Topic, A Good Name.

SCRIPTURE READING.-Prov. xxi, |.
Wealth cannot buy character That
can only be had by making it, Nor can
riches assure good reputation and re-
spect. The confidence and regard of
men are won less by material possessions
than by those of mind and spirit Men
cannot love person who is able to
clothe himself elegantly and live sump-
tuously, but who in heart is cruel, base
and foul.
Nor can one find happiness and peace
in possession of power and riches. No
clothes, however fine and well fitted,
can ease the heartache or still the con
science for things done wrong. Military
genius may enable one to devastate a
continent and dethrone dynasties, but it
cannot compare in value with the genius
of humble toll and peaceable we'll doing.
OF all earthly goods none other can
compare in worth with genuine good
ness. Next to this comes the reputation
for virtuous actions One does not long
hesitate which most to admire, Napo-
leon or Washington. AS little do we
doubt which, was the more truly happy.
The good name of Washington is due to
his sincere patriotism, his unselfish seek
ing the good of others. One cannot help
believing that the love of his fellow
countrymen and their esteem was more
pleasing to Washington than all his
fame as soldier.
Seek to be worthy rather than wealthy
Be right whether or not you can be rich.

ToPIc.-"Some things worth living for
I John ii, 12H
Every one lives for something. More
than that, every one in more or less
measure attains to that for which he
lives. What we live for is, therefore,
very important to us all. Every one
should live for something. Life, with
its grand opportunities and its splendid
possibilities, is not to be idled and
wasted away. God has something for
every one to do in life, and the chief
end of our existence in life should be to
discover what God has for us to do and
to do it.
Many people live for things that are
not worth living for. Among these
things is the world and the various
against loving the world and the things
of the world. If we love them, we will
live for them and waste life away-the
most precious Jewel that we possess.
Life is too sacred, too solemn to be
trified away on the passing joys aud
honors of this world. The man who
loves the world and lives for it will not
love God nor live for Him. The world
brushes God out of mans heart and
| life. 1t bounds the horizon of his life by
| time and recognizes not the boundless
eternity beyond the grave. Yet the
world and the things of the world will
pass away. They are temporal. Their
Joys are unsatisfying. Fill the cup of
| the world to the full and overfowing,
drink it to its dregs, and still there will
be an aching void in the human heart
| that will not be satisfied.
The one supreme thing worth living
for in this life is to do the will of God.
1.-The chief end of man is to glorify God
and to enjoy Him forever" The object
of mans existence in this life was never
more truthfully expressed than these
words express it. We should lose our
selves in God for Christ's sake, an6
Christ should live in us and reign ovel
us. When we can say, with Paul, 1T II
10 longer l that live, but Christ livetf
in me-" we shall have fulfilled the vii
of God toward us, and in doing so shall
have made life worth living.

BE of Some Account.

Have a mission in life. Be of some
account. Do not court responsibility,
neither shirk it when it is laid upon
you. See God hand in every movement
and note its bearing upon you personal
ly. He has use for you somewhere, and
often where you least expect. Fall III
line with His will from time to time.
He may not have conspicuous place
for you to labor, but He Will bring out,
if you follow His guidance and are faith
full, your talents in the sphere where
you can do the best for Him and fol-
others. -Presbyterian.

The Awakening.

The Christian church as body is SET
against the drink curse. The sentiment
of opposition to the saloon, the whole
traffic in alcoholic beverages and all
other intoxicants, the manufacture ana
sale of such, is on the rapid increase.
Congresses of prison officials and those
who make study of reformatory science
reveal in ever clearer light that the bulk
of all crime is due to- the use OF alco-
holic stimulants. Business men have
found il to their interest to insist that
their employees shall be strictly temper
ate. Nearly all the railroads OF the coun-
try refuse to keep man in their employ
who uses liquors
The impossibility of preserving the
peace and purity of community in the
presence of open saloons has led to the
enactment of stringent laws preventing
the location of saloons near churches
schoolhouses or in purely residential
parts of the community
The people are awaking to the need OF
suppressing the menace to their welfare.
Some people try to get rid OF evil
habits as children try to clear windows
of frost on cold winter day. They
scratch little place clear, only to see il
soon covered as thickly as before. A
better way is to kindle hot fire in the
soul of love to God and men. When this
begins to burn, the frost of evil habits
melts Of itself, and all the windows OF
the soul become clear and transparent.
