Christ, in his day, was so designat

world, its hope and consolation, out
of which has grown the grandest civ

is to-day the moral law of nations !;
it matters not where you 60, where
you find Christianity the ruling influ-
ence you will find civilization at its
highest, and wherever you find an
absence of Christianity you will find
an approach to barbarism. Calico,
when he advanced the theory that
the world moved and was round, was
branded as a fanatic and made to
take pledge that he would never
preach that doctrine again, and as be

pledge, in a subdued tone he said
'sThe world does move for all that. y

In the DAYS of the crusade God led
His people as by pillar of fire by
night and of cloud by day, COMPEL
ing the attention of the world. Scot
fing unbelievers were amazed as they
saw gentle and timid women, under
the power of the Holy Ghost, beseige
the citadels of Satan and take them
by storm. God is leading now. The
enlightenment of the mind and con-
science of the people, which He then
wrought so quickly, He has now
crystalized into deep, calm public
sentiment, demanding the repeal of
wicked laws which sell, for gold, in
dulgencies to murder bodies and
souls. 1t is beginning to look like
an awful crime for Christian gov
eminent to fill it's treasury with the
price of blood, aye, the blood of
souls. Give me, oh, thou fair god
dess of Liberty, every year hum
dred thousand drunkards with which
to people my realm, and l will give
thee fifty millions of gold in exchange.
And though Liberty has seen with
her own eyes, wives kicked to death,
children weltering in their blood,
crazed men stabbing each other to
the heart, prisons and aims houses
and insane asylums crowded, yet
year by she accepts from Satan's
hand this gold, dripping with blood.
And God is leading on, and win lead,
till His people shall say that this
horrible national crime shall be stay
ed forever.
| But while God is surely in this new
movement, yet there is danger of be-
coming so absorbed in the lega
phase of the question that the still
grander work OF preaching the saloa
ton to the lost should be overlooked
The gospel of the worlds Redeemel
is the mightiest lever with which t.
lift the world. There is no hope 70

in the hearts of His people to Civ

foe and if the God of love dwells il

cause men sell liquor and get drunk

friends of license.
Suppose we use the same argument
in other matters for instance:
Christianity doesn't Christianize,
because there are sinners in the
world.
Wisdom doesn't make wise, because
fools are still to be found.
Cultivation doesn't cultivate, be-
cause weeds still come up in the

THE CHURCH AND TEN
PERANCE.

Just before he was laid in the
tomb, in a speech at Washington
city, Vice-President Wilson said:
Probably we have 10000 church
es in this land, $4,000 or GO, 900 cler-
gymen at least, and 100000 church
members. The ministers of these
churches profess to believe that God
has placed US here to prepare our
selves for higher and better life.
They profess to believe that they
have consecrated themselves, all they
are, all they hope to be, to the cause
of the Divine Master. Now we have
in the United States hundreds of
thousands of poor drunkards. The
human mind cannot fathom the evils
and the sufferings the habitual
use of Intoxicating liquor brings upon
its victims. Thousands of the young
men of this country are going. head
long to ruin. Nobody can doubt it,
everybody sees it, everybody feels it
