Hert K p inf.
(Theodore L. Cuyler.)
Heart keeping is much like
bouse keeping. . There must be
continual sweeping out of dirt
and cleaning rubbish a daily
washing of dishes, and 'a prepet
ual battle with all sorts of ver
min. If heart-cleaning could be
done up once for all, then the
Christian might discharge his
graces, and hare an easy time
of it And just because the as
saults of subtile temptations are
so constant, and the uprising of
sinful passions are so frequent
and the task of keeping the in
ward man what it ought to be is
so difficult, many a one who be
gins a religious life gets discour
aged and makes a wretched fail
ure. The question with every
Christian is: shall these accursed
Amalekites of temptation burn
up all my spiritual possessions
and over run my soul? Shall
outward assaults or inward weak
ness drive me to discouragement
and disgrace me before my Mas
ter and before the world? Or
shall they drive me to Jesus
Christ, who will give me the
victory?
Good Road Did It.

Lifters.Jfot
Leaners
Are wanted in this great
work-a-day world, and so,
very early in life, you
should learn to become a
"Lifter."
One of tbe most effective
ways of lifting is to acquire
leverage through the habit
of saving; and this habit of
saving comes to those who
deposit their spare money
