Monasteries and nunueries are not
the places for making Christians.
Christianity Is sometimes more than
purity; it is purity exercising Itself
IL is more than contemplation and de-
votion; IL Is Gods will. Christ did
not exclude himself from society. He
could not. then. have served humanity.
IN an active world lie was one of the
most active. He went about doing
good.
But is not the Christian life a life
of faith? Yes; life of falth and
works. Said Paul the apostle Man
is not Justified by the works of the
law. but by the faith Of Jesus Christ"
And again. "By grace are yo saved
through faith" But that Paul did not
ignore or underestimate Christian ac-
|tivity Is evident. OF the apostles none
was In labor more abundant than ne.
See ] Cor. Is: 5S also.
Salvation by faith without works Is
impossible; for faith without works
Is dead" Pure religion, according to
James Is something more than purity.
one must Keep himself unspotted
from the world" but he must also
visit the fatherless and widows in
their afhictiOn. Read IN connection
with this the words of the Master
Matt 25: 1910.
The Christian life is essentially "a
life Of love-love to God and TO man.
And love must express itself on die,
says Andrew Murray
"The power 20 exercise and show
love ls work. There IS no such thing
as power In the abstract. n acts only
as it Is exercised, Power in reposa
cannot be found or felt. This is spec
cially true of the Christian graces hid
den as they are amid the weakness of
our human nature. 1t Is only by do
ing that you know that you have; q
grace must be acted ere we can re-
ioice in it's hlesseduess of work and
makes 10 so essential to a healthy
Christian life that i wakens up and
strengthens love end makes ms par

Rojeatvensky to Meet Neboaatoff.

noltolFeHoky 10 NlceL Nepo8dNQNs
ST. Petersburg, May 6.-Admiral Ro-
iestvensky. according to a high naval
authority, has sailed south TO meet the
division of the Russian second Pacific
squadron commanded by Admiral Neb-
ogatofi, which has passed Singapore.
The admiralty has information that
a Japanese division Of fast cruisers and
torpedo boat destroyers was sent south
for the purpose if possible, of crippling
or destroying Nebogatom's ships before
they could effect junction with those
Of Roiestvensky, and there is reason
TO believe that the Japanese took up a
position in the Straits of Sunda, through
which Nebogatcff originally intended
to make the passage into the North Sea.
There is also reason to believe that
Nebogatoff first approached the Straits
of Sunda, but finding them too well
guarded put about and headed north
for the Straits of AIalacca, his division
lacking the protection Of fast cruisers
and being at great disadvantage in
meeting torpedo boat attacks.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR

The Making Of Christian: His
Exercise. Jas. 1: 22-2I. W. \. Sher-
wood.
Christianity is "a life. And life has
functions. These cannot be discharg-
ed without exercise. Life has be-
ginning and progresses toward an
ideal But without exercise there Is
mo progress.
II has been said that nature abhors
la vacuum. And Il may as truly he
said that she abhors inactivity. The
water that does not flow will stag
nate, the air that does not circulate
will become foul, the man who does
mot work becomes weak and siclly.
the arm that Is not used will arophy.
and the faculty that is not exercised
grows weak. God sets His curse upon
inactivity.
He has also set His approval ON ac-
tvity. The world which lie made and
pronounced good is am active world.
The price of success IN their world is
persistent activity. The proper cxer-
else gives health strength ana SYM
metry TO both body, mind and soul.
The blacksmith has a strong arm
because he exercises IT, But one arm
is stronger than the other because IL IS
used more. For the development of
symmetry there must be uuiformality
lof exercise. All the muscles must DE
proportionately exercised. This IS ale
so true Of the mental faculties. The
exercise Of a faculty gives strength
and an the faculties proportionately
exercised gives symmetry. Ia like
manner the only way 90 develop tho
Christian grace is 10 exercise an The
powers OF the soul. God does not give
man Christian character. The man
himself makes Il. II grows out OF
Christian activity.

QUESTION HER SANITY.
II. Il. Weeks Has Commission A D.
pointed ON His Mother.

The application Of Herbert A. Weeks. OF
Cedarhurst, Long Island, for the appointment of
a commission TO examine, with a sheriffs jury
into the sanity of his mother Mrs. Lucy Paine
Weeks. granted yesterday by Justice
Truax. David w. Gilbert. Gerard Roberts and
Dr. Allan McLane Hamilton were appointed
commissioners.
According 10 the petition Mrs. Weeks
ceived about $1,000 a year from trust fund
of $4,000 in which life interest has been
left her by her husband. She had, it was al
legged, been suffering from senie dementia since
1897 and had become utterly unable 10 take
care of either her property or herself. AfidaviJs
of two physicians were submitted in support of
this.
Mrs. Weeks married the husband OF her de-
ceased sister, and has Stepchildren who her
nephews and nieces. She lives with step
daughter Mrs. George S Baxter, No. 1873 West
Eighty -sixth-st. who opposed the appointment
OF the commission although her counsel ad-
mitted that Mrs Weeks. who was eighty-four
years of age, was very feeble. On her part, il
was contended that this was a family affair,
which should not have been brought into court
In this Herbert A. Weeks's brothers and sisters
agreed with Miss Baxter, it was asserted.
Counsel for Mr.. Weeks said that the son and
daughter with whom Mrs Weeks was living
had prevailed upon her TO make a Will, in viola
ton of an agreement between the petitioner and
his mother and the other members of the family.
This will he said, would deprive the petitioner
of the part of the property he would otherwise
receive on his mothers death. In addition to
this, Mrs Weeks had executed mortgage dis
posing Of some OF the real property, the coun-
sci charged, and she could not convey the prop
ertV legally.
