There are few things that have an
enduring human interest. The sub
ject which engrosses our attention to-
day is apt to be forgotten tomorrow,
and that which viii hold the attention
Of humanity from year to year must
be something Of real and permanent
value. One Of the most effective tes
timonies to the inherent value of the
Holy Scriptures is found in the su-
premacy which they enjoy over all
other forms Of literature. The Bible
to-day is the one book Of supreme in
terest 10 all mankind. Notwithstand-
ing the immense volume Of books
which are published bearing upon all
subjects Of human interest, there is a
large and constant demand for copies
of the Book Of Books which far ex-
eeeds the call for any other publiea-
tion. and which shows no signs Of
diminution. From every possible
point Of view the Bible is a book Of
supreme value. AS a masterpiece Of
literature il is without a peer In the
English language. AS a textbook Of
morality it is superior to the ablest
treatise on ethics which has ever been
written. AS a guide in spiritual mat
ters it is the one infallible rule Of
faith and practice, the sole and sufi-
cient fountain of heavenly inspiration
which has been youchsafed to man for
his guidance and instruction in the
way Of salvation.

God bestows holiness: man accepts.
The Spirit points out sin; the sancti-
fed heart battles against It. Holiness
comes into the heart as a purifier, Gre
ating a sensitiyeness subtle enough to
discern the powers and principalities
that hold warfare against righteous
ness and perfection Of life.
In a truly sanctifed heart the Cod
ward and the manward side ever re-
veal themselves most forcibly-e each
one a counterpart to the other; neither
able alone to accomplish the fulness,
but together producing a harmony Of
life in direct communion with the
Father, and imparting his spirit to the
world.
A life possessed with this divine
attribute laughs with the heavens,
leaps with the streams and sings with
the birds. He overcomes sin, is tri-
umphant in trial, endures to the end,
and his reward is a crown of glory
that shall never fade away He stands

Father, and, as a diadem, shines in In
