Re Good For Something.

The highest virtue consists of more
than merely being good. 1t is being
good for something; and good for some
thing not to ones self alone, but to
others and to God. That negative,
Self-complaccnt virtue which is only
Il strict abstention from evil, is of a
quality far inferior to the virtue which
supprcSSes evil or helps another to re-
sist it. Virtue in the old Latin sense,
is Synonymous with valor. 1t implies
not only an eSpousal. but Il champion.
ship, and. if necessary, Il fight. Virtue
is not only being good, but doing good,
and the better we are the more we
ought to do. We believe in these
words of Il. Il. Bowker:
ut is bad for the ignorant and the
vicious to do i'll. 1t is worse for the
educated ard honest to do nothing"

URMONT FREDERICK COUNTY, Md

the mother of Jesus, WitE hcr strong,
deep womanliness, gentle, trustfu and
pure, resolute and self-controlled; how
is it done? Just word here and
there. Truly we call his the gospel OF
womanhood, but it is only part of
that broader vision of the true pur-
poses of Jesus and His work.
Perhaps the most direct proof of the
quality of Luke's gospel is in its charm
of expression. Where can you find
anything more exquisite than the story
of the birth at Bethlehem, or of the
scene in the synagogue at Nazareth, or
than the pathetic story of the widows
son, or of the woman that was sin
ner?' We should need to take whole
book to make such profound impress
sions. The stories of Mary and Mar
tha and of Zachcus of that walk to
Emmaus--how impossible to read it
without having our hearts burn within
MS also! Luke was truly portrait
painter. An ancient legend said Luke
was the founder of Christian art,
Now the last and finest test of per-
fection is unity. Passages in the book
of Luke are like gems in Il royal crown,
The book is a tribute of q reverent dis
ciple to the Lord Christ, showing His
relationship to man and striving to
convey the impression of His personal
ity. AS if Luke should say: Cannot
you see that He embodied the univer-
sal ideal Of a perfectly Godlike life;
that He over-passed human possibility
and gave in His life the evidence of be.
ing divine?' TO be appreciated the
book must be constantly and rcverent-
ly read until it is fixed in the memory.
Then it will do its constructive work in
our souls. 1t will encourage us, that
gospel of Luke to let the whole Bible
have its right of way in our lives, and
it will suggest the way in which the
Bible can become. in our hearts, the
source of genuine and constant up
building.

Should Men Stop Work at Forty?

Dr. William Osler's widely discussed

up the opposite bank. We followed as
fast as the nature of the ground would
allow us, and OH reaching the bed Of
the stream and looking up we saw the
boar, with curled back, erect bristles,
glaring eyes and champing tusks, fac
ing us, evidently having made up his
mind not to bulge a step further.
1t was very awkward position to
assail, but direct attack was unavoid
| able. Being the nearest made Il dash
at the steep bank, and the boar met me
before l could gain footing Oh the
| top. Had not my horse behaved like
veteran we must inevitably have come
to grief. AS it was. lie barely escaped
being ripped by the boar in his furious
onslaught.
Austin and Staples, whose horses by
this time were nearly wild with excite
ment rushed up the steep together.
The boar was standing with the foam
flying from his jaws on Il piece Of level
ground, and after a few short trottins
steps, charged Austin, but in doing so
passed directly across Staples path,
giving him splendid chance which
was not thrown away. He made Il
thrust with his spear and struck the
boar. At the same moment Austin's
spear struck across his horses chest.
and to avoid coming end on over the
boar he had to force his nag to jump
over it,
This, however, he did not succeed in
doing, and the next moment over they
went. horse and rider, and to our hor.
ror we saw our friend lying on the
ground directly in front of the now Ell
ragged and bleeding boar which at once
made Il furious charge at him.
Had l not been in Il measure pre-
pared and close 10y when this occurred
there would have been but very poor
chance for Austin. but, fortunately, |
was just in time to prevent any such
catastrophe. Just as the boar had got
to within half dozen feet from him l
drove my spear deep into his side.
This was the gallant boar's last
charge. He reeled. sank on his knees,
rolled over, and gasping out his last
sobs was gathered to his fathers.-New
York Weekly.

Omen the Doors,

You close your doors and brood over
your own miseries and the wrongs
people have done you; whereas, il you
would but open those doors. you might
come out into the light of Gods truth,

sunlight toward you. If you would but
let Him teach you, you would find
your perpleXities melt away like the
snow in the spring till you could hard
ly believe you ever felt them. George

Why do We always talk Of putting

Why do we refer to the coverings

He must do it now Oh our feet; He

lips. If we refuse to perform these
offices for Him, what right have we
to call ourselves members of His body
in vital union with Him?-Josiah

Chicago, July 5.-Lacrosse enthusiasts of Chi

noon between the Calumets of this city and the
st. Pauls, the former winning 10 goals to 4, at

succeeded in showing were plentiful. the Calu-

whenever advantageous chance appeared,
without trying to play the game entirely them
selves.
On the st. Paul side Whyte and Raymond
proved the best men. The grass was slippery
from the rain which fell Immediately before the
game, and many errors were made. The game
was remarkably free from nixups, and time
was taken out for injuries only twice, insignif-

held prior to the game. 1t decided to play
two series of four games each, making eight

year were counted, giving st. Paul two games
won and lost, the Calumets one and one,
and the Chicagos one defeat and no victory St.

series in Chicago. An association will be formed

the chopping blocks that he might gain expert,

for the brusers of the fgst class.
