15-Comment by Rev. S. IL. Doyle.
Torrc.-True honsr.-John " Ala.
This chapter is taken up with the
healing of an infrm man on the Sab
bath day, the criticism of the Jews in
respect to this act and Christ's reply to
their criticisms. Christ defended His
Messlahship and explained to the Jews
the cause of their unbelief in Him. At
this point our lesson begins. The chief
cause Of their antipathy to Him and re-
fusal to receive Him was their false
conception of honor or glory. They
sought honor of man and not of God.
They were ambitious for worldly and
not for spiritual honor. Therefore, as
Christ had come not to honor Himself
Or to bring honor to them, but to honor
God, they were not drawn to Him, but
were strongly repealed. And the sad
result was that faith In Christ was
made impossible.
1. True honor Is not the honor re-
ceived from man. The Jewish idea Of
honor was false because 1t meant SIM
ply the honor received from man. They
honored men who came in their own
name with. the hope that in so doing
they would receive honor and glory
themselves. ~ am come" said Christ,
ain My Fathers name, and We honor
Me not. If another shall come in his
own name, him We will receive" This
prophecy of Christ has been amply ver-
fled by history. 1t tells of Ga false
Messiahs, who succeeded In forming a
party among the Jews. But their pur-
pose in honoring these human Messiahs
was to obtain honor themselves. Had
Christ offered them honors and glories
In a temporal Kingdom they would
have rallied to His banner. They
would have enthroned Him instead of
crucifying Him. These vainglorious,
honor seeking Jews have many success
ors today. Thousands are madly seek
ing worldly honor and glory. But
worldly honor is false honor. 1t is in
sincere; it is tickle; 1t is temporal.
Christ sought it not. 81 receive not
honor from men," Let us not seek it.
2. True honor comes from God. The
approval of God upon our lives is Of
vastly more importance than the APP
prevail of man. Had the Jews sought
this honor by eonsecrating their lives
to the honor and the glory of God they
would have been both able and willing
to have believed in Christ and to have
partaken of the glories and honors of
His spiritual and eternal kingdom. 1t
was Gods honor and honor from God
that Christ sought. Il receive not
honor from men," He said. His ambi-
ton was to do that which was in ac-
.cordance with the will of God, and
which would receive Gods approval.
This is the honor that we should seek
honor from God. 1t is sincere; 1t is
valuable; it is lasting, for it will en-
dure forever. Let US not be deceived
and waste our lives following the will
'o-the-wisps of worldly honor, but let
us strive by a consecrated Christian
life to receive the honor which cometh
from God.

To break the soil, to sow, to till with care;
To fight the foes that threaten to despoil;
To see In dreams our harvest rich and fair
To reap but tares ana thistles Tor our toll;
To yield not to complaining or distress:
With courage new TO rich the barren loan;
To hush the word, the thought of bitterness.
And join with joy our neighbours "harvesi

This, this Is patience.

cheerfully given their approval to the
new internal remedy, Stuart's Catarrh
as the most successful and by far the
safest remedy for catarrh yet pro-
duced.
One we'll known catarrh specialist,
as soon as he had made a thorough
test of this preparation discarded in
halers, washes and sprays and now
depends entirely upon Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets in treating catarrh, whether
in the head. throat or stomach.
DR.. Risdell says: "In patients who
had lost the sense Of smell entirely.
and even where the hearing has begun
to be affected from catarrh have had
fine results after only a few weeks
use of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets can
only explain their action on the theory
that the cleansing and antiseptic
properties of the tablets destroy the
catarrhal germs wherever found be-
cause have found the tablets equally
valuable in catarrh of the throat and
stomach as in nasal catarrh."l
DR.. Estabrook says Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets are especially useful in nasal
catarrh and catarrh of the throat,
clearing the membranes of mucous
and speedily overcoming the hawking,
coughing and eXpectorating.
Any sufferer from catarrh will find
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets will give i'm
mediate relief. and being in tablet
form and pleasant to the taste are
convenient and always ready for use
as they can be carried in the pocket
and used at any time, as they contain
no poisonous drugs, but only the
cleansing antiseptic properties of Eu-
calyptus bark, Guaiacol, blood root
and Hydrastin.
All druggists sell the tablets at SO
cents for complete treatment.

