THE LAST HARVEST
Rev. David Walk at the Church of
Christ

David Walk in the Church of Christ, on
Eighth street near Central avenue, read
Matthew 1868, and announced for his
subject 1.-THE Last Harvest"
mo more solemn utterance ever fell from
the lips of Jesus than his explanation of the
parable of the wheat and the tares. Ii
would be as wise to question mans exist
ence as the fact of sin, and the essential
quality of sin is necessarily destructive.
and unless pardoned, eternally destruc-
tive. No one questions the wisdom and
benevolence of Jesus; all the world ac-
knowledges his love for and sympathy with
the race. And yet he was the first 10
preach the awful doctrine of hell. And he
preached the doctrine because of his inf
mite love. He understood the inevitable
consequences of sin. He proclaimed the
fact of hell on the same principle that the
switchman waves a red light before the ad-
vancing train. He taught that hell is the
logical outcome of sinful and impenitent
life. He'll is not the creature of God, but of
sin. Men gravitate to their moral level.
When the apostles were released from
prison they came to their own company.
and when Judas died he went to his own
place.
This parable must not be belittled by
pressing it into the service of petty ques-
tions of church discipline. There are
scriptures which bear upon the conduct Of
church members, but this is not one Of
them. The kingdom of Christ is in pro-
cess of development. and its theater is the
world. The sons of the kingdom are the re-
deemed and they live side by side and are
inextricably involved with the wicked.
But the time of separation will come, and
this will be the final harvest. The angels
of God, now ministering spirits will be the
reapers, and they will prosecute their work
under the immediate direction of Christ.
All metaphors here employed are awfully
suggestive and their meaning is apparent.
"The question has been sneeringly asked:
why does not God kill the deviT? 1t is
better that the devil should be killed by US,
than that God should kill him for us; this
is possible so far as his influence and power
over US are concerned. 1t is our work to
resist the devil. Christ prayed, not that
the sons Of the kingdom should be taken
out of the world, but that they shouic be
kept from evil

very severe. Most people jump out OF

before going to bed or while undressing),
and ask some one to rub the leg.
There is nothing easier than to make the
spasm let go its hold, and 1t can be ac-
complished without sending for doctor,

is subject to cramp, always advise him to
provide himself with a good. strong cord
A long garter will do. If nothing else Is
handy. When the cramp comes on take
the cord, wind it around the leg over the
place that is cramped, and take an end in
each hand and give 1t sharp pull-one
that will hurt little. Instantly the cramp
will depart, and the sufferer can go to
bed, assured that 1t will not come on again
that night. I have saved myself many a

patients subject to spasms of the legs how

THE TEMPLE OF GOD
Whether We Shall Live in a World
Beautiful

"Know ye not that ye are the temple of
God, and that the spirit of God dwelleth in
you?" were the words from which Rev. n.
A Haskell of San Jose preached in Unity
church yesterday morning.
"It rests with ourselves whether we shall
live in a world beautiful" was the general
subject of the discourse.
"The Unitarian church," said the speak,
err has a great mission in the new life, for
it stands for the spirit and not for the let
ter. The new age predicted a half century
ago by this church Is already at its dawn.
The voices of poetry and song are singing
through the wide world. The period of ne
cation and controversy that was forced
upon us is at an end The pioneer work is
done; new socia. order is to be estab-
lished; new world created for a new race
of men; for all who have caught the in
spiration of the new age.
''The strongest affirmative comes not
from voice but from the life. Every soul
that rises into the atmosphere Of the new
thought rises to a new life Let us go forth
with new song as we go to work in the
morning and as we return to our homes at
night. Let us affirm with CHEEKY voices
and happy faces that the world is beautiful.
The spirit of this new life is God; the eter-
nal reality that is behind this world and
revealed in it. There is no reality in The
surface of this outer life; reality is the
spirit and the thought that rules the outer
world.
1.-THE world Is beautiful to the beautiful
in spirit, and it rests with ourselves wheth-
er or not 1t is beautiful to us. The re-
sponsibility that rests on each and all of
us is to live on high spiritual plane. This
new life, with all its blessedness is for us,
If we open our hearts and receive it. Let lis
believe that we are sons of God. Creation
!s ever the higher life from lower forms.
Mans creation has been process of un-
folding. I anticipate an unfolding of new
faculties and powers in man, coming first
10 those who are prepared for 1t, gradu-
ally to become the life Of the nation. How
Z - slowly II may come. 1t II now within

