 Best Time For EuIoeies.
 Don't wait until a man is gone to ex- press your sympathy and eulogies. The flowers and kind words will not do him any good then. The world now has too much epitarhy and too little taffy.- Rev Thomas Uzzel. Independent, Den yer.

 Charity.
 If our Christian people had the spirit many coming to the doors ot the bu- reau of charities in these trying days saying, What can we do to help:" as there are saying What can you do to help us:' Rev Willard R. Thorpe. COngregationalist, Chicago.
 Hope of the Moment.
 Heaven is the one hope of the world of mankind. Blot it out, and there would be nothing but the blackness of midnight. Ask the mother as she press es to her bosom the lifeless form of her own precious child what is the hope of the moment. that for which she would not take all the world, and she will say that it is that some day she shall meet this precious child in heaven.-Rey. Len G. Broughton, Baptist, Atlanta. Ga.
 In Conflict With the World.
 The true religion is as much part Of human nature as the law of gravita- tion is part of physical nature. It is unfortunate that we keep thinking of religion as something not natural, something outside ourselves. The man who declines to put himself in his reli- gious thinking in the center of things finds himself doing some very queer things. That sort of person has distort- ed and biased views. Every man who is not profoundly religious is putting himself in conflict with the world We must follow the trend of what Emer- son calls ''the irresistible maturing of the human mind."-Rev Dr. David Mcconnell Steele, Episco?alian. Phila- delphia
 The Universal Need of All Races.
 If Christianity is to be a world re- ligion, it must meet a need that is uni versal among all the peoples-the need of new heart. If the literature of the various nations teaches anything, it teaches the universality of sin. If the sense of sin is universal. then there must be a Saviour, and the old evil heart must become new, pure heart What the world needs, therefore, is a new life. The man who hates needs new heart, so that he can love. The man who has suffered from an enemy and wants to kill the transgressor for his ingratitude needs new heart and magnanimity The man who lives for self needs the new heart of self sacri- flee, and that is what science is trying to compel us to understand The scholars insist that life comes from re-eXisting life. If you boil the water and kill every germ and seal it tightly the scientist will tell you that after |, million million years there will be no iAAS 'iASAN. I i1S tLCoi pl SCll oI lIld HE life has gone to the limbo of exploded superstitions.- Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hills, Consregationalist. Brooklyn
 Gods Plan For Us.
 Gods desires for you reach clear across eternity. His wishes concerning you are not the nasty, impulsive wish es of human beings. but he has plan for your life which he wishes to see fulfilled. and he expects you to help carry out that plan. He intends that your life shall be beautiful in the set ting in which he has placed you You are not where you are altogether by your own efforts. An all wise Provi- dence has placed you there and has :. work for you to do. It may seem diff hcuit task you are called upon to per form; you may think that your sphere Is very narrow one but listen to his voice saying unto you, My grace is sufficient for you" His plan for you has been figured out with great skill. but do you know we sometimes mar Gods plan: We sometimes change the programme the great Master has laid out. l go into an engine room. l see the engine and the machinery