Central viii Put on Extra Train.
Transportation Facilities to ane
From the Fair Admirable.
Large crowds attended the Georgia
State Fair yesterday. The railroads
brought in more people than they have
any day yet. and the city people turn
cd out fairly we'll. The cavalry tilt
was the chief attraction, but the Fair
itself was evidently of prime interest
with many of the visitors, and the
large buildings We're filled with sight
seers during the greater part of the
day.
The presence of the large party of
editors, invited by Col. i. H. Estin
Of the Morning News, added much to
tue lie of the Fair during the early
part of the day. and made the scene
in the neighborhood of the Morning
News Bureau a busy one. The night
performances were well attended, and
the Midway had a fair share of pat
ronage.
The railroad people are promising
better things for next week. I'VE shall
bring in a fair crowd of people to-
morrow" said Mr.. w. G. Brewer, city
passenger agent of the Central of
Georgia, but the really heavy move
ment will he next week. The Central
will put on a special train between
Augusta and Savannah Monday to
handle the Fair travel The train will
leave Augusta at $3.50 a. m. and reach
Savannah at 1870 a. m, thus giving
the passengers ample time to see the
Fair and return by the night trains il
they desire to remain only one. No
extra trains will be required on the
main line, the service there being suff1-
cient already, but additional cars Will
be attached to the trains as required
The Central has a neat and very
tastefully decorated office on the Fair
grounds near the main entrance in
charge of Mr.. Goodnow, where tickets
are sold for all points on the Central
system and the Ocean Steamship Com
pany, as well. Mr.. ]. F. Malley is in
charge of the Plant System ticket of
flee at the big gate, but his time is
almost entirely occupied in selling
tickets for the trip to the city.
Quite a pleasant surprise has been
given the Fair people by both the Plant
System and the street railway COM
psny in the matter of transportation
to and from the grounds. 1t had been
anticipated that there would be trouble
in this particular, that the street rail-
read would become blocked and con-
gested and that the Plant System
trains would not be sufficient to ham
Ole the traffic. On the contrary both the
Plant System and the street railroad
have given excellent schedules. The
trains have ample accommodations and
are operated every. half hour, both to
and from the Fair grounds with clock
like regularity. The street railway rose
tc the occasion by placing all the large
open cars which were recently added
to it's equipment, and operating them
at short intervals. two and three cars
frequently being operated together So
far there has beer no ground for com
plant of the transportation facilities,
and Manager McIntire is to be con-
graduated on the excellent trolley car
service

M0REL NOT INSANE.
ordinarys Jury Dismissed Him
without Hesitancy

A jury in the Court of Ordinary in
vestigated the sanity yesterday of
Lawrence Morel. the young white
man arrested in the grandstand at the
FAIR grounds, and pronounced him
sane. The investigation was held at the
Court House and several witnesses tes-
tilted that the young man is in no
sense of the word a lunatic. He was
represented by Mr.. Walter C. Hart
ridge and made a statement in his
own behalf.
The arrest of Morel on the lunacy
charge grew out of a fight which he
mad with young man named Hat
fridge. The trouble occurred in the res
ldence of w. d. Dekle, who swore the
warrant out. He claimed that Morel
had no right in his house and that the
case was dismissed in Police Court be-
cause the defendant was not considered
responsible for his acts.
Several persons testified that Morel
IS in no manner dangerous and the
jury had no hesitancy in discharging
nm. Members of the jury stated
that the verdict would have been
promptly signed even if the young
man had not introduced any testimo-
no. More1 was not kept in Jail Thurs
day night but was released by Judge
Cann on the certificates of two physi-

Judge Norwood sustained the special
demurrer filed in the suit of Murray
Miller, against the Merchants and
Miners Transportation Company. The
sustaining of the demurrer filed by
O'Connor, O'Byrne & Hartridge throws

show in what the defective construction
consisted of, and in what manner the
vessel was improperly loaded.
