THE MERIDIAN GLORY COMING.

Christianity is rolling on, and it is
going to warm all nations, and all ma
lions are going to bask in its light.
Men may shut the window-b blinds so
they cannot see it, or they may smoke
the pipe of speculation until they are
Swallowed under their own vaporing
but the Lord God is a sun This white
light of the gospel, made up of all the
beautiful colors of earth and heaven
violet plucked from amid the spring
grass and the indigo of the Southern
jungles, and the blue of the skies, and
the green of the foliage, and the yellow
of the autumnal woods, and the orange
of the Southern groves, and the red o
the sunsets. All the beauties of earth
and heaven brought out by this spirit
ual spectrum. Great Britain is going
to take all Europe for God. The Uni
ted States are going to take all Amer
lea for God. Both of them together
will take all Asia for God. All three
of them will take Africa for God.-T.

WOMAN'S PLACE AND POWERS.

Unless all signs fail, the coming gen.
erations will learn to know, as no pre-
ceding age has ever known, the part
that women can play in the wide sphere
of human action; we mean, above all,
in the holy efforts of men to redeem
the millions of our race from ignorance,
destructive errors and terrible wrongs.
We believe that in the tremendous task
of purifying human society from the
moral, social, and political pollutions
that yet cover the earth as food, wo-
mans agency will become conspicuous
and most potent and triumphant. Our
hope for victory in the cause of right
justice, and purity, and the emancipa-
tion of individuals, the household, the
social and national order of things from
the dominion of great iniquities, and
for the Christianization of the world,
lies-always with God-greatly in wo-
mans powerful CO. operation. We rest
in the fullest confidence that we shall
not be disappointed.-C. L. L., in the
Standard (ChriStian.)

SIN, REWARDS AND PUNISHMENTS.
BY REV. G. l.. WAITE.

Universalism teaches that the dis
ease of mans moral nature called sin,
is the greatest evil of the universe, the
great cause of human degradation and
misery, the condemnation of the soul
whose spiritual health it has under
mined, and is the great barrier to mans
communion with his God. That it is
so great an evil that we cannot believe
being who is infinitely good, as well
as infinitely wise and powerful, will
allow its endless existence in his uni
verse, or would have allowed it as
transient incident in the souls expert
ence, except for the working out of
final good; that the memorable justice
of God is manifested in his dealings
with the sinner in the fact that there
is no escaping the just penalty of any
transgression, because sin is always
followed by those retributions which
inhere in its inevitable consequences.
The Universalist believes sin is an
evil so great that God will use the
severest instrumentalities if needed, to
turn the soul from its sinful wander
ings; that his relentless, pursuing love,
manifested in retribution, will not let
us 60 until we are brought to love and
choose the right; that it is for the pur-
pose of helping man to become victor
in the conflict with sin, that Gods
spiritual providence over man exists,
and that Christ's redemptive work is
done; and that the fact of Gods holt
ness, instead of giving ground for be-
lief in the endless existence of sin, and
the endless punishment of the sinner
rather gives ground for belief in the
final extinction of sin by the redemp-
ton of all souls from its thralldom. In
deed, Universalism teaches that the
infinitely Just and holy One, the in
finitely loving one, both because of the
repugnance of sin to his nature, and
his love for his children, and because
he has infinite moral resources at COM
mand, has doomed man to be sayed''
from his sin; that the more obdurate
a soul may be, the farther it wanders
from the right, then so much greater
must be the terrors Of judgment, the
pangs of awakened conscience, the
loathing of its spiritual uncleanness,
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1888-06-02

disease, that forms the chief obstacle
in the way of its removal and final
cure.
Men are prone to over-indulgence in
the things they desire, whether for rich
food or for gold, or for any other SEEM
ing good, and may go to their destruc-
ton in any Of these directions unless
guarded by enlightened reason.
The learning and skill of the doctors
is supposed to keep watch and guard
over all conditions of life and death
and disease, and to them is referred it's
most important questions. They de-
clare that certain contagious diseases
are in the air, or are approaching our
shores, and straightway the law directs
the ports to be guarded and all suspect
ed cases to be kept apart. They say
leprosy is common danger, and the
lepers are shut away at the public OK
pense; they direct the treatment of the
insane, and costly asylums are erected
and sustained for their comfort and
cure; they show pleuro-pneumonia to
be dangerous, and the law says: "Wipe
it out, even to the entire destruction
of all infected herds, no matter what
the money cost may be-"
All these dangers together, and
multiplied hundred-fold, must yet
sink into insigniicance compared with
the evils of inebriety, so fatal to its
victims, SO crushing to families, and SO
costly to the State. But when the
same distinguished medical skill shall
come forward and boldly and firmly
declare that inebriety is a disease and
only disease, that it must be met and
treated as disease, that the patient
must be cared for, restrained and
cured, not only as in the cases already
cited, but with infinitely greater care,
and still further, as a means of proven
ton, that the young who are as yet
untouched by its baleful influence
shall be educated in the schools to
know its true danger and to avoid it;
not merely because the law says so,
but because over self-indulgence in any
direction is hurtful, then, and not till
them, medical science and the law,
walksng hand in hand, may we hope
that inebriety may be swept from the
earth. Asylums, almshouses and
prisons will no longer be needed, capt.
tai will be turned into clean, legitimate
channels for the prosperity of the
whole people, and then shall come to
pass that heavenly era, the promised
millennium of "Peace on earth, good
will to men,
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1888-06-02

plans for keeping place in their
hearts. We will write our daily
journal with care, increasing care.
Some day they will discover in its
pages how tenderly and constantly we
thought of them when we were miles
away. We collect little memorials of
travel, which will adorn their modest
homes; letters which may some day
interest them we are careful not to
destroy. We even like to think-are
we too foolish in thinking so ?-that
some day the dear lips will murmer
softly and kindly, "This was the table,
with the big drawer of presents in it;
that, the ring which our mother wore
when she died; this, the pen with
which his last letter was written;
these, the pictures of the faces we so
reverently love-" They will be happy
and we shall be happy, and, please God,
we shall all be happy soon. A little
girl, at the close Of her first birthday,
after her mothers death, said, Father,
1 have been very happy, but it is over
SO soon." Typical lament. All things
pleasant and beautiful on this side the

boys and girls playing in the streets
thereof. Churchman.
