pause Some years ago Dr. A. T. Pier son wrote book on the New Acts Of the Apostles" in which he showed that sthe world could be cvanS Selzed in a very short time. Not long after ha made tour of the mission he.ds O. the world and saw the confusion and felt the deadness, and when he returned he said the world could be exangelized in a few years, but that 1t never would be. Mir Moody, more than ten years ago, predicted great re- vival of religion and 1t has not come vet. Campbell Morgan and B. T. Myer felt the deadness to such an extent that they were constrained to leave their pulpits and go from city to city to deepen the spirituality of the churches, but no very striking results have followed their com mendable and honest efforts. And the question is, why7
 The answer is not far to seek We are living in the fullest circumstances in the history of man and are in possession Jf the largest Knowledge of all the ages and there never has been a race specially pIous when life was easy. Nations ss well as individuals generally lean their dependence on God, when God so 10 speak, closes his hand against thefn If you study the past you will find in Israel 8 time the people were religious in times of emptiness; and in modern life nations have acknowledged God in times or plague and famine.
 Now man is so completely the master CT his surroundings that he controls what controlled his fathers. Sanitation, under modern science has destroyed plague ard we dredge Havana's harbor and turn it's filth to the sun and no longer think Of yellow fever in these United States.

Now then, in all this splendid materialism what Is going to save usf answer the same old faith in God and in the wisdom of His purposes to build a Kingdom for man where heart and soul shall have the fullest life. II may be that the enormous aggregation of wealth, which marked the last century and to 8 greater extent will mark this century, is Intended by God for the bringing of a new point of value to the world wherein man shall form one parr of the equation and all material gain the other, when man shall be too sacred to injure for gold and when gold will be too cheap to hoard at the cost of mans physical, in- tellectual or spiritual growth.
 The old Faith.
 Tn the meantime, my young friends, keep the old faith in God and observe the old times for prayer and let not the growing life of this city blind you with it's fullness Neither let the coming days of prosperity make you arrogant to man, your brother, nor indifferent to God. your maker and keeper. And if failure take you, keep your piety in the time of your want and believe in God, though you be stripped in the race of life

The lronmaster at East Lake.

Tonight the Weston Darlington Stock company produce for the first time here MT. and Mrs. Kendal's great fve-act so- ciety play, 'FThe Ironmaster." Miss Car rington's company will appear to excel lent advantage. When the company was playing in the Maritime provinces last winter 1t won a splendid reputation for their work in plays like "The Lost Para disc" Young Mrs. winthrop" "The Charity Ball." "The Wife" "The Mid dlemen.' etc. and "The Ironmaster" is of the same class.
 The climaxes of the various acts are all very strong and the comedy is frequent and amusing. Miss Darlington has in the role of Claire a splendid character, and she will be highly successful in the same and wear some beautiful gowns. Miss Proctor will be seen In strong charac- ter also as the adventures. Miss Power and Miss Graham are both excellently cast. Kendall Weston has in "The Iron master" a charming reading part in which he has appeared many times. The other gentlemen of the company are all cast to good advantage and two or three of the scenes will be most elaborate.
 The special car service at 8, 8:10 and 20 continues and the outdoor extra att fractions are of the best.
