V PIETY FOR AOM T is not unusual for people H to keep their best house- I O hold things the beat bed, 5 and chlnn for their guests; S0C some keep for them their fcest looks, tnnnners and words; some ICO still farther and keep all their piety for them. Not a bit of It do they use Cor themselves or their families; It Is never seen on ordinary occasions, and o Is perhaps nil the nicer, and there tn all the more of it for compnny. Enough of it there surely is. If not a surfeit. The visitor Is treated to it with ft liberality like that of the West ern housewife, who, on being told by Iter minister that she might put less molasses In his tea, insisted that 'if fthe made it all molasses It wouldn't be too good for him.. It was Mrs. Simpkins' parlor nice, religious-looking parlor, very, A mon strous great Bible, bound in fine mor occo and gold, with a purple ribbon book-mark, a yard long, dangling white crucifixes, lay alone In seeming sacred liess on the marble centre table. Three certificates of life-membership in re ligious societies hung in heavy gilt frames upon the walls. No idle orna ments or vain curiosities on the what not, but Divine songs and sacred liyrans, Baxter's Saints' Host, Taylor's Holy Living and Hying, Howe's Bless cdness of the Righteous books of ex alted piety, that benr their renders like angel wings to the very gates of the beautiful city. Beside them were choice piles of magazines, labelled "Guide to Holiness." The air of the place was still and olemn, almost holy. Deacon Wilson felt that it was while lie waited there for Mrs. Simpkins. He took up a num ber of the "Guide to Holiness." and opened it. "Perfect Love," "Heaven Below," "Living Below Our Privilege," be rend in the table of contents. "What 'ft godly woman Sister Simp kins Is!" he Bald to himself, and laid the magazine in place, feeling himself o far from ho'incss that the very titles of the articles were discouraging to Urn. "I am glad there an some good peo ple," lie added, looking r.rouud the room, at the "parlor Bible," and the life memberships, "yes, Sister Slnip klns Is a very devoted womnn." Mrs. Simpkins entered with sweet nd placid countenance, nnd grave, subdued manner, like one Just leaving chapel service or closet meditation, and In low, chastened tones, welcomed the deacon, and assured him of her high estimate of the privilege of Christian communion, of the strength she de rived from Christian association, the comfort from Chrlstlnn sympathy. The dencon had barely time to make ft suitable response, when she in quired: "And what is the state of Zion, fleacon? What say the watchmen on her walls?" The question was general, and the deacon was safe in the answer: ( "Few go in at the gates." "And why? Why Is it?" exclaimed Mrs. Simpkins, with an air and tone of touching solicitude. "Why must ve wait so long to see the spirit of God poured out? Surely the fault is In ourselves. The church Is living far below her duty and her privilege. Too ninny of us are not yet sanctified, wholly sanetlfled-ono with the Lord. Too many of us still cling to the world, till have appetite for the fleshpots of Egypt We must come out from the world, and we must not look back." "Oh!" groaned the good deacon, "I feel sometimes that I am tho Achan in the camp of Israel, the Jonah that hin ders tho ship." "Do you ever read the 'Guide to Holiness?' " asked Mrs. Simpkins. when she had fully delivered her opinions on the condition and duty of the church. The deacon confessed that he had not "It's an excellent work, dea con," said Mrs. Simpkins, with slightly Increased warmth of manner. "I can recommend it with entire confidence. I have read it three years, and find it very spiritual. Perhaps you would like to read it. Take this last num ber, if you would." "Thank you, sister, not to-day. Some other time, perhaps." "The "york strenuously nrges the doctrine of entire sanctlflcatlon: that It Is the privilege of all Christians. What do you think of it, deacon?" queried Mrs. Simpkins. "Ob, I don't know," sighed the good man. "The command is, 'Be ye holy as I nm holy,' but. oh, dear! sometimes I'm afraid I haveu't even been Justl-fled-that after all, I shall be a cast away." "V,'e need faith, faith to lay hold on the promises," urgud the unwavering Wra. Simpkins. "But my life Is so poor, sister," proaned the deacon. "I come so far short in everything. The thing I would not do, I do, and what I would, I do not." "I believe it is our privilege to live above sin," began Mrs. Blmpkine, when the door opened, and a smutty, uncared-for little fellow, of half a dozen years, put in his head. "Yes, darling, you may taka oae off the bureau. Jow don't dUturb mother any more." "I believe it Is our blessed privil gc," resumed