"Oh, what a beautiful star, Serene, just
on the verge of the Western horizon ; see
bow it flashes and twinkles, and is all en
circled with such rays of bright light; do
tell the the name of that sparkling star,
my good Serene."
"That beautiful star , is called Venus.
my child, and is the nearest of the primary
planets to the earth we inhabit; it is the
brightest we see in the heavens. One part
of the year it is called the morning, the
other the evening star."

I do not wish to conte back here any more,
but only to leek down upon it--;-thoug v h
expect it would appear Only as a dark slice

"Why do you think so,Pinky ?"
' , Because this world don't shine, the
ground is dark, the deep foresis are dark,
the waters are dark, indall looks dark kut
the sunshine and stars."
..1111y, I am sure the moon, just rising
yonder in the east, does not took dark."
' "Oh no, the moon is bright and beauti
ful, Serene ; it shines with a, white light,
and is much bigger than the istara."
qhere yov are mistaken, Pinky ; the
moon is stunner than the stars, and It is
her nearness to the earth that makes her
appear so -much larger. But the moon,
Pinky, is not bright, it is a dark °Patine
body, liktilhe earth you live upon!'
"La! Serene, how can the. moon le a
dark body when it appear's se very light ?
to me this seems h contradiction."
"Rive you never noticed a looking glass
in a dark room ?"
"I have, freqUently."
"Did it appear yery bright then T"
"No indeed, it did not."
"Well, you have seen when alighted
candle bas been brought: into the dark
room, or placed in a reisition where the
light from the candle would fall upon'the
glass, that the glass would Instantly re-
fleet the light and appear bright."
• "Oh yea,. to bo sure, but itis'the candle
shining on the glass' that-makes it feok
bright ; bitt the moon has no eandle'to
shine upon it, Serene, except all , those lit

"Then I will try to explain, this pho

and she reflects those rays, and oasts them
to the--earth:; ,in the same manner that a
mirror whim held in such a position that.
the sunbeams. may fall upon it, will reflect
or throw back those bright beams, often'
casting them to the opposite side of the
room, or what over , piece it may happen to
be." . .
• .
"And is this the reason the moon ism:di

"NO, the moon is called'secondary be
cause it belongs to the second order of pla
nets and satolites, because it twelfths the
earth, which is a primary, in' her annual
revolutions around the sun. There tire
many other primaries and satelites; of
which you will learn as you pursue the
study of astronomy."

not think as much of her us I used to
when 'I thought she was bright and beau

'Yes, takt),: me,' I. crier!, 'lend, me your

rene, that little auger refilieriliat
could not lend me her wings, and told-me
that I mum. pass the cold river of J or d a n,
which she had to go through, before I
could reach that bright happy home.— '
She showed me - the river-1 thought it
'ins dark, and I WAS afraid to pluuge in it, ,
and the angel said you must tarry yet a
while, little Pinky, till you conquer your
fear, and then I will, come for you again.
The little angel thee spread her bright
pinions-and soared up to heaven. When
the angel was gone out of sight, ,there ap
peared ti man bright and beautiful beyond
anything I had ever conceived, and clothed
in raiment so dazzlingly white, that it
pained my eyes to look upon him ; he i
drew near to my side and said, "Why
are you afraid of the riyablittle Pinky ?'
`,‘l3l:_eause it is dark, mins cold," I an- '
sweind, "and no sun shines thereon ' to I

I turned to behold, and lo when hestretch

and on the other side of the river I saw my
little angel visitor,. who 'seemed waiting
for me,,tti', conutover. T Iteolmly man :then
told me that he was the true. light, l end
would guide me safely through the dark
stream, and be the lamp of my salvation
for soon I must plunge in its dark waters
—but not shine, he would be with rue.—
Now, what is that river, Serene, that -lies
be tween me and that heavenly home ?"
siThat daik river is death, little Pinky,
and Jesus the Saviour, is he who can light
you safe through its dark waters."
~Cold and pale was the sweet face of lit
tle Pinky, as she lay on: the snow white
couch, with her liule, fair hands clasped
over her Motionless breast. Yes, little
Pink; had crossed the deep river, but to
her it was uot dark ; the lamp of salvation
had shown on its waves, and the valley of
the shadow was illumined by its beams.=
She
_glided softly through the billows, and
was received on the shores of fair Caanan
