JULY CENTURY,.

In the July issue The Century con-
tinues its policy of presenting re-
ports, by experts in their different
lines, OF the progressive work and
investigation of the world, with the
first of two papers on 1.-THE Electric
Railway by Frank J. Sprague, for
mer' president of the American In
stitute of Electrical Engineers. Mr..
Sprague's STRUGGLED through the hard
ships and discouragements of early
experiments, and his present pre-
eminence in the field of electric trac-
ton, give these articles unusual val
ne. The number of readers inter-
ested in such firstAhand history is
hardly to be stimated, for the de-
velopment of the trolley and other
forms of electric traction is recog-
nized as one of the most interesting
and significant phenomena TO our
times. Altogether in a different field
yet revealing also something of the
wonders of modeFnsbusiness life. is
Melville e. Ston's account of the
method of operation of the Associat-
ed Press, another of Mr.. Stones ban
ers on the insideS working of the
great American news-gathering en-
terprise. Il
Following SO closely upon the re-
cent rescript of the Gar concerning
Poland, David Bell sMacgowan's nan
er IN. 1.-THE Future of Poland"-
written, of course, before the res
cript was anything but a hope-is
freshly interesting. AS, d result of
a special investigation undertaken by
request of The entury, Mr.. Macgow-
an paints a dark picture of conditions
in oppressed Poland, tie facts pleading
for the reforms now promised: per-
mission to introduce the Polish and
Lithuanian languages into the prim-
airy and secondary schools; re-estab-
lishment of the assemblies of Pol
ish mobiles; permission to Catcholic
peasants to purchase lands, and,
probably, local tself-government
through zemstvo. First place in the
magazine seems given fittingly to
discussion of THE Secession Move
ment in German Art" by Albert Kin
ross, an English art authority and
writer of note-the article enrich
ed by numerous reproductions of the
work of artists whose influence is
of significant Importance.

GATHER SUNSHINE.
from her,

Some persons are like the human heart,
inssmueh as they sprinkle rest and kind
ness and hearts ease all through their
daily tasks. They weave bright thread
of thankful happiness through the web
and wool of LIES pattern. They are
never too busy to say kind word or 10 do
gentle deed. They may be compelled TO
sigh betines, but amid their signs are
smiles that drive away the cares. They
find sunbeams scattered in the trail OF
every cloud. They gather flowers where
others see nothing but weeds. They pluck
little sprigs of rest where others find only
thorns of distress. Like the human heart.
they make much OF the little opportuni-
ties presented to them, They rest that
they may have strength for others. Trey
gather sunshine with which to dissipate
the shadows about them. The grandest
conception OF life is to esteem it an oppor-
tunity for making others happy. He who
is most true toihis higher self is truest TO
the race. The lamp that shines brightest
gives the most light 10 all about it.

Topic.-The abundant life How get it,
How use it2 tconsecration moeting)
Christianity is life It is not sim
ply religious creed or a set of eth
k,al laws, but the life OF Christ in The
tcart and life of the believer in Christ.
No one can become a Christian by sub
scribing to a code of ethics or hy an
htellett ual acceptance of certain the
ologicai doctrine The Christian is
born 8ga,u. the inward living prin
ciple Of his life is changed. Christ tes-
titles to this fact when He says. Il am
come that they might have life" and
Paul says, II am cruciiied with Christ.
and it is no longer | that live. but
Christ liveth Ia me. and the life which
! now live in the flesh live by The
faith of the Son of God who loved me
and gave Himself for me" A Chris
tan has well been defined as ''oae
whose soul is in living touch and con
tact with the Lord Jesus Christ"
Christianity necessarily involves ethics
and doctrines, but these do not make
the Christian One is a Christian only
when he has received the life of Christ
within himself, and, as q result OF the
coming in of this new living principle.
the life Of self, of sin and of worldiness
has been crushed out,
Christianity is not only life, but an
abundant life Il am come" says
Christ, that they might have life and
that they might have it more abun-
dainty" Spiritual life existed before
Christ came, but He came TO give II
to men and more abundantly than they
had ever possessed it before. More
over says Paul. "the law entered
that the offense might abound, but
where sin abounded grace did much
more abound" Life and grace are
therefore abundant God has made
more than ample provision for our
spiritual wants, as He has for our
physical wants. Life is more abundant
than we need. Grace abounds. We
have Il now HE that hath the Son
hath life" 1t also extends throughout
eternity. It is eternal life" II more
than meets the needs of our spiritual
natures. Through 1t we can come or
more than conquerors over sin and can
i've lives that will be acceptable To
God. Moreover. there is sufficient for
all men. None need he without life
because there Is lack of life. There
b no lack. Christ can save all and
dwell In all if they will accept Him
Ihu faith and consecrate their lives to
Him.
The life principle OF Christianity Is a
gift of God through faith Ia Christ
The Holy Spirit in answer TO ex-
pressed desire, based upon faith,
changes the human heart. He convicts
us of sin. enlightens our minds, rcnews
our Wills and perspades us % accept
Christ as He Is freely offered to Us in
the gospel. And when life ahounas in
us we are to impart 1t to others. III
Jesus has found you. tell others the
story They need Him. Therefore
let the life OF Christ which is in you
so manifest itself that it may touch
the lives of others that they may re-
ceive life and may receive It more
abundantly.

THE IDEAL WIFE

Seven-eighths of the

q woman because she is

There is a beauty In

The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition; because of
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
What a disappointment.
