A wealthy man died in a manufacturing town, and two acquaintances were eagerly discussing his reputed riches. “Do you know how much he’s left?” “He’s left all,” replied the other, and he uttered a solemn truth for all to ponder, whether rich or poor. Sad indeed it is when their “all” consists of earthly possessions, for when the time comes “to quit,” how appalling is the state of destitution of the soul which faces all who are “not rich toward1God.”

A man in passing down a Glasgow street, saw a crowd at a shop door, and had the curiosity to look in. There he saw an auctioneer holding up a grand picture so that all could see it. When he got it in position, he remained behind it and said to the crowd, “Now look at this part of the picture, and now at the other part,” and so on, describing each detail of it. “Now,” said' he, “the whole time I was there I never saw the speaker, but only the picture he was showing.” Thus it should be with the preacher of the Gospel, he himself hid but revealing Jesus.

W. W. Bradshak, missionary of the American Sunday School Union, had the following experience in the mountains of Kentucky: One day a boy asked me to ride with him. He told me that he was hauling the mail to the next village, and that he was paid $12.00 a month for his work. “How do you spend your money?” I asked. “Well, I help support my mother and' sister, and the bal ance I am saving to buy me a rifle. The day I get it I am going to. kill old man Yelvington. If he should die, I am going to shoot'His oldest son; and if he jumps the country, I will kill the next.” “What in the world do you mean, my boy?” I asked in amazement. He replied: “Just what I tell you! Old man Yelvington killed my father, and the day of the funeral I swore I would fix him. I have nearly enough money to get the rifle, and when I do, "something is going to drop over yonder; you know what the law of revenge is.” I was nearly speechless .'-.with astonishment: “My young friend,” said I kindly, “don’t you know if you kill that man you will have to fly from your home, go to prison, or be hanged? Do you know what an awful thing murder is? What does God’s Word say about it?” He answered, “We ain’t got no Bible at our house.” I talked earnestly and tenderly with him, bringing out the Gospel rule of forgiveness. He was deeply moved, and tears were in his eyes. Before we parted' he promised to give up the dreadful plans. I took a Bible from my bag, wrote his name in it and gave it to him. Some months after it was the means of a conversion; also that of his mother and sister. It pays to teach the children God’s Word. The little Bible saved the old man’s life, it saved our State a murder trial, it saved a boy from becoming a criminal;. and it cost twenty-five cents. One good book, one kind word, often saves a child from the downward career.
