The Lord is My Shepherd."
(Psalms xxin )
BY ELIZA A WHITTIER.
As sang a king in olden times,
"Trie Lord my Shepherd ia.
So now my heart takes up the strain,
For I am also Hi3.
I ehall not want, for His ia good.
No blea3ing He withholds ..
From those who truly love His name
And keep within the fold.
He gives me rest. In pastures green
He makes me down to lie.
And by his hand He leadeth ma
The cool, still waters by.
Ha restoration gives to me,
My vigor is renewed,
And with His favor, grace, and love,
I feel my heart endued.
For sake of his dear name, He guides
In paths of righteousness.
And hy my side He still abides,
To cheer and love and bless,
When through the valley I shall go,
No evil will I fear;
For He will comfort with His staff,
And graciously stay near.
For me a table He prepares.
My foes I do not dread,
For gladness is poured as oil
With blessings on my head.
My cup is full, yea, overflows,
For guardUn aogels two.
Goodness and Mercy eti'l are near,
To warn and cherish, too.
"Aod I will dwell," so eang the king,
"In Thine own house, O Lord."
My heart takes up the sweet refrain,
"Forever with the Lord."
Forever in his Mansion bright,
And all His glory see,
And live with Him through ages long,
Amen, eo let it be !

True or Not, Which?
Life insurance knocks all the bless
ings that faith gets out of the following
Scriptures: Psa. 27; 3, 2, 5; Jer. 49:11;
Phil. 4:6, 7, 19, and Heb. 13 5, 6. If
these promises of God are good, we
need no insurance. If we make Matt.
o:19 21;Luke6:33; 3 Cor. 9-7; James
2:15, 16, and 1 John 3:17, with Eph.
1:23 true in our daily lives, God will
make the other scriptures true when
needed. When Christ comes, will he
find faith? If so, in what will it ba ex
ercised? Think.
To Our Legislators.
Now, it is a fact that a good majority
of the present General Assembly are
members of some branch of the Chris
tian Church. That means that they
are under some solemn vows to live
and work for the upbuilding of Christ's
Kingdom on earth. They are to do
ju3t what Jesus would do were he in
each one's place. What a terrible re
flection on the religion of Christ if the
present legislature ad j mrns without
enacting euch laws as will at least
greatly burden and lessen the evils of
the liquor tr&flij in North Carolina.
D. H. Tuttle.
Does It, Or Not?
D3e3 prohibition prohibit? Lot fig
ures answer. Last yer (1S96) the sale
of beer in high-licers i S ats increased
2.356,064 barrels over 1S95, while in
prohibition States it decreased 368 bar
rels Prohibition Kansas sold only
13,039 barrels, while high licensed Ne
braska, with 400,000 less population,
sells 161,317 barrels more than twen
ty-eix times as much. Strange that
liquor nun do not swap sides with pro
hioitionist if more l'q'ior was sold in
prohibition States than in Anti prohi
bition one3. Reader, fight strong
drink and save the boys and the coun
try.
Let them
1) so change the law that the grant
ing of license will be in the discretion
o County Commissioners, and also of
Commissioners of incorporated towns.
(2) Let the General Election law be
so changed that at least once in two
years the people of any locality can
have local option elections.
D H. Tuttle.
For You, Young Men.
How does it look? Go to the saloon
aext Saturday night; any young men
around there? Go to the gambling
iioles; any young men or boys there?
Go to the house of ill fame; any youDg
men there? Look after your Sunday
excursions and pleasure resorts next
summer; any young men there? Go
to the churches Sunday morning or
evening. Oae Saturday night a while
ago there were by actual count more
young men and boys in the saloons of
Ithaca between 8 and 12 o'clock than
there were the next Sunday in all the
churches both morning and evening.
Not one in ten of our young men be
tween 15 and 25 in the United States is
a member of the church of Christ.
Is each of the young men trying to
lead his companions to Jesus? Pray
ing? 8sudying God's word? Getting
ready to be teachers, officers, standard
bearers for Christ? Are they getting
enthusiastic familiarity with the great
missionary enterprise of the church of
God so as to be ready for leadership of
the sacramental hosts on their final
march to conquest of the world, when
the older hands and hearts shall leave
their earthly labor!
