What it is to Bear the Gross.

Let us have IA true understanding of
what bearing the Gloss is. He after
whom Simon bore the cross is now far
above all woe and WEAKNESS and pain,
and needs no help or comfort of ours.
We cannot even follow Him i'll person,
as He called the rich young man to do.
1t is in heart and spirit, i'll life and con-
versation, that we are to bear the Gloss,
not in an outward or bodily way. True,
even Outwardly the cross is Christian
symbol. But should the cross he made
an ornament of the person Should
the symbol of redemption, the likeness
of the cross of Calvary on which the
Lord of glory died for our souls, be put
on Just us brooch or bracelet Is put
on, and dangle from the neck amid
dance and song and light-hearted mirth?
Is this seemly or right Is it not rather
IL painful parody on the bearing OF the
cross ? Is not the cross too often thus
borne when the mind of the bearer Is
still vain and frivolous, and there is no
bearing of the cross in heart or life !?
The true bearing of the cross after Jesus
is to follow Him, in faith and love,
through all that his service leads us to;
TO give up all that He requires to be
given up; to undertake cheerfully what
ever He calls us to; to be willing for
Him to suffer shame and loss, to be
Knocked, despised, disliked, prosecuted
to submit cheerfully to all his dealings !;
to surrender our will to his will. An
outward and formal bearing of the cross
is easy indeed; such Il bearing of it as
this is not easy not possible for us, un-
helped. Yet this is what our Lord calls
us to, and He Himself will give us help
and strength. His grace is sufficient
for us.-ReU Il. BOurdilIOR.

by an anxious father on the occasion of
an interview with the principal of one
of our Hampden county academies,

still prevails. The boy in the case had
formerly been studiOus and promising,
but for several months had gradually
fallen off from his previous standard,
growing so careless and unschOlarly
that it became a serious question
whether he would be able to pass his
college entrance examination. 1t was
a coincidence that he had meanwhile
become conspicuous as a "ladies' man."
