My Lord! It is Thy work which I
would do,
And live my life with this one thought
in view;
The world with all its wealth can
never give
Such honor as the privilege to live
For Thee, as Thine ambassador below.
Oh, may I both in word and action
show
The joy feel in that most sacred call,
And count it my chief pride. my life,
my all!
AS Thou on earth vast moved to sym
patty,
When human sufferers were brought
to Thee;
And bade the blind to see. the lame to
walk,
talk;
May I too. as Thy faithful servant.
To bind each broken heart. support
the weak,
And in each life, however cold and
Bring warmth of Christian sympathy
and cheer.
The 1owliest mortal Thou did'st not
despise,
Naught was dnclean, nor common in
Thine eyes,
And Thou art the Eternal King of ALL
A sparrow cannot e'er unnoticed fall
Oh, teach me, Lord, the vast and price
less worth
OF each immortal soul, that dwe11s on
earth;
And may I ne'er despise the smallest
deed,
Or cen the humb1est in the time OF
need.
MY Lord. it is Thy work that I would
do.
And live my life, with this alone in
The world. with all its wealth can

Such honor as the privilege to live
For Thee. And when l go from hence

To join with those that praise Thee in

Oh, may there many be to welcome
me,
Who while on earth I led from sin to
Thee.

said, "Oh, cloud, in thy summer glory.

and the wind said, Thank not us:
thank God, who gave the ocean and the
sun and the wind, and caused the drops

No self-conquest In vice.

Vice pays, unconscious1y, it's tribute
to virtue. It is human nature to feel
a sense of satisfaction in having made
a conquest of kind or another.
The man whose moral character is
deteriorating never feels that, in taxi
ing a downward step, he has made a
self-conQuest- He never feels the
stronger for rolling down hill. He
may make a loud boasting of his vic
iousness, but he has no sense of salts
faction or joy as a se1f-conqueror or
overcomer. AS Prof. James finely says,
He who under the surgeons knife re-
presses cries of pain, or he who ex-
poses himself to social ob1oquy for
duty's sake, feels as if he were follow
ing the line of greatest temporary re-
sistance. He speaks of conquering
and overcoming his impulses and
temptations. But the sluggard. the
drunkard, the coward, never talk
of their conduct in that way, or
say they resist their energy, over
come their sobriety, conquer their
courage, and so FORTH They, like all
others, are sensitive to the joy of self
conquest, and know the noble delight
of overcoming. But the fact that they
never speak in these charmed terms
of their viciousness is their tribute to
those virtues on which they have
age and misery's. S. Times.

Doing the impossible

Doing the best thing possible is a
fair measure of performance. Many
are satisfied with that attain
ment or as an effort. But doing the
impossible when it ought to be done is
a performance that sometimes appeals
to a true-hearted child of God as hia
absolute duty, and then he who re-
spends to this call is doing better than
his best From the day when Jesus
directed his disciples to do the i'm
possible, in giving the multitude food
beyond the utmost ability of the dis
cip1es, 1T has many times been dis
cip1e's duty to do the impossible, and
in Gods strength he has risen up and
done it. go, and do thou Iikewise.''

What Money Cannot Buy.

He who is literally educated is al
ready rich. He has what money it
self will not buy. 1t in itself is
capital invested securely and yielding
interest that puts it's possessor in the
enjoyment of the best things from day
to day. Its money value may vary
but there are some things whose
prices and values cannot be fixed in
the daily markets. AS one grows older
this is form of riches that does not
depreciate, but yields it's larger re-
turns as the days go by. 1t does not
decrease with using, for the more 1t is
called into use, the more does it make
increase of itself. The literally edu-

The New Theology.

The church has subscribed more to
theories of the atonement than to the
atonement; more to traditions of the
Trinity than to the Persons composing
it; more to theories of Scriptura1 in
spiration than to either the Scriptures
or inspiration; more about open and
close communion than the precious
sacrament itself The new theology Is
