don't know much about the laws of

trate, or whether there's any practical diff
ference about the rules when great people
get mixed up in such matters. Nor do
know how long / slept on that bench, wait
ing for what was next to happen. L might
seem to be taking things easy; but WASH
at all. When | woke up it seemed to be
from bad dream, in which was everybody
in the world but one, and that was myself,
while myself was everybody in the world
but me. | fancied the door was once, and II
/ didn't swear out loud, dreamed that L
did pretty forcibly-or somebody else did, in
a way that was very much my own.
Anyway,when | woke up hadn't yet been
to Bow street, and to judge from the light,
wasn't likely to be there that day. 1t was a
bad, ugly afternoon, which seemed to have
been made expressly to tit me, and there
was fog in the cell. though it was july l
was getting hungry too; and L wasn't sorry
to hear the door open again.
II wish it wasn't against the rules to light
pipe,' | said. ''Tll have time enough to
learn to do without in five years.
However, when l looked it WASH a police
man I'd spoken to. 1t was one of the finest
looking fellows I'd ever set eyes or since l
left Dubin-as tall as myself, and though
perhaps not quite so broad as myself about
the chest and shoulders, still bigger than
most men are. I'd have been proud to try
fall with him, and wouldn't have backed
myself to win or lose. But it wasn't there
his strength seemed to be. He looked about
fifty years old; and every one
of the fifty looked as if it had come like new
strength to him; it would have been easier
for weak man, l should say, to meet his
arm than for false one to meet his eyes.
And he seemed to bear himself as you d
think general would on field of battle
quite easy, but not taking things less gravely
than they need. l stood up as he came in,
and we looked straight at one another.

Lord ordained that they which preach
the gospel, should live of the gospel.
And such seems the meaning of our Eng
fish version.
Finally, the very argument Of the Apos-
tie furnishes strong inference that the
1.-THE law was not then binding on Chris
tians. For he discusses the question of
ministerial support at considerable length,
and does not once refer to giving a tenth.
He argues from the right of all laborers
to a support: from principles of common
humanity, such as the law exacts for
brutes from the law that the priests
should eat part of the sacrifices: and from
the command of the Saviour. Is not such
an argument inexplicable, if the 1.-THE was
then the recognized law of the Church,
and the common usage?
To those who have been patient enough
to read these articles, / wish to say that,
though opposing the 1.-THE law, I believe
in giving to the Lord; and desire to say
something upon this subject in next
weeks paper. JAS. NJ. RAWLINGS.

DR.. Chalmers on Predestination

1t was during the winter of 1904 that
DR.. Chalmers delivered his four celebra-
ted lectures in the University of Edin-
burgh on Predestination, and wound up
his series by fifth on the pulpit treat
ment of the subject. In his lectures
he warned his students most faithfully
against the dangers into which they
might be tempted in dealing withsuch
sublime mystery. He said, Gentlemen,
we have entered on this great mystery
with regret, and we leave it without
sigh. The subject which we have been
treating professionally from the rostrum
you will be called upon to treat minis
terially from the pulpit, but remember
that the provinces are wide apart.
We are dealing with the heads of
our alumni; you have to deal with hearts
of sinners. Give me band of men who
never walked, as you have done, the
halls of University, whose only library
is the inspired oracles of God, whose only
tutor is the Holy Ghost sent down from
heaven, and let them loose on some wild
moral territory, and they will do more,
ten to one, than our college trained clergy
who must utter every truth and shape
every gospel enunciation according to the
rule and square of rigid orthodoxy.

THE VICTORY OVER DEATH.

