holiness, a throne OF justice, a throne
of universal dominion. We need not
stand shivering and covering before
it, for our Father says we may yet
one day come up and sit on it beside
him. "TO him that overcometh will
/ grant 10 sit with me in my throne"
You see we are princes and princesSes.
Perhaps now we move about incognito,
as Peter the Great in the garb Of a ship
carpenter at Amsterdam or as Queen
Tirzah in the dress OF a peasant wo-
man seeking the prophet for her
child's cure; but it will be found out
after awhile who we are when we get
into the throne room. Aye! VIC

PLENTY OF MUSIC IN HEAVEN.
Another room in our Fathers house
is the music room. st. John and other
Bible writers talk so much about the
music of heaven that there must be
music there, perhaps not such as on
earth was thrmmed from trembling
string or evoked by touch Of ivory
key, but if not that, then something
better. There are so many Christian
harpists and Christian composers and
Christian organlsts and Christian
choristers and Christian hymnolo-
gists that have gone up from earth,
there must be for them some place OF
especial delectation. Shall we have
music in this world of discords and no
music in the land of complete har-
monyi | cannot give you the notes
of the first bar of the new song that
is sung in heaven, cannot imagine
either the solo or the doxology. But
heaven means music, and can mean
nothing else. Occasionally that music
has escaped the gate. DIR. Fuller dy-
ing at Beaufort, 5. c., said: do you
