A CITY'S OUTPoURING.
The day closed with Il remarkable
scene. AS soon as the sun had set.
thus ending the Sabbath-not even for
healing would many of these Jews VIC
late their traditions-crOwds began to
gather about the cor of Simon's house.
1t was a wonderful spectacle. For with
the merely curious were to be seen
great numbers Of sick men, women and
children. The east is heir to a hundred
peculiar Ills, and the pathetic picture
OF the throng OF American parents be-
sieging DIR. Lorenz for the healing Of
their children on his visit to America
was nothing to compare with his sad
sunset picture beside one Of Caper-
naum's lOwly homes.
The whole city was seeking Jesus.
and bearing its ailing ones to his feet.
A heart of stone would have been
touched by the spectacle; and we know
that the sensitive soul Of Jesus did not
look upon 1t unmoved. He healed the
sick-a general statement SO easy to
make and yet so filled with meaning to
Inc individuals ranSOmed from pain
and cast out the devils, not even per-
hitting the latter to speak. Thus the
Dusy day closed and when the weary
Healer retired to rest, 1t was to rise
early. "a great while before day." in
order that his w spirit might be re-
newed and strengthened by a season
OF prayer In the desert place apart.
"sIGNS" AND SERVICE.
The question of miracles and Why
hey We're wrought arises in this CON
nectfon. The subject Is an old one
ana n big one, but 1t may be made
clearer to the average person, perhaps,
by remembering two simple facts. The
later and better word for miracles Ia
signs" they were sl0ns Of Christ's d.
vinity. visible a~ttestations that he was
more than human. Any man, however
unlettered. could read these signs. and
1t is plain throughout the gospel mar
rative that by his miracles the fame
of Jesus was most widely spread
abroad.
These miracles of helpfulness were
the natural fruits of Christ's character,
They were for the service of the needy,
and expressions Of the great love and
compassion which welled up In his
heart toward all mankind. The doc
trine which Jesus taught by his life,
no less han by his words, was q doc
trine of usefulness. He ~vindicated his
claims by his service. and in the same
way the church must prove herself to-
day. She Is the worlds teacher, but
also the worlds servant. And by her
sacrificing ministry to the manifold
needs of mems souls and bodies she
proves that she still has within her

The transformations wrought by lov
may be seen all around US. A care-freN
girl, bent wholly upon the pleasures Of thu
hour. and her mind filled with the inno-
cent tribes Of girlhood. comes under the
sway of love. 10. at once, we behold the
child of yesterday transformed into wom-
anhood. strong In character, brave In suf-
fering, cheerful amid difficulty, her hus-
bands wisest counselor and most helpful
comradc. Every day this miracle Of love
Is being enacted on every side. So Is that
greater miracle OF the transformation eff
fected by the love of Jesus. Under the
dominion Of this new affection and pur-
pose the weak-willed become resolute;
the troning become purposeful: the ILL
tempered become serious and self-re-
strained; the passionate become gentle:
the profane become clean of speech: the
drunkards become sober: the goddess be-
come g0dly. Ranking in importance and
Significance with the miracles performed
during his earthly ministry are those
which the love OF Jesus Is bringing to
pass day by day before our eyes.
Whoever Is for Christ is also for the
world.
Capacity for love is the measure of soul
greatness. Therefore IL Christ could live
the whole world of men and as his fol-
lowers grow into his spirit their interest,"
in and devotion to their fellowmen
widens.
There are doubtless some followers of
Jesus who look upon him as a Christ for
the English-speaking. or for Presbyte-
rians or Roman Catholics. or for some
other particular race or creed. That is
because they are still babes in faith. Az
they grow older they will lose the narrow
ness and p~rovincialism which through all
the centuries since Calvary has been such
an impediment to the Kingdoms progress.
and they will come to know the Savior as
the whole worlds Christ. To him the dis
tinctions between man and man count
for as little as the trifing inequalities Of
the earth beneath our feet which we daily
tread mean to us. He loved the whole
world: yet that inclusive owe does not
hinder him from bestowing all the full
ness OF his affection upon the least of his
friends.
