Agitation. \Vhnt. the ton.ppninee cause most needs now is agitation ; but with T t Tg"sfftfttinn need's ■ t r r■ tte r f p H adage, “ Be sure you are right, then go ahead.” When taking a step in this cause or any other be suie of the ground you are treading; look at the matter from all sides,- and when the right is known do not falter. It is only by successive steps that anj’ good has ever been accomplished. No knowledge was over gained but by repeated at tempts. When any right under- taking is attempted, go through with it whether the world smile or froivn; Be not easily discouraged. Fornf habits of perseverance. Yield not to sloth and sleep and fickle ness. To resist all these will not be easy ; but you will feel that you have doue tight when your work is done. God iloes not direct all chu paths at once, but lie orders one step at a time.
