times. He has led us to this mount
of awakening and we, like the favored
apostles, when we are fully awake
will see the glory of Jesus Christ.
Christ is the most powerful force
in human life for the awakening OF
the intellect in search for truth, or
the quickening Of the conscience to
repentance and faith, and for swing
ing the soul with all its awakened and
aroused powers into service for men,
even to the point Of free and glad self
sacrifice.
AS men follow Christ, He has re-
habilitated their faith in the spiritual,
and broken the Elusive spell cast over
them by the material, the false and
superstitious views of God lose their
hold on their minds and fade away be-
fore the sun-like doctrine OF the. d.
vine Fatherhood. The ~selfshness OF
mems hearts is softened into brother
ly good will and the old religions cast
aside their crudities and sink them
selves in the more %effulgent light of
Christianity, the basis for the final
and ultimate faith Of mankind. Who
shall say what greater glories await
to surprise the more fully awakened
powers of mans soul! When we are
fu.y awake we shall behold His
glory.

What God Gives Nights Tor.

1t Is often the obvious truths to-
ward which our eyes are holden.
Sometimes when they appear before
us in a fresh and unusually attractive
garb they strike home to our con-
seriousness as if never before uttered.
though they may be the same old
truths with which the teachers Of our
childhood strove to make us familiar,
and though we may be weary of them.
For example, will the thought en-
bodied in the following paragraph
from Christian Work ever be so fully
absorbed by any Of us as not to need
reiteration?
"Any one can carry his burden,
however heavy, till nightfall. Any
one can do his work, however hard,
for one day. Any n can live sweet
ly, patiently, lovingly and purely til!
the sun goes down. And this is all
that life ever really means to us, just
one little day. Do to-day's duty, fight
to-day's temptations, and do not
weaken and distract yourself by look
ing forward to things you cannot see
and could not understand If you saw
them. God gives nights to shut down
the curtain of darkness on our little
days. We cannot see beyond: Short
horizons give us one Of the blessed
secrets Of brave, true, holy living"
GAS thy day so shall thy strength
be-" runs the promise.

WHY 1t PAYS to Conquer Sin.

1t is better to conquer temptation
than to be freed from it. Therefore
God does not, at once, take us out OF
the world and beyond the reach of
temptation: He does better than that
when He keeps us here and offers
us His omnipotence for the defeat of
our enemy. A victorious, sin-beset
man has more to be grateful for than
an undisturbed angel. For every VIC
tory over sin brings two notable re-
suits. It increases our own power
against temptation, and it lessons the
effectiveness of that temptation in its
next onset. So God actually helps US
to get freed from temptation every
time we use His strength to defeat
temptation. 1t may not always ap-
e so, for temptations dies hard; but
it is so, and we can prove it If we
will fight on in un~discouraged as
surance that it is a one-sided conflict.
after all. and God and we are on that
DISQUALIFICATION Times.

Plain of Marathon.

Since Lord Byron was offered the
plain of Marathon for e900-an ex-
travagant price except to an anti
quary-it has done nothing to re-
deem Its character for dreariness and
desolation. According to a recent
traveller, even the children and the
beggars with coins and pieces Of pot
terry are absent. "We asked the
herdsman," he says, "for remnants
of arms or pieces Of money; he had
seer such things picked up, but knew
nothing of their value" Probably he
knew less of the decisive" battle,
the scene of which was a year or two
ago definitely located by a group of
Prussian officers. One remembers
with an uneasy feeling that there
were only 1872 heroes disposed Of at
this great battle; but the Athenians
had the literary gift, and knew how
to take care of the reputation Of their
race. 1t is curious to reflect that
twenty years have barely elapsed
since Greece took the trouble to ex-
plore Soros-the mound beneath
which lie the bones of the slain-and
thus place beyond the reach Of doubt
the fact that the victors Of Marathon
found sepulture on the plain where
they vanquished the Persian hordes.

