shall make the construction OF a great
canal a beneficent thing for the nations,
means Of the peasants OF France. The
struggle IL now on to ascertain whether
the mills are to be driven for the sake
and in the name OF Jesus christ. The
struggle 10 on TO ascertain whether the
telephone Is to carry messages of mercy
or hate; whether the power In the teie-
graph line will be debased to enumerate
the works of the devil or the triumphs OF
love. Once a voice for truth hardly pro-
ceeded beyond the room In which IL was
spoken: now one true chord struck on
the human heart in England may be felt
around the world; IL will rever berate on
the Congo and the Albert Lake; II will
cheer the jewellers in the squalid huts on
Western prairies; 1t will reach he more
impenetrable Businesses OF a great city,
and by the inspiration of that voice men
will know that their redemption draw
eth nigh. Let not the president OF a
street railway, the manager OF a steam
ship line, the inventor OF valuable de-
vice Law his hand upon IL and say. "This
is mine" Ours Is ours for blessing only;
il is ours to be buckled to the power OF
spirit, just as
Our wills are ours, to make them
Thine! We have come upon times that
CALL FOR II SPIRIT oF PowER.
sThere are only curses 10 accompany
modern improvements unless we ascribe
them to God, use them for men, and sad
die them with the spirit. The questions
are ready to be answered clustered around
this. Will you allow the switchboard OF
the energy that Is in the world tn be con-
trolled by an anarchist, death-desling
spirit, or will you seize control OF that
switchboard for the hand that was pierced
to give men His health, His love, His
Immortality? -.
There was once a city gate which would
not open except TO q peculiar rap. Nature
holds secrets and powers the possession OF
which by the world today would be too
dangerous to be tolerated. We should be
constantly on the verge OF annihiiation.
Heaven holds energies. coupling which
with the powers OF the world, would
change it's face into the original Eden.
The portals OF nature and the portals OF
life, like the city gate, must be struck
rig htly. That man will open them who
shall smite them with the cross of Christ.
The world began with a simple, single
power. 1t will return TO that again. Ev-
| oiution is to be followed by involution.
After the highest organization we return
to the
RECOGNITION OF THE REA UNITY.
The latest suspicion of science is that all
chemical elements can be resolved into
one. Ii is more han a suspicion That
power of every nature evolves from and
involves toward God. Come back thou,
my soul, from thy studies, lay thy facts
and fancies at His foot who said "All
power hath been given me in heaven and
GU earth" Come back, . laborer; bring
your strength TO Him. Come, man OF
wealth, spread your belongings before
Him. Come, politician, compare your
| schemes with the outlines of the king
dom OF heaven, by which lone they shall
stand. Come, student OF laws, study the
constitutions Of God, laid liz immortal
love. Cast your forensic, your literary
crowns before Him. Come, launch your
ships with a dedication To Him. not 10
the God of wine. Built your bridges, your
machines in His name. Unity your
language in the alteration Of the Savior OF
mankind. Upon His head place many
disdems, that the power which is in the
skill, the lore and the genius OF men may
find its reason, its glory and it's peace In
Jesus my Lord. Until every lip shall say
as the hand lays down the implement and
looks on the work: Why marvel ye at
this, as IL by our own power we had done
this thing. Be IL known unto you,
that In the name OF Jesus OF Nazareth
doth this man-this finished work, stand
before you complete In Him!
