MR. LLWYD ON PRAYER.
What Constitutes Its True Spirit,
Method. scope aud Power,

Rev. ]. r. D. f.iwyd, rector OF ST. Marks
Episcopal church, preached an interesting
sermon on Prayer" yesterday morning. In
part the rector said:
Prayer is universal human instinct: Il
springs from the feeling of dependence
Overwhelming forces surround the human
being. compelling him TO realize his weak
ness and fy for help and consolation TO
higher power, The affairs OF heather and
Christian lands. the temples reared In hon.
age To Jehovah. Jove or Christ, the prayer
OF infancy and the supplicaiion of the bro
ken man. all snr,ng from his yearning to
link his finite Importance with the infinite
and omnspotent goodness.
''In the narrow acceptance. prayer Is Pc
tition only; but. broadly. understood. IL L.
an effort of the spirit OF man to enter into
communion with the Supreme Father Some
natures blessed with a rich endowment Of
OF prayer. as the Eoiian harp auivers with
raviShng melodies with every passing

gle and crisis and In gaining II. through
