Oh. join him in the plain. As long az you stay up in the mountain of your pride you will get no help That is the reason so many never find the salvation of the Gospel They sit high up in the Mont Blanc of their opinionativcness, and they have their opinion about God, and their opinion about the soul md their opinion about eternity. Have you any idea that your opinion will have any ef- feet upon the two tremendous facts that you are n sinner. and that Christ is ready at your earnest prayer to save you.
 In the final day of accounts how much will your opinion be worthi Your opinion will not be of much inn portance before the blast of tho arch. angels trumpet When the life of this planet shall be thrashed out with the fail of thunderbolts nobody will ask about your opinions. Come down out of tho mountain of opinion ativeness and meet Christ on the plain, where you must meet him or never meet him at all, except as you meet him on tho judgment throne.
 HE IS EASY TO REACH.
 A Christ easy to get at No armed sentinel to challenge you No ruth less officer Co scrutinize the papers you present. Immediate response. Immediate forgiveness. Immediate solace. Through what struggle peo- pie must go to get n pardon from worldly authorityl By what peti. tion, by what hindrance, by what nervous strain of anxiety. by what adroitness. A count of Italy was condemned to be put to death at Milan. Tho countess, hearing of tho sentence, hastened to Vienna to seek his pardon. The death warrant was already on its way
 The countess, arriving in Vienna in the night hastened to the palace gates. Tho attendants forbade her entrance at all, and especially at night, but she overcame them with her entreaties and the empress was wakened and the countess pleaded before her for the life of her hus- band. and then the emperor was wakened to hear the same plea.
 Communication of sentence was granted, but how could she over take the officer who had started with the death warrant, and would she be too late to save the life of her hus. bandl By four relays of horses, and stopping not a moment for food, she reached the city of Milan as her hus. band was on the way to the scaffold. Just in time to save him, and not minute to spare, she came up.
 You see thore were two difficulties in the way. The one was to get the pardon signed. and the other to bring it to the right place in time Glory be to God, we need go through no such exigency No long road to travel. No pitiless beating at palace gate. Pardon here. Pardon now. Pardon for the asking Pardon for ever. A Saviour easy to get at. A Christ on the plain
