In proviâ€" dence. "He doeth according to his will,‘ said Nebuchadnezzar (Dan. 4: 35). ‘He worketh all things after the counsel of his own will/ says Paul (Eph. 1 11). ‘My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure,‘ adds Jehovah (Isa. 46: 10). The divine purpose may be _opâ€" posed by mighty forces. Take, for inâ€" stance, the determination to settle Araâ€" ham‘s descendants in Canaan. Notwithâ€" standing their descent into Egypt and enslavement there, the turning away from them of the royal favor, the inâ€" human edict that their children should be cast into the Nile, the failure of Moses‘ first attempt at their Hberation, the general breaking down of their national spirit, their occupation ~of . Canaan became, in God‘s time, a fact." 2. In grace. The salvation of believers oeeutrs in accordance with the same diâ€" vine purpose and plan. They are called, justified and sanctified . by sovereign grace (2. Thess. 2; 3.) "It is not supâ€" posable that God does not know beâ€" fcrehand what the issues will be oT his own scheme of redeeming grace. Nothing carn prevent the ultimate salvation of Christ‘s peopleâ€"neither the ills nor calâ€" amities of time, nor the falling away of professsed disciples, nor the breaking up | of ecclesiastical institutions." 11. Paul an example. 1t was Paul who wrote, "Be ye followers together with me" (Phil. 3; 17. "Those things which ve have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do" (Phil. 4; 9.) Paul was an example of industry, humilâ€" ity (v. 3), faith (v. 5), intercession, powâ€" er (v. 8), thanksgiving and courage (v. 15.) We‘cham ovhers _ unconsciously when we live truly. A man_of eminâ€" ent piety, unjustly imprisoned, was put . in a cell with a man of ferocious disposiâ€" . tion, who used blasphemous and vile lanâ€" mitage, and violently attacked those who approached him. For days he reviled, tormented and injured _ the Christian who oceupied his cell, but received only kind words, _ gentleness, patience and prayers. One day the monster stood a moment silently _ regarding _. the man whom he had never seen other than genâ€" tle and patient. Then he fell at his feet, \nml with tears begged him to â€"forgive him. 1}I. Paul an overcomer. "He shook off the beast _ into the fire, and felt no harm" (v. 5.) For did not the Lord say to the seventy: "Behold, I give you power to tread on serpents and scorâ€" picns, and over all the power of the eneâ€" my; and nothing shall by any means hurt you" (Luke 10; 19.) Not high winds, nor violent waves, for Jesus will sar to these, "Peace, be still," and there will be "a great calm" (Mark 4; 39) or he will bring you through them all "safe to land" (Acts 27; 44.) Not the devices of men, for God wWill make their . ptots agrinst you "come to naught® (Isa. 8: 10; vs. 30â€"32.) "And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?" (1 et. 3: 13.) A missionâ€" ary in a foreign country, surrounded by the worst of desperadoes, had anm opâ€" portunity to prove _ this. He was Qror.thing from _ the _ Sermonâ€"on the Mount. â€" He .prepared the sermon careâ€" fully, as he had done all the others, and explained its full meaning. At the close of the sermon the heathgn _ gathered about him and demanded, ong /after anâ€" other, his watch, chain, and other difâ€" ferent articles of dress. He let them take what they would. But presently one of the number was conscienceâ€"smitâ€" ten and rebuked the others; and the missionary was permitted to retain his belongings, and was never afterward in the slightest degree molested.â€"A.

Whether it is profitable to plow in fall or not depends on the soil and climate. If the soil is of a firm texture fall planting will do it good. where the winter is severe enough to keep the ground frozen until spring. _ It separâ€" ates the soil and makes it friable. â€" But where the soil is of a tough clay texâ€" ture and the winters are mild, not freezâ€" ing the ground solid for a foot or more in depth, the plowed ground will freez and thaw and run together again and be as firm in the spring as though not plowed. If any good comes from such fall plowing it must be weed destrucâ€" \ tion.

She states her uncle is a strong believer in reincarnation and ne did as stated to test his belief. The nurse also said that at the age of seven years the young man had had a severe attack of meninâ€" gitis, and for twenty years, up to the time of his death, he had not spoken a word, but possessed such a lovely charâ€" acter that he was highly esteemed by all who knew him, and his father believed he would be reincarnated and return to life in a higher position than the lowly one he occupied at the time of his death. His father now firmly believes that such has been the case and feels that his son has been reincarnated. "The family of the murse is greatly excited over the phenomena as _ reâ€" ported by the Mainichi, and if the latter‘s account is a truthful one, it seems to us that its is a matter worthy of the investigation of Japanese sciâ€" entists, and their report would be awaitâ€" ed with great interest.

British ‘ Climbers Fail i The interesting fact has just come out of the wilderness west of Edmonton that a distinguished party of British Alpine climbers have attempted to scale the icy summit of Mount Robson and have failâ€" ced. Two points stand out distinctly in the story of this attempt and this failâ€" ure. The first is that while they failed they felt more than repaid for the long journey just to have seen and to have stood in the presence of this "King of ‘thc Rockies." The party were twentyâ€" four days reaching the _ foot of the ob P n Cl‘ ~Bdmanton. â€"~At John a distinguished party climbers have attempt summit of Mount Rot cd. Two points stand the story of this att« mountain from Edmonton. At JONN Swift‘s homestead on the Upper Athaâ€" basca, August 24th, they met Rev. G. R. PB. Kinney, who had "Cook‘d" them. Kinâ€" ney warned them that they were too "There was a time," said the old inâ€" habitant, "when that piece of proj»rty sold for a song." "Really!" replied the giand opera prima donna. "Mow very expensive.!"â€"Washington Star. 1 . _ _3 fl4amutiame are some 35 10 ; MOUNT ROBSON. E‘\ man‘s good intentions are some times too big for him to earry out. late, but they pushed on. On September Tth they began the ascent. When they had gone within twelve hundred feet of the suminit of this mighty monarch of the hills, whose icy crown sits 13,700 feet above the sea, the famous Swiss guide, Moritz Inderbinen, turned to the man _ following him and whispered hoarsely "Foehn," which is the name of the warm wind _ of Switzerland, which compares with our "Chinook." And, 10, there blew down across the glacier the windé which softens the snow and makes . the going bad. In the Alps the "Foehn" brings not only a thaw, but often an avalanche and sometimes showers of ice. Most of the climbers knew and, better still, they knew Moritz knew and they halted. Even as they talked the storm broke over the crags and the night fell before they could escape the the. glaâ€" cier over which they were travelling. 1t was with great _ difficulty that they made their way back to the timber belt. Speaking of the grandeur of Mount Robson, Mr. Hastings said it was a mag:â€" nificent peak, the northerly face of which was a tremendous precipice. AN OLD CONFIDENCE GAME, (Cor. Philadelphia Record.) A surprising fact is that the member of cither House during the tariff deâ€" bate showed up the hoary old legend that protection is chiefly for the heneâ€" fit of labor, by offering an amendiment to the tariff bill placing a duty on imâ€" migrants. In antebellun times a guod male slave was worth about $1,000, and . female slaves and slave children about. half as much. A 50 per cent. duty is much loss than is imposed toâ€"day on many of the necessaries of life, so that such rates would be quite reasonable. A duty of $500 on each male immigraat and half â€"price for women and children would seem to be moderate. I do not see how iny honest, consistent Protectionâ€" ist could cast a negative vote; but how the confidence men in both Houses would be exposed by such a flank moveâ€" ment !
