GEM Cleaned From the Teachings
of All Denominations.
Higher liberty is measured by the
amount OF liberty one helps to give the
mex man -Rey. DR.. Thomas Il. Sllcer.
Unitarian, New York.
A Coed Life,s Effect.
The first effect of good life is the
and joy born of the testi.
mqny of a good eonselenee.-Rev. j. A.
Traeey, Roman Catholic. Germantown,

Our Great Companion.
You do not need telescope to see
the Great Companion, for he is ever by
your side, responsive to the slightest
toneh and weakest prayer.-Rev. Moore
sanborn, Unitarian, Atlanta, Ga.
Truths.
Religious truths are something in
side of man. They cannot be felt
with our hands, they cannot be seen,
yet we possess them and know they
are there.-Rey. DR.. Lyman Abbott
Gongregatlonalist, Brooklyn.
Great Delusion.
1t is one of the great decisions Of
The world for us TO suppose that PEG.
pie are well off or blessed or prosper
aus because they are delivered from
the necessity of toil-Rey. DIR. Minot j.
Savage, Unitarian, New York.
Equal Rights.
The paramount doctrine of equal
rights is that each soul has a divine
right, a kingly and knightly right,
to all the liberty be can use and
has the right to stand up In his Makers
image to show what he can use.-Rev.
NJ. w. stryker, Presbyterian, Clinton,
n. Y.
Worlds Motive Power.
Faith is the motive power of the
world. The men and women who, UNI
der God, have lifted the world slowly.
notch by notch. out of savagery toward
civilization have been men and women
who believed. No doubter ever became
a world power.-Rev. II. Dean Ellen
wood, Uniyersalist, Atlanta, Ga.
Earthly Happiness.
BE content with your position in life.
Earthly happiness and real dignity do
not depend on the accumulation of
wealth and honor. The Saviour of
and the model of men had not
whereon to lay his head. Therefore 1t
cannot be dishonorable to be poor
Cardinal Gibbons, Roman Catholic,
Baltimore.
Superiority In Man.
Accidents of life do not make men
superior. Wealth does not make men
superior There should be more equal
ity among us. Many men In fustian
and patches are better men than many
riding today in carriages, and many
rich men are better than we give them
credit for. Simply because man
tolls with his hands we cannot say he
is chattel.-Rev. W. L. Fatherley.
Methodist, Brooklyn.
Doubts.
Thoughtful people have doubts. but
donbti ought not to be the sum total
cloud}in life. Doubts ought 10 be Ike
the sly. We nave gor' TO sWel suuup
and sunlight, and the blanketing of the
clouds must some tune be torn away,
and the sunlight must get at the flow
ers of the world, lest the flowers fail
to bloom and exhale perfume to the
sky.-Rev. William A. Quale Metho-
dist, Chicago.
The Church with n Grip.
The church upon whose heart lies
heaviest this burden, the burden of the
common people; the church that is
struggling to upllft them, to inspire
them with hope and encouragement;
the church that is actually getting be
meath the load that they are not able
to carry and helping to carry ii with
them, is the church that twenty-five
years from today win not only have
its grip upon the common people, but
will have its grip also upon the
wealthy. REV. DR.. Len G. Broughton,
Baptist, Atlanta, Ga.
Strenuous Life Suicidal
People too often get so impressed
with the idea that there is not only a
great deal TO be done In the world, but
that no one else can do 1t so well as
they Now, that is form of unfaith.
Hurry is a species of infidelity. We
see all about us maniacal creatures of
that sort who have not yet been cor
rallied in an asylum. And their actions
cannot be excused on the plea that 1t
is really due to something especially
exhilarating in the American air. They
are really volcanic eruptions OF human
self seeking and greed. There is spe-
Giles of moral lunaey abroad, and peo-
pie who think they are Intense. but are
really hysterical, are burning them
selves up before they are properly can
didatcs for cremntory. Killing one
self by inches by such process is just
as much suicide as il Is TO draw razor
through the jugular vein. The cyclon-
lc hysteria of the times Is fatal to a
proper appreciation of the finer things
In life. Rev Dr. Charles II. Parkhurst.
Presbyterian. New York.
Good Angels IN Everyday Life.
There are opportunities today for the
preparing of meals for the hungry.
There are the worthy poor, and In Civ
ing to them We are giving unto the
Lord. But there are also the sorrow
ing, who need more than meat and
clothing. They are in want of soul
food. Perhaps dear one has been
taken from them, vacant chair stares
them In the face, an empty crib Is
spread with covers rs white as the
face Of the slnless dead. Others are
langulshing upon beds Of affection,
shut IN from many Of the comforts and
pleasures OF life, and all these need to
be fed by those who perform the work
OF good angels in everyday life. Stlll
others have had abundance. but
through misfortune lost all and are in
deep sorrow. These all are hungermg
