Just A Moment DAILY STRENGTH AND CHEER. Complied by John Q. (Quintus, (Tiie Sunshine Man) PRAYER. Grant, Almighty God, that as we have, in this world, to tight continu ally. not only with one kind of I enemies, but with innumerable ones, I and not only with flesh and blood, but ( also with the devil, the prince of dark- j ness—O grunt that being armed with i thy. power we may steadily persevere in this contest; and when thou affllct cst us for our sins, may we learu to humble ourselves and so submit to thy authority that we may hope for the re demption promised to us; and though tokens of thy displeasure may often appear to us. may we yet ever raise up our minds by hope to heaven and from thence look for thine only begotten Son, until, coming as Judge of the world, he assembles us for the enjoyment of that blessed and eternal life which he has obtained for us by his own blood. Amen. "Calvin." Could I with ink the ocean fill. Were alt the world of parchment made. Were every reed on earth a quill And every man a scribe by trade, To write the love ot God alone Would drain that ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole, Though stretched from sky to sky. —Anon. There's a prosy kind of motto that you'll find is very rife With the people' you most envy for their rare success in life. I'll admit it's not romantic, has no touch of (he sublime. But jt's just the rule to work by— namely, At it all the time. You'll observe that men and women, who. 'tin said, have made their mark Do not drop the chalk of effort at the first approach of dark;. And you'll find them at life's black board when the sun begins to climb. I For. obedient lo (heir motto, they keep at it ail the time. The thing God sols them doing gets to be their chief delight; 'Tis their first thought In the morning, and their last concern at night. They will turn away from pleasure just as promptly as from crime; Simple duty is their safeguard, for they're at it ail the time. —James Buckham. in Forward. Dayton. Ohio. TODAY'S ODDEST STORY.
