Yesterday afternoon in Appleton Chapel Rev. Lyman Abbott took for his text, "What shall I do to inherit eternal life?" He said: The young man who asked this question is the type of many a young man of the present time who does very little harm but very little good. I decided to speak on this subject today because I thought that my voice might possibly reach such a one. I could not expect this class of fellows to attend the morning prayers or the Sunday service, but the Vespers are so pleasant I thought they might possibly attend them.

This young man I refer to does not drink, at least in saloons, but does he do anything to close them? He does not jeer at religion, but does he do anything to make the world more religious? Is he doing or planning anything to make the lives of his parents brighter and happier, or is he making the most of opportunities to get an education such that later he may do his part towards keeping his state and country what they have been in the past?

Let him ask himself these questions; let him even write them on a slip of paper. If he does so I am afraid the space for the answers will remain blank.

In Boston and elsewhere there are many girls-yes, even newsboys-who are courageously helping to support their little brothers and sisters. Let this young man then to whom I am talking get a serious purpose in life, for what right has he or any other man to take everthing and give nothing in return?

During the service the choir sang the following anthems: I will Lay Me Down-O. B. Brown; I will Love Thee-W. B. Gilbert; My Soul is Athirst for God (the solo from "Holy City.")-Gaul. Soloist, Mr. George J. Parker, Boston.
