Brad street's says: Evidences of th fact that there are now two (idea of the general trad situation, where for a year past there whs but one, come to tight this week. Different Motion of the country and lines of business return different reports, but that the situa tion a a whole la a favorable one and suffers merely by oommlsseration with th enormous and almost fevrish ac tivity of some time ago, is also evident. Excluding the great speculative cen ter, the aggregate of business i un doubtedly larger than a year ago, and the business done in several Industrie reporting reduced aotivity woold seem very large even to tboa bearishly in clined had it not been for the enormous aggregate done some abort time ago; Crop prospect, except in the wheat area of the Central West, and in some Hooded sections of the South, remain all that might be wished for. Retail demand is improving and nothing of a definitely depressing charaoter ha yet developed. In the abrupt readjustment of steel and wire prices, the iron and steel in dustries received a notable shook, but have stood the ordeal very well. In agricultural produots the situa tion is generally one of sustained strength. Some slight shading in wheat prices is largely the result of flattering winter wheat crop pros pects in the sections west of the Mississippi. Wheat, including flonr shipments, for the week aggtegate 8,583,683 bush els, against 8,898,451 last week. Failures for tbe week in tbe United State are well down to the minimum, numbering only 182, an increase of 21 over last week. Canadian failure for the week num ber 18, a compared with 19 last week.

To b willing i a rarer grace than to b doing th will of God, For he who Is willing may sometime have nothing to do and must be willing to wait; and it i easier far to be doing God's will than to be willing to have nothing to do it it easier far to be working for Christ than it 1 to be willing to cease.

Strength la Stillness. Those who make the most noise in the world are not those who have the moat power in the world. Quiet in fluences are the potent forces in God' eo Wem, and even in man's sight . As Aubrey Moore says: "Great men think, while ordinary men talk. Great saints pray, ordinary men preach. High-souqding word and showy act may impose upon the few. but it i si lent effort which move the world." This truth is not held popularly; yet Elijah learned when he was divinely shown that God was not to be recog nised in the whirlwind, the earth quake, or the fire, as he could be in "the still small voice." Even this world's wisdom testifies to the truth in the adage: "Deep waters run still est." It is God's voice which says: "Be still, and know that I am God." S. 8.

It ia a specimen of his love, rather, in tended to make glad ten thousand other families. George Bow en. Piety la the Home. Parents must show piety at home; that is, tbey must give good example and reverent deportment in the face of their children.
