possible, as were the inner doors Of the
sanctuary Of the Solomonic temple
which had carved upon them "cheru.
bins and palm trees and open flowers"
or flowers in blossom. You should
make your physical forms just as beau
tiful as possible.
In church life, as in society. beauty
has its value. The man and woman of
attractive face and manner win at
tention and exert an influence which
is denied at the outset to ugliness and
deformity 1t is said that George VIII
liers, the most powerful personality in
all James lis kingdom, got his start in
life on account of the beauty of his
physical personality. And there are
many men and women who have had
their first opening to Christian useful
ness because they were attractive in
personal presence. On the other hand,
there are many men who have been
fearfully handicapped in Christian
work because they did not use their
razors enough and kept their shoes un-
blackened and did not have their linen
clean and because they were not care
full to keep their skin well washed and
their hair properly cOmbed. When a
friend once congratulated George
Whitefeld on always being clean and
well dressed the great evangelist an
swered: Il consider it as necessary for
a minister to be clean and tidy when
he prepares for his pulpit as it is for
him to kneel down and pray. A minis
ter has no more right to enter pulpit
with a dirty collar than he has to go
there without his Bible" These are
not Whitefeld's exact words, but they
present his meaning.

souroeon's Remark.

You ask, Does that mean that we
can only have u rich mans churchl'
Not at all l am in nowise casting a
slur upon the little meeting houses all
over the land. God blesses u Wesley
preaching in the fields just as much as
he blesses any priest officiating in his
ecclesiastical robes. Indeed, when a
church puts its emphasis upon form
and not upon the cOnsecration of the
human heart that church is bound to
be spiritually dead. Pastor SpurgeOn
used to say: "As Oliver Cromwell was
about to turn the members of parlia-
ment out Of their chambers he pointed
to the mace and said, Take away that
bauble.' When Christ shall come, who
will effectually purge the church, he
will say much the same of many &C.
clesiastical ornaments now held in high
repute. Gowns and affairs and ban
ners and painted windows will all 60
at one sweep. Nor will the rhetorical
embellishments and PHILOSOPHERS OF
modern pulpits be any more tenderly
dealt with. Take away that bauble!
will be the signal for turning many
folly into perpetual contempt"
But, though that is all true that Mr..
Spurgeon said, we must not apply his
words too literally. The end OF true
spiritual worship is not a liturgy or
great cathedral or a high priced choir.
We all know that. But we also know
that God never wants a man to live in

pie to be carved with cherubim and
palm trees and blOssoming flowers, and
God wants us to build the best temple
to his glory that we can afford. He
wants us to- build that temple in the
most conspicuous street. He wants us
to honor hinl with sweet songs, with a
pure, true, noble worship and with al
tarS as beautiful as we can afford to
make them. "And he carved thereon
,bSerubims and palm trees and open
flowers and covered them with gold
fitted upon the carved work"
But before close 1 want to empha
size one other fact. Every one of these
figures which were carved upon the fir
tree doors of that inner sanctuary was
a symbol of everlasting life. Like the
evergreen tree, its branches are Gov
cred with green all the year round
The cherubim are the symbol of the
great company of the redeemed Of
heaven. OF course we know that the
word cherubim literally interpreted
means an order of celestial beings.
But this word taken as a symbol means
the whole company of the redeemed of
heaven. The palm tree is and always |
has been the symbol Of victory by
grace, while the blossOming flowers |
are the symbol of profession or the
public yielding of our will to Gods |
will, and the gold is the symbol Of
the divine being. Thus this gold covers |
all Yes, every figure engraved upon |
that door is a symbol of spiritual tri- |
umph. Thus, my friends, cannot W
