your soul and plant your unshackled
feet upon the golden throne, Christ let
the tortures OF the bloody mount
transfx him. With the beam Of his

OF your dungeon. From the thorns OF

Power Of Temptation.
A man who wanted throne pretend

ii he was elected he would soon be
gone. He crawled upon his crutches
to the throne, and having attained it
he was strong again. He said, "It

for the scepter of another that
should stoop, but now that have

and was well again. How illustrative
of the power of temptation! You think
it is weak and crippled influence, but
give it a chance and it will be tyrant
in your soul; it will grind you to at
oms. No man has finally and forever
overcome temptation until he has left
the world. But what are you to do
with these temptations? Tell every
body about them? All, what silly

bruised and injured internally; Mrs.
Deyo, ankle sprained. A dozen or so
children were in the crowd, as well as

of injuries seems hardly proba BILE.
After the injured had been cared for,
the programme was resumed, Mr.. Met
