Kant thought that the true church is
that which represents the kingdom of
God on earth. so far as it comes to pass
through men.
Frederic Maurice, that beautiful man,
has said in his own beautiful way that
the meaning of the Kingdom was this:
You have Father in Heaven who is
seeking after you, watching over you.
whom you may trust entirely. He ruled
over your forefathers. He promised that
He would show forth His dominion fully
and perfectly in the generations to come.
Il am come to tell you of Him, TO tell
yon how lie rules over you, and how you
may be in very deed His subjects. | am
come that You and your children may be
citizens in Gods own city; that the Lord
God himself may reign over YOU"
The French Renan and the German
Strauss and the English Matthew and
Edwin Arnold-all have spoken gracious
words about this kingdom in their best
moments.
Strauss thought it was the ehildlike
relation to God
Tolstoi thinks the kingdom of God on
earth is where all men are at peace with
one another and Weiss declares il is
when the will of God is as perfectly full
filed on earth as by the angels in
Heaven.
We repeat this prayer many times a
year in public. and no doubt many times
more in our deyotions.
Thy kingdom come" Splendid patri-
otto utterance it is.
We are praying to our Father that the
love. peace, brotherhood. unselfishness,
devotion TO Christine state of things
which we know exists in the great and
blessed country may come here.
When we pray that prayer We are
placing ourselves at the disposal of God.
that he may make us instruments in

During a school tea the other day a
kindly old doctor was regarding one
of the young guests with evident
alarm. Undlsmayed by the doctors
glances. the young scholar rapidly de-
molished plate after plate of bread
and butter and cake. At last the doc
tor could stand it no longer. Going
up to the young rascal, he said;
My boy have you ever read any
book which would tell YOU what TO
eat. what to drink and what to avoid?"

With a strong west wind blowing. a
steam launch, in charge OF S. Larson and
Bert Russell, and having on board a par
ty OF twenty-five women, was blown out
on the lake from Racine and only rescued
after hours of work. The engine of the
launch was disabled and the craft rapidly
drifted three miles out into Lake Michi-

ened and attempted to signal people on
shore Two smaller launches made an
effort to tow the disabled boat to port,
but failed. The Racine life saving crew
went out and after two hours hard work
landed the party safely.

GODS KINGDOM.
BY Rev. william 4. Bartlett.

ny Eeb, TuHdm A. bartlett.
Jesus taught us to pray Thy kingdom
come.
The second request in that wonderful
prayer was that the kingdom of The
Father might come Come where?
Come where we are; come anywhere
where there are human souls.
And what is this kingdom of which
Jesus speaks? 1t is Gods flower garden
no weeds, no destructive worms, no
whitening heat. no shriveiing cold.
You and I should have a definite idea
Of the meaning of that word kingdom.
1t was on the lips OF Jesus perhaps
more than any other. lie said: 1T is
the Fathers good pleasure 10 give you
the kingdom; appoint unto you king
dom.
my kingdom is not of this world; The
good seed are the children Of the king
dom. The kingdom of God is within
you"
So anxious was our Lord to, have MS
understand about the kingdom that He
painted series Of word pictures. mar
velous color poems which contained
world on a canvas no longer than Meis-
sonier landscape. with the iniInitable At
mosphcre of a Corot.
" TN voice IN every one OF lheui
that was as distinct as the ringing Of
the Angelus. whose sobbng notes beat on
listening human hearts.
All the pictures which Jesus painted
were variations Of two themes-a good
world and a bad world; the kingdom IT
world Of His Father and the kingdom
and world of SATAN Heaven and he'll;
holiness and unholiness: joy and misery.
peace and unrest love and hate; father
hood ard brotherhood. orphanage and
separation.
The greatest minds ever since have &C
ceptcJ those divisions. Augustine seemed
To see two cities. The city Of God and
the CITY Of the world
He said. The peace Of the heavenly
city is the perfectly ordered and har-
monious enjoyment Of God and Of one
another"

The ship may sink,
And l may drink
A hasty death in the bitter sea.
But all leave
In the ocean grave
Can be slipped and spared and no loss
to me.
What care |
Though falls the sky,
And the shriveling earth TO a einder turn
No fires Of doom
Can e'er consume
What never was made nor meant to
burn.
Let go the breath
There is no death
To the living soul, nor loss, nor harm;
Not of the clod
Is the life of God,
Let it mount as it will from form to form.

He said the appeal was well taken, put in no evidence for the pro- sacution. and practically asked the court t2 dismiss the case
 Attorney General Harlan yesterday before tho trial. sent long letter to the public prosecutor expressing his views. He said: T understand the court attached q criminal responsibility to the mere participation. in connection with subsequent acts of violence in the meeting at which nothing was done fun ther than to resolve to make de mand for higher wages.

Successive commanding officers of this department have recommended the restoration Of Whipple. and the heads of the War de- partlnent from the time of General Schofield to the present time, have favored it.
