Half way TO the station he hears the shrek OF
n locomotive. and sees white clouds of steam
rising above the woods behind his house For
getful of the dignity with which he carries him
self on Broadway the commuter widens tho
stride OF his legs and keeps smashing his hat
down on his head to fix it there until it's rim
reaches his eyes and the top is battered far.
Just as he swings into sight OF the station. he is
repaid by seeing the train slowly pull out and
70 steaming down the track
When he reaches the Office two hours late he
does not relate any of these experiences He
does not tell how he had to wait a half hour for
the next train. which kept stopping at every
crossroad between Slumber Corners and the
North River He does not describe crowds OF
shoppers who piled into the train. and to one OF
whom he was at last compelled to surrender his
seat But should his partner ask him how re
likes country life in the winter time, he will
clear his throat. and say:
Pretty cold out our way; but it's mighty
bracinE air!"

Lesson Thoughts.
Every temptation mt and overcome

but increasing strength must moi
breed over-confidence. Let him that
thinketh he standeth take heed"
We may have boldness to meet
temptations and confidence that we
can resist them but 1t must BE- in the
way of escape that God provides, and
not by our own power or wisdom.
Men that are seeking to escape
yellow fever do not go to the tropics
Prove that you honestly wish to avoid
temptation by avoiding her haunts."
Selections.
After we have got the better of ths
tempter, we must do as the mariner,
in a calm. mend our tackling, as moi
knowing how soon another storm may
come.
cannot shape my way
Where nameless perils ever may be
tide.
Ger slippery sleeps wheieon my feet
may slide;
Some mighty hand crave,
To hold, and help. and save,
And guide me ever when my steps
would stray.
There was Greek fighter that
made this his prayer. "Give me light
on the field" Certainly half the bat
tie, as Bishop Huntington says, Is to
see the adversary. To recognize clear
ly just what our temptations are Is
one long step toward overcoming
them.
Some athletes are "overtrained. 4"
They are set to tasks that are beyond
their strength, and the exercise that
should add to their physical powers
really diminishes them. But human
souls that submit themselves to God
are in the hands of a Trainer that
r'nEes no mistake. He will not suf.
fer Us 10 be tempted beyond wnat we
can bear.
Prayer-O thou who art perfect in
holiness, wisdom and might. we come
to thee in cur weakness and ignor
ance and sinfulness, praying that thou
wilt supply our needs. Temptations
meet us, and we fall because we trust
in our own strength. which Is only
weakness. o help us rather to put on
the whole armor of God, that We may
withstand evil and live in purity ant
holiness for Christ's sake.
