ROSE, Donald Macdonald was busy amaehing his idol, and the veins stood put white upon his wet forehead, and his hairy hands trembled nervouely asi,lcie gripped the violin and bent it, across his nee. The instrument WAS of the old English make.) The wood had got as hard as tempered steel, and Bent back the waves of sound evenly and clearly, impart. ing to thein a body of tone which had charm- ed the ears Of Donald and his auditorium many, many times. No more. Crack, crack- le, snap ; and even as the work of destruc- tion, engineered by a hard knee.an,d frenzied hand, proceeded, the instrument moaned and howled within its -cavern, till with one final gasp and rupture it gave pp the ghost. Even then thetwo halves hung together by the strings, loathe to separate even in death. But Donald Macdonald viewed hie- handi- work with etoic indifference to sentiment, From henceforth he would put music from him. He had lately joined Abe Friend!, and members of the society of Friend's, so he be. nerved, hated mimic, and music had been his idol. Hours upon hours did he figure up and label he wasted. He must make up that lost time. ,He would henceforth devote hie life to sPreadipg the knowledge he had himself entered. into. The work was the Lord's. He was sureof it. And it . started with sacrifice. There lay the fiddle, shape- less, useless, silent, and even as he put his foot upon it as the Lord would put His foot upon the neck of His enemies he felt _him- self a Samson or a Joshua, and ready to do great things. For had he not shattered his idol? It came about this way. Donald Mac, donald had peregiinated from Methoslisin to Presbyterianism, and from Presbyterian- ism to the Episcopal faith; But, at last, in revolt at incense and the seven 'candlesticks, he had turned to the quiet solemnities of Quakerism, where hie weary feet—so he thought—had found rest. The quiet wor- ship, the absence of eniotional praise, the abnegation of mere sentimentality, rested his soul, and forthwith he grasped at the shadow of the subatance he felt was there, and determined to be an evangelist of Quakerism, even as he had been of Method. ism and Presbyterianism aforetime. But there was the violin, and do as he would, the First Day, as be had learned to denote the Sunday, seemed lacking in the Sabbath atmosphere when he did not let himself loose in the aspirations and raptures of the musician. • After he had applied for mem- bership in he society of Friends and had been visited by two worthy men Friends, he had come te look epois his violin as an idol, for they innocently enough questioned him thuswise : "Friend Donald, thou knowest why in our meetings for worehip-we have no sing - ing ?" 1' Verily," replied Donald carefully. " God is worshipped in silence. He reveals himself in the heart; and is worshipped not by the lips, but inspirit." The answer seemed to have satisfied the two Friends, who reported favorably. And Donald Macdonald thereafter was called a Friend, and so he considered himself, for his 'mile was enrolled in the book of Mein - Bu ee was not an idler. He wee dogged and dour, and rugged. The Highland blood - of the Maccionalds coursed' through his gaunt frame, and his communications in tbe meeting lacked the gentleness and even ut- terance that marked those of other Friend. Only upon occasion was Donald soft and winsome, and almost womanly. That was in secret," when, violin below his bearded chin, he played -the sacred melodies he had learned away up in the bills years and years ago. But the memory of that one innocent question haunted him. Was it intended le a shattboine ? Did it imply doubt as to the bona fidee of his faith ? Was it right to subscribe to the faith in part ? And if music • were not a part of won ship, and verily it could not be, for the Friends had none of it, should he not for- sake it utterly ? It weii a hard struggle. One day while he was 'walking the street his attention was caught by. a group of Sal- vation Army 'workers gathered round •a lamp. The captain was in the centre of tte group, and he was playing a violin. Donald stopped to listen, and rubbed ehoulders with another Friend who happened to join the onlookerat that very moment. Both) delayed their steps for awhile. h Then the Friend drew Donald away. ••' Donald," he said, `• thee and me could have no part in leading such a hymn. I do believe, 1 will believe,' may te true, but it may not. I have a ,inind to wain the captain that he may be asking the people to join in singing a falsehood." That decided Donald. He miseed the difficulty the Friend ,.-- experienced. He thought only of his own 'heart's trouble. The captain of the little, group, he thought, was doing what he himself did, in his own_ little cottage, every First Day afternoon. Sure, his duty wasolear. • He must ernash his idol. And so he rushed home, fired with his new•born zeal. And there lay the bite. And Donald steeled hie heart as he surveeed them, by calling to his mind the deeds of the prophets and the eaarifices of Israel, and matching thorn with his own. , Six months elapsed. Donald was con• tinually poking the fire of 'Shill. infant zeal.. His communicatione in meeting were more. rug ed, his actions were more pronounced, and 1 his faith avab, so he seid, etronger every day.- Miles and nines he travelled with dogged determination, to carry the Liner Light to those who knew it not, Village after village he visited, meetings after meetings held. He began to reokon up the conversions he had witnessed. Nothing 011 fora the Children. Give them oil—cod-liver oil. 4's curious to see the result.

