If the coming generation is to be the church-goers, "the children of the present must he churchgoers. The failure on the part of Christian parents to take their children to church, by gentle but firm compulsion if necessary, is fhn r>ronnr?ti/in rif n feneration who will Deselect the hoft e of God. And for that neglect the Christian parents of today will be responsible.? ' - her. INVITF.D SIX TIM Bain one of the Rev. C. II. Yatmsn 9 evanfe istic services recently held in tin- South, e related this incident of a young man in Philadelphia who was asked on Monday to be a Christian, but declined; on Tuesday another worker gave him the choice of receiving or rejecting Chri-t. and he refused; on Wednesday it happened that again some one said to him, "Give your heart to Jesus," but "Xo," was all the aii3\ver they got. Thursday, by a strange providence, be was once more urged to give up sin, and again on Friday was lovingly invited to jseek the Saviour or all men?all with 110 etiect. as though God would do all that could be done, once more on Saturday he was entreated to ' follow Christ," but stubbornly refused. It was his last refusal. He said, "Xo, I won't. I'm going to have some fun and a good time. Tomorrow I'm coins; to Atlantic City for a Sunday's holiday trip, and I don't want you folks to keep tormenting me with your gospel invitations." He'was never asked again. Six times invited and nix times refused! Sunday be went for his pleasure to the sea, but when he came back on ilonday it was in his coffin, lie was drowned while ljathing. the power of the GOSPEr,. The theory of Strauss, that the Gospels have a mystical origin, was fully exposed when it first appealed some forty or fifty years ago, but it often reappears in various forms. It may be worth while, therefore, to reproduce an old but true incident which occurred some years siuce and was then widely circulated: Some time since, a woman delivered a lecture in Lancashire, England, against vunsiiaimy, in which sue ueciareu mat, me Gospel rarrative of the life of Christ is a myth or fable. One of the mill hands who listened to her obtained leave to ask a question. "The question," said he. "I want to ask the lady is: 'Thirty years aco I was a curse to this" town, and everybody shrank from me that had any respect "for himself. I often tried to do better, but could not succeed. The teetotalers get hold of me, but I broke llie pledge so often that they said it was no use try ins? me any long- i er; then the police got hold of inejandl was taken before the nia.'istrates, and they tried; and next I was sent to prison, and the wardens tried what they could do, but though they all fned, I was nothing better, but rather worse. Now, you sav that Christ is a myth. But when "I tried, and the teetotalers," the police, the magistrates, and the wardens of j the prison, all t.ied in vain, then Christ took I hold of me, touched my heart, and made me a new man. And now T am a member of the church, a class leader, a superintendent of the Sunday-school; and I ask, if Christ is a m.. th, how conies it to pass that that myth is stronger than all the others put together?' j The lady was silent. 'Nay, miss,' said he, . say what you will, the (iospel '/ the power of "God unto sahalioii."' "i am my own master.' "J am my own master," says the young man. Well, be your own master, ami sit j down and have an eantest and plain talk j with yourself. Ask yourself who you are, ' what you are, what" you have been doing, j what you are doing now, and what you pro- ! pose or expect to do hereafter. Ask yourself . what you have done to make the" world I wiser, or better or happier. Try to ascertain I whether you have done the world harm or done it pood, see if you have been of any real service to mankind."and how. What arevou worth to the world in which you live? What great enterprise for the promotion of human interest would suffer by your death? How manv would miss you or care whether you lived or .lied? You are one of fourteen hundred millions of human beings on earth. How much, and what sort of iufluence have you exfrciscd on othersor have yon, or do you exercise any influence worth notice? You are your ow:. ma>ter. Does the master try to be a man, or is be content to be a mere cipher, an 0 In sccietv? Has he sufficient self-respect to keep himself above all that is low, coarse, vulgar and bad? Does he always speak the truth?never use obscene nor profane language?never do a mean thing? Is he always regardful of age, re- | spectful to equals" and kind to inferiors? Does he labor earnestly to improve his mind, his morals and his manners; or, is he careless, idle and indfferentto such things? Does he spend much time in the company of idlers ?smoking, drinking and foolish talking? If bo, tell him?that master of yours?he is on the wrong track, and if he does not switch himself off. there is surely a crash ahead, and no one to save the pieces,and when it coiues, the verdict of the people will be, "served him right.'' He might base known it would come. He lived for it and he has it. ''You are your own master." Better watch that master very closely?see that he forms no bad habits, "keeps out of bad comj any, uses no improper language, is always engaged in some honest and useful pursuit", lives honestly, truthfully and usefully. If these and like things are well and faithfully attended to, then and then only may you expect to be of any real service to the generation in which you live. Remember there will be m?nv obstacles to be overcome, many difficulti s to be encountered, many temptations to be resisted and many bard struggles between inclination and duty, so that you will have to put down all the will force you can posMblv command, but choose the right in all things and stick to it, and all will end well. It requires continued and earnest effort to be a true man, true in every sense of the word, and yet every man may be a true man if he will." With all the privileges granted, and all the advantages attainable, it still depends 011 the individual himself whether or 110, he will be a true man.?[St. Louis Advocate.

