Who will not have His best.

Give me, O Lord, Thy highest choice,

Let others take the rest.

Their good things have no charm for me,

For I have got Thy best.

“The body is not one member, but many” (I. Cor. xii. 14).

We have a friend who has a phonograph for his correspondence. It consists of two parts. One is a simple and wonderful apparatus, whose sensitive cylinders receive the tones and then give them out again, word for word, through the hearing tube. The other part is a common little box that stands under the table, and does nothing but supply the power through connecting wires.
