species of human misery: that they had under their care one of those mighty hosts by which God wages war with prin­ cipalities and powers. Oh, who can fail to look hereafter with something more than pity on the deformed, on those want­ ing in the common organs or faculties; to look on them with a measure of the very feelings excited by the spectacle of in­ struments employed to the highest ends; if he remember that of every blind, and of every dumb, and of every maimed per­ son there may be good ground for say­ ing, “Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him” ? The Father’s Goodness The wife of the great Spurgeon was sick at the seashore, and on leaving her for London, Mr. Spurgeon said, “Is there anything that I can get for you?” She said, “Oh, nothing, thank you.” “But really, if I were a millionaire and ex­ pense was nothing, what would you like?" said Mr. Spurgeon. “Well,” said she, “there are two things that I have often thought I should like: one is an opal ring that I might watch the chang­ ing colors as I lie here on my couch, and the other is a piping bullfinch.” In the mail awaiting him, he found a package that contained a dainty card-case in which was a beautiful ring, with a note saying, “The writer greatly valued this little trinket, but thought that it might perhaps give pleasure to Mrs. Spurgeon as she lay suffering, to watch the changing colors.” Not long after, Mr. Spurgeon, visiting one of the members who was dying, no­ ticed a bird-cage and a bird in it. When leaving, the wife of the sick man said to Mr. Spurgeon: “You see this beautiful bullfinch? It is a favorite of mine; he is a fine singer, but the noise is too much for my husband, so I thought it might be a comfort to Mrs. Spurgeon to hear it sing. I would not give it to anyone else but you, so I shall be glad if you will accept it for her.” Here we have the de­ sire begotten, request made, and provi­ dential provision (Matt. 6 : 8 ; Mark 11: 24; Isa. 65 :24). “And indeed,” said Flavel, “it were not worth while to live in a world devoid of God and Providence.” Here, Here and Here Dr. Burrell tells of a native Christian in Bengal who was asked if he was happy; to which he replied, “Why not? I have Christ here,” laying his hand on his breast; “and Christ here,” laying his hand on his Bible; “and Christ yonder," pointing to the skies.

A Preacher’s Prayer

I do not ask That crowds may throng the temple, That standing room be at a price, I only ask that as I voice the message, They may see Christ. I do not ask For churchly pomp or pageant, Or music such as wealth alone can buy, I only ask that as I voice the message He may be nigh. I do not ask That men may sound my praises Or headlines spread my name abroad, I only pray that as I voice the message, Hearts may find God. I do not ask For earthly place or laurel, Or of this world’s distinction any part, I only ask when I have voiced the message, My Saviour’s heart. —Ralph S. Centiman in the "Michigan Christian Advocate

The arrow points to the all - important Hyo-Glossus muscle. Whether your voice is strong or weak, pleas­ ant or unpleasant, harsh or melodious, depends upon the de­ velopment o f that muscle.

ing more efficient, and the crudest begin­ ner may have good hope. Every increase in mental power, in spiritual appre­ hension, makes one a better reader; and improved reading in turn brings enlarged mental and spiritual power. It is an end­ less chain of profitable reactions. Who­ ever has in his heart the beginnings of book blessedness has entered upon a path that reaches through eternity; for if there are no books in heaven there is certainly something of the same kind, only far better. The Divine End of Affliction We cannot but dwell with the greatest interest on these words: “that the works of God might be made manifest in him,” They seem like a shield of protection thrown gracefully by our blessed Re­ deemer round the most helpless of our race. They give a kind of dignity to de­ formity, not only securing it from con­ tempt, but requiring for it respect; de­ nouncing not merely those who could treat it with ridicule or neglect, but those also who fail to discern in it a means for advancing God’s vast, if unscrutable, pur­ poses. I would have the words engraven as a motto over every asylum for the blind, the deaf, the crippled, the dumb. They would teach the supporters of such noble institutions that they were doing something more than mitigating a certain
