Lift up your heads, ye cverlasMiig gates, mid let the sheaves come lu! Aauels shout nil through the heavens, and multitudes crime down the bills crying: "Harvest borne! Harvest home!" The Christian singers anil composers ot nil ages will be there to Join in that song. Thomas Hasting will be there. Lowell Mason will be there. Decthovon and Mo zart will be there. They who sounded the cymbals and the trumpets in tlm iinclout temples will be there. The '10,000 harpers that stood nl the ancient de llcatiou will be there. Tho 201) singers that assisted on that day will be there. l'litrlurchs who lived amid thrashing floors, shepherd who watched amid Chal ilenu hills, prophets who walked, Willi long beards und coarse apparel, pronouncing woe against ancient ubcmliiiillons, will meet the more recent murtryrs who went up with leaping oohorts ot fire, uud some will speak ot tho Jesus of whom they prophesied uud others ot the Jesus for Whom they died. Oh, what a song! It came to John upon ratmos. It came to Calvin In tho prison. It dropped to Itldley lu the lire, aud some times that song has come to your car per haps, tor I really do think It sometimes breaks over the battlement of heuven. A Christian woman, thu wife of a minis ter of the Gospel, was dying In the parson, age uenr the old church, where ou .Satur day night the choir used to assemble mid rehearse lor the rollowlng Halibut Ii, and she said: "How strangely sweet the choir rehearses to-night. They have been re hearsing there tor nil hour," "No," suld Homo oue about bur, "the choir Is not re hearsing to-night." "Yes." she said, "I know they nre. I henr them sing. How verysweetly they slug." Now, It wits not it choir of earth that she heard, but the choir ot heaven. I think that Jesus sometimes sots ajar the door ot heaven, mid a passage of that rupture greets our ears. The minstrels of heaven strike such a tremendous strain the wails of jasper ouuiiot bold It. I wonder and this is a question I have been asking inysoir nil the service will you slog that song? Will I slag It? Not unless our slim nre pardoned and we learn now to slug the praise of Christ will wo ever sing It there. The llrst great concert that I ever at tended was lu New York, whoa Julien lu tiie Crystal palace stood before hundreds of singers and hundreds of player upon Instruments.

Like the voice or inany waters, lik the voice of mighty thundering, thoy shall cry: "Worthy Is thu Lamb that wits slain to receive blessing mid riches uud honor und glory uud power, world without tiiul.

"Why, general," said the member, in reproachful tones, "you divided your time with mo." "I knon I did," rejoined the grim old warrior "but I did not divide eternity with you."

It is a most interesting sight to be hold ono of those giant redwoods (all. I'll o process of oultiug is ofl'ecteil through the nse of tho axu nml tho ;aw. All axes nre double-faced, through which much time is eavod iu sharpening. Hometimes the axes iturt the cut o:t both sides of tho trunk aud at plaasa Bliout opposite each other through tuo thick nens of tho true. Ariel.' i'uo chopping lias pene trated to tho depth of about two foot on each tide, tho saw in started in lao line of tho ineiniosi nnd the job completed with that in strument. Generally, itowovor, tho direction in vhicb. tho t.-eo ia to fall is deterraicad, rnd the cut is made in that sido tJ the depth of from one thraa foot. Then tho choppers pass to tha epposito aido nnd Login sawing at n point several feet higher than tho place of tho incision. As tho saw moves through tho heart of the giant he begins to sag down on tho side where the wound is gaping. In do ing this he Hits apart tho cut and opens the aoctiou which the saw is milking, thereby keeping free pluyfor the saw. This is nidod at times by driving wedges at tho placo whore the saw entered. Tresently it is apparent that tho section is opening wider and wider aud that tho treo is begiuniug to loan away from the cutters. They con tinue with their work a moment longer, thou is heard the cracking of tho wood iibres iu front of tho saw teeth. Anothor swish of tho Haw nud thuno iucreane. They give a report like tiring pistols and the rapidity of deto nation of a Oatling guu. Tho sounds, getting moro rapid, presently merge into n continuous roar. Then, if you aro standing near by nnd tho treo is large, you will got the impressiou that everything abovo ia coiutr.g to earth; that the whole forest is falling. Tho great mast starts slowly to topple, cracking and exploding ever louder nt its bane, until with a fright ful momentum, it comes sprit lvling dfwu, cracking nud crushing aud roaring and hitting tho earth with a clump and thump as if a whole broadside of thirleon-iuoh bom'oa had simultaneously struck a bastion. Tho choppors quickly run over the trunk with their axes and cut away all the branches. Almost before you cnu recover yournolf tho long stalk ia bare of limbs, uud then tho men begin cross-cutting it into logs or sec tions of from twouty-fonr to thirty feet, as long as it is desirod that the boards into which it is to bo reduced nt the mill shall be.

