Let me use the safety lamp of prudence, make all the coup iugs in the train with the strong link of Thy love, and let my lantern be the Bible. And, Heavenly Father, keep all switches closed that lead off on the sidings, es pecially those with a blind end. O Lord, if it be Thy pleasure, have every semaphore block along the line show the white light ol hope, that 1 may make the run ot life without stopping. And. Lord, give us the Ten Commandments for a schedule, that when I have finished the run on schedule time, pulled into the great dark station ot Death, may Thou, the Super intendent of the universe, say 'Well done, thou good and faith ful servant,' tome and sign th pay roll and receive your cheel for eternal happiness " The .lumping (Iff Place.
