motive to real action that they viii
recognize. The everlasting penalty
for an unrepentant sinful life still has
its place in the creeds of the churches.
The Presbyterian church recently re-
affirmed it and the Massachusetts,
State Association of Congregational
Churches lately refused TO set aside
or alter its old creed with this clause
in 1t. About the only way TO get
around the Scriptural statements,
which are quite explicit, is to say that
they are fguratiye or to claim that
the persistently unrepentant soul is
finally extinguished; this has been
decided relief to the bad man, for he
does not like TO contemplate an
eternity of punishment The Scrip
lures taken as they read, however,
show the sharpest contrast between
the future state of the repentant and
unrepentant; it is the dread of dark
future that has opened the eyes of
many man to his evil courses and led
him to turn to God.
There is higher fear which. when
1t is effectually preached, is more pow
erful than the lower fear in leading
men into the ways of righteousness.
1t is fear, on the part of men, not of
being lost or punished forever, but
with glorious opportunities and pos
sibilities lest they should fail to real
lie them. With work of the highest
kind for their fellow men and the
service of God, it is a fear lest they
should not attain to that which is ex-
pected of them. The dread, of some
students in school is lest they shall
fail in examinations and be placed in
a lower class; the fear of others is lest
they should not win first rank and the
prizes; the effort of the first is to get
through, If only on the smallest mar
gin, to be saved from disgrace.
The higher fear is the incentive to
larger attainment in the Christian
life; the motive in Christian culture
and education. Prof. Huxley once
said; 1 protest that If some great
power would agree to make me always
think what is true and, do what is
right, on condition of being turned
into sort of clock and wound up
every morning, I should instantly
close with the offer. The New Testa-
ment makes that offer, but not on the
clock condition; certainly those men
in the early times closed with Christ's
offer and found in the fear lest they
should not attain to the greatest
things a sufficiently strong motive to
set every power in them to work at its
best.
The maker of the lower fear is sin;
no man sins against his body. mind
or soul but that he fears the penalty.
The maker of the higher fear is
love; no man loves with his whole
heart but that he fears to offend the
object of his love; he strives to be
worthy of that which moves his whole
being.-Chicag Advance.

A DANGEROUS MAN.


Of all the strange methods iD-
vented by man to separate him from
his trouble the strangest is that de-
vised by one Jose Diaz of the City
of Mexico. Jose had a stomach
ache. To cure it he made a bolus Of
dynamite and inserted in it deto-
mating cap, to which was attached a
thread of copper wire. He swal-
lowed the bolus and with the cop
per wire hanging from his lips went
out to seek an electrical connection.
He met a policeman first and un-
der questioning explained the situa-
ton After an official consultation
Jose was taken into the suburbs.
He was made to lie down, and Z
long rope was fastened to his feet.
Then the copper wire was made fast
to fence, and three policemen at
the other end of that long rope
drew Jose and the detonator apart.
The dynamite remained in his in
terror department, however, and
Jose is now SsI1ned as dangerous
character.

Anxious thoughts sometimes perplex
the wife who sees maternity before her.
If she is treading an untried path, she
sometimes frets herself into nervous
condition which is injurious and pros
trating. If motherhood has already been
a painful experience she is apt to shrink
from the coming trial and by her very
mental anxiety increase the. possibility
of her suffering.
There is no cause for anxiety for those
prospective mothers who use DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t tranquilizes
the nerves, encourages the appetite, in
duces refreshing sleep and produces
mental cheerfulness as we'll as physical
vigor. 1t gives strength and muscular
elasticity so that the baby's advent is
practically painless. 1t is the best tonic
for nursing mothers.
