VI what It will be when thoroughly de-
veloped.
There Is your resurrected body, so bril-.
liant that be monday sun Is q patch Of mid
night compared with It. There Is your soul,
70 pure that all the forces Of diabolism could
not spot 10 with an imperfection. There is
-FOUR being, 80 mighty and SO swift that
hight from heaven to Mercury or Mars or
Jupiter and back again to heaven would not
weary you, and q world on each shoulder
would not crush you. An eye hat shall
never shed . tear. An energy that shall
never feel a fatigue. A brow that shall
oever throb with pain. You are young
hgain, though you died Of d~ecrepitude.
You are well again, though you coughe1 or
Ihivered yourself into the tomb. Your
Bvery day associates are the apostles and
prophetsI and martyrs. and most exalted
Ioufs, masculine or feminine, Of all the CEN
turies. The A~rchangel to you no en-
barrassment. God Himself your pre-
m mi insts anti susf picture Of }G What y yna' may y
be. and what l am suresome Of you will be. II
you realize that 1t is an imperfect picture,

bur cradle and our grave we cannot accom-
plish much, but who would want to dwell
d this world for all eternityl Some think
his earth will finally be turned into a
heaven. Perhaps it may, but it would
have to undergo radical repairs and through
liminations and ,evolutions and revolutions

hrable for eternal residence.

In the Seventeenth century all Europe was
threatened with a wave of Asiatic barbarism,
Ind Vienna was especially besieged. The
ting and his coupt had fled, and nothing
sould ave the city from being overwhelmed
Unless the king Of Poland, John Sobieski, to
whom they had sent for help, should, with
lis army, come down for the relief; and
rom every roof and tower the inhabitants
" Vienna watched and waited and hoped,
Until on the morning of September IL the
rising sun threw an unusual and un-
paralleled brilliancy. II was the reflection
" the swords and shields and helmets Of
Iohn Sobieski and his army coming down
sver the hills to the rescue; and that day,
not only Vienna, but Europe, was saved.

Everything else go rather than let heaven go.
What a strange thing it must be to feel ones
