HOPING AGAINST HOPE.

Who against hope believed in hope.
Romans AIS.
The most wretched OF his species Is
the man without hope. He Is more
than wretched. no is inexcusably
criminal. because an offender against
divine law which the apostle en-
phasized I'm his mastery appeal to
the Romans
To hope and 60 hope always Is n COM
mand so stringent that against hope
we must believe I'm hope. The words
OF St Paul suggest picture In which
hope Is portrayed supine and gasping.
while mlnistering faith bends over It
and arouses Il into life and strength
and commanding beauty A miracle
truly this. but within the power OF
religion and attested by reason and
experience.
That such marvel may be per-
formed nay. that II In not beyond
the reach OF any souls solaco un-
speakable IL means that any ono
may bar forever against himself tho
gates OF despair. II IN n trumpet call
for highest courage and achievement.
II implies n command which II un-
uttered by the Creator would pass by
unheedcd hut God Wills II. there
fore II can be obeyed. Though II
calls for fight OF hone against itself.
Il Is not contradiction nor n para
dox. but carried 10 It's ultimate conse-
quences II means triumph. II is uni
versal IN IT'S application. bars no man
from It's sway and eliminates no com
bination OF circumstances. II enJoins
upon one absolute refusal TO surren-
der save 10 the inevitable doom OF us
all
Moreover. II finds n response In
mans heart. "Never say die!" Is
cry as old as the race. All the myth
ologies reflect IT, Christianity con-
socrates It. The Old World felt It's
truth: TO the New Il was given To
understand A. ON sea and land. on
every battle field since the dawn OF
history, has II been heard.
There has never been a mandate
TO despair. No matter what the en-
vironment. how dark the outlook.
over and above all Is the inspiration
OF hope. what mans voice prevails
against the utterance OF faith? When
n man says there is no hope. where Is
MS guarantee Inc physician says.
sThc man will die with the dawn
the man lives yet. A man Is In the
clutches of adversely; he has lost his
all; To- on the fragments OF his for
tune he builds colossal independ-
enCe. -'.-~-
History has not chronicled every
hopeful deed. Ships a-many de-
SPARED Of have come TO port; from
many last ditches' have been un-
furled flags OF victory.
The hope that Paul speaks OF Is not
supine but active. II puts heart In n
man as nothing else does. II Is the
mother Of resurrection. God the au-
thor and finisher Of hope be praised,
For from Him comes the confidence
which says: There is way out; IL
/ cannot find II | will make It,"
This hope. heaven descended, APP
proved by reason and sanctioned by
experience. cannot be bafiied. To
hope against hope Is the basis OF char
acter The truest test OF a man Is to-
hope against hope and TO pluck sue
cess out OF the very heart OF failure
