APPLICATION OF THE
COMMANDMENT OF LOVE.

The Reverend Taylor Bernard pastor of
Raymond Place Cumberland Presbyterian
Church. preached Sunday morning on The
New commandment taking as his text
John. xiii. 3tS5: "A new commandment I
give unto YOU, that We love one another; as
other. By this shall all men know that We
are my disciples, II you have love one to an
other. He said, in part:
although this commandment is practi-
cally contained in the decalogue-Lev. xix.
Is: Matt. xii. S9-yet it is new In its d-
rectness, and the reason of it's application
AS l have loved YOU This love is not a
mere sentiment, nor is it based upon per
sora! attractions. c~ongeniality of spirit. or
exceilencies of character; but is like the
bounty of God. which seeks the welfare
ity which causes a multitude of sins and
loves the unlovable, and the worst of sin
nerS.
Such a spirit was not only stronger, but
vas ACCOM- condemned emmett in ,st the , time dser. of 70 Christ:
all of the poor of the Empire for the pur-
pose OF drowning them, saying that COM
passion for them was an evidence of weak
for the murder of superfiuous children.
Even Seneca advocated putting weakly
children to death, as it was a matter of
sucn brutality Christ sent his disciples to
preach the Kingdom Of God, the supreme
law of which was love.
This principle Is necessary, and is the
tnly SUFFICIENT motive to morality in all
relations. There is no true patriotism with
out love Of country. The authority of par
ents and the obedience of children are with
tua, love. Philanthropy. which has no gen
uine altruistic spirit, Is a misnomer. The
greatest weakness and danger from social
ism is that it may be inspired by hatred for
the. ruling and prosperous classes. instead
of real sympathy for the oppressed, poor
and unfortunate. Love is an imperative ne

Christ in Il salvation only when there is
the profound. sincere purpose or act or
amendment. Forgiveness OF sins Is re-
vcalec only to the faith of the pcnitent, for
givcness that is adapted TO repentance as
light is adapted to the eye.
The Greek word in the text translated by
repentance is 'mctaroia. signifying a
change OF thought, and so u change OF pur-
pose. with the implied corresponding change
IN the outward life, usually described by
reform While a change OF thought Is NOT
necessarily attended with grief. yet in all
moral eInpioymentS of the term grief over
the previous sinful life tnat one now pro-
poses TO quit is in the nature of things al
ways present. 1t Is well to note that in
the usage OF the Greek word the element
of grief Tor sin IS left In the background.
the word not directly expressing grief ut
all. The Latin TRANSACTIONS of the Bible
give poeniteHtiam agcre, to exercise pen
itence.' But through the apparent ctyrlol-
oEical connection of the Latin word with
pain the significance of grief or distress Is
emphasized at the expense of the loss OF
the fundamental idea of Il change or pur-
pose.
We therefore see how a subtle. pernicous
error has arisen. Penitence is contracted
into penance. Our later English word re-
pentance' inherits the fault of the earlier
Latin by making grief the prominent e!c-
ment and n change Of purpose secondary.

WILL NOT BUY BONDS
AT PRESENT PRICES.
Secretary Gage Says He Would
Prefer to Let the Cash Pile
Up in the Treasury.

Washington, March 31.-Secretary Gage
was questioned to-day as to his probable
action with respect to the cash accumula-
lions in the Treasury. and particularly as to
whether he contemplated buying bonds FOR
the sinking fund. The matter Is one OF IN
tercst, in view of his latest estimate that
the years surplus will be over SEQ, 900.
The Secretary said:
There are only two methods open to get
surplus funds out of the Treasury vaults.
One is to increase Treasury deposits in ma
tional bank depositaries; the other is to buy
United States bonds. AT present quoted
rates for the short bonds. / do not think the
Secretary would be justified in buying
bonds. TIE fves at the price yield an in
vestment return of only 1.03 per cent; the
short tours 1.61 per cent: the three per
cents of 1908, 1.34 per cent, while the new
two per cents at their present price yield a
higher investment return. 1.73 per cent"
The Secretary declared he would not IN
crease the deposits with the banks. and
continued:
ITO put the matter in a nut shell: If 1t
be a choice between buying bonds at an
artificial price and letting funds accumu-
