in attendance last Sunday, although
no special effort to gain numbers is
being made.

SERMON BY MR.. FISCHER
On the Subject "The Things Which Are
Before"

On the SUBJECT The innings when Are
Before"
A powerful and impressive sermon
was preached yesterday morning in the
Church of the Messiah by the pastor,
Rev. T. A. Fischer. The subject was,
"The Things Which Are Before"
when Pandora" said the speaker,
was presented by Jupiter with a box
and enjoined by that Grecian god not
to open it she, with the curiosity at
tributed to her sex, disregarded the ad-
monition, and countless ills and dis
eases issued forth to affiict the race.
But hope remained. Hope springs eter-
nal in the human breast, and, notwith-
standing the trials and tribulations
which all have to encounter in this
world, hope, like beautiful star, still
beams and encourages the children of
men. Theorists have tried to prove
that after a certain age men and wom-
en- have nothing in life to live for;
their days of work and usefulness are
past. But the facts disprove the argu-
ment A Gladstone and a Michael An
gelo, not to speak of countless others,
attest the fact that life continues on
and on, and will persist even when the
earthly tabernacle is dissolved, We all
have the best of reasons to hope.
Financiers may speak gloomily Of the
future, and others saturated with the
nightmare Of pessimism, but the chill
dren Of faith and hope will maintain
! serenity and peace. The world Is rip
ening, and, despite the evil which sure
ly exists and which all acknowledge
still, the watchmen on the towers, the
thinkers and workers, with faith and 8
reason for their faith, see in the horizon
the tints and rays of that glorious light
which prophets and priests foretold ir
the long ago. At the present time there
is more and better work being done tC
uplift and benefit the race than ever
before, and the work will continue ant
Increase unto the perfect day.