FIRST UNIVERSALIST
The True Resource Of Church, by
Rev. A. A. Rice

The pastor, Rev. A. A. Rice, spoke Oh
''The True Resource of a Church. from
John iv:14: "A well of water springing up
unto eternal life"
He said, briefly: 1.-THE real resource of
church is the vital truth on which it is
based. All its energies, its activities, its
progress. ultimately depend on the faith
for which it stands. The novelty of being
a new institution may cause temporary ac-
tivities, opposition from older established
churches may give advertisement to some
what of outward prosperity, but for perma-
nent success, both spiritual and material
its potency is in its system Of truth. First
of all, in order to be effective, a faith must
harmonize with reason; its truth be ar
ranged according to the law of human
thinking. conclusions be the logical out
come of its premises. For instance, when
it is said God is omnipotent and wills the
salvation of all men, it is an affront to rea-
son, to conclude, that mans free will shall
Illustrate this power and intention, and
such faith cannot enlist the best labors of
men nor meet with a full measure of sue
cess.
again, the effectiveness of belief is
measured by the degree with which it
corroborates the moral sense. That God
should permit everlasting sin or that man
should continue endlessly in it disturbs The
even tenor of our moral being and paralyzes
our efforts to save.
"Once more, for the fullest and freest
inspiration of mans power faith must be
in agreement with the promptings of our
affections To say that God is love and
at the same time affirm the endlessness OF
hatred is but to mock our better natures
and to make deadlock in our activities
Faith in the ultimate triumph of good is
the well of water springing up unto eternal
life.''

FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Rev. A. c. Smither Preached a Ser
mon to Young Women

Rv the request of the Young Womsn's S
Christian association of this city, the Rev.
A. C. Smither of the First Christian church
nreached a sermon last night to young
women. 'The keyword of my sermon
said the speaker, sis that of enlargement
This is an age of enlargement for women
There has been no preceding age like IT,
A wide field of education has been opened
up to our women. There are only a Few
places where she cannot enter with her
brother. Thus nearly all vocations are
open to her. She may enter into business
competition with her brother. Nearly all
the professions are open to her. She has
demonstrated that she can teach success
fully, that she is an adept in the practice
of medicine, that even the rostrum ana the
pulpit are spheres she can occupy. she
is claiming her place in our civil and polit-
ical life. In some states she has the right
of suffrage extended to her and political
preferment is open to her. There are very
few places and spheres Of human activity
that she may not enter and have power and
influence.
with enlarged opportunities come en-
larged temptations. First and greatest OF
all is the temptation placed before our wom-
en- to allure them from their proper sphere,
that of wife, mother and home maker. For
this God created and adapted them. To
evade it, its work and responsibility, is TO
shirk a solemn duty God has laid upon
them. Anything that attacks the home,
its sacredness or place in society," is an
enemy of the race and Righteousness. The
new woman idea carried to its limit is re-
sponsible for the wrecking of many homes,
and for some of the disturbances of the
economic and social world. There is
danger, too, lest the woman of business OF
profession will lose some of the refinement
and reserve that men so much love in the
fairer sex. The office and store have led
many women to their physical and moral
wreck. The requirements and rebuffs of
public life do not always prove blessing
to woman.
Besides the temptations open to woman
by the wider sphere of their lives there
come enlarged responsibilities; for respons-
ibility is measured by and not upon oppor-
tunity. There is the obligation of carrying
with them the purifying and uplifting
power of pure and noble womanhood. If
our women must enter the race of life with
men let society be all the purer for it. Let
them be the friend always of everything
that tends to ennoble and dignity human
life. Let them ever frown upon, scorn
that which is evil. AS highest of all woman
should be adorned by a Christian life and
faith. Christianity is the greatest friend
and blessing of womanhood, and it should
be honored and revered by those upon
whom it has bestowed its highest benefac-
tons"

the grasp of those who can rise to grasp
It. Let us rise out of our narrowness unto
this wide range Of thought; the world will
become beautiful the moment we open our
eyes to see 1t and our hearts to receive IT,
that is the moment when all things will be
possible to us.
"Our life has been heretofore on the
plane Of the senses, but the great transfor-
nation we are coming to is that God IS
spirit and the spirit Of God is the spirit oil
man. Man comes to power when he learns
that this great force is the eternal The'

SONG OF STEAM
Written Years Ago but Has Most of
the Qualities of Genius

Mr.. Kiping has got to that bigness OF
fame where he looks almost threatening
So strong is his individuality and so dis
tinct is his note that we are beginning to
think of all his qualities as strictly his
own, whether they are as old as the hills
or not.
This has been the case with many an
other great writer; he absorbs into his own
personality many qualities that may be
borrowed from. or merely similar to, the
qualities of some predecessor, but which
are forthwith credited to the later and
greater man, while the humble original
sinks into oblivion.
Mr. Kipling, through the mouth of his
McAndrews, cried aloud for some one to
sing "a song O. steam.
Lord, send me man like Bobbie Burns to
sing a song of steam.
Forthwith the world said to itself: "Why,
we haven't had any steam caliope yet
have we?" and straightway the world
echoed Mr.. Kipling's cry
But, now, there was a song of steam
written by an American years before Mr..
Kipling was born. 1t was a very good
song, too; not great but very good; bonn
bastic in some spots and weakened in
others, but, on the whole, high-spirited
lyric. 1t was written by G.. w. Cutter, who
was born in Cincinnati in 1918, served as a
captain in the army during the Mexican
war, and died in 1866. We quote two of its
stanZas, as follows:
In the darksome depths of the fathomless
mine
My tireless arm doth play,
Where the rocks ne'er saw the suns de-
cline,
Or the dawn of the glorious day.
I bring earth's glittering jewels up
From the hidden cave below:
And 1 make the fountains granite cup
With crystal gush o'erflow.
blow the bellows, 1 forge the steel,
In all the shops of trade;
l. hammer the ore and turn the wheel,
Where my arms of strength are made.
I manage the furnace, the mill, the mint
l carry, 1 spin, 1 weave;
And all my doings put into print
On every Saturday eve.

