We ever had appeared at some Juncturo when

that neither time nor eternity can break,
and | viii warrant that many OF those cords
were tw listed by hands malevolent Human
nature was shipwrecked about fifty nine cen
turles ago, the captain OF that craft one Adam,
and his trst mate. running the famous cargo
aground on a saag ~ the River Hsddekel; but
there was Ut least one good trait OF human
nature that waded safely ashore from that
shipwreck, and that Is the disposition TO take
the part OF those unfairly dealt with. When
IL Is thoroughly demonstrated that some one
is being prosecuted, although at the start Sian
derous tongues were busy enough, defenders
finally gather around thick rs honey bees

set upon by the furies, you can have grace
enough 10 keep your mouth shut, and pre-
serve your equipoise, and let others fight
your battles, you will find yourself after
while with whole Gordon Of allies. Had
not the world given 10 Christ on his arrival
at Palestine very cold shoulder, there
would not have been one-half rs many angels
chanting glory out of the hymn books Of the
sky bound in black bids Of midnight. Had 1t
not been for the heavy and jagged and tortur-
Gus cross, Christ would not have been the adj

being who ever touched foot OH either the

therefore, Of giving up ia despair because
you have enemies, rejoice iii the fact that they
rally for you the most helpful and enthusi-
astic admirers In other words, there Is no
vruence, human or diabolic, that can hin
der my text from coming true: "A man that
hath friends must show himself friendly"
YOUR FRIENDSHIP MUST NOT BE A PRETESsE

owners Of one got one hundred horses and
