STAND FIRM.

At the battle of Waterloo a certain regiment sent word to the Duke of Wellington that they must soon yield. The Duke sent back word: "Stand firm."
"But we shall all perish."
"Stand firm," again said the Iron Duke.
"You'll find us there," then replied the officer, as he fiercely galloped away. And they stood firm; every man of that brigade fell fighting at his post.
Jesus, our great Captain, calls on us to stand firm, to do battle against Satan and all his hosts. Will the young soldiers of the cross prove less brave and true than earthly soldiers fighting for earthly glory?—S. S. Messenger.