Are you as full of enthusiasm for
these great Christian things as you are,
say, for football and fun? Are you
carrying the banner of Christ high
and clear above and in the midst of all
your young gaieties? O, yes, I like the
boys' fun and sport and games. But
only Ohrist in the heart and the heart
in Christ makes fun holy, laughter
divine, mirth Christian, the game safe
and the j )y of youth superb, enduring,
a very grace of God. The Christ
within makes young joy beautiful, ex
uberant and eternal. The real Chris
tian boy is not old, sobersided and
goody-goody he laughes, shouts,
sings and is the very soul of the fine
game the hero on the field of manly
sport. But he ought to be, must bp,
if he be true to himself, his vows and
his Christ, the j -y of his church, the
stay of his Bible class, the light of his
prayer meeting, the heart's ease of his
pastor, the assurance of every Chris
tian hope for the future, a roundabout,
brave, earnest, happy and everyway
trustworthy fellow for every good
thing, in word and deed. If you, young
man or boy, be not true to your solemn
vows to God and your Christian
pledges to' your fellows and your
church, you cannot be relied on for
minly truth in anything. There's a
worm at the core of you, eating out
ycur heart, killing your integrity,
withering away your soul.
Oae thing only, now, out of all this,
I care much for you to remember,
which is that the whole earth and all
future and fate fall now, soon, into
your hands. Nothing is given you
in fee simple, but all in solemn trust.
All is in your stewardship. None can
share or lessen your appalling respon
sibility. You are the fate of the future,
whom the ages will bless or curse and
whom God will judge according to
what you shall have done with his
word entrusted to you. Better never
have been born than to fail what time
you have come to suih a kingdom I Sel.
I Reckon
that about the stiff est bit of read
ing, in any history, is at the be
ginning of the 29 :h chapter of Becond
Chronicles. It is biography, piety, phi
losophy, politics all at once,'in a gem
of prose as compact as the carbon in a
diamond, and as full of light:
"And Hezekiah began to reign
And ne reigned nine and twenty
years. ....
And his mother's name was Adijah. . .
And he did that which was right in
the eight of the Lord."
How is that for a political record?
How is that for a ''policy?'' What is
to be done about money? "light."
What about tariff? "Right." What
about civil service? "Right." What
shall be done to restore confidence?
"Right." What can be done to pre
vent strikes? "Right." What shall
be tho motive of the foreign policy?
"That which is right in the sight of
the Lord."
If God
were true in everything but gravitation
the universe would go to pieces in a
day. So, if a pastor is true in every
thing but politics, his ministry will
fail. The leader must be true, not half,
two thirds, seven eights all. Not per
fect he need not be that; can't be,
probably but he cm be, and must be,
true to the light, he has all of it.
Turkish Cruelty
has been been equaled by the atroci
ties of the fiend Weyler. This last
named wretch has a string of crimes
to his record long enough to hang the
whole Spanish nation and damn thrice
over those that authorized them. The
Liquor Dealer, Washington, D. C.
Perhaps Weyler has murdered 1,000
Cubans per month for a few months
We have seen no worse charge laid at
his door. It has been shown again and
again that your businees in this coun
try alone murders 60,000 people every
year, or at the rate of 5,000 yer month
at least Ave times as many as Wey
ley is accused of killing. People who
live in glass establishments should not
throw bricks at Mr. Weyler and the
Turks.
Power of Prayer.
Mr. George Muller, of Bristol, Eag.,
founder of the Ashley Down Orphan
Home, addressed the Western Union
of Y. M. C. A. 'a at their recent Annual
Conference in Bristol. Mr. Muller has
past his ninety second birthday, and
when he rose to speak, it was most im
pressive, even thrilling. He said that
he had had many thousands of an
swers to prayer within the last seventy-one
years. Whenever he saw that
he was warranted to ask for a blessing
he pleaded the merits of Christ, and
exercised faith in the power and wil
lingness of God, and he invariably
went on praying till he got the answer.
Every stone of the Homes was the re
sult of prayer; every particle of tim
ber was the result of prayer; for he
had never asked a single human being
in tho wide world for the 115,000
which the building alone cost. Tear
after year now for sixty-two years he
had been going on in that way, with
our asking for a shilling. In this way
he had obtained more than 1.000,000
"And you broke off the
ment?" said one young man.
