In this connection there is n question in
my mind, why tho B. & Q. wants to cross
Market street at grade now, when a shot
time ago it was generally understood that
It was immensely pleased with being al.
lowed to raise the Market street bridge
and 80 underneath. What's that? Its
certain property wner that want the
road to cross at grade? Oh! yes, Of course,
the petition presented to Council recently
was signed by property owners, but mark
my word, the B. l. U. was behind them.
1t wouldn't cost 50 much to cross at grade
very likely, but is that the reason? Has
it occurred to You, that il the contem.
plated line is completed the B.&O. must
OF necessity build u new passenger depot

Praising God,

Most of the sneers at Christianity
arise from total misconception of its
truths. For example, none is more
effective as an appeal at once. to the
reason and to ridicule, than this-that
God is represented by Christianity as
delighting in f1attery-in the praise
and adulation of his creatures. And
in support of this there is the univer-
sal fact that the prayers and songs of
Christians are full of aspirations of
praise, and that these are every ~ here
regarded as pleasing to God. Hence
it is inferred that Christians believe
that God loves flattery. This is a
stinging sneer at the Christians sup
posed, but falsely supposed, cOncep-
ton of God. If it were true, it would
show that the Christians idea of God
and of his worship is unworthy not
only to God, but unworthy of upright
and candid men ; the truth, as every
Christian knows, is this: The Chris.
tian feels himself to be under infinite
obligations to God. He is sometimes
so overwhelmed with the sense of
obligation, and so filled with love and
gratitude to the infinitely loving
Father that his tongue is dumb.
What can he say or what can he do ?
"What shall l render unto the Lord
for all his gifts to me?" He has
nothing to offer that God has not
given him-nothing that God needs.
What can he do but utter, as best he
can, in feeble way. his sense of graf
itude and his love, in words of ado.
ration and thanksgiving? 1t Is not
the praise that pleases God-it is the
heart overlooking with love that
pleases him. 1t is because the heart
longs to be rid of sin and to be pure,
humble, grateful. and full of kindness
to all Gods creatures. Love always
expresses itself in terms of endear-
ment and where the object of love is
being so majestic as God, it must
express itself in terms of alteration.
The Christians desire and longing
prayer is that God should give him
something worthy for him to return
to God as fitting expression of graf
itude. Give me eternity that I may
serve Thee adequately. Let me have
swift feet for thy errands. Use me
anywhere and in any way in thy
service. My highest honor and high
est delight will be to do thy will, o
Thou infinitely good, glorious, ma
jestic and loving One! That is the
spirit that prompts praise and thanks.

tions." "The time for such action, J"
II says, ''has not arrived" and con-
tinues: "The strength of the Prohi-
oltIon party is cOnfessedly inadequate
to make any approach to success.
The widest dreamer in the conven-
ton did not for a moment suppose
that he was nominating men who
under any probable combination of
circumstances would stand the slight
est chance of election" The argu-
ment that the intention of the party
is to show the strength of the prohi.
bItlon movement, the Methodist says,
only aggrayates the situation. "Why
should man stand clutching at the
moon to show how tall he is?" 1t
then goes on to say that there are
more feasible ways of accomplishing
the end. "The local option area of
the State of Maryland goes further to
demonstrate the strength of prohibi.
tion here than any vote that may be
polled for st. John or Daniel. The
very probable outcome of this effort
is to discourage Prohibitionists them
selves by revelation of their own
weakness"

Not Lost. But Gone Before"

mot lost. but gone BEFORE" is a
very common expression, yety its
true source has been almost wholly
overlooked. 1t has figured as an ep-
itaph upon grave-stones and has
been utilized by the poets and other
writers. The thought is, indeed, a
Christian thought. but the works are
the words OF a Pagan. 1t was the
stole Seneca who said, "Not lost, but
gone BEFORE" There is in his thirty
sixth epistle a remarkable sentence
in which we read, "Death which we
dread and shun, interrupts life, does
not take it away; the day will come
again which shall restore us to the
light, and which man would shun un-
less it brought back those who are
forgotten"
The meaning of that Is not that of
the Christian, and nothing else in
Seneca, so far as we can discover, can
be compared with the phrase under
consideration. But Cyprian. the
martyr, who wrote in the third CEN
ury, supplies US with something very
definite. In his discourse ION Nor
