gospel controls the world there is born
a new statecraft and new social order.
Every well ordered home is a center of
moral culture. The neighbor sees the
gospel and owns its power. This is the
evangellstic force Of example.
Some are driven to seek. not alone to
bless men, but to seek to bless those
most in need. This Is the missionary
impulse. When Bishop Taylor and his
companions carry not only Bibles and
tracts. but carpenters, tools and
the appliances of American civil
ization into the heart of Africa. and so
seek to minister to the savage wllds by
organizing a new paradise OF order,
they place before the African a sample
OF what Christianity is i'll its living
forms. This is the finest kind of mis-
siouary work of which | have ever
heard. The missionary is no longer a
courier from some ineXplcable heaven.
but living man, become nelghbor
that he may bless benighted brother.
The college settlements i'll great cities.
the various homes which are organized
in the midst of abandoned populations,
go far beyond the old mission room
with its uuattractiYe poverty, with a
cracked organ, and. a broken-down mis-
sioner bearing also cracked platitudes.
1t presents the unobtrusiYe yet all-poW-
erful force of living examples. The old
impulse of blessing, grown far finer and
nobler, has also gone deeper into the
heart Of human need, the church worker
has
Become IA NeighbOr.
This, therefore, is the moral standard
proposed by the gospel. The faith vim
dicates itself by its usefulness. You
are to judge your rituals, your creeds,
your prayers, yOur vigilS, your spiritual
struggles and your tears. not by the way
they make you feel, bat by the way they
make you act.

stream in search of trout, but in spite of
all his apparatus, often returning home
empty-handed at night. You may see
also an old fellow with white SLOUGH

Now. W hat the young fellow needs is
not the hickory stick; but what he does
need is the skill, experience, patience
and wariness of the old veteran. AS
churches and individuals, we are to in
herit the promise of Him who said to
the early fishers: "Henceforth We
shall catch men," Our improved theol-
ogies, our Biblical criticisms, our fine
churc hes, our boosted culture must at
last be judged by their results. If some
man with no learning, no breadth, no
opportunity, does reach the hearts of
men and win them to the beauty of
holiness, we need to learn the secret of
his heart of fire, his earnestness, his
conservation.

Two Kinds of Dust in the Senate.

New York Advertiser.
Z Senators have been for some time
complaining of the bad condition of the
air in the United States senate chamber
at Washington. The air has at last been
subjected to chemical analysis, and
1.-THE trouble has been traced to large
slquantity of dust. Steps will be taken,
at public expense, to remedy what has
g,been termed 1.-The evil" In this con-

States senate. Except in very rare i'll
fstanees it is only the men who have the

THE FLOODS WORK.

The GLOBES columns have been
crowded during the past week with
appalling stories of havoc and deyasta-
ton which the flood has worked in the
valley of the Mississippi and its trib-
utarieS. Fifty million dollars is too small
sum TO represent the loss and ruin
which have attended the rising waters,
and years of industry have been set at
naught by single night of storm and
tempest. The crops of Minnesota have
been seriously damaged. and farmers
are discouraged at the outlook. But the
important thing to remember with the
return of bright skies and kind winds
is that we have not suffered as have our
fellows in the states about and below us.
The God Of hurricanes has favored us
again; and. as in the past while other
sections were bligbted with famine our
fields have uninterfuptedly given their
increase, so now, while elsewhere settle
ments have been swept away and human
lives sacrificed to appease the angry
Deity, we emerge from the days of dark
ness and fear, little worsted, perhaps,
but with resources unimpaired, and with
the promise of complete restoration at
hand. Our lot, indeed, is cast in a
charmed land, which no experience
serves to Shatter, but which reneWs its
strength day by day for higher progress.

Moreover. he is in the possession OF large

Der of Parliament will hardly add very much
TO the worldwide distinction he has won by
his unexampled achievements IN the

years a member of the American press, during

So firm, straightforward and sensible man

unworthy of the reputation which he has Sc
cured in far different scenes.
