Roman House Hcntcrs.

Methods used by the Romans for
warming their houses were clever. In
Rome itself artificial warmth may have
been brought rarely into use though
the Italian winter requires fires at
times, but when the Roman took up
his abode abroad as the conquereOr he
certainly lived in chilly climates In
the country houses he built in England
he had carefully devised heating ar
rangements, which are called hypo-
causts. These are flucs running under
the tcssellated floors. Flres We're lit
outside of the house, and the hot air
passed under the floors. TO do thus
much required knowledge of the
builders art, with the necessary pre-
cautions against tire. Remnants Of
these hypocausts are found to-day in
England, built during the Roman oc-
cupation.

The church wants the best sanctiiied musi-
cal talent in tho world. How can II be So
cured? 1t must be willing to pay for It on
the same principle that II pays for pulpit
talent When the church calls for sanctined
musical talent.it will have IT, when Christian
men and women endowed with great musical
talent learn that the church wants them and
u willing To compensate them, they will offer
themselves. II our missionary boards could
send out with their missionaries sanctifled
musical talent OF n high ordcr-men and
women who could. with their single voices and
with great choruses, accompany and en-
phasizc the word preached-greator results

Those who have seen the effect OF Mr..
sankey's music may, perhaps, comprehend
what the effect would be II n great singer
like Jenny Lind or Melba could stand side
by side with our evangelists, our pulpit

COMMUNION srNnAY.

II Is not enough that we hnve great
Teacher to tell us how to walk IL Is not
enough that we have a great ENemplar who
puts footprints in the sand and lot us see
where our footsteps should go. We must
have Life -giver who will lay down His life
for us; and the love must be so grnat that
nothing IL counted In the balance against IT,.
But Il Ia the love that saves. And the blood
saves because 1t is the life and the love poured
out into hearts that needit. Christ is the door
through which the divine life enters
into the world. Christ's cross Is witness of
the divine life that il saving the world.
Christ lays down his life for Us. We are to
lay down our lives for one another. This IL
the simple lesson Of communion Sunday
Life poured out from one full heart into an.
other empty heart; from one joyous heart in
TO an aching heart; from one pure henrt into
n sinful and shameful heart. Lyman Alb
