that churches die when they are con-
tent to discuss definitions of the In6n-
ite. while those who are made in his
likeness are stunted, dwarfed, and
snuffed out by greed and shame.
Some Christians know more about
the anatomy of an angel than they do
about the pathology of the poor. Yet
no living being ever saw an angel,
while the poor we always have with us.
The noblest divinity is simple human
ity. The most glorious religious serv-
ice is simply doing the things for one
another that we believe the all loving
God would do if he we're one of us.
Church work may be as far from
Christ's work as the east is from the
west. 1t is easy to mistake fuss and
feathers for faith. The master never
worried over congregations, or chors,
or canonicals. He left those things to
the people who opposed him and
brought him to death. He simply did
the good he could, never counting the
cost to himself; he simply spoke the
truth he knew, never calculating the
consequences. The working creed
wastes 10 energy on definitions while
men are doing; it walks In the Teach.
ers way; it does his work.
The need of religion is not some COM
prehensiye scheme of saving the world
10y machinery; it is not some automatic
social propogandum which will wipe
out the slum, clean up crime and make
this world a highly desirable place of
residence for respectable people. The
preparation Of such plans me be left to
the unfortunates who lack the heart or
the energy to engage in any definite
work.
Neither does it need alone a mighty
wave of indignation against modern
pharasaism and hypocrisy, nor fasting
over our own faults, nor feeding the
hungry with the tears of our sympa.
thy, copously, generously poured out
in the comfort of our reading chairs.
The need is simple; practical religion
is the easiest of all. 1t is to do tine
good that lies nearest you; neither to
lecture on it, nor to weep over it, noi
even to pray over it until you have
done it, Deeds of love, not dreams oI

head than to be the author OF the mos

Intemperance in Sleep.

AS for sleep, that is another prevail
ing form of intemperance. People
sleep to much. They drug themselves
with sleep. If a man will only try to
get along with less sleep he will be sur
prised to discover how little he really
needs. And he will find his faculties
very much improved by the effort.
1t is not so much the quantity as the
quality OF sleep that counts. The man
who lies eight or ten hours in bed, toss
ing about from time to time, doesn' t
get anything like as much rest as the
man who sleeps soundly for five or six
hours.
We are slaves to sleep. Why, for iu.
stance, should we 60 to sleep at nightf
The only difference between night and
day is that the sun goes down in one
case and comes up in the other. What
difference should that make? l sup

through thousands of years of ances
try. We have become like the chick
ems, who go to roost when it is dark

A Working Greed.
By Henry F. Cope.

"Is not this the fast that l haye
chosen? to loose the bands of wicked
ness, to undo the heavy burdens, and
let the oppressed go free and that ye
break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy
bread to the hungry, and that thou
bring the poor that are cast out into
thy e?"-Isaiah So, 81.
working creed is creed that works.
The demand for practical religion is
not modern discovery. 1t would be
hard for the most sensational denun.
ciators of mere sentimentalism in re-
ligion to use stronger language than
did those old prophets of Israel. Re-
ligion always has been either practice
or pretense 1t has its deep tides of
feeling, but it never ends in these the
the deeper the emotion the more defin-
ite will be its expression. The danger
is not that religion shall become emo
tional, as that the emotions shall not
be SO intense and deep striking as to
issue in action.
Even the demand for practical re.
ligiou may be purely theoretical. 1t is
not always the man who is denouncing
a doctrinaire church who is doing most
for the down-lrodden. The preaching
Of ethics is often refuge from theil
practice, and the writing of books ant
the delivery Of lectures on sociology
becomes often an excuse from servic,
OF ones neighbors.
Most men think that heaven is giver
us as q warehouse nf unrealized ideals
the truth is earth is given us as a work
shop for their actuallzation. The vita
, creed is the one that, with its force o
) conviction and its sway of heaven beri
aspiration, compels one to attempt t
make real now all the good we hop
heaven may hold.
: The real services of q church are ont
i side its walls. The inspiration and d
rection may be given within, but th
j work must be done without where tn
need is greatest. When mans RI
: ligion never gets beyond singing an
d signing, he IS sitting himself with "
expressed emotions. 1t is not strang
