everyone who boldly reaches up to and
lives out the highest he conceives, for
ne will not do that without sacrifice
and pain on his side nor without en-.
riehing mankind on the other.
The largest faith may be manifest
in the lowliess places When all the
work of the ages appears, when the
weaving of the centuries is turned
with its finished side towards us. we
may see that the man who has laid
the brick or fed the furnace or the
woman who has washed and cooked
and tended the little ones, doing these
things for love, has shot the most glow
ing colors into the great fabric.
1t is not the thing you do so much
as the spirit in which you do it that
makes it great or small. Faith de,
termines this spirit, for faith is that
which fashions the ideal of the one we
love, the ideal we serve and for which
we joyfully suffer. The prophet whose
burning words we cannot forget lives
by the faith in a vision broad and
sweeping; but not less is the faith of
the humble toiler who lives each day
by the vision of his home and fireside.
Nor is this all. 1t is faith that
draws on life's invisible sources of
power and refreshing; it is faith that
finds inner contact with the invisible
How empty Is life if 1t hold nothing
but things; how hungry grows the
heart fed only on cold facts. For each
day as 1t comes we need to be able to
draw on the deep springs of the water
of life, the springs from which our IA
theirs drank and found strength TO lay
the foundations of our day.
Faith Is not the blind confidence that,
somehow, Providence will send us daily
bread. 1t is the faculty by which the
heart eats of the bread of heaven, by
which it comes into fellowship with the
great and immortal of all ages, by
which it walks with Jesus of Nazareth
and every spirit like His and learns
to read life as love and law and see IL
as leading to eternal good.

ALFoNSo'S ISLAND PALACE.
Wedding Present in the Bay of Arosa to
Be Site of Royal Summer Home

Wedding Present in the Bay of Arosa to
Be Site of Royal Summer Home
King Alfonso of Spain is preparing to
enjoy next summer the odd wedding pres
ent that some wealthy Spanish noble
men bestowed on him and Queen Vic
toria. He is having palace built on the
island of Cortegada in the Bay of Arosa,
opposite the port of Carril and the sum
mer resort of illargarcia, famous for its
sulphur baths. The villa at San Sebas-
tan at which he has heretofore spent
good deal of time each summer, is the
property of his mother, and the new
summer home is designed to give the
youthful couple a place where they can
entertain guests independently.
The island is about three miles and
half in circumference. 1t is diversified in
surface and beautifully wooded, while in
all directions it receives cooling breezes
and commands splendid views, varying
from the broad Atlantic to the pictur-
esque shores of the bay. Previously to
its purchase for the King it had popu-
lation of seventy fisher folk, who inhab-
tied eighteen dwellings. They sold out
their rights to the intending donors, shar-
ing the desire of the latter, as they put
it, to please their sovereign, upon the
one condition that the Chapel of the In
carnation, a far famed shrine to which
pilgrims from all the fishing villages Of
the coast resorted should remain I'M
touched and should be always accessible
to pilgrims.
The King has placed the building Of
his palace and the identifying of the
Island in the hands of the Marquis de
Viana and Madrid architect, Senior Ri
poles. The building is to be of semi
Arab design, following the general lines
of some of the most famous parts OF the
Alhambra. The harbor is also to be de-
veloped so that the King can indulge in
aquatic sports.

SYMBOL FOR OUR ADVANCE.
-. -
BY Rev. Geo. D. ST.

By Rev. Geo. D. Sparks.
Take up the ark of the covenant and
pass over.-Joshua 3 &c.
The long journey in the wilderness
l. over; the endless stretches of sand
will haunt the tired eyes of the pil-
grims no longer. Beyond the swiftly
gliding river lies Canaan-the Land of
Promise
Joshua is born leader of men, and
as such knows what they will do If
appealed to lin the right way. The
River Jordan flows between the Prom
ised Land and his followers. 1t must
be crossed. With the same feeling that
afterward animated Douglas to take
from his breast the jeweled heart Of
the dead Bruce and fling it over the
heads of the advancing foe, shouting
Flight, my men, for the heart of
Bruce" So Joshua, with the deep re-
ligious consciousness of a Jew, gives
the order to carry forward the ark
of the covenant. No one of his follow
ers will dream of tagging behind when
he sees that sacred symbol in front.
And so, following in the footsteps of
the priests, the people, old and young,
cross the Jordan and enter upon a new
phase OF their national life.
The parallel between our case, as we
stand on the threshold of new year.
and the Jews on the eve Of their enter
Ing Canaan, is so apparent that 1t can
be seen at once. As the tired wander
ers from Egypt stood facing the Prom
ised Land, so do you and l stand facing
1908.
How are we going to commence our
Journey into the new year? Joshua,
though he lived long, long ago, and
though he was but leader of a mob of
liberated slaves, can show us the way
The captain of the Jewish host sent
forward the ark of the covenant We
who are children of the larger hope can
do nothing better than to send for
ward into the new year the cross of
Christ Why? Because only by the
power of the cross can we hope to pass
successfully through the trials and
temptations and to overcome the kings
of passion and selfishness which so
surely lie waiting for US in the next
twelve months.
1t must appeal to nearly everyone,
this ending of an old year and the be-
ginning of new one. man must be
dull indeed if it awakens no thoughts
of a larger life, a more consecrated
manhood, a more devoted discipleship.
The past, let us remember, is dead;
the future IL always alive. 1t holds
aloft In It's strong right hand the norm
ing star of hope and whispers to each
child of man: at is never too late to
mend.'
Let us face the new year with brave
hearts and better determinations,
placing before us as we advance the
cross of Christ, believing that in pro-
portion as we are loyal to this symbol
shall we have strength given us TO en-
dure hardness as good soldiers Of the
Master, patience to suffer without Civ
ing way to despair, sorrow and misfor-
tune, and spiritual courage so that we
can come through every temptation tri-
umphant and unafraid.
