0nc Way Of Doing Good.

There are great many ways OF do
ing good. One may give money Ia
promote benevolent enterprises; one
may give time and labor to helping
along work among the needy; one
may give organizing talent, stimulating
woris, valuable suggestions. Many
who cannot hcl p III any of these ways
may do good by simply having q cheer
ful, willing, happy spirit i'll them.
With this spirit all who sec them or
feet Of them are infected.
Our poet Holmes says every lovely
woman has an atmosphere about her
six feet in diameter of grace, mercy,
and peace. Mere cOntiguity to such
il woman is Il blessing. In her atmos-
phere the sun shines, the flowers bloom
and send forth fragrance, and noNious
things hide themselves. The mosqui-
to of gossip, the serpent Of slander, the
gh0ul of detraction, shun her presence.
She docs good simply by being.
We have jars OF l'OtIIOurri in our
rooms 10 make them delightful to the
olfactory sense. Every ingredient in
each jar lends itself TO the effect pro-
duccd. We add one sweet odor and
another and another to hcightcn the
richness and dclicacy of the fragrance.
Each individual is Il jar of 2)Ot-pOeU-
ri. Every faculty, capacity, quality, in
him lends itself to the total effect he
produces upon his fellows. His good
qualities manifest themselves to the
spiritual olfactories; the evil ones
likewise. How we rejoice when we
perceive i good man, pure and true, Il
gracious woman, sincere and genuine.
We may never know their names or
their histories, but they photograph
themselves on our minds and lrearts,
and we think better Of ourselves and
more kindly Of our fcllow-men for
having seen and felt their influence.
They have done Us good simply by be-
ing.

War n Great Sabbath Breaker.

War, as is well known by all intelIi-
gent PERSONS, disrcgards the Sabbath.
That great and good man, William
Ladd, "of whom the world was not
worthy" says: "Christians should la
bnr and pray for the abolition of wal
because it violates the Sabbath more
than anything else. J believe more
battles have been fought on the Sab
bath by Christians, 81 called, than on
any other day. | never heard OF hut
one General in modern times who re-
fused to give battle Oh the Sabbath be-
cause he should break the laws of God,
and he was Il Roman Catholic. That
war totally disregards the Sabbath is
too notorious to require proof"
Many of the greatest battles of the
present century-which Christians
boast of as The century cf great moral
progrcss-wcre fought on the Sabbath.
Nelson's great battle Of Trafalgar,
the greatest and most destructive bat
tie ever known OH the ocean, was
Oh the Sabbath.
The great battle between Bonaparte
and Wellington, at Waterloo, Was on
the holy Sabbath day.
Tie balllC Ul New OTlcilllS, Ill Jauu-
AIRY, 1915, which cost the life of the
British commander. General Packcn-
ham, and made Andrew jackson Pres
idcnt OF the United States eight years,
was fought on the Sabbath. That bat
tie would not have been fought if there
had been telegraph wires acro*s the
ocean, as now, us treaty of peace had
been made between England and the
United States about two weeks before
the battle; so that battle did nOthiny
to bring peace between the two wicked
nations.
The first great battle Of the great
American civil war Dull Rum was
fought on the Sabbath day. And how
many other battle, were fought during
that war on that day, I do not now re-
collect.
My tcllow-C christian men, is it not
high time for you all TO arise and say ::
"No more battles on the Sabbath day!
No more battles in Europe or America
on any day.