YESTERDAYS SERMONS
THE TRUE PARTAKERS IN THE
DIVINE NATURE
ADVICE TO YOUNG WOMEN
The World Beautiful-David Walk
at the First Christian Church.
Other Pulpits

Rev. Burt Estes Howard, at the First
PRESBYTERIAN church, selected his text
from St. Peter, xi:1-4: Whereby he hath
granted unto us his precious and exceeding
great promises; that through these ye
might become partakers of the divine ma
ture." The speaker said in part: "a di-
vine promise is not certificate of deposit.
The exceeding great and precious promises
which God has given to men insure the
success of spiritual effort; they do not take
the place of it. When we come to the New
Testament with mind that is not seeking
dogmatic Interpretation we are struck by
the singular unanimity of idea and ideal.
The keyword is life, rather than opinion.
Jesus says: 4 came that they might have
life He calls men to come to him not
that he may have disciples, but that they
may have life. The heart of the gospel is
vital. 1t seeks to make divine men rather
than doctrinaires. Paul says that Goa Is
seeking a full Christian manhood and thae
all his dealing with humanity is to this
end. Peter declares that God has given
knowledge, not of dogmas but OF lie, oI
godliness, in order that through these
promises we may become partakers, not Oh
rewards, but of divine character.
"Christianity does not seek 10 make US less
than men, nor does it aim to make us more
than men. To make the Christian 1t is not
necessary to destroy the man; it is not an
en1asculated affair; it is vigorous, healthy,
positive, Righteousness that walks the
earth, breathes the common air and lives
diyinely because it lives to the full of hui
mappess. Jesus talks continually about
life. His whole aim was to quicken man.
hood into the full exercise of its power, to
make men alive in mind, body and soul.
The test therefore of Christianity must be
found in its effect on character The man
who is showing forth divine qualities of
mind is the Christian man. 1t is the one
test that is supreme. This thought of our
divine possibility is stimulus to all that
is wise and holy in us. 1t breaks our clasp
with the things that debase and belittle us.
The call of the Master is an appeal to our
best manhood. appeal to you by all the
divine opportunities that stand open before
you, by every living aspiration that pulses
in your own soul, by every true ideal that
summons you to loftier levels, bring
forth your life from the narrow concep-
tions In which you have prisoned it and
give 1t divine chance"

PRIMA DONNA IN PAWN
The Landlady Succeeded in Collecting
From the Manager

Prima donnas in pawn have been heard
of even in this unmusical country, but this
Italian, who was named Luga Lossa, has
deliberately pawned herself for the bene-
fit of another person.
The impressario of the opera In Turin
was in debt to his former landlady and
had made no effort to pay her. The prma
donna also happened to be one of her guests
and she decided to get the money through
her.
An hour before the performance in which
the singer was to appear took place she
locked the singer In her room and went
to the impressario.
II have come for my money" the land
lady said to him.
Impossible" answered the manager. 81
can give you anything but that. 1t Is i'm
possible
What do you bet don't get my money
tonight?' asked the landlady.
The manager told her she was mad, and
then he was interrupted by the appearance
of his stage manager. who told him that
the prima donna had not made her ap-
pearance, although it lacked only a few
minutes of the beginning Of the perform
ance.
GO to her house." roared the impress
sario.
81 have been there" was the answer
land she cannot be there. The doors are
locked and nobody answers"
"Will you give me my money now?"
asked the landlady.
ITO the devil with your money. Get me
Signora Lossa."
Give me my money and I WILL" was the
answer. II pawned her this afternoon.
She is locked up in her room and 1 will
have her in ten minutes if I get my
money"
There were curses and tears, but the
money was brought around from the box
office and paid to the landlady. So was her
cab fare, and the prima donna stepped on
the stage only ten minutes late.
The story got out to the audience, which
welcomed her as enthusiastically as if it
had found something that seemed ire
trievably lost. That happened in Turin

generation by teaching them to depend
on politics rather than on individual effort.
1t aroused race prejudices where none ex-
