used as an illustration the incident Of
Lazarus death and Christ's visit to the
home Of his sisters, Mary and Martha.
| From this the minister dcduced three
characteristics Of their faith, three
things in which their faith was at fault
or lacking. These faults are charac-
lcrisic of much of the avowcd faith in
the world to-day and are as follows:
First-rhc mistake is too often made
Of limiting the work of God 10y place.
"Ii Thou hadst been here our brother

probable damage 10 furniture aud
household effects at about $500 This
was because unusual care for an uccas-
ion of that kind was followed out in
removing the articles but Il subse-
qucnt examination of the effects shows
that a good deal more damage than
was Mt first thought to have been done
WAS discovered. Much of the wearing
apparel, bedding, valuable pictures,
etc, were badly damaged By water,
rendering them practically useless, and
more Of the furniture, which was Of u
fine character, was defaced aud broken,
MIR. Rozicr estimates that the damage
is between $500 and 81 200.
