was good deal of expectation con-

with pronounced success and nowhere
was he more continuously welcomed
than III New York, for he played there
SIN times. Macmillen has a marvellous
facility of style and such absolute re

The sermon was filled with terSe cpl
graInmatic sentences and thrilled the au-
dience again and again. provoking
laughter and then calling into play the
deepest emotions of the soul leaving an
impression long to be remembered rs the
speaker dramatically led up to what he
called the supreme Interrogation of the
soul for the moment: Am I in condition
ana doing ny full duty in aid of this
most important work of life" The de-
pendence of society upon the individual
and the responsibility of the individual
for society. A climax occurred then an
other. and the evangelist was ready and
about turning God TO good account.
''If Mary and Martha had not sent for
Jesus, Lazarus would never haze been

to the Master brought the desired relief

increasingly TO deNOlve upon the Marys
and Marthas to keep alive the tine vir-
tues and the better qualities of life. The
burden. nevertheless. must be shared by
men and the responsibility placed upon
masculine shoulders as well as upon FEM
mime hearts Hindrances are frequently
found to impede the work. but these
must be removed, and the Gospel Sivef'

And it was even SO. In fact the

night. which became more apparent
between the hours of midnight and
morning. At n. NJ. the thermometer

degrees above zero, and at the next

degrees. Then, as is often the case in
