The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 45

Good Advice

Good Advice.

A Quaker was advising a drunkard to leave off his habit of drinking strong drink.

" Can you tell me how to do it?" asked the poor man.

" Why, it is just as easy as to open thy hand, friend," answered the Quaker.

" Convince me of that, and I will promise to do as you tell me, said the other.

" Well, friend, when thou findest a glass of liquor in thy hand, open the hand that holds it before it gets to thy mouth, and thou wilt never get drunk again."

This is a sure cure. This will keep every one of you from this great sin, and it will save your friends who are in danger.
