Look - over all of the race, 'and ou can- e a single instance where a mar voluntarily associated with the bad fo one yeae and maintained his Integra y. Sin is catching; it is infectiOus; it is epidemic. A yOung man wakes, up in one .of our -eat cities knowing only the gentle len the firm into whose ser- -vice JaS ha entered. In the morning he enters the store, and all the clerks 'mar him, measures him, dis- cuss him. The bad clerks of that establishin nt, the good clerks of that estab ishment, stand in some re- lation to im. The good clerks will wish him ell, but they will wait for a for al introduction, and even after -they have had the introduction troduotion they are very cautious as to whethat they call him into their ass° eation before they know him v/iry ell. But I the bad young- men in 1 hat -establishm nt all gather around him: They patr adze him, they offer to ehow him everything that there • is in the city on one co-nditione-that he will pay t e expenses, for ft always happees so when a good young man and a bad young; man go together to a place ef evil entertainnient — the good y onn man always has to pay the charge.. Just at the time the ticket is t be paid for or the cham- pagne bill is to be settled the bad young man will affect embarrassment and .feel owed in his pockets and say, 'Wel , well, really I have for- gotten my pocket -book." In 48 hours after this innocent young ma has entered the store the bad young men will • gather around him, slap fin' on the shoulders with familiarity and, if ' he is -eitupid In not being ble to take certain allus- ions, will ay, -"Al,. my young friend, you will h ve to be -broketi in." And forthwith hey go to work to -"break hint in." Oln young man, let no fallen young man slap you on the shoulder fam- iliarly! Turn around and give a withering glance that will make the Wretch cower in your presence. There is no monstrosity of veickedieess that can stand before the glance .of pur- ity and honor. God keeps the. light- ningA of heaven in' his owe sca,b- bard,- and _no human hand can reach them, but God gives to every young man a. lightning -which lie may use, and that le the lightning of an hon- est eYe. Anybody that understands the temptations of our great cities know e the use of one sermon like this, in which try to enforce the thought, that "a companion of fools shall be destroyed." And, first, I charge you, avoid the skeptic—that is, the young man who eteuts his thumb in his vest and swaggers about, scoeling at your old- fashioned religion, then taking eut Oa...Bible and turning over to some mys terious passage and say ing; "Ex- idein thai, my friend, pxplaiii—that. used to think just as you (10.

Garry him out and lay him down beside his old father and mother, who died under the de- lusions of the Christian religion sing- ing the songs of victory. . Again, avoid the idlers — that is, those people who gather around the store or the shOp or the factory and try te seduce you away from your re- gular calling and In your business hours try to sedace you away. There is othing that would please thein -so well as to have you give up your employmeett and consort with them.. , . These idlers You Will find standing around the, engine houses or •Sta,nding at noonday or about. noon on the stepS of some hotel Or fashionable re- staurant, giving the idea they have dined there. They have not dined there. They never dined there. Be- fore you invite- a 3/bung ma.n yugur ;association ask him plait! "Whitt do you do for a living?" If he aaye, "Nothing; I am a, gentle - malt," look out for him.. 1 eare not how soft his hand or how elegaht hie apparel or how laigh Satin/dint hie family nurne, his touch is death: Idleness is the next' door to vil- lainy.

Llli1ome one came to good old 4hbel reen and asked him why he werked pet SO years of ago when it was time for him t� rest. "Oh," he replied, "I work to keep out of mischief." And no man can afford to be idle. I care not how strong his moral ch re.cter, he cannot afford to be idi eD But you say: "A gine` in yeaeo- ple are suffering from enhlorce idle- ness. During the hard times there were a great many people out of em- ployment."

