Selfishness, th e Joy Killer “For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.’’— Phil. 2:21. £cO ELFISHNESS is the most utter destitution of a G human being,” says Dr. Herman Hooker. >.f ‘It can bring nothing to his relief. It adds soreness to his sor­ rows. It sharpens his pains. It aggravates all the losses he is liable tp endure, and when goaded to extremes, often turns destroyer and strikes its last blows on himself.” How many professing Christians there are who act as though their interest and Christ’s were two separate, opposite, irreconcilable things! They seem to be pursuing their own ends as eagerly and wasting their substance as selfishly as the world around them. Oh that they could realize that they are robbing themselves of all the soul- enriching offers of Christ, making the soul as an empty vine and as a barren wilderness! jH Valley of the Shadow r T-' HE late “Ian Maclaren” used to be fond of relating the following beautiful little story, as serving to allay the needless fears of God’s people when they entered the valley of the shadow of death. There was a dear old Scotch lady who wanted badly to go to the city of Edinburgh. But for years she could not be persuaded to take the railway journey, because of her great dread of the tunnel through which she would have to pass. One day, however, circumstances arose which compelled her to take the train for Edinburgh. For a while her fears were great, and her agitation increased as the train on its journey drew near to the dreaded tun­ nel. But before the tunnel was actually reached the old lady, worn out with excitement, dropped peacefully off to sleep, and when she awoke it was to gladly discover that the tunnel had been passed. The resurrection hope takes the sting out of death.

Be I t Hereby Resolved I N a Mission congregation in Jamaica, a collection was to be taken for missionary purposes, and one of the brethren was appointed to preside, and resolution's were adopted, as follows: “Resolved: First, that we will all give. “Resolved: Second, that we will give as the Lord has prospered us. . “Resolved : -Third, that we will give cheerfully.” Then the contribution began, each person, according to custom, walking up to deposit his gift, under the eye of .the presiding officer. One of the well-to-do members hung back until he was painfully noticeable; and when he at length deposited his gift, the brother at the table remarked: “Dat .is ’cordin’ to the fust resolution, but not ’cordin’ to de secon’.” The member retired angrily to his seat, taking back his money;-but conscience or pride kept working till he came back and doubled his contribution, with a crabbed, “Take dat, den.” The brother at the table again' spoke: “Dat may be ’cordin’ to the fust an’- secon’ resolushuns, but it isn’t ’cordin’ to de third.” The giver, after a little, accepted the rebuke and Came up a third time with a still larger gift and a good-natured face. Then the faithful president expressed his gratifica­ tion thus: “Dat’s ’cordin’ to all de resolushuns.” a» Leaving God You r Card “Acquaint now thyself with Him”• (Job 22:21). “Remember that acquaintance with God can come through no casual introduction,” said A. j . Gordon. “Call­ ing on God in the morning and leaving your visiting card of devotion, but having no care as to whether you find Him at home, and really catch sight of His face; talking to God through an interpreter—through the minister, or the sacraments, or the hymn-book—but knowing nothing of real and intimate personal conversation with Him—this is not acquaintance with God.”
