Yes, sir! As you we're saying continued
Captain Fcster). sailors are a mighty rum
lot. That is to say. they used 10 be. when
there were any sailors. As for the coal
iheaving rainecks that ship as A. BIS
aboard steamships I DON CARL them sailors
at all. They know less about stiloring than
a farm hand along the Connecticut shore
used 20 know.
In the old days you'd find all sorts OF
men in a ~fo'c'sle, and some Of them were
as smart as they make them. I remember
one cha that we had aboard the old FL
della. of the Blsokball Line. the time I
was mate OF her along with Captain Smed-.
ley. that used 10 be in the China trade.
That chap wore out my mind more than
any sailor ever knew.
We were lying in the East River. waiting
for the tide. and likewise for the balance
of our crew. Sailors were scarce in New
York just then. and you had TO put up
with anything the shipping master might
bring you, and be thankful even II it was a
Dage who couldn't understand a word OF
English. and didn't know one rope from
another. / was talking with the Captain
on the quarterback. when a man comes aft.
looking as II he hadn't been sober for a
month. and wouldn't be in his right mind
till he had had another half-pint Of rum.
Beg your pardon. Captain" says the
man. holding on with one hand to the
edge Of the skyight I've been shang-
haied."
Sorry TO hear it," says old smedley;
but / don't see what business it is Of
mine"
But I'm not a sailor" says the man.
I'm a clergyma4, and I want you to put
me ashore before my family go crazy over
my DISAPPEARANCE"
III I was your family" says smedley.
I'D be more likely to go crazy IL thought
there was a chance OF your coming home
before the end Of this voyage. which. I tel
you csndidly. there ain't.'
But just look at it, went on the man.

Sixteenth street when something hit me on
The head and the next thing I knew found
myself in this ship and in these dirty rags.

drugged and Kidnapped. and unless you nut
me ashore you and. your owners will have

II I was you" says Smediey. Il wouldn't
indulge In no threats They're mighty APT
to come home t%o'roost, as the proyerb says.

master and your names on the articles and
you've had your advance. BY the way,
what might your name be-"
The Reverend James Wilson" says the
man.

William Thompson. ClerEymen don't lie

Don't you tell me no more lies. my
man. says Smedley. Just let me lock at

enough for any sailer. but there wasn't any
doubt that they did look rather too small
n too smooth.

Geel.iuc the Truth.

Nicodemus represents large multitude
of men and women in the world to-day
lie was seeking truth if not salvation tor
his restless soul. lie was so interested
that he did not wait until morning, but
came to Jesus by night. Some have sus'
gested that he did this not because OF h's
anxiety, but because he did not have the
moral courage to come to the unpopular
teacher by daylight. If so the oflensc was
not an unpaardionGbIc one, Tor Jesus Jesus a,o ,ha
not even rcbuke him. He welcomes the
coming of the most timid, the most
doubling. the most unworthy. Nlcodemus,
like nearly all the world who know any,
thing about Jesus. recognized HIS moral
supremacy. They know He is teacher
sent from God by the same test that
Nicodemus applied But that compliment
is mmaterial to the Christ. That ac'
acknowledgement has no saving value "Ex'
cept man be born again" is the ever
lasting sine qua non. the absolute and IT,
reyocable condition for heavenly career.
How could Jesus have made palmer the
necessity of the "New Birth" How is 1t
therefore that more than half the world,
more than half, perhaps. of nominal Chris
tendon, are persstently searching for
some other way. Why is it SO? The
world appropriates other common bess.
ings from Gods hands without demur or
question. His sunshine and sweet air are
taken greedily and counted good: Millions
have tested His plan of life, His way of
salvation, and rejoice in the experience;
They give us their word that they find
ioy and peace And yet the world is slow
to follow Is it sign of a perverse heart,
or constitutional incapaclty to act IN
ones own interest? Jesus was patient with
the slow believing Nicodemus. But He did
not have nearly twenty centuries OF
Christian testimony to bear witness to the
truth. That is why it will be less t.ol'
cradle in the Judgment for us than for
those of Tyre and Sidon and the genera.
tions that have gone to their reward and
doom.-Ram's Horn.
Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1902-05-08
Spear Points.

Conscience is Gods deputy in the soul. :.
Immortality is the glorious discovery OF
Christianity.
Christ reckons not by what is parted
with, but what is kept.
1t is weak religion that man can
hide from his household.
A conscience void of offensc before God
and man is an inheritance for eternity.
There is no human life so poor and
small as not to hold many divine possl-
bihty.
Humility is the altar upon which God
wishes that we should offer Him our sacrl-
fees.
The same spirit of faith that teaches a
man to cry earnestly, teaches him to wait
patiently. ,t
More dear in the sight of God and His
angels than any other conquest Is the
conquest of self.
No true work since the world began was
ever wasted; no true life since the world
began has ever failed.
TO love God is our happiness, to trust
in Him is our repose, to surrender our
selves entirely to His will is our strength;
When God designates our work, lie WI
give what is needed for its accomplish
ment, if we keep in touch with HIM.
