“Why don't you try a standing posi-

I will not rehearse the familiar story of
the fast young man of the parable, Yon

know what a bard time he had. And you
remember how, after that season of vaga-
bondage and prodigality, ne resolvad to po
and weap out his sorrows on the bosom of
parental forgiveness, Well, there is great ex-
citement one day in front of the door of the
old farmhouse, The servants come rushing
up and sav: “What's the matter? What is
tho matter?” But before they quite arrive the
old man ories out, **Put a ring on his hand

is not an unmeaniog thing when I tell vou
that when Christ receives a soul into His
keeping He puts on it a marriage ring! He
endows you from that moment with all His
wealth. You are one—Christ and the soul
one in sympathy, ove in affection, one in
hope.
ore is no power on earth or hell to effeet
a divoreement after Christ and the soni are

and sent them adrift from the palace gate,

that is true forever. Having loved you ones,
He loves you to the end. Did they not try

religion.” Bbe said: “I can't give up my
religion," And so they took her down to
the beach of the sea, and they drove in a
i stake nt low water mark, and they fastened
i her to it, expecting tht as the tide came up
her faith would fall, The tide began to rise,
| and came up higher and higher, and to the
; Zirdle, and to the lip, and in the last mo-
ment, just as the wave wax washing
soul into glory, she shouted the praises of
Jesus,
On, no, you eannot separate a soul from
Christ! It is an everlasting marriage, Bat.
i tle and storms and darkness cannot do it, Is
it too much exaltation for a man, who is but
dust and ashes like myself, to ery out this
moment, “I am persunded that neither height
nor depth nor principalities nor powers, nor
things present, nor things to ¢ ne, nor any
other ereature, shall sevarate me from the
love of God, which is in Cobrist Jesus, my
Lord?" Glory be to God that when Christ
and the soul are married they ar« bound by
a chain--a golden chain —if 1 might say so

I go a step farther, end tell you that when
Christ receives u soul into His love, Ho puts
on him the ring of festivity, You know that
it has been the custom in all anges to bestow
rings on very happy occasions, There is
nothing more appropriate for a birthday gift
than a ring, You delight to bestow such a
gift upon your children at such a time, It

Drydocked on an loeberg.
The strange experience of being dry-
docked on an leeberg is told by Capt
Chester, of a Pacific fishing
schooner. He says that he made fast
to a big berg which was stranded off
the coast of Alaska for the purpose of
replenishing his stock of Ice, and after
getting some thirty tons of it on board,
the berg sulldenly careened over to wae
side opposite that en which the schoon
er was made fast, and Hfted her high
and dry out of water, held fast
groove, The men took to the boats and
went to a safe distance to watch the
proceedings. The berg gradually ser
tled more and more, fting the schoon
er higher and higher, until her anchor
cable caught the strain. Then,
end of the went up, the
held and pulled the schooner off
first and unharmed. The rest of
was loaded by boats, and
