The next day he further defined his
position in an interview in the Chroni-
Gle:
For anything that honestly increas-
es the religion of man [ entertain the
highest respect. Anything which
raises the standard of human conduct,
that increases self devotion or promotes
self restraint, should receive all en-
cora cement. The effect of alcohol
stimulants is to produce temporary
mania, slight, it may be, but of the
same nature as insanity. Such, in
degree, is the effect of any drug that
makes us feel well when we are not
well, that gives US false impressions, or
leads to unsteady actions. The normal
aim of a revival of religion is to bring
the various impulses of life into
harmony and to fix the will to high
purposes rather than low ones. 1t
should build up noble ideas in the
place of vagrant dreams. Such 'revi-
walls of religion rarely take place in a
crowd or under the influence of a
professional revivllist
The so-called revival of religion
too often aims at producing Temporal
ry mania. 1t tries to destroy the bal
auce of life, to eliminate common sense.
and 20 substitute hypnotic suggestion
for the conscience and the will. It's
phenomena are those of hysteria or
cataleptic insanity. Its victims rarely
wholly recover, and are as likely to
enter the prison or the madhouse when
the hypnotic spe | has passed as they
are to become healthy members of So
ciety. Pure religion and undefiled
works itself out in righteous action,
while the destruction of the sober
mind, whether through drunkenness.
narcotism or religious excitement is d
step on the road to spiritual death"
This utterance of the learned scient-
list has been taken up by the clergy:
and on another day we will give the
opposite side of the question.

required of all men, The speaker clos
ed with an eXhortation to get down
lower as Christ did. We can measure
our degree of grace by our willingness
to reach down.
congregation last night, with the
Fifteenth Psalm as his text, beginning
with the Psalmist's inquiry, Lord
who shall abide in thy tabernacle, and
who shall dwell in the holy hill of
Zion?' The speaker said the subject
was dialogue between God and David,
and is one of the most important acts
in all the drama of life. David asks
God two questions and God answers
1t has relation to fitness for church
mem bership on earth and life member
ship in heaven. The tabernacle re-
ferred to is the church, and who is
equal to the requirements of its mem
bership? We are here as probationers,
sojourners in the land OF strangers. To
abide is temporary: to dwell means
permaucy. He who walketh upright
ly" is the first qualification: the man
who lives a holy chaste life, who
worketh uprighteousness and doeth
good. The way to be a good church
member is to help advance the cause
of Zion, to speak the truth in the heart.
At this point, the pastor took occasion
to remark that the sin of profanity had
the least excuse of any sin, for nothing
is to be gained at all by it. He who
testifeth to his own hurt and changeth
not" means a great deal; for it means
that man will refuse to swear falsely
in order to secure worldly gain thereby.
This Fifteenth Psalm is the measuring
rule for every man. If you can't meas
ure up by this Psalm you are going
down hill. The Fifteenth Psalm is
stricter than the Methodist discipline,
and is the criterion of true mem bership
in the Christian church. In closing, |
the speaker declared that the man who |
took more interest in loaning out mon |
ey than the legal rate was a thief. At |
the conclusion of the service, John w. |
Taylor united with the church.
