yilayets of kossava and Monastir; thus
bordering on eastern Roumelia, Bull
garia, Servia and Montenegro; con-
siderable territory. The mass OF the
population to the south is Greek in its
sympathies, while to the north the peo-
pie are "Slav in language, manners, GUS
toms, names and aspirations. THE Bull
garians, who live in the north, are large
~ engaged in agriculture; in the cities
the ruling Turks and the Greeks form
the commercial class, though the Bull
garians are beginning to GUST the lat
ter. At the foot of the mountains are
clustered various Albanian villages, and
the Albanians inhabit almost exclusive
ly part of the northwest territory.
When one calls to mind that the Mo-
hammedan brigand, a cruel rather than
picturesque outlaw, preys upon travel
err and villager, one realizes there are
disturbing elements plenty In this
land. Squabbles in regard to religion
and schools have been numerous among
these different folk, but do not consti-
| tute the whole of the Macedonian prob
| lem, as is believed by not few. The Bull
garian church separated from the Greek
| church in 1870, and since that time the
/ question of religion has divided Greek
| and Bulgarian. Add to this religious
| incompatibility the fanaticism of the
| Mussulman and one gets further idea
of the state of affairs in unquiet Mace
| donia.
Macedonia, with its magnificent for
ests. wild mountains, and beautiful
streams is a land of grand picturesque
ness. Much of Macedonia is fertile
fruit and grain richly rewarding the cul-
tivator, but wars ravages interfere ter
ribly with the development of the coun
try's resources.
The Bulgarians have been great mix
ers in the Macedonian troubles, If nv
instigators of it all. Their ideas, anC
the methods employed and directed b,
them to attain the freedom OF Mace
donia. seem to the world at large some
what peculiar, to say the least This 1
the plan, as again understood by tn
laymen-by going themselves int
Macedonia and numbering bands @
Turks to stir the Turks to retaliate b
cruel massacres OF Christian Mace
: domains; and then for the powers to in
teryene in behalf of the prosecute
, Christians. 1t is a little hard on tn
[ Christians, to be sure, but, according
the reasoning of the Bulgarian revolt

tan. The Macedonians have also had
the example of Crete for encourage
ment; but Macedonia is not an Island,
and the Macedonians have the fate OF
both the Armenians and Thessalians to
warn them that on the mainland the
Turk cannot be resisted by half-drilled
forces"
Put Greeks, Bulgarians and Turks to-
gether, and it goes without saying that
peace will depart from their joint abode.
The fiery Greek, the willy Turk, the rev.
dictionary Bulgarian, none of them are
wont to turn the other cheek to the
smiter. Broils within, egged on by
broilers without, thus to the layman ap-
pears the situation in Macedonia.
Macedonia, just where is it? We all
know more or less about old classic
Macedonia and her vaguely outlined ter
ritory; but modern Macedonia? Her
limits, people, government?
Macedonia, q part of European Tur-
key, lies between Bulgaria and the
Aegean sea, and comprises the vilayet

PERILS OF PRIVILEGE.
Position, Family and Wealth All
Mean Added Responsibility for
Those Exceptionally Favored.

Christ taught a proportionate re-
sponsibility, says the Boston Congre-
gationalist TO whosoever much is
given, OF him much shall be required;
and TO whom they commit much, of
him Will they ask the more" Greatgifts
and privileges, therefore, carry with
them a corresponding danger. This
is SO with personal gifts, it is doubly
so with our relation to corporate bod
les in which we hold a membership.
The strong man likes to use his
strength. He may use it for evil, but
he is not likely to let it lie unused.
In the parable it is not the one who
has ten talents who hides them away
unused. The great danger is more
frequently with the weak, who rest
upon the attainment of others, and
fail to exert and improve what
strength they have. The perils aris-
ing from privileges are most frequent
ly the perils of the weak and the few
talented.
One such peril is that of narrowness
of view. Prosperity is, on the whole,
exceptional, but the thoughtless mem
bers of a successful church or COM
pany are apt to fall out of sympathy
with the unsuccessful members. Men,
bers of strong churches hear with
some Impotence the call for help e
mission fields. They are used TO
strength, their Imagination is too feeble
to enable them to sympathize with
the struggle and hardship in which
all great work begins. The personal
oil hn
9us through Inheritance, have little
patience with poverty or misfortune,
which too often seem like crimes. But
to be unsympathetic is to be dead to
the fellowship of believers, to whom
Christ prophesied that they must suf-
fer tribulation.
In the same way, pride of family is
often treated as if It were a virtue
which the owner had himself &C
luired, instead of a responsibility
which God has laid upon him. This
view OF good descent as ground of
personal merit is as common as it is
amusing, but it easily becomes peril
to the soul. The same is often true
Of national pride, which also is Gods
call to great responsibilities. To be
an American is only a matter of choice
! to those who are not born Americans
To be a good American is a RESPONSE
bility and an opportunity. The dan
ger is that we may think that because
America is SO strong we can afford to
| be weak or careless citizens. To be
en- American is little. Three assas-
sins of three presidents have been
Americans by birth or choice. But
!, TO be the right sort of an American is
much.
/ The church is made up Of men who
lift, and men who lean. of men who
are feeders of strength, and men who
are parasites. The world is in need
of whole-souled, unanimous, growing
and Christ-like church. 1t is a peril
Of privilege if any disciple believes
that this need does not include his
own enthusiasm and growth toward
strength. The strong can never help
the weak as they might do, until every
ichurch has ali the working force al
It's disposal which God has given. The
bracing atmosphere of struggle may be
far better for the soul than confidence
in the attachments and the strength
of which we are part, but to which
we contribute nothing. H -.,
