make it our servant it is curse when it
becomes our master. 70 ignore it, is to
act foolishly, to worship it is to commit
sin. The lore of money, not money, is
the root of all evil. Put forth all effort to
get it honestly, not for itself, but for the

money honestly requires work. The
world may owe every man living, but
he must work to collect it.
The drink habit is another danger in the
way of young men. Here lies perhaps
life's greatest danger. There are parts of
the sea more dangerous than others to the
navigator. About these dangerous places

danger. Above this reef of intemperance
which has stranded its thousands, l would

like men and remove this lurking death.
The dangers Of young manhood are IN
tensi6ed when we remember that the
mistakes of youth are to reappear IN
mature life. If in youth you lay wrongly
the foundations of life, the penalty will
surely follow. A bad foundation makes
cracks in the upper rooms. HOY, then,
can young man avoid shipwreck IN
life? How can he shun danger? How
can he cleanse his way? "By taking heed
thereto according to Thy Word" The
Word of God is the only lamp that shines
Word alone can safely guide us. Young
men need the restraints aud encourage
ments of religion. After all, christianity
is perfect manhood. They greatly err who
imagine that religion has to do only with
the gentler and passive elements of our
nature. Religion addresses you as men
''quit you like men, be strong" Her
hand is sinewy and strong. Religion
alone can give you happy youth and
happy age. To the young man she gives
something Of the mature, to the old man
something of the young. Some lives, l
grant, break forth into flower at their
close-they are like the chrysanthemum
which blooms when the year is dying and
the frost crystals hang upon the petals.
But love best the perpetual blooms,
which have flowers in the spring and
flowers in the winter. To be achristian is

Sin is slavery. Christ gives freedom. 1t
is grand thing to be free, to have con-
sciousness of superiority to surroundings,
to feel the sense of omnipotence that COM

of man has, however, in every age and

What Primative Man Ate.

Primitive man, wherever he was first
cast whether in one center or in more
than ono. must of necessity have found
his food in the plant world. We can
not imagine him commencing his ca
reer in the art Of hunting. killing. and
cooking the lower animals for food.
Many infer from this circumstance that
the argument In favor of the vegctari-
an practice is copied direct from
nature. signed and delivered by
her. Not quito SO fast. There is one
interposing barrier to tho free accept
anco Of vegetarian dcsd and act OF
conveyance of food from nature to
man. Nature herself. OF her own right
royal will. makes for animals. herbiv-
orous md carnivorous. one distinctive
animal food; q secretion from tho
living animal organism, fluid which
is a standard food-meat and drink in
one-the fluid known under the name
of milk. Against absolute vegetarian
ism. then. we may fairly set up one
exception derived from nature as the
unerring guide. On observing the
habits of animals We discover another
natural fact We find that animals of
quite different natures in respect to
primitive selection Of food. possess the
power of changing their modes of feed
ing and of passing over. as it werc.
from one class to another. This change
is distinct but limited. and we must
accept it with all its extension on tho
one side and with all its limita-
ton on the other. The fruit-eating apo
