Management OF Roadway.

and duties in connection with the road
sides. 1t is common to find by the

of the roadside is great mistake, and
1t not only gives n neglected appear

propagating weeds that do much dam

By such remarks how much inferior they
are For there u nothing more honorable

honest confession. OF SIN one 20 another

arms were driven into their sockets add
his back was twisted out OF shape. He
never recovered, and was ever after that
an object Of pity as be made his way along
the streets The man who had been saved
gave hall OF al he had 10 the man who had
saved him. His wages were always divided
with the one who suffered for him. and We
understand ihis as being right and true,
but when Christ suffers for Us we do
naught but reject Him, Vet IN the face OF
al tins rejection God SAYS, Il VIII forgive
YOU" but II we sin against the Holy Ghost
there is 20 hope. We may sap the two
cords IN the trinity. but when we snap the
third by indifference and sin II Is dan
gerous thing.
In the days of the food on the Ohio
River az that point IN the river where
three bridges one after another span the
river, when frequently men and women
are seen drifting upon RATS and striving
frantirally 20 be saved. ropes are let down
from these bridges IN order that they may
attempt 20 catch them. Ii they miss the
two bridges men stand upon the second
bridge and shout after them as they go.
There IS bat one more bridge, and as a
rule j; Is their last chance. So II Is with
Us, except that the statement OF Gods
word Is that If we sin against the Hoy
Ghost there i no forgiveness. Our refusal
may one day be accepted.
III,
We are not so familiar with the Hoy
Ghost as with the Son of God and with
God Himself We have learned concerning
His personality, We have had visions Of
HIS power. we read stories OF His work,
but II ought 10 be remembered that every
impression we have toward good IN these
davs comes from Him. for He talks OF the
things OF Christ and shows them unto US.
Sometimes His seekings have been in
trouble always IN a revival. He calls
sometimes by the ministry. There Is 4
special call given TO Us frequently IN Gods
providences; generally through our friends
who are Christians lie speaks 10 Us the
things of God. One oi my frlenGs took a
seat in railway train next 20 a man, and
in his conversation learned that he had
lust become a Christian. He said that II
was through a letter written him by his
mother Nv friend asked 10 see the letter
which would mean the conversion of a
man. and he answered. 1t Is not so much
IN what she says but IL Is the way she
signs her name; you can see that her hand
has tremb.ed, and when / read II ! said.
If she dies no one else will ever ask me 10
be a Christian again. This Is true OF the
Holy Ghost. II we sin against Him there
is no hope for us. 4 threefold cord Is not
quickly broken. but we have. as II we're.
snapped two of the strands and the third
Is day by day swinging Just 10 our hands.
To say NJ once again may be 10 reject
Him forever.

Sermon. the Preachers Deepest Thought.

Almost no preacher to-day dwells ex.
c,usiyey upon sin, salvation and the re.
lation OF Christ to the sinner says the
Congrega OF Boston and Chicago.
Important as these themes are. other as.
poets of the mission of Christ in the world
and of the purpose of Christianity are
being brought to the front. We regard
this as extremely desirable. Preaching il
something more than the reiteratlon Of
traditional truths in conventional ecciesi-
astical language A sermon j. the embodi.
ment of a mans deepest aud most real
thought, phrased in words which every
body can understand and addressed TO the
real needs OF real people. Jesus Christ was
a popular preacher lie employed parallels
and talked about the lilies and the clouds,
the barrel OF meal and the play OF little
children, and weighed carefully all His
words with a view TO making the truth
which filed and flooded His own soul
plain. winsome and powerful in the eyes Of
others

Flowing Under Green Crops.

While we advocate plowing under

self-Snrrender.

There will come TO every manly man
times IN his life when he viii see that
there is something which Is legitlmately
his something which he has right 10,
something which nobody can blame him
if he takes and enjoys to the fullest, and
yet something by whose voluntary and
uncompelled surrender he can help his fel.
low man and aid the work of Christ and
make the world better. Then will come
that mans trial. II he fails and cannot
make the sacrifice, nobody viii blame
him; he will simply sink into the great
multitude of honorable, respectable, self
indulgent people who take the comfort
able things which everybody says they are
entitled to, and live their easy life without
a question. But If he Is OF better stuff,
and makes the remuneration OF comfort for
a higher work. then he goes up and stands
humbv, but really. with Jesus Christ. He
enters into the other range. that other sort
of life where Jesus Christ lived. He is
perfectly satisfied with that higher life.
He does not envy, he does not grudge, the
self-indulgent lives which he has left be-
hind. He does not count up what he has
lost; he does not ask whether he IS hap
pier or less happy than he would have
been If he had kept what everybody said
he had a right TO keep. 1t Is not a ques-
tion OF happiness with him at all. but grad
ually. without his seeking IT, he finds that
the soul of the happiness which he has
left behind him is in him still Like foun-
tains OF sweet water in the sea II rises up
and keeps him a living soul. He has left

only TO draw nearer to its necessities.
