PERSONAL, service. Why and How We ShonM Ho Oar Boot for the Lord. The world is. made up.of ordinary people. Now and then a gening shines like Sirius among the stars ctf the second magnitude, but the sum of two talents is the common supply. They belong to the rank and file of human beings to. whose care the interests of the world have been intrusted. In a block of dark porphyritic granite a line of fire opal is discovered. Th» colors glow and deepen in the sunlight. It is like a bed of rainbows and valued as a precious gem. The foundations of our earth are coarse and common substances, both granite and trap. They lie around us every day and we look upon them with indifference. But they rear the mountains; they hold the rivers in their course. The ice and snow have borne down hug© bowlders for walls and bulwarks. Their ledges furnish labor to. thousands of men. Because gems are hidden away in crevices a pebble need not be counted as worthless. Men and women need help along their own line. Some one is always waiting to. receive a thought that needs to be simply expressed in plain language. A woman who had passed through a season of trial and received spiritual help wrote out her experience in the form of poetry* The story was told in a homely way and did not possess what is usually termed artistic merit. The verses were declined by various publicar tions and finally found their way into, the corner of a country newspaper. They arrested the attention of a mother who had lost a child. She read! them with such a sense of comfort that she. pinned the paper on the wall and learned the stanzas while at her- work. She handed them to friends; one after another bore grateful testimony to their worth, until unconsciously the wholo circle were lifted into a higher atmosphere. W© are quick to envy others the possession of gifts. We forget that God’s plan is unfolded by the usoof such abilities as he has given, and that he alone knows the secret of fitting each influence into its place. It may be easy to supply a cupful of cold water, but nothing is more grateful to thirsty lips. The helpful souls who. are most lovingly remembered and the longest missed are those who have been mindful of small opportunities. “You will find me only a commonplace minister," said a theological student to a committee who. had brought him an invitation to become their pastor. “And you will find us only a commonplace people,” was the reply. “We ought to be suited with each other. We like to hear plain talk from a plain man.” It is your best always that helps. Not the best as we gauge by comparison, net trying to write- ©r to pray according to some cherished ideal, but simply your own best. It may seem very poor and weak, but if it has reached out and up it receives through, Christ a divine baptism. What you admire so much in another is not needed for the work God has given to- you. Doing one’s best is like a seed planted in fertile soil and watered by gentle rains. It is sure to grow, and growth includes power.—Harriet Sea in New York Observer. €Kristlan Work in tl*e Homo- Circle. Do not, my sister, bo dizzied and disturbed by the- talk of those who think the home circle too insignificant for a woman’s career, and who want to get you. on platforms and in conspicuous enterprises. There are- women who have a special outside mission and do not dareto. interpret me as derisive of their important mission. But my opinion is that the woman who can re-enforce her husband in, the work of life and rear her children for positions of usefulness is doing more for God and the race and her own happiness than if she spoke on every great platform and. headed a hundred great entoi prises. My mother never made a missionary speech in her life, and at a missionary meeting I doubt whether she eoiaJd have got enough courage to vote aye or no, but, she raised her son John, who preached the Gospel and translated religious literature in AmoyvChina, for more than forty years. Was not that a better thing to do’—Dr. Tabnage in Christian Herald. The Churches. Standard. The church must not expect to be made up of unfallen- and sinless saints. Rather it is a place of refuge and safety and activity for repentant sinners*. But there is great need that the repentance be- of such a character as to satisfy the church, and all right minded men in the community. It wilt never do for thechurch to. have- a lower standard than the community outside, than the board of trad©, than a reputable; club.— National Baptist. WaidifulneM Over Ourse!5*«s.. A little watchfulness over ourselves, ■will save us a great deal of watchfulness over others and will- permit the-kindliest off religions to dfop her inconvenient and unseemly talk, of camity and strife, cuirasses and breastj/lateg, battles and’ exterminations. To. produce as much happiness as we can and to prevent as. much misery is the proper aim and end of true morality and true religion. Orly give things their right direction; there is room, do but place and train them well, —Epictetus,
