Sweet day of rest! the very sound is healing— 
A hush amid the conflict and the strife; 
The calm of heaven is softly round us stealing. 
We hear the whispers of a holier life. 
Earth's misty veil that hangs so closely round us 
Is gently lifted this one day in seven; 
And pressing: cares which in their net hnvn bound ns 
Retire. and leave us transient gleams of heaven. 
This day on which thn Saviour rose to glory 
Has left a sinning- radiance on Its track; 
Again wo hear with Joy " the old, old story 
Our childhood’s faith on wings of light comes back. 
Oh, wherefore, wherefore should welose thn blessing, 
When morn restores the round of earthly care ? 
Happy the souls who all in Christ possessing, 
Breathe, e’en l>elow, heaven's pure celestial air. 
And wo, amidst the daily path of duty. 
May keep the oil still burning in our breast; 
So shall the toilsome path grow bright with beauty, 
And every day sliail lie a day of rest,- m. f„ n.

POWER OF PKAYEK 
Oop wants us t o be so like himself that he never 
gives us a power for ourselves without granting 
us likewise the capability to use it for others, now 
dirrerent. had hoen our case, had he made us each 
an isolated being, Independent, of all others. 
Priests are we unto our Ood. The Son of Man is 
the Great High Priest, the World’s Intercessor. 
But under him is every redeemed child of man 
exalted to the holy office of Intercessor. This 
world la Indeed a world or woe and sin, but have 
we ever tried to Imagine what It would be: without 
the prayers that day and night rise from It to 
God’s Throne? On the Sunday sometimes we 
realize tho blessedness of the great assemblies 
gathered together all over the earth, pouring out 
like praises and like prayers. Were our inner eye 
clear, not on Sundays only bnt every day we 
should see bands of holy men and women united 
In secret supplication for the world perishing 
around them. Then should we understand how 
weakness la made strong, how cold lips are touched 
as with a coal from God’s altar, and speak words 
of life, We know sorrowful hearts, can we com¬ 
fort them? We know anxious, burdened lives, 
can we help them? “ No,” we arc ready to say: 
But, blessed he God, the help we cannot bring 
we can gain. Why should love’s pleading be so 
powerful tn the Saviour’s ear, do we ask? Be¬ 
cause he la himself the pleader, because with each 
hour of bis eternal life is linked his own Interces¬ 
sion. Reverently vet confidently may we feel It.

All about 
Thk poet Longfellow tells of “ .sand&lphon, the 
angel of pnyer," how 
He gather*the prayers us he stand*. 
And they change into flower* in hi* hand*, 
Into garlands of purple and rod, 
And through the great oitj' immortal 
I* wafted the fragrance they shed.” 
The picture ts hut a reflection of John’s vision 
a,i Patinos where the angel offers to the Lamb on 
the golden altar the vials odorous with “the 
prayers of the saints.” Are we praying “even¬ 
ing, morning, and at noon," praying *• seven tunes 
a dayor, Indeed, “ without ceasing?” Then are 
we swelling the volume of that perfume which 
Jesus dally delights to receive,—Church Union.

I cannot but believe that there Is what I can 
best term emotional recognition, on the part of 
the Eternal Father, of good or evil In his children; 
that, if there be joy In heaven over the penitent 
sinner, He, chief of all, fee]6 that Joy that you or 
I give to or withhold from the Supreme Being 
conscious satisfaction and gladness by our purity 
and sanctity of spirit and conduct, or by false, Im¬ 
pure and unworthy lives. Oh, did we thus feel 
our son ship and hear about In our hearts our birth 
bonds, could there be more potent motive in the 
pursuit of good and avoidance of evil ?—Andrew

WATCHES 
Thkke la a way of doing good In tho world, on a 
small scale, which Is scarcely appreciated. A man 
who educates one child faithfully may effect a 
work of greater benevolence than one who has 
won the name of a philanthropist. The love con¬ 
centrated on a family may produce greater fruits 
than that which embraces the world. Its action 
is more Intense and invisible, but Its results may 
go abroad and leaven the whole mass of a com¬ 
munity.
