Comfort We One Another.

Try in your sorrow to comfort an
other. The sweet, comforting sound
will re-echo back to yourself and glad
den your own heart when you least
expect it. When your Lord seems TO
call You nearer to Himself by way
that is difficult and painful to flesh
and blood ought you not to rejoice in
that difficulty, to be glad of that very
pain, because it gives you the oppor-
tunity of proving to yourself and man
sfesting TO Him that, whatsoever it
may cost you. follow Him you will;
that you care not how loud the storm
is or how heavy If He is but walking
on the water; you care not how hard
the race is if He be but reckoning to
you from the goal?

Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week
Beginning sept. 10.
BY REV. s. H. DOYLE.

Beginning sept. III.
BY REV. S. H. DOYLE.
Topic-What is practical Christianity p
Jas H. 14-26.
In discussing the topic which we
have before US it is well to remember
that there is no such thing a. prac-
ticai Christianity separate and apart
from doctrinal Christianity. On this
point many people have been confused.
and M:nF are st,li so even today. To
some Christianity is faith only aud to
others It is works only. But both Of
these classes make a serious mistake.
There can be no Christian faith unless
1t inspires Christian work, nor can
there be Christian work unless it Is
based upon faith. Christianity may be
said to be composed Of two principal
parts-faith and work, or doctrine and
practice. Practical Christianity is al
ways based upon doctrlnal Christian
ity. We do because we believe. Mere
doing IS not Christianity, nor Is mere
believing. Christianity is believing and
doing
Practical Christianity properly I'M

factors. a. 1t stands for a consistent
Christian life. The man who processes
to have faith must live in accordance
with that confession or he proves
thereby that he is not a Christian. He
must be honest upright. sober, virtu-
Gus in his dealings with men and faith
ful to all the duties which he owes 10
God. Honesty alone does not make 8
Christian. but the Christian must be
honest or his claim to Christianity is
q false claim. The moralist is not nee
essarily a Christian, but the Christian
must always be moral. The difference is
that Christian morality must be based
upon faith in Christ and inspired by
Him. (2) Practical Christianity is philan
6ropic In character. A Christian must
BOT only lead a clean personal life, but
Be must ''love his ueighbor as him
self" He must be willing 10 do unto
sthers as he would have others do un-
b him" He must have a sympathetic
heart for all in need and when able
extend TO them helping hand. Chris
ttanity In actual practice ia never self
In. but always most uuselfish. Christ
came not ITO be ministered unto. but
- minister and to give His life n ran
som for many" and the disciple must
follow the example Of his Master. No
matter how much religion a man may
aiaim to nave, II he refuses 10 help tie
needy he has no religion. doctrinal or
any other kind. The man who truly
believes will not say TO those in want
sDepart in peace; be We warmed and
6iled," but instead he win give what
u necessary to bring about what he
desires. Christ praeticed the doctrines
Of His religion. So must every Chris
tan. Faith without works is dead
and so is work without faith. Faith
and works make a Christian.

Dear N. B. Friends;
If you think minute you will assent to
the idea that thoughts are things.
Sometimes they seem like airy waits float
ing across the surface Of our minds, but
it is by their power and influence that We
act, and so they really govern our lives.
The thought came to us to do this thing
or that; according as we did it, or did it
not, it has LETT its impress upon us. 1
often wondered if the words OF the poet
were true: 'Guard well thy thoughts; our
thoughts are heard in heaven" The first
sentence believe in, but scarcely accept
the second.
