THE TRUE OBJECT OF
S. S. INSTRUCTION.
(or as. 61OILLIO, WALTON.)
Christian people, and espeoially those
who profess to teaoh others, should culti-
vate a cheerful spirit, gloom and Melan-
choly are not the allies of true religion,
Some people are in the habit of saying
that the past was better than the present
days that we live in. I suppose there
may be some truth in the remark, wee -
frilly with reference to those of us who
are getting old, and far removed from the
plane of our nativity, for, be it a weak-
ness, it deserves some praise that we love
the place of our early days.
As our thoughts wander bank over our
childhood days and S. S. days it brings to
our mind a pleasing remembrance. Then
the cares and troubles of the world sat
lightly upou ns ; those hallowed 000I1es
with the Dare and kindness of parents
and S. S. teachers, still cling to the mem-
ory like the music of a better world,
Still, to say that the former days were
better than now is not wise, as the Bible
puts it, rather let us say "The linea have
fallen unto us in pleasant planes, We have
a goodly heritage."
At no time in the history of the world
has Christian life displayed itself fu so
many various activities.
It is only of late years that the church
is beginning to wake up to her duty as a
missionary institution, and the S. S. get-
ting its proper place in relation to the
church, and S. S. teachers learning their
true place in relation to their classes ; it
is also to be hoped that parents are learn-
ing more and more their duty in relation
to their children.
All these instrumentalities work out an
amount of moral and spiritOalgoodgreat-
er than we can calculate. But while we
rejoice in this, still there are evil influen•
ccs at work that are oounteraoting much
of the good work, espeoially in reference
to the teaching of the young. The Anglican Bishop ofJerusalem, in it
There is around us a good deal of in- letter to Friday's Times, gives some facts

consistencies in some who bear the name . into Palestine. About one hundred
of Christ, thousand Jews have entered the Holy
Land during the last few years, and "the
arrival of a vaster host is imminent."
"No one," he goes on, "can possibly fore -
oast the next seven years of Jewish im-
migration." If the Bishop's view of what
is going 001 is oorreot, we are faoe to face
with a faoe that may revolutionize the
polities of the Mediterranean Asia. Al-
ready tba railways are opening up the
country between the coast and Jerusalem
and Damascus, and if a Jewish immigra-
tion on a large scale is added'to this, Sy-
ria may become once moreoneof the most
important places in the East. The idea
of the Jewa again possessing a country is
a very curious one.

Next what are we to teach ? In the
first plane wo should be living examples

observers anti inconsistencies in the life

to teach God's Word, not our word.
There is life in the Word. Some of the
learned critice who are rising up tow•
a•days would fain make us believe that
there are so many errors in the Word it
is not to be depended on. They tell to
look to Christ, but whore are we to find
Christ if not in his own Word ? Am I
not correct in saying that the Good Shep-
herd first finds us in our sins, and we
find Jesus Christ in the promises of Hie
own work.
Jesus Christ and his Redemption are
the great subjeete of the whole of the
Bible ; patriarchs, prophets, types, oero-
monies and history all point to the miming
Messiah, the Desire of all nations. We
must bring before the sobolare the living

weakness and we say, "Who is sufficient
for these things ? Our help must come
from above. There will be no 0000000 in

answer to prayer. If our heavenly

teaching will be but spiritual Gilboa's,
there will be neither dew or rain nor fields

never fails.
What an inestimable privilege S. S.
teachers enjoy in being permitted to bear
a small part in the world wide work of
our blessed Master ? What an honor in
being the means of bringing even one
poor eonl from a state of darkness into
the light of the Glorious Gospel of Jesus
Christ.
Jerusalem and the .Pews.
Is there not more or less a kind of half•
heartedness about us all, in not living
and acting in euoh a way as to justify the
profession we make ? For the past half
of my own life 1 have been continually
aiming at being better and doing better,
but alas how little progress is made.
Our motto should be "More like
Christ 1 More like Christ."
Now, as regards S. S. inatrnotion, its
true or ohief object. No doubt there has
been in the past, and it is possible there
may be some teacbere still, who are
working away, well meaning it may be,
but having no definite aim or object be-
fore them. Such are not likely to prove
a success in the true sense of S. S. work.
Instances will mow to your minds in the
business world of men who had all ma-

life being aimless proved a complete fail.
are. On the other hand many insbanoes
might be mentioned of others who from
small beginnings, but having one object
in view, and with thorough honesty of
purpose have risen to the very pinnacle
of success.
And so the S. S. teaohers, who would
seek euceess in their work, must be
thoroughly in earnest, honest in purpose,
having the one chief objeoteonetantly be•
fore them and bonding all their energies
to the attainment of that object.
The question is the true or ohief object
of instruction. To my mind it is, as it
should be, a co-operating with the parents
in relation to what the children have
been taught, or should have been taught
at home.

precept and example through all the days

PATAGONIAN BABIES.
The dispensatory of Patagonia knows
but two remedies for the diseases of child-
ren—animal eking and common yellow
clay—both to be used at the same time,
whether the disease be in the bead or feet
of the little sufferer.
On being called to see a sick child, the
Patagonian doctor takes with him a tight
skin bag, opened at the larger end. Clay
is plentiful everywhere. While some
member of the family makes a think bat-
ter of this yellow earth, the medicine m10n
sits staring at the sink child, or else
shakes a painted rattle in an idiotic fash-
ion before the little one's faoe.
When the plaster of clay 29 ready the
child is emeared from head to foot with
it, and then slipped feet first into the bag
before mentioned. Should the child cease
crying before this proceeding lute been
carried out, it is thought to be a bad
0ign ; an omen that the devil is still lurk•
ing in the child, but is keeping quiet for
fear of punishment.
On the other hand, should the child be•
comp calm ao he is being Nagged, the pa-
rents and medicine man think that the
prince of darkness has left the body in

event of this last named contingonoyarie-
ing, the skin bag is immediately closed
and tied. The dootor then opens another,

get the devil to jump into the bag after

A NEIN COLLECTING (110,1111.
People get anions fads. I met a man
from Maine who had travelled all over
the world. He had not made a collection
of spoons, stamps, autographs, photo.
graphs, nor any of the things that are
usually oollected by travellers. He had
digressed from the beaten paths and
started a new fled, which seems as soma.
ble as at least the postage stamp craze.
Ire has a coileotion of buttons, hundreds
of them, of all sorts, shapes and designs.
Buttons from pollee, firemen, coustabui•
ary, and soldiery of all countries, cities,
towns, as well as buttons from the clothes
of f1020oue men. Each button has a his.
tory, and a long one, too, as told by the
Yankee, so I did not wait to hear much
about them. But he had taken the but.
ton, surely. It may not be long until the
button pranks may become prevalent, and
the great men of the land will not be
bothered any more by requests for auto-
graphs, but it will be :—"Will you kindly
Bend me a button from one of your suits?"
The prospect of the statesmen of these
great United States having to resort to
hooks and eye0 in self. defence after hav-
ing been deprived of all their buttons to
appease the demands of this coming army
of cranks luny cause some little joy in
the hearts of those who have been wear•
ily watching triumphant tomfoolery in
Congress. The predicaments which this
new craze might cense are endless. We
might imagine an over -obliging oolelr'm
y
being foroed to keep to his room by
thoughtlessly gratifying those who flatter.
ed his vanity by the asking. No matter
how the craze may affect the victims, it
is sure to boom the button industry.
