the days eff sickness came guddenly and he
was told that he could not get well, he
• said: "Jesus alone can save me. Jesus will
save me. He has saved me. Don't cry,
mamma. I shall go right straight up tit
heaven." And then they gavehim a'gla&:,
of water' to cool his hot lips and he said:

"Mama, I shall take a draft from the '
water of life after awhile, of which if one
drink he shall never get thirsty again. 3
lay myself at Jesus' feet,- and I want hine
to do just what he thinks best to do with
me." In those days "Rest Fotthe Weary"
was a new hymn, and -he had learned it,
and in a perfect ecstasy of soul in his last
hour he cried ont:
'‘In the Christian's home in glory
There remains a land of rest.
There any Saviour'sgone before me .
To fulfill my soul's request.
There is rest for the weary,
There is rent for you.
"Sing, oh, sing, ye heirs of glory,
Shout your triumphs as You go!
Zion's' gates are open for you,
You shall find an entrance through.
There is rest for the weary. ,
"There is rest for you, papa:, there is rest
for .you, mamma." And then putting
his hands over his.heart, he said, "Yes,
there is rest for me." And then, he asked
them to read "`"-e Lord is my Shepherd;
I shall not we --"e maketh • me to lie
down in greenpasta a and leadeth me be-
side Still waters," and he cried out: "0
death, where is thy sting? 0 grave, where
is thy victory?"
Only 10 years old. And then he said,
"Now I wish you would just turn thie
bed so i can look once more on the foliage
and see the sun sot. '"' Ana they turned the
bed. And he said, "I do so wish that JOSUE
would hurry and come and take' me."
They said to him, "Why, are you not will-
ing to await the Lord's time?" "Yes," he
said, "I am; but I would rather Josue
would come and -hurry and take me. " And
so, with apeace indescribable, he passed
away. ••

ing parents, do not inoiirn too biaerly-
over your child. that has gone. -- There are
two kinds of prayers made - at a child's
- sick bed. One prayer the Lordi likes; the
other prayer he does not like. When, a soul
kneels down at a child's sick bed and says:
"0 Lord, spare this little one. He Is very
near to my heart. I don't waist tepart
with him, -but thy will be done—that is
the kind of a prayer the Lord its. There
is another kind of prayer wh ph I have
heard men make in Substance When they
say: "0 Lord, this isn'tright. ; It is hard
th take this child. You have no right tc
teke this child. Spare this child: I can't
give him up, and I won't give him up."
t
The Lord answers that kind te a prayer
-sometimes. The child lives on al d lives on
anal travels off in paths of wie ednesef to
perish. At tho end of every prayer for a
child's life say, "Thy will, 0! Lord, be

The Tbrightest lights that can he kindled

rejoice that heaven. Is gathering up se
much that is attractive. In that far land
we are net strangers. There! are those
there wile speak our name day by day,
and they wonder why so long We tarry. If
I could count up the names ef all thosc
who have gone out from these families in
to the kingdom of heaven, it would take
- me, all day to mention their names. _ A
great multitude before the throne. Yon
loved them once, you love them now, and
ever and anon you think you hear theit
voices calling you upward. Ah, yes, they
have gone out from all these families, and
you want no book to tell you of the dying
' experience of Christian children: You have
.heard it. It has been whispered in
your ear, 0 father, 0 mother, .0 brother,
0 sister. Toward that good land all
Christians are bearing. This snapping of
- heartstrings, this flight of years, this tread
of the heart reminds us that we are pass-
ing away. Under spring blossoms and
through summer harvests and across au-
turnial leaves and through the wintry
snowbanks we are passing on. Oh, rejoice
at it, children of God, rejoice at it! How
we shall gather them up, the loved; and
.the lost! Before we mount our throne, be-
fore we drink of the fountain, before we
strike the harp of our eternal celebration,
-
we will cry out, "Where are our loved and
lost?" And then how we shall gather
them up! Oh, how we shall gather them

In this dark world of sin and pain
Wo only meet to part again, ,
But when we reach the heavenly shore
We there shall meet to part no more.
The hope that we shall see that day
Should chase our present grien. away.
When these short years of pain are past
We'll meet before the throne at last.

Is the Moon Round?
el
We never see but one side of the. moon,
but, judging from the side presented too
view, it is the general opinion that the
moon is at least spherical. Qf late, how-
ever, a new theory is being advanced. As-
tronomers who are carefully studying thel
question say that the lights and shadows
of "our silver sister world" are ineompati-
hie with the old theory of its spherical
shape.—Exchange.

Although we do net pretend to supply "any bicycle made" we still have the agency
in Seaforth for the old reliables, :
THE HYSLOP, THE BRANTFORD, • THE FLEET, • or THE CRES0EN1
And they are the leaders and sellers in all parts of the country this year. Quality will
tell. You cannot go wrong by purchasing either of them, at the right priCe, hut be on
your guard ; we have heard of unscrupulous dealers in some places quoting the price of
high grade wheels that they were not selling, much below their value, in order to create
the impression that the wheels they were actually agents for, were equally cheap. Ws
an old trick and the public are getting onto it, but still, it -catches an unwary customer
occasionally. Avoid disappointment and save money by ordering one of the above high
grade wheels from the only authorized agents in Seaforth.
