How Much Gospel DO You Represent.

We do not ask you how much of the
gospel you profess to represents; but
how much you really represent. II is
one thing to give intellectual assent to
the truth Of the ospel, but it is quite
different thing to know the gospel ex :
perimentally. Some unconverted men
believe (af!er a fashion) the Bible to be
the inspired word OF God; but what do
they know about repentance, saving
faith and regeneration? Now what we
wish to emphasize Is, that no Christian
can be said to know the gospel any fur
Their than he has experienced It, II you
have really repented of sin and accepted
Christ as your Savior you know some
thing OF the rudiments of ChristianNy:
but have you, beloved reader, s,opbed
to consider how much, besides these
essential elements Of Christianity the
gospel OF Christ contains? 1t Ia vastly
more prehensiye in it's provisions
for spirit, soul and body, than many
suppose.
Have you ever realized the next great
provision of the gospel, after one has
accepted Christ ss his Savior? This
provision Is brought to view in Luke,
1l:i3; John. Ala; 14:16, II; Acts, $3.50;
Eph., Sis. etc. Read and study theae
Scriptures prayerfully. and you cannot
fail 80 see that 1t is provided in the COS.
pei, that every true believer may be
habitually filled with the spirit. Are
you living in the experience OF this
blessed provision OF His grace? II not,
you cannot properly represent it to
others. You will stand in the way OF
others, and cause them very probably
20 fail to appropriate this all-im portant
part CT the gospel, II, as pastor, YOU
are stranger to this blessed expert
ence.
II Is impossible For you to properly re-
present this great doctrine, unless YOU
experience it from day to day. Then,
beyond the experience OF the indwelling
spirit lies the experience of the in.
dwelling Christi for 1T is impossible to
have Christ live and rule in our heart,
except we are first filled with the spirit
who comes to reveal Christ, and estsb-
lisn his reign in us, (see John l4:17, 90,
Eph. 3:16, II, etc. Now you know
that the doctrine OF the indwelling
Christ Is one of the greatest importancs
(see john $3.50; 1921, 80. Rom. so, 10:
Gel. l:l6; $40; Eph. 3:l6-19; John
l5:4-7; ii Cor. 1875; Col. 1:27. ETC.. etc u;
but how can you represent this doctrine
unless Christ lives and rules in your
hearl? Can you afford to preach about
this doctrine, while you are devoid of
the experience OF Bis indwelling?
Then, beyond the doctrine of the in
dwelling Christ 10 the doctrine OF Bible
holiness. 1t is Christ, living in us and
imparting His own life and nsture and
character tn US. that makes us holy.
We are holy only 80 far asHis character
Is reproduced in US; but just so surely
as lie has perfect control of the true

The Potion lack.

From the day he is born to the day of
his death no brush or comb is ever al.
lowed to be used on him, and as, from
the'unnatural condition in which he is
kept, he is prevented in great measure
from shedding his coat the functions of
the skin become suspended, and the ami
NAL gradually assumes year after year
an accumulation of coats, all matted
together with stable filth, till at length
they almost trail on the ground. When
he has assumed this extraordinary and
bearlike appearance, he is pointed to
with no little pride by his owner and is
termed bourailloux, or sometimes guen-
liloux. Such is ignorance and prejudice.

THE TRIAL OF puRAsr.
somo OF the Evidence the Prosecut
Will Present,

Bono OF the Evidence the Prosecution
Will Present.
I SAN FRANCIsco. Sept. 7.-The trial OF
theodore Durant will be resumed on
tuesday, Monday being State holiday,
During the pact week little progress
was made In the taking of testimony.
None OF the really important witnesses
ior tne people have been placed on the
stand, and no material points have vet
been against the defendant.
The witnesses who have alresdy tes.
titled are merely paving the way for
those go follow. While their evidence
Is Important in showing that the crime
has been committed. it does not point
IN the remotest degree to the murderer.
LIZ becomes more and more apparent
that the defense will be negative. More
hope will be placed in breaking the
chain of evidence presented by the
prosecution than in any Testimony he
may give in his own behalf.
AS YET the defendants attorneys havo
not been successful in their efforts to
confuse Witnesses and lead them into
contradictions. The res. weighty evil
dence upon which the prosecution de-
pended is to be furnished by three school
girls who saw Durant on the street car
with Miss Lamont on the day she dis
appeared.
Martin Qiinlan, an attorney, who
saw the defendant walking toward
Emanuel Church about o'clock with
girl who answers Blanche Lsmont's
description; Mrs. Leak, who, from her
house opposite the Emanuel Church,
observed Durant and Miss Lamont
walking into the church through a side
door, and Organist King, who about S
o'clock on the same afternoon was sur
prised to see Durant stagger tito the
library Of the church painting, partially
clothed and dishe volled.
It Is these witnesses who will furnish
the chief links In the chain of evidence
upon which conviction will be asked,
and the testimony which the defendant
will attack with vigor. II the defense
succeeds in breaking down one of the
witnesses, they consider they will have
fair chance for acquittal. The prose-
cution, they say, will have to provide
every one of the links in it's chain of
circumstantial evidence

SENATOR QUAY, of Pennsylvania, and
Boss Plat, OF New York, have, it is
said, entered into combination TO
knock out General Harrison in his plans
to secure the Republican nomination
for President next year, and, as neither
OF these distinguished statesmen have
any love for the man from Indiana. the
report ia in all probability true. The
two great political manipulstors above
mentioned, are said to favor Mr.. Rsed,
OF Maine, for President. but that dis
tinguished buffer and bulldozer showed
the white feather so plainly on the
financial issue in the last Congress that
ne has lost great deal of his former
prestige,and is likely to be overshs allowed
by some man of holder views and more
pronounced opinions on that question.

WHILE the President is looking
around fer successor to Justice Jack
son he should not forget Com ptroller
Bowler. His recent decisions on the
question of paying sugar bounty claims
have stamped him as one Of the greatest
legal luminaries of modern times, He
may not be we'll read in the law, but he
has way of arriving at conclusions
that greatly simplities the processes of
the courts. Besides, as he has already
taken upon himself some OF the prero-

land 1t would be as easy as falling off a
log for him to become full fedged
justice Of the Supreme Court.

paper men in London, and. as usual,
though not necessarily accurate in all
he says. he is interesting. He believes
that Mr.. Whitney does not want the
Democratic nomination for President,
and thinks the reason prominent Demo
Gratis are not seeking the nomination is
because the chances Of success are slim
All this Is, OF course, from Republican
standpoint and bears the marks of pre-
1udice. When, however. he speaks OF
the good times in all the countries OF
Europe and predicts great prosperity in
the United States for the next FIVE or
six years everybody is willing to believe

Is confident OF bright and prosperous
future for the Magic City and the great
Southwest. Real estate agents are re.

several extensive Gales in this line have

report more guests. and drummers say
they are making more sales than for
years.
The furnaces are all in full bias. and
new men are put TO work ut the
machine shops every day. Indeed, all
the industries of this city and section
are feeling the good effects OF renewed
confidence and increased demands. The
revenue collections from Roanoke for
the month Of August were larger than
for any other month in the past two

The prospects for another railroad

deficiency in this respect. The markers

accomplish wonders for the mere chance
Of success that is offered. They have
seen that "easy roads" to wealth are
lined with pitfalls into which the un-
wary traveller is almost sure to fall.
They have found that riches take unto
themselves wings and fly away, and
that it is better to keep part they have
than risk everything for large returns.
With such an experience they will set
to work to build up their own fortunes
by sure and steady processes and apply.
ing the same rule to the city and it's at
fairs they, will have in the end a pros-
