pe, shall have been preached in the

pel shall have been praached IN the
whole world for a witness.
We are often asked, rs the world
growing better or worse?" Our answer
is. "Yes and no. The good is growing
better and the bad is growing worse.
The real church of Christ was never
better thar it is to-day, and the world
that rejects Jesus was never worse.
There is more light now than ever be-
fore, and those who reject the light
are hardened by the process. Light is
"a SAVIOR of life unto life" or of death
unto death. The bad in the world that
sp,1rns the light Will wax worse and
worse, while the good that receives the
light will grow better and better.
In / Thes. ~ :16, II, we read: THE
Lord Himself shall descend from heav-
en- with a shout, with the voice of the
archangel and with the trump of God;
and the dead in Christ shall rise first ;
then we which are alive and remain
shall be caught up together with them
in the clouds to meet the Lord in the
air. From this Scripture it seems
that when Christ shall come for His
people He will not touch the earth.
Like a great magnet He will draw
those who love Him up TO Himself
while those who do not love Him Will
remain upon the earth. The dead in
Christ shall rise and shall be the first
to meet Him in the air.
This seems to be the first resurrec-
ton. 'The rest of the dead,' We are
told in Revelation Xxx Is, "live not
again until the thousand years are fin
ished.' blessed and holy is he that
hath part in the first resurrection" Ey-
identity Paul had in mind this resur-
racticn when he said, ~ count all
things but loss" etc, 'if by any means
l ma attain unto the resurrection of
the dead" An original translation
would be, Unto the out-resurrection
from among the dead" There is not
at this time to be a resurrection of all
the dead, but Of the righteous from
among the dead. In Luke M 80 we
have the clear declaration.
Let US remember that our salvation
does not depend upon what we think
about the second coming Of our Lord.
The first coming is the test. DO we be-
lieve in the Lamb of God, the Savior
who died and rose again that We may
be saved from sin and live in righteous
ness? Nevertheless, the blessed hope
that Christ may come at any time has
a good effect upon our lives. Every
n that hath this hope in him %purifieth
himself even as he is pure"

to three doctors, but this time she was
nothing but q yellow, greenish sore.
One morning we discovered a little yell

to some " specialist, since it was in

REVENGE OF THE GRAND v1z1ER.

Made BroccIct Out of Teeth OF lml
Who Annoyed Him.
When Nasar-ed-Din, the father OF TIT
present Shah of Persia, made his thirt
visit to Europe, in 1889, he was accom-
panied by an impish small boy named
Aziz, who added considerably to tht
gayety of those nations his master Wis
tied that year says Harper's Weekly
1t was said that an eminent Persian
astrologer had warned the Shah tina
his life would be coterminous with ina
of the boy, and hence the monarch TOOK
great precautions as to the others wei
fare.
The pranks Azziz played upon Amin
es-Sultan, the grand vizier, were Il
source of perennial delight to the ruler
of Persia, his suite, and other observers
of various nationalities. The Shah in
sisted on having the boy at his side
ON all occasions and the only time he
was ever successfully squelched during
the tour OF Europe was at the gala per-
Torrance at the Paris opera, when
Nine. Carnot forcibly and personally
elected him from the royal box and
kept him out. The monarch was I'M
easy, however, during the entire per-
Torrance.
-Aziz was protected by the Shah in
any of the tricks he perpetrated upon
the vizier. The imp was particularly
fond of jerking that august personage's
chair from under him on state occa-
sions; he frequently managed to put a
superf1uous amount of cayenne pepper
into Amin's food and caused him to
choke and leave the table at state BAN
quets; and during the royal visit to
Fontainebleau he turned a hose attach
ed to the fountain on the great man,
who had CHANGED to be standing apart
from the others. These were only a
few Of his misdemeanors. They were
recounted at length in the newspapers
and the vizier's life was made wretch
ed from the time the expedition left
Teheran until its return.
Amin-es-Sultan accompanied Mirzaf-
far to Paris in 1900, as he had Nassr
eleven ear before, but Aziz was not
in the encourage this time. To those
remembered his pranks and in
quired about him, however, the vizier
showed a bracelet he wore On his arm,
made out of the boys teeth. The as
t~rologer's prediction had been verified.
The lives of Aziz and the Shah had
been nearly coterminous, for Amin had
avenged himself upon his tormentor
as soon as his protector had passed

Gladstone Tested by . Lord Chief
Justice and Found Wanting.
It was universally acknowledged that
Mr.. Gladstois's memory was prodi-

Justice Of England who thought the
statesman's memory Of his feats of
memory more p%rodigious still, says the
Youths Companion.
On one occasion, on listening to what
seemed to him a tall story Of some
happening OF the great mans early
years, the lord chief justice determined
to go him one better.
So he said that he remembered when
he was only 6 months old and, lying in
his cradle, he saw his nurse surrep-
titiously help herself to a glass Of
brandy and said to himself:
"As soon as / can speak, shan't I tell
my mother!"
THE thing is absolutely impossible
was Mr.. Gladstone's comment in his
gravest tone.
The lord chief justice said afterward
that he had been beaten because he had
reckoned on MI. Gladstone having ga

sEcoND COMING OF CHRIST.
BY Rev Dixon s.

.E4E4E. -
Text.-.This same Jesus, which is
taken up from you into heaven, shall
so come in like manner as ye have seen
Him go into heaven."-Acts iii.
To man, however, knows "the day
nor the hour" when Christ will come.
The angels of heaven are ignorant of
it; the humanity of Christ will not
know 1t. To set the day. the year, the
century, or the millennium, is to be
wise beyond what is written. We are
simply to watch for His coming at n
time and be ready. In the two hun
dred and sixty chapters Of the New
Testament there are about three hun
dred references to the second coming
of u Lord. Surely it is important.
The Son of Man came the first time
to seek and to save the lost. He died
on Calvary, the Just for the unjust,
and on the third day He rose again.
From the top Of Olivet He ascended
into heaven. On the day of Pentacost
the Holy Spirit came upon the church,
and this Is the dispensation of. the
Spirit. To-day he holds the scepter,
VSeAS tAC SAONls tuAn SllSn4 upOll Tic
throne Of power on earth. He is the
vice-gerent of the absent King. His
work is to take out from the Gentiles
a people for His name. (Acts XIV :14.)
He is gathering the bride and making
her ready for the coming of the Bride
groom. The Greek word translated
Church" means called out" The
members of the church are therefore
the called OUT ones. 1t is clear as a
sunbeam that the mission Of the Holy
Spirit is not to convert the world be-
fore Christ shall return. If such is His
mission, it is a ~stupendous failure, but
we believe that the Holy Spirit is not
FALLING any more than Christ failed in
His mission upon the earth. The Spirit
is doing just the work for which He
came. This Gospel of the Kingdom ?
Jays Jesus, shall be preached in all
che world for a witness unto all ma
tons. and then shall the end Gomez
Matt. xiv :141. He does not say that
the world shall be converted to Christ,
and then shall the end come. The Cos
pei is 20 be preached for a witness. II
Is not surface work. Then shall the
contamination come, not when the
