AN EASTER SERMON.

The Christian Endeavor topic for March
80 is THE Risen Life The texts are
found in Luke XIV, LIP; Col. ill.,, ITO.
The inspiring anthem of the queen of
festival days is the one which declares,
THE Lord is Risen!" The Christian
world rejoices today in the crowning fact
of its history-the resurrection of Jesus
Christ. For if Christ be not risen from
the dead, then is our faith in Him in vain
and our hopes in Him will perish. But
now is Christ risen from the dead and
hath become the first fruits Of them that
slept"
And what is this risen life:
/. Christ's risen life is a historical
fact. The record of the lesson a histor-
zeal record. 1t is not the recitation of a
myth or of a deception. The enemies of
Christ in their cautiouspeSS made trick
proofs Of this historic certainty. The
friends Of Christ in their ignorance Of
the true meaning Of His prophesies con-
bined their testimony with that of his
resurrection and were surprised beyond
measure when it actually came to pass.
Thus friend and foe contribute their part
to the establishment of the certainty of
the most important fact IN the woIld's
history.
2 Christ's risen life Is a testimony to
the genuinaness Of the Christian religion.
Christianity stands OF falls with the res
being established beyond all doubt, Chris
tianity stands firm and established with
it.
8. Christs risen life is a guarantee that
we saal rise again. But now is Christ
risen from the dead and hath become the
first fruits of them that slept" Christ
rose as the first fruits. which are al
ways a guarantee of the fruition of that
which is still in the ungrown state The
first ripcne1 sheaf is proof positive that
the rest of the grain will ripen. 50 the
resurrection of Christ is an actual dem
onstratl0n of the doctrine of the resur-
rection of all men.
4. Christi risen life is the comfort
hope and inspiration of His people in all
ages and under all chimes.

Easter SUNDAY.
THE RISEN SAVIOR.


Christ is risen! Let the swell
OF the holy Easter bell
All the Won' drouS story tell:
How the Man OF Nazareth,
Win His faint, expiring breath,
GAINED the Vict'ry over death;
How within the tomb's embrace
once reposed the sainted tace
OF the Savior of the race.
On that far-off EastertiIe:
How the grave was opened wide,
And He lived who had but died.
Thus the Holy Work was done,
AND the triumph had been won
BY The Father through the Son.
Teach me, Lord, to love thy way
Ere my feet have learned to stray
Or my lips forget to pray.
Now, o Lord, so many rise,
FILLED with earthly Vanities.
Who Thy gentle truths desplse,
But Thy bread is fair to eat,
ana the lowly path is sweet,
Irodden by Thy sacred feet.
Sound, o bell, your dulcet ring!
Lltl, . child, your voice and sing
For again has come the King.
And, fair lily, lift your head;
All your sweetest incense shed;
Christ is risen from the dead!

THE EASTER BONNETs.

Sing no to the Easter bonnet
With a lot of strings upon 1t
New ana bright,
And the avenue parade
OF the maidens all arrayed
For the sight
For sweet the Easter faces
That brighten up the places
Where they go,
With their holdings and their SnllllnG
And our mannish hearts begullng,
AS they know.
Not a man but likes the showing
Of the bonnets in their going
Up the street,
And our admiration rightly
Do we give-the sight is slightly
And a treat.
So let's hang the bills for dollars
That are stiff enough for collars,
Yea and high,
And pray for decent weather
For the Witching maiden's feather
So say l.
For I loved one Easter bonnet
With lot of strings upon it,
Bright and gay,
For the face that's just below 1t,
And l care not if you know it,
Right away.

content with the Lords own reason, For
am | not yet assembled to My Father?'
The inference is that before the other
women met Him He had assembled to HIS
Father and returned. During the forty
days He evidently assembled and returned,
many times before the visible ascension,
since which he has not yet returned. Her
tears were dried, her heart was glad and
she went as His messenger to comfort
she told them the wonderful story they
would not believe her. Neither did they
as first believe the two who saw Him
later on the same day, and when, in the
evening, He appeared unto the eleven He
upbraided them with their unbelief.
