three wishes met this morning I tell Won
what they would be. First: More of the
grace of God. Second: More of the
grace of God. Third: More of the grace
of God. In the door yard of my brother
John, missionary in Annoy, China, there
is tree called the emperor tree, the two
characteristics of which are that it al
ways grows higher than its surroundings
and its leaves take the form Of
a crown If this emperor tree be
planted by q rose bush it grows little
higher than the bush, and spreads out
above it a crown. If it be planted by
the side of another tree, it grows little
| higher than that tree and spreads above
it crown. Would God that this religion
of Christ, more wonderful emperor
tree, might overshadow all young lives;
are you lowly in ambition or circum-
stance, putting over you its crown; are
you high in talent and position, putting
over you its crown Oh, for more Of the
saccharine in our lives and less OF the
wormwoodl

| Tyre-the atmosphere of the desert
fragrant with spices coming in caravans
to her fairs: all seas cleft into foam by
the keels of her laden merchantmen; her
markets rich with horses and camels
from Togarman. her bazars filled with
upholstery from Dodan, with emeralds
and coral and agate from SYRIA. with
wines from Helbon. with embroidered
work from Ashur and Chilmad. Where
now the CLEAN of her towers. where the
roar of her cbar;ots where the masts Of
| her ships3 Let the fishermen who dry
their nets where once she stood. let the
sea that rusbes upon the barrenness
where once She challenged the admire
| t;on of an nations let the barbarians who
set their rude tents where once he1
palaces plittered answer the question.
She was star but by her own sir
turned to wormwood and has fallen.
