It's erribly hard 70 forgive him
For marrying out Of our set.
Sam Jones' Second Sermon in Baltimor,
Mr.. Jones announced his text as the
10th verse of the 18th chapter of the
Acts of the Apostles: Nov, why
Paul waited for them at Athens, hi.
spirit was stirred in him when he saw
the city wholly given up to idolatry.'
"To consider thing" said Mr.. Jones
means to look at it till you see it, moi
merely a glance at thing, but study
of it."
LOOK AT YOUR HEART.
"Did you ever look at your heart til
you saw it? You have glanced at it
The hardest thing fellow ever tried
to do in this world is to be good with q
bad heart. A man was once trying tc
cleanse out his spring. He was work,

ger came along and said, Say, look
there; take that hog out of the spring
and all will be WE'LL daughter. ]
Many man is trying to clear Tho
spring of his life with the devil wal
lowing in the fountain. Laughter.
Stop, brother, and put your eye or

other, and a reptile in the third.
Would you move in? Yet some o
