What aped is there for tbem to do eo? They ire far better without the knowledge, tf Indeed they are sent to that scene of mis- iryand degradation by the providence Of God that they might uplift those who are in misery and degradation, and help > them to a purer and better life, then it ' • { #ould be right for them to run any risk ..%»order to do their duty. The doctor, ;; though he may carry hie life in his hand giost go where the small pox or deadly $•fevers are raging, bat the man who has 'V'4 ' Ao work and no cure for the evil is a ItX .,,., snadman, and not a hero, if he goes need­ le, \ ' lessly into an atmosphere laden with in- !%;• .' v lection. It is the old soldier who has" , been in many battles, and carries the, J,: pears oi many an engagement, who shel- !T%-$ers himself till the moment comes for the decisive charge. He is not afraid of ly- v ing down. It is the raw recruit, who has , never smelt powder, and who has never ; tad a scratch on him, who dare not be , iuppected of being afraid. And believe LJ ,|ne, young men, it is not a courageous thing to go needlessly into danger of a moral character. The bravest man is, in •jf\ this respect, the man who most distrusts bimself; who says, "Lord, turn away - .mine eyes from beholding vanity; keep thy servant from jiresumptuous siiis," for that is the man who in the moment when duty calls may go safely into the midst of evil, knowing that the Lord, whom he has honored and feared will be a wall of fire round about him.--J.
