SILVER BELTS SUNDAY SERMON


 What are they?
 Man is a spirit, not body.
 Man is filled with magnificent possibilities
 Man is akin to God.
 Man carries eternity with himself as the acorn carries the oak within itself; as the beam ot hght carries the rainbow within itself.
 The Bible reveals God, man and the one secret that makes the Bible an infinite book.
 The Bible reveals God not only as loving, but as love.
 Love is the essence of His being.
 As the magnet seeks the needle to draw it to itself, so does God seek men. The emmet creep ing over the sand heaps by the seashore knows more about the number of grains ot sand that hind all the oceans of the globe than do we know about the number of worlds in creation; and yet the Bible reveals the God of this infinite uni verse as our all-loving Father.
 Man is a son of God.
 In history we read of the mystery of the man in the iron mask. When the mystery IS finally solved. the man turns out to be the brother of Louis XIV of France. The king, fearing that his throne might be disturbed by his brother, the features of whose face were like his own, had the face of his brother incased in mask of iron. Then he had him shut up in the Bastie for life.
 Like the one in the iron mask, is man, as we see him, in that his divine lineaments are hidden now. But the Bible comes and takes off this mask and shows us man as he really it--a son of God, bearing upon his soul the features of Gods soul.
 GOdliness is mans birthright.
 He is to slough off his physical form in which he takes root and sprouts, and, leaving this be- hind, he is to take on higher spiritual form and live above the reach of time and chance.
 The Bible is book of magnificent morals Its standards are never oiled down into smoothness to suit human selfshness. A man may be a be- ing with shoulders enpurpled with robes of au- thority, but if he be bad man, the Bible, as with judgment axe of lightning, takes off his head as though he were the veriest peasant
 And yet, while the Bible standards of living are never lowered, the spirit of the Bible is one of infinite tenderness toward humanity.
 The Bible melts with pity; it is like great heart thrObbing with sympathy It says to the lost wanderer: "Come home; the door of the old home is still open for you and upon its portals is inscribed welcome"
 The Bible throws the shadow of its redeemino cross along the very edge of the burning mark of perdition
 A Christian experience ilumnes the Bible as the sunrise the landscape.
 Optical instruments, like the microscope anG telescope, give new vision to our natural avos They open up the wonders of Gods handiwork even so does spiritual experience give new vlslon to the soul, opening up the marveIs of tb, blole As often as we look through the kaIeido scope we discover fresh arrangement of color ana new design. The Bible is an infinite ka leldoscope, in which we are always discoverin, some new heavenly beauty. - 'iiS

 Public positions in the northern republic often lead to lucrative positions in the world of busl- ness; diplomats go into the law after winning public notice and accumulate fortunes; secre- taries and assistant secretaries of the treasury have repeatedly been snapped up as heads of trust companies in the large cities; their abili- ties have not always been of the highest, but they had an advertisement, and they were worth much money to their new employers.
 President Harrison on leaving the White House re-entered law practice finding his presi- dential fame a source of profit So also Presi- dent Cleveland after his second term, became connected with the big life insurance companies as a sort of adviser, at a handsome salary. He was not an insurance expert, but his sound sense, honesty, and prestige were what was wanted by the magnates of that branch of business.

of western Canada, with its railroad
lines to carry one to almost the utter

Nothing! He might as well be in any

some want one kind and some another

CONVICTED BY A THERMOMETER
How the Assailants of Scotch Physi
clan Were Tracked.

In connection with the death of DR.
Whitelaw of Kirkintilloeh an interesting
story is told of his early career. Being
called up one night he was walking along
with the messenger when he was set
upon and knocked down in lonely part
of the road.
His pockets were rifed and he was
left lying on the road severely injured.
One of the articles stolen was a
clinical thermometer with which he had
that evening taken the temperature of q
patient. He remembered the tempera-
ture registered, also that he had not
shaken down the mercury before putting
the thermometer back in his pocket; and
he communicated these facts to the DO
lice.
Some time afterward a Thermometer
registering the identical temperature was
discovered in pawnshop in Glasgow
and by this means the police were en-
abied to track the doctors assailants and
to arrest them. - Glasgow Medical
Journal.
