Sin or Error.

Within the past year we entered a
church on an important occasion. a
bishop vas about to preach, and a
large number Of ministers were pres.
ent. The choir sang a voluntary prior
to the beginning of the regular service,
which both impressed and distressed
Us. 1t was this:
God, to whom we look up blindly,
Look Thou down upon US kindly.
We have sInned, but not designedly.
II our faith In Thee was shaken,
Pardon TnOu our hearts mistaken,
Our obedience reawRken.
We r sinful, Thou art holy;
Thou art mighty, we are lowly.
Let US reach Thee climbing slowly,
Our ingretitude~ contessing,
On Thy mercy still t~ransgressing,
Thou dOst punish US with blessing,
Our lngratitude ~cOnfessing,
On thy mercy still transgressing,
Oar ingfatitude ~confessing,
Thou dOst punish us with blessing,
Amenl Amen! Amenl
Since the moral quality of every &C
ton is In the intention, it would be ap
propriate for us to pray, if we are tc
confess, I'VE have sinned, but not de

Wash me thoroughly from min,
iniquity, and cleans me from my sin.

can attack a perfectly sound body; no
fever of unrest can disturb soul which
has breathed the air or learned the
ways of Christ. Men sigh for the
wings of a dove that they may fly
away and be at rest But flying away
will not help us. ''The kingdom OF
God is within you" We aspire to the
top to look for rest. It lies at the bot
tom. Waters rest only when it gets
TO the lowest place. So do men.
Hence, be lowly. The man who has
no opinion of himself at all can never
be hurt if others do not acknowledge
him. Hence, be meek. He who is
without expectation cannot fret if
nothing comes to him. 1t is self evil
dent that these things comes to him.
1t is self evident that these things are
so, The lowly man and the meek
man are really above all other men,
above all other things. They dominate
the world because they do not a for

The Loud Call From Parkway Lands.
How loud is the calling from far, away
for the message of Jesus the World
To whom in their needs do they spread
forth their hands.
For the news which they never have
heard9
To YOU it is given to carry atar
This point to the light Of the bright
Morning Star
As the healer of passion and strife.
Their voices are ringing from over the
sea,
Where oppression and cruelty reign,
Where pity is blinded and love has no
plea,
And the weak by the stronger slain.
On, haste with the peace giving gospel,
they cry,
To deliver from conflict and hate;
And earnestly locking to US for reply
In their darkness ~despairing they
wait.
From Africa's millions, from China's
dense throngs,
From the isles of the e comes the
wall,
From those with a gospel distorted the
wrongs
Are entreating to lift eff the veil.
DELAY not to share what your Lord has
supplied,
Which so freely Ia given to you,
And carry or seud till Insight, spread
ing wide,
Has dispolled thought and doctrine
untrue.

A GOOD MAN GONE.

Here is the kind of an obituary that
a Georgia editor put up for a poor man:
Poor Jim slung his earthly garments
on a limb and swan the river yester-
day. He did not stand back because
the water was cold, but plunged right
in, rose smiling and struck right out
for the other shore where the angels
were waiting for him with a finer suit
than he had ever worn in his life. Jim
was a poor man, but he had his cub
scription to his home paper all paid up,
and he got there in good shape"

Notes From a Private Letter.

A brother writes:
while I never have been what peo-
pie call a drunkaId, 1 can testify that
when one lives up to the requirements
of the Christian life he will naturally
leave off not only the drinking habit,
but all bad habits."y
The same brother continuing Gays:
Il have been a great doubter, but I
became thoroughly convinced, and
now l try as earnestly to serve my
precious Heavenly Father every mo
ment of my life as it is possible for me
to do" .
Now for the result:
"An financial entanglements adjus
ted-and they were in a bad shape
contentment every day; the old life
laid aside; no envyings, no sinful de-
sires, no desire for intoxicants, etc.
Do not think that this is written in
any spirit OF egotism, for I give my
precious Heavenly Father all the
praise"
Closing his letter, this friend adds:
II wish all who are trying to live an
earnest, Christian life would read The
Christian Secret of a Happy Life !
feel sure that he would be benefited
thereby"

Hymn.

Let the still air rejoice,
Be every youthful voice
Blended IN one:
While we renew our strain
To Him, with joy again,
Who sends the evening rain,
Aud morning sun.
His hand in beauty gives
E.ch flower and plant that lives,
Each sunny rIll;
Springs, which our footsteps meet,
Fountains. our lips to greet.
Waters, whose taste Is sweet,
On rock and hill.
Each summer bird that sings
Drinks from clear Natures springs
Her early dew;
And the refreshing shower
Falls on each sunny flower,
Giving it life and power,
Fragrant and new.
So let each faithful child
Drink of this fountain mild,
From early youth:
Then shall the song we raise
Be heard in future days,
Ours be the pleasant ways
OF peace and truth.
Now let each heart and hand
OF all this youthful band,
United, novel
Till on the mountains brow,
And in the vale below,
Our land may ever glow
With peace and love.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, April T.
Consul-General Fung Yung Heng and
Vice-Consul King Owyang returned
late last night from Washington. They
left here few weeks ago, dating their
departure to reach Washington few
days in advance of the delegation of
See Yup merchants who went to plead
for mercy for their relatives impris-
oned in China by the Minister'S ord
ers on account of the boycott between
the Sam Yups and See Yups.
According to the statement of the
Consul General, the See Yup mer-
chants must have been smoking, for
he declares that all statements about
his being deposed are merely fgments
of disordered See Yup mind. Instead
of being disgraced, according to the
Consul General, honors were showered
upon him. He was invited to be Sec
retary of the Legation at st. Peters
burg, where Minister Yang Yu goes
after his successor arrives.

NEW YORK, April IA Washing
ton dispatch says: President McKin-
ley contemplates sending former Sec
retary of State John w. Foster to Con-
stantinople as a special envoy with the
rank of ambassador, to secure from
the Sultan the payment of American
claims and the speedy trial of Ameri-
can prisoners.
The President will probably send to
Congress a message recommending
that authority be given him for this
purpose.
Under the proposed arrangements
Mr.. Foster may be sent to Turkey
when the resignation of Minister Ter
rill is accepted, to serve until his work
has been performed, and then give
place to the Minister who will be ap-
pointed as Mr.. Terrill's successor.
Members of the Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations and the Republican
leaders in the House who have been
consulted say that the plan would not
be opposed in Congress.

1t is not believed here that Minis
ter to Hawaii will go to Honolulu on
the cruiser Philadelphia, which is ex-
pected to sail from San Diego on We'd
nesday. 1t is said that Harold E. Sew
all, son of Arthur J. SewaIl, candidate
fir Vice President on the ticket with
Bryan, has been selected for the posi-
tion. Because objections may be raised
TO his confirmation, it is not thought
probable he will sail prior to the an
nouncement of his confirmation
The statement is made that Mr.. Sew
all's conversion to Republicanism is too
recent to entitle him to a place of such
prominence. This may be used against
him in the Senate.
