The Helping Hand.

And lienia us in with fear and doubt,
That wo may early look to hi in,
And trust his care to help na out
Ol'dnngcra wo could ne'er witliatum),
Did be uot lend a helping hand, . ;
Each day wo gird ourselves afresh,
And with new zeal our way pursue;
While Satan ever strives to hiuo
The Caiiiuin irlorics fiom our viow:
Wo nu'er should reach the heavenly land,
uut pur u oifvior'a uuiping nana.
Through flro nm flqod, tlirougl clouds

Thnt throated madly to doatroyt
We reiicli tlio heaven f repone,
And feel the Angels' thrill.of Joy
Por all these gulta of life are apannod

How could wo live ye o'er again,

SCANDAL.
BY NEWTON HALL, D.
Three is perhaps 110 sin more
prevalent among professors of
religion and less recognized as
sinful than speaking evil of
others. There are many per
sons who would not for the
world steal a dollar, or tell a
downright lie, or carry on Sun
day trade, or give up church-
going, who yet make a habit of
talking scandal. This some
times is even digniQed with a
religious semblance. Some ev
idently consider 'that Sunday
talk is discussing religious peo
pie. If Parson This or Deacon
That is put under microscope,
and his defects, real or suppos
ed, pointed out; if the misdo
ings of another sect or a rival
congregation aro descanted on,
this is religious conversation. It
may be the worse abuse of the
tongue. How much less oppos
ed to the association of Sunday,
how much less irreligi
i i i it
wouia do to discuss tiie mar
kets and the harvest, or even
theatre and the ball-room, than
thus to offend against the char
ity which is the very essence of
true Christianity, St. Paul
tells us that we may . read the
Bible in its original tongues,and
preach it in all tho languages
of the world, and possess the
most profound knowledge of
theology,, and expound it with
angelio eloquence, and bo the
instrument of doing moro good
in - converting sinners than if
wo healed the' sick and raised
he dead, and . in' ; ostontation
benevolance give all our prop
erty to the poor, and in tho en
thusiasm of zeal give bur body
tofhe'fitakoj'and yet that if
destitute of charity, , all this
would profit us nothing. And
1 of charity he says that it "think
eth no evil, rejoiceth not in in
iquity," and "beareth all things"
or covereth over all things. It
takes no pleasure in hearing or
talking of the fancied or real
faults of others. Elsewhere he
says: "Let all bitterness and
evil-speaNing be put away from
you, with all malice." St
James says: "Speak not evil
one of another." And the Old
Testament also describes the
righteous man as one who
"lifteth not up a reproach
against his neighbor."
Tho most malignant kind of
evil-speaking is inventing the
slander ; but, as Isaac Barrow
says, there is not much differ
ence between the great devil
who makes it, and the little
imps who circulate it. . Says
one : kI don't bear false wit
ness, I only tell what I have
heard." But how do you know
it is false? How seldom they
who spread an evil report take
any pains to investigate its
truth. It may bo false ; and,
if so, you are bearing false wit
ness. Be sure before you re
peat a charge that it is true.
Once uttered you cannot recall
it. He to whom you tell it tells
others. If vou find out vou
v ay
were mistaken views you had
given to others. And, even if
we know the accusation is true,
we ought not ts publish it, un
less to do more good than by
concealing it. Before repeat
ing an evil report we should
ask : "Does charity prompt me?
Am I seeking the good of oth
ers?" If it is not a painful du
ty, is it not a pleasurable sin?
Yes there are people who ev
idently take pleasure in spread
ing evil reports. Is it from a
wanton .exercise of power?
They love to be the cause of
excitement and wonder in oth
ers, iney pretend to prevent
mischief by enjoining their au
ditors not to tell any body 1; Is
not this bocause they wish to
secure the monopoly of being
the first to tell it themselves ?
Often this practice arises from
envy. The rich, the wise, . the
good are rendered less superior
to ourselves wlien some evil is
said of th6m. So ly slander
tlioy" aro brought down more to
our level. , Sometimes it arises
rom pride. .: There is a secret
self-laudation- in finding fait
with another ' 1 The scandal
monger seems to say', fllow
much better I am 1" ,Some BQera
o think that there ia a , fixed
amount of merit and of praise in
tho woild and so tho'mofo Ihey
deprive others'oY ' it the ' more '
' they reserve to themselves.
How hypocritical the sorrow
of an evil-speaker. He prefa
ces his with with : ''I've been
dreadfully shocked to hear
such things 1 I'm very, very
grieved to have to tell you so
and so." But how often be
neath this mask there is "re
loicing ia iniquity. Ihere is
positive satisfaction, there is an
exultation, ill-concealed, at the
inconsistencies and disgrace of
an enemy,' of a rival, of any one
who has stood high in the esti
mation of .others. The evil
speaker should bear in mind
that, whether the person ma-
linged be guilty or innocent,
the speaker condemns himself,
as lacking that charity without
which he is nothing,
' A friend of the writer, just
dead, would never tolerate evil
speaking in his presence, al
ways saying: " Don t take tne
judge's chair." Another, when
evil is spoken against another,
says : " Go on, I am ready to
hear. Only remember I shall
go at once to the person and
tell him all you say of him."
Another , used to exclaim :
" Stop the trial until we send
for the accused, and hear what
he has to say for himself." Ut
terly opposed to this love of
scandal is the charity that
thinketh no evil. It delights
in goodness, looks lor it, is
prompt to recognize every sign
of it, and heartily commends it
to otheit. As a mother, bo
cause, she loves her child, is
loth , to accept, any accusation
brought against it, but is prompt
to believo whatevor is said in
the child's praise, so charity to
our neighbor will load us to be
lieve all things in his favor, so
far as it is possible, and even,
in the 'abscence of evidence, to
" hope all things" As greedy
vultures pouncing down on a
putrid carcass, as filthy as flies
buzzing round a stinking dirt
heap, aro the gossipers, who,
with evident relish, utter dis
traction or listen to it As the
lark which soars and sings only
in the light, as bees which are
attracted only by the flowers
that cxhalo sweetness, so are
tho . possessors of that charity
which thinketh no evil but ro

