Idleness.

The lazy man cheats himself |
of good which God hath given |
him, and of employments put
into bis hands by the bounty of
his Creator. Our time is a pos
session of inesti:nable value /;
the best employment of it
that is, such as the Scriptures
require-involves all which is
meant by our duty. The loss.
or waste of it is, therefore, no
other than the loss or omission
of all duty, the Illustration of
the purpose for which we were
created. Temptations are the
welcome guests of the-idle man.
A meddlesome, mischief-mak-
ing conceit is apt to possess
him; he rarely becomes a con-
vert to Christianity. / recol-
lect but one instance of a lazy
mans becoming sincerely pen
itent and reformed, and then
his laziness forsook him. The
idle man eats what others pro-
vide, and while they are indus
triously engaged in labor, his
business. is only to devour.
Thus he is carried by mankind
as a load,. from the cradle to
the grave is despised, loathed,
execrated, while he lives; and
when he dies, is buried, like the
carcass Of an animal, to fulfill
the demands of decency, and
merely to get rid of a nuisance
And his family, what black in.
: justice to them! God requires
, all men to be useful in some
| way, and if we would be useful
! we must not be idle, we mus
: improve our time and be indus
3 trious. TO be idle, is to offent

Q charity of others what is neces
+ sary for our support. +" Thou
: shalt not steal" -Er. paper.

THOUGHTS FOR YOUNG MEN.
The way to get along. in the
world is to make every step
one that is ahead, and each to
follow its predecessor. Full
fifty per cent of the effort in the
world is absolutely wasted on
indirect, difus6, indefinite la
labors. Young men start out
in life without purpose or point,
neither casting a thought on
their fitness or unftness for a
particular calling now going
this thing, now that, and after
that nothing; one day going
on, another on the right or left,
the next backward, and then
not going at all which is per-
haps, as bad as the whole com
bined. The straight line in
life is the one that leads
straigt ahead. This almost al.
ways secures success.