In maintaining his position as an enemy c saloons, General Booth declared that th Salvation Army, of which he is the head, i deathly antagonistic to the liquor traffic, ii asmuch as they will not allow a man to sa his prayers in their midst who is not a te< totaller. "While W6 are saving sinners, said he in a large Glasgow meeting, "yo Summel the publicans" (saloonkeepers, fot even John Wesley could have been mor vigorous in his denunciations: "There ar reefs?hell-gates, if you like. There is th distillers' reefs; blow it up! There is th brewery reef, in which so many widows am [ ladies aud gentlemen had got shares, blowi up and the shareholders with it, if it woul not go in any other way! There are also th hovel reef, the sweater's reef, and all th other reefs out of which men try to becom wealthy, to build palatial mansions, and t lay up fortuues to be a curse to their chi dreii at the expense of the blood and sine* of the miserablo crowd. Blow them all up. ORIGIN OF THE BLUE RIBBO.V. The Christian Comvxonwealth (London says: "It is generally supposed that th Blue Ribbon movement had its origin ii America, but such is not the case. It wa started in North Wales, and an eniinen clergyman in the Church of England de serves the credit of having started a move ment which has done immense good through out all Welsh and English speaking coun tries. Many years ago the Rev. Mr. Lloyd better known as 'Yr Estyn,' bad been work ing hard among the drunkards of his parish and had been the means of reclaiming a larg number of them. In order to prove his sin cerity each convert had to wear a little piei of blue ribbon, and a small army was sooi formed. In the course of time a number o these left Wales for America, carrying wit! them the tiny bit of ribbon. The idea wa soon taken up and worked out by our Amer lean cousins, and the movement rapidl; spread throughout the States. Subsequently it. found its wav into Eneland and othei parts of the world," "WHAT PROHIBITION DOES. Thers can be no manner of doubt thai Prohibition increases the productive powei of wage-earners. In doing that it increase; the size of the profits that are available to: the payment of wages. It does not eto] there, however. It increases the combining power of the wage earners themselves. Thi greatest solvent known for a labor organiza tion is drink. The Knights of Labor under stood that when they barred saloonkeeper from among them. There is something ir the devil of alcohol that destroys the asso ciational ties of men. even thoss stronges possible ties of the family. In the late Nev York Central strike one of the very firs orders sent out by Powderly to the Knightwas to keep out of the saloons' Why? Be cause the men could not sus./o the strik< and sustain the saloons at th9 same tim? They never can. The argument can be epitomized as fol lows: 1. Drink, by impairing the productivi power of embloyer and employe, lessens th< profits of the business out of which wage must come. 2. Drink, by wasting the means and im pairing the self control of the wage-earners imruiirc thoir nnir?p t/i rvmfcpnfl ill An nrmn ized way, for their just share of the profits ?The Voice. WHICH SIDE HE IS ON. Rev. I>. F. Mills, the evangelist, who rt cently conducted a successful revival at El gin, 111., took occasion at one of his meet iogs to refer to the liquor question as lo. lows: I would like to give a little sermon on terr psrance, and I would like to make it so plai; that everybody could unlerstand. Some times a person will insult me by asking mi which side of the temperance or prohibitioi question I am on! Which side am I on? Well you gc to the drunkards and thieves, and bur glars and gamblers, and saloon keepers am the makers of the accursed stuff, and fini out which side they are on, and then put m down on the other side. As you go down ti that wrote'aed hovel, where the poar wotnai worse than widowed, sits with her wors than orphaned babe at her broast, her heart' blood dripping away drop by drop, put you ear down close to her heart, and noar whicl side she is on, and then put me down on he side. Why is it that these accursad saloon exist in Elgin to-day? Because men worshi] the god that favors hades. Suppose a mai should come here to-day and take one of you fairest and brightest children, ami by mak idiot, the whole community would ba aftei him. Millions of dollars would not indue you to license him to do such a thine if h could do it in tea minutes, and it is only i question of five years, or possibly ten o twenty, and you will allow him to do tha very thing, and for only a paltry few hun dred dollars. I will say one thing more: If I have ever since the day I gave my heart to God. b; voice, or vote, or influence withheld, givei the weight of one finger in support of th accursed traffic, I should deserve to have m; son fill a drunkard's grave or to give m; daughter into the foul embrace of one of th loathsome products of the business. Now, i any one does not understand this, let hie now rise up and say so. TEMPERANCE NEWS AND NOTES. "Brandy chocolates" are one of the objec tionable devices of confectioners with liqaoi selling proclivities. Milwaukee has 1500 saloons, in which it i estimated that $22,500 is expendei by thei patrons every day.
