How Ar« Vou
Qualis Vila linis ita, (as is the life
so is its end,) in these sententious
words the Untins express one of the
most solemn truths with which We
have to do. A truth that is perfectly
obvious, and none of us are deceived
and left to believe otherwise except *
.hat , , want . , lo beleive . . . otherwise, ,, . and
we
then give up ourselves to he led by the
deceiver to believe that the end may
bo something different from, the life,
For instance if wc see a twig bent
down, and growing . m . „ that bent position . .
we say that that tree will be crooked,
ind so it will, and there conies.a lime
when the tree will ho confirmed in its
crookedness, and then it can never be
straightened. We pass along and soe
hoys doing wrong and know that they
are neglected in right training at home
uni. we say those boys will grow up to
lie had men, and so they do, for the
boy is (lie prophesy of the man, and if
Ibis is so tiue of other boys is it not
equally so of my boy; how is it that we
can read ibe fearful doom of other? and
not our own? We look at the life some
people are living and we say they will
end badly and they do, and yet we be
eve, we force ourselves to believe,
1 hat wo can live other than a Christian
and die right, forgetting for the time
die awful truth “As is the life so is the
end." Just now much is being said and
more written on the subject of in¬
temperance, whiskey drinking, we
mean by the term, although it comes
almost infinitely short of the real mean¬
ing of (lie word, and too much can
never be said against the fearful curse.
Whiskey is one of the prime ministers
of hell, but were the old Latin words
which begin this article believed,
ilninkeness would cease—get a man to
believe that if he lives a drunkard he
will end a drunkard, and through
eternity’s endless duration remain a
drunkard—burn the words Qualis vita
finis ita, as is tho life so is the end, on
his brain and be will stop. So let me
very earnestly and personally put the
question to you dear reader. How are
you living? Never mind how one dies,
how did he live, all is determined by
that. No matter how long one has
been dead, whether one year or one
thousand years, he is today what he
was in life, what he lived, saint or sin
tier. Upright or crooked, was his life
I Tb ‘ Loud is still and forever
there, it is ineradicable. The solemn
words of Iloly Writ is “Let him that
is holy be holy still; let him that is
filthy be filthy still.” How then are
you living?
Parents how are your children liv
ing? for this is the bending time with
them and they will be bent by the evil
unless you are on guard all the time
and each day straighten out whatever
ot bend they may have received from
outside or inside iufluences. Are you
bringing them up in the admonition
and nurture of the Lord? Or, arc you
bringing them up to be gamblers,
drunkard*, outcasts utid ishmaelites?
They will in most eases be what you
make thorn—what you train them to
be. You not only select their vocation
or profession in life, but in large degree
you select their heaven or hell. Can I
impress you just here that as is the life
so is the end? Docs your children
know more about cards than they do
about the Bible? Do not be surprised
then that they become gamblers.
Gamblers are not made in the pool
rooms and gambling hells. No, they
finish there; they are made in the par¬
lors. Do you teach your children to
regard the rights of others? No! then
don't be surprised that they become
lawbreakers, criminals and end in the
peuitentaries, and oil the gallows.
Understand men are not made criminals
in the jails aud prisons; that is the end.
They are made criminals at home,
around our fireside. IIow then
you living before your children?
are you teaching them, or are you fail
mg to teach them? The result will
be the same. My friend John Gunn
has a dog that has been well trained,
aud “Jim” will be a pleasure as long
as he lives and all will like Jim, and
Jim can always find a home; in fact all
homes are open to Jim. Without this
training Jim would have been only a
worthless dog , that , uouc would , , , have
wanted—only iu the way, only a pest.
^oes training tell ou dogs and not on
b “>' s? So, G-rever no; training tells
wherever it is put. Your boy or your
? irl "»}' be hk « d and l°*ed b T every
one, aud wanted by all. and all homes
open to them or jour boys and your
daughters tnay be shunned and dreaded
by all and a bane of society. A 9 is the
life se in the end. .«
The dying testimony of people are
worthless, unreliable and not to be be¬
hoved, as has been proved world in many is
many cases. What the wants
the testimony J of the life; this counts,
( . |vo us thu and ln lhe distraction and
aberration caused by medicine and
disease, like many a one who has pre
ceded you, in your last moments you
may deny the faith and confess this or
that blasphemous doctrine. It will
no t count against you either here by
those who survive you or yonder by the
Judge of ail, bec&tne as is the life so is
its end.
Now I use the old Latin motto, not
for show, not to appear wise or learned,
only in the hopes that I can in this
way better impress and rivet the truth.
Take it then us your motto, write it
•where it will frequently meet your brain, gaze
and burn the thought Let oh your close with
Qualis vita finis ita. Crosby: me
eoinc lines from Ernest
So he dies for his faith. That is fine—
More than most of us do:
Rut say, can you add to that lftic.
That he lived for it too.
In his death he bore witness at last
As a martyr to truth.
Did liis life do the same in the past
From the days of bis youth?
It * s easy to die. Men have died
For a wish or a whim—
From bravado or passion or pride;
Was it harder for him?
But to live every day to live out
All the truth that he dreamt,
While liis friends met his conduct with
doubt,
And the world with contempt.
Was it thus he plodded ahead,
Never turning aside?
Then we’ll talk of the life that he led.
Never mind how he died.
Yours for eternal living,
C. H. Hyde.
