Love.-Humanity responds to the
touch Of love- Around on the sunny
side of even the most frigid man
there is always door that opens to
the pressure Of a loving heart.-Rev.
T. ]. Villers, Baptist, Indianapolis,
Ind.
The Higher Right.-There is a. high
sertion of his liberty; it is the right
to give up what pleases him for the
sake Of the welfare of some one else
Rev. A. H Bradford, Congregation
alist, Montclair, n. j.
Modern Christianity-In the great
struggle of life the people care little
about our theological hair-splitting or
our philosophical speculations; they
care little about our orthodoxy or our
heresy: they are in need of the warmth
Of kindly sympathy and Christian help
fulness.-Rey. John Thompson, Metho-
dist Chicago, Ill.
Social Life-Blessed are those who
do hunger and thirst after righteous
life needs is a strong infusion OF
righteousness, so that there shall be
considerateness, charitableness, mod
esty, temperance, healthy amusement
and intelligence.-Rev. S. H. Harris,
Methodist. Amherst, Mass.
The Greatest Thing-For the great
est thing in the world is love. Wheth-
er we give it the other name, which is
charity, or the name of patience, or the
name of sympathy, or the name Of
mercy. 1t is always visiting some
body's prison. 1t is always listening to
somebody's long story Of misfortune.
Rev. F. E. Hopkins, Baptist, Chic:t
CO. Ill.
Christianity Christianity is not Il
theory but a life. When God mado
the Gospel clear and manifest to the
world it was by the incarnation of
God in Jesus Christ. Christ is Chris
tianity. Whatever of truth other
systems of religion may have they
are nevertheless dead. Christianity
alone is alive-Rev. r. B. Hull, Bap-
fist, Brooklyn, n. Y.
Earmony.-Harmony of character is
our highest perfection in this world.
We have to fight for the perfection,
because we have passions or desires,
or inclinations which war against the
law Of the spirit and the conscience
according to st. Paul; and this internal
conflict will last until death brings
liberty.-Rev. j. S. Thompson, indie
pendent, Los Angeles, Cal.
Progress us press on to per-
lection" Say it to the child, to the
student, to the professional man, the
business man, the teacher the writer,
the statesman, to every man engaged
in useful activity. It expresses the
purpose and ideal of every intelligent
human being who cares to amount to
anything in the world.-Rev. r. +.
Coyle, Presbyterian, Denver, Col.
Public Virtue.-As Catholics, we
must unfurl our banner and take
heroic stand in the affairs of our couI-
try's history. We must fill the public
eye with reminders of virtue and re-
ligion and God. We must keep the
trumpet of Gods glory to our lips
ready to blow everywhere tidings Of
Gods love and His mercies.-Rev. O.
A. Hill, Roman Catholic, New York
City.
The Debt of Sin.-Whenever man
begins course Of sin, he mortgages
himself to the devil. The mortgage
may run a good while. A man may
be permitted to pay an enormous
amount of interest in anxiety and pain,
disease, shame and remorse, while he
slaves off the fatal day, but some day
the mortgage will be foreclosed-Rev
l.. A. Banks, Methodist, New York
City.
Judaism Jew has right to
live in any part of the earth and there
is nothing in our Judaism which
should curtail such privilege being
granted to us by any country. OF
course, if the price Of weakness is pro-
scriptive, then what right have we to
live at all? In numbers we are weak,
and in wealth we are rich, proverbial-
ly. Therefore the only refuge we have
is God and humanity.-Rabbi I'll. j.
Elkin, Hebrew, Newburgh, n. Y.
The Spirit of Unrest.-We cannot
hide ourselves from the great spirit
of unrest that is abroad everywhere
confusion, chaos, and strife OF
tongues. There is a blind scramble
for wealth, accompanied by an ever-ln-
creasing list of strikes and labor riots
in the industrial world; there is n loos-
ening of morals and religious ties,
weakening of the sense of moral obll-
cations and the utter disregard Of the
claims of duty.-Rev. A. j. Bruck-
lacher, Presbyterian, Brooklyn, n. Y.
