in THE CHURCHES
Continued from 9th. page. |

chapter and the last two chapters of
Revelation, where the gates fly back
and you see the crowns flash.
No wonder Easter is so joyous day.
No wonder the church is lull of celes-
tial song and the joybells ring all
round the earth up to the gates of
Glory. Paul wanted to be swayed by
the resurrection of Christ. He wanted
to feel in his own soul the power of the
Resurrection!
Talk about the power OF Niagara, the
power of Cesar's tenth legion, the
power of gravitation-the Power of the
Resurrection is one of the greatest of
all forces. It has transformed islands
and continents. All the missions and
martyrdoms of Christianity are based
upon it. There has been no civilization
of worth but.what the thought of i'm
mortality has been taught. 1t has
warmed the very air of the Arctic cir
Gle. Men in poverty and blindness
have endured waiting for the day when
eyes will be opened. Sufferers from
lingering diseases have died in vic
torious tranquility, confidently expect
ing the time Of no pain and death.
Mothers have come back from two-foot
graves, singing through their tears,
1--WE shall meet beyond the river. some
sweet day, by and by" This resurrec-
tion g thought has sent cheer into dark
attics with no carpets On the floor,
where little cripples rejoiced in the
hope of the beautiful country.
How this doctrine has given new
worth to human life. Think of it, TO-
600 men under one Roman emperor
were killed in the coliseum. After
every banquet several slaves lay dead
from q sword fight. Henry VIII hang
ed people who begged or who cut Lon
don bridge with penknife. Jesus
made the world see the worth of human
life by flinging out before men the
Judgment throne, the resurrection.
Before this doctrine, crimes have crept
to corners and suicide hides its head.
And when the despotism of kings and
governments made men slaves, how
many looked out and away to the time
when men should be free and equal
before God. The power OF the resur-
rection! 1t has changed frivolous men
and women to cOpSecrated people of
God till they have said: II will have
all eternity to rest in, now [ must work
for God-cheer this old man, raise this
fallen sister, help this man to live, to
die" The power of the resurrection
has sent sunshine into saddened homes
where sorrow, black robed sat at the
empty crib and at the fireside.
But not only is the spirit to live
forever, but also the body. Immortal
lily is incomplete without the i'm
mortality of the body, Christ is not
conqueror of death unless the body too
is raised. Death is not to have one
solitary trophy to show. The resur-

longer weary, no longer in need o.

beautiful our new bodies will be. They
will have the perfect eye. the perfect
hand, the perfect face. No stopped
shoulders or faces twisted by grief-au
immortal body it will be. No groans,
no coughs, no fevers, no hospital. no
invalid's chairs, no crutches.

the laboratory the workman complain
ed of the accident. Farraday sprinkle1
some chemicals into the jar and in q
moment every particle of silver was
precipitated at the bottom. The mug
get of silver was taken out and new
cup was made of the same cup. If Far
! raday could do that with the dissolved
silver, what cannot the Infinite Chem
ist do with these bodies of ours dissolv-
ed in the jar of the universe-the
grave. ''Why should it be thought
thing incredible that God should raise
the dead?''
What scene 1t will be. What
scene when the voice of the son of m IN
shall pierce the graves. Away down
in the ocean hollows they shall awake
and CON forth. All who have been
killed in .battle-Marathon, Tours,
Waterloo, Gettysburgh. All the ceme-
teries shall give up their dead. All
killed in ocean disaster. all who died in
famine, all who persisted in mines un-
der a hundred feet of solid rock. No
tomb strong enough to hold them. Out
of the catacombs and westminster
Abbey, they shall come. The good
and bad, all infants all, all. General
Gordon shall rise out of the African
sands, Mrs. Cosn from the South Sea
Islands. All in their graves shall
come forth-The power Of the resur-
rection!
Oh, men and women this living for
ever is no trife. Looking upon the
earth with it's griets and graves, how
comforting is the thought of the re-
surection. Look up this Easter day.
Be happy for one day! Your loved little
ones, do you not see their sweet in
nocent faces and their arms full of
flowers. Beautiful, heart soothing
gospel of the resurrection. Sound it
from the organ. Sing it in song.
Preach it from ten thousand pulpits.
L commend you to the Lord OF the Re-
surrection!

