London's "Drift" Children.
(Golden Rule.)
A few months ago, ia Ragland, we met a
bright,. energetic, wiry American, Mr. C. L.
Boyer, who ia known as "our Americau
cousin," and who is doing an immense
liniment of good for the boys and girls in the
East Ed of London. At the hurried cloite
of the meeting we lied time only for a shake
of the head and a "God bless you," but we
believe heartily in Mr. Boyer' a missioa: and
methods. Here is the pictureaque wey in
which a felluw-worker tette of both. The
werk is carried au -under the auspices of the
- Ragged Schoel Heim', of which Queen Vic-
toria is the "petrol'," lind the Earl of Aber-
deen the President. .
aolie, Charlie, where might you be go-
ing? Now, don't be afradd ; I rem not- the
School 'Board officer '!" The spe.a.ker wee a
short, wiry raa-i, With A Yankee -cut beard,
aud with that ." beaming" expression which
at once attracts the child and wies the confi-
dence of the youth.
"1 aint goiag nowheres," replied the lad.
The little fellow was dirty. ragged, shoetess,
and bare headed. He could h.erdly be con-
sidered eligible for a children's home, -of
which, thank. Gird, there are so many, -for
the boy's pareats were living, and his father
was earning what might be called good
wages. But -the same •s Id story -drink
had wrecked the home; sepped the energy
from those wile ruled therein; and sown
seeds of untold misery, which but for the in-
terposition of Providence must bean fruit in
time to came.
" Would you like to come with me into
the perk ?"
Yes."
"What is your name ?"
Johrsen." The mime is at
once registered ha a smell memorandum
boele,
"And where do you live, Willie ?"
"Number 5.1 L street." The address
ia written against the boy's name.
"Is your father living ?"
yes.”
"And your mother?"
" Yes." Tinse perticulars are also en-
tered.
"Rave yoa any brothers and sister a ?"
" Yea, Johnny and Tommy and Sedly and
Margie."
These names, with the respective ages, are
all registered, together with the names of
the other obildren lodging in Willie Johnson's
houae.
Meentime, half a dozen other boys have
gathered around the lacl and his friend, and
the name particolara are elicited from each,
andduty entered. The leds then scamper
away in different directions to obtain
mother'a conseut to "go with the gentleman
into the park," returning with ether boys -
and girls; for the invitation had been ex-
tended to several lassi,s who had made
their appeerance. And in a very short time
sixty or severity boys and girls might have
been seen merobing along the busy street,
each child being decorated with a bit of
scarlet ribbon, the "captains " (for eome
have been alreedy appoiated to the office of
captain, to maintain order) wearing a blue
saah with a white edging.
It so happens that the gay proceasion has
to pass the house where their stranger-
friendlives. He cries " Halt !" when all
stand still, add in a minute or two their
leader re appears -with some glaring blamer's,
besting mettoes, euch as :-
: JESUS LOVES THE :
: cenennete. :
:WE WANT BREAD:
: NOT BEER. :
The march is resemed ; the park is reach-
ed, ---and what a boon is Victoria Park to
East -Enders 1 -the captains are made re-
sponsible for the barriers, an honor which is
much appreciated by the poor lade, for they
were never intrusted with such fine things
before.
Their friend then takes a whistle from his
pooket, tied with it makes a seued,--well,
it is a mystery to me where that wbistde
could have come from ; I cannot describe
the noise which it is cepable of producing,
but it is a shrill, discordant sound, which
seems to chiral the young folk, and like a
magnet draws them into a groap around the
leader. He eays : "Boys and girls, I guese
some of yon are hungry. I have some bis-
cuits in this baa, and after yen have snug a
horn, which fwill tech, I will pass the
biscuits round "
The lines are committed to memory, and
admirably eeng. Why. the poor little
dears never had art opportunity of display-
ing their vecel pewee,' to such advantsge
The b'souita and the sweets are handed
round, and thoroughly enjoyed by the tat-
tered children, to whom euch things are
real luxuries.
Then a Scripture text ie learned by heart,
a few genies ere indulged in, another chorus
is sung, and the precesaien is farmed for the
return home. The Starting pint is reaehed,
the chormas ere eung again, the text is re-
peated, the decora done -riaboes, sashes and
beaners-are collected. and each child, after
a kind, warm :shake of the hand, runs brut-
ily home to reltte th.e experieects of one of
the happ:eat hnurs ie his life.
In this manner Mr. C. L. Boyer -for this
is the gentleman ef whom a, am'newhat rug-
ged deseriptiou is given in the opening pare-
graph-crentnenced his "Drift Childrecea
Masion" in Id tst London towards the end of
the :ear 1888.
I became anqueinted with Mr. Boyer s000
after his arrived in England, end hsve had
Twiny opportueities of obeerving his move- -
merits, b rth in pub'ic and private life ; and,
after having carefully studied the man and
his work, I inn fully conviuced that he is a •
thorough Chrietien gentleman, an earnest,
unassaming werker for Christ, heartily de-
voted to the service of his Master.
From the cemmencernent of the " Drift
Children's Missiou " work it has not been
Mr. Boyer's wish tn erect riew halls, but to
gather the " Drift," or neglected children,
for recreation and religious instruction, into
the mission halls and schools already in ex -
ilia nee.
Mr. Boyer is now known to mere than 20,-
000 children in the East Feld of London ; he
has paid over G0,000 visits or cells upon these
boys and girds at their homes, in many
cases reaching the parents, who never attend
e p!aie of norship, and inviting them to a
-Owe! eervice. There. have been upwards
of 295 special mectinge fer the children,
with a total etterelance of over 6&,000.
A noble werk this. May this " American -
Cousin " come back to his native heath -some
day and sena a similar movement among
the alums of our own greet cities.

