I do not recognize the man who drinks l
will not recognize the man who will swear,
lie, or steal.
Is the method which Hyacinth" ap-
proves taught in the Bible? think not.
When a fellow being falls, it is not our
duty to push him lower still, but to help
him up and We cannot do this with SHOW
ell and tongs. 1t will do no good, but
harm, to strike him from the list of our
acquaintance" We must reach down
and bring him back, and make him feel
that he is man and not brute.
l feel quite sure that the most of those
who read this, Especially those who have
brothers and sons,) will agree with me in
saying, that the way to reach the fallen is
not to bar the doors of society against him,
but to make him worthy to enter the
best society. KATE
