RECOGNITION IN HEAVEN.


Text: And l say unto you, many
shall come from the east and from the
west and shall sit down with Abra-
ham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom
Of heaven" -Matthew viii: II.
What a blessed boon is lifel How
much more blessed to know we shall
live forever, and that we shall love
and commune with loved ones and the
holy of all ages in the life beyond!
The desire to live and the longings Of
love are the strongest proofs of both
immortality and heavenly recognition
the animal of Immortality. Instinct
leads each to their God-given destiny.
Klondykers would not load ship
with gold to sink 1t in mid-ocean. Sure
ly God Is as wise as his children. He
will bring the treasure ship Zion into
the desired haven and land IT'S pre-
cious freight on the eternal shore. An
infidel once said: IF l could be sure
of a hereafter and know that l should
meet the loved ones gone before,
would crawl on my hands and knees
from New York to San Francisco just
to gain that certainty" On his knees
before God, every infdel can attain
that blessed consciousness Of immor-
tality and loving fellowship with the
holy as light divine flashes through
his being.
Would you live a life Of entire holt
ness freed from every weight and sin ?
Would you look only unto Jesus? Then
look often toward the unseen and
realize that the arms of loved ones
are around you, pulling you to the
skies; that you are not only a pilgrim
of earth, but an inhabitant of glory;
and as you gaze, you will exclaim:
Let me be holy, for yonder company
are robed in sotless white" We gaze
too much upon things near us, and
the near view is often dark, dusty and
doleful; oh, the beyond! How it lifts
our dropping spirits up and makes of
our earth a heaven! Lift up your eyes
unto the heavenly hills whence cometh
your help.
We are truly race of travellers
having no continuing city. Strangers
and sojourners as were all our fathers
Our days here are a shadow, a HANG
breadth; yonder shines one eternal
day. ;"Death does not end ALL" 1t is
only the beginning! Affections are but
for a moment compared to the far
more exceeding and eternal weight OF
glory" Separations only mean that
your beloved has gone home to gaze
upon the. king in His beauty" and
await your coming to the heavenly
mansion. Death signifies that you
have gone to the building of God, the
house not made with hands eternal il
the heavens"
Christian believer, art thou weary
with sorrow, heavy laden with separ
alton, cast down with loneliness; gaze
towards the faces that look back upon
you. See! they beckon you home
ward. Soon the white-winged mes
sengers will come for your spirit ant
will whisper to your soul Let mo-
your heart be troubled, neither let il
be afraid. In my Fathers house are
many mansions" Come We blessed
of my Father, Come up higher. Thai
where am there We may be also.

long time, and the killing was there
fore no surprise.

Text: Keep ye justice and practice
Righteousness Isaiah Xvi.
Brilliancy of literary power marked
the age Of the prophets, but morally
it was dark and degenerate. Abnor-
NAL wealth and abject poverty, beauty
and ashes, glory and shame, the robes
OF Dives and the rags of Lazarus alter
nately charmed and terrified the mag
nation. The simplicity of pastoral life
was abandoned. Property once held
in common passed into personal own
ership. Socialism merged into indi-
vidualism. Society reorganized around
the individual. Greed coerced men be-
You'd legitimate acquisition into re-
spectacle robbery. Money controlled
the seats Of law and justice.
Dark are the pictures of the age
painted by the prophets. The sins, so
deadly to virtue and so fatal to hap
p,ncss, were common. Fraud, dishon-
esty and robbery prevailed in CONNER
cial Life. The weights and measures
were false. Ignoble traffickers tam
pered with the markets and cornered
the necessities of life. Stocks as in
substantial as g mirage were tioated
and bubble companies formed. In Wig
orous language Isaiah denounces ILL
cit trusts and combinations. Woe
unto them that join house to house,
that lay field to field till there be no
place, that they may be placed alone
In the midst of the earth"
But notwithstanding the manifold
corruptions of the age, reaching from
palace to hovel, and permeating every
sphere of labor and every avenue of
trade, the people were religious. That
they had made lies their refuge, and
concealed themselves under falsehoods
did not interfere with their devotions.
Such astounding Inconsistencies were
inevitable. For moral standards had
been falsified. Hypocrisy ruled the
day. True merit and genuine worth
were discounted. Fraud, sham and de-
ception were rewarded.
The prophets were altogether diff
ferent. They were progressive, expan-
sive. upward gazing souls. Their
| minus were uuenC anu UeAlDle. 1HeV
were open-eyed and believed in the
Infinite intelligibility of things. They
saw the red streakng Of the dawn OF
Truths illustrious day. In the SYM
phony of progress they were the lead
ing performers. They had visions Of
the ideal Mans the ideal Church and
the ideal State. Against arid formal
ism they vowed eternal war, and
smote the huge ecclesiasticism of
their times as with a mace. They as
serted the supremacy of reason over
tradition.
They were lavish of the light, know
ing we'll that all sanitary purificat ton
begins when rooms are flooded with
oxygen and sunbeams. And so 1t
was their function, not to repress life,
not to clip it into mechanical shapes,
but to give it room, to keep it plastic,
green and fresh and growing until 1t
reached its attainabe perfection.
They cared nothing for the cult and
ceremonial, the changing drapery OF
religion. But they did care for relig-
lon as a life, as an essence unmixed
and pure. And so they became the
leaders and instructors of the soul
and uncovered peak after peak in the
mountains of the Ideal.

CHARACTER AND HABIT.

BY Rev. 6. B. r. HaHock. ID. d
Text: Learn to do well. "-Isaiah
1: II.
Some one has well compared learn
Ing to do we'll with learning to swim.
You wade in the water, but not very
far, for fear you will drown. You try
to swim, but sink. You try
again, and do little better. You
swallow a good deal of water; it gets
into your ears and eyes and nose. but
you keep on splashing, and finally can
swim. SO must we, in the region of
moral things, keep on doing well until
we learn how, and it has become a
habit. Habit is something we have
we have it. That is what the word
means. But as we well know, it often
becomes something which has us.
What is habit? 1t has been well
defined as the involuntary tendency
to perform certain actions which is
acquired by their frequent repetition"
Habit is second nature" Habit lis
prevailing dispositions, feelings and ac-
tons which are right or wrong"
Habit is 'moral character" Habit"
says Horace Mann, us cable; we
weave thread of it every day, and at
last we cannot break it." What we
have thought or felt or done once, it
Is a little easier to think or feel or
do the second time, much easier the
tenth, incomparably easier the TWEEN
Heth, and very difficult to keep from

There is nothing divine in dullness.
Sulkiness is only selfshness turned
sour.
Many great souls have been lost by
little sins.
Blessed is the sorrow that cures of
selfshness.
Gliding the wagon does not ease the

The best place to pray for corn is

The following spatoh from New
Orleans may well be considered:
The local health authorities have
appealed TO Surgeon j. II. White OF
the Marine Hospital Service TO stop
the entry of banana trains from Mo
bile, because it is claimed that cars
bring large quantities of mosquitoes
from the ports infected with yellow
fever in Central and South America.
Ii is charged that more mosquitoes of
the stegomyia faeiata type are import

are exterminated mere in week by
the sanitary squads,

We repeat the question. would ii not
be better for Cairo to quarantine
against all banana trains? T. il not
more important TO preserve the health