But the sen- tence of the doctor is more often set aside or overruled than is that of the judge. In the case of Mrs. Reycraft given below, the doctor sentenced her to about eighteen years of physical punish- ment and misery. But she rebelled against the, sentence, and commenced the use of Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription. In a few weeks she was a well woman. It's a peculiarity of tbe cures ef- fected by the use of Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescrip- tion, that they are generally cures of chronic diseases. A woman suffers with -diseases peculiar to her sex; she -takes medical treatment, gets no better, and has no hope held out to her of improvement.' Then in her discouragement she turns to Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and • finds a. prompt and lasting cure, "Fa . - vorite Prescription" establishes regu- larity, dries unhealthy. drains, heals in- flammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. . . tl Four years ago my health began to fall,/ • writes Mrs,. Nellie M.

Favorite Prescription. Took a tea- spoonful three times a day ; began feeling better right away. Am using my third bottle now, .and feel I am in good health.

Y. mattered but that folk should look inward and discover the Inner Light which would reveal them to themselves, He carried the same evangel to the townships, and then, growing bolder, to the cieies. Still harder and harder he grew. He was called, "rant. er " and " Qaaker," and the " Inner Light man." He gloried in that. Surely G Truth was a dividing word, and persecution was the reward of1 the righteous. Some few of the older Friends, and still more of the younger grew anxious, but their per- suasiveness was lost upon him. " My work is of the Lord," he would re- ply, " and I may not stop for man's opinion. Souls are being destroyed, and they do not know that they have but to turn inward and there fiad more than all the book learn- ing can tell them." But Donald's faith was to be put to a sore test, and he did not know. He had cofteed from his labors for a season, and rested in the cosy parlour where for years his epirit had been sobered and softened by —but that story must be forgotten for that very parlour had' been the temple of his idol and the scene of his soul's triumph. There his idol had been slain. Not a vestige re- mained to remied him of his idolatry. The strings were uePd for hanging some email picturee, but Donald didn't know, for Ellen, hia wife, was of an economical turn of mind, and withal, diecrete. For weeks D 'mild had been " bny in his Master's vineyard," RR he phrased it. Who knowe how much good he had been the in- strument of effeceing ? He did not know weakness. He knew what it Was to wrestle in prayer, but not to be still in prayer. How often had he " wrought hard "to pluck a brand from the burning? How often- had he succeeded ? How often had he failed ? None can tell. Not even Donald. • Such thoughts crossed through his own mind as he sat in the little parlour one after- no,on, in a eilence that was dead, not throb. biug as it used, when, with bow in hand— oh, why recall the idol ? And yet, strangely enough, he could not keep it from his mind. He sought relief in " No cross no crown," No. Still he war troubled. And then there came a knock at the door,, and he was almost glad to be relieved of the burden of his own thoughts when a visitor was an. " Welcome, Friend," he said, exl-ending large hand wide open to his visitor, and using the phraseology he had habitualised his tongue to adopt,. . - " Thanks friend," replied his visitor with a readinees and cordiality that took Donald by etorm. "1—I ---Do I know thee ?" " Possibly not.. I am not a Friend, but I have heard of Donald Macdonald, and owe him a great deal, and I have come to tell him so !" " Is that so ? Well, friend," replied Donald, who was by this time recovering command of his feelings, "1 am glad to see thee. But don't come to give me thanks, friend. 1 only obey my oall, and the work is the Lord's. When did I see thee ?" " See me? Can't say ; but years ago I beard you, and you did me so much good ihanit has followed me even to this day, though at one time it led me into danger." " Tell me about it, for I do not know what you mean, I have obeyed the call wherever it has. led me, and in many villages nave spokeu what he has given me to say." " Ah, but it Was not what you said that refer to. You remember," and here the visitor leaned forward in his chair as if to give special emphasis to hie worde, " you reinerpber years ago that you need to play the violin iinthie room ?" Donald broke out, in a cold sweat. Was this man coming to blame him for hie mis- deeds, and to accuse him of practices foreign to a Friend ? __." Yes, but I—." • " Oh, yes, I know what, you would Pay," said the