A bad accident occurred recently at the

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR.
Topic for the Week Beginning Dec. 10,
Comment by Rev. $. II. Doyle.

ToPIC.-Kept by the power Of God. Pet. 1,
l-5: John xvii, Ills.
Kept by the power Of God through faith
unto salvation. ready to be revealed at the last
time. Pet. ia.
The keynotes of our topical refer
ences may be expressed in two phrases
kept from the evil of the world kept
to eternal salvation. The first Is ex-
pressed in John xvii, 11-l5, when the
Saviour prays that God will keep His
disciples from the evil of the world.
The second is declaration of the apos-
tie Peter to those to whom he directs
his first epistle. In these two Bible
passages we are taught several lessons
in reference to our topic. To three Of
these we will direct our attention
L. The necessity Of being kept by the
power of God John xvii, ~. Il am
no more in the world. but these are In
the world. These are the two reasons
that Christ gives in his prayer why
God should keep those that had been
given to Him. He was no longer in
the world. While He was He kept them,
but now He is going to leave the world,
but the disciples are still in the world.
Since they are in the world and need
to be kept, and He is no longer here to
keep them He prays the Father to do
so. For these same two reasons we
should follow Christ $ example and pray
that God would keep Us and all the
household of faith from the evil Of the
world so long as we are in the world
,. From what and for what are we
kept by the power Of God (John xvii,
Is; Pet i, 81? These have already
been hiuted at. Jesus prays that the
Father may keep us from the evil Of
the world. This might have been done
this world, and ~ by keeping them
from the corruptions and sins Of tho
world. The latter is asked for by
Christ. Peter declares that we are 10
be kept for an inheritance. eternal in
the heavens, the result Of salvation
through faith. Thus Gods keeping us
does not make fruitless our endeavors
in behalf Of salvation Gods power
and man's faith are here combined,
which excludes the possibility Of our
saying, God is keeping me, and there
fore | need make no effort for saliva
tion. We are commanded 10 work
work ont our own salvation with fear
and trembling" God is tho author,
faith the means and salvation the end.
3. The result Of being kept by the
power Of God / Pet. t. 4, 81. 1t in
surrs two things: First, the inheritance
will be kept for US, and therefore 1t is
said to be eternal. and, second we will
be kept for it, No earthly inheritance is
sure, but this is. for God has reserved it
for VI. Nothing that We attempt alone is
certain Of accomplishment. but this is,
g for God keeps omforting thought,
our Father ke, ren for US and US
for heaven.

After a road is once improved it must
not be assumed that it will forever re-
main in first class condition without
paving any further attention to 1t than
to have a scmiannual gathering Of the
old men and young boys Of the road dis
trlct % work u out their respective road
taxes under the supervision OF the road
supervisor.
On the contrary, it will require good
deal Of care, and unless needed repairs
are made at the proper time the new
road may not prove as great an improve
ment as was expected. Parties who have
Travelled in Europe tell us about the
splendid highways Of that country, but
the fine condition Of those roads is not
due alone 70 superior quality Of ma
terlal or TO faultless method of con-
struction, but largely to the constant
care bestowed upon them by force Of
men specially trained and employed for
this purpose. From the foregoing II will
be seen that if we want TO have good
roads continually, we must abolish our
present road system and adopt such
methods a. will give satisfactory results

Increase of railroad mileage seems to
lessen interest in highways, but 1t should
not be forgotten that nearly all railroad
freight has been previously carted over
highways.
The use of springs on freight wagons
greatly diminishes the jot or falling force
in road depressions, prevents ruts and
preserves roads.
The effects Of wheels of large diameter
and width Of tire is to greatly diminish
spot pressure, and the breaking Of the
road surface is thus obviated.
The reduction Of cost Of transit Of per
sons and freight by lower prices for liv-
cries and for hauling would be benefi-
cial, and as transportation is large ele-
ment Of cost to every one not producer
good roads would much cheaper living
The cost Of transporting products or
Of hauling to market is by tenfold the
highest tax now paid by our farmers and

We are often told that the Bible is
not a scientific book, and that it bears
the stamp Of the ages Of ignorance in
which 1t was penned. As IA matter Of
fact there is not one book that was ever
written that has less OF that stamp. 1t
j. especially there that we see the mark
Of the divine hand on the Bible. Other
ancient books are uurcadable today,
Just because ideas are saturated with
the i'll and wrongly informed thought
Of the time. They are discredited and
often ludicrous in their faded trappings
Of once great authority. The Bible
keeps the place from which one by one
all other books have been degraded

shot down while trying to escape from the
guardhouse. He was 4 burly, big man
herce Of look and rough Of speech and
when they brought him into the hospital
he cursed and raved in way to make you
chill. He had received a mortal wound,
but death had no terrors tor him When
the surgeon told him that he must die
within forty-eight hours. he replied

He had been a wicked man. He boasted

that he might not die as q dog, but he
Knocked and cursed them We who were
watching for the end saw the shadow of
death when it fell. He realized that life
was ebbing, but still he cursed and revled.
An hour before he died the wife of a
wounded sergeant came TO visit her hUs-
band. She brought with her a little fair
haired girl of four or five years old, and
as she talked the child slipped away and
wandered up and down the aisles to inspect
the cots and their occupants. score of
US tried to coax her nearer, but she was
coy and bsshful.
When she reached the cot whereon lay
the bounty jumper, the pallor of death on
his face, but lighting the spectre away,
saw her, smile fitted over his face, and
the fierce light died out of his eyes for the
first time. He beckoned her to approach,
and to our great surprise she hesitatiugly
advanced until she stood beside his cot.
The mother rose up in alarm, but the nurse
whispered to her not to call the child.
"Is you sickf" queried the little one as
the man reached out his hand and touched
her golden curls.
"Aye, child, I'm dying!" he whispered.

As her lips touched his cheek the death

fell back, and he shivered and died.

The Importance OF G Good Found ations.


1t is a curious fact that the Swiss road
ways of today are really revival Of
Roman engineering, both in method Of
construction and in selection Of routes,
a return being made to it after years Of
mistaken experiments. Consul Adams
declares that the most important lesson
for US from European experience is that
the worst surface with good foundation
affords better road than the costiest
surface without foundation. No mat
ter how much money is laid out ON the
surface, the result will be swift ruin un-
less it is properly supported from be-
meath. But with good foundation the
surface may be Of gravel, or even Of
common soil if nothing better is avail
able.-New York Sun.
