BLESSINGS COME FROM GOD.
And Man Should Not BE Pulled Up he
cause He Has Been Favored.

Rev. Bascom Anthony preached at Trim
ity Methodist Church last night sermon
that elected much favoring comment.
Though as in accordance with Mr.. Antho-
ny's expressed and published determination
TO leave for the present the evils of
gambling 1t bore no relation TO that sub
ject il did touch upon some questions of
public moment
The theme was drawn from a verse of
the thirtieth chapter of Genesis, relative
to the traffic of Laban in his daughters,
and furnished the basis of a vigorous de-
nunciation of the marriage of convenience,
in which love is ignored and the profit or
pleasure of one party or the other all that
is consulted. In sweeping terms the
preacher denounced such marriages, as
opposed to every law of God and every
principle of morality.
Men should remember, said Mr.. Anthony,
and women, too, that all blessings come
from God. He illustrated his position in
this matter by saying that it was as dis
honorable and mean for man to take
advantage of one weaker than himself in
business, in order to subserve his private
ends as for the champion prize fighter
OF the world to pick up one half his size
and strength and pound him into an I'M
recognizab.e pulp. The strength of men
is from on high and men should remember
this. 1t is given them for the purpose of
helping mankind. To abuse strength OF
mind or body or to use for the purpose of
il-treating weaker brother, is a hideous
and a heinous crime.
Gods blessings fan on good and bad, but
the bad are blessed for the sake of the
good 1t often happens that the worst of
men has dependant OIL him the best of
women and for her sake he reaps the ben
eft OF the showers of Gods mercy, though
he is deserving of nothing on his own ac-
count 1t Is the proud duty of mankind
10 obey the injunction to love one another
and to remember, if God can tolerate one
Of his creatures with all the creatures
sinful and manifold imperfections, it
should certainly be within the power of the
creature to return this mercy by loving
his fellow man,
