A Serious Mistake.

By A. C. B.

THERE is one mistake common to many, and particularly so to the young. They cheat themselves with vain fancies, that when they are older they shall be better; that when they are men they shall find it easier to think of religion: that it is time enough yet. That "yet," dear young friends, has ruined many precious souls! To-morrow is the sluggard's motto: it is taught him by Satan. To-day is the Christian's watchword: it is taught him by God; even God who is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance here, and to glory and immortality hereafter.
