that of St Louis and her two or three

The Currant Worm. The Bos

following; We are informed by Dr. E
Worcester, of Waltham, that the cur
rant worm, so destructive to a favorite
truit, may be lullv and almost imme
diately destroyed by the use of caibo-
late of lime. The doctor tried tho
powder in many instances during the
past summer, and found that while it
was fully as effective as hcllcborne, it
was less disagreeable, less costly aud
perfectly safe. The method of using
it is to sprinkle it over the vines as soon
as tho worm makes its appearance-
ringing it well in contact with the
leaves, and soon the insect is destroyed.
It will need but two or three applies
tions, and the work is done. In this
way, fur a few cents, large quantities of
currant bushes may be saved and the
fruit allowed to mature, and no danger
whatever incurred. Neither the foliage
nor the fruit is in any way injured by
the carbolate of lime. It will be well
for our readers to remember this when

A ccrtaiu woman was so adicted
crumbling that it was affirmed oi
she would be sure to oomplain even
alter she got to heaven, -if at nothing
else, that there was nothing left to find
fault with. While there may bo a
reasonable question entertained whether
the grace or giumbliog will still find a

tbat grumblers find ample room and
culture here below.
There are niauy kinds of grumblers,
old and young
Are you conservative? Then Young
America lifts up its horn. You are be
hind the age. Everything and every
body is leaving you in the rear. Spirit
ual prosperity depends on being abreast
of the age, and your raft will be sure t?
be found stuck fast in the mud when
tho freshet is over!
Are you anxious to be astir and to
keep pace with the rapid march ot
thought and of events? Somebody at
your elbow takes off his spectacles and
wiping them, wilh a sigh deplores the
departure of the "good old times,"
mourns that these new-fangled notions
and ways are at such a fearful rate dis
placing "primitive simplicity" (let a
church run in one rut for fifty years, and
at once tne sacred bole is primitive), and
aeciarea tnat you are altogether "too

Does the pastor refuse to become
common gad and attend first to theTFork
of his study and spend only what time
is iett in visitation, and at once some
body is afraid that the church will co to
the dogs, because, forsooth, the pastor
aoes not take enough pains to learn the
hearts and ways of his people. Visita
tion is the grand thing in a pastor. It
doesn t matter how he preaches, but wo
ao want a good pastor.
Is he a man ot socinl gifts, and does
he take pains to leave no room for cen
sure here? There are sure to be a set of
spiritual dyspeptics, dissatisfied with the
nature ot their spiritual meat. They
don't get fed. Their moral stomachs
are in a fearful condition, and it's all
tbe fault of tbe pastor, who fails to
study enough.
Are you a Superintendent? You
blackboard it too much, or too little,
your voice is too loud or too weak. You
are not familiar enough with tbe chil
dren, or you don't kiss the infant schol
ars. You sing too much or don't sing
enough.
Oh, those gnats! how they worry and

Tho recent attention drawn to the
vice of gambling, and tbe "raids" which
have been made by the police will prove
iniost useless, it not iollowea up by a
vigorous, persevering attempt to elevate
public sentiment. Many who do not
gamble themselves look with leniency
pon the "tools) who do, and many who
would not touch a card or buy a "chip,"
invest money in lottery schemes, in bet
ting, in church raffles, or in some kind
f illegitimate business. This shows a
ux public sentiment, aud so long as this
exists it will be easy for profesfional
gamblers to defy the law, and lay traps
ior tne unwary and the covetous.
Kight-thioking on this subject can
not, however, be created by spasmodic
denunciation ot tho vice in general

persistent opposition to every form of
making money without earning it is
the only means of giving lorce to law,

The seed of gambling is covetousness,

grows one of tho most disastrous of

"There was one thing that helped me
very much whilst 1 was preaching to

"What was that?" asked a friend.
"It was the attention of a little girl,

said; she was a great help to me."
"What! can a little child be a great

my little ones, and when you co to

and try to understand what he says, for
he is speaking to you as well as the

Test of Friendship. It is one of
the severest tests of friendship to tell
your friend of his faults. If you are
angry with a man, or hate him, it is not
hard to go to him with words: but so
love a man that you cannot bear to 6ee
the stain of sin upon him, and to speak
painful truths through painful words
that is friendship. But few have such
friends. Our enemies usual teach us
what we are at the point ot the sword.
