Ephesians 4:7 But to every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. It is said that in Derby resides Mr. Thomas Eyre, a veteran in the temperance cause, for forty years an abstainer and an earnest worker, but unable now to go out and labour, being paralyzed. In his window is hung a small board, with the following notice: "A temperance pledge kept here. All who are weary of drinking, come in and sign." "Yesterday," said our aged friend, "one who has long been a slave to drink, and in great distress, came in, and for the first time signed the pledge." This example is worthy of being imitated.
