has journeyed around the world. The
king in the palace, the banker at his
desk, the laborer in the mill, the SER
want in the home, the salesman, the
miner, the farmer, millions of men of
| all classes and lands and tongues, feel
the heart throb with JOY that five peo-
pie have been rescued from the great
devourer who never gives up his dead.
There is joy in heaven said Christ,
cover one sinner that repents." Yes,
and there is joy on earth too.
This is the tie that binds Christ's
church with q bond that nothing can
break. There is many a man who
would go about marked as a wretch,
with the whole world pointing the fin
ger of scorn at him, there is many a
man whom people would shun, and de-
nounce as unfit to mix with men on the
street if the things that are known in
side his own home were opened up to
the public gaze; and yet there is one
who believes in him, and that little wo-
man who saves his self-respect, at last
saves him too. Christ intended that His
church should he a place where the
wandering and forsaken could find
hearts that believed in them; where the
broken in spirit could come, as to
fortress of love, knowing that not one
word would be said about the past;
where the lonely and lost could enter
shelter from the storms of wrath, and
hear no malignant hint or mean pro-
phecy about another fall. Either we do
not understand our Master, or we have
deliberately in many cases organized
our churches on different basis. Many
of us could pass through life with hap
piness following us wherever we go, as
the roses carried through room leave
their influence on the air; and yet we
feel that it is not for US to mix with
all classes of men, or to find friends i'll
the common crowd. And so, instead Of
seeking the spot where most we are
needed, We hunt out some place where
we can find most pleasure In so doing
we abandon our Christianity, for all the
mitered bishops, all the ecclesiastical
councils, and all the orthodox ceremo-
MES in the world cannot make Chris
tian of a deliberately selfish man. The
follower of Christ Is one who is drawn
to the region that lacks the thing in
which his soul most abounds. Has he
wisdom? Then the darkest place is just
the one that needs his light. Has he
culture? Then the rudest life Is the
one that calls to his refinement Has
he riches? Then the poorest lives are
the ones to make his friends. Has he
strength? Then the hardest tasks be-
long to him. His gifts are not a divis-
i've thing, by which to build a little
paradise of chosen friends, and guard
himself from the sight and importuni-
ties of those who are not on his level;
but holy trust from God, given him |
to spend in the place of greatest need,
in buying souls for the kingdom of |
light. There is an aristocracy in !
Christ's Kingdom; but it is the aristoc-
racy of Christ likeness.

THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT.

Rev. w. F. Dickerman spoke at the
Church of the Messiah yesterday morn
ing on the subject rs the Sermon on
the Mount to be Taken in Earnest?"
He spoke of the circumstances and con-
ditions of the present century as COM
pared with those in the time of Christ,
the trouble often being, as one man has
said, that in the present age men mis-
understand Christ and try to make an
Englshman out of an Oriental The
practicability of the Sermon on the
Mount is yet untried The Quakers
adopted it's principles, but though their
principles have not been without good
effect, they have not been of the strong
effect to be desired. Christ did not
preach to any particular denomination;
He spoke the doctrine of the individual.
His thoughts We're not Of the material;
they had specifically to do with things
of God. The spirit of Christ must be
copied in to-day's life-the spirit of
meekness, Of humility and of open
mindedness.
Reference was made to The Hague
conference, end its effects, and the pres
ent war trouble, as grim irony. The
various manufactures in this country
We're spoken of as educational institu-
lions, requiring of their workmen
standard cf education and morality
that compared with the colleges of a
few years ago, if not of to-day. Need
of higher morals was pointed out, of
greater fraternity among mankind, of
self governing principles and of the true
gospel of Jesus Christ in the hearts Of
mankind.
Referring to war, he said: ct think
the time is coming when warfare will
be considered as cruel and uncivilized
as the duel is to-day, because men will
have opportunity for reflection and for
thought. The doctrine Of mercy will
have promulgated itself so strongly that
men will hesitate to engage in so deadly
and barbarouS a strife.

A hundred pounds month for a bed
IN a three-bedded room! Such Is
,ample Of the prices now prevailing in
Cane Town. Some ladies in London
who had been inquiring about prices
and accommodation were quoted aa
above. According to the London cor
respondent of the Birmingham Gazette
they were told that they could be ae-
,ommodated for a hundred pounds per
bed in a three bedded room. Three
hundred pounds a month for one room
s pretty steep. 1t means that hotel pro-
