trust in Him on His acting just as you
want Him to act
From the point of view Of strict justice,
there Is just enough ground in almost
every grievance to make ii easy to cher
ish it, provided one is so disposed. None
of US likes to be injured by any one else
Something within smarts under the
blow and We say. This is not lair." But
does that justify the fostering of this
sense of being unjustly treated? The best
thing to do with grievance Is to bury it
out OF sight, to stine 1t before 1t is fully
born, for. depend upon 1t. the nurturing
of 1t will magnify the original offense far
beyond It's due proportions and make
your own life thereafter all t g weaker
and more unhappy.
Think. when disposed to cherish q griev-
ance, whether there may be no one else in
the world who has occasion to feel re-
sentiment toward you. Have you been so
considerate. SO absolutely Scrupulous In
all of your dealings with your fellow
men, that no one has any occasion to feel
sore or wounded with respect to you?
Life ought to be full of confident trust
In God. even though we cannot explain
all His dealings with us and our fellow
men. and life ought to be so full of loving
service for those about us that We shall
have neither time nor disposition to culti-
vate any sense of being injured by others.
Let 1t smart if 1t will for moment. then
bury ii forever. THE PARSON.

country and abroad, but it Is reserved
for this Pan-Presbyterian council to do
honor to the memory OF the great Cen
evan in adequate and comprehensive
fashion. If there Is any aspect of heaven
or earth that Calvanism may be said to
touch. this program includes it; for two
days are to be given over to addresses
upon the man to whom the Presbyterian
and Reformed churches chiefly owe their
genius. 1t was even announced in the
earliest copies of the program that there
would be an address upon ''Calvinism
and the Salvation Of Infants but that
topic was later altered to one more gen
eral. Apparently. though. the most deli
cate and difficult questions in connection
with the reformer's history are not TO be
blinked, for a New York lawyer is to
speak upon Calvin and the Case of
Servetus.'
The questions about which are raging
the hottest theological controversies of
the day are to be debated at the council
Thus, addresses are announced upon Our
Lords Pre-existence, Our Lords
Virgin Birth" "Our Lords Resurrection,
'"The Newer Phases Of Evolution THE
Newer Phases of Theological Training"
1.-The Recent Testimony of Archaeology
to the Scriptures and THE Development
of the Higher Criticism Since the Last
Council
With equal candor the delicate social
questions of the hour are met, and the
council will give consideration to mar
riage and divorce, temperance. Sunday
observance, immigration. church union
and the relation Of the church to the
public school.
In sharp contract with the great mass
conventions which are SO popular with
the church people of America. this one
makes no bid for the attendance of the
crowds but probably what it says next

year hence. For this Is conference

The Man With a Grievance.

About the worst thing that a man can
nurture within his breast is a grievance: !:
but IT is one Of the easiest things to fos-
ter. Weeds grow faster than flowers. and
evil tendencies within US often outstrip
the good. A grievance grows like a snow
ball when the snow Is damp. 1t begins
as little pin prick of resentment aris-
ing from real or fancied injury. 1t ends
as a mountain which shuts out OF view
the smiling landscape beyond 1t. Nur-
ture this viper long enough and you will

and talk OF nothing else. lose sleep that