Mrs. Simpkins. "to live above slu, to have Christ dwelling in us continually, filling us with perfect love, raising us above all doubts ami fears, and strengthening us with the nope or glory." , , "A blessed privilege!" echoed the deacon, and rose to go. Don't furbish the parlor with any more alitfous show 11 ou've glvan her COMPANY good wages as you'd think yourself deserving of if you were in her place. Don't go to a single meeting when she will lose more by your going than you will gain. Don't say any more to the church about sanctlflcatlon here below till you've made your own family think such a thing is possible. Learn to be Just before you even aim at perfec tion; learn to be patient before you think you have reached it; and be sure and take the opinion of those who know you best before you conic to a settled opinion on the subject. "Don't think I'm persecuting yon, wife, nor anything of the sort. I'm glad you're a pious woman, and that's one reason why I married you. Every man likes to have a good wife. I want a little of your P'ety myself; and the children wouldn't be the worse for some, nor Bridget neither. Wo aren't deacons nor ministers, nor saints, but we should like to be treated in a sweet, heavenly way smetlnies, "I thank you for this visit, deacon," said Mrs. Simpkins. "I think it is good for the saints to speak often to one another. Come again, soon, dea con, and borrow my 'Guide to Holi ness.' " "Thank you, thank you," said the kind-hearted deacon, hastening his movements, seemingly nlnrmed at this second mention of the magazine. "Thank you. I nm glad we meet so often in tho house of God, sister." "I nm never willingly absent from the means of grace." answered Mrs. Simpkins with something like a glow of satisfaction on her sweet face. "I am glad you love God's worship, sister. Good-by." And the dencon took his lenve in no way benefited by his visit, and feeling that he had conferred no benefit. Mrs. Simpkins was on spiritual heights too far above him. He could uot touch the hem of her garment She flew upstairs to her nursery, and snatched the baby from Bridget. "Now go to your washing as quick as you can, and try to have it done in sonic kind of season for once. And have your dinner cooked decently, for once, if you can." Not a word of thanks to the poor ser vant for having held the baby so long, while her work was lying undone below stairs. What had so suddenly changed Mrs. Simpkins' look nni man ners? What had driven away her sweetness nnd placidity, her heavenly smile? How changed her voice was! So keen and cutting. How angry she looked as she called to her little son: "Jimmy, come here!" The boy obeyed. "Now don't you ever come again to the parlor when I'm there with company," she exclaimed to the young intruder, as she cuffed him first on one ear and then on the other, making both ring. She did not call him darling, then. "You're the worst boy I ever saw," she went on. "How many times have I told you not to come to the parlor when I'm there with any company? And yet you al ways come. Just as sure as I am there, in comes your frowsy head." This was true, for tho child was bright enough to know his opportunity. The only sweet liberal time his moth er ever had, was when she was under the observation of compnny. Then, for nppenranco sake," she would al ways give him what bo asked for. He always had to pay for it afterwards In tingling cars and smarting flesh, but ho was well accustomed, tough ened, and did not mind them much. This uusnlntly nnd unwholesome treatment had only Just been admin istered to Jimmy, when an odor of burning food was perceptible. "Bridget!" screamed Mrs. Simpkins; "your soup is burning, Bridget!" No answer; nnd leaving the baby with Jimmy, Mrs. Simpkins flew to the kitchen and snatched a kettle from the stove. "What made you let the soup burn?" she exclaimed, as Bridget entered. "I was on tho shed, ma'am." "But you ought not to be ont of your kitchen when you've anything on the fire." "But I had to hang out the clothes, ma'am, or they wouldu't be dried. I was so long with the baby that the washing's far back, ma'am." "I never saw anything like it. You've always some excuse, no matter what you do. Why didn't you set the soup back while you were on the shed?" "I did not think of it, Bure." "And why didn't you think of It? I've tried so hard to make a good girl of you, and I declare I'm most tired out." "Well, I've thoughts of giving you rest from me. There's no use in so much said, and being so tired, all for a sup o' broth." "No words, Bridget; I never allow my girls to answer back. It's bad enough to have my things burut up, without any impudence from you." "You can look out for auother girl to do your work. I can't suit you, and you've