MONEY MAKING.

Both the wise and the foolish seek money
1t is sought for by many for what it brings
Some seek it simply for itself. In Egypt there
was an aristocracv of priests, in China of liter
ature, in England of birth, but in America it
is an aristocracy of wealth. There are some
things that even money cannot buy, but still
money enters into everything. Money is char
acter. The way a man saves or spends his
money reveals his character. You may see his
virtues IN money, and you may also find his
vices.-G. c. Jones, Methodist, Pittsburg, Pa.
SOCIAL EQUALITY.
Men never were and never will be on a uni
versal footing of equality in the social scale.
The reason is obvious. Men are not born with
the same Intellectual or physical qualities as
all other men. Some come into the world pos
sessed OF minds of great intellectual capacity,
while others are born almost into insanity
some are created with bodies that will develop
unusual physical strength others again are
weak and puny from birth. There must always
be classes among men. There must always
be the rich and the poor.-Archbishop Jansens
(Catholic) at Richmond, Va.
AMERICAS NEEDS.
The time is at hand when America must pass
out into the larger view of charity and Justice
when we must recognize our mission as q ma
ton. Questions OF wealth, of self-aggrandize-
ment have so filed our range of vision that the
principle of giving TO the world an example of
a nation filed with the spirit of ministration
has been too. poorly realized. Our literature
uSSuS ueW sp1CdllOu, our pO1lJlcdl ana social
economy needs new saving force in it; our
religious life needs something it does not pos
sess.-Rey. w. F. Slocum, Denver, Colo.
CATHOLICISM.
was once in terror of Rome, but by study I
am convinced that the danger is slight an
rapidly diminishing. Professionalism in the
world is increasing in membership twice as
fast as Romanism. / will never utter a word,
however, that will kindle hostility. Recogniz-

evident design.-Rev E. T. Root, Congrega-
tionalist, Baltimore, Nd.
KNOWLEDGE.
man may have all the knowledge that this
worlds life can give him and yet not be a good
man. knowledge will lift q man higher in
this world. Goodness will lift man higher in
any world knowledge will give man power
goodness will give man direction of power.
knowledge will consecrate mans intellect 10
get for himself, goodness consecrates a mans
intellect to get in order to give for the upIift-
ing OF otters.-Rev. Dr.. Egbert, Independent,
st. Paul, MINI.
PERSONALITY.
Men rally not around some fundamental
truth, but around some strong personality 1t
was not the abstract doctrine OF State rights
OF John c. Calhoun and John Randolph. In
the same way men array themselves under
their chosen leaders, who represent their ideas
IN living and powerful personality,-ReY. w
q. Partridge, Baptist, Scranton, Pa.
HER0ISM.
The true hero may be brave; not afraid of
anything that stands between him and duty
not given to counting the cost, but prompt in
doing right. He must speak out, on occasion,
against wrong, regardless of risk or result
even when the wrongdoers are people in au-
thority and the wrong one is despised outcast
of another nation or another sect.-Rev. 7. T.
Lloyd, Baptist, Philadelphia, Pa.
MISSION WORK.
Missions are worth to America all they have
/ cost, leaving out every estimate of their value
to foreign lands. They have proved their
value. To depreciate them is to condemn the
life and work of Jesus Christ, to dishonor the
heroes who in all the Christian ages have fol-
lowed in his footsteps. and to lower humanity
--Rey William T. Beale, CongreGationalist,
Brockton, Mass.
RICHES AND POVERTY.
Some people think it is sin to be rich.
There will be many rich men in heaven as well
as many in hell. There will be many poor peo-
pie in heaven as well as in hell. The question
is how did you get your riches, and how did
you get your poverty, and what are you doing
with it?-Rev. DR.. Stuart, Evangelist, Win
ston, N. G.
