was called up 10 try 10 drive the sub
dued horse The lad took the reins
and everything was all right Then
the owner tried IL. and. for the first
time. had no difficulty in managing the
horse.
Another horse was brought In. This
was one that was easily frightened by
horses and strange objects. His sire
and dam had given him good blood. but
his early training had been defective.
The slightest strange object frightened
him, aud IL was not safe TO drive him
anywhere. When be was brought 10 the
tanbark Mr.. Gleason put on q peculiar
bride OF his own device. and drove him
about AS fast as he could follow him.
Mr.. Gleason carried a long swapping
whip. aud first taught the horse the
meaning OF the word Whoa" This, he
thinks. Is the greatest command in
borsemanship. AS he drove the animal
around. stopping here and there before
the boxes of the spectators. he said 1T

Tempted by Degrees.

John Newton says: Satan seldom
comes 60 Christian with great tempta-
tions, or with "A temptation to commit
a great sin. You bring n green log
and candle together, and they are
very safe neighbors, but bring few
shavings and set them alight, and
then bring few small sticks and let
them take aire, and the log be in the
midst OF them. and you will soon get
rid OF your log And so Il Is with
little sins. You will be startled with
the idea OF committing n great sin. and
so the devil brings you little
temptation, and leaves you 10 indulge
yourself. There Is no great harm in
this: mo great peril in that;" and so
by these little chips we are first easily
lighted up. and at last the green log
Is burned. Watch and pray that ye
enter not into temptation.

.nays We received the HOLY Gho.lq"

There is no truth which is more
clearly taught In the word OF God than
the assurance OF faith. v or the ''wit-
ness OF the Spirit" This is held forth
as the privilege Of every believer, for
the Spirit himself beareth witness with
our spirit that we are the children OF
God. Special stress was laid upon
this truth in the preaching and sing
Ing OF the Wesleys in the great re-
viyal that inauguratcd Methodism.
Methodism was born OF the Spirit. IL
was a work or movement OF the Spirit
from the very first. II had no mission
only as IL went forth, through its
preachers and converts, 10 herald the
mission OF the Comforter. Nor has IL
any claim TO an existence to-day only
as II voices the Gospel OF the Spirit in
the experience OF It's members and AS
the fruit OF the Spirit ennoble and
beautify their lives.
The question arises Is the work Of
the Spirit In his various offices un-
folded and enforced in the ordinary
pulpit ministrations of to-day as In the
former times, or rather in proportion
To the attention IL received in apos-
tolic teaching? DO converts. as they
come TO the door OF the church for
admission, give satisfactory evidence
OF genuine work OF the Spirit in con-
viction and conversion? Some do;
what proportionP What are the signs,
In social worship. In home life in the
whirl OF the worlds activities, that
Christians have a growing experience
In the life OF the Spirit? Paul says
III we live In the Spirit, let us also
Daik IN The Spirit
That means growth in grace, In
knowledge, in mastery OF the spirit
over the old self-life-the flesh
We verify believe that there is no
truth contained In Holy Scripture that
needs TO be enforced more frequently
and plainly than this we have just
limited at.
