ECHOES FROM THE sERMoNs
What Topeka Pastors Said in Their
Pulpits Sunday.

TRUE CULTURE-The Christian
Women's Board of Missions has esta.b-
Ished Bible chair, the purpose Of
which is to furnish Bible Instruction
to as many of the three thousand stu
dents as wish to avail themselves of
the opportunity. The movement is
now three years old and is a great sue
cess. Similar steps are being taken
to establish like .'annexes" to the
state universities of several states
This is but an infant enterprise. vet
many thousands of dollars have been
raised and hundreds of young men and
women are now studying the Bible as
they study any other book, systemat-
ically and scientifically. A true edu-
cation consists in the equal develop
ment of the physical, mental, moral
and spiritual faculties of man. The
universities provide for the first three
which is right, but the last must not
be left undOne This the Bible chair
will supply 1t must be pure Bible
not theology. God made the flowers:
man made botany. God made the
stars; man made astronomy God gave
the Word man made theology. Sixty
thousand consecrated women are be-
hind the Ann ArbOr chair. Over a
million disciples in the United States,
in addition to their numerous colleges
and universities, will lend both money
and men to insure success in the other
states. Thus will we secure the high
est culture of body, mind, morals and
heart.-I2ev. ID. ID. Boyle, First Chris

DANIELS PRONOTIONS.-Da
first promotion was from liberty to
captivity, from home to Punishment.
This is not usually looked upon as pro
motion, yet it was the first step in his
upward career The oak roots down
ward in order to develop upwards.
Josephs first advance toward the
throne was into the dungeon. Moses
was promoted to 40 years exile as a
preparation for his high Office as eman-
cipator. We know but little of life's
beginnings. We hail the victor, for
getting that he came up through life's
successive promotions, each won by the
hardest endeavOr. The curse of the
age is the haste to reach the top of
professional social. financial or politi-
cal life. If there were more promotion
backward there would be more crowd
ing at the top Daniel accepted his
promotion gracefully. He recognized
in his captivity the hand Of a divine
Father. Circumstances We're nothing,
Gods viii everything. He would make
circumstances stepping-stones to ad-
vancement His motto, 1T is always
right to do right regardless of con
sequences. was the secret of his ao-
vancement. He displayed a moral
courage that shames many of US to-
day with all cur favorable surround
ings His fidelity, courage, industry
and gentlemanly bearing won him his
high Office. All great men pray

Chicago, Dec. 9.-The federal grand

The judge and the district attorney

evidence in hand, there appeared to be
no foundation for the charge that a

After the adjournment some of the
jurymen said they individually were
satisfied that there was a trust but it
had been impossible to reach by subpOe-

The packers, on the other hand, deny
that there is a combination or trust,
