Incidence in the Christian life destroys
our only hope of heaven. The lazy man
is at bottom a bad man in the church or
out Of it. God cannot tolerate him in
His kingdom here or hereafter. The re-
deemed in heaven serve Him day and
night. We can hope to enter on that
service only as we are active here. A
teacher Of one Of our freedmen's schools
told me that one day as she sat at her
window she saw two negroes loading q
cart. One of them was disposed to shirk.
The other stopped. and looking sharply
at his lazy companion said, Sam, do
you expect to go To heaven Eyes. was
the reply. Then take hold and lift"
said the other There was profound
philosophy ia that remark.
There are scores Of Christians in our
churches who expect 10 go to heaven.
who would greatly increase their chances
of going there by taking hold and lift
ing some of the burdens which they are
letting their brethren bear alone. And
that believe Is the only cure for tho
sloth to which we all are liable, to taho
hold Of Gods work with the little
strength we have. aud with Gods bless
ings the exercise will increase our
strength manifold and by and by over
come the drowsiness OF sin. Examiner

Some of the enamel is put on with the
wire where it takes a primary color
but only small part goes on at this
stage. The next degree is a partial
filling of the background of the pie

furnace, another layer of enamel is
put in, and so on. each layer filing

fine-grained stone until every filament
OF the wire is brought out and the
enamel has perfect polish. All of
the work is done by hand. and it is
nothing unusual for man to spend
two or three years on fine vase or
jar
An American who has seen machine
made pottery poured out of domestic
factories is apt to turn from this illus

the commercial spirit that dominates
newer civilization and brushes all

A Christian Endeavor unlike any other
in the world has been organized in New
York. Its active membership is restrict
ed to the friends who organized the so
ciety and policemen and ex-policemen.
Its meetings are held every Wednesday
afternoon at $3.50 in the rooms Of the
Christian Police association. The EN-
blem OF the society is combination of
helmet, club and shackles which ex-
Roundsman Mead. who is president of
the society. interprets. We club togeth-
er as a Christian Endeavor to free the
policemen of New York city from the
shackles of sin
The popular idea of the policemen of
the city would not encourage much hope
in organizing Christian Endeavor soci-
ETY. among them. but the fact proves
that there are on the force many earnest
Christian men. who have neld fast their
faith and consistency Of life in spite Of
the fercest temptation. The special ef-
fort for the New York policemen. which
developed into the Christian Police asso-
citation, originated in the visit Of Miss
Quincy, an English lady. who mas made
this her lite work.-Exchange

ToPic. The danger of Becoming hardened.
Acts XIX. = Mark xvi. 9-lt
The danger Of becoming hardened or
confirmed III sin. unbelief OF opposition
70 God and Jesus Christ is a universal
one. It is one chat threatens the Chris
tian aud the sinner alike. a. we see illus
! trated in our topical references. It is q
danger against which the Bible constant
/ ly warns all men, and the terrible consc-
quences of which are wildly portrayed
I IN the sacred volume. Ia our Bible ref
erences we see.
|. The uubeiievers hardened Acts xix,
.. Saul is at Ephesus. Some believing
Jews are baptized and receive the Holy
Ghost. but certain others. who do not
believe, become all the more hardened in
their disbelief. They close their eyes TO
the truth, They will not see. They
will not hear. They resist the, truth.
They reject it. and thus become more
confirmed in unbelief This is always
the result of persistent refusal to bear
Gods truth and the rejection Of it. God
forsakes the unbelieyer and leaves him
alone in his unbelief. and thus He is said
TO harden his heart Thus it is also that
men become hardened in sin. Ia the face
of warning and prayers and entreaty
and tears, they persist in their evil way
until Gods spirit is withdrawn from
them. and.they are given over to a repro
bate mind. It was in this way that God
hardened the heart Of Pharoah of old.
by Withdrawing His influence from him
that would have made him act different
ly. Let us be warned against the danger
and neither persist IN unbelief nor actual
sin lest our hearts becomes hardened aud
ourselves forsalten Of God
The believer hardened Mark xvi. 90.
Ia these verses Christ upbraids for IN
belief and hardness Of heart. But it Is
not the unbelieyer whom he upbraids,
but the disciples who have been slow TO
believe IN his resurrection, although two
IF them testified that they had seen him
ince his resurrection. There is there
ore a possibility that Christian people
themselves because of their stupidity or
ignorance may become hardened in I'M
belief We have such an illustration in
he children Of Israel in the wilderness.
How often they were incredulous! How
,ften they doubtedl Their hearts were
in unbelief. and the writer of
Hebrews warns his readers not to be-
'ome hardened. as did their fathers in
he wilderness. Believers will also, If
hey persist in sin. have their hearts
hardened Therefore the topic warns all
gainst the danger of becoming hard
ned, both in unbelief and in sin Let
is heed the warning lest the terrible
Consequences Of hardening come upon us.
