Luther's Ink-Bottle

It is said that, on a certain occasion when Satan appeared to Luther, and endeavored to crush him under discouragements, Luther drove Satan from the room by hurling an ink-bottle at him.
At first thought it might appear that the throwing of the ink-bottle was a weak and almost childish thing to do; but the fact is that the ink-bottle was at that time, and has been ever since, the most formidable weapon that has ever been used against the great adversary. The printing-press has for centuries been hurling ink-bottles at the many fortifications which Satan has erected in this world, and clearing the highway for the coming of the Lord.