vieitor, interrupting him, " You are going to say you did not know you had me for a listener, But you nad. I was in lodgings next door, and being a bit of a wild youth at that time, and temptation all around, I have coin° to thank you, Mr. Macdonald, for playing to me, unknowingly though you did it, Sunday after Sunday. I do not know what evil paths my feet might have trod had your music not charmed me and kept me, wellesigh spellbound, hem- ing to it. Thank you. God bless you " And here his visitor roe° and held his hand out to Donald, who was more than half in- clined to be angry and refuse it. tiut, he id shake hands, and when his visitor sub- sided into his chair once more he begnn cast about in his mind how to meet tide neW situation—how to win this etranger away foal the externals of music to the Inner Light which was in him and every man, bot which this particular did not recognize. But his visitor wars not fiaished. " Thatds only half the story," he said, "-though whatfollows could ,not have been but for that. You gave me a love for music, and I could not °nape it. So I epent my even- ings trying to emulate you ; and there again was kept from strayiog by that which yea had stirred within me. I bought an inetrue ment and became' ' in a measure proficient. Then I cast aboutin my own mind how ; could use this gift, which I owe to your in. spiration. Donald wanted to break in here, but he hadn't time. His visitor was °barged with a message, and his speech was unhesitating and his purpose'firm. "Then I joined the Salvation .Army. There also your influeuce followed me, You had played hymn tunes in this parlour of yours and I had, learned them, and was able to play them to the people, and God's bleesing rested upon the work. Praise God. We had quite a noble little band, and street after street we pitched in, and my violin led the praise." And then the incident which had led to meshing his idol flashed into Donald'e memory. "Do -you still um) the violin in the service of God ? asked Donald, in the moment's Pa118e.. es ; and I mean to go on more faith- 4Y fully for having shared my joy with another, and returned thanks to the man who de- serves se many from me. How can I thank you enough?' "You are an Army -captain ?" queried Donald," with his mind back to the group, the playing and the singing. "Yes, Captain Maophail." "1 heard you playing once," said Donald, "andthank God that I did, for it exerted a great influence upon my life. Ib was an influence for which I shall ever thank God, who, in the workings of His grace, revealed within me my true state." It was the captain's turn to be silent. "You were playing, and the people were singing a hymo I know well, with the re. fram— I do believe, I will believe, That Jesus died for me' • That on the crest He shedHis blood • From sin to set nte free, I do believe, I do believe.' And a Friend said to me, Donald,' he said thee and me could have no part in leading such a hymn.' And, do you know, by that simple remark. he showed me myself, and how I had been relying on music too. much, and how if- I were to do God's will, I must abandon everything that came between my soul and God. And sol came homeand put the evil thing from me." Captain Mace -Than stirred, uneasily in his chair. 44 And so I want thee, Friend, to think of what I say, and if I led thee wrong in those early days--" " Oh, but stop !" interposed the captain. "You did not lead me wrong. I remember __the incident perfectly, for that Very after- noon I was led to see the danger that I was in and that I referred to a moment ago._ Someone came to me soon after I had closed that meeting, and asked me if I thought it right to ask the people to sing I do 'be- lieve,' whether they believed or not, and I will believe,' whether they intended to be- lieve or not. I didn't see it till he spoke. Here bad I been leading unbeliever's to take a falsehood upon their lips. Some of those who sang 'I do believe,' didn't believe. That was wrong, and I was wrong in lead- ing them to utter falsehood. From that day to this I have been more careful of my choice of hymns, and never since in a prom- ieious gathering have I led that hymn, nor will I, and I came to thank you for all you did for me, and to tell you how I have avoided the danger that the Quaker pointed out to me." "But, but, didn't the Friend point out that it was wrong to use instrumental music as an aid to worship ?" "No. He said nothing about the instru- ment except that it was not a necessary part of worship, which is Of course, true. All he warned me of was the careless use of such portentous statements, he an act of divine service." Donald's understanding was being en- larged. He, a Friend, who had prided him. self upon being an evangelist Quaker, was learning Quakerism, and that from a cam tain qf the Salvation Army. Truly