chris, and Common Tasks.

Doubtless there are thousands OF
consccrated and jealous Christians
who compelled TO cxpcnd their chief
life force upon plain tasks In humble
spheres. are inclined TO regret that
their place or calling is not moro
friendly 10 spiritual development.
Here IL. for instance. a spiritually
aspiring young man. who Is troubled
because his daily work. though limo.
cent In itself. serves as constant
drag upon his spiritual nature. instead
Of an encouragement TO his spiritual
progress. How much easier II would

II he might be employed In writing
editorials for n religious magazine, or
teaching In a college. or preaching tho
Gospel. instead of cndlcssly adding IN

looks especially friendly TO moral ca.
pansion and spiritual frultfulness.
But two things may be said. First OF
all. these occupations that look most
friendly to the growth Of the soul have
their own peculiar temptations 10 spir.

In themselves us helpful To spiritual
progress as they seem. And In tho
next place. the main question for u

Is. but the spirit In which We do II. II
is quite as easy for the worker 10 re-.

glorlfy the worker. Because there
