A Portland, Oregon, oorreepandent for the Interior vouohee for the truth of the following incident, showing how ready O.,d is to hear and answer prayer. The story is one of much pathos, and is nar- 0 rated by the physician himself, as fol- lows:—. "Let me tell ,v-ou of an experience of • mine that taught me the forgiving power of Con's love more than any one thing in toy life. This was before I gave my heart to Christ, while I was still In the darkness of the shadows of the moan - onus teat I had crested of skepticism ' and a.ibelief, One Sunday evening I was sitt.ul; to my office, listening to the °hurter bells ringing for evening eervtoe, and studying over a sad case I was then atte-moatg, It was a young woman, an inmate of one of those houses that curse this city; she was dying with typhoid fever. Dissipation and disease had done their work, and left no hope. "A rap at my door, and word that 'Nellie was worse.' In a few moments I was at her bedside, almost in the shadow of one of our city churches. With a sign of recognition a poor little hand was held out and laid in mine. 'Doctor, oan't you save me?' Dame from the thin lips. Kindly as 1 oould, I told her there was no help for her on earth; her hope must be in the world to oome; "Through the open windows, home upon the soft air of autumn, came the music of the organ of the ehuroh close by. Soon the singing of a hymn familiar to childhood, caught her ear, and, as ebe Hstened, the tears flowed down her cheeks, and at last in the weeny of despair she orted, 'Oh, my God, my God, 11 I were only h little girl with my mamma again.' It- was the wall of a broken heart. I talked earnestly with her, asking that I might send for a clergyman to talk wth her and pray for her. 'No, no,' she said, 'please don't leave me, no one can do me any good but you, doctor' (this bime the request came unhesitatiogfy) 'you pray for me. Please pray that (God will forgive all my sine. He will hear Ione dell Him how sorry I'am, and to please forgive poor, poor Nellie.' "How could I pray, myself a sinner? but a power like the weight of a thous- and worlds bore me to my knees, and I asked Clod to forgive this poor dying girl. Prayer brought peaoe to her heart, while it added to the burden of my own. A few moments quiet, then I saw the delirium of the fever returning., In her wandering I caught the words, 'Mamma, kiss little Nellie.' I thanked God that even 111 delirium Nellie was with her alumina again', in their quiet, happy country home. No tempter had entered there; the sunshine ohased the shadows ncroes the floor; througb the open win- dow tee gentle breeze brought stories of rippling brooks, of buttercups and daisirq. of singing birds, of 000l shadows beneath the forest trees, "Another change. -1 saw the end was near. rhe lips moved, and I hent for- ward t, hear the thin lips repeat:— 'Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, • i pray the 'Lord my soul to take. 'Please, God, bless dear papa and mainrun and little Nellie.' "Quiet again. I could almost hear the rustllne of the angels wings as they hov- ered ahnut that bed. A gentle sigh, a loosening of the clasp that held my hand, and gontly as the dews fall upon the billRide, her spirit was borne to its ly1 akar. "I returned to my office, but not to rest. 'Abe power that brought peace to Nellie, brought trunble to my soul, and only through prayer in my own silent room did I see the first glimmer of light that grows brighter to me every day. It b: ems a long distance off, but with the help of God I hope to draw nearer and nearer until all the shadows are gone 'and 1 non see my way to a life, bright and cigar in the home of God. It our Father in Heaven is so willing to hear the prayer of one poor sinner for another, how much more the prayer of His obe,llunt and trusting child for the sin- norl"—The Sentinel, London. Eng. Some Beresford Stories. A laborer onoe wrote to Lord Charles Beresford saying that his wife had just bad twins—a boy and a girl—and he wanted to call one "Lord Charles Beres- ford Brown" and the other "Princess of Wales Brown." Lord Charles gave his permission, and obtained that of the Princess. Four months later the man wrote again: "I am happy to inform you that 'Lord Charles Beresford Brown' le well and strong, but that 'Princess of Wales Brown' died this morning." Lord Charles to a man of few words, and those very much to the point. Speaking in the House of Commons one day, in reference to the Arab slave deal- ers, he said, with great emphasis • "Mr. Speaker, we ought to catch these men, give 'em a fair trial and then hang 'em." Cnounventlonai Lord Charles has al- ways been. Reeelving an invitation to dinner at Marlborough House one even- ing, he replied by wire: -- "Sorry can't oome. Lie follows by post."—Strand Magaklne.