Agricultural Notes.
MANAGING A Cow. -How to manage the
cow in her stall is orte of the difficulties as
great as that of feeding. Urderis great care
is taken, a cow is liable to void her drop-
pings where she will eorne in contact with
them, when taking her rest. Stanchions
are but pertial remedies, and to resort to an
extreme ia to r‘iiust) discomfort to the animal.
Deapite all the precautions that may be
taken, a portion of the filth dries on the
hide of the cew, and also on the udder. I
lne necessity of washing the udder and a
teats with learnt s ap and water, rinsing
with clear water and wiping with a clean
towel should he apparent to all, yet this
precaution eeldom practised, and disease f
goes lute the milk, the strainer being no
pretsetion.
How HE Does, IT. -It is said that the 1
quality of the butter fixes the price. This
may be so in some cases but it its a difficult r
matter for the common cases,
to get an extra
price for a lot af butter that may be a little
above his average in quality. The reputa-
tion that he pessesses goes a long way in
settlieg the price. A certain farmer eends
butter to Chicago and gets several cents i
a pound more for it that another could get
in marketing the same butter, allibecause he
has suoceeded in making a reputation.
How SUPERPHOSPHATE Is MADE. _or-
dinary superphosphate ii made byldiaeolving
100 pounds of bone witli 40 pouuis of cheap
sulphuric acid (oil of \Aron), Phe bones
will then be converted beto sulph te of lime
(plaster) and the phoephoric a id of the
bones set free, being then in a so uo.ble con-
dition. The dissolved bones als. contain a
fair proportion of nitrogen. Wi h the ad-
dition of potash to super phosphate a fertil-
izer can be made which pill be suitable for
nearly ail kinds of crops.I
KNOWLEDGE GIVES OWER. -The ignor-
ant man is always at a great disaivantage
and seldom makes a sue ess of anything in
this age of the world. his applies not only
to buying goods btit to a 1 the affairs of life.