The woman confidently placed the liaoon into oue sido of the scales, while the man put his baud into tho other side, and, of course, took good cure to have good wtight. While tho woman was wrapping tho baoou up tho pound weight was fouud, aud, on seeing it, tho muu said: "Now, you see if my baud don't jtiBt weigh a pund." The pound weight was accordingly put into ouo scale aud the mau'e hand into the other, this time only just to balance. The old woman, ou seeing this, said: "Wha, I uiver send aught so near afore! Hero's a red hcrriu' for thee honesty, mason." Poaraon's Weekly. Whut'a In Nniua. There is ntdro truth than poetry in the following: C.tll a girl a ohiok and she smiles; oil I a woman a hou aud she howls. Call a youu womin a witch aud she is pleased; call an old w him a wttoh an 1 she is iadiguant. Cull a girl a kiltea and sho rather likes it; call a woman a eat aud she hates you. Women are queer. If you oall a matt a gay dog, it will flat ter him; oall hi a a pup, a hound or a our, aud he will try to alter the rasp of your faoe.

"Tho mote, etc." The "splinter" nt opposed to thn "beam." On one side self- love blind us to ourselves nnd ou the other, euvy und malice give us piercing eyes til respect to others. When wo shall bnve us much r.eal to correct ourselves, at we have Inclination to reprove nnd correct others, we shall know our own defects better than now we know those of oui neighbor. 4. "In tlilue own eye." That man I wholly unlit to point others to the way of life wiio is Himself walking In the way that lead to death. Those who blame others ought to be blameless uud harmless them selves. 5. "Thou hypocrite." 'Our Lord tours oil tho mask and gives peoplo their right name. A hypocrite Is one who professes to ne wiiiic ne I not; who cldins to too a de voted Christian, while his heart is vile, Hut in this case u person 1 culled it hypo crite because he doos not apply to bimsoll the measure by which he judges lib brother.

If wo bring Cbrlst'i words and Christ's sacrlllce with us, not one or heaven's blessings can be denied us. Hut our asking must be In harmony wltt the will ot God, uud In faith. James 4:11, 3, !!. "Whnt man is thereof you." No one is so wicked as to give tils child a stone It ho should ask bread. The child is hert represented us asking what Is necessary uud wholesome. The Lord does not nn. swer our requests unless they will be for our goon. II. "If ye then, being evil." Slnfu! people nro ready und anxious to give good gifts to (heir oblldren.

The world often glvei stones lor urean auu serpeuts for fish, bul God never does. "Good things." The Father, through Christ, gives "good things."

" Wide Is the gate." The gate of unbelief, of carnel affections, ol fleshly lusts has many ulliirements, und Is open to all. "To destruction." The end Is eieruul death. "He (hut pursuit) ovll pur suetli It to bis own destruction." I'rov. 11:1V. The way of sin leads to rulu. "Many . ...go In thereut." The way i easy ot lie. cess.

Without Christ the soul Is dead. Kph. li:5, 0. The sin of which we are guilty (John 5:40) is rejecting Christ, ourllfo. "Few there be." Few cure to renounce their sinful pleas ures. "That find it." Although thu narrow way must besought, yet it is possible tc find It. All mankind may be saved It they will in cut the conditions. How Sicilian Carts Ar Decorated.

The paintings cannot ho said to possess much artistic merit, the hot Sicilian sun playing havoc w tth thi brilliant colors, which are applied un sparingly and without much regard for harmonious blending.
