World Does Not Satisfy.


TT is a fact that nothing in this world
has the power to satisfy. Did you ever see
company Of millionaires walking down
the street singing? l think not. Million
aires do not often sing. But any day you
can see a company Of Christian believers
marching down the street singing. Do the
pleasures Of the world satisfy? No. Did you
ever study the faces of the people at
theater or a dance? They are a pltiable
sight. Does fame satisfy? Does worldly
wisdom satisfy? Goethe. probably the
greatest man OF his time, cried in his dying
hour, More light, more light Herbert
Spencer, one of the greatest minds that
ever lived, shows In his autobiography
what an unsatisfed man he was in spite Of
his great learning.
IAN these things of the world pass away
and they are apt to pass away in a single
night a single instant. At any moment
the man possessing great sums Of money
may be called to relinquish It and go hence,
as poor as the poorest pauper. Or, even II
life continues, he may lose his money at
any time through the superior shrewdness
of his fellow men.
Honor is just as evanescent. I knew
OF great man in my boyhood. He was
my ideal Of a statesman He became a
! United States senator from the state OF
New York. He was crowned with honor.
Then for a time 1 did not hear Of him,
and then learned that he was living in a
little old house, forsaken by friends,
scarcely ever seen upon the streets. His
honor and fame had fed.
THE pleasures OF the world are even
more heetinR The dance, the theater, the
card party endure but few hours
Soul Alone Endures.
"All these things pass away, but the
soul endures and the life offered to any
who will take It endures forever. What
! folly, what stupendous folly It is for any
sane person to sacrifice his immortal soul
for few hours Of worldly pleasure and
! enjoyment!
! Some people here tonight are saeri-
lcing their souls in just that way. They
are sacrificing them for a few dollars
that they get from the employment in
which they are engaged, which employment
they would have to give up If they became
/ Christians. / knew one man who sacri-
/ feed his soul for one days profits in a
candy store which he kept He said he could
not accept Christ because II he did so he
would have 20 close his store on Sunday.
/ He sold his immortal soul entirely too
cheapiy Some of you are selling your
souls for the occasional enjoyment Of
some worldly pleasure. You are selling
your souls too cheaply. The words of the
text ask What shall It profit a man If
he gain the whole world and lose his own
soul?' The richest man on earth owns
but a very small fraction of the whole
world and most Of the people own almost
none Of It, and yet they are losing their
souls for the tiny fraction that they do
own, for the few paltry dollars that they
| are able TO earn.
An hour Of clearer vision is coming to
all. It will be an hour when the relative
! Importance of the soul and the things of
earth will be seen. That hour may not
come until It is too late. II is the wise
man who prepares for the future"

Two BIDDERS FOR The SOUL
Sale is a Sertainty and One or the Other
Must Be the Buyer,
WHICH SHALL IT BE, CHRIST OR THE DEVIL
such is the Statement Of DR.. Tarrey
and the Question He Asks of
His Auditors wednesday
Night.

Two bidders are here tonight TO purchase
the souls Of every person in the Auditorium.
One is Jesus Christ, who offers eternal life
for every soul, and the other is the devil
who offers worldly pleasure for every soul
Which offer will you take7"
With these words Rev. r. A. ToCrey
closed convincing sermon last evening at
the Auditorium and thlrty-three persons
arose and signlHed that they had accepted
the call to lead Christian life.
DR. Torrey preached on the text found in
Mark vlli.3e; What shall it profit a man
II he shall gain the whole world and lose
his own SOUR" He pointed out that the
two things contrasted are the world and a
soul. This is the strongest possible con-
trast. II the question had been, what
profit 1t would be to man II he should
gain present pleasure and lose the POSSIBLE
ity OF future Joy, II would be much less
cogent proposition, because then the man
would at least have pleasure during his ex
istence in the world. But the man VIII
loses his own soul has not even the satis-
faction of enjoyment In this world.
There are two heavens for the man who
leads the Christian llfe," said Dr. Torrey
1T is one heaven to live in the world with
the positive assurance of future salvation
And then there is the heaven which is the
haven Of the soul after It has parted from
the body.
Earthly pleasures are not only evan
escent but they are poor and paltry COM
pared with the grandeur Of salvation. God,
indeed, made mans soul on too vast a plan
for It to be satisfied with the things of the
world Augustine was right when he de-
clared. o, God, Thou hast made US for
Thyself and our souls are never satisfied
until they rest in Thee

on when crossing a river, while every thief of any standing possesses a large iron jimmy for forcing open doors of sheds and making holes through walls. One of the most curious things I have ever seen in the possession of one of these men was a rough but serviceable telephone. It consisted of a piece of. twine some two hundred yards in length, and two bits of bamboo hol- lowed out to form cylinders about six inches long and three in diameter; over one end of each cylinder a piece of bladder was pasted, to the center of which the twine was attached by being passed through and secured by means of a knot. The owner of this interest ing instrument stated that it was w-ed by thieves at cattle fairs. Several men would go to large fair with few an- imals of their own, and get with them into the inclosure. At night the cord would be passed from one side of the inclosure to the other and one man would watch the patrol and give pre- concerted signals in the shape of coughs and groans to his friends at the other end. The latter would then walk off with the cattle while the pa- trol was engaged in condoling with the accomplice, who would pretend to be very i'll and in great agony.
 A man who had lost one of his sheep was at first rather puzzled on finding that its tracks disappeared altogether at a spot where the ground was quite soft and took good impressions. On carefully examining the ground he per ceived the tracks of a camel, and mo- ticed that it had sat down just where the sheep's tracks had ceased. Putting two and two together, he with some friends, tracked up the camel and re- covered his sheep which had been lift ed off Its feet on to the camelb one of the men, placed across the saddle and so carried off.
 On one occasion a party of thieves actually managed to seize as many as twenty-nine camels which they took through two districts to a place over two hundred miles away. They were there exchanged for a number of stolen buffaloes and bullocks, which were brought back for disposal in the home district. The difficulty incurred by the police in the investigation of this case and in bringing the offenders to trial may be magined.-Chambers Journal.

FRENCH CHURCH INVENTORIES
Nine Hundred Additional Made Tester
 day.

Paris. Nov. 21.-Nine hundred addi tional inventories of church property were made to-day, leaving eleven hun dred outstanding in eighteen depart ments. The determination of the gov ernment to apply the law no matter what opposition shall be offered has had a calming effect on the people, for although the congregations had an op- nortunity for organization and defense against the taking of the inventories, the threatened sanguinary conflicts did moi occur. Resistance to the order was augmented in the heart of Brittany, however, and there were several col Iisions and cavalry charges, notably at Iocmaria, where a number of soldiers and policemen were injured, and Quer- rien, where entrance to the village was barricaded and five hundred inhabit- ants, armed with clubs and pitch forks, attacked the troops. A number of persons were injured and many ar rests were made. At Lanneufret there was fight in the cemetery between 200 manifestants and 2endarmes. At Plouidec, where the officials arrived during the celebration of mass, they were excommunicated by the cure.
 In most instances, however, resist- ance by the congregations was confined to the reading of protests before the barred doors of the churches, which were burst open by the officials making the inventories Two clergymen of diff ferent parishes were to-day sentenced to terms of Imprisonment on charges Of using violence against the officials.
 The authorities calculate that the task of taking inventories will be com pleted Friday, except in isolated par ishes in the mountainous districts where recent heavy snow falls hinder the work
