One of the worst temptations to
which the young are exposed Is that OF
vaCillatiOn. 1t Is hard to hold our
selves TO a set line OF action. We crave
variety. The routine of life grows mo
notonous, Change of programme
something new, because it is new, ap
pealS to us. The prayer meeting grows
dull to us because there Is lack Ct
change. Here lies danger. The path
of safety is not always in catering to
this craving for novelty. but better In
curbing our impatience and settling
ourselves down into the needful course
of training. We need steadiness and
cOnstancy, which can come only from
familiar service often repeated. We
need the drill in familiar manual and
not new tactics and maneuvers. Make
habit of daily prayer and Bible read
ing, establish the custom Of regular
attendance at the prayer and class
meeting, pray and speak and sing, hear
the sermon and spend your Sunday in
the right way, train your heart as you
would train your muscles. and your
constant practice shall bring its re
ward in greater efficiency and prof
cheney and freedom In Gods cause.

When to Repair Highways.

In repairing roads the time honored
custom of waiting until the road has
lost its shape or until the surface has
become filed with holes or rutS should
never be tolerated. Much good mate
rial Is wasted by spreading thick
conf over such road and leaving it
thus for passing vehicles to consoii-
date. The material necessary to re-
nlacc defects in road should be added
when the necessities arise and should
be of the best quality and the smallest
possible quantity.

Text, Math xiii. 4.-50.

AT the xOrd the angels shall come
forth and sever the wicked from among
the just"
However we may try to close our
eyes TO the fact, 1t still remains true
that wickedness never brings happi.
uess, never yields prosperity and Is
never more thoroughly ruined than by
its own success.
1t is also the greatest delusion TO
suppose that we can escape the just
consequences of our actions. Iowev-
er the love of God may be conceived, il
can never he made To overthrow His
justice. So we are ever safe in trust
ing in and doing truth and right and
never safe In any other course.
There are two detectives from whom
there is no escape. Conscience aud the
Spirit of God are never absent. No
hrihes can buy them, and no Opates
can permanently drug them. Peace
can never be purchased by any com.
promise with them. They are incor-
ruptible. Obey them, or they turn
against you.
our future is never safe unless our
present is right Any risk is too great
to run in these matters, since all haf-
vests sown Oh earthly fields shall be
reaped and gathered for eternal years.
Wild oats yield only wild oats.

by the farmers of that state, but when
they came To understand its purposes
and the value and economy Of pprma-
nent roads they changed their attitude.
They are now the strongest Kind of
supporters of the movement and the
consequence Is that that littlc state is
pretty well gridironcd with smooth,
hard roads upon which no money is
wasted in repairs and over which are
carried loads two and three times the
size Of those that could formerly he
hauled These highways now agglc-
gate over 44O miles, and onc-third of
the cost was borne by the state at
large, the county paying the other two
thirds.
There are sections in Minnesota
where clay or sand makes travel very
heavy and where with state aid per-
manent roads scientifically built would
add almost Il. much to the general
prosperity Of the section as the rail
roads. The folly Of being content with
system of communication between
the farm and the town and railway
station that makes the cost Of trans
portation two or three times what it
need be is made the more apparent
when one recalls the volume of protest
! that greets every suggestion OF the adj
vance of freight rates. Cheap trans
portation from the farm to the market
| is one of the chief secrets of successful
| competition and prosperity, and the
community that sees to it that it has Il
hard road passable with a heavily
loaded team at all seasons and in all
weathers will save far more in one
year than could be effected by any re-
duction in freight charges
Nor should it be overlooked that un-
der the present system in vogue in
most townships the building of roads is
absolutely wasteful Ramsey county
roads cost about $4,000 a year in re-
pairs year after year, and after the
first hard rain they are often in as bad
a condition as they We're before the
money was expended. 1t would be just
as sensible to dump at least half the
sum into the first manhOlc. If it were
not for the politics in the thing, the
system would have gone long ago. y
hundred thousand dollars carefully cX-
pended would give this county all the
macadam roads it needs and would re-
duce the annual expenditure for re-
pairs by onehalf.
The continuation of the present sys-
TEN, whether due to stupidity, want OF
Judgment or because a few votes may
be made by farming out the road jobs
Is a criminal waste of the money of the
people of st. Paul, who pay 9G pei
cent of the county expenses. 1t is Il
barrier to prosperity in the country
and a barrier TO that frequency of in
tercommunication between the urban
and rural populations which brings
trade to retail merchants. The board
of county commissioners made fan
beginning once. though it failed to in
slst upon as careful construction oi
the roads as it should have done. II
Is to be hoped that it has not aban
doned the project. If it has. it is time
the good roads advocates got together
md organized to secure the nomination
in the fall of men who will see thai
the city and the county get something
out of the money that goes into the
road fund. For the more rural coun
ties state aid law would prove 6
boon.
