The Pirate Flag.

!, The Haunting of the flags of the
Ilquor dealers in this city last
week, was equivalent to haunting
'ne friends of temperance of every
school. There were nine hundred
carriages, containing four each, but

protected by the government for

To the Engineer.

DEAR FRIEND:
You are an Engineer. To q Ger,
tain extent, every life on board the
train lie in your keeping. You un'
derstand as few Of your passengers
do, what steady nerves, what clea,
vision your position demands.
You know every dangerous point
along the road. You are Watching
for any obstruction that might en-
danger the precious lives of those
who 80 trustingly commit them
selves to your care. @
How carefully you polish and oil
the machinery: how proud you are
of it's beauty and strength how you
glory in your ability to manage
this magnificent piece of mechan-
ism how you handle it as lift were
thing of life.
Have you ever thought there is
within you a piece of machinery
more wonderful in its pent up
powers than the iron horse that
obeys your touch? Have you ever
thought it is driving you swiftly
and surely, either on the upward
road to life eternal, or on the down.

tion2 tt ~$ f,sA@4
Your heart is this engine. Do
you commit it to the keeping of
Christ as surely as the engine is
con6ded to your care? Have you
given it up to Him to be made and
kept pure and clean2 Do you say,
Guide me, 0 thou Great J ehovah y
and then, as the engine responds to
your will, do you trust Him to
guide your If you have not

To the Brakeman.

DEAR FRIEND:
Did you ever think when stand.
ing at the brake, how like q rail-
road train is the human life and
character?
1t Is SO much easier going down
grade, than up grade it is 60 much
easier to check q train on an up
grade, than on down grade. W..
The DEVILS tracks are all broad
gauge and down grade. ''Broad is
the way that leadeth to destruc-
ton" (Mathew 7-f3.)
The Kings highway of holiness
is narrow gauge and up grade,
Marrow is the way that leadeth to
life" (Mathew 7-14.) A7S
) Your appetites and habits are
the enginery that is bearing you on
ward. Your conscience ia the
brake the great Master Mechanic
has set within you to direct as we'll
as to control the speed of the en-.
CINE. '
If you have started up grade, you
will have need to fire up your zeal !;
the gravitation of human nature is
against you. Worldly influences
obstruct your way but the station
at the top is so fair with promise,
both in this life and that which is
to come, that it pays to make the
run.
Have you started on the down
grade? You don't wait till train
gets under Roadway, before you put
down the brakes. Don't let your
appetites and passions get control
OF you before you apply the brake
of conscience. If you have only
begun to tipple, put down the
brakes. Ii you have just begun to
use protane or obscene language,
put down the brakes.
The man of wisdom said, "Re-
joice, o young man in thy youth ;
and let thy heart cheer thee in the
days of thy youth ; and walk in the
ways of thy heart, and in the sight
of thine eyes; but know thou, that
for all these things God will bring
thee into judgment"
To tbs young man whom Jesus
loved, He said: "Come and follow
me-"
az will follow Thee my Savior,
Whereso'er my lot may be.
Where Thou goest will follow,
By thy grace I'll follow Thee"