They Will get he for- tunes after awhile, while tho e men who hang around their stores, never engaging; in any useful occu ation, will be as poor then as t,1 ey are now. It is absurd for a C istian man to say be has nothing to do. I went into a Store in New York where there were five Christian men, - and they said they had notl ing to do. The whole world lying n sin. Poverty to be comforted, sick ess to be alleviated, a Bible in the bi ck of - Tice, every opportunity of men el cul- ture, spiritual culture; every duce- ment to work, yet a Christian them, sworn before high heaven to conse- crate his whole life to usefulness, has nothing to dol If you have not any business for- this world my Christian friend, then you ought to be doing • business for eternity. People go to Florence and to Ven- ice and to ,Rome to 'see one. of the works of the great masters. I think I can show you the picture of one of the great xnasters. 'I went by the field of the slothful and by the vineyard of the man voi4 of under- standing, and, lo, it wasi all grown over with thorns, and n ttles had covered the face thereof and the stone wall thereof was br ken down. Then I saw and con51der(d it well. .I looked uponit and recei Fed instruc- tion. Net a little ale p, a, lttle slumber, a little folding o the hands to sleep. So shall thy p( verty come as one that traveleth an thy want as an armed man." T ere ie no. more explosive passage in all the Bi- ' ble than that. It first be ins to hiss like the fuse of a cannon and then bursts like a 54 poUnder. The Old proverb was true. " he devil tempts most men, but i tiers tempt the devil!" Therefore eek some- thing to do. If no -wort ly business offers, then, in the name (1 the Inerd Jesus Christ, go out oe Christian toil, and the Lord will bless you, and the Lord Willehelp you. Again I counsel you, avoid . the pleasure seeker, the man!whose en- tire business it is to seek for recrea- tion and amusement. I believe in the amusements of the world so far as they are innocent. I .could not live without them.Any man of J sanguine temperament must have re- creation or die. , And yet the amuse- ments and recreationof life must ' administer to hard work. They are enly preparative for the occupation to which God has called us. God would not have given us the capacity to laugh if he did not some- times intend us to indulge it. -God 'bath hung in sky and set in wave and printed on grass many a rounde- lay. But all the music and the brightness of the natural world Were Merely intended to fit us for the ear- nest work of life. The thundercloud has edges exquisitely purpled, but it jars the mountain as it says, come down to water the fields." The flowers standing under the fence look gay and beautiful, but they say, "We stand here to refresh the husbandmen at the nooning." The brook frolics and sparkles -and foams, but it says: "I go to baptize the moss; I go to shake the thirst of the bird; I turn the -wheel of the Mill; in my crystal cradle 1 rock muckshaw and water lily; I play, but I work." , These mere plea.surists will come around you while you are engaged in your work, and they will try to take you away. They have lost their places. Why not you lose your place? Then you will be one of them. Oh, my friends, before you go with these pleas -tire seekers, these- men whose entire life is fun and amusement and recreation, remember while after a man has lived. a lifd of integrity and Christian consecration, kind to the poor and elevating to the world's condition, when lio comes to die, he has a glorious reminiscence lying on his death pillow, the mere pleasurist has nothing by way of review but a torn playbill, a ticket for 1 he race, an empty tankard or .the cast out rinds of a carousal. And as in delir- ium of his awful death he clutches the g4let., and presses it to his lips, the dregs falling on his tongue will begin to uncoil and hiss with the ad- ders of an eternal poison. -s AgaLn, beware of .Sabbath breakers. Tell too how a young man spends_hls . combed on the teilloW. Death will come up, and this skeptic will , say to Jam:. . I caneot, die. I cannot dia." Dea h will say: "You must die.

Is it exorbitant after giving six days to the feeding and the clothr ing of these perishable bodies tha God should' demand one day for tI4 feeding and the clothing of the im- mortal soul? .Our bodieS are seven day clocks, and they need to be wound up, and if they are -not wounti up they run down into the grave. N' man can continuously break the Sabbath and keep his physical and mental health. Ask those aged mend, and they will tell you they never knew men who continuously broke the Sabbath who did not 'fail either In mind, body or moral principle. Oh, my, friends, keep the Lord'S day. You may think it old fogy -ad- vice, but 1 give it to you now: member the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor and do all thy wOrk, -bat the seventh is the Sabbath Of the Lord thy God; ig it thoiu,shalt not do any work." .4. man kid that he would prove that all this wasfallacy, and so he said, 13 "1 shalt rats a Sunday prop." And he plowed th field on the Sabbath, and then he Put in the eeed on the Sabbath and I cultivated the ground on the Sabbath. When the harvest was .ripe, he reaped it on. the Sab- bath, andhe earried it lab the snow on the Sabbath, and theri he stood out defiant to his Christain nei hbors and said, "There, that is i my 5 nday crop, and it is all garnered." After awhile a storm came up 0.nd a great darkness, and the lightning of heaven struck the barn, 1 . and away went his Sunday crop. Beare, oung man, of all Sabbath breakers. Again, I charge you, beWare f as- sociation with the dissiPated. Op with- them and you will in time adopt their habits. Who is tha man fallen agairket the :curbstone, c wired with bruises and beastliness Be was as bright faced a lad a ever looked up from your nursery. His mother rocked him, prayed for him, fondled him, would not let the night air touch his cheek and hold him up and looked down into his- loving eyes and wondered for what high position he was being fitted. He entered We with bright hopes. The world beck- oned him, friends cheered him, but the archers shot at him; -vile men set traps for him, bad habits hooked fast to him with their iron grapples-; his feet slipped on the way, and there he lies.' Who would think that that , uncombed hair was once toyed with a father's fingers? Whto would think that those bloated cheeks were i over 'kissed by a mother's lips? Would you guess that that thick tongue once made- a houeehold glad with its inno- cent prattle? Utter no harsh words 'in hi $ ear. Help him up. Put the -. hat over that once manly brow. Brush the dust from that coat that once covered a generous heart. Show him the way to the home that once rejoiced at the sound of hisfootetep, and- with gentle Words tell his, chil- dren to stand back as you help, him through the % hall. Oh, if I had some art by which I could break the charm. of the tempter's howl and with mailed hand lifC -out the long serpent of eternal 'despair and shake out its coils and -cast it down and crush it to (loath! Shake off the Sabbath breaker. Oh, turn your back Upon these men. Shake off the sceptic Shake off Ito idler. Shake off the pleasurist. You May do -this wark of ejection in po- liteness, but you may do it, firmly. You are not under any circumstances to lose all the remembrance of the fact that you are a gentleman and must always act the gentleman.

