tons. He sat down to think

carefully consider what manner of man
was Peabody, who showed such an in
terest in him. He realized that he
would have considerable intercourse
with Peabody in the processes of legis-
lation and finally had to admit to him
self that he did not like the senator
from Pennsylvania. Just what 1t was

the thing to serve them with brown

A New, Complete Heart.

1t is nothing less than character,
nothing less than a new, complete
heart, a fulfilled manhood, that Christ
is trying TO give us. Therefore, we
may be patient, and be sure that the
perfection of His gift cannot be all at
once.
He who enters into Christ enters
into a region Of life and growth
which stretches far away before him.
He steps across the threshold and his
feet are glad with the very touching
of the blessed soil. Christ is so One
that all which He Is ever to be to the
soul He is in some true sense already.
But none the less there is much which
He cannot be until the soul Is more,
and so can take more of the life to
live by.
The world can give you blessings
which will be complete TO you at
once. 1t is able and glad to set forth
for you at the beginning of the feast
the best wine It has. But Christ will
take you, IL you let Him, into His
calm, strong power. and lead you on
to ever richer capacity and ever rich
er blessing, till at last only at the
end of eternity shall your soul be sat
isfled and be sure that 1t has touched
the height and depth OF His great
grace, and say: Now l know Thy
goodness wholly"
