SOMETHING TO THINK Off, My first step to

tossing from side to side on tn straw bed in
the corner of the prison-house, my first step to

my minister taught me better my master
taught me better my Bible taught me bet

it would come to this. I am undone. I am

Perhaps he said, it is too unpleasant to
be cooped up in church. What harm is there
in taking a stroll in the woods! What harm
in carrying my fishing tackle and setting on the
banks to fish,
What harm! Why, the harm is that God
is disobeyed, who says, Remember the Sab
bath-day to keep it holy" The moment youth
determines to have his own way, choosing hit
own pleasure before Gods will, that moment hi
lets go his rudder, his compass, his chart; moth
ing but Gods word can guide you safely owe
