The Black Valley Railroad.-An i'm
pressive Illustration for the enforcing
of this lesson may be had from tract
written for sailors by Rev. stedman
W. HankA nearly a quarter of a GEN.
tury ago. The inherent force of tho
allegory contained Is sufficient excuse
for again bringing IL to public notice.
The road n advertised as the GREAT
CENTRAL FAST ROUTE from SIP
PINGTON to the BLACK VALLEY"
The assurance Is given that accidents
by collision are entirely avoided, as
NO UP TRAINS ARE RUN OVER THE
ROAD. Tickets over the same are sold
at all liquor shops. The route taken is
by NO means an attractive one. Those
who start out upon 1t have no idea OF
of taking q through passage. They
start at sppington. pass through Med
icinsville, and expect to get off at Tip
pletoA. but this train seldom stops at
Tppleton. It rushes madly on to To-
persville, sround Drunkard's curve.
through Rowdyville. and makes q
stop at Qaarrelton. After this the sta
tions are passed very rapidly: Riot

other stop is made, but the Journey is

tAs train slows up at Flood Crossing.

Its wrecks may be plainly seen strewn

that make The mighty ocean, the little
wine glass that brings men to their
stetnal ruin.
The other road Is as easily taken as
the Black Valley one, and all that is
worth while lies that way. One "no" Sc
cures the passage. 1t is the start, and
then the habit that is formed that ac-
complishes the work. And remember
that temperance is as much habit as
Is drink, and as easily formed.

Warning Against Wine.-The verses
marked especially for the lesson form
one of the best known and one Of the
most eloquent passages in the book of
Proverbs. They set forth the tempta-
tions of wine and the ruin which
yielding is sure to bring.-Verse 20
sets forth wildly the sufferings of the
intoxicated. The words "woe" and
SORROW" are EXPLANATIONS in the He
brew. We might translate: "Who keeps
saying: Obi and 'Alas!'?" The quar-
relsomeness, the discomfort, the bod
lily injury from trivial causes and the
muddled vision are all familiar char
acteristics of the drunkard, especially
when he is actually under the influence
OF liquor.-The process of drunken.
ness 10 described In verse 80. The manis
far gone in vice who spends much time
in drinking and ono of whose favor
ite pursuits is the invention or testing
of new ways to make liquor palatable.
Such wine as was known to the writer
of the Proverbs was SO mild at the
strongest that it required much more
effort to get drunk than is needed with
the use Of modern distilled liquors.
Yet even the comparatively innocent
wine Of that age fully deserved the
severe words which follow. Wine Is
attractive to the eye and the taste
". 3l), but its beauty is like that Of
the poisonous serpent, whose sting is
fatal. The rest Of the passage de-
scribes the way in which the sting be-
comes manifest. The writer men
tions Arst the strange visions which
the drunkard sees; then foolish and
vicious speech; recklessness; insen-
sibility, and persistence in the evil
course. He lies down IN the midst of
the Sea or on the top Of q swaying
mast with equal disregard Of danger
The last verse Is exceedingly dramatic,
and represents the druaken man as
speaking in his half-swaksned stupor.
The pGsssge says nothing Of the re-
suits to sthsrs. but gives warning of
the personal danger arising from In
dulgence. This danger is common 70
all who use liquor at all, though Of
course many seem 10 escape It.

Rams Horn Blast.

Tall trees need deep roots.
A traitor is not he who fails, but ne
who fees.
Except life be deepened its widening
will be It's weakening.
No man will ever be wise who is un-
willing to be esteemed fool.
1t is the touch of selfishness in our
ambitions that turns them to sin.
The Bible makes no mistake in de-
scribing the man who talks about its
mistakes.
Our sorrows may seem to wipe out
the stars, but they can never blot out
the Bible, our compass.
