When, therefore, proud Haman attempted to
compel an homage which was not felt he only
did what the world ever since has tried TO do
when it wouId force our holy religion in any
way to yield to its dictates. Daniel, if he had
been man of religious compromises, would
never have been thrown into the den Of lions.
He might have made some arrangement with
King Darius whereby he could have retained
part Of his form of religion without making
himself so completely obnoxious to the idolaters.
Paul might have retained the favor of his
rulers and escaped martyrdom if he had only
been willing 10 mix up his Chritian faith with a
few errors. His unbending Christian character
was taken as an insult.

top of churches as down in the aisle and the
pew and the pulpit that Satan tempts the
espousers OF the Christian faith to kneel before
him. Why was 1t that the Platopic philoso-
piers of early times, as well as Toland, Spinoza
ana bOllnEhroke OF later days, were SO madly

The lecture by Rev. W. s. Smithers
of Barre. before the Epworth League
of the Methodist Church on Wednes'
day OF last week, on youths Oppor.
tuni;les," was interesting and instruc
tive. The lecturer stated that the
present is an age OF large opportuni'
ties for young people, far in advance
of the past, in the line ofselfimprove'
ment, educatIonally and religiously,
az preparation for usefulness. The
need OF the age Is for trained workmen
in the religious as well rs in the
secular world, and the general organi'
cation OF young peoples societies by
the churches furnishes the best OF
OPPORTUNITIES for the religious train
ing OF the young members thereof;
while the Epworth League in its
udautation to the Methodist Economy
is the open door OF opportunity for the
Young people OF this church. The
lecture was happily illustrated by
we'll chosen incidents from the lee
turer's own experience, and from
other sources. The heavy rain OF the
afternoon aud evening kept many at
home from the lecture, as well as
from the honey supper which preceded
It. The financial receipts we're about

The interest taken by our people in
the matter Of having electric lights in
Island Pond leads us to hope that
such may be established here in the
near future. Geo. II. Fitzgerald has
made good offer, namely to supply
a power for four hundred lights, for u
term Of Ave years, at $3.50 per day.
There Is no need for Island Pond to
be behind the times.
