to the various missionary boards used
Does the money do all that 1t ought tc
do? An attempt will be made to an
swer this question next Sunday evening,
April "a, at the meeting held in the Con

look will also be made into the homes OF

Potatoes were distributed, last Sunday,
to the children in the Sunday school, six
to each child, which are to be planted by
them and the yield brought in at the har-

took hold of the plan with eagerness,
and it is hoped that much good will re-
suit in the children thus being practi-
cally taught to do and work for others.

Secular Sermon.
URELY MORTAL MAN is BRooMsT1cK.
Charlie
steam mill

SURELY MORTAL MAN is A BROOMSTICK.
Ny text, beloved, is taken from the
sayings of Dean Swift. "When l beheld
this L sighed and said within myself.
Surely mortal man is broomstlck."
There are various ways in which man
may regard himself and various things
with which be may compare himself
AS he looks at nature he calls himself
lord of creation. AS he looks at the life
beyond he thinks of himself es passing
small. Hence from the saying of the
wise man let me bring the lesson of our
human limitations. How little and in
| significant we are in the presence of
silent and pulseless time. The ages
come and go and the generations pass.
How little one mans life seems to count
| in the eternity of years! How little he
can accomplish in his three score years
and ten, or five score years! When we
see how short life is we feel the force of
that saying by Cotton, "Time-that
black and narrow isthmus between two
eternities." When we plan for some
great accomplishment which needs q CEN
tury for its completion we feel like
Napoleon who, on the evening before
the battle of Waterloo, is said to have
pointed to the setting sun and to have
exclaimed, "What would l not give to be
this day possessed of the power of JOSH
ua and enabled to retard thy march for
two hours" 1t was the dying queen
who cried out in agony, millions for
an inch Of time" But time passes away
and we depart as q shadow. Life is
spent as tale that is told or as medita-
ton, and we are, and are not, for God
has taken US.
| How also is man like to broomstick
Ia the little strength that is his to WELD !.
| We talk about our power in boastful
wa But ten million raindrops batter
down our boosted works of strength and
the cyclone, which is nothing but wind,
tears our well built house to tatters and
strews it over the plain. A little clot of
blood in the heart stops its beating,
and a little gnat, flying in the sunshine,
Imay stop our breath. We would like to
do great things If we were only strong
enough. Philanthropies call for our aid.
Public benefactions need our help; but
our strength is not sufficient for these
things. In fact, as one realizes bis own
weakness he feels that the divine recipe
alone will enable him to do the work of
life. For that changes a broomstick
Il into man. "They that wait on the
Lord shall renew their strength; they
shall mount up with wings as eagles
they shall run and not be weary; they
shall walk and not faint. "-[Rev G. a.
Smith.
