to God, there were in every iamily and from every
heart a telegraph from which messaged of suppli-
cation, prayer, intercessions and thanksgivings were
daily sent to a throne of grace. Again there is no
need of wires, nor battery, nor machinery required
by this telegraph, all that is necessary is a sincere,
upright heart, kindled with ardent longings after
that, which you ask for, and your message flies upon
the very air of heaven, and reaches the ears of Him,
who constantly sits at the other end of the circuit.
Neither need we go to this or that place where there
is an office, but from every place, wherever you are,
in the lonely desert, oh the boisterous ocean, on the
sterile mountain top, at home or abroad and alone
or in company, in sickness or in health, in every
place and under all circumstances you can send your

message.
