Lcnten Pastoral.

The holy season of Let again calls US to
ing cares and activities of life, that we
my enjoy its manifold opportunities to
rise to a permanently niger plane of
Christian discipleship. The Church in
vites us, as faithful sons and daughters,
to obey Lent's call to 'come apart and
rest awhile" that by special acts of de-
votion and discipline, we may grow in
grace and become more like Him, who
offered Himself as willing Sacrifice for
our sins.
As we are about to enter upon this sea-
son of holy privilege, it is well that we
should seriously consider the question
how we may gain the greatest spiritual
benefit from the observance of these forty
days. Of themselves, all the increased
attendance upon the Church's services
and all the other means of spiritual i'm
provement can avail nothing. unless
there be an earnest personal de lie to
know more of Gods will and no less
sincere determination to follow in His
footsteps more closely.
This should be to us a special time for
determination and prayer. Let us ask
ourselves whether our religion is really
deep and sincere whether our chief de-
sire is to serve Christ above all else;
whether We truly deny ourselves and take
up our cross for His sake: whether we
are one year better prepared, one year
spiritually stronger, than we were last
Lent; whether we have been growing in
grace; whether we are daily striving to 6e
more like our Master.
Lent will be blessed season to us if
we thus hail its dawn, and regularly and
faithfully take advantage of all of its
privileges. We need it to stir up our
spiritual life and how earnestly we ought
to use it !!
Permit me to offer you few sugges
tions as to the proper observance of
Lent
To follow Jesus, YOU must know Him.
Read therefore the Lessons for each day
and the Gospel and Epstle for each week.
Study one of the Gospels Systematically
and read good devotional literature as
you have the opportunity. Attend, if you
can, all the services of the Church, and
receive the Holy Communion as often as
it is celebrated. Be more fervent and
more frequent in your own private devo-
tions. Pray for others as well as for your.
self Seize every opportunity to do good.
Visit the sick seek out those in need and
give to them; be considerate and gentle in
your own home. Strive to make as many
happy as lies in your power. Believe
more fully in His Sacrifice and promises.
Discover your bcsetting sin and determine
to overcome it. Try to put aside every
bad habit and root out every vice. Alb
stain from worldly pleasures and
places of amusement. Cruelty the flesh
and its lusts, by fasting and practicing
self-denial. If any are estranged from
you, forgive and seek reconciliation. Lay
aside something daily for the Easter
Offering, and let it represent and act of
denial and willing offering for Jesus
sake.
A Lent SO observed will bring you
real and permanent blessing and make
your Easter Mount of Privilege to your
souls.

RAILROAD NOTES.

The Warren Tidings says: Many
a woodpile of town has been replen-
ished by ties from the Lackawanna
Railroad. Tne company is putting in
all new ties throughout the yard and
the old ones are thrown down the en-
bankment and anyone is free to help
himelf. y The Central Railroad Com
pany requires all old ties taken from
the road bed to be burned up by the
workmen along the tracks. They thus
needlessly destroy what would be OF
benefit to many poor families.