' * -courteous, be polite, but be firm. Say "No" as if you meant it. If you say "No" in a feeble way, they will keep on with their implora- tion and their temptation, and after awhile you will 'tand in silence, and then you will say, after they have ! gone. on a little longer, "Yes," and then you are lost.

Their Reception at Dawson After a Discouraging Journey. "Nothing queerer or quainter ever hap- pened in Dawson City than the reception of the. schoolina'ams," said Mr. L. D. Carl, a Klondike miner. "You see, in the spring of 1897 a lot of young women, mostly from west Oregon, banded together togo to Dawson, at- tracted by the statics of high wages. They were nice girls; all of them, who had been earning their own living as clerks, stenographers, bookkeepers, seam- stresses, schoolteachers and so on, and they had- enough good American pluck to believe they could make their way in any temperature. As bad luck would have it, however, they got snow bound at Lake Been( -ft and were tied up there for over two months. That exhausted their mon- ey and enthusiasra, and when they finally set out again for the Yukon they were as homesick and hopeless and generally de- jected a crowd as ever you saw. • "Meanwhile the report reached Daw- son that a party of 25 beautiful school- ina'ams would arrive by the next boat, and great excitement prevailed. There was no school there at the time, but it was instantly aareed that several would MARCH 9. 1900 • be put up if necessary to give th e stran- gers occupation. 'What we need,' said one of the speakers at a public tneeting, 'Is the society of real ladies to give tone to the town, and we must keep 'eta here regardless of expense.' This met general approval, and arrangements, were made for an elaborate reception aid banquet, the tough elemeut being put on 'notice that the slightest disturbance might bring on a lynching. "The boat arrived about dusk, and the poor, despondent girls were amazed at the appearance of a 'reception committee who greeted them with profound bows and escorted them te a gorgeously deco- rated supper room, with a bras band tooting in the background. The Y were informed, by the spokesman that Dawson was honored by their presence and, while the town was temporarily short on schools that defect would be promptly remedied. In the interim they Were to consider themselves guests of the Munici- pality, and quarters had been engaged for them at the best hotel. The situation gradually dawned on the dumfounded young women, and their spirits soared skyward. They explained that only two of thd party were really teachers, and I next day they all secured good positions. Most of them did exceedingly well, and the majority eyentually got married. I know several who are the wives of Yu -- Icon millionaires." -New Orleans Thnes- Deritocrat. THE BRITISH SPY. Something About This Highly, Paid English Army The word "spy" has, an ugly sound owing to its many unpleasant aesocia- tions, yet in war time spies afford 'an • ar- my aid which is as valuable as it is high- ly remunerated. Otte of the maxims for oommanding of- ficers in a book for their guidance writ- . ten by Lord Wolseley is that a suceessfal spy must be petted and made 'each of. The management of spies is very difileult. Out of every ten employed lay allo officer commanding a war district he is fortu- nate if one gives him truthful informa- tion. It is a most important thing that . spies should not be known to eaeli other. Great care is generally taken by officer -A that each spy shall imagine that he iet the only one who is employed. It is very necessary that all= bona fide spies should have about their persons some means of proving themselves really to be what they represent themselves. For this purpose a coin of a certain date, a T3ible of a certain edition, a Testament with the seventh or fifteenth leaf torn out, are generally employed. By these means a spy who was employ- ed by an officer in a neutrn.I state making his way to the headquarters of the army in the field could thus at once make him- self lot ten to the intelligenee deem tment thei'e.f In some instances it is conshlered that password or sign should 1e em- ployed, as it is less compro.niisings The witting up of the right hand to the ear mid then to the left ear or some such ges- ture is'generally employed. . The more extensive the ramifications of the system the better are the chances of escaping detehtion. It is very necessary that officers of the intelligence depart- ment should be peen -hied with specially prepared paper upon which letters can be written hi ink that does not become visi- ble until it has been submitted to some chemical process. It is also neces-sary that ti commonplace letter in ordinary ink should invariably be written on the same sheet of paper containing the information that it is required to keep secret. Although a spy runs the great risk of immediate death if he is detected, yet the service is net without glory at time, and It is certftinly extremely lucrative. -Lon- don Mail.
