only have We to cast out the anchoY

only have We to cast out the anchor
OF faith, but the anchor of hope also:
so that when these storm clouds are
upon us, when darkness surrounds
us, when IL seems as though the light
of day would not show itself TO our
vision We have 10 have the hope that
is born OF God, the hope that gives q
happy outlook. IL is so easy 10 be
discouraged and 10 let these expert
ences that are surrounding us damp
en- our ardor. The next is the anchor
of love for our fellow man: Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
This do" With that love God calls
us to service. IL calls us out OF our
selves with the love that makes us
want 10 go out into our city and
wherever We see one who needs us,
ii makes us want 10 give Ourselves 10
that one: and | tell YOU never in
Gods world was there a city that
needed more redeeming love than
does this city of New York and
Brooklyn to-day. l have gone into
homes where the darkness OF despair
was because no love was there. |
have gone into homes where mothers
and fathers have said: None cares
for us; no one will help us.
Don't tell me the world love us, be-
cause We know differently. / tell
you we have to have that love in us
that the Russian proverb says "dwells
in the house of labor" There is
reward for him who loves his fellow
man. Then there is another anchor,
and that is the anchor of prayer. L
care not what a mans work or edu-
cation is, whether he is college bred
or has no education at all, but this
thing / am sure of. and that is, with
out prayer in your heart You cannot
make life worth what God is expecting
Of it, Prayer is our wanting TO get
near to God, wanting To tell God of
our difficulties, our troubles. our per-
pleXities. our successes, our ideas, our
wanting to ask for His strength and
guidance. We have to have this an
chor when things are going wrong,
when the world seems dark and life
is weary. We want TO have this an
chor in God to give us courage TO go
on our way, and if we have not been
doing right to help MS TO return and
through our fellow men serve God.
Let us cast out our four anchors:
our anchor of faith in God and our
fellow men; our anchor of hope in
eternal goodness; our anchor OF love
in universal service: our anchor OF
prayer to God: and in so doing may
the blessing Of God rest with you in
all your labors.

4 Meditation.

"Ye shall receive power after that
the Holy Ghost is come unto YOU"
There can be no acceptable service
without this endowment. Even
Jesus must first be baptized with the
Holy Ghost before He could enter
upon His great mission.
The apostles, who had been in
Christ's school for three years, could
do nothing until they were endowed
with power from on high.
Mr. Moody used TO say that he
would rather break stones on turn
pike than attempt to preach without
the indwelling and power of the
Holy Spirit. The great reason why
some of our young peoples meetings
are such a drag is because its MEM
bers do not seek power from above.
To obtain this power we must
earnestly seek for it in prayer. IF
we being evil know how TO give good
gifts unto your children, how much
more shall your heavenly Father give
the Holy Spirit TO them that ask
Him."
To obtain more power, we must
use the power already bestowed.
GO in this thy might" the angel
said to Gideon-the might of the
promised presence. The Lord be
with thee" AS he went he realized
the presence and power of the AL
mighty.
We must use this power in wit
Messing for Jesus. II am no more in
the world but these are in the
world" We are His representatives.
Let us not misrepresent Him.

Digging a Way to Heaven.

Bless God for the Wilderness;
thank God for the long nights; be
thankful that you have been in the
school of poverty, and have UNDER
gone the searching and testing of
much discipline. Take the right view
Of your trials. You are nearer heav-
en- for the graves you have dug, if
YOU have accepted bereavements in
the right spirit; you are wiser for
the losses you have bravely borne,
you are nobler for all the sacrifices
you have Willingly completed. Sane
tilted affiiction is an angel that never
misses the gate of heaven.-Parker.

party vote would be cast against him.
So, no deception was practiced by the
Republicans Many of them regretted
that 1t was necessary to vote against
Mr.. Bailey. They liked him and would
gladly have supported him if he had
been the regular party candidate; and
they have not gloated over his defeat.
In fact, many have sympathised with
him in his misfortune, and would have
saved him from the humiliation if they
could. He has no just reason to COM
plain of his Republican associates and
friends. On the other hand he has good
cause for indignation toward those
Democrats who deceived him as to the
attitude of their party. Mr.. Bailey and
his Democratic advisers are alone re-
sponsible for his misfortune.

THE YEAR 1907.

The American people have no right
to complain of the business conditions
which prevailed in this country during
the year just closed. Though they had
been enjoying wonderful prosperity for
the nine years previous there was no
abatement during the year 1907. In
spite of the predictions of the pessimists
and the earnest efforts of the calamity
howiers to bring about other conditions.
a wave of prosperity continued to float
over the country during the entire year.
All classes of persons who were en-
gagged in legitimate business or work
did well The farmers, the merchants,
the mechanics and laboring men were
equally prosperous; and the reports
that come from all parts of the country
state that the Christmas trade was as
large as was ever known. This shows
that, notwithstanding the gamblers
panic, " the people generally had plenty
of money and were not afraid to spend
it.
The Richmond Times Dispatch of last
Sunday contained reports from all sec
tons of Virginia;and there was but one
expression in the numerous reports, that
being declaration of remarkable pros
perity, and confidence as to the future.
There are no sound reasons why the
year 1908 shall not be as good or better
than 1907. AS long as labor is constant
ly and proftably employed and the pro-
ducts of the farms are abundant and
command good prices, prosperity will
abide with the people.

The Busy Bee.
New York WORLDLY

The value of s25, 900, 900 placed on the
annual output of honey puts this farm
crop only slightly behind raw cane sug-
ar, which had valuation at the refiner-
les of $2S, 1000 Comparisons with
the output of the sixty-four beet sugar
factories, which have a capacity of 49,
5000 tons of beets daily, may seem
odious. Yet the product of this cod
died and fostered industry-S45, OOO. 900
was less than double that of the busy
hive communities.
The bee in effect pays the interest on
the public debt-$24, 80, 1926. Shall not
the insect which Napoleon made an i'm
perial emblem have some State recog-
milton such as Massachusetts, gives to
the Goldfish in its legislative halls? AS
a matter of face, the products of the
New England fisheries, which have
been the subject of treaties and inter
national conventions and occasionally
raised the spectre of war, amount in
value to only half the bees product.
At least the bee deserves a share in
the national affection which is lavished
on the hen. This Industrious worker
maintained its reputation during the
year by giving poultry products a value

THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION.

That is a delightful mix-up in the
ranks of the Republican party over the
booms of the various would-be Presi-
dents. Aside from the ''favorite sons''
always numerous q few months before
the assembly of the party conventions
there are no less than half dozen
other candidates, who if not taken Sc
riously by others at least consider them
selves eligible. Since the recent en-
phatic statement of President Roose-
welt to the effect that he would strictly
adhere to his post-election pledge of
four years ago the situation instead of
being cleared up has become even more
complicated. Several prospective can
didates, notably Mr.. Cannon, who had
remained silent where there appeared
probability of Mr.. Roosevelt being in
the running, have since come to the
front prepared to make an energetic

nomination is prize worth contending

speak out sincerely that they would be
glad to have such delightful mix
