Taking the Wrong Boats,

Dwight L. Moody, in addressing
his great Bible class in The Ladies'
Home Journal on regeneration, H.
lustrates his teachings with this ex.
cellent story: IA Methodist minis
ter, on his way to camp meeting,
through some mistake took passage
on the wrong boat. He found that,
instead of being bound for relig-
ious gathering, he was on his way
to horse race. His fellow passen-
gers were betting and discussing the
events, and the whole atmosphere
was foreign to his nature. He be-
sought the captain that he would
stop his boat and let him of at the
first landing, as the surroundings
were SO distasteful to him.
"The story also goes on to relate
how, on the same occasion, sport
ing man, intending to go to the
races, by some mistake found him
self on the wrong boat, bound for
the camp meeting. The conversa-
ton about him was no more intell-
gible to him than to the man in the
first instance, and he, too, besought
the captain to stop and let him off
the boat. Now, what was true in
these two cases is practically true
with every one. A true Christian 10
wretched where there is no fellow
ship, and an unregenerate man is
not at ease where there are only
Christians. A mans future will be
according to what he is here pre-
pared for. If he is not regenerate,
heaven will have no attractions for
him."

some of those deep, narrow cuts that
we have to haul all of our produce
to market through, they would not
impose upon the taxpayers Of this
county by hiring some one to make
the roads ten times worse than they
were before. We are satisfied that
every farmer of this township would
rather hire them to stay away than
dig out an irrigation ditch, as we
have no use for it.
