The theme of the d 'scourse was sancti-
fication and the speaker cited passage
after passage from the scriptures to
prove that the second blessing is
possible and within the reach of all
Christians who will reach forth and
grasp it. Sanctifcation is an .expar-
fence. Men have and men will ex
perience it and the blessed condition
into which it brings the human soul
Sanctifica ton is a step higher up in
the spiritual realm than regeneration.
Atthe close of the service a good y
mum Der of people gathered at the altar
to pray for that second blessing. Rev.
Gladney cited the DEGREES of the
Method st conferences TO show that the
doctrine If sanctifcation was a doc
trine of the church.

in part: Man is asked to consider the

God whose will it is that all men mi ght

1t gives sympathy to ones life. This
was what gave such power to the
ministry Of Jesus Christ. He loved
men. His great heart throbbed for
sinful humanity. He yearned to save

Imagine her feelings as she tries to
save her child. Such spirit of en-
thusiasm to save the lost and dying is
impaired to one who is file d with the
holy spirit. 1t gives one courage too.
/ Add to your faith courage, said Peter.
Peter knew what that meant from his
own experience. Courage added to
own Jesus Christ. This grand element
of character gave victory to Elijah,
Paul, Nj rtin Luther and the heroic
Knox The holy spsrit filed church
is church which is unified. God can
not work through church divided into
factions. We must be one to be power

ghost has come upon YOU Have you
the power. 1t cannot be Gods fault if
you have it not. Examine yourselves
to see if you, you my friends, are not
at fault if this power is not yours.
Rev DR. S. II. Sutherland preached
at the First Presby terian church last
night from the text: And it shall
come to pass that whosoever calleth
upon the name of the Lord shall be
saved,' Acts. II:21. This text is the
announcement by Peter of the fulfill
ment OF pi Ophecy by Joel delivered
about eight hundred years before. 1t
is notice given of a very great change
4 the dlspeusatiou of grace. Up to
this point, grace was bound up, so to
speak, in forms, ceremonies and Sacrifi-
ces of the most cumbersome kind. AT
still later period this same apostle
spoke of that Mosaic dispensation as u
yoke on the neck which neither our
fathers nor we were able to bear"
Besides it's onerousness to those who
were subjected to it, it was too ex-
elusive to be of greatest service to
mankind. 1t was wall Of separation
that stood between the Jews and Cen
tile, shutting the one in and the other
out. 1t was the occasion of untold
enmity between the two classes of man
kind. The text announces it's demoli-
ton, and the flowing together of the
two streams. The new dispensation of
grace is one racticable to all. 1t is
best stated by its central figure and
author when he says: Come unto
me all We that labor and are heavy
laden and l will give YOU rest. Take
my yoke upon you, and learn of me;
for some meek and lowly in heart: ana
We shall find rest unto your souls. For
my yoke is easy and my burden is
light =" These words are most
characteristic of the new dispensation:
and Indicate its adapability to man
kind universally. 1t addresses itself
to the untvers Il conditions of mankind,
of all clinics and all ages of the race,
and is equally practicable to all.
Nv hosOever," therefore, "shall
call."' Now we approach the one past
term of salvation. 1t Is to call on the
name of the Lord. This one word in
dicates our helples5ness, our need of

ALL WEAR THE TALITH.

All the men wear the talith in the
synagogue on these holidays, and the
rabbi, as he reads certain prayers,
throws his talith over his hat, draws
it close about him and eintones and
chants in peculiar, wailing voice.
The greatest day, of course, is Yom
Kippur. On that day the orthodox
Jew wears his kittel-the robe in which
he hopes to be buried and does pen
ance for his sins by complete abstin-
ence from food and drink for twenty
four hours. 1t begins on the evening
of October I, when the Kol Nidre. the
most soul-stirring of services-some ten
centuries old-is sung. The fascinat-
ing music has been adapted to modern
orches,ras and is heard also in the
sanctuaries of the reformed. The
more pious remain all night and all
day in the synagogue, engaged in earn
est prayer. Some of the devOut even
put split peas in their stockipgs-no
shoes are worn-to keep them awake
mindful of the Divine presence. Five
days later comes Sukkoth, the feast of
tabernacles. with merry bells and joy
Gus mein, to drown the memory of
penitentisl days. Then the pious again
leave their houses and live in booths
with matched roofs, decorated with
the time when the children of Israel
dwelt in tabernacles in the wilderness.
In the Ghetto these booths are erected
on roofs and in back yards, and al
though they are roughly constructed
AMI poorly fitted for habitation. the
pious enjoy them and feel sgain as
when they were real tillers of the soil
and understood the meaning of a har-
vest festival.-New York Journal.