leave to find one that can." "How foolish in you, Bridget, to get mad Just for nothing. It was my place to get angry, and not yours. It was my money that was burnt in the soup." "Ah, and there was no money burnt at all, unci no loss of soup, rieltber for the children and me'll have it all to ate, burnt or not burnt as you yourself kuowi well. And it's uot all about the soup; there's enough more; fretting and fussing from morning till night, whenever yourself's in- the house; and I'm running here for the children, and there for yourself, and me work to be done all the same, and J9 never pleased, but always this -is wrong and tha other ain't right, ant me working till I can't hold me two feet t'wunst to the floof for the pain, and thin I've niver done the work half well enough." "If your are dissatisfied, yon had better go, Bridget; but first consider what it is to have a rood steady place, with good religious people. You Irish girls never know when you're well off." "And it's not well off any one Is, that works in this house." answered Bridget. "I sha'n't listen to any more of your Impudence. Bridget I wish you to keep on with your work till I cnu get an other girl," said Mrs. Simpkins. There was something Indescribably galling and oppressive in her tone and mnnner, that roused the worst feel ings the generous, good-natured Brid get was capable of, and she dashed the dipper from her hand to the floor before Mrs. Simpkins had turned her back. Mr. Simpkins came home tired and worn with business, nnd the first thing that fell upon his ears was the dash of the dipper and the next a complaint from his wife. "What worthless Milngs these ser vants are!" "What now?" he asked. "Oh, Bridget has flared up." "What's the matter?" "She complains of her work." "I don't much wonder. She's at It every morning at five o'clock, and I leave her hard at it when I go to bed, and yet I don't believe it is ever done." "Well, whose fault is it. I should like to know?" asked Mrs. Simpkins. "It isn't mine, I know," answered her husband; "and it don't seem to be Bridget's." "Then I s'pose you'll have it that It's mine," responded the wife, "I didn't say so." "You might as well." "Do you think so? Now whose fault is it? All our girls complain of being overworked, and scolded, and underfed, and underpaid; nnd you have the whole management of things here. I leave all house matters to you." "And this Is what I get for my management," interuptcd Mrs. Simp kins. "But not all," responded her hus band. "Yon get ft great reputation for piety; n great deal of time to go to meetings, male and female, sewing so defies, maternal assoclaitons, anni versaries, and every other religious meeting, far nnd near, that you can hear of. And you get money for 'Guides to Holiness,' and life member ships, and great expensive frames to hang their certificates in, thereby obey ing the Divine command, 'not to let your left hand know what your right hand doeth,' all your good work done secretly that you may be rewarded openly." "What has all this to do with Brid get?" interrupted Mrs. Simpkins, a little touched by the cutting irony. "It has n great deal to do with her," answered her husband, "If it puts a part of your work on her, or tires you out so as to make you cross and un reasonable with her, or if it makes you pinch her in wages, or deny her in food, or wrong her in any way; you'll allow that, won't you?" "Yes. if it does." "Well, don't It? I ask the question. "What would you have mo do more than I do now I should like to know." "Ferhaps not more, but I would have you do somewhat different. Y'ou can make some equalization. Be as sweet and angelic with Bridget as you are with your deacons, as mild in the nursery where only God and the chil dren hear you, as you would bo if the Maternal Association were here. Show a little of your dcadncss to the world and heavenly mlndedness when the new fashrons come. Stop taking the 'Guide to Holiness,' and give the mon ey to Bridget, as her rightful due. and perhaps 'twould make is better. I'm sure it wonld make us happier, nnd you, too. Suppose you try and give us a littlo more family piety. "This i my first sermon, nnd I hope it will be productive of good. There's no company here, so I won't pretend that it has been preached from a sense of duty, but because I feel out of patience r.ud Just like speaking my whole mind." Well, what did Mrs. Simpkins say in answer? This only: that she was glad there was no one in her own family to bear him; that bud was glad there were some people who had a good opinion of her; that the Rev. Dr. Smoothtongue hnd told some of the church thut very week, he wished there were a few more women Just like her. Waverley Magazine. truth Heaviest Han la EucUnrJ.
