article by Rev. II. A. Bridgman, in
The Golen Ruie:'
Bible study is phrase consisting of
two words, the latter of which oft n
fails to get its proper emphasis. We
are apt to think that any ms thod of ap-
proa;n ng to the scriptures is good
euoug5. We pick up the bible juss be-
fore going TO bed and skim over a
DIS aim while our eyeids are cOmiog
close together every second, or ce-
tween church and Sund ay-schOol we
wedge in a moment s glance "a the les
son.
Now, it must be admitted that the
bible is such vital and helpful book
that it is possible we may profit by it if
we take it on the run No doubt, souls
have been saved by opening the book
at random. But low much vigorous
Christian mar hood is built up by this
cavalier treatment of the scriptures is
sn)lher que stion. We do not get st
the meat and heart OF the bible until
we apply to it some of the methods
which we employ in reaching an un-
der standing of the contents of o lr geo.
grapoies and our hi-tories. The bible
will yield its richest stores only to
tho who are patient and industrious
and thorough to dig below the surface.

if the study idea We're made more
prominent. Boys and g;rs, having
the advantage IN cay schools OF the
be- ST modern train ng, being constantly
taught how TO uss thrir minds, must be
made to under stand that, when it comes
to the bible, precisely the same mental
ia :ulties are re quired in order to mas
TER it. Memory, imagi, at ON, COM
parison of passage with passage, the
critical sense, arr all to be called jn'o
play.
This does not mean that boy must

The OF err Sunday 1 tried 10 get
class of exceptionally bright young
men and women to ma rate the parable
of the good Samaritan In such fashion
as we sometimes tell a. story jointly
around an open fire. Their rec tai of
the simple facts in the case was no:
conspicuous success. They all had a
vague idea OF m IA lying by road
side, and somebody coming along to
hep him, but why Christ told the par

Crusade Against Cigarettes.

The st. Louis city council has been
requested in lengthy petit on to pass
ao ordinance prohibiting the sale OF
cigarettes. The petition is the out
come of q meeting of the ladies OF the
Presbyterian church, who condemns d
the pracuce. 1t is underst BOD that
many other Influential ladies' have also
signed the pc ition. The use OF cigar
ett-s in East St. Louis mas become so
general that the smallest school child
rem smoke them on toeir way to school.
The fact has become so notorious tnat
parents have been compelled TO inveS-
tigate, and now all, or nearly all, attrl-
butte the lack If attendance at high
school, ON the part of the boys, to The
early use of cigarettes. For several
years past the graduatirg classes have
contained from ten to Twelve pup g,
but in no instance did the names OF
bows exceed three. One year not d
male received the hOnors. Many Fac-
EMS claim that the lack OF boys in the
high school, is attributable to the fact
that many leave for commercial col
leees, academies and several to WORK,
while the vast majority, adm1 tlog
that this is true to a great extent, hold
that the discrepancy would Lot be SO
great without the aid OF the Cigarette.

RELIGIOUS THOUGHT.

Gems of Truth Cleaned From the Teach
ings of All Denominations.
The church tends to improve the poor
mans lot and is in reality his best
friend.-Rev. DR.. Simpson, Memorial
Church, San Francisco.
What It Really Is.
All intellectual attainment is simply
a knowledge of how God plans and
speaks John Poucher of Green
castle, Ind, at Louisville.
Value of a Friend.
Blessed is the great man who, amid
his i'll fortune, retains even one earthly
friend. 1t is not the least tribute to his
greatness. G. w. Williams, Bap-
fist, Denver.
All Can Be Good.
We can all be good and great if we
but try. Try in earnest. We may not

Tucker, Salvationist, at Chicago.
Jonah Up to Date.
There is nothing more up to date
along the lines of nineteenth century
theology than the judgment of Provi-
dence recorded in Jonah.-Rev. o. S.
Michael, Episcopal, Philadelphia.
Amusement Religions Rival.
Heretofore the church IS rival in the
contest for the possession of Sunday has
been labor. The time is in sight when

Rich on Robbery.
A man may grow rich robbing wild
ows' houses, and the church elects him
to an Office if he will give 1.-THE of his
i'll gotten gains to found chair in q
UNCONVENTIONAL college. N. M.
Waters, Methodist, Chicago.
Race Track Gambling.
Gambling in any form is despicable,
but race track gambling is the arch
vice. Forgery, drunkenness, icentious-
ness, infidelity to home and employer
are closely allied to it.-Rev. s. E.
Young, Presbyterian, Newark, N. J.
The Synagogue.
The synagogue, like the heart, is an
institution for the moral uplifting of
the people, for the dissemination of
truth and the cementing of relations of
brotherhood between man and man.
Rabbi Jacob Voorsauger, San Francisco.
fsu1Id well.
Our character building will endure
forever. Death will not change it. Our
bodies will be changed-our character
will remain forever the same. Build
wisely. Rev. S. S. Waltz, Lutheran,
Louisville.
Science and Faith.
Science is senseless without final
cause. Science has not discovered the
cause. Faith says, cit is God,' and
science will accept this. reply in the
end.-Rev. H. z. Shepard, Congrega-
tional, San Francisco.

men who are going out from the opened

Doing and Knowing

Men say that when they know they
will do; Jesus says that when tney 90
thew will know. He does not promise
to manifest himself to the man who
dreams or debates, but to him who
keeps his commandments. The seeds OF
truth sprout in the coil of obedience.
The words of Jesus in the mind OF a
disobedient man are no more VITAL
than wheat in the wrappings OF mum.
nv. To know the divinity of Jesus
teaching we must do his will with de-
finite intention. Moral dtsobedlence Is
mental darkness, but to submit our
wills in LOYALTY to his law is to open
our minds to the light of his truth.
