FIVE DOLLARS’ WORTH.

“Years ago a poor woman gave what was to her a little fortune—five dollars—to Bible work. One hundred Testaments were bought and distributed. One fell into the hands of an infidel in New Orleans; he read it, and gave his heart and life to God. Another fell into the hands of a young man out West; he was led by it to seek the Saviour. A third went into a destitute home, consisting of a mother and five children. The mother read the third chapter of John, and ere long the door of her heart was opened to Jesus Christ, and a devout and faithful woman witnessed for God to the world. Two of her boys followed her example. She who gave the money to buy the Bibles is dead; but her works abide, and the blessings she brought about can never die.”
