There Is Nothing Transitory.

All is finite in the present; and
even that finite is infinite in its We
locity of fight towards death. But in
God there is nothing finite; but in
God there is nothing transitory; but
in God there can be nothing that tends
to death, therefore, it follows, that
for God there can be no present, the
future is the present of God, and to
the future it is that he sacrifices the
human present. Therefore 1t is that
he works by earthquake. Therefore
1t is that he works by grief. o, deep
is the blowing of earthquake! o, deep
is the blowing of grief! But often.
times less would not suffice for the

earthquake he builds a thousand years
Of pleasant habitations for man. Upon

coins to produce them and give their
names in proper sequence. The
youngster shuffled from n leg to the

SERMONETTE.

This Assyrian general, Holo-
fernes, Is not the first man who
has forgotten manhood and duty
in the presence of a pretty face
and plunged to his ruin.
1t was the lust of the mans
heart which made him fall an
easy prey to the trap which
Judith had set for him.
He who allows base passion to
fill the heart has begun the
downward course which is GER
tain to end in ruin if persisted in.
God has made the world beau
tifuI, he hath nodded the face
and form divine and it was his
purpose that such beauty should
inspire lofty thought and ambi-
ton. Its contemplation should
bring out the best in man. 1t
should turn a mans thoughts to-
ward the pure and good. But
such cannot be where man per-
mits the lower nature to trans
send and rule the higher.
True chastity is not a mere
outward conformity of life to the
moral law. Jesus went deeper
and said that a man must keep
his heart pure. That the lust
of the heart was as bad as the
overt act. AS this test marks
the real state of a man, so it
also sets the boundary line be-
tween the sin conceived and the
sin committed.
1t is the evil thought harbore6
which becomes the evil deed
committed. James says: "Every
man is tempted when he is
drawn away of his own lust and
enticed. Then when lust hath
conceived, it bringeth forth the
sin; and sin when it is finished
bringeth forth death.
"As a man thinketh in his
heart, so is he" Base thought
cannot be harbored and not
change and transform the life.
A veneer of outward rectitude
may fool the world, but the COW
cred sins of the heart cannot be
hid from God. Neither can they
be kept from honeycombing the
inner self until at last like a
fostering sore they break forth
into full view.
"Unto the pure all things are
pure"
The breaking down of the
home life and the nations life
begins when unclean, impure
thought finds Judgment in the
heart and there takes root and
grows to the full fruitage of an
unclean life.
"keep thy heart with all dill
eence, for out of it are the is
sues of life"

H STORY.

THE night was dark, and the way
1 to the valley lay beside the sen
tries and the tents of the coarse,
rough soldiers, but Judith feared not
for had not the great general, Holo-
fernes, given the strictest commands
that her way should be safe whittier
soever she went in and around the
camp. And best of all was not there
the comforting assurance in her own
heart that the God of Isreal was with
her in the desperate undertaking upon
which she had entered?
Two days before she had come into
the camp of the Assyrians after de-
parting from the city of Bethulia, and
each night since then she had passed
out of the camp in the dead of night
to engage in prayer, as she told the
great general.
All the camp had been stirred by
her beauty when she had come thith.

chodoneser, the king of all the earth
And he had kept his word thus far,
thinking that she would fall inev-
itably into his power. And for two
nights now she had passed safely out
from the camp into the valley.
Judith lifted her ayes to heaven as
she and her maid reached a secluded
nook far down the valley, and her
lips moved in prayer, as she besought
God to direct her way to the deliver.
ance of her people.
I'VE cannot, we must not, fall"
she exclaimed, turning to her maid.
Little did Holofernes think when ]
talked with him that l was pleading
for my people and not for him. Yea,
I did tell him the truth when / said
that our nation shall not be punished,
neither can sword prevail against
them, except they sin against their
God. And even o our city is sit
