And any man whose religion is so suhlime, so thin, so heavenly, that he cannot carry it where it is needed, and speak for home and country there from the heights of conscience, the heights of prayer and the heights of his Christian

Teacbioc Thrift to tbe Youof. The nuralier of minors who be come dejH8itors in the postal banks f countries having the system in Iteration is very large. It is prfnipally for the purtose of encour-
iging children to save that provision is made for stamp deposits. Intireat Hrittain, for instance, the smallest deposit which will be icceived and entered in a pass book
is one shilling, or 24 cents. How-
ver smaller amounts may bo saved
by stamjs. A child with a penny
may buy a stamp and aftix it to a ard. When this card contains 12 stamp it can be deposited as a shilling, and the depositor is entitl
ed to receive a pass book. This arrangement makes the institution
very popular among the children,
and is so convenient as to stimulate them to make use of its advantages.
In addition, the schools are f re
cently made use of as agencies of
the postal bank for the collection of savings. The teachers receive the
dejsisits of the children and turn them over to the postal bank authorities. Belgium is one of the
countries in which the activities of the savings bank are extended to the school room. Out of 7,447 primary schools, inclusive of infant wJl toll and the schools of primary instruction attached to educational
institutions of other classes, there were 4,798 which took part in the
savings bank business. The numof children in those schools possess
