church, with whom the writer's father
was on intimate terms, was peculiar,
for his refusal to receive wine at the
communion table. He had contracted.
@ strong liking for wine when a..
student, had become so much the vic
tim of it that he judged total absti-
nence his only safeguard, had been.
tempted again and again by the
sacramental cup. and had finally
declined to put himself in the way
OF temptation by refusing the cup alto
gether. There is nothing unphilo--
sophical about this. The appetite for
drink once contracted, even when.
fairly mastered, is not necessarily en-
tirely eradicated. 1t may be, like a.
trained wild beast, only harmless till
the opportunity and temptation to be
ravenous occurs, and then it asserts
itself with all the old-time domoniac
tiercencss The very dubiousness Of
the risk incurred by temptable na-
lures tampering with the wine is o..
sufficient reason for his refusal to thus.
expose himself. The end of the COM,
munion is sacramental. 1t may also.

fusal to be tempted by fermented'

Real Reformation,

The honest and intelligent worker
in reform believes that real reforma-.
ton means action; that no one ever
reformed who did not forsake the,
causes which kept him depraved and
sinful; that the reformed man must
maintain an active and vigorous war
fare against the enemy that betrays,
him into infamy; that he must be,
cheerful and high-spirited; that he
must turn his back upon the saloon
and face away from temptations; that
he must covet the good things that are
in the good mans heart and repulse.
the evil things that follow corrupt.
associations; that he can not love and
follow Gods commands and live in low
and vulgar dissipation; that he must
be watchful of his appetite lest he put
into his stomach that which Will
open the floodgates of the devil and
engulf the soul by destroying the body
that he must love and educate his
family; that he must be humane,
and generous toward the weak and
feeble; that he must be honest and in
dustrious. For no man can reform if
he be not honest with himself and those.
around him. He must get close to.

every where. THE WdShtngtOnidn.
