The Lips In Winning souls.

The successful soul winner must have
a special quality in his speech. power
of spiritual impression that no elocution-
list or rhetor. elan can teach. Jesus had
it. While there was probably nothing
specially impressive in His personal APP
pearance it seems that when He spoke
there was Il at which people noticed at
once, and at which they inarveled luke
iv, %; John vii. 46). A verse of an old
song which was not understood until
Jesus came well describes it. "Grace is
poured into thy lips" (Ps. xiv, p. The
soul winner that has grace in his lips is
much like his Master
He will need the grace of a gentle
speech. 1t is delicate matter to unveil
faults and sins. Our sins are our own.
They bear our personality stamped upon
them. If we touch person in his fault
or sin. we touch him in his sense of in
dividual freedom. We seem to arrest
him. We do it, however, in order to
free and heal him. 1t must therefore be
done gently, as a shepherd tenderly and
firmly puts his hands ON a lamb in a
thorn bush, parting the branches care
fully lest he should wound and tear
afresh. Grace in our lips will cleanse
from anger. bitterness, impotence. la

WE ARE CONTENT WITH THIS.
From Good Roads,

have often seen illustrations of such
conservatism in a spot where an engi-
neef carried a wagon road half mile or
more along one side of high spur of
mountain and farther back along the
other side. An easy and even grade was
thus secured, but the distance around
the point is twice as great as that from
the place where the old trail leaves the
road to go zigzagging up over that
rough and rocky spur and down again
to the spot where that ancient trail joins
again the modern way. Sometimes an
arriero so far forgets to protest against
this violation Of the traditions of his fa-
theirs as TO permit his mules to go around
by the road. but a caballero in the sad
die neverl
Not that any time can be saved by
clambering up 400 feet to scramble AGO
feet down again. One could go around
the bend in less time and with less ex-
penditure of energy than isused in toll
ing over the ridge, but why should one
save time and the strength of his mule
in that land of manana, that happy fu-
ture to which are relegated all duties we
can shirk today
One whose brain is moved by slow
northern blood can conceive of only one
cause for so following tedious, difficult
and costly way when an easy and less
expensive one offers, and that cause is
identical with that which leads millions
of people in the United States to continue
year after year. generation after genera
ton. to use as roads the rough, dusty
and muddy lanes that are in place of the
highways they can easily have-and that
cause is conservatism.
Once in their chosen field, the advance
guards of our nation were busy in MAX
ing secure their holdings. Years passed
before the pioneers had much to haul to
or from their homes; therefore they
need care little for roads. Time enough
for making good roads when they would
be needed. They had got along with
others wanted better, let others make
them. If their children could not be
content with the ways and means that
had answered all purposes of the ia
Tiers, the children would be able to pay
for better. The labors the fathers had
done would help the young generation
to do that.
The makeshift ways of those days be-
came the habits of the new generations.
What was good enough yesterday will
10 well enough until tomorrow. We
augh at the manana of the children of
tropical America and put off to our own
tomorrow our own greater need and
luty. Therefore there have never been
n all this great land hundred miles of
'oads as good as those ancient Americans

Progressive In Most Things, We Are Be
hind the Age In Highways.
Man is conservative. To this hour
and in lands whose people boast great
achievements he is still content to use
roads that arc in rouSh-ess. IN F.cerness
and wetness what they were centuries
ago. He seems to believe-I do not
charge that he thinks-that continued
endurance Of ills he knows is easier than
the mental exertion required for learn
ing what are better ways and for screw<
ing up his courage to the point of adopt
ing those ways.
Leaders of reforms are usually de-
nounced by their own generation as e1-
tremists. 1t is necessary that to move
the masses as far as they should the
leaders must go farther. But Ca. Il be
shown that the most extreme of REFORM
ers has been guilty of persisting in blum
ders as wasteful, as costly. as absurd, as
those to which the conservative element
obstinately adhere?

Road. the Test of Civilization.

1t has recently been advanced in mag
azine and newspaper articles that one of
the best tests of a nations prosperity
and general progress in the march of
modern civilization is to be found in the
nature and condition of our common
highways. BY this it is not meant how
the boulevards, streets and alleys of her
large cities are paved and kept in condi-
ton, but how the approaches to the
cities, the turnpikes, the country roads
and the cross country cuts, which the
farmer must use in order TO bring his
produce to market, are constructed and
maintained
Judged from this standard, it is claim
ed that America is less civilized today
than any European country, and that
the United States would have been in
all essential regards more prosperous
than it is at present if in place of its
railways it had secured system Of
highways constructed and maintained
in the highest state of the roadmaker's
art. Many of its cities would be but
country towns, and the buffalo would
still roam over much of the country to
the west of the Mississippi. On the 9TH
er hand, the farmers would know more
Of one another than they 80 at present.
Though they could not market their
corn in Liverpool, they would still be
able to take it to mill without the sore
tax which the bad roads so generally
levy upon them, or which the toll taker
requires as the price Of a passable way.
In such "A well united community dis
lance counts for little against the duties
of life. The farmers could attend their
own meetings. They could do their du-
ty by their churches and have share in
the festivities which enliven and enlarge
their DAYS. On the contrary, where the
roads are bad all the duties of the citi-
zen and the social being are most imper-
fectly done. The people get in the hab-
it of hermit life, and the winter season,
which should be the time Of social inter
course, is passed in seclusion.-St Louis
Post-Dispatch.

/ topical references. is twofold. 1t is, frs +,
personal call to us TO accept the berA-
! - q salvation through Christ, ard. sec
ondly, call to spread the gospel among
/ all men. The first of these calls is set
forth by Paul to Timothy in II Tim. l.
9-l3. The second is illustrated by the
vision in which Paul himself was divine
~ called to carry the gospel of Christ
from Asia 10 Europe
l. The call to partake in the kingdom
of God Oh Tim. i, OLD In the ninth
verse of this passage Paul speaks of God
as having saved us and 'called us with
holy calling The Greek word here
translated ''called" in the New Tesla
ment constantly refers to the call to sal
walton, to partake in the kingdom of
God, which call is made to us outwardly
through the word and inwardly by the
influence of the Spirit working through
the word. This call comes to all who
hear the gospel. Paul does not mean to
limit it TO Timothy and himself. 1t EN-
braces all Christians. 1t includes all
men wherever the sound of the gospel
is heard. This is direct personal call.
II appeals to each one individually. To
answer it may mean suffering and perse-
cution, as in Paurs case, but like him
these things should not deter us from
needing the call, since we also can say,
81 know whom have believed and am
persuaded that He is able TO keep that
which | have committed unto Him
against that day."
2. The call to spread the gospel Of
Christ (Acts xvi. 10). Paul has just had
a vision in which man from Macedonia
in Europe has called him to leave Troas
and come and preach to them. In some
way he recognizes the nationality Of the
man. The effect of the vision was, as
Luke says. that Immediately we en-
deavored togo into Macedonia, assuredly |
gathering that the Lord had called us to
preach the gospel unto them" Paul |
and his three friends, Silas. Luke and |
Timothy, obeyed this vision. Four men
set out to preach the gospel to Europe!
And why? Simply because they saw the
hand of God in the vision. 1t was no
dream of man. but God was calling
them, and Immediately they obeyed.
God still calls His people TO carry and
send the gospel to the heather worlds.
They do not realize their condition and
cry to us, but God does appeal to us and
urge us to send the light where there is
now nothing but darkness. Since it is
God who calls us to mission work, all
should obey the call.