; Homim i Pudding. Prepare
as for batter cakes, add one egg
for each pint, some whole cin
namon, sugar to suit . the tast
and a few , raisins, and bake
like rice pudding.. A little but
ter or chopped suet may be
added. Serve hot or cold, with
or without sauce. . ' '
It is not so generally Irnown
as it ; ought to-be that stale
baker's, or other loaf bread, may
be made as nice as freshly
baked, by dipping the loaf in
clean cold water and twarming
through in a hake oven! -Much
bread might be saved that is
thrown away, if this were more
generally practiced than it is.
AlTM JAM.-Pare and quar
ter the apples, which should be
ripe and of the best eating sort;
put them in a pan with just
water enough to cover , them,
and boil until they can be re
duced to a mash. Then for each
pound of pared apples, a pound
of sifted sugar is added, sprin ¬
kled over the boiling mixture.
Boil and stir it until it is re
duced to a jam. Then put it
into pots. The above is the
most simple way of making it;
but to have it of the best possi
ble cleanness, make a thick
sirup with three pounds of su
gar to each pint of water, and
clarify it with an egg. Then
add one pint of the sirup for
every three pounds of apples,
and boil the jam to a proper
thickness.
Roman Punch. Take two
pounds of best loaf sugar ; beat
fine the peels of three oranges:
then add the juice of eight or
ten oranges, one quart of water,
and lemon juice in such pro
portion as to give a dash o:
acidity without making posi
tively sour. Now pass throtgh
a thin cloth. Whip up the
whites of four eggs, and mix in
well. To ten punch glasses
add half a tumblerful of rum.
Freeze it and serve up in punch
glasses set around the table, or
set it on the table in an urn or
pitcher after the company are
seated, and let each person
help himself. Roman punch
comes in just after you com
mence the meat dinner, or after
you remove the meats like
champaigne, and to take the
place of sangaree -not as
dessert, or with dessert.
Custard Without Eaas. To
one quart of new milk, one
teaspoonful of rennet wine, or
a small piece of rennet, a little
lemon, nutmeg or vanilla, or
any spice you prefer, add one
tablespoonful of sugar to each
quart of milk. If too sweet,
the milk will not set . firmly or
quickly. Stir all together, and
set by the stove or near the
fire i cQyer .closely.-- It should
begin to stiffen in an hour. If
it does not, add more wine or
rennet When firm) before the
whey separates, take out the
piece of rennet if the skin was
used, and set on ice till dinner.
to bo eatin with sugar and rich
cream. Nutmeg is always aa
improvementeven if lemon or
vanilla is used. ,
Tho ; wine-rennet is nicer
than simply tho skin, and it is
a good idea to keep a bottle of
wine with a piece of rennet
always on hand, as it is often
desirable to have it ready.

Two Sides to Every Question.

When a man ' ana b

quarrel, we must hear both
sides, before' wecan fairly
judge between, them. , .There is
another case in which there are
two sides to the question! For
long time we have' consid
ered " choirs" great nuisances,
but a short time ago we did as
politicians used - to do-that is
we got " on the fence," and
could not tell how to choose be
tween the pews and the choir.
Very lately, we have jumped
down on the . choir side," and
now we think, it j well to have
some to praise the t Lord I'pri' it'
the choir did not do it, nobody
would. Everybody abuses the
singing of the choir, and yet
the brethren and the sisters "
too, lean lazily luck in the pew,
as if at a fifty-cent concei t, and
leave a few zealous ones to
scream themselves hoarse in
trying to fill the house with
music, . when. if. everybody!
would take hold on the,, tune,
anywhero or any how the house
would resound with praise to
God, -and, in fact, if the choir
did not sing to please the pews,
the latter could carry , it Jail
their own , way. Now, since a u
bird that wont sing,' can't be J
made to sing, we think it only
fair that those who are too lazy
or sick to worship God be per
mitted to furnish ' hymn books
to the Lord's poor, who - have
the desire to worship but ; are
unable to purchase' what they
need. If you will allow us to
suggest that hereafter it be the
duty of the deacons to ascer

whether he is sick or lazy ; and
if he is neither, then to provide
the member with a' neat, plain
