tuity and security of nation, race OF
community depends upon the higI
Christian standard attained J

Unity is not unit, but 9
unity. SO is every true man and every
true organization. What is wanted in
all true life is plurality in unity
Rev. w. H. Nugent Episcopalian, Chi
cago, III.
Love and Passion.-Passlon wants
selfish qualification, but the joy OF love
is In sharing with the beloved object
even In emptying ourselves for that
dear one.-Rey. q. D. Warf1eld, Bap.
tist, Easton, Pa.
Feeling and Judgment Religion
must be formed of both feeling and
judgment. Without the one 1t will be
fanatlcism; without the other it will
be formallty.-Rev. l.. S. Wilkinson,
Methodist, Pittsburg, Pa.
Temptation.-The man who makes
up his mind to put himself in a place
to be tempted has already half fallen.
In the realm of trial enough is best
TOO much is ruln.-Rev. H. 8. Brad
ley, Methodist, Atlanta, Ga.
The Music Of Life.-Life's music is
never in the white keys nor black, but
in the soul that sweeps them with
skilled fingers. Rail not at the keys
but grid your soul to the divine mas
tery.-Rev. T. S. Eldridge, Methodist
Brooklyn, N. Y.
Eulogy.-Don't wait until a man Ia
gone to express your sympathy and eu-
logies. The flowers and kind words
will not do him any good then. The
world now has too much epitaphy ard
too little taffy.-Rev, Thomas UTzzel,
Independent, Denver, Col.
Know Thyself.-None of us knows
another perfectly; perhaps we do not
know ourselves. The mathematical
table we know, but the knowledge of
manhood is higher and more secret and
difficult to gain.-Rev. w. S. Baer,
Episeopalian, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Holiness.-The history of mankind
shows that we must not seek holiness
IN order to God, but God In order to
holiness. Christ must come into the
soul Of man with His divine life, and
not till then, are we in harmony with
the hollness.-Rev. r. B. Hull, Bap-
tist, Brooklyn, N. Y.
The Strenuous Life.-To live tho
strenuous life, the rough riders life,
in the saddle, and pistol in hand, is
accepted as the ideal worthy of a true
man, while faith is regarded as pusil-
animous and destined to contempt as
well as failure.-ReY. T. H. Lewis,
Lutheran, Westminster, Md.
COntent.-There is much pleasure in
this life for even the man of small
means, If his soul is right with God
No one is poor who is rich in content
ment. No one is wealthy even though
he may be rich, whose soul does not
wear this jewel-content.- l.. r.
Dyott, Congregationallst, Brooklyn, N.
Y.
Commerclalism. Commercalsm
presents a good side ii it gilds the COM
mon experience of life with hope and
foregleams the better day of the ideal
lst. Mere things help in making more
man. Manhood is the supreme test
Of the ultimate goal of effort.-Rev.
r. q. Potterton, Episcopalian, Brook
lyn, N. Y.
The Devil.-Never before in the his
tory Of the world has the devil had
so much power as now. With an ex-
perience of 5000 years behind him,
and with his increase of knowledge
and wisdom, he is working greater de-
struction in the world than ever be.
fore.-Rev. A. r. Holderby, Methodist,
Ga.
Greatness. - People to-day, some
times judge greatness by physical
standard. Men who command armies
are great. Largeness is often taken
up for greatness, but physical force
Is not necessarily greatness. True
greatness, however, is composed Of |
ethical and spiritual elements.
Rev. l. J. PERTH, Methodist, Syra-
cuse, N. Y.
Preachers-The small preacher is
the servant of a sect and the special
pleader for Its dogma; the great
preacher is he who is the servant Of
the spirit of truth, who brings to us
greater and larger than any
sect or scheme, who brings us face
10 face with the Eternal that is in Him
and in us.--Rev. w. H. Ramsay, Uni
Louisville, Ky.

Parent and Child.-When parents
ire lax in their morals, careless In
heir family devotions and Indifferent
o the services of the church and Sun
lay school, what may be expected Of
he children? The responsibility is