One Sure Thing.

One thing is sure, my friends: IL
God Is going to forgive us our sins,
we have got to repent of our sins and
turn from them. "Let the wicked
forsake his ways" Not only must we
forsake our sins, but we must bring
forth fruits meet for repentance. l
don't know who the young nan was
who went to his employer the other
morning and said: "There's the
money l took from you some years
ago." but that was bringing forth
fruits meet for repentance. We have
not only got to forsake our sins, but
if we have injured any one, if we have
slandered him and caused him to
suffer, we must make restitution as
far as we can. And when we bring
forth such fruits, mel will have conf
dence in our Christianity. l have
heard of a man who had four of his
neighbor's sheep stray in among his
own, and he took the marks off them
and kept them. When he was con-
verted, these four sheep troubled him.
Don't think that you are going to
have peace with God If you've got
four sheep that belong to somebody
else, or have put somebody else's
money into your pocket.-Moody.

DISCOVERIES of Opportunity.

1t Is a popularity Of human nature
that we do not readily respond to OPP
portunities for doing good unless we
discover them in ourselves. There is
something in the self-discovery of OPP
portunity that carries with it both in
spiration and the sense of response
bility. Tell one that the chance con-
fronts him of doing this or that, show
him the human need, and show him
also the way to supply It, and he viii!
thank you-but how seldom he WILL
follow your well-meant but more or
less officious advice!
On the other hand, let n discover
for himself the thing that ought to be
done, and most likely he will go and
do it. The very discovery of human
need Is an incentive to human help
fulness. One is ripe for the Joy and
inspiration of service that begins with
his own initiative.
Is not this one of Gods wise pro-
visions for keeping us alive to n
constant presence Of opportunities!
He gives US great Joy in the personal
discovery of them, and the personal
response to them, whereas an oppor-
tunity discovered and pointed out by
another Is a kind Of lifeless and re-
mote thing, that we respond to-, II we
respond at all, pe%rfunctorily and with
out enthusiasm. at such times we
feel as If we had been cheated out
of the best part of the JOY Of doing
good-the doing it upon our W in
itiative, with the glad heart that is
alert to opportunities call. Wisely
has it been said that "the value of an
opportunity largely consists in having
seen it for ones self. THE Watch
man.

FalIacies About Mars.

AS between Mars and Venus the
latter is probably better adapted to
life than the former, always suppos-
ing that other conditions than those
of temperature, r fulfilled. 1t is
quite likely that a planet revolving
midway between the orbits of the
earth and Venus would be better
adapted than our earth is to the de-
velopment ofIthe higher forms of life.
On the whole, it seems from all the
data we ian gather from science that
Mars is no better adapted to life than
the region around the north pole OF
our earth or the tops Of the highest
mountains. The conditions on Mars
seem to be unfavorable to any form
of life unless Of the very lowest or
der.-Professor Simon Newcomb, In

muslin is very suitable and not eX-

Eat Candy.

The old saying of the tipple is
sugar kills more men than rum. The
cheap physicians of the day cut out
all s%weetening If a man becomes Ill,
Now we are advised by moderns, by
the up-to-dates, "the more sweets a
man takes at a meal the less alcohol
he wants. Conversely, nearly every
drinking man will tell you that he has
lost his taste for sweets. The more
candy a nation consumes, the less
alcohol" The United States Govern
ment buys candy by the ton and ships
1t to the Philippines to be sold at cost
to the soldiers in the c%anteens. All
men crave candy in the tropics, and
the more they get of it the less vino
and whisky they want. What shall
we believe?-VictoT Smith, in the

A new and odd notion in the latc"t

a strange one-sided effect, but it is

RuttonS For Jackets.

The backs of the Jackets are not
made plain; buttons of the same COLOR

at the back, indicating that these are

toned up. Some Jackets, braided all
over. are worn with fnely-pleated
skirts in light yelling and unframed.
