Not long ago, a great drought prerailed in soma of the midland counties of England. Several pious farmers who dieaded lest tbeir expected crops should perish for lack or moisture, agreed with their pastor and others to hold a special prayer meeting to pcliliur God to send the needed rain. Tbey met accordingly J and the minister coining early, had time to exchange kindly greetings with several of his flock. He was surprised to tee one ol his little Sabbath scholars, bending under the wrijjht of a huge old family umbrella. " Why, Mary," auid ho, what mode you bring that umbrella, on such a lovely morning as this ? " The child, g ,r,ing on his lace with evident surprise at the inquiry, replied, Why, air, I thought as we were going to pray to Ood for ra'n, I'd be sure to want the umbrella." The minister smiled oil her. and the service shortly aftcrcmmii'-nced. Whilst they wre praying, the wind rose i the aky, before bo clear and bright, became over.'ast with clouds, and soon, amidst vivid Hashes ol lightning and boavy peals of thunder, a storm of rain deluged the vtuntry. Those who attended tho meeting, unpi-rpnred to receive the blassing tboy sought, ivnohed their homes drenched and soaked, whilst Mary and her minister returned together under the family umbrella.