Dewey's FORESIGHT,

This battle was won in Hongkong
harbor," said Admiral Dewey to me
when I first saw him in May, 1898, and
heard him describe the great fight.
Many times since then have 1 heard
him repeat the same sentiment, and
the more the truth of it is considered,
the more light it sheds on his charac-
ter. While he was brave, strong,
prompt and decisive in action, he was
thoughtful, cautious, deliberate and
sure in preparation. Day after day he
summoned his Captains to discuss all
the possibilities and eventualities of
conflict with the enemy. He gave them
an opportunity to say when, where and
how the battle should be fought. From
junior to senior he called upon them
to express their opinions freely. If any
man had a novel idea, it was given
careful consideration. If it was an old
one with improvements, it was viewed
in all phases. After the Admiral had
patiently heard his Captains and duly
interrogated them, he quietly told them
his own exact plan of battle and ius<
what he expected of each man. Wheth-
er this was made up originally out Of
his own ideas, or from such in union
with the best points advanced by his
Captains, it was reached only after
thorough elaboration, and was final

Naming the Baby in Persia.

The naming of the child in Persia is
made an event of great rejoicing and a
time for the gathering of relatives
When the guests are assembled sweet
meats are eaten. and then the infant
in it's swaddling cloths, is brought in
and laid on the carpet in the center of
the room by one of the priests. Five
names are written on as many slips of
paper and placed between the leaves
of the Koran a chapter is read from
this book, and then one of the slips is
drawn at random. The name on the
slip is the one the child has to bear
through life, and the priest takes up
the slip. pronounces the name in the
child's ear and places the piece of pa
per in its clothes. Gifts and congratu-
lations follow
The custom in Japan is for the par
ents on the thirteenth day after it's
birth to take the child to the temple
they attend, and the father gives three
names to the priest, who writes each on
a piece of paper. These are then shut
fed about with certain lamentations
and thrown up in the air. The first that
falls is the one, chosen. This is then
written by the priest on a consecrated
piece of paper and given to the child $
parent to preserve The child then re-
ceives certain gifts, two of which are
important If a boy, two fans are pre-
sented; and if a girl, a pot of pomade,
and in each case a packet of flax thread
is added, which signifies good wishes
and long life.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Jamooz or Buffalo OF Turkey.

No animal in Turkey or the Balkans,
save possibly the sheep, holds SO i'm
portant a place in the economics of
daily living as the buffalo.
This clumsy, uncouth beast, its dingy
black hide almost destitute of hair and
its ponderous horns low lying on neck
and shoulders, is everywhere in evil
dence and everywhere highly respected.
Buffaloes are particularly valuable in
all swampy districts which the malaria
renders almost uninhabitable even to
animals Indeed, buffaloes cannot live
without the opportunity of frequently
plunging and wallowing in mud and
water When not employed they may
always be seen feeding in the swamps
and lying in the muddy streams with
barely their noses above the surface
Their great strength is turned to val
liable account both for the purpose of
blowing and dragging the ponderous
homemade carts which no beast of
lighter weight could possibly draw,
They are usually driven or dragged by
a rope attached to the horns or drawn
through ring in the nose while their
steps are guided by goad-a long
stick armed with a pointed piece of iron
sharpened with file
They are good natured beasts, and
are frequently, in the Balkans espe-
cially, driven by young women, who
walk ahead carrying the rope in their
hands and plying the goad with vigor
and discretion.
The milk of the buffalo is much
richer than cows milk and is utilized
in making the buffalo butter which
connosseurs declare particularly fine,
as we'll as the yaourt or kumyss. which
is one of the staple articles of diet
in the East
The tame buffaloes were first intro
duced into Western Asia about the time
of the conquest of Persia by the Arabs
in the seventh century.-New York

from acute indigestion. Recorder GoT

pany, was accepted as the third juror
His illness followed, and he was ex-
cused.
A few moments after Mr.. Fraad's Sc
lection the fourth juror was accepted.
He is Herbert Gordon Thomson, an iron
manufacturer. His father was one of
the medical experts at the trial of DR..
Buchanan. The next juror accepted
was Abram Altmeyer, a retired real