cumstances which infiue4ice it.
Within Six Inch s of' Heaven.
In a thriving town in Central New York,
there once lived a poor cripple, wholly with-
out lower limbs, and pitiably deformed
from rheumatism and Olrer acute diseases.
He supported himself and family by dealing
in nuts, fruits and coefentionery. Pity for
his misfortune induced the town authorities
to grant him permission to erect a small
stand on the main street, provided it could
'be done without tresparieing upon the side-
walk reserved for pedestrians, A desirable
location was soon found, with ample space
for -the stand, if a wealthy widow, whose
residence and extensive grounds stood near,
would consent to allow the foundations of
the little building to rest just six inches on
her land. The cripple called to secure the
desired permisaion. To his surprise she
flatly refused.
"But, madam,' lie urged, "this is almost
a matter of lifeund death with me. At no
other point on the street is the lookout so
promising. Yonr grounds are ample, and I
ask but six inches."
My grounds are my own. Neither you
nor any other person can trespass a single.
inch."
"Very well, madam," said the cripple,
"I have made my plea. I have been to -day
within six inches of securing what certainly
promised to be a means of support. Be-
ware, lest sometime you leek just six inches
of Heaven."
To be wanting in charity is surely want-
ing in one cf the most important requisites
of Heaven.. -Edward Fester Temple in

Five Short Rules for Young
Christians.
As Brownlow North lay on his cleeth-bed
he enjoyed, according to his own confession,
"perfect peace." To a by-stender he said:
You are young, in• goad health, and with
the prospect of lining in the army; I am dy-
ine, but if the Bible is true, and I know it
is, I would not change places with you for
all the world." Mr. North wrote the practi-
cal counsels which follow :
1. Never neglect daily private) prayer;
and when you pray., remember that God is
present, and that he hears your prayers. -
Hebrews ix. 6,'
2. Never neglect daily private Bible -read-
ing and when you read, remember that God
is speaking to you, and that we are to speak
and act upon what he saya. I believe that
all back -sliding begins with the neglect of
thee two rules. -John v. 39.
3. Never let a day pass without trying to
do something for Jesus. Every night reflect
on what Jesus has done for you, and then
ask yourself, What am I doing for him ?-
Matthew v. 13-16e
4. If ever you are in dou-bt as to a thing
being right or wrong, go to your room and
kneel down and ask God',' blessing upon it.
-Colossians iii. 17. If You cannot do this,
it is wrong. -Romana xiv. 23.
5. Never take your I Christianity from
Christiana or argue 'alit, because such
people do so and so, therefore you may. -
2 Corinthians x. 12. You are to ask your-
self, How would Christ act in my place?
and strive to follow bine-I-John x. 27.
The Famous De th Valley of
Califor ia.
The meat famous part f the Great Ameri-
can Desert is Death Valley, in California.
There is on the globe no other spot more
forbidding, more desolat , more deadly. It
is a concentration of th horrcra of that
whole hideous area; d it has a bitter
history.
One of the most interesting and graphic
stories I ever listened to vaa that related to
me, several years ago, ly one of the sur-
vivors of the famous Dei th Valley party of
1849 -the Rev. J. W. Bri r, an aged Metho-
dist clergyman now Heil:1,4 in California. A
party of five hundred emigrants started on
the last day of September, 1849, from the
eouthern end of Utah to erose the desert to
the they new mines ofCalifornias There
were one hundred and five canvas -topped -
wagons drawn by sturdy 'oxen, beeide whieh
trudged the shaggy men, rifle in hand,
while under the canvas awnings rode the
se omen and children. IG a short time there
was division of opinion ris to the proper
route across the pathleile waste in front;
and next day five wagon i and their people
went east to reach Santa Fe (whence there
were dim Mexican trailti to Los Angelos),
and the refit plunged boldly into the desert.
The pert), which want qy way of Santa Fe
reached California in December after vast
sufferings.- The larger coinpany travelled in
comfort for a few days Until they reached
about where Pioche Boit, is. Then they
entered the Land of Thirst; and for more
thau three months wand4red lost in that
realm of horror. It was almost impossible
to get wagons through a country furrowed
with canons; so they sodn abandoned their
vehicles, packing what th'e3r could upon the
backs of the oxen. The struggled on to
glittering lakes, only to find them deadly
poison, or but a mirage on barren sands.
Now and then a wee spring in the mountains
gave them new life. Ooe by one the oxen
dropped, day by clay the sear,ty flour ran
lower. Nine young men who separated
from the rest, being thilwert and uraincurn-
bered with fanillies, reaished Death Valley
ahead of the others, and were lost. Their
bones were found many years later by Gov.
Blaisdell and his f:urveyors, who gave Death
Valley its name.
The valley lies in Ino county, and is
about' orie hundred and filty miles I:ng. In
width it tapers from tree miles at its
southern end to thirty a t -he northern. It
is over two hundred feet below the level of
the Gee. The main Fart 3 crossed it about
the middle where it is bu a few miles wide,
but suffered frightfully tlhere. Day by day
some of their number san upon the burning
ands never to rise. The survivors were too
weak to help the fallen. •
The strongest of the whole party was
tervous, little Mrs. Brice, syho had come to
Colorado an invalid, and who shared with
ler boys of four, seven abd nine years of
ge that indeesribable tramp of nine hun-
dred milt -s. For the last three weeks she
had to lift her athletic Ilusband from the
ground. every morning, and steady him -a
ew moments before ho could sta,nd. She
gave_ help to wasted iants any one of
whom, a few months efore could have
ifted her with one hand.
At last the few au vivore crowd the
ante which shuts off th most dreadful of
deserts from the grder of the world, and
were tenderly nursed f to health at the
hacienda, or ranch hcuse, of a courtly
Spaniard. Mr. Brier hiid lost one hundred
pounds in weight, and the others were thin

