FOUND EMPLOYMENT.

AN OLD LADY SAVED FROM LITTLE ANNOYANCES.
"Your prayers have been heard and answered in mercy. The old lady has not been quite so much annoyed. Thank G.o.d for some peace for the aged one, not able to bear what younger people can, that go out into the world and can find relief. I thank my heavenly Father for his loving- kindness and tender mercy for those that cry to him in trouble."
INSANITY DISPELLED.

RESTORED TO HEALTH.

TEMPTATIONS REMOVED.

THE HEART OF A CLERGYMAN TURNED FROM THOUGHTS OF AMBITION.
"I sent a request to you for a young man, who was called, and eminently fitted for the ministry, but was tempted, by ambition, not to listen to the divine call, and obstacles had hedged his way somewhat. After I requested your prayers in his behalf, this temptation was removed, and nearly one hundred persons were converted in the church which was under his care."
A GRATEFUL TRIBUTE.
"For a long time I have been the subject of personal affliction, caused by _two internal tumors_ of the _worst type_. Speedy death seemed inevitable; yet there was a little hope that a surgical operation might possibly remove the difficulty and prolong my day. To this hope I clung, submitted to the operation, and it was a success. To the earnest prayers of Christian people is due this grateful acknowledgment."
WAS A PERFECT SLAVE TO LIQUOR.
"Please return _thanks_ to our kind Heavenly Father for this answer to prayer. All last Winter requests were sent in for a gentleman, a perfect slave to liquor. Those prayers were answered, and he is attending church regularly, striving to do what is right to please his Heavenly Master."

A BOUNTIFUL BLESSING.
"Some time ago I solicited your prayers for a blessing on my services, and _never, in all my life_ before have I been blessed as since that time. 'Tis truly wonderful; it has seemed as if I must have become some one else, and that it could not longer be me speaking with such boldness, and apparent success. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name."
SAVED FROM THE COMPANY OF A BAD LOVER.
"A week ago I begged you to pray for my daughter, who had given her heart to an unworthy man, praying that G.o.d might guide her to see him as he is, and turn her love from him. She is a child of G.o.d. In answer, G.o.d has caused a rupture between them."
AWAY FROM HOME, BUT NOT AWAY FROM G.o.d.
