!" 7 Won't"

The other day little boy burst out
crying in school, and he cried as if his
heart would break. Did another boy
pinch or hurt him? No. Was his spell
ing lesson too hard? Nc. What 2Oere
those tears for? His teacher called him
to her side, and asked Freddy what the
matter was. II want to 90 home. o.,
do let me 60" sobbed Freddy "What
for, my dear child?" asked the teacher
in her own kind way go" said Freddy,
" said I won't to my mother before
school, and 1 want to 60 home and tell
her how sorry am, and ask her to for
give me"
They were penitent tears, then, the
best tears child could she'd But then
you must remember
tbs not enough to sag
We'er sorry and repent,
And still go on from day to day
Just as we always went.
Repentance is to leave
The sins we loved before,
And show that we in earnest grieve
By doing so no more.
Yes, no more. hope Freddy had no
more Il wonts for his mother

whatever form he may suggest wrong
doing to us, is one sure means of success
in life. Tampering with evil is always
dangerous.
Avoid the beginnings of evil is an
excellent motto tor every boy starting
out in life
Oh, how many young men have en-
deavored, when halfway down the hill
of wrong-doing, to stop, but have not
been able Their own passions, appetites,
lusts, and bad habits have driven them
rapidly down the hill to swift and IT.
remediable ruin.
My young friends, stop before you be-
gin to go DOM hill; learn now to say to
all invitations to wrong-doing, from
whatever source they may come, " No, l
thank you. and, in your old age, glory
crowned, you will thank me for this ad-
vice, and that you practiced it from the
time you read it in the Golden Days.

" No, I Thank Your Or, Stop
Before You Begin.

Success depends as much on not doing
as upon doing; in other words, Stop
before you begin" has saved many a
boy from ruin
When quite young lad, l came very
near losing my own life and that of my
mother by the horse l was driving run
ming violently down steep hill and over
dilapidated bridge at its foot.
AS the boards of the old bridge flew
up behind u.s. it seemed almost .miracu-
lous that we were not precipitated into
the stream beneath and drowned. Ar
irving home and relating our narrow
escape to my father, he sternly said to
me:
Another time, hold in your horse be-
fore he starts"
How many young men would have
been saved if early in life they had said
when invited to take the first step in
wrong-doing.
No, l thank you.
If John, at that time clerk in the
store, had only said to one of the older
clerks, when invited to spend an even
ing in a drinking-saloon, No, / thank
you" he would not to-day be the inmate
of an inebriate asylum
If James, a clerk in another store,
when invited to spend his next Sabbath
on a steamboat-excursion, had said, No,
| thank you, he would to-day have been
perhaps an honored officer in the church
instead Of occupying a cell in the State
Prison
Had William, when at school, said
when his comrade suggested to him that
he write his own excuse for absence from
school and sign his fathers name, No,
l thank you : will not add lying to
wrong-doing,' he would not to-day be
serving out term Of years in prison for
having committed forgery.
In my long and large experience as an
educator of boys and young men, l have
noticed this-that resisting the devil, in

go ahead. If you amt kerful, you'll
split yer timber.
Mart was careful then, but he had
trouble before him. He had picked out
number of very straight shingles, and
he was whiting away on these now as
if he was being paid for it. He cut them
down to six inches long, and shaved
them at the sides, so that two pieces
laid together were just foot wide.
With little more whiting after that
he fitted them all, one by one, into the
eight grooves in his "hub," and his
water-wheel" was done. A proud boy
was Mart, but he ought to have kept on
being careful.
Look outl" said Mr.. Jellicombe, as
Mart raped hard on one of the single
pieces, to drive it in more firmly but it
was too late
Crack the hub was split from end
to end.
Got to go to work and make new
one, said Mart, ruefully.

Iple of two-inch screws, 'and screw that
together again. It'll be stronger n it
was before
That was capital idea, and it only
took few minutes to carry it into effect
Make your end pins Of hard wood, :"
said Mr.. Jellicombe; "and shave EN-
smooth. Then thy'll run easy
That was easy enough, but one of
those end pins" was made of an old
broom handle, and was more than foot
long.
81 see what you're up to, said the
carpenter, with grin. You've made
right down good Job of it, too. Grease
your journals before you let EN- get wet. ="
Mart's journal" for his end pins to
run in were two holes he bored in a
couple of boards. When these were
stuck up on each side of the lower end
of his hume, and the water-wheel was
set in its place, Mart took of his hat
and shouted
Hurrah the brooks at work !"
So it was, for it was rushing fercely
through the two old raisin-b boxes, and
down upon the wide paddles of Mart's
wheel, and this was spinning around at
tremendous rate.
You've done it ~
Is that you Mr.. Jellicomb 1 didn' t
know you'd come
4" You've done it. Now what?"
"Why, I'm going to put another wheel
on this long end pin, and set another one
above it, and put strap over both OF
them"
"oh, that's it. Going to make pull
ley and band All right It'll run.
There's plenty of water-power But
what then? Going to build mill?'
"Guess not. All I care for is, I've set
the brook to work
"Why don't you make it do some
thing, then, now you'v found out how p
Don't know of anything small enough
for brook like that"
"Ill tell you, then. There's your
mother big churn, that goes with crank
You white out wheel twice as large
as that, and set it little stronger, and
raise your dam few inches, and you
can run that churn."
Hurrahl I'll do it,
There was good deal of busy whit
thing before Mart finished that second
job, but before two weeks were over there
was butter on Mrs Benson's dinner table
which had actually been churned by the
brook at the bottom of the garden w.
