THE Individuality OE CHRIST.
The individuality OF Christ is ir-
resistibIy impressing itself upon the
world. That it will sOmedaH subdue
the hayward life of man and uproOt
the evils Of the earth is prophetic
utterance justified by daily Observa-
ton. The great refOrmatOry move
mentS that are lancing the assesses
! of the body social and relieving it of
facilitating loads of corruption are
but forces aggressive against the
ChristleSs phases Of society. When
we mentally drift into the presence of
Jesus the mild beauty Of his character
rebukeS our ugl y nature, and we turn
again to the world more sensitive to
the failings of man. When we note
the moderation of his desires, we feel
like quenching the mad flames of our
ambition, the nature of which is con-
demned by his attitude toward the
material. His personality is a beacon
! light upon the dark, dreary barrenS
between man and God. where often as
we grOpe in darkness and despair we
feel the touch of his hand and recover
our courage. Whenever the forces of
government give way and permit his
teachings to dominate the results are
invariably so beneficial to the general
welfare as to make his advance per-
manent. 1t is human nature to cling
TO benefit. One of the most ungodly
phases of human society today is the
Capitalization of wealth. Wealth is
the vital blood of society. A million
aire is an isolated and perverted in
dividuality that diverts and misappro-
pirates the vitality of the body social
A trust or selfish cooperation, might
be regarded as compound indi Vidu-
atty having the same facilitating
effect upon society. They are natur-
al but hideous outgrowths of evil
conditions and will vanish upon the
application of Christianity to govern
ment. Let us see. Christ told q GER
tain rich man to go sell what he had
and give it to the poor. This utter
ance of Jesus contains a universal
precept applicable throughout time
and space. Its practice would insti-
tute continuous flow of wealth from
the centers of congestion or surplus to
regions of want and restitution. The
happy results are obvious. Witness
the relief of stricken San Francisco.
The social body is whole of which
we are the parts. When the whole is
unclean the parts are unclean and
vice versa, an unclean part defiles the
whole. What folly IL is for a man to
try TO make himself happy part of a
miserable whole. Were we so to unite
our efforts as TO create happy whole
we, being parts, would of necessity be
happy. A self conferred being is the
most miserable creature that inhabits
the world. He creates misery that is
thrown back upon him by the reaction
of his conduct. The true Christian
loses sight of himself in concern for
the general welfare. If every member
of fociety was a true Christian what
would be the results?
BESIDE THE ROAD.
Beside the road upon the green
paused awhile to day,
Where 'mong the violets was seen
a little squirrel at play.
ooh, what happy heart, Thought
Beats in that tiny body
Meier hurt by falling plans or sigh,
Nor shared by schemes of shoddy.
A plowshare wrecked his happy
home,
Why don't his heart get sore?
Such proof against calamity
] never saw before.