uniquely interesting. The model
Jewish housewife has been
very busy these days, as the
home must be scrupulously clean dur
ing the festal season, and no work of
any kind is permitted during these i'm
portant feast days. On Rosh Hashana
all the synagogual decorations are
white. The red damask hangings be-
fore the sacred ark, at the altar and on
the reading desk have been removed,
and Immediately white draperies and
coverings, usually made of satin, are
substituted. Even the gayly colored
vestments of the sacred scrolls of the
law are changed to white.
The principal features of the Rosh
Hashana liturgy were the singing of
the thirteen articles of the Jewish
Creed, comptled by Maimonidas, and
for four and half hours, the reading
OF many psalms and prayers. Most
i'm pressive of all is the blowing of the
seafar, or rams horn, which refers to
the judgment which God is supposed
to render on this day. 1t is blown to
ca forth terror from the wicked and
and to iuspire rejoicing
in the repentant aud virtuous TIE

ure who was created in the likeness of
his creator. Gods plan of redemption
brings man into closer relations to
himself through Christ. Behold the
manner of love in that the son of iod
shed his blood tibet we might
be Gale the sons Of God. 1t is glori-
Gus thing TO know that mao is freed
from the power of sin. Thus we are
made the sons of God and made to re-
ceive the Inheritance with the Savior.
God sets all these spiritual privileges
before US, and we must have the spirit
of adoption in our hearts to appreciate
these privileges. Christ can 10 save the
uttermost from the in tipities of sin, as
long as we allow him to assist us. If
our hearts condemn us not we have
evidence that love for his command
ments is overo Omiug the world. You
can't teach a man the way to salvation
by half hearted Chri stisn life. If we
confess our sins, God is faithful to for
give US and cleanse US from all unright-
eousness. Purify yourselves even as
Christ is pure.
We may not understand how it is
that man need not sin in this life: but
this is so. We can serve God in
ri Oh t. business and holiness. If the son
snail make you free, We shall be free
indeed. When Christ shall appear, we
, shall be like him, if we make oursel-
yes pure, even as e is pure. Thus will
the spirit of God be reinstated in our
hearts.
AT THE Y. NJ. C A.
Rev. T. l.. Lallance, late Of New
Orleans. made fine add -ess before the
Y. M. G. A. yesterday afternoon. The
speaker said he believed if every ism
bad a greater respect for the Oh ristian
| ministry, there would be grea,er OPP
portunity in this world to do good. The
average idea seems to be- that the miu-
lister is one who is to entertain, when
he should be the one standing between
God and men, leading the latter away
! from destruction to the glorious light
of saving grace.
| The text was 'Run We through the
streets of Jerusalem, and lOok. and

desk are replaced by white and the
great scrolls or books of the law that
are taken out of the ark Of the cove
nant ON the altar stems are also swath-
ed in white with gold embroidery, in
stead of their usual coverings of bril-
liant fabrics If the congregation be
one of wealth, the men of the syn
agogue, together with the rabbis and
the president and the vice president,
wear tall and shining silk bats. The
rabbis continually and the worshipers
when they are called, one by one to
take part in the services, have wrap
ped about their shoulders the 'Talith,"
long white shawl of thin silk, border
ed with a rim of blue. Up in the gal
lery, shut off in the poorer congrega-
tions by white lace curtains, are the
women. for it is a principle of orthodox
Judaism that no woman must set b err
foot on the synagogue main floor.
These ceremonies are noted for their
beauty and their charm. The walling for
Jerusalem, the hymns for salvation and
forgiveness, the chants of thankfulness
m axe up a great song that once heard
is forgotten. But its burden is sad. A
melancholy and desOlatiOn runs through
every line of the scores of prayers that
follow each other in rapid succession,
and the climax is reached when the
scrolls of the law, each a roll of parch
ment, wrapped around two sticks,
with silk coverings and tinkling bells
stop. the Whole scrolls more than half
as high as man, are brought forth
from the ark, and, being unfolded, are
read in flowing Hebrew. All the de-
tails all the ceremonies, of what is
done these first days of the Tishri
would take pages to describe. 1t can
only be said here that the romance of
these days is amending.

OF the Creation of the World Celebrat ted by

OF the Creation of the World Celebrated by
Pious Jews.
AS soon as the first three stars be-
come visible in the ornament to-
morrow evening Rosh Fl shana, or the
Jewish New Year, will have been
ushered in. This means to th. 10. O0O,-
900 Jews throue out the world the be-
ginning of a series of festal days lasting
almost an entire mosth. No matter
how Indifferent to the traditional
5enets of Judaism the modern Israelite
may have become, or how deeply his
" hole mind and soul may be engrossed
il his business, on two of these days at
least-Rosh Hashana and Yom kippur,
or the Day of Atonem ent-he will be
found worshiping in temple or synagO-
que, unless he be entirely alleneted
from the faith of his illustrious an
eStOrS.
Rosh Hashana occurs on the first
day of the month of Tishri, and she
Hebrew chronology records the 0,6)Sth
year since the first day of creation.
when Elohim said 'let there be light. "
Now there is some controversy in the
Talmud as to the time of the year when
these words were uttered. Rabbi
Joshua fills several pages to prove that
the year really begins IL Nissan, which
is in the spring, when life aud vegeta-
tion assume their emprynic bloom.
Rabbit Eleazar, however, opposes him
with au equal number of'pages in favor
of Tishri, maintaining that creation
must begin with the formation of the
germ, which occurs in the Autumn.
Rabbi Jos tua gotta verdict, but Ia bbi
tGleazar re tanned the fruits of victory,
for the date of ROsh Hashana remain
ed undisturbed.
