M0RMONIsM is DENOUNCED.

BY Or. John Merrifte Driver, Chicago.
No beast of the desert, no serpent in
the jungle has been so fiendishly and
persistently sinned against as man has
sinned against woman. Take, for ex-
ample, polygamy. Polygamy was in
stituted ut the very gate of Eden-but
on the outside. The sweet and sublime
ideal of wifely and husbandly equal
ity was lost in the beginning and was
never recovered until the coming of
the great Burden Bearer. For 1000
years while one husband constituted
one-half the marriage compact it re-
ouired from two 10 1000 wives to con-
stitute the other half. The history of
every land and age and people is scar
let and crimson with this most revolt
ing barbarity and abOmination. Even
Columbia to-day hangs her head in
shame ard beseeches her guests from
foreign lands to avoid Utah and the
five contiguous states and territories
lest her foulness and corruption be
discovered.
Nor does Chicago escape the curse
and menace. Mormon missionaries
swarm in our city. They line our
streets. they lombard us with their
literature. they knock at our doors,
they force themselves into our HON >.

FAITH IN ATONEMENT.

oJ NCbs 'TOFtUH -. HdFtZeH.
The Church of Christ is regaining
her faith in the sacrificial death of her
Lord. The atonement is believed in
now not merely upon scriptural author
ity. There is no more for the modern
man any such thing as an infallible
book or an infallible church. But in
our free and fearless study of the
basal facts of human life we are rec
ognizing more clearly than ever before
the supreme place of conscience in man
toward his neighbor and his God
Morality and religion are the founda-
tons of life and sin is the archtreason
against self and brother and heavenly
Father. Thus once more is seen the
eternal fitness of The cross. To-day, as
ever, the world needs to know that
Gods love is holy love; that forgive
ness must make for righteousness; that
sin is the eternal foe of love human
and divine.
The infinite love of God giving ex-
preston in the cross of Christ TO the
horror and agony of sin that all may
see there forever the divine protest
against sin even In the act of draw
ing all sinners unto his loving heart
this is the overwhelming tenderness
that awakcns repentance and hope and
action in the deadened human heart.