When the spiritually minded Chris
tiap fixes his thoughts upon the glory
and happiness of the heavenly world,
and his heart glows with adoring love to
God and to Jesus Christ, he naturally
longs to be where saints immortal reign"
and where so many loved ones have gone
before. He forgets for the time, that to
reach that blessed home, he must pass
through the valley of the shadow of
death
And why should the Christian ever
fear DEATH or shrink from it, as some
thing to be dreaded? There is no other
way to heaven, and he need want no
other. "The sting of death is sin, and
without SIM there is not only no sting,
but a glorious and triumphant entrance
into that crest which remaineth for the
people of God, eternal in the heavens"
Besides this, Jesus has promised to be
with his faithful disciples, to uphold and
strengthen them in that hour with his
rod and staff, and with his help the vic
tory is absolutely certain To them it is
no clark valley" as we so often hear,
but a bright and beautiful door, the very
gate of heaven, just beyond which we
may almost discover the shining shore of
the river of life, which flows by the
throne of God, where Jesus has gone be-
fore to prepare place in his Fathers
house for each of those whose robes have
been made white in the blood of the
Lamb, where saints and angels sing and
hymn the praises of our great Redeemer.
"Hark2 how the choral song of heaven
Swells full of peace and JOY above;
Harkl how they strike their golden harps,
And raise the tuneful notes Of love.
when shall we Join the heavenly host
Who sing Immanuel's praise on high
And leave behind our doubts and fears
To swell the chorus Of the sky ?"
But alas to the wicked how changed
is the scene. They will not have the
strong arm of Jesus to hold them up, nor
his light to guide them, but all will be
dark, dismal, and horrible If the hid
ing of his Fathers face for little while
before his death, forced the blessed Sa-
viour to cry out in agony, My God, my
God, why hast thou forsaken me-" OH
how can hel pless sinners endure the trial2
There is no promise, no hope of victory"
to him, but certainty Of wrath and in
dignation forever and forever. He must
feel the sting of death" in all its in
tensity of pain and suffering without
mitigation, or hope of change for the bet
ter. O God may none who read these
lines be called to endure this sting of
death. R.

And from their tent-doors all their service done,
Came forth the Hebrew women, one by one.

And curious skill, and gifts beyond compare
Greater than old AIisraim's greatest ware
Had hidden that they approach at his command
As on a goat-skin spread upon the sand,
He sat, and saw them grouped on every hand
And soon. as came to pass, silence fell
He spake and said" Daughters of Israel
I bring word pray We, hearken well
Goods Tabernacle, by his pattern made
Shall fail of finish though in order laid
Unless We women lift your hands to aid"
A murmur ran the crouched assembly through,
AS each her veil about her closer drew
'Re are but lyon,ea !-lckat can Vomen do ?"
And Bezaleel made answer:-"Not man
Of all our tribes, from Judah unto DAN
Can do the thing that just we women can!

Of the priests robes-pomegrnate, knop and
stem
Mans clumsy fingers cannot compass them.

is bound to set aside some part of his
means, as belonging to God, that it is
Gods of right, and that we believe the
tenth part is not only not unscrptural,
but eminently proper. We believe fur
Their that it is every mans duty to keep
an accurate account of all that he gives,
and to study well what amount he should

A Minister Wanted.

The following anecdote is old but good,
and many of the present generation have
not seen it:
The people in one of the out-parishes
of Virginia wrote to DR.. John Holt Rice,
who was then at the head of the Theolo-
gical Seminary in Prince Edward, for
minister. They said they wanted man
of frst-rate talents, for they had run
down considerably, and needed building
up. They wanted one who could write
well, for some of the young people were
very nice about that matter They want
ed one who could viSit a good deal, for
their former minister had neglected that,
and they wanted to bring that up. They
wanted man of very ge'9tlema'aly depOrt-
me,,t for some thought good deal of
that. And so they went on, describing
perfect minister The last thing they
mentioned was, they gave their last min
lister $780, but if the Doctor would send
them such a man as they described, they
would raise another fifty dollars, making
it four hundred dollars The Doctor sat
right down and wrote them reply, tell
ing them they had better forthwith make
out a call for old DR.. Dwight, in heaven,
for he did not know of any one in this
world who answered this description; and
as DR.. Dwight had been living SO long on
spiritual food, he might not need so much
for the body, and possibly he might live
on $500.
