CLIMBING THE ALPS.


The Rev. DR.. Moore Gives Vivid PIc-
ture of Swiss Scenery.
Onsunday evening last the Rev. Dr.. f.
| II. Moore of Forest Presbyterian Church
preached the first of the series of sermons
on his European travels. As announced it
was on Lessons OF Providential Guidan ce
suggested by experiences in the High Alps
of Switzerland.
He began his discourse by comparison
between the high achievements of God and
man. Mans work reaches its highest and
loftiest success in the grand cathedrals, the
wonderful tunneling of mountain and
river. the swift and powerful greyhounds
which ply the ocean and the other advance
ments of art and science, while the works
of the creator find their pinnacle of success
in the natural world, in the everlasting
hills. the great and mighty rivers. the
power and wonder of Niagara, and above
all. in the sublimity of the mountains. The
Alps were brought into prominence. The
dangers accompanying the ascent were
most vividly pictured by him, both from
personal experience aud from incidents
known of others who had, at the peril of
their lives, mounted the summit-some re.
turning as he has, others meeting their
death in the yawning chasms below Those
peaks which are so familiar to the school
girl and boy, the Matterhorn, Monte Rose
and st. Bernard, were all visited by the
speaker.
In speaking of st. Bernard he recalled
the fact of this being the spot where the
Romans crossed, 100 B. G. Constantine also
passed over it. There Napoleon marshall
ed his 10000 men in May, 1900, and came
very near losing his life in one of the awful
chasms. The most interesting fact relating
to this celebrated peak was the work of the
Augustinean monks, forty in number, who
spend their lives in the hospital, which is
located at the heighth of 1S, 900 feet. They
enter the service at the age of IS years and
the longest they are able to continue is Is
years, because of the severity of the cold.
DR.. Moore next spoke of the wonderful St.
Bernard dogs which are sent out from here
as rescuers of life, and of one in par
ticular that had saved thirty human lives
and was shot by one who took him for
wolf His stuffed remains are at Bern.
Suterlachen and its beautiful lake region
were visited. The passes of Grundelwald,
Handeck, and Gemmi we're all scenes in
the travels, and there was something of in
terest connected with each and all through
the discourse there was woven that which
inspired feelings of awe.
Continuing his talk from Wednesday
evening of last week, Rev: F. H. Moore, D.
D. at this weeks prayer meeting took up
the thread Of his travels and continued
the Rhine, giving some very interesting
incidents of his experiences, and describ-
ing very graphically the scenery of this
river, the massive and imposing castles
which stud its banks and the cities that are
the pride of the German Empire.
