Eloquent Sermon by Rev. DR.. G.. Par
sons Nichols, Of Binghamton, on
"Consecration of Life"

Rev. G. Parsons Nichols, p. D., of the
| First Presbyterian church, at Bing-
| hamton, n. Y, occupied the pulpit ol
| the Presbyterian church at yesterday
mornings service and preached a most
eloquent and forceful sermon. taking as
subject, "Consecration of Life He
took for his text the words found In
| Matthew xvi, 25: "Whosoever shall
| save his life shall lose it and whosoever
shall lose his life for my sake shall
find it," FIe said in part:
you save not what you keep to
yourself but what you take from your
self You lose not what you give out
and part with, but what you hold back
and use for your own purposes. Self
remuneration is self exaltation.
THE man who always thinks about
his own bodily health is sure to lose it.
but he who forgets about himself in
some high pursuit leaves disease be-
hind him and goes forth sound in mind
and body. The woman who is always
studying self attainments that she may
win admiration is the one whom no one
admires. while she who loses sight of
personal attractions in the doing of
some great work is she who wins the
admiration she never seeks.
''The student who is swayed by mo-
tives higher than his own ambitions is
the one who makes the most rapid i'm
provement. while the one who seeks cul-
ture for cultures sake fails in what he
seeks.
There are just two things one can
do with his life. You can do either one
but not both. You can spenl your life
on yourself and lose it or you can yield
your life to the service OF God and
thereby attain life eternal. 1t all de-
pends on the life one seeks.
Make the present life your end and
you must lose it here and hereafter
higher end which God has in view and
you will keep your life here and save
your life hereafter. We know the only
life of many is within him, the only life
that God knows, the only life that death
leaves, is within him. My wish in clos
ing for you all is a life true. beautiful
and eternal. These will be yours just
in the degree that you live into it.
"Do not be cold, do not be cynical.
do not he selfish. but consider you have
to live for others, remember even mis-
cry comes from want Of sacrifice, re-
member YOU help others only by sac
ritice. Remember every thing you do
will be measured by it's sacrifice
The singing of several selections by
John T. Watkins were much enjoyed
by the large congregation present.

"A patriotic service was held In the

when the members of Camp No. 49,
+. o. S. of A. attended in body. 1t
was the one hundred and twenty-fourth
anniversary of the death of George
Washington, whose picture was suspen-
ded above the pulpit. The interior of
the church was decorated in the ma
tonal colors.
The choir, under the leadership Of
Prof. w. w. Jones. rendered special
programme, assisted by the simpson
Male quartette. The church was filed
with people to hear the paseor deliver a
special sermon on "rhe Ideal Citizen"
lie chose his text from Mathew xXi:21,
Render therefore unto Caesar the
things which are Caesars and unto
God the things that are Gods" An
outline of the sermon is here given.
God seeks to do some OF his work in
this world through the state. lie wants
all His people in this world to concern
themselves with the things of the world
and establish righteous relations between
ali classes of men.
George Washington WAS an ideal cti-
zen. An ideal citizen is:

CABINET CRISIS PASSED.
Combes Ministry Formed in France
 Without Ripple.

Paris, June S-The cabinet crisis has passed and the new Combes ministry has been formed without a ripple of excite ment among the general public or even in the Hobbies of the Chamber of Deputies. M. Combes, Delcasse, Trouillot, Valla, Chaumie and Marujouls are Republican radicals M. Combes is president of the Democratic group in the Senate and an eloquent orator.
 The presence of M. Rouvir, who enters the cabinet in the role of the Savior of his country's finances is a distinctly re- assuring feature though many politicians question whether the divergent views of M. Rouvir and the advanced radicals promises a long life for the ministry.

ment and superseded by the revelations of grace between God and His children.
 Free Will Offerings. 4
 ''The Bible teaches that gifts to God must be of the nature of free will of .ferings, that considerations in contract to mortgage the future in ones favor but thank offerings for divine grace in the past. Therein we devote to the Deity a portion of what he gives us as an offer ing of appreciation for his grace. the first and highest use the recipient desires to make of Gods gifth, This the Bible enjoins and commands as the substitute for the VOW, and it is the principle of the gospel of Gods grace.
 What would have been a debt Is made a devotion. It is this that the Lord teaches in the parable of the labor CTS in the vineyard. Our need Is abund- ant occasion for God to give, for at his throne we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Thus with the substance he has given us we may honor him with the thank offering"
 Dr. Davidson closed with an appeal to men to give themselves and all they are and have to God, who in Christ had given Himself for and to them.
