 lost. The mole never opens its eyes, it is said, until it is dying. How much better can be said of some people? When I asked a protesting Christian mother in Louisville if she knew that her two sons were lost she said, Oh, you don't believe there is any such place as he'll do your I told her that I did not much wonder that she was uncon- cerned about her children If she did not believe they were lost. Those around us if they have not and do not believe in Christ, are forever lost, and if they or we pass out of this life without faith and hope in Christ we. shall have fate as dreadful as that of Gods life"
 Immediately following the main meet ing an after-meeting was held and it proved most beneficial. Nearly all the ladies present were deeply affected by MT. Biederwolf's words, and prayers were numerous.
 At the same hour Rev. MT Mills was addressing a large mems meeting in the Hyperion theater on The Choice of Ife,'' with Deuteronomy 30:19 as his text, T call heaven and earth to witness against you on this day, that have set before thee life and death the blessing and the curse; therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed" MT. Mills said:
 Moses was a great man. He was a great general; he brought several mill lions of slaves out from the power of the proudest nation on earth, and led them to the borders of a land into which they entered victoriously. He was . great statesman, a great ruler, a great judge and a great law giver.

In this remark able address he used the words of our text.
 Man has been defined as rational animal and whether or not that is a complete definition, this much is cer- tain-that God has given us reason and that He expects use to use it. Reasona- bleness and righteousness are the same thing. A man must be a moral idiot who does not see that a man is unrea- sonable when he is wrong and that no one can be thoroughly reasonable eX- cept as he is thoroughly right. I think more than this-that a man cannot be right unless he is Cody.
 Tn the first place I call upon you to give yourself to the service of God, be- cause this is the way to be manly, am Christian because I want to be man. Some men think it is a manly thing to put off becoming a. Christian, prom Lsing to pay off what they owe to God at some future time. I do not believe that any man may go on in his sin, speculating on the forbearance of God, putting off the time when he will sur render himself to Him and then sue cessfully try to enter heaven at the close of a wasted life. Does this mode of procedure meet your idea of manli- ness?
 There is ever a better reason than this; Gods work needs you. We have two long had the notion that Christ came to call people to come and be saved. He did. indeed, invite men to lay hold on eternal life, but the way in which He did it was by saving: Come and be saviours.' The call that He brings us tonight is for the sake of those about Us, for the sake of our hcildren, for the sake of causing the
