necessary and the sufficient. He never
repeats himself. There is only one Isa-
iah, only one st. Paul, only one John the
Baptist, only one Cromwell, only one
Washington. only one Lincoln, and there
is only one Christ. only one risen Christ.
The world needs no more. and, as 1 said
before. God is the great economist. He
is scrupulously exact and just in the use
of the eternal forces. The world needs
only one Saviour. only one Christ. and
God has given us only one Saviour. only
one Christine risen Lord. who was and

the life.-Rev. Dr. Joseph Milburn, Con-
gregationalist, Chicago
WHAT GOD DESIRES OF MEN.
God led his people out of bondage
and gave them liberty In their dark
est and most discouraging hours God
never fOrSOOk them. They had the pres
ence of Moses as friend and guide.
They went through many hard and
trying experiences. but at last they ar
rived at the end of their destination
and entered Canaan. So it is with U.S.
Now we are on our hard and dangerous
journey. There are enemies on every
side. Often we are discouraged. We
faint under our heavy loads. We muir
muir against the providences of God
This is not what God desires us to do.
We are to learn patience, to trust God,
to go forward under the guidance of the
great leader. JESUS Christ. until at LAST
the end of the journey will come,
and we shall enter our heavenly Canaan
and be forever with our God.-Rev. Dr.
David G. Wylie, Scotch Presbyterian,
New York.
INFALLIBLE GUIDANCE.
We need guidance to know when to
speak, when to smile. when to frown,
when to direct. when to enter upon
public or private enterprises, TO whom
TO trust our hand. our heart, our prop
erty, to know what to believe where
there is conflict or doubt. But there is
a power that can decide in all these
cases. The impulse that so often guides
in the common affairs of life is like the
higher impulse that comes direct from
God. The more we have of his spirit
the more habitual becomes this instinc-
tive guidance. This will enable us to
decide between right and wrong. to tell
the true from the false. to tell where to
go and where not to 60 when to speak
and when not to speak. when to preach
and when to pray when to lead others
and when to hold back. There is such
power. Jesus Christ revealed it to us
as the spirit of God, and he will guide
you into all truth. Rev. DR.. Russell
H. Conwell, Baptist, Philadelphia

RELIGIOUS THOUGHT.
Gems Cleaned from the Teachings of
All Denominations.

The final redemption of the world
would not be far off if we could only
bring Jesus in touch with all mankind
Rev. Dr. Frank De Witt Talmage,
Presbyterian, Chicago.
THE PROVIDENCE OF GOD.
Men of today cannot see Gods prov
idence. God is angry with the sinner
every day, but there is good will be-
hind the anger-Rev- L. c. Barnes,
Baptist. Worcester. Mass.
APPRECIATING THE DIVINE
MEANING.
The minds of men in every quarter of
the intellectual and moral earth are get
ting ready to appreciate the divine
meaning in man and nature-Rev. S. c.
Ely, Swedenborgian, St. Louis.
TRUE WORSHIP.
God may be worshiped as an abstract.
an omnipotent something, and such
worship may be only dreamy and
dreary mysticism. The true worship
lovingly and reverently seizes hold of
or broods upon the divine nature.-Rev.
DR.. Barrows. Oberlin, o.
DEATH IN IMMORTALITY.
No greater hindrance to progress
could possibly come no greater blight
could fall upon human operations, no
greater blow could be struck at moral
attainment. than to persuade men that
there is no hereafter and that death is
the final visitor.-Rev. William Rob
n
CHARM OF HOMES.
The charm and cement of a home are
child life. Landlords deny this boon to
the city home of today. The time VIII
provide Fairgrounds for children and
shortly be here when the law will COM
pei the owners of apartment houses to
receive them into their buildings.-Rev-
Wilson NJ. Backus, Unitarian. Chicago.
THE TRUE LIFE.
We do not die when we leave here,
but merely shed our soul of its material
incumbrance and depart to another
world. where we continue to live out
our existence in a sphere of greater ac-
tivity and without the discomforts of
having to attend to any material wants.
-Rev,.W. E. Bentley, Episcopalian, New
THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
Jesus did not mean the church when
he said Kingdom of Cod The church
is a good thing, but the kingdom IS a
thousand times better. The church Is
exclusive and separative, the kingdom
unifying and inclusive. The church re-
uuires assent to a creed for admission;
the kingdom embraces all good of every
race and nation.-Rev. ]. T. Bradley,
Methodist, Atlanta. Ga.
GODS IAIMEASURABLE LOVE.
Ones capacity to love is the measure
of possible sufferings Gods love was
embodied in Jesus Christ. All human
love is but an effect. is but reflection
of Gods love, is but a stream from the
fountain of Gods love or. rather. but a
drop out of the boundless ocean of the
affection of our Heavenly Father. Com
bine all mother love, the love of all
mothers of all ages, and raise the sum
total to its highest possible purity and
power, and what is it but a single
beam from the infinite sun of Gods
love ?-Rev. DR.. W. W. Landrum, Bap-
fist. Atlanta. Ga.

beginning of the summer. Seventeen
hundred vouchers have reached the

TO the distribution of the relief fund
of $50 900 voted at the national meet
ing of the order. OF this number 233
vouchers have been sent in from Shaw
nee county alone. Vouchers have been
forwarded from every locality in the
United States where members of the
Modern Woodmen suffered damaged
from this years floods.
Considerable care has been used in
securing accurate information regard
ing the losses sustained by WOOdmeu.
To accomplish this a form of voucher
has been prepared. In it the applicant
tor aid sets forth the total value of his
property prior to the flood; his total
losses in property. time and sickness,
and the number of his family or those
dependent upon him for support Of
the number of vouchers sent in a cons
siderable number may be rejected. The
division of the $4,000 among those who
sustained losses Will not admit of a
very large contribution to individuals.
However the relief work of the order
will be of very material assistance to
those whose property was hurt by the
high water.
