had in a marked way, confounded the

weakness was made strong in exposing

about reforms.

store her to her usual health.
Those who have a heart to do good
never need complain for laok of oppor.
tnnity.
We are tested by oar dutien. We do
not begin to realize how much depends
upon our faithfulness in the common
dept. To fail in our testing is to come
unready to great oriels.
Christ appeals to the,human will, not
to emotion but to the central kingly
power which marks us off from the.low.
er creation. It is the will whloh gives
.wan moral distinotion and snpremaoy.
The young people who feel their im-
portanoe will realize that their minds
are given for high and noble and worthy
use and they will not weaken these
minds by filling them or weakening
them with trashy reading or with Un -
pure or nnolean or low or hateful
thoughts.
It is not necessary to reiterate the
evils of drink. We will not stop for
those who do not observe and sled will
not read to know that alcohol poisoning
is the major peril of in which
we live.
It is entrenched not only in profits as
wee slavery but also in appetite's and
yields very slowly to attaok. But it is
foroed home that nations may be wreck-
ed to -day as in the past by alcohol, that
while its reckless use continues man can
never come to hie full stature and the
vision of a higher humanity oan never
be fulfilled. Our country spends a bil-
lion dollars a year for drink.
Mise M. Hammond, our superintend-
ent of press work is M present taking a

A bill to impose an annual tax on each
bachelor to be applied to a fund to aid in
the enpport of epinetere, is being consid-
ered by Maesaohnaetts House.
Mr. Proudfoot has given notioe of a
bill authorizing municipal ooanoils to
buy and operate spaying rmachinee for
orchards. His idea apparently is, that
authority should be given to municipal
councils to buy machines and lease them
on *rental to those who want to use
them.
