And I said, a basket of Simmer fruit,"-Am,os vile. 2, A sLout-chested, swarthy -limbed, brave -hearted man was called out to rebuke Israel. Ills name was 'Amos. Ie bad been brought up amid sheep and cattle, and in addition to his oc- cupation as herdsman, be had the busi- ness of gathering sycamore -fruit -a very difficult business, because, if the fruit were not properly ripened, lend just before its maturing it were not punctured with tbe teeth or an Iron comb, then the fruit would be bitter and thoroughly unpalatable. Ilaving uta lived in the oountr when always 3 Y, Aenoe comes t0 wriite Or to speak, lois allusions are rural -full of thresbing- floor, unci sheaf -laden carts, and grass- hoppers, and mowings, and orchards, and vineyards, and, in my text: "a bas- ket of sunemer £runt." Just what kind of fruit this was 1 do not know, wheth- er sycamore -fruit, or pomegranat- es, figs; but I do know that God meant for Israel, andmeans 'to -night for us the troth that spiritual blessing, like summer fruit, must be used immedi- ately, or it will perish, Many of you remember, a few yeara ago, when the peach crop suddenly ripened, and all Lhe rad .trains and seeumers coming to our, city were lad- ened with the delicious product. The fruit was dead ripe, and not able to wait until the glutted markets were cleared, and so there were hundreds of tb;uusands of dollars' worth of the fruit .thrown ince the streets, and into the rivers, tend carted back again to enrich the soil. G the perishable na- ture of summer !rule. It is so much like our spiritual blessings, which must be used immediately, or never used at all. , To -night, instead of hav- ing you wandering around as through the stalls of an vesr•'icultnral fair, I would bare you, with profound and agitated feelings of soul, look upon this/text as depicting your kat Chance for heaven, tis it is all suggestively: L,'t forth. "Behold a basket of sum - set a fruit." • \Vas this statement of the text the blundering comparison of a man not used to literary composition?. Do you ;tiling the analogy will hold out? Ie fifteen minutes/ from the first ennoune„ eneani, •01 the good newts, the Mateo was emptied of all its guests. 0 ye wile are seated at the banquet of 1118 world, or whirling Ln lits gaieties; anti frivolities, if tonight you could hear the sweet atr'a1ne of Live Gospel Lj'umpot arin0011e- ing Christ's victory over sin, and death, and heel,you would rtr811 forth, glad the eternal deliverance, The Water- loo against 8111 bile leen 1011g11t, and .out' COm,nlander-imehief hath won 11111 day'. u, 1110 juy of ibis sehvation l I do 1(01 cure what, nlelapllor, what euwn- ,1fltl38un you have; bring It to the that 1 rimy use it, Amos ehudl bring one 81(111le, .Isaiah another, Davict anekber, John another, Beautiful with pa 1.1100.

Ev , ery day has its bluster of blessings and , its fruiLy branches of opportunities. But how soon they are gone! Where , is 1578? 1870? 18003 1850? Gone as tboroughly as Lhe fruit which dropped. from the trees and rotted lost Aug use. Every year may have its charact- 1 eristic, In une the ivaa' broke out; in ; another the 10u0815 made terrible ray -j ages; in another the yellow fever reg-' ed; but I care not 'wheat be the charaet- eristioo, tbey are all gone, save one. Of existence, only one is left. Aye, Len menthe of that is 'gone, or nearly gone, and the tongue in the clock of the months will soon strike twelve, and' then this year will be as dead as all its predecessors. In your ldbrary„ you put the hisLoricel volumes side by side, 1 volume first, volume second, volume third, volume fourth; and 1110 history of the past ie made up of six thousand volumes three hundred. and .5151y -five, pages in each of the eoiu,n1ey, and in the last day, at one flash, you will read , all of them. Time, how swiftly it goes 1 Gray hairs are here and there upon you,' and some of you know it not. The "crow's-foot" is coming nearer up to- wards 111e corner of the eye. You stoop more than you used to do. You have been discussing as to the propriety ofj w•oarieg glasses. You are going from the thirties into the forties, and from the forties into tbe fifties, and from the fifties into the sixties, and from the sixties into the seventies. The colour is going out of the "basket of summer'. fruit." The eurcuLio of trouble hath left the mark of its sting. The work of decay hats begun, and the full basket of human lite will soon bo emptied into the trench of the grave. When 1 first became anxious about my stout, there was a soliloquy I read in Doh•. Pike's "Address to the Unsaved." It was a soliloquy on this very subject, It re- presented a man dying; and as he was delete, the clock struck. As the clock struck, the man wus startled, and be cried out: "0 time, it is fit that thou shouldsl strike thy murderer to the heart. How are thou gone for ever? A ntneth 1 0 for a week! I ask not for a. year, thoukh an age were too short for the work 1 have to do. Re- morse for the past throws my thoughts on the future Worse dread of the fu- ture throws my thought on the past.

