bis life and character. His sermons
are powerful in their simplicity, earn
estness and sincerity. He makes i,'
pretenses, but breaches the simple
story of the cross simply, pleadingiy'
sweetly, gently. With him there ~ ''''
excitement, no ranting. He warns
forciblv, without hypOcricy, truthinl'!
fearfuIy and fearle:,ly; but picW'S
more teDderly and lovingly to the s:h
per to turn and look. If be "ccasion-
ally uses hsrsh word it is because nc
ooeys the command OF his Master /" %
''cry aloud and spare not" and to zen
the people Of their sins-he oh'y
demonstrates the figure Of the l"",
edged sword. He is broad aud iihcra'
in his views, and couIbiues common,
sense with knowledge and wonderiui
familiarity of the Bible. he u ~
tensely religious, without being fahml-
ical. bigoted or na-roW-minded IN lhe
least. He is surely the ideal man .,
God, "a Iegate Of the skies" cI"then
with divine authority to preach trutn
to wicked and perverse generation
Endowed with wisdom from on hi4',,
ard imbued with the very essence o'
piety, be breaches With SUCH IHce'
such naturalnesa, such graceiuine07
without self-consciOusuess, sucn WIZ
someuess, that men, women ana c'li'-
dren. Of all cla.res and condltoIh'
drink in the sentences that flow IRON,
his lips. People look into each otLefS
faces as the preacher closes the Sacred
Book from which he has been transI
mitting the intelligence and beauty o'
heaven and the glory Of immortality
and see in each others looks feelings
of wonder that the old story should De
yet 50 new To them.
Mr. Pearson's arguments are Iog'ca''
clear and convincing, and hia coDclu-
sions reasonable and Irresistible. We
like bis preaching so much that we We
have no desire TO pick flaw 10 any OF
his sermons, if We could. The leDgtn
Of this article ano the space OF the pa
per forbid synopsis Of these serno1s'
wbics we would like To give. we
wish it were possible To reproduce al
rhe strong points Of the series. 1ney
were a feast of reason and flow OF
soul"
