would be cheaper, as mere matter of
economy, for most families to pay a good
round sum to the cause they wanted to
help, than to let wives and daughters ex-
pend themselves to raise the money they
do in this way.
Never, till the Church awakens to the
thought that giving to God and for His
kingdom is worship, precisely as prayer
and praise are worship, shall we rise to
the holiness of true and consecrated en-
deavor for the Master. So long as we
refuse to make our offerings matters of
conscience, and Systematically to bring
them, when needed, to the courts of the
Lord, we cheaper religious effort. And
as for the worlds people, who stand with
out but who give of their substance gener-
ously when we invite them to the tables
of the money-changers, possibly the same
degree of earnestness and devotion spent
in trying to win them to our Lord Him
self, would, even from the lower stand
point result in tenfold more enduring
gains Christian ut Work.

Merodaoh being, of course, taken by tn e

" Paper Sir H. Rawlinson suggests that
three rival religious sects existed in
Babylonia, two of which had their
centres respectively in the temples of
Bit-Saggil and Bit-Zida, while the third
were the followers of the god Hea, to
which the monotheistic Hebrews of Ur
belonged. He goes on to say that this
god was "often called God No. l by his
special votaries. He was the Creator of
mankind, the god of life and knowledge,
the Lord of Eridhu (the blessed city),
or Paradise, and exhibits many other
traces of identity with the Elohim of
the Jews. There seems, indeed, to be an
allusion to this deity being accepted by
the monotheists as the one true God in
the last verse of chap. iv of Genesis,
where, as | understood the passage, it is
said that about this name he a. e., Seth.
the Lord of Eridhu) began to be called
by the name of Jehovah. '" Sir H. Raw
llnson further suggests that Eridhu is the
Ihb, or good city, of modern Arabic
geography. Thib, situated midway be-
tween Susa and VAST, contains some
remarkable ruins, and, according to
tradition, was the city of Seth. Closely

Under of Cyrus has come the discovery
of another inscription of the same
monarch, which describes the history of
the last six years of the reign of Ma
bonidus and the capture of Babylon, on
the 10th of the month Tammuz, by the
Persian general, Gobryas, the representa-
tive of the king. No mention, again, is
made of Belshazzar. The inscription
further relates the conquest O. Media by
Cyrus, the king of Media Icing called
lstuvigu which is evidently the Greek
Astyages. Istuvigu, however bears no

the sons of God shouted for Joy. Yet its
vitality continues, and its power over the
human mind remains unwasting
1t is a large book. 1t sets its stately
front for two millenniums along the lines
of chronology, history, biography, philos-
ply, and human science. 1t challenges

CONSCIOUSNESS oFSIN.-When preach
ing can no longer speak of the sacrifcial
death of Christ, it becomes not merely
vain-it becomes altogether null and
void; and the office which is concerned
with this as its central theme loses not
only its reason d'etre, but all and every
possibility of continuing in operation
There is one feeling, and only one, IL the
human heart to which the preaching of
Christ may appeal with the assurance
that its voice will find response. The
morality of Christianity may excite pro-
found admiration; the light which Chris
tianity casts on unsolved problems may
awaken sincere interest in it, but that
enduring bond which binds the heart of
man to the gospel of Christ is connected
with neither Of these feelings 1t is by
means OF the oppressive consciousness Of
sin that the Father draws heavv-laden
souls to his Son, "The greatest evil is
guilt. Professor Steinnaever.