You sometimes go into et religious association and you say: Is- n't this beautiful. ;How may ripe, re- liginns experiences. Why, it is like "a beeket of summer fruit.'" But do you not know, my brother. that all these Christian associations fade away from the soul? Your Christian father and mother, who have been holding bene- ficent influences over emu, do you not realize they are going+ away from you? 1)o you not notice that they do Dot get over sickness as soon as they used Lo? Are yon not aware of the fact that they do not get over n, told as quickly as once? The faottis that they have made more prayers for you than they will ever make again. They have pn51101 the last mile -stone on the road loon. and if you are going to get uny benefit from that "basket of .summer fruit," get it now, 01' get it never. Some of you do not know what it is to eland and look' .510wn'upon the stili an<l., rigid features of a Christian father or a Christian mother. I too, In five minutes you will think of all the unkind words you ever said to them. You. May COVe1' up the coffins n•ith wreaths, and crosses, and crowns; but you cannot make anything atteaa- t.ire out of it. It is teouWe, and no- thing but tro011.h:. for those who sit and sigh 'with the cons0io0alness that these dear lips will never pray for you again, arid tla038 lips will never sympathize with you again. When yeti stoop down and kiss for the last time the wrinkled brow just before tiler 1111 is screwed on, you will think of what I tell you to- night. 0, if father and mother bo still alive With their Christian influences, cherish them while you may. Take their exttmple. lie profiteii by their prayers. They are ripe for heavou and cannot stay. The "basket of summer fruit" will soon bo gone. So also ibis, my friends, with all God's offers of mercy end salvation. Are you toeniglxt under the infatuation that those privileges are going to bo rnntin tied ? O no. Every opportunity of salvation seems to be, restless until it gets uway from ug. Going away, the sermons; going 11W117, the songs; go- ing away, the strivings ,of God's Eter- nal Spirit. The fruits of immortal life, fail' and lu(010als, are no sooner set be- fore the soar than they disappear.

They Sloth in the tarsi, place, mean health. God every summer (lootol's the ailments of the world by the orchards and groves. The falling of the orchards re a license to all kinds of diseases, and plenty of fruit ordinarily means im- mewed sanitary condition. So this Gospel means health. IL makes 0 man :nighty for work, end staling for con- test. It euree spiritual ailments. It laolps the soul that is decrapid, bound on in the road to heaven. It is ju8011- 051101100. It i8 o0nvadescenue, 11 kind- les the eyes with brillfau1 ariLic po- tions. It thrills the soul with glories to come. 11 is not a weak sentimenta- lity. It helped Paul to stand un - blanched on the deck of the founder- ing corn ship, and it helped Luther nail his defiant "Theses" against the door of the electoral college, the thump- ing! of his hammer echoing through all the ages. It bus helped Len thousand souls to spring through flood and fire to glories immortal. 0, It is a nntex- thy Gospel Mighty in itself it makes men mighty. 1t gives one over -mast- ering power in the day of trouble. The Church cries out to Christ in the Can- ticles: "Comfort me with apples," and eo lo -'night 1 shake down upon you a whole orchard et fruit, while I read .'that the fruits of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, pittance, brotherly kindness, charity. Gather it up from the ground -large, round, luscious, Take it home with you -"a basket of sum- mer cruet," 1 notice that the analogy also is found in the fact that summer fruit is pleasant to the eye and the taste, ee the Gospel, whin a Ivan rightly sees it and tastes it, is very pleasant. Wheth- er Mintier fruit be piled up in the orchard, or on the barn floor, 0r on the platter of the table, the comming- ling of green, and gold, an red, and brown, in the oboek of the fruit, is very fascinating. You know that some eructs deal chiefly with pictures of fruit; and while Oorrogio delights to &retell 0701081 beauty, and .Turner drops the .sea -loam on the canvas, and Cuyp drives up his cattle at evening tido, and Rosa 13onheur catches by the halter the rearing steeds at the "Horse I Fair," end Edwin Landseer whistles u$ the dogs, there are many of our modern painters who are putting all their pow'» ex on fettle pieces, and I do not wonder at it. There Is a beauty ineleseribable. So it is with Ilia Gospel of Christ. It charms the young and the old, the well and lithe sick, the wise and the Ignorant. It has the glitter of the ,'ave, the aroma of flowers, 1110 fnsoislation of music, It; is the luxury of the ages. Religion is not an abbess -i$ nut a cenobite.

Geo. F. Everett, a highly re- spected and well known farmer of Faar Fall, Victoria Co., N. B., makes the following statement : - "Some years ago while working in a barn I lost my balance and fell from a beam badly injuring my back. ;For years I suffered with the injury and at the same time doing all I could to remove it, but in vain. I at last gave up 'hopes and stopped doctoring. \ly back had got so bed that avben leveed stoop Over it was almost impossihie to get straightened up again. When 1•tvould mow with a scythe for some little time without stopping It would pain me so that it seemed as if I could scarcely endure it, and I would lean on the handle of my soythe in order to get ease and straighten up, At other times I would be laid up entirely. Aft- er some years of suffering 1 was advis- ed to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and decided to try one box. Before I had finished it Inter the pills were helping me. I bought six boxes more end the seven boxes completely oared me. It is three years since 1 took them and my bark has not troubled 1110 since. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are an in- valuable medicine and I highly recom- mend them to any person suffering likewise. I consider that if 1 had paid 710 a box for them, they would be a cheap medicine." 1 Rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, partial paralysis, 1alcomotor ataxia, nervous headache, nervous prostra- tion, and diseases depending upon hum- ors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc., all disappear before a fail' treatment with Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, They give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions,.
