The sabbath Day.

This Gay Of the week is set apart to
enable man to dwell upon the ideal side
Of life, upon man DIS he is meant to be,
upon the revelation of manhood vic
torious over sin by the power Of the Di-
vine Spirit. 1t is a day sacred to the
holy issues Ct humanity, and the liter
allure of this first day of the week, as
well as its art, should minister alone to
this loftier side of man. 1t should feed
him for truer living and inspire him
with new hope in mans destiny In
stead Of this, the great printing presses
are flooding Us with debasing litera-
ture and disgusting art" and are in
fecting men everywhere with despond-
ent view of man and nature. 1t ia An
awful mistake to feed the baser side
and faint men with skepticism Of all
that is pure when it is the business Of
all public teachers to draw men to types
Of moral truth and purity and infuse
faith in the things that are pure and
lovely ana Of good report American

ToP1c.-Putting religion into our daily
taska--I Kings vii, Is, IL; ActA xviii. Ia;
Mark vi. Is.
In the references we have three illus
trations Of what may be called religion
IN daily tasks. The first is that Of tle
builders Of Solomon's temple, In their
important work they needed and re-
ceived the support Of God The second
is the illustration Of Christ himself He
Is presented in the passage quoted as the
carpenter of Nazareth, and in this
work also be received the help and sup
port Of God The third case is that Of
Paul, pictured as the tentmaker, work
ing at his trade hat he might not put
those among whom be labored to ex-
peuse for him.
Religion and the daily tasks Of life
ar not incongruous, they are not an
tagonistic Religion is needed in the
daily life. 1t is not something that is
specially for the human soul on the
Sabbath day, but true religion feeds
soul, mind and body for the six days Of
the week. The Christian who has not
learned to carry his religion into his
life work has failed to perceive one Of
the chief joys and values of Christian
ity. Most Of our time is spent In the
daily work Of life Most Of our energy
is expended here, and if we did not need
our religion in that which takes the
most Of our time and the best Of our
strength WE may we'll ask, when would
we need it: Most of the temptations,
trials, difficulties and hardships of life
are met IN the daily tasks Of life and
what need. therefore, that we have God
and our religious faith TO support US?
Christianity is a practical religion.
1t is suitable to the needs and wants Of
the daily lie. God not only supplies us
with the needs and wants of the higher
life, but also of the lower life We need
God in the shop, the factory, the office
and the store just as much as We need
God III the worship of the Sabbath day,
the prayer meeting or the Christian En-
deavOr services. And God is willing
and able to guide and direct us in these
things as in the higher and more impor-
tant things Of life. God gave skill and
wisdom to the builders Of the taberna-
Gle. He is still able and willing to give
skill and wisdom to His people in the
work Of life
We eften forget Ged in our daily
tasks. We fail to ask His guidance and
direction and help for our daily labors
If the soul l. perplexed or disturbed.
we flee to God. but neglect often to do
