WHICH ROUTEt

TT you were sent for your family physi-
i clan to 90 and see member OF your
family who was desperately sick-sick
unto death-and there were two routes by
which you could go, and one was say one
half the distance of the other, which one
would you choose? Would you 60 round
or through? We think you would 60 the
nigh way.
IN CONSEQUENCE OF THE RAIN
You have a desperate case on your hands
now, in that planting time is at hand ana
your land is not prepared for the seed.
OF course, you can plant your corn or
cotton without getting your land ready /;
but if you do, you will have twice as
much work to do as you would have had,
had you prepared it before planting, and
corresponding decrease in the yield.
1T WILL PAY TO START RIGHT
And 60 the nigh way. You can do this
by using A GENUINE CORBIN DISK
HARROW in breaking your land. If
you will call OH us we will tell you how
you can break eight to ten acres day to
the depth of six inches at less cost than
you can break four to- a depth of not eN-
ceeding two-and-one-h half inches, by the

have no clods, and by yours you will

A Lecture on
Sex and MARRIAGE.

At Washington Hall last night Rev. J.
S. David lectured on Sex and Marriage"
in the course of which he said: Marriage
is holy estate having its origin in the
eternal union of love and wisdom in the
Lord. Parents should teach their chill.
dren that marriage is a step in Their
higher developme MT, a preparation for the
angelic life, and that it should be sought
as such. Wealth, caste and social advan-
tage should never for moment enter the
thought in choosing a partner. Such SELF
ish considerations have thrown a cloud
and darkness over the world which it may
take ages 10 dispel. Let affinity be the
only consideration and the millennium Of
marriage is at hand. Affinity, too, should
include the spiritual, for true marriage Is
union on the plane of spiritual thought
and life
Every nan is both masculine and fem
mime; so is every woman; but in man the
masculine element, which 10 intellectual
ity, dominates, and in woman the femi-
nine element which is affection, domi-
mates. Marriage is a proper blending OF
intellect and affection and their active Co
operation in the duties of life. Woman
is neither inferior nor superior TO man.
They are equal but unlike" and their
union is the harmony of contrasts.

Rev. W. M Reilly's Address at ST.
Paul's Episcopal-0ther
Sermons

"Hitherto since advent" said the Rev.
W. NJ. Reilly, rector of St. Paups Episco-
pal Church, yesterday, 1--WE have been fol-
seasons of Joy and sorrow along the rough
roads of earth. The temptation of the
wilderness, the agony of the garden and
the terrible scenes of the crucifixion are
still fresh in the m emory of many a loving
heart. But now all this is changed. The
darkness has been dispelled and the clouds
uplifted. He that was dead is alive again,
alive for evermore. In the splendor of
the Easter light we saw Jesus once again;
no longer as the despised and rejected
man, but as the victor and conqueror of
death. His love and sympathy were not
lessened by his passage through the grave.
His heart is still with his people and his
delights are still with the sons OF men.
When he had finished the work the Father
had given him to do, when he had set up
the kingdom of heaven here on earth, he
led tbs disciples out as far as to Bethany,
and there, from the Mount of Olives,
assembled up to heaven.
30 brethren. it needs not vivid fancy to
picture TO ourselves the disciples sorrow.
We all know what partings are. We all
know the pangs that pierce the soul when
loved ones are taken from US. Vino has
not experienced them? Well might he
who learned 10 sympathiZe with US say,
Because | tell you il is expedient for you
that 60 away sorrow hath filled your
hearts. / will see you again and your
sorrow shall be turned to Joy, and your
Joy no man taketh from you All that
ever lived shall see him. All shall meet
him. Will the meeting bring jov or sor-
row to you or me? God is lover God is
is now our day of preparation. Would
we ascend with him hereafter we must
rise now from the death OF sin. We must
arise now in mind and heart"

Christ. but to the highest that is in you
1T is not a, burden which he binds upon
you, put one which belongs to you as
moral being. The essentials of religion
are all reasonable and universal, and nee
essary to human development. One says
i put myself souareIy outside of Chris
hanlty.' But that is psychologically i'm
possible. The stream from that fountain
has overfiowed life. and we cannot sepa-
rate ourselves from it's influence. We are
all Christian in some sense. Jesus is the
worlds finest representative of universal
religion, and if all idolatry of his person
could be swept away and we could start
anew with ideas of religion as natural
goodness, 1T would be a great gain to life
and character and grand fulfilling OF the
spirit and meaning of Christs life. Not
me- he says, but my yoke; not my person.
but my obedience. my method, my pur-
pose. my example, We must follow nm
as we do teacher, not for the teachers
sake, but for the truths sake; as we fol.
low guide up the Alps or into Alaskan
gold fields, not for the guide, but for the
view or the treasure. The method OF
Jesus was the ideal. but we are not bound
to his ideal, if we could find it. but to our
own. Life does not mean escape, but

Trafficking in the
House Of God.

"The Protest of Jesus Against Church
Merchandise" was the theme of Rev. Oil
yer c. Miller. pastor of the Church of the
Holy Spirit, yesterday afternoon. The
text was from John 2:16, Take these
things hence; make not my Fathers
house house Of merchandise.
Lord in cleansing the temple is one of the
The speaker said in part: 1.-THE act of our
most wonderful of all his miracles. 1t is
his only act OF coercion, and was per-
formed without assistance or resistance.
One man stands against all the com bined
authority of the temple; none dared to
resist. His first reproof found his Faith
er's house a place of merchandise, but
later on his second found it a den OF
thieves, which goes to show there is no
use to attempt to hold within bounds traf-
fic in Gods house. One might as we'll try
to shoot gun off an inch at a time as TO
regulate the iniquity OF merchandise in
the house OF the Lord,
sHa it not had much to do with stain
ing the annals of our city with the crime
of a century? Such things are an impo-
s;tion upon business men, by whom the
church is largely sustained. Ii the
church wants to go into business let her
be honest enough to take out license. 1t
is noteworthy fact that our Lord did
not attempt divine service while these
things remained in the temple, but after
He had purged the temple He betook
Himself to prayer and healing; SO the
church need expec. no revival before these
devils are cast out
Mr.. Miller read the following resolution
which was adopted by the Presbyterian n
young people OF Puget Sound assem- lied
in convention and sent to him for publ
cation:
We, the young people Christian Endeav-
orers, do now in convention assembled
Resotue, That we pledge ourselves to no
longer favor tfe raising of funds by means of
fairs, suppers and entertainments, and will do
all in our power TO influence our respective
churches against these unscriptural methods
of supporting the cause of Christ.
