can be sold
at a good price before the broiler season
is over, and so that an increased period
of egg production can bo secured for the
pullets. One thing should be kept prom
inently in mind by those who arc keep
ing large numbers of Leghorns for prof
itable egg production—a strain should
be secured that lays largo sized eggs, and
this trait should be kept up from gener
ation to generation by breeding only
from hens that lay eggs of generous size,
for such will command readier sale and
better prices in the market.

Professor Roberts tells how clover hay
is cored at the Cornell university
grounds. Cat it when moderately ripe,
a good deal depending on the condi
tions—weather, etc. Uses a mower
which keeps horse's feet from touching
the gra&3 after being cat. Wants no hay
tedder in the field. Does not cat until
dew is entirely off. When cut, leave
until next day. When hot, put in small
bunches, but do uot work it after
o’clock, because by that time the dew
begins to fall. Go ont next morning,
turn the bunches, do not shake, but lift
tightly and hanl in while very hot. Salt
it so as to keep it from heating too rap
idly—two or three quarts to the ton.
