THE PLEDGE.

By G. B. S.

We believe the teetotal pledge to be a source of strength in the time of temptation. When the temptation is upon us, our appetites are urging us to indulge, and we are surrounded by those who use the poisons, with but little time to recall the evidences of the injuries to be sustained by indulgence, it is a poor time to decide aright. If we have fully decided the matter in our minds before, when the temptation presents itself, it finds no entertainment. Fathers, mothers, sign the pledge yourselves, and get your children to sign it, and thus protect them when temptations are pressing hard upon them.
G. B. S.
