Wealth.

Jesus never manifested any mere
antagonisms to the rich because
they were rich without distinction
as to the nature of their wealth.
how it was obtained and how it
was used. He had no class hatred.
His sympathies reached out in all
directions. He attained to the
wisdom SO rarely won by the teach
er and great reformer, the wisdom
of moderation, of balance, of per.
feet poise. After the generations
of teaching which have utterly be-
clouded the conceptions of Jesus it
is absolutely unjust to say that
there can be no such thing as a
Christian, meaning by that that
every rich man is dishonest and a
hypocrite.-The Rev. DIR. Heber
