ABOUT HEAVEN.
Pleasures There Will bc "JuSt About
 ilc Same' as Here,

Says pr. Daniel Steel in Iion's Herald of heaven
 The Bible speaks most frequently ta the sensIhiities of its readers, who must mentally translate the words inc the spiritual ideas. This Is especially fruo of heaven, of which much is said in a general way in Revelation and in Christian literature, as state and place of hlcssodness In the life to Coma. of which it Is not possible for mortals to form any adequate concep- ton, or to receive any precise infor- nation because we have no spiritual dialect. Therefore we are left to con- celvo the joys of heaven to be Just about tho same as the pleasures Of this world. and each ono hopes, when he reads Christ's sayings, Tn my Fa- thcr's house are many mansions" that there will be allotted to him nice brownstone front on Main street in tho residential part of the New Jerusalem, where the aristocracy reside, near the park, with splendid view of the River of Life, and that he will find favorite ompoyments. congenial com- partnerships, and such particular de- lights as he ardently longs for hcrc but never fully realizes. He forgets that this kind of pleasure satates when long continued. and that he has q spiritual appetency that cannot be satisfied with such finite things; that Man has soul of vast desires That burns within with Quenchless
 fires"
 His reason tells him, if he ever stops to reason that the bliss of heav- on must be of an entirely different kind from earthly pleasure, If he Is there to be truly happy and forever happy
