THE SUNDAY PULPIT
DOING YOUR WORK BRAvELY.

BE strong, and quit yourselves like
men.-I Samuel, w., 8.
II man engages in any sort of under
taking with the feeling that he is not
equal TO the task he is pretty sure to
fail in it.
1t is a curious psychological fact that
whatever depresses the mind decreases
both physical and moral strength. If
man were three-quarters body and one
quarter mind this would not be true,
but since neither hand nor foot can make
any motion of itsef-for it is the mind
or the will alone that can do this--it
becomes clear that if you wish to make
must begin by clearing the cob-webs
from his brain. If you get so far as to
convince him that he is worth something,
that he has a furnace fire within which,
if properly fed. will generate steam
enough to carry him through any emer-
gency you have done him a supreme SER
vice.
No one knows this better than the ply
sician, for doctors practiced mind cure
long before the modern theory was
dreamed of. They know that, while
drugs may be necessary to give the ply
steal system a hint as to what it ought
to do, it is much more important to per-
suade the patient that he is stronger
than his disease and can conquer it.
A doctor who discourages the sick man
lacks the genius of his calling, and is a
medical hereto who ought to be excom-
municated
These truths apply> with still greater
force to religion. The man whose reli-
gion does not stimulate and cheer him is
simply swallowing spiritual poison. OF
course there is minatory side to relig-
ion. just as there is to natural law and
to oscial law. When a gold piece comes
from the mint of heaven it has inscribed
on one side You must not /and on the
other "God is love-" The two inscrip
tons do not contradict each other. Every
man knows that when he follows a
criminal course he invites landslide to
bury him, and that when he does right
the sun shines on his fields and brings
the autumn crop. And it is well enough
to impress these facts on the conscious
ness of mankind, precisely as Sir Hum
phry Davy told the miners not to go
near the fire damp without a gauze lamp
for protection, because an explosion
was sure to follow.
But it is a very different thing to de-
nounce human nature as powerless and
worthless. We have had too much de-
preston in religion, ages of it, until we
have inherited a encouragement which
makes falling into temptation easy work.
When religion is a downward push men
will sink into the mire of depravity. but
when it is an upward pull they climb to
the hilltopS and see the sun rise Man
is mind, not body, and when the religion
of Christ touches him it is like applying
a match to dry wood. The blaze that
follows lights the whole region round
about. But the words of Christ, with
their friendly flame. have been stored
away in the background, and our relig-

How many people are there
who know Just how the biggest
gun the United States Govern
ment ever ordered will look.
Whensit is all completed it will
weigh 12e tons, six tons heavier
than the monster Krupp gun
shown at the Worlds Fair in
Chicago, and five feet longer
than the German gun.
The diameter OF the ingot as 1t
is shown in the picture is 8 feet
Q inches. Its length is 40 feet 2
inches. 1T will be by far the
most powerful gun ever con-
structed. Its projectile will
weigh about 1890 pounds, and
its velocity will be in the neigh
bornood of 1000 feet per second.
The range of such a gun would
be very great-not less than 10
miles; and its extreme range, or
the utmost distance to which it
could throw a projectile. would
be in the neighborhood of Is or
90 miles.

Bell had also rented some suits which
he returned with two Of the masks the
day after the ball.
W. q. Benham. a mining man, was
another witness called to testify as to
the defendants character. He said he
was intimately acquainted with Bell
and knew his reputation to be good. He
had never heard his reputation ques-
toned.
Oscar Bell. a brother Of the Defend
ant. was next called. He said his
brother never had anything to do with
the difficulties between himself and
Mrs. Kelly.
The defense closed and Mr.. Stivers
opened the argument. He pointed out
that the witnesses, with one exception.
who testified to the defendants charac-
ter had done so upon their personal
acquaintance with him and not on the
reports Of others. which was the rule.
He said the only point to be decided
was whether the evidence Identifying
Bell was sufficient to satisfy the court.
He salt that from the evidence there
was no doubt someone had tied Mrs.
Kelly's hands behind her and set fire
to the bed. Mr.. Stivers pointed out the
strong points OF the states evidence and
was followed by Mr.. Cotter. who
thought 1t most remarkable that the de-
PENDANT could have committed the das-
tardly crime with which he was charged
and gone from Mrs. Kelly's residence
to the Maule block. where he was found
in bed. without someone seeing him
when he was so well known. He re-
ferred to the good character shown for
the witness and said he thought IL
highly improbable a man whose char
acter had never been assailed would be
likely to commit such a crime. Mr..
Stivers closed the argument and Jus

ion. He said that while he believed a
crime had been committed. he did not
