But my subject also impresses me
with the fact that when people start to
follow Christ they must not expect
smooth sailing. These disciples got
into the small boats, and I have no
doubt they said: ‘What a beautiful
day this is! What a smooth sea! What
a bright sky this is! How delightful is
in this boat; and

part of the century a revival broke out
in Somerville, N. J., and some people
were very much about it,
They said: “Oh, you are golog to bring
many people into the church at
once;" and they sent down to New
Brunswick to get John Livingston to
stop the revival Well, there was no
better soul in all the world than John
Livingston
the revival, they wanted him
it. He stood in the pulpit on the Sab-
bath, and looked over the solemn audi-
tory, and he said: “This, brethren, is
in reality the work of God; beware how
you try to stop it.” And he was an old
man, leaping heavily on bis staff—a
very old man. And he lifted that staff,
and let it fall very slowly
through, between the fluger and the
thumb, and he said: “Oh, thou impeni-

When the Moon Looked Biue,
"Ones in a blue moon” is a saying
which appears to be founded on fact,
A Scandinavian captain named Salve,
son, in Chinese waters, was fortunate
enough to see a blue moon several
years ago, about the time the atmos
phere was supposed to be impregnated
with the dust of the Krakatoa erup-
tion. The color was like that of a
hedge sparrow's egg-—a pale, rather
