LADIES HOME JOURNAL.

1t seems to me that in the present
state of the world, and in the present
state of life. it must be matter of utter
thoughtlessness on the part of persons
that would offer, on such day as New
Year S, to the young the means of in
toxication, knowing as they do, that
there will be MANY coming to their
houses who are not able TO resist temp
tation; knowing that many who, coming
10 their houses, and to scores of other
places, and being tempted to drink, will
turn that day into disgrace to them
selves and TO their friends; knowing the
unuiterable mischiefs that spring from
intemperance; knowing what torments
and evil experiences are going on about

out in my parlor whole box of adders,
saying: IF men will keep their eyes

they step, they will not be bitten. = And
yet / could as easily justify myself
for doing that as for putting VINE on
my table, and offering it to the young.
"At last it biteth like serpent, is
written of strong drink; but that is not

And let me say in connection with this,
that if Steno will accept this Book as a

The Reward of Faith.

The 1sraelites were commanded to visit
Jerusalem on three festivals. It happened
upon one occasion that there was scarcity of
water in the city. One of the people called
upon certain nobleman who was the owner
OF three wells, and asked him for the use of
the water which they contained, promising
that they should be reflled by stated date,
and contracting in default of this to pay a GER
tain large amount in silver as forfeit. The
day came, there had been no rain, and the
three wells were dry. In the morning the
owner Of the wells sent for the promised money.
Nakdemon, the son of Gurion, the man who
had undertaken this burden for his peoples
sake, replied, "The day is but begun there
is yet time.
He entered the Temple and prayed that God
might send rain and save him all his fortune
which he had ventured. His prayer was
answered. The clouds gathered and the rain
fell. As he passed out of the Temple with a
grateful heart, he was met by his creditor, who
said, "True, the rain has reflled my wells,
but it is dark, the day has gone, and according
to our agreement thou must still pay me the
promised sum-.
Once moro Nakdemon prayed, and 10, the
clouds lifted, and the sinking sun smiled bright
~ on the spot where the men stood, showing
that the sunlight of day was still there, though
the rain-clouds had temporarily obscured its
gleams.-zalnud.
