While admitting these., facts, I still.. contend, that the first .few yearsr.of d • child's life have a Momentous influ- ence. •They. are important not :only ..to the child, but to his parents.

' • • ; '.. . The .• • purifying, esatohling and. Christianizing influence Of.:e. little child was once illustrated. by 'cr bra- ther .•minister in tho. following Story:: One day in the fee west, ty stalwai't • miner was returning' to his.- encanip- ment. •when . he foand' a 104 'child, She Was • a . beautiful little girl •of about. five' summers. "Whero. is your *tether and mother, little one?" slak- ed .the miner. "Don't . know,': , said lite baby. "What Are you going to do?" "Well," she answered, nt. the least abaslie‘ "I guess I v1.1 go.' home with you and Wait until'. OM- : ma comes and gets me," • The miner. With A. laugh, picked her up in his Strong arms and started . up the mountain side. • The little girl .in his .• embrace .was not a bit. afraid. She laughed and sang a.nd chattered . •all the Way, When the miner came to camp, he asked the men' what he • would do with her, and they said, ".1,et her stay here .over night, asid ' the Some one Will take her to town in the morning," After supper the little girl suddenly stopped her chat, • tering And said: "Now it is time• for me to go to bed.' Who will undress me'?" That was a tieiv , teak • for • those hard listed workmen. They did not knolitr what to do. At last the man who had found ,,her Said, "Ut- tle one, come here; I will undress you." He got out a Oaten shirt endused it for her nightgown. Ilion. she:• looked - .op In her sweet, inno- Cent way and said: • "No W I must Say my prayers, Who will I say thein to?" This Was a harder pro- position for the wee to solve than the other, At last one miner mild, "Conte, my darling, 'and say. your • prayera to me." When the little ohe knelt, the tears were Welling 'out of the minor's eyes. Ile pushed her oft aS he said,. "No, my little one, I am not good enough for you to say •Your prayers to Me." Another min- er tried H. Dri broke down, At -last the little giti knelt by her butik, When she coml.-minced to prey VIM old prayer— Now I lay the &own to sleep, I pray the Lord tny soul to keep— • and ended up that prayer with the pita that God would bless the good Men who Were looking after lir, • there Was not, a dry eye in that eab- • in. Many of thoee rough, :idolised Men, through that, ChiltVe exarnple, rere 104 to give their hearts to Ged. •Asa riteult of that little glrl'bi Visit 1 these rough tuittere built a church. They brought to that Churl* 4 Min- ister. The minister deciat'ed that in , all his life he never preached to a more impressionable audience than theso rough men, who had been brought into touch with that little ' child prayer. You asisert that that child's gospel influence is the exception? 1 know it is not. I know that a maxi never on earth conies as near to heaven as when, his little baby boy or girl kneels by his bide and in trust end love says a baby's evening prayer.

'Brother, do not tell me that Naasson's. childhood •was waited years. Do not tor e, moment suppose that although you may be au ordinary Man living an ordinary life itt an ordinary home. your little cradle had no gospel sig- nificance in the lives of your Chris- tian parente, Naasson's waived Manhood teach- es that . God provides. for the humb- lest ' Of his children as well as for the greatest. Who was Naa.Seon? lie had a father named Aminadan and a son, 'Salmon, That Is all we know of hie direct .connections, They were •evidently as humble as himself. There was certainly' nothing extra- . ordinary about this man. , History ; makes no mention of Naasson lead- ing a great army. *Among all, the leaders of the Bible there is no re- corded speech *spoken by his lips.. Whether he was in physique tall or • short, , whether be had light hair 01. • . dark, blue eyes or Week,a broad or a narrow chest, -must be all left to conjecture. Dut this fact is certain --whether he Was the humblest indi- vidual whp ever lived or :no, God took care of him,. God fed hina, God clothed him, God saw him grow up to full manhood. Then when bis work, however small, Was done' God . took him to himself. In other words, Naasson was like the most of us, whoare without any particular tal- ent or power Of- leadership. • Yet • God is 'Caring: and feeding and eloth- • ing and housing us, just as- he feeds the bird of the air and elothes the 111of btsheefeleidi ,uran,.' in the '-huMble • walks of life, do you not realize ;that • in Spite of ;yourself you ' are preach,• ' ing, wherever you ,g& the Protecting care of the love of .flod?

Again, Naasson's life impresses mt .with the fact that the greatest of earthly works are aceomplished •by ordirsary people. Here Mid there in the long list of genealogical names which are recordedin the first chap- ter of Matthew there is' a prominent nran, but tour -fifths • of themr-aye, nine -tenths of them—are names au humble as ti at of Naesson's. Thus we find that everywhere the vaSt bulk of the world's work is done by the ordinaries- and not by the extra - ordinaries. Why? •Because there are but fliw' extraordineyles and thou - stands -upon thoulaseds and, millions upon suilliens zerclineries.

When John 8. Sargent, the famous, Portrait painter, studied in the atelier of Carats -Duran in Faris, Isis teacher Showed his toridnetal ter him by Relat- ing in his head in the great celliug of the Luxembourg palace. Even titter he branched out for himself his I:nea- ter often sent for hint to mine over to his studio and pose, bis hands having especially won the subniration of Caro- tins -Duran. The time came, however, whea Sargent could, no longer answer the beck and call .ot his teacher, for be was getting 'work of ids own to do, which would not allow Min to leave his studio at a moment's notice. One day, it is related, Carolus-Duran sent a hur- ry call tor ithn, and when Ise received a note saying that Sargent was compel- led to decline his request owing to preeiting work he was forams. A few days inter a triena, to whom be bad confided his anger at his reettleitrant pupil, asked Lira: "Weil, how is it with Sargent? Utive you made up/ How is he?"• "Ali, no," said the painter, and •heolookecl sad and Ins shoulders went up. "How is it With Sargent? C'est OM!" Auother shrug, "C'est flint It's all aver! 1 nave been to the Luxein- b'ourg. I went end 7 got a ladder, and I painted out Ids bead!" • A Ghost Test. When you think you see a ghost, bow can you tell wbeteer it really is it ghost or not? A. record writer gives the following scientific method.: "We assume that a phrson sees an appari- tion. It may be obJective—i. e., having existence outside the observer's mind— er merely a creature of a, disordered brain, subjective. The seer, while look. Ing at the vision ivith both his eyes, gently depresses one eyeball with his forefinger from outside the top eyelid, so causing a squint. If objective„ whether bogus or not, two outlines of the 'ghost', will be seeu, but one; of • course, if it be subjective. One may • prove this by trial any time with any object, near or far. I mention this be - cantle of the many nervous and brain wearied people who see spooks and to whom it would be better that they ehould know that the trouble is .with. in themselves and so seek a capable cloctctr than coutinue to be haunted, as they believe, by the supernatural."
