grand thing to go to sleep at night and

and He is bound to see me through.
The mountains may depart, the earth
may burn, the light of the stars may be
blown out by the blast of the judgment
hurricane; but life and death, things
present and things to come, are mine.
Yea, further than that-it means n
peaceful death. Mrs. Hemans, Mrs.
Sigourney, DR.. Young, and almost all
the poets have said handsome things
about death. There is nothing beauti-
full about it. When We stand by the
white and rigid features of those whom
We love, and they give no answering
pressure of the hand and no returning
kiss of the lip, we do not want anybody
poetizing around about us. Death IS
wringing of the heart until the tendrils

Christ shall be with us. confess to

where it was made and what it is.
When, then, ask you who this is you
want me to trust in, you tell me He was
a very attractive person. Contemporary
writer's describe His whole appearance
as being respondent. There was no
need for Christ to tell the children to
come to Him. Suffer little children to
come unto me" was not spoken to the
children; it was spoken to the disciples.
The childzen came readily enough with
out any invitation. No sooner did Je-
sus appear than the little ones jumped
from their mothers arms, an avalanche
Of beauty and love, into His lap. Christ
did not ask John to put his head down
upon his bosom; John could not help
but put his head there. I suppose to
look at Christ Was to love Him. Oh,
how attractive His manner. Why, when
they saw Christ coming along the street
they ran into their houses, and they
wrapped up their invalids as quick as
they could, and brought them out that
He might look at them. There was
something SO pleasant, so inviting. SO
cheering in everything BE did, in His
very look. When these sick ones were

there was a healing touch. They could

In addition to this softuess of charac-
ter,there was fiery momentum. How the
kings of the earth turned pale. Here

and kindness which throbs through all
the earth. and through all the heavens,
and through all ages. Oh, he was a
loving Christ. But it was not efiimi-
macy or insipidity of character; it was
accompanied with majesty, infinite and
omnipotent. Lest the world should not
realize His earnestness, this Christ
mounts the cross.
