A lad at Liverpool went out to iMUhe. went (Kit into the sea, went out too far. got ■kyoiid his depth and lie floated far away. A ship bound for Dublin came along and took him on board. Sailors are generally very generous fellows, and one gave him a cap. and anckher gave him a jacket, and ; another gave him ahnea. A gentleman passing along on the beach at Liverpool found the lad’s clothes and took them ban..-, and the father was heartbroken and the tout her w as heartbroken at the loss of I heir child. They bad heard nothing from him day after day. and they ordered the usual mourning for the sad event. » But the lad took ship from Dublin and arrived in Liverpool the very day the gar melt* arrived. He knock .si at the door and the father was overjoyed and the mother was overjoyed at the return of their lost son. Oh. my friends, have you waded out l««> deep? Have you waded down into sin? Have you waded from the shore? Will you come hark? When you come bJtck will you come In the rags of your sin. or will you come robed in the Saviour's righteousness? I hrlievethe lat-
