EpwoRrH LEAGUE MEETING TOPICS,
April A.. "FOundatous." Matt. VII, AN.

Our LORD comes to us and to nll
men as the absolute teacher. who
socver," he says, "heareth these say
ings of mine, and doeth them. / will
liken him unto wise man" He claims
TO understand life and IT'S outcome.
He allows no place for possible doubt
In the previous study the apostle Paul
has revealed the wonderful change
that comes to those who accept Christ
as their Lord. In this Scripture the
Lord himself reveals the test by which
all men are to be tried. Some may
claim to be alive to Christ who are
not. In every age there will be those
who Will say, Lord, Lord" but bear
no fruit '.rhe language clearly i'm
plies that there are some who profess
to be Christians, who acknowledge
Jesus to be the Lord and pray to him
as Lord and praise him as the Lord,
who nevertheless have no part in him"
"All Men Are Builders. This is one
of the great truths which our Lord
indirectly declares. Not all are build
ing wisely. But everyone is building
something. This is truth we are all
apt TO forget We are apt to think
that we can pass along through life
and sometimes in the last hours make
y
But the truth Is we are building all
the while some kind of house.
"All Builders Have a Choice OF
Foundation. Every house, whatever
its character must have n foundation
of some sort. 1t cannot be built In
the air. The wise builder IL reveal
ed more by his choice of u site even
than by his choice of plan ana mater
ial. In the mind of Christ there are
just two kinds Of bulders-those who
choose the rock and those who choose
the sand. He that heareth Christ's
sayings and docth them Is building his
house upon the rock. Those who have
not heard Chrlst's words but live ac-
cording to their best light will find a
rock foundation somewhere. sometime.
They are building on the sand who
are building carelessly. thoughtlessly.
All who, having heard Christ's words,
do not do them are building upon the
sand. And the sand represents every
thing that Is insecure.
"Only One Foundation Will Stand"
This is the point of the whole par
able. Our Lord warns the people of
his day and of all times that there IL
only one thing that will stand In that
day that VIII try all men. namely, q
character built upon him as the foun-
dation rock, character modelled after
the pattern he has set. We are all
building; we all have choice of foun-
datlon, and the ability to choose what
sort OF structure we Will build. The
Lord warns us in advance that our
house will surely be tested, The test
ing time may come suddenly, or with
certain signs of its coming. Eternity
will try everything. Those only will
stand who, having accepted the Lords
words. live every day in accordance
with them.

Death Takes Them on Quickly.


1t Is a popularity of the members Of
the royal family that, however healthy
and hearty they may have been, yet
let them be once attacked by serious
Illness in advanced middle life or old
age. and the malady quickly proves
fatal.
The Queens father, the Duke Of
men, and never had an hours illness
in his life. but at the age of fifty-two
he died at Sidmouth of a severe cold
after few days Illness, which was
caused by his sitting with wet feet
after taking a walk in the rain.
George Ill was declared by his doc
tor to be likely to live for several
months, or perhaps years. but within
n week he was attacked with some
illness of old age and died in few
hours.
The Duke of York. as strong and
healthy man as his brother, the Duke
of Kent, caught chill while on visit
TO the Duke of Rutland, at Belvoir,
was seized afterward by illness, broke
down all at once, and died in three
months.
George ". was expected to live for
years in the early part of 1880, but he
broke up exactly in the same manner
as his brother.
William ~. died in ten days from
hay fever, after having been for seven
ty-two years most healthy and Wig
orous man. The same thing happened
with other members of the family Of
George III.-London Truth.

One Way to Tell Taisn..

one good way, l think, to Judge
whether we have talent for anything
or not is to watch the motive that
draws us toward doing a thing. If we
do 1t because 1t is the fashion, or be-
cause other girls are doing it, or be-
cause we have to do 1t for some use
ful purpose, It is not probable that
we have real talent for II: but IL we
md ourselves doing 1t Just because we
really love 1t and would rather do it
than not; II 1t is doing the thing itself
that attracts us. and not the eclat 1t
Is going to give us in the eyes of 9TH
ers-why, then l think we may reason
ably conclude that God has given us a
real talent for that particular sort of
thing

THE YEARS CORN CROP.

The corn crop is short-yery short
The final report of the government bu.
reau points out that there was slight
Improvement during September in the
more important states OF the central
west and the Missouri valley. but that
owing to the deterioration OF the crop
in the Southern states the average
condition is only raised TO 52.1 per
cent from 51.7 per cent on Sept. l.
The significance of these figures can
be better understood when II Is ex.
planned that the mean average for a
series of years on Oct. is SIS per
cent and the average yield about
1000. .000. 900 bushels. Consequently the
condition" of this seasons harvest
which means the prospective yield per
acre, is nearly 80 points below the nor.

shortage of $50, goo. 600 bushels from
a normal crop.

corn at 40c. the ordinary value of the
corn crop is about $500. 900 900. TAX