Two Eccentric Men.
"Eccentric men and women are not al-
ways nuisances," 60 writs our Irish cor e -
pendent, and illustrates it by the stories of
two eccentric Irishmen, of whom he says :
"One :was the late Rev, Isaac, Nelson, of
Belfast. He was very peculiar, moet lear el,
and an original thinker, but his cast Of
mind was such -that he could never pull in
harness with others, and he seemed a t tal
failure as a minister. The congregation of
which he was pastor for over forty year in
Belfast dwindled away until it was well i h
extinct. Re set in the House of Commo s
a few yeare as a Horne Rule meteber. He
never married, and his money, $20,000, he
been bequeathed by a sister, lately deceo. e
to. build a new chursla in Belfast.
." The other was an old man, John Ca e
who died last summer and left, in his 11
eoine $50,0100 for missions, etc., in a.ddi ir n
todarge sum's given during his life. I i d
often heard pf him and hia oddities, but n it
until after his. death did I know that he d
been a minieter. His name was on the r 11
at:the time of he Union in 1840. Y a s
ago he founded tjho Carey lectureship in t le
two college'', an4 contributed largely to t e
building of flatly churches in India. One f

was at the door of the Mission offices
Belfast, and he had come into : town

man ready for license, wborn he had rile-
cated and Was going to support in India

do much te biers the world, but we w u d
not object tO more of the latter, and if a y
of our readers cheese to foliow a path a ic

herbs. It is remarkably efficacious in all blood dis-
orders, and is now the sovereign remedy with ladies

In my endorstment of Anti -Dandruff I can say
something that I never could before, which is that
this preparation is a perfect remover of Dandrnff not
only in the first stages but even where the plague has
become chronic and has merged itself into a disease.
,Years of experience a:: a hair -dresser, during which
time I have ( xperitnented wida every recommended
preparation, not one has (nor I might say, even all
put together) given the satisfaction that Anti -Dand-
ruff has.
It positively removes Dandruff. It stops falliog of
Pitcher's Castoria.
the hair. It creels the head. It makes an elegant
hair -dressing without leaving a trace of its use. I use
it daily in my haireiressing place, at Balmoral Hotel,
and have yet to find the first cuetomer who was not
pleased with It.
J. T. FONTAINE,
Proprietor barber shop Balmoral Hotel, Montreal,
Province of Quebec.
MONTREAL, August 4th, 1891.
It is a pleasure for no to say good words in favor of
Anti -Dandruff, as its merits cannot be questioned. In
my own case, Dandruff not only made itself known
by appearance iia more than liberal .quantitiee from -
which 1 could not obtain relief, but its continued
preeence and increasing formation caused falling of
the hair. MY barber spoke highly of Anti-Daedruff.
1 used it, and not only has every trace of Dandruff
disappeared but•the falling of the hair has stopped.
Having full faith in the preparation I not only en-
dorse it for the above but further add that ati a fine
dressing for the hair nothing equals it.
