forgets to make.

A man does not have to go to
Heaven by freight simply because he
cannot express himself in meeting.
The preacher can never be sure Of
the attention OF his audience when he
is uncertain OF his own intention.
There are too many praying, Lead
US not into temptation" while they are
looking at the pictures in the devils
gallery.
The devil OF drink is having a hard
time sitting up nights to think out new
names and fetching advertisements for
his goods.
When the Christian rises above such
small details as telling the truth and
dealing honestly God is going to let
him drop hard
II Sunday does not open door into
higher things II Is apt to be trap
into lower.
The clearest thought In the pulpit
will not cover up crooked tracks

Perhaps the most difficult problem we
have to solve in our Christian living is
how rightly to correlate the duty Of self.
development and the duty of self.devotion.
When yielding to a strong impulse to self.
development we too often forget to devote
ourselves, and when coming under the
sway of sentiment of.self.devotion we are
ant 10 neglect our sef.deve'opment. But
selfneg!ect is not self.sacrifice; self.waste
Is not self.deyouon. The Great Benefac-
tor OF mankind blessed the world not simp.
ly by. laying down His life but through
the richness, of the life He laid down.

Faith and FaithfuIness.

,, Meanings of words are not accidental.
Words, like pebbles by the roadside, are
histories in themselves. The words faith"
as il the added sylables had changed the

Faithfulness is constancy in the fulfillment
OF known duties, Yet what but faith can
secure faithfulness? Being full OF faith
