Again, this woman of my text was
great in her application to domestic
duties. Kvery picture is a homo picture,
whether she Is entertaining nn Kllsiia,
or whether she Is giving careful atten
tion to her sick boy, or whether she is
appealing for the restoration of her
properly every pjetucc in her ease is a
home picture. Those, are not disciples
of this Shunemlto woman who, going
out to attend to outside charities', neg
lect the duty of home the duty of wife,
of mother, of daughter. No faithful
ness in public benefaction can ever
atone for domestic negligence.
There has been many a mother who
by indefatigable toil has reared a large
family of childicn. equipped them lor
the duties of life with good manners
and largo intelligence and Christian
principle, starting them out, who h:(s
done more for tlie world than ninny an
other woman whoso name has sounded
through all the lands and through all

of my text was great in hei himplie

is imxlcl tlie aged rtibj who,
Irfono
"Whittj Cnptlvc." and would not
.-WRtycYCMvcaj,ugo,nvvo put away
for the resurrection. About eighty
.soveu.yearMigo, andijiiiU before their
inarriage day, my father and mother
stood up in the old meeting house at
Somerville, N. .1., ami took upon them
the vows of tlie Christian. Through a
long life of vicissitude she lived harm
lessly and usefully and cmnc to her end
In peace. No child of want ever
came to her door und was
turned away empty. No one in
sorrow eaiiie to her but was coinfertcd.
No one asked her the way to be saved
but she pointed him to the cross. "When
the angel of life came to a nelghboi'.s
dwelling she was there to rejoice at tho
starting of another Immortal spirit.
When the angel of death came to a
neighbor's dwelling she was there to
robe the departed for '.ho burial.
We had often heard her, when lead
ing fninily prayers in the absence of
my father, say: "'(), Lord. 1 ask not
for my children wealth or honor, but I
do ask that they sill may be subjects of
Thy comforting grace." Tier eleven
children brought Into the Kingdom of
Cod. she bad but one more' wWi, and
that was that she might seu her longi
absent missionary son; and when, tho
ship from China anchored in Now York
harbor, und the long-absent one passed
over tho threshold of thu paternal
home, she said: "Now, Lord, lot Thou
Thy servant depart in peace, for mine
eyes have seen The salvation." The
prayer was soon answered.
Itwasan autumnal day when wo
gathered from afar and found only tho
house froln which the soul hud (led
forever, s'he loqked very natural, tho
hands very much us when they were
employed in kindness for her children.
Whatever else we forget, we never for
got tho look of mother's hands. As wo
stood there by the casket we could not
help but say: "Don't sho look beauti
ful?" It was a cloudless day when,
with hcitvy heart we carried her out
to the last resting place, Tim withered
leaves crumbled under hoof and wheel
as we passed, and the sun shone on thu
Itaritnn river until it looked, like lire;
but mom calm and beautiful and rad
iant was the setting sun of, that aged
pilgrim's life. No more toll, no mom
tears, no more sickness, no more death.

THE NORTHERN VENICE.
The t'lly uf .ItiiHtrriluiii uuil Hi Siirronnil-
lllRS.
In refipect to domestic life, the Dutch
are more like the lmglish than the
French. They are more, much inure,
clean and more simple than the French.
From the Hague I traveled on to Am
sterdam, thu northern Venice, as it I
so often called. Certainly there are a
great many canals. Thu houses nro
very picturesque and possess, like those
of Venice, considerable artistic merit.
The canals are, however, very Inferior,
that Is, from the artistic point of vjew.
First and foremost, thfcro ttre no'gon
dolns. and secondly, tlie water, though
far from clean at Venice, Isiiboiuinably
foul ut Ajnstcrdmu. It is dilltctilt to
iidiulre scenery while standing over an
open hewer, and I hao been Insido
ninny an underground sewer that did
not smell us foul as tlie open canals of
Amsterdam. Nevertheless from a little
distance they urn very beautiful.
Many of the ennuis liavo embank
ments wide enough to have on each
side of the wntcr 11 row of trees. Thus
wo huye for the center o'f thl' thorough
fare, water people with bargemen and
bearing barges anil craft of all de
scriptions. Then, on either side,
hmulsomu row of trees, thd whole en
closed by lofty, quaint Dutch houses
with their gabled roofs and varied
shapes and dosigtrs. Undoubtedly, it
isu town that would delight many nn
artist: und it has this great advantage
over, for Instance, Paris, that there Is
no monotony due to uniformity. The
same may be said of the people In the
Ntreot. in Holland, at least, national
costumes have not yet been abolished.
The Dutch women still dress with
their finis's headgear and strange and
large jewelry. The fishermen from
t he Zu.uler Zee still wear breeches of
wonderful and appalling proportions
Though 111010 than half a yard widj,
these wonderful garments only reneh
just below thu knee. Then the head is
covered with hucIi a strange cap.
These dresses add much to the interest
mid picturesque aspect of tho streets.
Some Idea of the peculiar aspect of
Amsterdam may be gathered from tho
feet that the numerous canals cut the
town into no less than ninety h.lands,
which are competed with each other
by about. 'iOO bridges. The ground on
which the houses stand is composed of
loam and loose mud, but there is so
much water around that this ground
otters no solid foundation for huildiiig.
It Is nec'ssury to drive plies down
sometimes l a depth of twuuty feet to
llud 11 foundation sulllclently'solul to
build upmi. Hut then tho wood worms
