have two Teddies to deal with--a good one and a bad one. The bad one is
your enemy. Now, you told me you were angry with that little girl. Are
you angry still?'

'I've forgotten all about her. I--I don't love her.'

'The bad Teddy in you doesn't like her, but the good Teddy will. Now you
must fight against the bad Teddy, and overcome him. Jesus will help you;
you can't fight without Him.'

'I think I know,' said Teddy thoughtfully. 'Last week some fellow said,
"Come and get some apples from the Park orchard." I wanted to, dreadful.
That was my bad self, but I thought it would be stealing, and I didn't
go. That was my good self, wasn't it?'

'Quite right! Keep close to your Captain. Our Officer always leads, and
remember--"Forward! no quarter to the enemy!"'

Then gazing abstractedly out into the garden, Mr. Upton added, as if to
himself, 'But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of
my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin, which is in my
members.... Who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God
through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the
law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.'

chose to make his observations, he looked round the table appealingly,--

'What's the very ugliest name that could be given a boy?'
