The Power of His Resurrection.

Let us who believe in the Lord OF
life no longer seek the living among
the dead. Let us not go with Mary
to the grave to weep there; but, let
us stand where she stood after she
had recognized her risen Lord in the
light Of the Easter morning, and with
a joyful heart exclaim, "Rabboni!'
To know Him and the power OF
His resurrection" Is to have JOY for
the mourning, the garment OF praise
for the spirit of heaviness. st. Paul
says he counts all things but loss
for the excellency of this knowledge.
And we'll he may, and so may we;
for without this knowledge all other
things are very small gain.
To stand beside a sepulchre weep
ing, or with thoughts that lie' too
deep for tears" Is the universal hui
man lot Since sorrow set her bleed
ing heart on this fair world Of ours. ="
But bitter tears are shed only by one
who hopelessly says: "They have
taken away my Lord" We tarry
at a sepulchre only when faith Is
under an eclipse. With a spiritual
sight of Jesus and the recognition OF
His voice, "in whom, though now
we see Him not, yet believing, we
rejoice with joy unspeakable.' we
turn away from the empty tomb,
knowing that 1t Is only the gateway
of life, that grief Is an avenue to
richer JOY, and the light affection
is a factor in the eternal weight OF
elory.-Christian Advocate.

The Successful Life.

Gods will is mans life. To know
1t is to gain life's meaning To follow
it is to find LIES pleasure. To finish
it is to gain life's crown. True sue
cess must follow this divine law OF
living. No success is worth the name
that is not stamped with the divine
approval. II you are business man
your success will not be measured by
the dollar sign, but by more lasting
token, Gods approval The dollar is
far below the deed in the estimation
of the Almighty.
Life is, after all, the essential pos
session. Upon its character depends
destiny. Life outlasts the world. and
it's deeds have more enduring quail
ity than its possessions. Deeds await
the coming of the Son Of Man. True
success will be measured then. 1t Is
no chance work, however. The Mas
ter, by both example and command,
puts His disciples in the path to such
success. IF man would come after
Me, let him deny himself, and take
up his cross, and follow Me-" That
is high ideal with a plain condition
of it's attainment. Such a following
of Christ makes truly successful
life.-George r. Lunn, D. D., In Chris
tian Intelligencer.

"Why do watches get dirty" said

The patron turned out his watch
pocket, sheepishly bringing forth q
pinch of mud-colored dust, some lint
and a small ball of black stuff.
There's the reason" said the
jeweler. Watches get dirty because
the pockets they are carried In are
never clean. A watch pocket, my
dear sir, should be cleaned out regu-
larry once week. Observe that rule
and your watch's works will not get
clogged up again.
Another and seasonable rule Is
never to lay your watch down on
stone or marble. The cold deranges
the delicate works.
Never lay your watch down, in
fact, anywhere. Hang 1t up on a
hook, vertically, in the same position
it occupies when in your pocket.
Watches are made to lie, or rather
stand, in that position only.

One CartoOniSt's Record.

Cartoonist Davenport has the uni
que record of electing more men to
office than any other cartoonist in the
country, and his method is unique
in that he does it by opposing them.
On the notable list of men he has
helped to elect will be found the
name of the late President Mckinley,
the late Senator Hanna, Mayor Me
Clellan, of New York: Mayor Busse,
of Chicago, and, lately, Mayor john
son, Of Cleveland. And the explana-
tion is, possibly, that while many
cartoonists show in pleasant way
the faults and foibes of the candi-
dates they oppose, they do it in a
kindly, humorous way, while Daven-
ports political drawings generally
show bitterness. - Marion 60 h o.

Some men are born great, but as

A woman never pretends to be
young until she begins to feel old.
A girl may be as pretty as pic.

II love would only remain blind
after marriage-but what's the use?
A newly married man protects his

a man on the road to the almshouse
A man isn't necessarily the head
of the house because he wears a big
hat.
Be sure you get a round-trip ticket

We thank Thee, o God, for the
opportunities of our life. Some

which are ours seem to us so slight,
so small, and SO insignificant. Some
times Thou revealed to us that we

would realize that Thy spirit should
be ours now, during this week,
through all our lives. Join us, O
God, together in the sense Of deep
unity, in the sense that our great
object is one, that, however diverse
our circumstances, we may be one
in Thee. May we dedicate ourselves
in all humanity, but with full aspi.
ration, anew to Thy service.
