the building were charred.
A member of the firm stated 70 the
reporter that the losses would
amount to $4,000. covered by So, GOO

The store will open for business
again Monday.
In explanation Of his action in
flooding the building with water,
which has subjected the department
TO some criticism On the streets, Fire
Chief shultz said to reporter today:
I'VE found It impossible to usa
chemicals When We arrived On the
scene, because We couldn't get into
the room to use them. When I went
up the rear steps with one Of the pro-
prietors we were forced back by the
heat and smoke, and when my men
broke in the front window 70 get at
the flames they were met with such
torrent of fire and smoke tha- it vas
impossible for them to enter the
building until the hose was brought
into use. and forced back tho danes
so that we could get in.
I'VE found the whole of the room
choked up with the smoke; the fire
had reached the dangerous stage. and
had gone so far as to eat through the
ceiling and roof Of the building. You
may Judge something of the intensity
of the heat when tell you that the
great stack of blankets on the table
red. and in their center the heat was
so great that we could not bear c,
hand sinside
Another thing. the building is To-
Gated in the heart of one Of the rich

ii is a paint shop. with all kinds of
chemicals and gasoline etc. Had
the flames once reached this store.
we would have been powerless. with
our limited force. to control them.
and the entire block would have been
in ashes this morning. And if this
had happened, we would have been
subjected to far more criticism than
we are today True the store was
damaged mere by water than by fire:
but l would do the same thing over
again if such fire were to occur.

Several of the assistants of the Uni

this phenomenon has any direct con

life. He knew but the marvellous tri-
umphs of Christianity in the world.
and the transformation it has
wrought on civilization in whole races
of people show that the spirit of
Christ may be communicated and
may be re-incarnated in living men
and women from age to age. The ST.
preme fact. then, of Christianity Is
that Christ's disciples are now nearly
900 years after his ascension from
the earth, to live the Christ life here
amid the conditions and circum,
stances of our modern time.
Christ could not have been the per
feet Savior of men unless his life had
been thus pleasing to God. Christians
unless we initiate the life of Jesus
in this respect there is therefore no
more heart-searching question than
this which I have selected from our
theme: "Does my life please God
The great question is not whether
have clear perceptions Intellectually
Of divine truth. or whether choose
hours of spiritual vision when | long
for the noblest and hottest thin"e
hut my life, the actual duties which |
rerform from day to day. the conver-
sations in which I indulge, the pur-
poses which I form and seek to carry
cut. are such as commend themselves
to him who created me, who knows
my life perfectly, who knows what
am capable of doing, and knows also
what is for my highest interests.
Christ's life was pleasing to him, and
that life is open to our study. We
have only to put ourselves alongside
OF the life of Christ in its spirit and
purpose and conduct to find out if we
are living the same kind of life. We
must keep in mind always in this
comparison between our life and that
of Christ-that is is not a question
of quantity, but of quality. little
sparrow can live the life of bird
using its wings to soar in the sky as
truly as an eagle. The quantity OF
its life is not equal, but in the quail
ity it is of the same sort. We can
not open the eyes of the blind. or
unstop deaf ears, or recover lepers.
or sooth feyers. or raise the dead. in
the same way that Christ did: h"t
we may live lives so fragrant y. Il

1HEV WATSON TELLS OF THE
KIND THAT is PLEASING
TO GOD.
Man Must Be Christlike, and Then
His Holiness Will Be Pleasing
to the Savior.

At the prayer service at Lakeside
Methodist church Wednesday night,
Rev. w. C. Watson, the pastor. made
an interesting talk on "The Kind OF
Holiness Pleasing to Cod His text
was the 29th verse of the eighth chap
ter of John:
And he that sent me is with me:
the Father hath not left me alone;
for I do always those things that
please him
Mr.. Watson then spoke in part as
follows:
This, it seems to me, is the supreme
claim which Jesus Christ made for
himself. No higher claim than this
could be made. To say that the life
OF man is always, under all circum-
stances. in sickness and in health, IN
prosperity and adversely. in youth
and manhood, pleasing to God, entire
ly satisfactory to him who created
him and knows perfectly the capacity
or function Of human life, is the high
est claim that could possibly be made
for any one. Christ is our model. At
the very foundation of everything we
can say about Christianity we must
agree on this, that Jesus Christ him.
self was the first Christian, and that
to be Christian now is to follow
after him and live our lives in his
spirit. It is idle for US to undertake
to do the same things in detail that
Jesus did. We can not all go and
live in Palestine and be surrounded
by the same circumstances of daily
