THE TEST OF RELIGION.

Sometimes a man who would prove
his religion at the stake disproves it in
the presence of a badly cooked steak.
The severest test of d persons re-
ligion is generally not in the ceaseless
besetments of the world. but in the ev-
cry day life in his own home. There,
If anywhere. he is his real self. petit
ness, M-temper or any unloveliness in
him, 1t will appear within the %seclusion
of his own household. There it is tina
he is seen without the veil of onven
%tionality. He assumes that the home
folk know him as he is. and that they
bear all things from him, and so he
ahates even his accustomed effort to
be his noblest self. Yet it is perfectly
evident that a person is to be credited
with no more religion than he displays
to those who know him best. If a
man does not practice his Christianity
at home 1t may be questioned whether
the article he displays elsewhere is
really Christianity.
Those who love US most are most
susceptible to loneliness in us. Thus
the display of humble godliness in the
home is ukelier to la a greater effect
there than 1t can possibly do outside.