God's ways are wondrous and past finding out. 1 -broke my instrument," said Donald. "I've two • use one of mine," exclaimed the captain, blistily meeting what bethought was hie companion's need. " No, no ; I don't mean that," said Don- ald. "1 broke my idol when I broke my violin. I had thought to worship :God by plaeing hymns, but it was a mistake, for music is only music, and if the heart doee notpraise God a violin cannot." " Mr. Macdonald," said his companion, as he rose to leave, "1 came to thank you, not for what your heart did for you, but for what your music did for me. I muse be going. My heart is in perpetual music ; that I know. And by God's grace I mean to keep my violin in tune for the sake of other people.. My heart is full, and it must out, one way or another, and were I to break my violin, my service to other people would be injured, and because of stnienalt.,t,, Donald mueic would go out of my own was proud, and would not give in, but he pondered those sayingin his heart during the little furlough that he took from his mission work in the Highlands, and if, on his next journey, he had in his luggage a violin case and a music book, you need not be surprised, for Donald was sincere, he was honest, he was earnest in his wish to serve his Master. Ideas lost their way within his large head for a while, but some of them found their billet at last. The mis- take he made as to the censure passed upon theecareless use of words of a hymn which censure he attributed to the instrument used, came home, and When Donald has time he may discover that he smashed the wrong idol and he may return to hie old love, and once mere, even as a Friend, wear down the sharp edges of his nature by the harmonies of music. In time—who can tell ?—he see that in so doing he may not only benefit' himself but others. For Donald is a musi- cian nnfor all time, though he may be a dumb n THE END. • Tribute to Royalty.

A an Francisco newspaper tel the following story of the pony's presence of mind : One day this' three children ent on a nut. ting expeditipn, and while t ey gathered the nuts, the pony grazed ne r by. Sad. denly, almost beneath the feet of the nut - gatherers, there was an omnio s whir, and they saw with horror a hug rattlesnake coiled ready to strike. The children huddled together, too much frightened to move, but, as the deadly head - went back, there was a quick trample of hoofs, a rush through the busbies, and the ponyitshPPIrefreoah. Wr little sharp h4ofs brought together, he shot up into t e air, SEPTEMBER 13, 1901 ed squarely on the dnake's coil, and was off again before the wicked head could strike. The interruption had released the fright- ened children from the therm, and they ran a short dista,nce away, and etopped to wit- ness the contest. The rattler was wounded, but full of fight, and coiled again, and again the ponp landed on him and got away safely,- This time the snake's body was nearly severed in two places, and the snake was conquered. The pony walked round it, and, apparently satisfied, gave a cheerful whinny and returned to his grazing. • Domestic Hmts. — Tattooing is the latest mothod of secur- ing rosy cheeke. —Abstention from all liquids, including water, is given as the 'Meet antidote for corpulence. — Young men who are good to their fathers and mothers always make the bast husbands.

Fifteen boys started, but they were so ridiculed by the older men of the tribe that twelve of them gave it up. Three won the calves, and the pride of being owners of cattle served as quite an assistance in getting other Indian children to try. After a year twelve boys had won calves, and the agent asked him to plow correfor him, agreeing to give them all the corn they could grow, Ten boys vol- unteered `to grow corn, and they actually raised 3,000 bushele, which was sold and afterwards converted into 35 head of steers.

Wedding Customs, Weddings of all kinds in Scotland long; ago were usually followed by great festivi- ties, which were generally on a scale very extensive and carried to great excess. The - records of kirk sessions during the seven- teenth century show numerous regulations for their restriction. Many of the customs observedwere peculiar to the country or to certain pens of it. In the Highlands, un- til incentury ago, the bride walked round the wedding party at the close of the cere- mony, saluting each with a kiss. A dish was then passed round, in which each de- posited a coin, the amount collected being, given to the bride. Owing to the large num- ber of guest e entertained, vehith kirk -ses- sions did not venture to reduce to less than forty, it was 'hsual for the neighbors to as- sist in providing for them. Landowners gave beef, mutton, and venison; farmer gave poultry and dairy products ; and the minister and the school master lent cooking. utensils.
