WASHINGTON, d. C.-In this sermon,
which Dr. Talmage sends from Paris, he
analyzes the character of the Saviour, and
urges all Christians to exercise the quail
ties which were conspicuous in Christ's
earthly life. The text Is Romans viii, 8:
Now, if any man has not the spirit of
Christ he is none of His
There is nothing more desirable than a
pleasant disposition. Without it we can
not be happy ourselves or make others
happy When we have lost our temper
or become impatient under some light
cross we suddenly awaken to new appre
citation of proper eouipoise of nature. We
wish we had been born with self balance,
we envy those people who bear themselves
through life without any perturbation. and
we fatter ourselves that, however little
self control we may now have, the time
will come, under the process of years,
when we will be mellowed and softened,
and the wrong things which are in us now
will then be all right, forgetful of the fact
| that an evil habit in our nature will grow
into larger proportions. and that an ini-
| duity not corrected will become the grand
father of a whole generation of iniquities.
| So that people without the grace of God
in the struggle and amid the annoyances
and exasperations of life are apt to be-
| come worse instead of better
| Now, the trouble is that we have n the
ory abroad in the world that mans dis
position cannot be changed. A man says.

! A man saws "T am imnuIsiye, and I can't
help It," And he tells the truth No man
can correct his disposition. I never knew
a man by force of resolution to change
